Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds, illuminating the entire Guangping Palace. Everyone started their day as usual, but today was a little different.

Dugu Xin, Chu Xiaoyi, and Li Chu were still the first to wake up. They were used to getting up early to exercise to maintain their health and vitality. They put on light clothes, walked out of the room, and prepared to start morning exercises in their respective courtyards.

However, there was one more person in today's group—Chu Xinghan. After careful consideration last night, he decided to change his lazy schedule and join the morning exercise group. So, last night, he said to Zhan Ying, "Zhan Ying, I need to get up early tomorrow morning, preferably at the same time as my father and the others. You are responsible for waking me up and making sure I don't oversleep."

Zhan Ying was well aware of Chu Xinghan's determination and the importance he attached to this change. Therefore, he had deliberately waited outside Mo Yuxuan this morning, closely monitoring the movements inside. When he saw Mo Yuxuan's door open, he immediately realized that Mo Yuxuan had gotten up and was preparing to go to the courtyard to practice swordplay.

Zhan Ying quickly returned to Chu Xinghan's room and gently woke him up. Chu Xinghan rubbed his eyes and looked at the slightly white sky outside the window. He was still sleepy and was about to lie down again.

But since Zhan Ying had come back to call him, he knew his father should have gotten up, so it was time for him to get up too. So he quickly washed up, put on a coat, and followed Zhan Ying to the outer courtyard.

However, Chu Xinghan thought of his younger brother next door and had to wake him up. Otherwise, it would be useless if he got up so early but his younger brother still stayed in bed!

Chu Xinghan turned and walked towards the next room. Chu Xingchen's attendant, Mo Yu, saw Chu Xinghan coming and bowed and said, "Greetings to the prince!"

Chu Xinghan raised his hand and said, "Excuse me," then asked, "Is Xingchen still not awake?"

Mo Yu replied respectfully, "My Lord, the young master hasn't woken up yet."

Chu Xinghan looked helpless and had no choice but to order Mo Yu, "Mo Yu, ask someone to prepare some warm water. I'll go wake him up so he doesn't get scolded by his father again!"

After Mo Yu received the order, he went down to prepare.

Chu Xinghan asked Zhan Ying to wait outside first, and he gently pushed open the door and entered the inner room. Looking at his brother's sleeping face on the bed, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In fact, he was still reluctant to wake him up. After all, he had "passed out after one drink" last night.

But there was really no other way. If they didn't wake Chu Xingchen up, firstly, their father still didn't know that Chu Xingchen had been drinking and was drunk yesterday; secondly, he had already escaped punishment yesterday by getting up late and making everyone wait for a long time. If he got up late again today, he would probably really be punished...

So after weighing the pros and cons, I would rather choose to get up early than get punished...

So Chu Xinghan came to the bed and sat down, then called softly: "Xingchen, Xingchen, wake up..."

But there was no response, so he called out twice again. Seeing still no response, he reached out and touched his forehead. There was no fever. He then checked his breath. Well, he was still alive. Don't blame me for being rude!

So Chu Xinghan started shaking and calling his name, his voice getting louder. Sure enough, the person on the bed responded. When he was half asleep, he saw his brother sitting in front of the bed, staring at him. He was startled and woke up a lot...

When he reacted, he asked, "Brother, why are you here?"

Seeing Chu Xingchen wake up, Chu Xinghan's tone softened a lot: "Of course I woke you up." After a pause, he asked: "Do you remember what happened yesterday?"

Chu Xingchen tried to recall it carefully, but after a long while, he only remembered that the three of them had dinner together at Tianxianglou, and then he couldn't remember anything else, not even how he got back...

Chu Xinghan knew immediately when he saw him like this: Come on, he probably didn't remember drinking yesterday. So while Chu Xingchen was washing up, Chu Xinghan told him what happened yesterday.

Chu Xingchen was incredulous after hearing this: "What? How could I get drunk with just one drink? Impossible!"

Chu Xinghan said speechlessly, "What's impossible? How could I possibly lie to you? Besides, not only me, but also my cousin, Zhan Ying, Mo Yu, and the others saw it!"

Chu Xingchen felt so embarrassed: "Ah! How could this happen? Even Yu'er can drink more than me! She will always make fun of me for this!"

Chu Xinghan felt that this little brother was really a child who never grew up. Even at this age, he was still afraid of being outdone by his own sister...

However, Chu Xinghan decided to remind him again, not letting him get too caught up in this matter, so he said, "Xingchen, don't worry about it for now. Don't worry, as long as my cousin doesn't say anything and I don't say anything, Zhan Ying and the others definitely won't tell either. If you just stop drinking, you won't be discovered, right?"

Chu Xingchen thought about what Chu Xinghan said, and it was indeed true. His mood immediately improved a lot.

Seeing his brother's face improve, Chu Xinghan said, "If you don't want to be punished, remember what I said. You fell asleep in the car because you were tired from playing yesterday. Do you understand?"

Chu Xingchen nodded vigorously. Chu Xinghan felt relieved to see that his brother had taken his word for it. After packing up, the two of them exercised in the courtyard for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, they packed up again and headed to the front hall...

They were the first to arrive today. Not long after them, Dugu Xin arrived, followed by Chu Xiaoyi and Li Chu.

Chu Xiaoyi was very pleased that they were the first two to arrive and that they brought wine back to him and Dugu Xin last night, and even his smile became warmer.

When the Chu brothers saw their father's expression, they realized that their father seemed very happy, so they happily finished their breakfast.
