Chapter 1370: Chapter 785: Brazen and Flamboyant, Restless Hearts After Drunkenness (Part 2)

Perhaps it was the sudden downpour earlier, with the windows and doors tightly shut, the air inside the room was stagnant, already feeling a bit stuffy. She had also drunk quite a bit; the blanket that was covering her had already been kicked off, and her long skirt, reaching her ankles, had slipped up to her thighs...

Bai Shengxue’s skin, contrasted with the black dress, created a striking visual impact.

Jiang Chengsi gulped and walked over to pull the blanket up, directly covering her body.

"Mmm..." Si Qingxiao felt uncomfortably hot; on the edge of the bed, a warm sensation coursed through her body, slowly waking her up...

She wasn’t excessively drunk; it was just that she drank very rarely. During the final round of toasting, she drank too hastily, and the alcohol hit her suddenly, making her fall into a deep slumber.

The soundproofing of the Jiang Mansion wasn’t all that great, and earlier there had been the sound of a child crying, which vaguely stirred her awake.

It had been four or five hours since she drank, and most of the alcohol’s effect had worn off.

When she opened her eyes, she realized this wasn’t her home. She slightly turned her head to gaze around and saw Jiang Chengsi pulling open half of the curtain, opening the window to ventilate the room.

The window was half-opened, and the cool breeze rushed in, making her feel much more comfortable. fгeewebnovёl.com

Jiang Chengsi stood by the window, looking outside with a complex expression, raising his hand to tug at his tie, feeling like it was choking him.

In his mind, flashes of her wearing a qipao with all its charms and her bold, unrestrained legs, ignited a fire in his heart.

What the hell—

Jiang Chengsi, you’re really an animal, fantasizing here while she’s drunk?

His heart pounded fiercely, his breathing became uneven, his ears blazing red, and he felt intensely hot all over.

Afraid that it might suddenly rain heavily again during the night, and rainwater would seep inside, he slowly closed the window that was originally halfway open, leaving just a crack for ventilation.

As the window glass closed slowly, the night grew thicker, and the glass seemed to turn into a mirror, reflecting the interior furnishings, including the bed.

Jiang Chengsi frowned because the bed was empty.

Instinctively turning around, Si Qingxiao had silently approached him, perhaps because she was barefoot...

"Xiao..."

Before he could finish a single word, Si Qingxiao suddenly stepped forward, pulling them very close. She slightly lowered her head, resting her forehead against his chest, her warm breath completely filtering onto his shirt...

Like a wildfire on a barren land, his blood surged and flowed rapidly.

She was too hot, especially her forehead.

The heat seized his heart.

"Fourth Brother—" Her voice was softer and more coquettish than usual.

She rarely acted spoiled with him, but now, blushing, she obediently leaned into his arms, her body swaying slightly, as if seeking support, then she reached out...

And wrapped her arms around his waist.

Jiang Chengsi’s body stiffened, not daring to move.

"Fourth Brother..." The little girl’s voice was excessively soft, leaning against him, her voice drowned in her warm breath, soaking into his skin bit by bit.

Shaking his breath and heartbeat, assailing his rationality.

Enough to drive anyone to madness.

"What’s wrong?" Jiang Chengsi thought that if she asked for his life at this moment, he would give it to her without hesitation.

Perhaps it’s better said...

His life was already in her hands.

Her slightly rapid breaths unraveled his heart rhythm.

"I feel awful, my head hurts."

"Don’t drink so much next time." Jiang Chengsi reached out, wanting to massage her temples to alleviate her discomfort, but he didn’t realize how hot her face was until his fingers brushed against it, engulfed by her warmth.

"Mm." Si Qingxiao nodded, her face cupped in his hands, looking up at him.

Their eyes met, and an ambiguous heat surged between them...

Jiang Chengsi didn’t want to take advantage of her while she was intoxicated. After all, they had plenty of time ahead of them and there was no rush. Noticing she was barefoot, "I’ll carry you back to bed to rest."

