Seeing the girl drink again, Chen Cong also raised his wine bowl and drank.
Seeing Chen Cong drink so readily, the girl smiled slightly and sang again, “As long as you can sing, I can accompany you. Don’t be afraid of the big bowl of wine. I’ll make sure you feel the warmth of affection.”
However, Chen Cong was struggling, looking at the wine bowl and trying to refuse.
Cheng Zhiyi encouraged him, “Brother Chen, drink up. This is our local best yellow wine, commonly known as ‘Border Governor’s Wine’ and ‘Imperial Sealed Wine’.”
“I can’t, really can’t,” Chen Cong bowed left and right, trying to dodge.
Cheng Zhiyi was correct in his explanation. The homemade yellow wine was sweet and sour, refreshing and delicious. Even seven-year-old Liang Liang had drunk a large bowl. However, the wine had a strong after-effect, and after the meal, everyone returned to their rooms to rest.
It wasn’t until Cheng Zhiyi knocked on the door again that Ding Nuanyang drowsily awoke.
“Miss Ding, you’re awake?” Seeing Ding Nuanyang open the door in a daze, Cheng Zhiyi smiled and approached, saying something surprising, “If I’m not mistaken, Miss Ding is troubled by matters of the heart?”
“Huh?” Half of the alcohol in her mind instantly dissipated, and Ding Nuanyang touched her still-burning cheeks, wondering if she had been too obvious.
But no matter what, she and he had never met, yet he had spoken of her most secret inner thoughts, so she believed him unconditionally. Ding Nuanyang wrinkled her brow, looking a bit pitiful, “You, can you see my future? Can you see if I will eventually meet him?”
“I, I don’t know.” Cheng Zhiyi also frowned, then as if unable to bear seeing Ding Nuanyang in such a state, “How about this, I’ll try my best at the bonfire party later and see if I can glimpse your future with that person.”
“Okay, okay!” Ding Nuanyang nodded heavily, as if grasping a lifeline.
Cheng Zhiyi nodded, then turned to continue knocking on other room doors.
Closing the door, Ding Nuanyang leaned against the door panel, her mind in chaos.
