Chapter 160 Wine is not intoxicating
In any case, her life in modern times is still very leisurely.
"I wonder... if those old immortals have accepted any other disciples. After all, their greatest wish in life is to have a disciple who can inherit everything they have. That's why they chose me back then. Now, I guess they've chosen someone else. But it's not so bad this way. There's probably no one in this world who can make people sadder than me."
Situ Yaorao whispered, and finally let out a sigh.
No matter how reluctant she was, no matter how unwilling she was, she still had to live in this place. After all, only by living could she see hope. Once she died, there would really be nothing left.
She didn't dare and was afraid.
People say that wine doesn't make you drunk, but you make yourself drunk. Situ Yaorao lay beside the wine jar, her eyes hazy, and she gradually fell asleep.
In the dense forest, two middle-aged men in linen clothes and two women stood in front of a little girl. They smiled kindly and with a sharp look in their eyes: "Little girl, you have amazing bones and are a good material for learning martial arts. Do you want to come with us?"
"Is there anything to eat?" The child's eyes lit up.
"Hahahaha, of course."
Strange? Where is this? Situ Yaorao seemed to see those old immortals deceiving someone in her daze. However, she couldn't see more clearly.
But as long as they are safe, that's good.
In the restaurant, everyone was drunk. After Situ Yaorao went upstairs, Yu Sheng, who should have been drunk, slowly opened her eyes and looked at the wine glass in her hand with confused eyes. After a while, she chuckled.
"Oh! I never thought that the young master of the Yu family would sometimes fall asleep on the ground. If the people of the Yu family knew about this, who knows how sad they would be." Just as Yu Sheng was laughing, she heard a faint voice from the side. It was a woman's voice, charming and with a hint of teasing.
The people Yu Sheng interacted with most often were, without a doubt, women. So, upon hearing this, Yu Sheng frowned. Turning around, she saw a graceful woman in red standing in a corner, a man sitting beside her. He was dressed in a pale blue gown, his eyes slightly cold, his lips curled in a perfectly defined arc. He looked incredibly dangerous.
He sat there, as quiet as if he didn't exist.
Yu Sheng looked at the two men, frowning. She stood up and said, "I can't believe the young master of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance would break into a private residence."
Yes, this person is the young master of the alliance who Yu Sheng has always said is extremely terrifying.
Yu Sheng was speaking to the man. He glanced at her calmly, his brows furrowed. A cold, icy voice echoed, "I'm just here to see my future neighbor. Don't be nervous."
"If it were a month ago, I might have believed you. But now?" The man frowned.
"Why don't you believe it now? Yu Sheng, I have never done anything to you." The man said, motioning the woman to go to his side.
The woman noticed Yu Sheng's gaze, smiled, and walked over to him, saying frivolously, "Master Yu, this is my Master's token. If you regret your decision later, you can take the token. As long as the people of the Yu family see this token, I think they will not think twice and will reinstate the Master."
"No need. I don't want to go back to the Yu family anyway." Yu Sheng walked away with disgust.
"Oh? You have quite a temper, but...don't be so confident." The woman said, and handed the token to the man. Then she returned to the young master of the alliance.
"Mei'er, stop messing around." The man frowned and said lightly.
Upon hearing this, the woman quickly and respectfully shut her mouth and retreated behind him, not daring to speak.
Yu Sheng looked at the two people and said, "Si Tu is not here. If you want to look for her, I'm afraid you've come here in vain."
"That's okay. I was a little curious about who was the person who let you let go of this store. I didn't expect it to be the eldest daughter of the Situ family. You've become quite shrewd."
"It's not that I've learned anything clever, it's just a coincidence. I happened to meet her when I was about to sell the shop. And she happened to do something that made me happy." Yu Sheng's eyes flickered with tenderness as she spoke of this. The man looked over and smiled, "Oh? If that's the case, I can't say anything more."
"Don't try to cause trouble for her." Yu Sheng looked at the man and spoke again.
"Huh?" The man was a little surprised.
"No matter what you want to do, there's only one thing: don't do anything to her. Other than that, whatever you want to do is up to you."
"Are you threatening me?"
"It's not a threat, it's just a warning."
"Oh? That's interesting. Back then, I, Ling Yuelou, bullied you so much, but you didn't even say a word. Now, you're saying these things to me for a woman. It's also interesting. I just wonder if Miss Lan would be heartbroken if she knew about this."
The man said meaningfully.
Yu Sheng just frowned when she heard this: "Lan Yi is a good girl, don't try to figure her out."
"Well, goodbye." The man left happily, not angry at Yu Sheng's attitude. After the man left, Yu Sheng sighed softly and sat down on the chair.
"Master, why are you leaving just like that?" Leaving Lan Yi Pavilion, the woman in red looked at her master in confusion. Ever since hearing about Situ Yaorao's situation, her master had been keeping an eye on her. Today, she had finally decided to come and meet him, but who knew she'd just come back like that? This wasn't like her master at all.
"Now that he has spoken, let's go back."
"Mr. Yu, is there anything wrong?"
"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that he changed from a gentleman at the beginning to a madman who is ready to explode at any time. I hate gentleman, but I don't hate madmen. Because many times, crazy people often bring you many surprises. It's like..." The man said halfway, then chuckled and stopped talking.
Mei'er didn't understand and just looked at him.
"Mei'er, according to your report, this store should be open soon, right?" The man looked at Lan Yige and asked lightly.
"My lord, the business will open in half a month at most. Does my lord have any ideas? Do you want me to send someone over?" Mei'er looked at the man and asked calmly.
"No need. I want to see how far the person who has Yu Sheng's favor can go. If... he fails to surprise me, then I will settle the score with Yu Sheng as well!"
After the man finished speaking, he turned away.
The woman in red looked at the man's back with some surprise.
The man she followed was a rare and extraordinary person. Ever since he became the Young Master of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, he had never left that position. Even when some disapproved, even when others tried to stop him, he was the one who ultimately triumphed over everyone. She had never seen him value anyone so much.
Whether it was Yu Sheng or Situ Yaorao who suddenly broke in here, they both seemed to be destined to catch the young master's gaze.
People say that the scariest thing in this world is the unchanging. But for her, the scariest thing in this world is often the ever-changing. If something changes, she will never be able to grasp it again.
She wasn't a young master... nor was she someone with grand ambitions. She simply wanted to watch that person walk further and further away. That was all. She only hoped... that this wish wouldn't be shattered by this so-called Lan Yi Pavilion.
Thinking this, the woman in red caught up with the man.
In the early morning, the sun was hiding in the clouds, the fog was still there, and it was unusually warm.
Situ Yaorao woke up from a hangover and felt a splitting headache.
Looking at her own posture, Situ Yaorao's mouth twitched. No wonder she had a headache. Had she been resting her head on her wine jar all night?
"That group of heartless people didn't even come to see me." Situ Yaorao thought depressedly, then gritted her teeth and stood up.
As soon as I left the room, I heard the sound of something being thrown in the hall.
"Ahhh! Bastard!" Lian'er roared. Situ Yaorao was startled when she heard this and hurried downstairs. She saw Lian'er in the lobby, her clothes disheveled, and a man standing in front of her. This man looked somewhat similar to Yun Luo, but compared to Yun Luo, he was a bit more gloomy and seductive.
