Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 325 I thought she really liked me this time.

"Of course I care," Kuang Xu said, taking a sip of his drink. "Anyone would, I would too, even if I were a man."

"What kind of love is it if there's no possessiveness?"

"If it's not mutual, you'll just suffocate yourself." He paused, sighed, and downed his drink in one gulp. "I've completely forgotten."

Shen Yanci chuckled self-deprecatingly, shifted his gaze to the side, and the muscles around his mouth trembled slightly, a suppressed tremor.

He drank glass after glass of wine, as if that would suppress the bitterness in his heart.

Kuang Xu no longer felt melancholy about spring and autumn.

He clicked his tongue and snatched the bottle back from his hand: "Is this how you drink brandy?

Shen Yanci chuckled twice, and then his eyes welled up with tears.

"She wouldn't care what happens to me."

Kuang Xu, as his brother, really wanted to laugh at him, but having experienced it himself, he felt a mix of emotions.

He took a sip: "Don't act like a simp."

"I told you, showing off your relationship will get you struck by lightning." After a couple of drinks, his thoughts loosened a bit. "She's always chasing after me—"

Kuang Xu shut his mouth under Shen Yanci's dark eyes. It was better not to provoke a man who had been hurt by love.

Especially since this man had been drinking.

He poured himself some more wine: "At least you had it, which is better than never having had it at all."

"is it?"

A wound that was almost healed was torn open again by the same person. So easily, it turns out it was never truly healed.

Shen Yanci started drinking again.

Kuang Xu stopped trying to persuade him and looked at his dejected appearance: "I really should have taken a picture of it and sold it to you when you were sober."

He was impressed with his own clever idea; one car wasn't too much to ask, was it?

He held up his phone: "Say what you just said again."

Shen Yanci glanced at him indifferently: "Want to die?"

"..."

I drank for a while.

Kuang Xu was also a little drunk: "Think positively, even if she wants to leave, you've had a year together."

"..."

By the end of the drinking session, Shen Yanci was like a lump of mud, and Kuang Xu helped him into the car, mumbling incoherently, "I thought she really liked me this time."
-
Qin Zhao's villa.

Qin Qiong heard her voice: "Baby's back!"

Qin Zhao forced a smile and hummed in agreement.

Qin Qiong smiled and said, "Mom will make yogurt bowls later. Do you want to eat them together?"

Qin Zhao paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

After watching Qin Zhao go upstairs, Qin Qiong looked at Aunt Wang.

Aunt Wang: "It looks like Yan Ci's car."

Qin Zhao went upstairs and hit the sandbag for a while.

I lay down for a while before taking a shower.

The water flowed over my forehead, creating a subtle feeling of suffocation.

How could she be losing control of her reactions?

It was okay if we were close before.

Her face was covered in water droplets, which slid down her face like tear tracks.

After she finished showering, Qin Qiong's yogurt bowl was ready.

They sat on the sofa watching Lin Shi's variety show.

Qin Zhao nestled against her.

Qin Qiong patted her head: "Where did you go today?"

"A coffee shop." Qin Zhao remembered Jiang Man's investment. "Mom, Manman also wants to invest, through a capital increase and share expansion, 20%. Is that possible?"

"Sure," Qin Qiong smiled. "This shop was originally yours. However, when friends cooperate, there are some unpleasant things and rules that need to be said upfront to avoid ambiguity and disputes that could damage the relationship later."

"Yes, she only invests and receives dividends; she doesn't participate in management decisions."

"I'll tell Lawyer Wang, you can just go directly to her." "Okay, thank you, Mom."

"You're welcome! I'm so glad I could help the baby's mother," Qin Qiong said with a slightly joking tone.

In a variety show, a celebrity jokingly scolded, "You're not normal!"

Qin Zhao pursed her lips, lowered her eyelashes, and remained quiet for a while.

She went back to her room and leaned against the bed.

Shen Yanci didn't send her a message. Lin Shi said he would be back in a couple of days and asked her to wait for him.

Qin Zhao held the dark fish, pursing his lips.

Just as she was about to lie down, the phone rang.

The sequence is as follows:
"Qin Zhao, Shen Yanci is completely drunk! Can you come out and get him?"

Qin Zhao sat up: "Where are you?"

“We’re at the entrance of the Rose Garden,” Kuang Xu sighed. “I’m in my car, so we can’t get in. You should tell the property management.”

"..."

Qin Zhao frowned when he saw Shen Yanci, who was completely drunk: "Why did you drink so much?"

Kuang Xu glanced at her: "If even your girlfriend doesn't know, how could I possibly know?"

He asked the driver to help pull Shen Yanci out.

Qin Zhao had no time to analyze his veiled sarcasm, and instead supported him from the side, saying, "Be careful of your head."

He was so drunk he couldn't walk, and the driver had to help him. He kept trying to get closer to Qin Zhao, and almost fell to the ground.

Kuang Xu cursed, "He's hopeless."

He weighed 140 pounds and was unconscious, so he almost fell down with Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao quickly helped him up, then looked at Kuang Xu and asked, "Can you help me?"

Kuang Xu's steps were still unsteady.

Fearing that he might hurt Shen Yanci, Qin Zhao had no choice but to call the property management.

They helped Shen Yanci upstairs, one on each side. Qin Zhao followed beside them, his worried expression genuine.

When the property management asked if anyone needed to stay and take care of him, Kuang Xu immediately kicked them out: "He doesn't like strangers."

He glanced at Qin Zhao and said, "You should go back too."

Qin Zhao was taken aback: "You're going to take care of him?"

"I'm going home too," Kuang Xu said nonchalantly. "Just cover myself with a blanket so I don't get too warm, what could possibly happen?"

"..."

He glanced at Qin Zhao, whose gaze was still fixed on Shen Yanci: "I don't know what's wrong with him, drinking so much alcohol while crying. Like he's heartbroken."

"The year I first went to England, I got drunk and cried like this, clutching my wallet and refusing to let go. I thought he wasn't that obsessed with money, so I secretly opened it and found a Polaroid photo inside, a picture of him with a guy. I thought he was gay. Later I found out the person in the photo was a girl."

Qin Zhao's fingers curled up slightly.

Kuang Xu continued, "I'm also wondering how someone so proud could get drunk after getting what he wanted."

"Maybe the one who falls in love first is destined to lose. After being frustrated for a long time, they lose all sense of security and confidence."

After he left, only Qin Zhao and Shen Yanci remained in the room.

Shen Yanci lay on his side, his face contorted in discomfort.

Qin Zhao touched his face; it was burning hot, and his whole body was flushed.

She lowered her eyelashes, trying to soothe his discomfort, only to realize that it was caused by her.

She pursed her lips, and her eyes welled up with tears.

She looked at him for a while and then checked the precautions for being drunk.

I used warm water to wipe Shen Yanci's face, neck, and hands, and wiped his forehead and wrists for a while longer.

Once he regained some consciousness, Qin Zhao fed him some warm water. Since he couldn't drink much, and Qin Zhao was worried he'd choke, she didn't force him.

She used a tissue to wipe the water that had spilled from the corner of his lips.

Suddenly, she remembered the scene where she pretended to be drunk and Shen Yanci would call her to drink water every now and then.

　We should be able to talk things out by tomorrow night or the night after.
