"I just want to taste what it’s like to be drunk." Ah Chuan raised his hand: "Give me the most expensive drink."
Qingli no longer stopped him, just sat quietly next to him, watching him drink one glass after another.
Wasn’t she waiting for this opportunity? It’s even better if he’s drunk.
By the end of the night, Ah Chuan was so drunk that he was unconscious. Qingli carried him out.
On the way, Luo Xuan called.
It wasn’t until Qingli helped Ah Chuan outside that she took his mobile phone from his pocket.
Seeing the note on it, Qingli definitively called back.
"Brother-in-law, where are you? Mom is sick again; you need to come quickly." Luo Xuan poured out everything before Ah Chuan could speak.
"Who is your brother-in-law?" Qingli asked knowingly.
The unfamiliar female voice made Luo Xuan instantly alert: "Who are you?"
He doubted whether he had dialed the wrong number, so he carefully checked the number again, away from his ear.
He hadn’t dialed wrong - this was indeed Ah Chuan’s number. Who was the woman on the other end, then?
Why was his brother-in-law with someone else so late at night?
"This is my boyfriend’s phone. You’re looking for him, and you’re asking me who I am?" Qingli continued to provoke Luo Xuan.
"How is that possible? You’re talking nonsense, this is clearly my brother-in-law’s phone!" Luo Xuan immediately raised his voice.
"Who is talking nonsense? Just ask your sister when you get home, right? I think your sister has been acting strange lately. Can’t you tell?"
"My boyfriend just pitied you and your sister and couldn’t bear to tell you the truth. From now on, don’t bother him anymore."
Qingli didn’t give Luo Xuan a chance to speak and immediately hung up after she finished speaking.
Luo Xuan was so angry that he wanted to smash his phone, but he was afraid he would break it - even a cheap phone would still cost several hundred to a thousand bucks.
But he felt a surge of anger in his heart. If he didn’t vent it, he wouldn’t feel at ease. So, in the end, he just fiercely punched the wall several times.
No wonder his sister and brother-in-law were having issues. No wonder his sister’s attitude towards his brother-in-law was so strange recently.
So that’s how it was.
Luo Xuan went back to the ward, squatting in front of Luo Qi.
Her face was pale, and the dark circles under her eyes couldn’t be concealed by any high-quality concealer.
Luo Xuan’s face was full of self-blame. He had actually not noticed it and even thought his sister was in the wrong by treating her husband in that way.
Lying on the chair and feeling extremely uncomfortable, Luo Qi woke up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Luo Xuan staring at her fixedly, his eyes looking frighteningly dark in the dim light.
Luo Xuan startled her: "Why aren’t you going? What are you standing here for? To scare me?"
Why didn’t she say anything? Why was she carrying everything by herself? Luo Xuan really wanted to confront her loudly but didn’t know how to phrase it.
He knew that his sister was the pillar of their family, and she had been striving to create a better life for him and their mother.
She didn’t tell them because she didn’t want them to worry.
"No, I just want to spend more time with my sister." Luo Xuan reached out and hugged Luo Qi.
Luo Qi didn’t think much of it. Luo Xuan always depended on her and would stick to her whenever he had the chance - she was already used to it.
"Silly boy, it’s very late. Hurry back. I’m here; that’s enough."
Luo Xuan really wanted to tell her that he knew everything and there was no need to hide anything anymore. However, when the words came to his lips, he couldn’t utter anything in the end, so he just nodded.
"Sister, you should rest early. I’ll come over early tomorrow."
Luo Qi urged him, "Go quickly! Don’t linger here and be in the
