100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 124 Drinking Song

"Shen Jinhuan!" Huo Jingheng's face turned as black with rage upon hearing Jinhuan's words.

He strode over, grabbed Jin Huan's waist, and pulled her back into his arms, his grip inevitably a little too strong.

He forced a smile at Wei Zhongqing: "Uncle, don't take it seriously. Huan'er is drunk. Please sit down first, and I'll take her back to her room."

Huo Jingheng's attention was mostly on Jin Huan, so he missed the emotional changes in Wei Zhongqing's eyes. No one knew how fast his heart was beating just now!

The area around my waist where she had hugged me felt faintly warm.

Jin Huan was carried into the house and kissed until her lips were swollen, which finally brought her back to her senses.

She looked at Huo Jingheng with teary eyes. "You're not allowed to say those things to other men again, do you hear me!" Huo Jingheng grabbed her chin, looking down at her with a slightly fierce expression.

Jin Huan pouted, and tears immediately streamed down her face: "You're being mean to me!"

She pushed Huo Jingheng away and started to walk outside.

Wei Zhongqing was still standing at the door, but Jin Huan didn't even glance at him as she passed by.

"Huan'er!" Huo Jingheng had already chased after them.

"Let me go! I'm running away from home! You're being mean to me! I don't want you anymore!" She has a terrible temper; you can't hit her or scold her. If you upset her, she'll just run away from home.

Huo Jingheng could only hold her tightly in his arms and apologize repeatedly: "I was wrong, I'm sorry Huan'er, I was wrong, I'll talk to you properly in the future, I'm sorry."

Jin Huan struggled at first, but then nestled in his arms and sobbed softly. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief; if she hadn't done that, she probably wouldn't have been able to get away with being drunk, hugging Wei Zhongqing in front of other men, and flirting with other men.

She cried herself to sleep, and Huo Jingheng held her and comforted her for a long time before she finally laughed.

Wei Zhongqing stood behind him, his eyes filled with desolation. A few crabapple petals drifted down, rolled over his shoulder, slid down his robe, and finally fell at his feet.

Huo Jingheng carried Jin Huan inside to rest.

Wei Zhongqing stood outside, looking at the ear cups and wine jars on the table. For a moment, he felt as if he could travel through time and space to glimpse the scene of Jin Huan and Huo Jingheng playing around.

His expression grew increasingly dejected.

There were so many crabapple trees in the courtyard, which suited her perfectly. The red petals and the red hem of her dress were so beautiful that it was hard to tell which one accentuated the other.

......

Huo Jingheng waited until the little girl had completely calmed down and was lying obediently on the couch before he had time to talk to Wei Zhongqing.

"Uncle, please excuse my poor appearance."

"It's alright." Wei Zhongqing waved his hand.

"Is Uncle here this time?"

"His Majesty wishes to continue the campaign. Do you still want to fight? It's hard to recruit able-bodied men now. Those remaining in the villages are mostly the elderly, women, and children who don't engage in production." Wei Zhongqing was somewhat worried about the current situation. The war must be fought, but the lives of the people must be put first.

"His Majesty decides these things. If His Majesty wishes to fight, I will continue. If His Majesty wishes to recuperate, then I will stop." Huo Jingheng didn't think as much as Wei Zhongqing, nor did he want to think so much.

He simply wanted to be the sharpest sword in Emperor Wu's hand.

Wei Zhongqing frowned, but he didn't want to try to persuade Huo Jingheng. After all, it was the Liu family's world, and they were just a group of subjects.

......

After finishing their business, he said he wanted to ask Wei Zhongqing to be the officiant at his wedding with Jinhuan, as he wanted to get engaged to Jinhuan before going to the border.

Wei Zhongqing's fingers, resting on his knees, tightened incessantly.

"Is it okay, Uncle?"