As he bent down, Si Qingxiao suddenly tilted her small face and kissed him...

Until she couldn’t catch a breath, Jiang Chengsi finally withdrew but didn’t fully let go of her,

"Is your headache severe?" Jiang Chengsi’s voice seemed to be simmered with the same intoxicating heat as the alcohol.

"Mm."

"Should I massage it for you?"

"I want to take a shower first."

A shower...?

The Jiang Mansion isn’t a hotel; not all bedrooms come with bathrooms. Although there’s a public bathroom outside, Jiang Chengsi would never let her shower there.

"Then... you can use my room?"

...

Si Qingxiao felt sticky all over, uncomfortably hot, so she nodded in agreement. Jiang Chengsi helped her put on her shoes. The young lady wobbled while walking, and in the end, he carried her back to his room.

He found her a set of his clothes and stuffed her into the bathroom.

"Can you manage on your own?" Jiang Chengsi was worried she’d slip while showering.

"Hmm..." Si Qingxiao was conscious, "If I can’t, can you help me?"

She just said it offhandedly, and Jiang Chengsi immediately shut the door, his face turning beet red in an instant.

This young lady drank too much; it’s one thing to kiss him first, but what’s she doing now? Inviting him to shower with her?

At this moment, the sound of running water came from the bathroom, and he sat on the bed, his mind beginning to wander...

Shower together?

He took a deep breath, internally conflicted, feeling like a beast on one hand, while itching with desire on the other, it was driving him crazy.

He paced around the room, opened the window for some fresh air, but the cool breeze only fueled the fire in his heart.

Damn it, Jiang Chengsi, are you a beast?

You promised Uncle that you’d take her home.

You haven’t taken her back yet, and if you do, not in perfect condition, how do you plan to explain yourself to them?

...

Just as his thoughts were in turmoil, Si Qingxiao finished showering and came out.

"Fourth Brother, don’t you have a blow dryer here?"

When Si Qingxiao came out, Jiang Chengsi felt like he was going to die again.

He had originally found her a set of his pajamas, but she only wore the top, which barely covered her thighs. It wasn’t particularly revealing, but as she rubbed her hair with a towel, the shirt was lifted an inch.

The blend of innocence and allure was going to be the end of him.

"Why aren’t you wearing pants?"

"They’re too long, and the bathroom is wet. They’ll get dirty." Mainly, they didn’t fit at all.

"I’ll go get you a blow dryer." Jiang Chengsi shifted his gaze away from her.

He didn’t have a blow dryer in his room, but he remembered that his older brother had one...

Being a man, he had short hair and could get by with a towel. He’s not like Qi Zeyan, who fusses over his hair every day; he never prepared such a thing. Jiang Shiyi, on the other hand, is a bit of a neat freak and wouldn’t let water drip from his hair.

So at three o’clock in the morning, someone knocked on his brother’s room door.

"What’s up?" Jiang Shiyi asked with a cold face.

"Brother, can I borrow something?"

"What?"

"A blow dryer."

"..."

Running over to borrow a blow dryer in the dead of night? Is he nuts?

Does he even know what time it is!

Jiang Shiyi’s eyelid twitched a couple of times, he took a deep breath, gave him a look, and shut the door.

"Hey, brother..."

Jiang Chengsi frowned, damn it, he’s heard that waking him up makes him cranky, but his brother waking up is no better.

He wasn’t about to disturb his second brother or Jiang Xiaowu, and was just about to knock again when the door opened, and a folded blow dryer, packed in a bag, was handed out.

"I’ll return it after using."

"No need to return it, buy me a new one instead."

"..."

Jiang Shiyi probably guessed it wasn’t for his own use. Before closing the door, he added, "The insulation here in the old mansion isn’t great. When... you know, try to keep the noise down. Don’t disturb everyone’s sleep."

"Hmm?" Jiang Chengsi hadn’t even processed it before the door shut again. He walked back with the blow dryer, only realizing at the door.

What kind of devil brother is this, treating him like some kind of person.
