"I must have been mistaken." There was a twinkle in Lu Liangwei's eyes. She pulled Chu Jiu to sit in front of the table. "Hurry up and have so food, Jiu. You shouldn't go hungry." At that point, she suddenly said, "I should be calling you sister-in-law instead."
Chu Jiu said with slight exasperation, "Just call by my na."
Lin Qingyuan joined them at the table. She leaned her chin against her hand, saying with a slight lancholy, "It isn't that great to be married. I can't go anywhere."
"The way you're describing it is as though you had always been running around before being married." Lu Liangwei darted a look at her. "If you have any complaints against Long Xuan, I would suggest you bring it up with him. Don't influence Jiu. She has just gotten married and should be in her honeymoon phase with my big brother."
Lin Qingyuan shut her mouth in embarrassnt.
Lu Liangwei placed so food into Chu Jiu's bowl and, when she saw Lin Qingyuan looking a little bored sitting there, she picked up the bottle of wine on the table to pour so for Lin Qingyuan. "Nothing can't be resolved with the help of so wine. If there is sothing on your mind, you should have a few cups."
Lin Qingyuan paused. "I don't drink."
"You don't drink or you won't drink?" Lu Liangwei darted her a look of slight disdain and later poured a cup for Chu Jiu. "Have so too, Jiu." After that, she poured herself a cup as well. "Co on, we'll drink to our heart's content."
Chu Jiu looked at the cup in front of her and glanced at Lu Liangwei.
She knew very well how Weiwei could not handle her liquor, but Lin Qingyuan had no idea. Lu Liangwei's words encouraged Lin Qingyuan and she lost all inhibitions. Lin Qingyuan picked up her cup and gulped the wine down.
There was a twinkle in Lu Liangwei's eyes as she filled up Lin Qingyuan's cup again.
Lin Qingyuan got a little dizzy after two cups of wine and began pouring her heart out to them.
Her complaints were all about Long Xuan.
Long Xuan, who was drinking in the front courtyard, suddenly found his nose ticklish for so reason, and sneezed.
Lu Liangwei only poured two cups of wine for Lin Qingyuan, but Lin Qingyuan began enjoying it and ended up finishing the entire bottle.
Lu Liangwei was impressed and said to Chu Jiu, "I had no idea that Qingyuan could drink."
Chu Jiu stopped eating after having so food and placed her chopsticks down. "We can't let her drink anymore. She's about to get drunk."
"It's too late. She's already drunk." Lu Liangwei stood up as she said this and winked at Chu Jiu. "My big brother would be here soon. Have a good rest. I'll help Lin Qingyuan out of here."
Chu Jiu began to feel a little nervous upon learning that Lu Tingchen would be back soon. When she saw Lu Liangwei about to help Lin Qingyuan out, she quickly took a few steps forward and tugged at Lu Liangwei's sleeve. "Weiwei, I…"
Lu Liangwei burst out laughing when she saw how helpless Chu Jiu looked. "There's nothing to be afraid of. My big brother isn't so ferocious beast. Besides, you've both gotten married officially and are now husband and wife. It's a done deal between the both of you. Even if anything happens, it's only natural."
Chu Jiu had been feeling nervous already, and when she heard Lu Liangwei's words, she got even more antsy. She grabbed onto Lu Liangwei's sleeve, refusing to let go.
Lu Liangwei teased, "You aren't asking to stay back to watch you have your wedding night, are you? Even if you're okay with that, my big brother won't feel the sa way. He will definitely kick out when he returns."
Lu Liangwei laughed out loud and leaned in close to Chu Jiu, saying in a low voice, "Don't worry. My big brother isn't a coarse person. He will treat you gently. You shouldn't feel so nervous."
Chu Jiu, "…"
"You should go back. I need to take this little troublemaker away from here." Lu Liangwei waved her off and helped the drunk and unsteady Lin Qingyuan out of the bridal chamber.
Chu Jiu could only watch as they left. The doors to the bridal chamber closed and she began to get uneasy.
She had not thought about anything else beyond today when Weiwei and Lin Qingyuan were accompanying her inside the room.
The room was now silent and as the night got darker, Chu Jiu felt even more nervous.
She looked toward the window and the thought of escaping suddenly popped into her mind.
