“…”
He sighed and looked down at Ji Qingqing who was sleeping soundly in his arms. A terrible headache was forming.
Based on Aunt Pei’s gossiping speed, everyone in the villa will know about this by the time Ji Qingqing woke up. It was not a big deal if they gossip about this because they were husband and wife. This was what a normal couple would do.
However, how will he explain this when Ji Qingqing woke up and heard about what he did to her while she was asleep?
He could feel Ji Qingqing calmly breathing next to him. Her hands and feet that were wrapped around him gradually loosened as she fell into a deep slumber. Lu Lixing tightened his hold around Ji Qingqing’s waist as he recalled the story that Ji Qingqing had told him while she was drunk.
She sent her family 300,000 yuan a month and her younger brother was addicted to gambling. Her entire family depended on her to support them.
He agreed with what she had said. She had already done too much for her family, she owed them nothing by now. He believed that there was nothing wrong if Ji Qingqing cut ties with her greedy family.
Lu Lixing didn’t have a close relationship with his parents because they had always been busy. After his parents died, he had been raised by Old Lu. Old Lu treated him very well and made sure that he lacked nothing. As a result, he can’t relate to Ji Qingqing’s dilemma because he never really had a family.
He closed his eyes and recalled what happened earlier in the car. He remembered the heartbreaking expression on Ji Qingqing’s face when she mentioned her family. He also remembered the confused expression on her face when she mistook him for another man.
Who was Wu Yanzu?

It was already dark when Ji Qingqing finally woke up and opened her eyes. The moment she woke up, she immediately felt the consequences of overindulging on wine.
——She had a splitting headache.
Even though she opened her eyes, she continued laying on her bed. Her mind was in a trance and she couldn’t get rid of the splitting headache. Ji Qingqing forced herself to sit up at the bedside. She reached around for her phone and checked the time on her phone. It was now half-past nine.
The only source of light in the room was the two lamps stationed beside the large bed. She was the only person in the room. The light from the lamp was not bright, so she was unable to see much when she looked around.
Ji Qingqing patted her forehead lightly.
She had taken a very long nap. The splitting headache reminded her that she shouldn’t overindulge in wine in the future.
She staggered out of bed and turned on the light. The bright light momentarily blinded her eyes. Ji Qingqing had no strength in her legs, so she had to hold onto the wall as she wobbled towards the bathroom. She still felt very nauseated and ill, but after she washed her face with cold water in the bathroom, she felt much soberer.
Lu Lixing walked into the room and glanced at Ji Qingqing who was in the bathroom. He calmly stood outside the bathroom while he waited for her to come out.
“Do you remember what you did when you were drunk?”
Ji Qingqing was about to head out of the bathroom when she froze. She immediately detected that there was something wrong with his tone, so she subconsciously took a step back from the bathroom door.
“Come out.”
Ji Qingqing smiled sweetly and came out of the bathroom.
“Hub…” As soon as she came out of the bathroom, Ji Qingqing’s gaze was instantly attracted to the very obvious teeth mark at the corner of Lu Lixing’s mouth.
It was a shocking sight.
Ji Qingqing was shocked by the teeth marks and suddenly became somewhat anxious.
She carefully looked at the teeth marks at the corner of his mouth. It seemed like he was injured not too long ago since the injury didn’t even have the time to scab over.
The Lu Family didn’t own cats or dogs, so who could’ve left those teeth marks on Lu Lixing’s mouth?
When she saw him this afternoon, he didn’t have any teeth marks on his mouth. Only a few hours had passed since then…
Ji Qingqing searched through her memories; she tried to recall what she had done after she was drunk. But she could only remember up to the part where she was gorging herself with wine because she liked the taste of it.
What happened after that?
What did she do after that?
Ji Qingqing’s mind drew a blank.
When she saw the gloomy expression on Lu Lixing’s face, she felt somewhat restless.
She had seen people do some questionable things after getting drunk. There was nothing a drunk person can’t do. However, this was the first time she had gotten drunk, so she had no idea what kind of things she would do while she was drunk. She peeked at the teeth marks again. Could it be that she was the one who left the teeth mark on the corner of Lu Lixing’s mouth?
