Thinking this way, but didn’t voice her thoughts, thinking it’s better to discuss this with Jingrui when she returns.
This meal went on until the restaurant was closing.
Fortunately, Huo Jingrui was foresighted and drove over.
Otherwise, with these guys all getting drunk and stumbling around, who knows what they’d do.
Initially, these people planned to make Yunyi drink, but because Yunyi generously gave each person two sets of skincare products, they felt a bit embarrassed to force drinks on her.
Yunyi was naturally happy about this, mainly because she thought at least one person should stay sober to safely get everyone home.
So, a few from the compound were pushed back on a borrowed cart by Lu Licheng and assisted by Huo Jiayuan, delivering them to each of their parents.
The rest were all stuffed into the car. Luckily, there were no overcapacity limits now. Huo Jingrui, in a daze, directed the way, and Yunyi drove everyone back home one by one.
It was past midnight when Yunyi and Huo Jingrui returned to the compound.
Jiang Jingya had been waiting in the living room for them. As soon as the car stopped, she quickly got up to greet them outside: "You’re finally back. How are you, okay?"
Upon hearing her mother-in-law’s voice, Yunyi asked, "Mom, why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?"
Jiang Jingya helped Yunyi support Huo Jingrui: "I couldn’t sleep well knowing you weren’t back yet."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a cold ’hmph’.
Yunyi looked up in the direction of the sound to see her father-in-law, Huo Shanhe, standing there.
Yunyi felt warmth in her heart, but also some guilt followed: "Dad, Mom, I’m really sorry for making you worry."
Huo Jingrui was no longer as uncomfortable now: "Dad, Mom, it’s late, you should get some rest, or you won’t be able to wake up tomorrow."
Jiang Jingya, seeing her son was coherent, figured it wasn’t too serious: "Okay, you two wash up and rest early too."
As soon as Jingrui entered the bedroom, he shut the door and drew the curtains.
Yunyi had just taken out her pajamas from the closet when Jingrui leaned over; "Yi’er, let’s go to our space."
Yunyi intended to go soak in the bath anyway, so she didn’t refuse. However, this person reeked of alcohol and insisted on clinging to her, almost making Yunyi drunk from the fumes.
Upon entering the space, Yunyi dragged him straight to the hot spring as she couldn’t stand the alcohol smell.
She heard Huo Jingrui, voice hoarse, say: "Yi’er, I want you."
Yunyi directly threw him into the water: "Get rid of the alcohol smell first, then we’ll talk."
But no sooner had she said that than Huo Jingrui pulled her into the water, coquettishly saying: "Yi’er, help me wash."
Yunyi tried to push him away, but Huo Jingrui wouldn’t let go: "Huo Jingrui, are you doing this on purpose?"
Huo Jingrui brought his mouth close to Yunyi’s ear: "I miss you, Yi’er."
As he spoke, his hands became restless, and soon the two were in the nude, heading to Mount Wu together.
Due to the alcohol, Huo Jingrui was particularly clingy that night.
The next day, Jiang Jingya and Huo Shanhe waited but didn’t see them. Unable to delay any longer without being late, they left a note and headed out.
Yunyi woke up to bright daylight, suddenly remembered she had to go to the military base today, and quickly reached out trying to push the person beside her, only to find emptiness.
Turning her head, she saw no trace of Huo Jingrui on the bed.
Just as she wanted to sit up, Huo Jingrui opened the door and walked in: "Yi’er, you’re awake?"
Yunyi, still drowsy, asked: "What time is it?"
Huo Jingrui, walking towards the bed, replied: "Nine-thirty."
Hearing it was nine-thirty, Yunyi instantly woke up: "What did you say, it’s nine-thirty?"
Throwing off the covers, she was about to get off the bed.
Huo Jingrui quickly stopped her: "It’s okay, as long as we reach the military base before noon."
Yunyi rolled her eyes at him: "We agreed to go back to the military base today, why didn’t you wake me earlier?"
Huo Jingrui grinned cheekily: "Mom and Dad are experienced; they won’t be mad at you."
This made Yunyi even more embarrassed: "You’re still talking?"
Knowing not to push too far, Huo Jingrui decided not to tease her any longer: "I’ve prepared breakfast. I’ll carry you to wash up, then we’ll go downstairs."
Before Yunyi could respond, she was already picked up in his arms.
Yunyi, slightly annoyed, said: "Are you treating me like a child?"
