Chapter 43: Cheers

Mmm

Xiao Yan, feeling a pounding headache, tightly furrowed his brows and struggled to open his eyes, looking at the familiar ceiling in front of him.

It was his own room.

With a somewhat clouded mind, Xiao Yan suddenly felt an uncontrollable wave of nausea, and instinctively turned his head towards the side of the bed, vomiting out everything in his stomach.

After vomiting, although Xiao Yans head still ached, it was much better than before.

What happened

Xiao Yans hazy mind tried to recall, but he couldnt remember what had happened before.

At that moment, the figure of Yao Chen appeared, looking at Xiao Yan teasingly.

Ah~ as someone who drank for the first time, you can really hold your liquor~

Senior Yao

Xiao Yan looked up at Yao Chen, and upon hearing her words, he suddenly remembered something.

It seemed that Xiao Ning had invited him to drink

The two of us finished twelve barrels of liquor, and when we finished the last one, you passed out on the floor and couldnt even call for help.

Yao Chen chuckled, and Xiao Yan covered his head, a wry smile appearing on his lips.

So, this is a hangover Ill never drink again next time

Everyone says that after sobering up from alcohol~

Yao Chen shrugged lightly. Perhaps it was human nature to forget the pain once the wound had healed. People tend to have short memories when it comes to the suffering they have experienced.

Having learned a lesson this time, he would dare not do it again next time.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

What time is it?

Xiao Yan looked out the window and saw that it was already dark outside, suddenly becoming fully awake.

Oh no! Its dinner time!

Xiao Yan jumped off the bed and started cleaning up the mess he had just vomited. Yao Chen floated in the air, looking at him with confusion.

Is there any activity tonight?

Xiao Yan! How do you feel?

The two voices sounded simultaneously and then fell at the same time, both of them froze for a moment, their gazes locked on each other, showing a clear sense of hostility. However, they quickly smiled at each other.

Miss Nalan, you are a guest. Ill take care of Xiao Yan. How can we trouble you? Xiao Xuner said, her voice filled with respect.

Little sister, what are you saying? I will be Xiao Yans wife sooner or later. Its my duty, how can I let others take care of it? Nalan Yanran replied with equal respect.

Their words were filled with reverence, but also with a thick scent of gunpowder. Their eyes met, sparking a dangerous atmosphere that filled the entire room.

Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ying looked at this scene with helplessness on their faces, while Xiao Li grinned excitedly, looking like she was enjoying the spectacle. As for Xiao Qing Lin, the young girl had never witnessed such a situation before. She curled up her small body, gripping the edge of the table, trembling in fear.

Xiao Yan also felt the faint dangerous aura emanating from the two of them. His whole body shivered, and his head cleared up instantly. He quickly broke free from their grasp.

Im feeling much better now! Dont worry! Xiao Yan said, pushing the two of them back to the dining table. He smiled awkwardly and said, Oh~ I slept the whole afternoon, and Im starving. Lets eat!

With Xiao Yans urging, the meal officially began.

Father, please.

Xiao Yan poured a glass of wine for Xiao Zhan from the jug. Xiao Zhan smiled happily, his face filled with a sense of contentment.

Then, Xiao Yan poured wine for Xiao Li and Xiao Li, and Xiao Li nodded with a gentle smile while Xiao Li looked at her little brother with teasing eyes.

Little Yan, care to have a drink with your second sister?

Not today Xiao Yan refused with a pained expression. The headache that had finally subsided, he didnt want to experience it again.

Seeing Xiao Yans expression, Xiao Li burst into laughter again, reaching out to pat Xiao Yans head.

Hahaha! Little Yan, you still have a long way to go!

Hearing his second sisters teasing, Xiao Yan felt a bit embarrassed and shrugged. He put down the wine jug and sat back in his seat.

Sitting in the main seat, Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Yan, who was directly opposite him, with a smile of satisfaction on his lips.

If there was one thing in this life that made Xiao Zhan feel the most satisfied, it was having such a sensible and mature son like Xiao Yan. The unity and harmony within the Xiao Clan now were all thanks to Xiao Yans efforts.

Without Xiao Yans hard work, the internal strife within the Xiao Clan would have continued until now. It would have been impossible to sit in the Xiao Clan courtyard at noon, enjoying a joyful atmosphere like they were now.

Thinking this, Xiao Zhan slowly lifted his wine glass, and the others also raised their glasses, listening to Xiao Zhans next words.

To toast for a greater and better year for our family, cheers!

Cheers!
