Days and nights of pursuit of Dottore

Chapter 138 The Drunkard and 1 Cup

Cheng Yan lowered his eyes and looked at Wendy's red face. He should have been touched and should have continued to follow Wendy's words, but the module in his mind about romance seemed to have suddenly broken a string, and could not support Cheng Yan to continue being so heartless.

Holding Wendy's wrist, Cheng Yan summoned Zhuofeng.

"Let's go shopping first."

It was not the first time for Wendy to fly, but it was definitely the first time for her to fly while standing on a sword. She couldn't help but grab the hem of Cheng Yan's clothes tightly with both hands, for fear that she would fall down.

Feeling Wendy trembling behind him, Cheng Yan raised his hands and held her directly in front of him.

He put his arms around Wendy's shoulders and held her tightly in his arms.

"Don't worry, Zhufeng is very stable and won't fall down."

Wendy was enveloped in Cheng Yan's scent, a faint, fresh smell, as if she was surrounded by flowers and plants.

"Yeah, yeah." The heat on her cheeks had not yet subsided. Wendy raised her hand to hug Cheng Yan's arm, and lowered her head to look at the constantly changing scenery below her feet.

The atmosphere became extremely good. Every move of Cheng Yan, who was serious, was simply charming. It was as if Wendy didn't even have to walk the path by herself. Cheng Yan knew what she wanted as soon as she stretched out her hand and opened her mouth.

Sitting down at a roadside tea stall, Wendy held up her face with a smile and watched Cheng Yan ask the boss for some wine.

It's obviously a tea stall, how could there be any wine?

Just when he was about to call out to Cheng Yan, he saw the tea stall owner come out with a jar of wine that had obviously been treasured for a long time, smiling broadly.

"Cheng boy, this is thirty-year-old wine, drink it quickly, I haven't given it to anyone who wants it!"

Cheng Yan smiled with his eyes crooked, "Uncle Chen is the best."

There was a full jar of wine, and the aroma overflowed as soon as it was opened. Wendy began to drool instantly. Trying to make her desire for the wine less obvious, Wendy swallowed and spoke.

"If you really want to come, I'll just say it casually."

Cheng Yan took the bowl and poured it for Wendy, "You can tell me what you want in Liyue Harbor, and I can find anything for you!"

Cheng Yan patted his chest and guaranteed that he had been here for hundreds of years and knew where the bricks were, so it would be easy for him to get a jar of wine.

Wendy took the bowl handed to her by Cheng Yan, suppressed the urge to drink, and took a small sip.

Cheng Yan tilted his head to look at him, "Is it not tasty? That's all you want to drink?"

Wendy felt the aroma of wine brewed from grains in her mouth, and she almost wanted to drink it directly from the jar on the table.

But I don’t want to expose myself as an alcoholic to the person in front of me too early…

Wendy's eyes rolled, and she held Cheng Yan's wrist and brought the bowl to his lips.

"It tastes good, you should try it too."

Cheng Yan frowned subconsciously, "I don't like wine."

The rich people he had met before would often become even more terrifying after drinking. A bug like him at the bottom of the food chain had no way of competing with those people.

Driving away the unpleasant memories in his mind, Cheng Yan met Wendy's eager eyes.

The edge of the bowl was already close to his lips, and Cheng Yan pursed his lips, not wanting to disappoint Wendy.

His encounter with the person in front of him was originally a temporary measure, but Wendy was the target person selected by the system, and Cheng Yan had to have an intersection with him. To be fair, he didn't hate the person in front of him at all, but if he said how much he liked him...

Cheng Yan closed his eyes. When he mentioned love, the only person in his mind was Zanzan.

His heart suddenly became filled with anger. He was angry that he couldn't meet the person he wanted to see, and he was also angry that he deliberately established an emotional connection with Wendy in front of him. Cheng Yan opened his lips and took a big sip. The spicy and stimulating feeling instantly occupied all his taste buds.

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

There was a heart-wrenching cough and Cheng Yan was choked. Wendy's face changed immediately. She helped him to the tree and patted Cheng Yan on the back.

