Xu Yi nodded thoughtfully, "Hmm. Miss Gu is a woman of her word. She wouldn't lie to me. ...Hehe, that's good. It's good that you're not angry anymore."
Hearing that her tone had returned to normal and she had stopped crying and making a fuss, Gu Yueyue truly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, as Xu Yi uttered her next sentence, she realized that she had let her breath away too soon.
Xu Yi: "Since you're not angry anymore, when will Miss Gu marry me?"
"..." Gu Yueyue didn't dare to look up at other people's expressions and subconsciously reached out to cover Xu Yi's mouth as he talked nonsense.
At this moment, the dining table was filled with gasps of surprise.
Ma Youcai was also slightly drunk. He stood up, looked the two of them over, clapped his hands, and said, "Great! They're a good match! Go get married!"
He pulled out the coin Xu Yi had given him earlier from his pocket and slammed it on the table with a flourish, "This is my wedding gift!"
Gu Yueyue was both amused and exasperated. She realized that agreeing to host this housewarming party for Xiao Ye was a mistake, and inviting Ma Youcai over to join in the fun was the worst decision she had ever made.
Hearing Ma Youcai's words, Xu Yi smiled and her eyes narrowed. She stretched out her arm to reach for the one yuan. However, Gu Yueyue was holding her too tightly, so she pried Gu Yueyue's hands off and looked at her reproachfully, "Get married! Get married! Let's get married soon."
Gu Yueyue felt a headache coming on. "We're not getting married."
"Why?" Xu Yi was hurt, and her expression immediately turned aggrieved. Before Gu Yueyue could think of any nice words to coax her, she dug out some information from the depths of her memory and suddenly realized, saying to Gu Yueyue, "Is it because last time you forced me to sleep with you, and I not only refused you but also hit you, making you feel disappointed in me?"
Not bad, she spoke quite logically, but her words made Gu Yueyue feel like she was about to be exorcised on the spot.
Her lifelong reputation is ruined.
Everyone gasped again, and when they looked at Gu Yueyue and Xu Yi, they both had expressions that said, "Don't judge a book by its cover."
The dinner table was noisy. Xiao Ye, who was usually very clever, was now a bit tipsy and asked stupidly, "Sis, what's wrong with you? I told you to take care of a younger sister, not to lay a hand on your own people."
Aunt Zhao patted Xiao Ye's arm: "What kind of nonsense is this, a girl?"
Only Liu Bai remained clear-headed and didn't join in the nonsense.
He helped Ma Youcai, who was swaying as he stood up, and said to Gu Yueyue, "Take her to rest. She's so drunk she can't eat anything. I'll call a driver to take me and Lao Ma home later, don't worry."
Gu Yueyue was relieved that there was someone sober to help her at this time, and thanked Liu Bai.
Xu Yi's mouth was covered again, and she could hardly breathe. She tried to bite the thing blocking her breathing, but she couldn't bite her palm at all. She stuck out her tongue and tried to push the bad thing blocking her breathing away.
Gu Yueyue was stunned for a moment before realizing what was happening, and flung her hand away as if she had been electrocuted.
Xu Yi was able to breathe normally and proudly snuggled up to Gu Yueyue's ear, "You naughty thing, you still want to bully me? Dream on."
Gu Yueyue was speechless. She couldn't help but laugh and cry as she pinched her ear. The soft touch completely dissipated her already little temper.
Why is she arguing with a drunk person? Gu Yueyue said reproachfully, "Who's the bad guy here? Who's bullying whom?"
Xu Yi didn't reply. She frowned, hugged Gu Yueyue tightly, and her drowsy consciousness could no longer support her to continue speaking. She just wanted to find a good place to get a good night's sleep.
Zhao's mother and Xiao Ye got up and helped Gu Yueyue take Xu Yi back to her room.
Gu Yueyue struggled to get Xu Yi to bed, then turned to Xiao Ye and Zhao's mother and said, "I see you didn't eat much just now. I'll take care of Xiao Xu. You two go and eat something else."
Worried that she wouldn't be able to handle it all by herself, Zhao's mother, with her considerable experience, said, "People who have had too much to drink are very reckless. Let me help you."
"No, no need," Gu Yueyue quickly refused.
