That evening, Xia Zhi was painting at the large desk in the living room—the living room had good lighting and was spacious, hence the desk had been moved out there. He Jinnan came home.
She put down her brush and walked towards the door, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed as she watched him sit on a stool to change his shoes. She teased him, "You came back a bit late today, it seems you practiced quite hard."
Bending over to untie his shoes, He Jinnan chuckled dryly upon hearing her words. After changing his shoes, he sat up and let out a long sigh.
"Mr. Liu said I've been dancing so vigorously these past few days that I've lost weight and needed to replenish my nutrients. So tonight, after just half an hour of dance, we went out for dinner," He Jinnan said as he stood up and embraced Xia Zhi, kissing her cheek.
Xia Zhi pushed him away, annoyed, "How much did you drink? You reek of alcohol."
