Chapter 1365 - Drink the Sorrows Away

Li Rui stared at her, speechless.

Everyone had their own insistence, and even if the insistence of this silly sister was unpleasant, she had no right to interfere.

When Xia Yingluo saw his expression, she said, “Second Brother, don’t be angry. I’ll forget about it and gather energy to conceive the World Tree.” And prepare to leave a hundred years later.

“Forget?” Li Rui laughed angrily. “Are you stupid? Is it that easy to forget someone? If you like him, go after him! It doesn’t matter if he loves Gu Jinxiu or the Queen, you should still snatch him over! Once he falls in love with you, you can take your revenge and throw him away like garbage as long as you’re happy! That should be the attitude you should have in love, understand?!”

Xia Yingluo only felt tired.

“Brother, I’m tired,” she said without much energy. She got up and walked towards the door. “I’m going to stay with Ling’er tonight, don’t look for me.”

“Yingluo! Yingluo, come back!” Li Rui chased her desperately, but Xia Yingluo didn’t look back. She left him alone and disappeared in the lush courtyard of the luxury villa.

The Li family heard the sound and came over.

“Yingluo got mad at you and left?” Li Shaohui looked at the direction in which she left and asked while touching his chin.

Li Rui glared at him and rolled his eyes. “You were nowhere to be seen when I was trying to persuade her, but yet, here you are to watch the good show!”

Shaohui narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Do you think that girl is like you, so rough? Tell me, how did you anger her this time?”

“How is it my fault?” Li Rui jumped to his feet and pulled his parents to judge. He told them about how he had tried to console Xia Yingluo and about their conversation.

“You still say you didn’t anger her?” Li Shaohui concluded his statement. “Girls need comfort at this time, not for you to encourage them to fight for bloodshed. She’s so sad, yet you still bothered her. Do you even understand women?”

“Do you?!” Li Rui was even angrier. “That’s my sister! Of course I want her to fight! Fight for her own happiness!”

“Isn’t your sister a woman?”

Li Rui: “...”

The two brothers were so heated up that Li Lei and Xia Ling were at a loss.

Li Lei managed to return to the main topic and asked Li Rui, “You just said Wei Lingnan is getting married?”

“Yes.” Speaking of that, Li Rui got even angrier. “Dad, let’s kill the pair of dog couple! I can’t stand seeing them like this.”

Li Lei sighed and groaned, then said, “Forget it, let’s just follow her decision. We shouldn’t take matters into our own hands.” Now that she had decided to try to forget the man, they’d try to help her forget him. Giving her space alone was the best option.

Li Rui was not convinced. “She’s prone to accidents when alone.”

“Everyone has to grow up,” Shaohui said. Although he was distressed over his younger sister, he understood that some roads had to be paved by oneself.

Li Rui still wanted to say something but was interrupted by Li Lei. “Well, just like that, none of you is allowed to go to Wei Lingnan to trouble or disturb him. Everything will wait until she returns to normal.”

Shaohui acknowledged.

Li Rui glanced at him, and no matter how unwilling he was, he had to agree.

Xia Yingluo stayed in Jin Ling’er’s house.

She stayed there for many days.

Jin Ling’er was very worried about her condition and said, “Yingluo, he’s a scumbag. What’s so great about him? Just forget him and find a better man! I think Jiang Yu is talented and well-mannered, and he’s even gentle. He’s a hundred, a thousand times better than that Wei Lingnan!” When she was in the training camp, she supported Xia Yingluo and Wei Lingnan getting together, but now the situation had changed. She had long been foes with her good girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend and hated Wei Lingnan. Thus, she was naturally in favor of Jiang Yu.

Xia Yingluo smiled bitterly. “Don’t make trouble, just let me be alone.”

So Jin Ling’er didn’t say more and just let her be alone. Every day, she left the house to shoot a movie and then rushed back, bringing food for Xia Yingluo, trying to make her open up, but to no avail.

Over time, Xia Yingluo saw the TV news. It said that Gu Jinxiu and Wei Lingnan would have their wedding the next day. The news also showed a photo of them choosing the wedding dress together. In the photo, the two were close together and looked very affectionate.

Her heart stung again.

She turned off the TV and looked out the window.

Suddenly, she wanted to drink and went to Jin Ling’er’s wine cabinet to bring all the wine in. She didn’t take a cup and simply poured bottle after bottle into her mouth. The spicy feeling spread to her stomach along the throat and spread to her limbs like a fire.

“Wei Lingnan...” she muttered the man’s name.

In the dimness, it seemed that someone came from the starlight and walked in front of her. He reached out his hand and hugged her. “Yingluo, you can’t drink anymore.”

Who was it? Who was talking to her with such a gentle voice?

Xia Yingluo opened her eyes hard, trying to see the person in front of her, but she couldn’t see clearly. She murmured again, “Wei Lingnan...”

“I’m not Wei Lingnan, I’m Jiang Yu.” The man’s nice voice came, softly suppressing anger and heartache in the gentleness. “Yingluo, why are you making yourself like this for a man who left you?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Xia Yingluo’s cheeks were crimson and she was very embarrassed in his arms. The corners of her eyes were faint with tears. Even though it was so bad, Xia Yingluo still reached for the empty bottle and said, “Wine... give me wine, can I forget you just by drinking a lot of wine?”

Jiang Yu couldn’t bear it and took the bottle from her.

Since sending Xia Yingluo home a few days ago, Jiang Yu was very uneasy. He had called her and no one answered, so he asked Li Rui about her current situation. Coincidentally, Li Rui was also very worried about her, so he told Jiang Yu that she was with Jin Ling’er. Jiang Yu had come looking for her a few days earlier but was stopped by Jin Ling’er.

Jin Ling’er said, “Yingluo is here to hide quietly. She doesn’t want to see anyone, so don’t break in. If she’s forced to go missing, we’ll all regret it.”

So Jiang Yu didn’t dare to meet her.

But tonight was different. Tonight was the wedding eve of Wei Lingnan and Gu Jinxiu. The news reported their upcoming wedding in a big way. Jiang Yu was worried that this incident would cause too much stimulation to Xia Yingluo.

Jin Ling’er had the same concerns and hence let him in.

Sure enough, they didn’t know when Xia Yingluo moved all the wine in the wine cabinet into the room, but she drank almost all of it.

Jiang Yu held the drowsy Xia Yingluo in his arms and coaxed her. “You are drunk, let me help you go to sleep.”

Xia Yingluo smiled. “I’m not drunk. Nan, I know it’s you. You are so ruthless, how could you announce the marriage when I’m still so weak. I’m still pregnant.”
