Chapter 367: Too Late
However, Yun Ting was not wrong either!
He just did not like her. He did not do anything wrong.
She, Fu Sisi, had the right to like Yun Ting, and Yun Ting had the right to dislike her.
A lot of things were relative. Moreover, compared to Chu Sihan’s actions, she felt that Yun Ting was already very tolerant of her.
When Chu Sihan became the top scholar, there were countless women who wanted to confess their feelings to him. Some gave him handkerchiefs directly, some confessed their feelings in front of him, and some asked a matchmaker to go to the Prime Minister’s Mansion to try and get paired up with him.
These included princesses and daughters of officials.
However, Chu Sihan did not take a liking to any of them. Moreover, he turned a blind eye and left.
As for the matchmaker, when her grandmother saw Chu Sihan’s expressionless face, she knew that he was not interested in them. Hence, she automatically rejected them for him.
In comparison, although Yun Ting did not like her, he did not have much of a reaction to her pestering. At most, he frowned unhappily.
Or, he avoided her when he saw her.
Sometimes, Fu Sisi did not quite understand what Yun Ting’s thoughts of her were.
“Ah… He seems to be drunk.”
Yun Ting’s eyes were unfocused, and he seemed to have not heard Yu Linglong’s scolding. He continued drinking gloomily.
Shi Yi and Chu Sihan, who had drunk with him before, understood that once Yun Ting did not make a sound when he drank, it meant that he was drunk.
“Drunk?”
Yu Linglong sneered. “You’re pretending, right? Did you deliberately keep quiet because you heard me speak the truth? Huh?”
“You’re drunk too!”
Fu Xianyun felt a headache.
Chu Sihan sized them up and said lightly, “Brother Shi, bring Brother Yun back to rest first.”
This alcohol was so strong that even if Yun Ting could hold his liquor well, he would not last long.
Shi Yi nodded slightly. He stood up and was about to pull Yun Ting up when he shook him off.
“I’m not drunk.”
Yun Ting spoke faintly.
He was drunk, but sober.
His body was a bit dizzy, but his head was very clear.
He suddenly looked up and stared at Fu Sisi. He did not speak for a long time.
Fu Sisi blushed under his burning gaze.
She retracted her gaze and said softly, “This wine is strong, you… drink less!”
“Okay!”
Yun Ting put down the wine glass in his hand and looked up at her in a daze.
Yu Linglong stood in front of Fu Sisi and sneered. “What are you looking at? It’s too late!”
Too late?
Yun Ting retracted his gaze indifferently. He wanted to get up expressionlessly, but the moment he did, his body softened and he sat back in his chair.
Shi Yi said kindly, “Brother Yun, where do you want to go? I’ll help you there.”
“Back to the inn.”
Yun Ting tried his best to open his eyes, but they seemed heavy.
He could not lose face in front of Fu Sisi. He wanted to return to the inn.
“Alright, let’s return to the inn.”
Shi Yi placed his arm on his shoulder and helped him up.
Fu Sisi stood up worriedly when she heard Shi Yi say, “I’ll send Brother Yun back first. Drink slowly. See you later.”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly. “Be careful on the way.”
Shi Yi nodded.
The group stood up and sent the two of them to the door. They watched as they boarded the carriage and left before returning to their original seats.
Fu Shuo was already asleep, and Fu Xianyun was hugging him. Yu Linglong looked a bit groggy, and her face was very red.
It seemed like she was drunk.
After Fu Sisi returned to her seat, she kept her head lowered and did not speak.
Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng did not say anything. They only asked someone to prepare a carriage.
