Chapter 228: Carry her home!

Ji Pianran in front of him looked exactly like a little kid.

Gu Chen looked at her funny and cute appearance, but more than anything else, he felt a pang of pain in his heart.

He thought that when he went out for a drink, she would feel more resentment and disgust, thinking that he was not doing his job and was a good-for-nothing.

But he never imagined that she simply wanted to be with him.

As long as she was by his side, she would be happy even if she had to do things she didn't like.

Once again, a deep sense of guilt welled up in his heart.

Gu Chen couldn't help but gently embrace her, and then kissed her hand, allowing her dizzy head to rest on his shoulder.

His tone was full of hidden heartache.

'Good girl, let's stop drinking,'

Ji Yuanbai was full of thoughts about how to explain to his brother what happened back then. He just didn't know how to start, so he decided to drink a few more glasses of wine to embolden himself.

He poured himself a full glass.

He looked over at Gu Chen.

'This, this second glass, I toast to you two as a couple. I wish you both would respect each other like guests in a noble household, be united as one, and grow old together.'

Ji Pianran had already drunk several glasses, and now her head was spinning and her legs were weak and powerless.

She stumbled a few times and only managed to stand firmly with the help of Gu Chen.

Seeing her daughter feeling dizzy, Wu Shuhui hurriedly stopped her.

'Forget it, Pianran has drunk a lot today.'

Ji Bianran sucked her stuffy nose and said, 'It's fine. It's rare to see Uncle San, and it's a blessing, so it's okay to drink a little less.'

After saying that, she didn't hesitate to raise the red wine glass on the table.

Although she hated the last thing Uncle San said, she liked it!

She wanted to grow old with Gu Chen!

She gulped the red wine in the glass and wiped her mouth before savoring it.

To be honest, the more she drank, the less she liked it.

Gu Chen felt really bad for her, not that he didn't want to stop her, it was just that she was going too fast.

He looked at Ji Bianran helplessly, really not understanding how someone who had drunk too much could move so fast.

It just didn't make sense, did it?

The wine was sour and most importantly, had a strong aftertaste.

Ji Bianran had just put down her glass when she felt her head buzz and her ears hum.

Even the voices of the people around her gradually faded.

She shook her head to try to wake herself up.

As a result of this shaking, she felt her stomach churning.

The urge to vomit became more and more profound.

She quickly stretched out her slender arm and patted her chest to suppress this urge.

Wu Shuhui saw her daughter drink like this and felt a pang of pain.

'This child, really, if you can't drink, don't drink, you'll definitely feel bad tonight!'

Ji Guangsheng also felt bad.

He looked at Gu Chen.

'How about this, it's getting late, let Bai Guang take you home first, get some rest early.'

Hearing that she had to go home, Ji Pianran refused. She shook her dizzy head and said slowly, 'No, today is the happiest day of my life, I must drink a few more glasses!'

Seeing her usually meek sister actually dare to refuse her father.

The expression on Ji Chu's face was wonderful.

It turned out that she was even more obedient than herself.

Of course, he didn't know that at that moment, Ji Bianran was really, really happy.

Gu Chen had been good to her, and Tang Tang had become more and more sensible every day. Now she had met up with her parents and younger brother again, and everything was back to normal.

She felt that her life was complete.

It was as if she had survived a crisis, and now she had finally soared.

She felt completely at ease.

'Sister, you'd better listen to Dad and go home first. There's plenty of time in the future, there's no rush.'

'Yes, go back soon and get some rest.' Wu Shuhui was also very concerned.

Without waiting for Ji Pianran to say anything else, Uncle Guang had already stood up, hugged Tang Tang, and then looked over at Gu Chen.

'I'll take Tang Tang downstairs, and you bring Pianran down. Be careful, don't fall.'

The young lady really can't drink anymore, she needs to rest immediately.

Gu Chen politely nodded, 'Thank you, Uncle Guang.'

He hadn't driven, and it was late, so there were no more green trains.

He could only trouble Uncle Guang to give him a ride.

Hearing that he really had to go, Ji Pianran reluctantly said, 'I don't want to go! I can still drink a little!'

She just didn't want to go.

Although she had drunk, she really didn't want to give up the happy atmosphere of the family together.

'Listen to me, come back tomorrow,' Gu Chen advised with a heavy heart.

She really couldn't drink anymore.

Ji Pianran's eyes drooped, and she looked pitifully at Gu Chen, her tone bordering on pleading.

'Can I have just one more little drink? After that, we'll go back. I haven't had a drink with Ji Chu yet. He's my younger brother, and we've always been very close.'

Ji Chu was a boy, so his parents had stricter expectations for him.

It wasn't that they favoured boys over girls, but they just felt that boys should be more responsible, after all, they would have to take care of the whole family in the future.

Only if he is outstanding will his family be happy in the future.

Because he is afraid of Ji Guangsheng, Ji Chu tells Ji Pianran about anything that bothers him.

Ji Pianran will always give him advice.

The two siblings have always had a very good relationship.

She has only been here for half a day, and she hasn't even had a chance to talk to Ji Chu. She has only had two drinks, and she is going to go back already. She really doesn't want to.

Ji Chu looks at his sister, who is drunk, and feels only sad.

Some time ago, her brother-in-law said that his wife had been admitted to hospital with polyps in her stomach. At that time, he didn't know that the person who was ill was his sister. To be honest, he felt only sympathy, but not heartache.

After all, it was none of his business.

But now, seeing his frail sister, he really felt heartache, like a needle piercing his heart.

He rolled his throat and looked at Ji Pianran earnestly.

'Sister, go home first. This is your home, and we will always be here,'

After saying this, he looked up at Gu Chen.

'Brother-in-law, take my sister home.'

She really needed to rest.

Gu Chen nodded, 'Okay, we'll go first. I'll bring Dad his meals in the morning.'

After saying this, he picked up Ji Pianran's thin body and strode towards the door.

She was burning hot and still smelled faintly of alcohol.

She seemed a little unwilling to be picked up so suddenly by Gu Chen, and looked at him pitifully. Her tone was slow and serious, with a hint of a nasal twang, which was simply beautiful.

'Can we stay a little longer, just a little while?'

She wanted to sit with her parents and younger brother for a while longer.

The little body in her arms could not move because of the alcohol, so it just obediently let itself be held, curled up like a cat in her arms, with its slightly drunk eyes staring straight at her.

Gu Chen really felt both pity and love.

If she hadn't drunk, Gu Chen could really have checked herself into the hospital right now, so Ji Pianran could have had a good chat!

But in her current state, she must go home!

'Close your eyes and sleep for a while, and we'll talk when you wake up,' he advised patiently.