Zhao's mother had just recovered, and they had originally invited her to dinner, so how could they let her help take care of the younger generation? Gu Yueyue smiled and said, "I can manage here. I saw that Xiaoxiao was pushed off the table after only a couple of bites. Could you please help me take care of Xiaoxiao?"
Taking care of Xiaoxiao is fine; that girl is incredibly well-behaved when eating.
When Xu Yi pushed her off the table, she was holding two chicken legs and eating them with gusto. She was happily munching on them while standing by the table, completely unconcerned about her surroundings, as long as she had food in her hands.
After Zhao's mother left, Gu Yueyue persuaded Xiao Ye to leave as well.
Gu Yueyue glanced at Xu Yi, who was lying on the bed with a furrowed brow, and smiled helplessly, "I really can't do anything with you."
She wiped Xu Yi's face and the wine that had dripped down her cheek from drinking too fast. Gu Yueyue sighed and helped her take off her clothes, wanting to wipe it off for her.
Just as I unbuttoned one button, the nanny brought over a bowl of hangover soup.
Gu Yueyue took it and thanked her, "Thank you for your help. Let's go out and eat something else, everyone was upset and didn't get to eat properly."
The nanny was persuaded to leave. Gu Yueyue thought she would first feed her some hangover soup, then help her change her clothes so that she could sleep more comfortably at night.
The small spoon was brought to Xu Yi's lips. Xu Yi took a sip and found it tasted strange. She turned her face away unhappily.
"Drink a little, so you won't feel uncomfortable when you wake up tomorrow." Gu Yueyue helped her up and tried to feed her some, but Xu Yi pushed her away.
The jumbled memories resurfaced in Xu Yi's mind. She stubbornly pushed it away, muttering, "I won't drink it if you didn't feed it to me."
Hearing her words and looking at the spoon in her hand, Gu Yueyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Isn't this feeding me?"
"That's not how you feed me. You didn't feed me like this last time. I won't drink it!" Xu Yi was more stubborn than a donkey on strike in the production team.
She struggled to her feet, nearly knocking over the bowl of hangover soup. Startled, Gu Yueyue quickly put the bowl down, secretly thinking that she should keep more hangover medicine at Xiao Xu's house in the future, as these kinds of soups and broths were too troublesome.
"Okay, okay, I won't drink it." Gu Yueyue put down the bowl and spoon, wanting Xu Yi to get a good night's sleep.
As a result, Xu Yi hooked her arm around his neck, reached out and took the bowl of soup, which was lukewarm, and brought it to her lips.
Gu Yueyue was amazed that she had taken the initiative to drink the soup, and the next second her brain went blank.
The soft texture covering her lips, the sweet and sour broth soaking into her taste buds, triggered a series of heart-pounding commands in her brain.
She is not a germaphobe. In special circumstances during filming, there have been kissing scenes, but she always felt a little uncomfortable and repulsed before and after filming.
But the feeling now is different. In addition to my brain going on strike and my heart eagerly trying to express its ability to usurp the throne through its activity level, even my breathing is being guided by another person.
The hangover soup was long gone, and what followed was a soft, moist intruder, playfully and happily surveying its new territory, revisiting every new and familiar place.
Gu Yueyue instinctively tried to defend herself, but found that after her brain shut down, her body became uncontrollable. She failed to defend herself and instead began to dance with the enemy.
After a while, Gu Yueyue's body ran out of oxygen. Seeing that her heart was beating so hard that it would explode if left unchecked, her brain quickly regained control.
Gu Yueyue reached out and pushed Xu Yi away, her eyes moist and red. She turned her face away, not daring to look at her.
Xu Yi, however, became arrogant.
"Hey. Got it?" Xu Yi reached out and touched the lips that she had just teased, pressing them down slightly. "You used to tease me like this."
Gu Yueyue's eyes shifted slightly as she analyzed the meaning behind Xu Yi's words.
Xu Yi was too drunk to notice Gu Yueyue's change in expression, and instead felt a sense of satisfaction at having avenged her.
"I told you that one day I would get my revenge on them all!" Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Yi laughed even more smugly, "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you scared?"
Gu Yueyue slapped her hand away and then pushed her shoulder. Xu Yi lay down with the force and obediently raised her hands above her head.
