A good night’s dream.
Ran Xiangsi didn’t get up very early. Last night was probably the first time in her life that she got drunk.
She opened her eyes in a daze, staring blankly at the ceiling for a long time before slowly sitting up.
She looked around; there was no one else, and she was lying alone in the big bed.
Ran Xiangsi looked down at herself and found she was still wrapped in the same bath towel from yesterday.
Instinctively, she grabbed the quilt and covered her chest, remembering everything that happened yesterday.
She...she...was still so embarrassed!
She actually got drunk; it was really too embarrassing!
She only had two glasses, come on! Her alcohol tolerance was really terrible...
But, no matter what, Xing Chen...in the end, was gentlemanly enough.
So close, so close... Ran Xiangsi blinked her eyes and turned to get out of bed.
With a casual glance, she saw a neatly folded dress on the bedside table.
Startled, Ran Xiangsi took it and looked at it. Was it for her to wear?
Did Xing Chen bring it?
Only he knew she didn’t have clothes to wear...
Unexpectedly, he also had such a warm side?
Ran Xiangsi spread out the dress, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
He...how could he be so good...
With a warm feeling in her heart, Ran Xiangsi carefully put on the dress and stood in front of the mirror, looking left and right.
"Hmm, it fits very well, the color is nice too, not flashy. It truly shows God Xing’s taste!"
Ran Xiangsi happily hummed a little tune and even did a delicate hairstyle and put on a bit of light makeup. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet
After dressing up, she then cheerfully went downstairs.
The living room was empty, with only two servants busy in the kitchen.
She didn’t see Xiahou Xiu Yun, nor Xing Chen.
Ran Xiangsi felt a bit disappointed since she wanted to see Xing Chen...
The smile on her face instantly disappeared. She walked out of the living room, ready to go about her work.
As soon as she got to the door, she saw someone napping on the old rattan chair in the courtyard ahead.
Upon closer inspection, that tall figure, serene demeanor, and handsome face, wasn’t that Xing Chen?
He didn’t go to work but was instead lounging there?
Realizing this, Ran Xiangsi immediately smiled again, slowed her footsteps, and slowly approached Xing Chen, who was resting with his eyes closed.
Behind her, Housekeeper Wu just happened to see Ran Xiangsi’s back and intended to call her, "Young Madam..."
"Shh!" Housekeeper Wu’s words were interrupted.
Without knowing where she came from, Xiahou Xiu Yun hurried over and said, "Old Wu, if there’s something, you can tell me. We should give the young couple more space. Unless it’s important, don’t disturb them in the future, okay?"
Housekeeper Wu paused and quickly nodded, "I understand, Madam. A friend of Young Madam called just now, so..."
"A friend? What friend? Male or female?"
"It’s the young lady of the Lou Family. She said she wanted to invite Young Madam to the Lou Family as a guest," Housekeeper Wu replied respectfully.
"That two-faced woman?" Xiahou Xiu Yun quickly reacted, her brows slightly furrowed, and then she said, "Call her back and say that in a few days, our families will gather together."
"Yes, Madam," the housekeeper responded.
"Hmm, you can go now. Tell the kitchen to stew more tonic today, look at how tired my Chen’er looks. Resting all morning, it seems he was exhausted last night..."
