When the two of them touched, Lu Yan's whole body shuddered noticeably, but Chu Qingyin was drunk at that time and didn't notice what Lu Yan was doing at all. She just giggled.

Her current state really stumped Lu Yan. Normally, he only thought of Chu Qingyin as a fairy from heaven. Even if she said she was a mortal, he always felt that she was omnipotent.

So he kept drinking tonight. Lu Yan really thought she had a good alcohol tolerance, but she didn't expect that she would get drunk so quickly. She is a girl and it is still an hour or two before dawn. What should she do?

"Miko, you..."

You are drunk, let me take you home. Before I could finish this sentence, I was interrupted by Chu Qingyin:

"What shrine maiden? I'm not the shrine maiden you're talking about. I'm Chu Qingyin, a female student at Kyoto Noble School."

Chu Qingyin's half-coquettish, half-blaming voice shook Lu Yan's heart again and again.

The arm she had just swung carelessly hit Lu Yan. Lu Yan, who usually hated being touched by others, didn't dare to move at this moment.

"Okay, Chu... Qingyin..."

He repeated the name, as if he had memorized it deeply in his heart, as if it were the most precious treasure in his heart. In Yunjin, a woman's maiden name was not allowed to be known by outsiders.

He didn't expect that the witch would tell him her maiden name after getting drunk.

Although it was an unintentional act, it brought him long-lasting joy.

"That's right."

At this time, Chu Qingyin was staggering as she walked, but she was unwilling to go back. She walked on this road very stubbornly, as if she had the determination not to go back unless she could walk well.

But as she walked slowly, she finally realized that she really couldn't walk straight, and it was even easy for her to fall. So she gave up and stretched out her two arms, looking at Lu Yan, trying to hold Lu Yan's neck.

This action was what she had always longed for, but what she longed for in her heart was the necks of her grandfather and uncle. There were no other men around her at this time, so she stopped Lu Yan without any romantic intentions, but simply demanding love.

"You know what? This is the happiest year I've had in a long time."

The two of them walked forward quietly, and the people beside them did not speak, but just listened to him quietly. Although it was drunken talk, he kept every word in his heart like a treasure.

"My grandfather passed away, and I haven't seen my mother. Some time ago, I thought my uncle would get better. He was my spiritual support for so long, but he also passed away in the hospital some time ago."

Because she was drunk, her words were unclear, but Lu Yan could understand her. What she meant was that she had no relatives now. Although he wanted to ask her so many things, how could such a person be like this?

But he couldn't ask, and he had no right to ask.

Seeing Chu Qingyin's eyes reddened and she seemed to be about to cry, Lu Yan was very anxious, but she didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only stammer and say:

"Don't be sad. If you need me from now on, I'll be with you every New Year, okay?"

"really?"

Chu Qingyin's eyes were immediately filled with stars, and she looked at Lu Yan with great anticipation, which made Lu Yan feel embarrassed. Although she was probably going to black out tomorrow due to her current drinking condition, this beautiful memory was only known to Lu Yan.

But he couldn't help blushing when he looked at his burning eyes.

This night was like a dream to him.

But no matter how beautiful the dream is, one will wake up. In the early morning, the two of them sat together in a teahouse, and he quietly watched Chu Qingyin's drunken appearance.

She fell asleep on the table in a daze, watching the sun shining in through the window little by little. Chu Qingyin's body gradually disappeared from his sight, like a blown rainbow bubble that burst with a poke.

He also tried to put his hand on her, but at this time Chu Qingyin seemed to no longer be in this time and space, leaving only some illusory shadows, making it difficult for him to tell whether today was real or a dream.

When Chu Qingyin woke up and looked at her room, she was still in a daze and didn't know how she had spent New Year's Eve. After thinking for a long time, she remembered what she had done before drinking. She was shocked. She didn't expect that she had gone to Yunjin. But why did her head hurt so much?

Gradually, she thought of herself and Lu Yan drinking. She couldn't remember anything after drinking too much, and her face suddenly turned red.

"It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over. You won't think I'm a bad girl just for drinking outside... I heard that people in Yunjin are very reserved."

She stood up and paced around her room, then suddenly realized something:

"No, why would I care what he thinks of me? We're just friends anyway..."

She had just woken up when she heard 101's excited voice in her ears:

"How is it, host? How do you feel about this trip to Yunjin? Why don't you thank me quickly for helping you apply for such good benefits."

Chu Qingyin answered him with a few words and planned to go to school.

Anyway, it would be meaningless for her to celebrate the New Year alone, so she might as well try her best to prepare for the exam and get a satisfactory result so as not to waste time in the future.

It was already after the New Year. Since they had celebrated the New Year in Xixiang, Lu Yan, Lu Zhou and Lu Wei should return to the capital of Yunjin.

Along the way, Lu Yan's actions really opened their eyes, so they were completely blameless and there was nothing to criticize him for.

Lu Yan himself was originally a general. Even though he didn't have many people around him this time, each of them was a top-notch general in Yunjin. Even if assassins were sent, they could not get close to Lu Yan.

So they traveled safely all the way to the capital. Another year had passed, and although winter had not yet passed, the grass in the capital was already showing a light green.

Before Lu Yan came back, Lu Qian had already heard about Lu Yan's glorious deeds along the way and opened the country's doors to wait for his return.

Normally, he didn't care about political affairs, but he knew that due to Lu Yan's help this time, the amount of taxes Xixiang would have to pay in the future would definitely increase significantly.

If he wanted to build a second or third Zhaixing Tower, the money would continue to flow in. How could he not be happy?

Before Lu Yan returned to the capital, he saw people from both sides of the capital rushing over enthusiastically:

"Welcome Prince Jing back to the capital!"
