Free Web NovelChapter 1081: Chapter 1081: It’s Really Nice That You Forgot Everything (1)
She went back to the Golden Bay Villa with Bai Chenyao. Since on the way back his expression was even darker and more indifferent than usual, Tian Tian leaned against his shoulder and very obediently kept quiet.
She also wanted to know why Bai Chenyao’s relationship with his own father was so stiff, to the point that sometimes it felt like they were enemies.
But if Bai Chenyao didn’t say anything, and she asked, he wasn’t the type who would answer just because you asked.
Might as well just stay by his side quietly like this.
After they arrived at the villa, Bai Chenyao was the first to get out of the car.
By the time Tian Tian returned to the living room and looked around, she didn’t see any sign of Bai Chenyao.
Instead, Nanny Zhang came out of the kitchen and pointed upstairs.
Tian Tian smiled and nodded. Without even bothering to take off her clothes, she glanced around and frowned.
"Nanny Zhang, do we have any wine at home?"
Nanny Zhang smiled and nodded. "Madam, please wait a moment, I’ll go get it right away!"

When she went back to the master bedroom on the second floor and pushed the door open, Tian Tian took a look around and didn’t find Bai Chenyao in the bedroom. Feeling somewhat puzzled and worried, she quickly went into the bathroom.
She checked both bathrooms, and still didn’t see any trace of Bai Chenyao.
Tian Tian started to panic a little. Just as she was about to call out loudly, she turned around and saw a tall, lean figure standing out on the balcony outside the bedroom.
He was facing away from the bedroom, dressed in a black suit, like thick ink in the night, blending into the endless darkness.
He just stood there so quietly, like a flawless statue—gorgeous, noble, yet carrying a vague sense of loneliness and sorrow.
The "A Yao" that was about to slip out of Tian Tian’s mouth was swallowed back down on instinct.
She lowered her head and glanced at the bottle of red wine twisted in her hand, her eyes flickering.
She turned around and walked over to the cabinet beside her, lowered her head for a quick scan, and sure enough, saw wine glasses in the sterilizer.
She opened the bottle of red, poured two glasses, then carried both glasses out onto the balcony, handing one to Bai Chenyao.
"Drink a little?"
With his expression icy cold, Bai Chenyao slanted a glance at Tian Tian. Even though she was acting like she didn’t know anything, the concern and worry in her eyes were far too obvious.
Seeing that look on Tian Tian’s face, a hint of astonishment flashed in Bai Chenyao’s eyes.
Worried?
Concerned?
If it were any other time, he’d definitely be pleased. Even if he didn’t show it, he’d at least feel pleased inside.
But right now...
Tian Tian was worried that he felt upset because of the stiff, hostile situation with Bai Xijing?
Bai Chenyao found it somewhat funny. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Tian Tian lightly clink her glass against his.
"Bottoms up first, to show respect!"
Bai Chenyao: "..."
Watching Tian Tian tilt her head back and pour all the red wine straight down her throat, the look in Bai Chenyao’s eyes abruptly changed.
Red wine, drunk like plain water?
Ha!
Only a little dummy like Tian Tian could pull something like that off!
Because seeing Bai Xijing and Su Yue had left him feeling irritable, his mood suddenly eased thanks to Tian Tian’s adorably clueless move.
He curved his lips slightly, his gaze deep as he watched Tian Tian, who had downed the whole glass in one gulp and was now coughing from being choked.
"Red wine is meant to be savored slowly."
Coughing, Tian Tian still managed to ask him:
"Then should we switch to beer?"
Bai Chenyao shook his head, his voice low.
"I only drink red wine."
Tian Tian very unladylike rolled her eyes. Only drinks red wine—what a lofty, high-class answer. Totally that overbearing President vibe!