"Shall we move on to the next step? Come on. I won't refuse you this time, I promise I'll be very good." Xu Yi lay down, looking incredibly adorable and obedient.
Gu Yueyue was tempted and reached out to unbutton the second button of her dress. Her fair and smooth collarbone came into view, followed by the undulating curves of her breasts. Gu Yueyue's fingertips touched the third button, and then she suddenly stopped.
Good heavens, what is she doing?!
Gu Yueyue recoiled as if she had been electrocuted, never imagining that she would be seduced by beauty, especially when the other person was drunk.
Gu Yueyue turned the air conditioner temperature up a little, pulled the air conditioner blanket over Xu Yi, and then fled as if escaping.
Xu Yi raised her head slightly, looked at the closed door, and muttered in confusion, "Why is it you who ran away this time?"
Xu Yi didn't know whether she should get up and chase after him, and before her brain could make a decision, she drifted off to sleep.
Gu Yueyue took a while to catch her breath before she heard a noise coming from the living room, so she rushed over to check.
Ma Youcai was looking for Xu Yi to drink with when Liu Bai grabbed him and carried him down.
Ma Youcai cursed, "What are you doing? I'm a married man! If you don't let go, I'm going to scream!"
Upon hearing his words, Liu Bai got goosebumps all over his body. He quickly let go, but Ma Youcai then shouted Xu Yi's name, "Come on! Keep drinking!" However, he ran to the balcony, which startled Liu Bai, who rushed over and hugged him again.
Ma Youcai, a man in his forties with a receding hairline, a shiny bald head, and a slightly overweight physique, was terrified by Liu Bai.
Liu Bai tried his best but couldn't completely hug his big belly, and after being hugged by Liu Bai, he suddenly screamed in terror.
"What do you want to do to me? I knew you had ulterior motives. Let me tell you, I'm a married man. Even if you try to force yourself on me today, I'd rather die than submit!"
"Holy shit! Ma Youcai, stop dreaming!" Liu Bai was so disgusted he almost threw up.
Ono took out his phone to record a video and laughed, "This has to be shown to Sister Ma, to make her feel touched that Director Ma has remained chaste for her, hahaha, I'm going to laugh myself to death!"
Gu Yueyue came over and said disapprovingly to Xiao Ye, "Director Ma is drunk, what are you still recording here for?"
Ono touched his nose guiltily and was about to put his phone away when Gu Yueyue said, "Quickly make a video call to your sister-in-law and ask her to persuade Director Ma."
A note from the author:
Ono: Sis, I thought I was bad enough.
Thank you to all the little angels who voted for me or watered my plants with nutrient solution between 2022-01-15 20:55:13 and 2022-01-16 13:58:34!

Thank you so much for your support! I will continue to work hard!
Chapter 54
After the video call, Sister-in-law Ma was so angry that she rushed over from her parents' home that very night.
When she arrived, Ma Youcai was already asleep on the sofa.
Liu Bai couldn't handle Ma Youcai. Fearing that Ma Youcai, a grown man, would get up in the middle of the night and cause trouble, scaring the group of old and young people in the house, he took two ropes and tied Ma Youcai's hands and feet before leaving.
After all, Xu Yi, the only fighting force, might be even more drunk than Ma Youcai.
Xu Yi woke up groggily the next morning. She had some memory loss and tried very hard but couldn't remember what she had done the night before.
When she came out, only Ono and Xiaoxiao were there. Ono was sitting on the sofa, holding her phone and laughing, while Xiaoxiao was sitting next to her playing with Lego bricks.
Xu Yi rubbed his sore head; it seemed that even a hangover had a significant impact on cultivators.
"Where is Teacher Gu?" Xu Yi asked Xiao Ye.
Ono was still watching the video she had recorded halfway through last night, and she was almost laughing herself to death again today. When Xu Yi asked her a question, she didn't even look up and said, "She went to visit her mother."
Xu Yi understood. After washing up, she sat down with Xiao Xiao in her arms.
"Xiaoxiao, what happened last night?" Xu Yi asked her softly, feeling like she had forgotten something important.
Xiao Xiao raised her little face, frowned, and thought, "I don't know."
