Chapter 1795 - 1791: The Joy After the Drunken Night (First Update)
Chapter 1795: Chapter 1791: The Joy After the Drunken Night (First Update)
After serving the tea, Shi Xueqing glanced sympathetically at Huyue on the bed, then quietly withdrew.
However, out of concern, she still cautiously stayed by the door and didn’t leave.
Although her ancestor was usually incredibly idle, almost dismissive of the world, his performance in this great battle was undoubtedly remarkable.
And after this battle, the reputation of Fanjing Mountain Lingying Palace surged, with the number of pilgrims suddenly multiplying by countless times, keeping Shi Xueqing extremely busy, only recently easing slightly.
Under such circumstances, Shi Xueqing’s impression of Huyue naturally improved significantly. Seeing that the master’s wife seemed very upset now, she was, of course, worried.
At the same time, Ah Rou groped to lift the teacup and walked to the bedside.
"Little fox, who were you calling just now?" Ah Rou asked gently.
Huyue was still in a half-drunken, half-awake state. He heard Ah Rou’s question without any defense and chuckled, "It was my good friend back then, wasn’t it?"
"Good friend? Is that all?" Ah Rou asked softly.
The only response she got was Huyue’s snoring.
Ah Rou sat by the bed dazedly for a long time until the tea in the cup gradually cooled, then she groped to hold Huyue’s head.
"Drink some water!"
But at this moment, Huyue suddenly reached out and hugged Ah Rou directly.
Startled, Ah Rou dropped the teacup to the ground, producing a crisp shattering sound.
Outside the door, Shi Xueqing was also startled, "Master’s wife, what happened? Is everything okay?"
Shi Xueqing said softly, "It’s nothing, just a cup fell, don’t worry about me!"
"Is it really okay? Do you need help?" Shi Xueqing was still a bit hesitant.
"No! You go ahead with your work!" Ah Rou said somewhat nervously, her pretty face blushing because of Huyue’s embrace.
"Alright then!" Shi Xueqing stopped talking, but she didn’t leave either.
Meanwhile, Ah Rou bent down and whispered into Huyue’s ear, "Let go of me!"
However, not only did Huyue not let go, but he held her even tighter, then uttered indistinctly.
"Rou Rou, once I find a way, I will definitely cure your eyes!"
Upon hearing this, Ah Rou trembled all over, then she froze there.
She had been blind since birth, never knowing what light was, until she later met Huyue.
As an Immortal King, Huyue initially thought this was just a minor ailment that could be easily cured. Unexpectedly, all his attempts ended in failure.
Neither the Elixir nor Immortal King spells had any effect on Ah Rou’s eyes.
After closely examining Ah Rou’s soul, Huyue discovered she had no vision sensation in her soul, meaning her five senses were naturally lacking.
This situation was unheard of, leaving even Huyue at a loss.
Even after meeting Zhuge Cang, he repeatedly asked about it, but Zhuge Cang was also helpless.
Ah Rou gradually gave up on the idea of regaining her sight.
Now hearing Huyue bring it up again, Ah Rou’s heart naturally trembled.
Just then, Huyue suddenly sat up halfway, and with seven parts drunkenness, kissed Ah Rou on the lips.
Ah Rou’s body stiffened, her heartbeat seemed to stop.
"Ah Rou, be mine!" Huyue whispered in her ear.
Ah Rou’s struggles came to a halt, and then the bed curtain slowly fell.
Outside the door, Shi Xueqing suddenly heard a strange sound from inside the room. Initially, she was puzzled, but after listening carefully, she suddenly understood something, causing her face to blush all the way to her ears as she hurriedly turned and left.
And so the night passed.
The next day, after waking up from a hangover, Huyue’s head was throbbing painfully.
"Damn it, seems like I should never drink this much again!" Huyue muttered softly, then turned to his side, immediately widening his eyes.
Because lying beside him was Ah Rou, her face streaked with tears, seemingly having just fallen asleep.
Huyue glanced down at himself and gasped, "Damn, what... what happened?"
An hour later.
Inside Number One Tian Villa.
Xue An, Zhuge Cang, Ye Hanshang, and others glared at Huyue, wide-eyed.
Ah Rou was surrounded by An Yan and others, sitting at a distance, her face still bearing tear marks.
"Alright, what exactly happened?" Xue An asked in a deep voice.
Huyue shook his head, "I... I don’t know! I just remember drinking and taking Ah Rou to Fanjing Mountain Lingying Palace, and then I remember nothing!"
Upon hearing this, Ah Rou lowered her head, tears dripping down.
Seeing this, Hu Ying became angry, not even calling him brother, "Huyue, what do you mean by that? Are you planning not to acknowledge it after eating? Are you being fair to my sister-in-law?"
Everyone looked at Huyue oddly.
Huyue was sweating profusely, waving his hands repeatedly, "No, no, although I’m unreliable, I’m not that kind of irresponsible person, I’m just... just...."
"Just what? Speak up!" Hu Ying said with her hands on her hips, aggressively questioning.
Huyue lowered his head, weakly saying, "Just feeling it’s all too sudden, and feeling sorry for Ah Rou!"
This answer left Hu Ying, who intended to scold her "scumbag" brother, stunned.
"Uh... you...."
At this moment, Huyue raised his head, speaking firmly, "Actually, I’ve long wanted to formally marry Ah Rou, but always felt the time wasn’t ripe, so it’s been delayed until now. But now that she is my woman, there’s nothing to say, I will soon take Ah Rou back to Qingqiu Fox Country to formally propose to the elders for a marriage!"
Huyue’s words lit up Ah Rou’s face, her formerly cold and trembling hands warming up as a result.
But Xue An raised an eyebrow slightly, "You plan to take Ah Rou back just like that, do you think your Qingqiu Fox Country’s Great Elders will approve of you marrying her?"
This question hit the nail on the head, leaving Huyue speechless, until after a moment, he said bitterly, "No, they won’t!"
But then he solemnly said, "Even if they disagree, it won’t change my mind! Worst case, I’ll elope with Ah Rou!"
"Good! This indeed is the decisive brother I have in mind!" Hu Ying cheered without shying away from causing a scene.
However, Xue An shook his head, "Huyue, you think things too simply. Do you really think you can solve the problem just by eloping?"
"Else what?"
"You are the undeniable outstanding figure among the younger generation of Qingqiu Fox Country, the future star of the Fox Clan the Great Elders have high hopes for. If you really dare to defect for Ah Rou, I assure you that Ah Rou won’t live to see the next morning!"