"Are you okay? Blame it on me. I shouldn't have let you drink."

Wendy felt a little guilty. It was obvious from the look on Cheng Yan's face that he couldn't drink at all.

Just as he was about to apologize again, his wrist was suddenly grabbed forcefully.

Wendy lowered her head and met Cheng Yan's hazy eyes.

"You...who are you?"

It seemed as if a series of stars were circling in his mind, and Cheng Yan felt dizzy and about to fall to the ground.

But there was no "thump" sound, and I actually fell into the arms of a familiar-looking person in front of me.

Cheng Yan raised his hand curiously and pinched Wendy's face.

"Alive, alive. Were you also captured here?"

Wendy held his hand, "Catch? Catch where?"

Cheng Yan's expression suddenly became pitiful, and he hid in Wendy's arms as if he was scared.

"He caught me stealing things, and if I couldn't steal anything, he would beat me. I was afraid, so I stole things. I am a bad person..."

Wendy was stunned for a moment, realizing that Cheng Yan was drunk, but the meaning of his words...

Raising her hands and holding the person in her arms, Wendy patted Cheng Yan to comfort him.

"It's okay. You're in a safe place now. No one will force you to do anything."

Cheng Yan's eyes were blurred and his gaze flickered, as if he had really heard it.

"Really? I don't have to get beaten? I don't have to be chased?"

Wendy tightened her arms around Cheng Yan.

"I promise, no one will dare to touch you again."

Cheng Yan buried his head in Wendy's arms at ease, but after a moment, he seemed to remember something and looked up at Wendy's face.

"I remember now. I like you, right? Who are you? I like you, right?"

Although the words were spoken in a tentative tone, Wendy couldn't contain her joy when she heard them and was about to respond immediately.

"Yes, you finally found out that you like me, and we will be together soon."

Wendy smiled, showing a long-lost expression of relief.

It turns out that Cheng Yan would say such nice things when he was drunk. He should have been allowed to drink earlier.

But this joy did not last long.

After hearing what Wendy said, Cheng Yan had no doubt in his eyes, but a guilty expression appeared on his face. He pressed Wendy's shoulders and tried to stand up, as if he wanted to leave.

Wendy held him back, "Where are you going? Didn't you say you liked me?"

Cheng Yan turned his wrist, not wanting to be pulled by Wendy.

"I, I have someone else I like without telling you. If you find out, you will spank me. I'm afraid. I don't want to be spanked, so I want to run away."

Wendy didn't know whether to laugh or cry. These words were so true that he wanted to cry.

"I never spanked you, you remembered it wrong."

Cheng Yan's eyes showed uncertainty. He looked at Wendy carefully and became even more hesitant.

"Do I... do I really know you?"

Wendy said with a straight face, "You kissed me the first time you saw me, and now you don't want to take responsibility?"

Cheng Yan's expression suddenly changed, "No, no, how could I kiss you? He will be angry, he will be angry."

He turned around and was about to run again, but Wendy pulled him back forcefully.

"Who? Who would be mad if you kissed me."

Cheng Yan wanted to break free, but the strength on his wrist was getting stronger and stronger, causing him some pain.

"Woo...Lord Emperor, save me."

When Wendy heard Cheng Yan calling his name, he felt strangely relieved. Compared to others, he could accept that Morax weighed more heavily on Cheng Yan's heart.

Seeing Cheng Yan's rare and pitiful appearance, Wendy couldn't help but feel moved.

If Cheng Yan was awake, he would not be able to gain the upper hand no matter what. Now looking at Cheng Yan's appearance, he is really pitiful and lovable. I must tease him more.

Thinking of this, Wendy frowned and spoke in a deliberately serious tone.

"Stop shouting. Your Lord Emperor won't come even if you shout your throat out."

Wendy still had a smile on her face, but a shadow suddenly appeared beside her.

"Who said I wouldn't come?"

The man stood with his hands behind his back, his hair swaying slightly beside his cheeks.

Morax glanced at Wendy lightly, then took a step forward and fixed his eyes on Cheng Yan.

The smile on Wendy's lips froze.
