Chapter 1143: Chapter 1143: Never Learning from TV Dramas Again

Zhao Dingli thought for a moment and said, "We only drank red wine tonight, which isn’t very strong in flavor."

"Oh, that’s why," Li Xiaoyun believed him.

What Zhao Dingli said actually made some sense.

Seeing that Li Xiaoyun believed him, Zhao Dingli finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Xiaoyun managed to help Zhao Dingli into the house with great effort.

Even though Zhao Dingli was pretending to be drunk, he didn’t intend for Li Xiaoyun to take off his shoes.

So he pretended to lean against the shoe cabinet, swiftly changed his shoes himself, and then let Li Xiaoyun help him to the living room to sit.

"You took those anti-hangover tablets, haven’t they made you feel better?" Li Xiaoyun asked.

"It’s not as bad, but my head is still a bit dizzy," Zhao Dingli said.

"I’ll make you a cup of honey water," Li Xiaoyun said, "It’s good for the stomach too."

In the past, at social gatherings, she had to drink alcohol despite her fears due to gender issues, but she managed well.

Still, drinking would always hurt the stomach.

Ye Fei bought some Manuka honey for her, which is specially for the stomach, very good for digestion.

Upon hearing Zhao Dingli’s stomach wasn’t good, Li Xiaoyun made him stomach-friendly meals.

She also kept some honey at home.

Insisting he drink some every day.

Li Xiaoyun went to make honey water for Zhao Dingli, and Zhao Dingli leaned on the sofa, tilting his head, watching Li Xiaoyun busy in the kitchen.

Because the kitchen was open style, Zhao Dingli could see when he tilted his head.

Zhao Dingli silently marveled, having Li Xiaoyun around was great.

Before long, Li Xiaoyun brought the honey water back.

Zhao Dingli took it graciously, without expecting Li Xiaoyun to feed him, and gulped it down himself.

"Sorry for troubling you to pick me up tonight, you should rest," Zhao Dingli said.

"What about you?" Li Xiaoyun quickly asked.

"I’ll stay here for a while, I’ll be fine once I recover a bit," Zhao Dingli replied.

With that being said, how could Li Xiaoyun fall asleep?

"What if you fall asleep here while sitting?" Li Xiaoyun suggested, "I’ll help you to the bedroom, don’t shower tonight since it’s not good to shower after drinking. Just sleep first. If you have time in the morning, you can take a shower after getting up."

Zhao Dingli nodded, and Li Xiaoyun supported him as he stood up, helping him to the bedroom.

Zhao Dingli’s arm naturally draped over her shoulder.

Outside, probably due to the spaciousness and the night breeze, Li Xiaoyun felt a bit shy but was okay.

Inside the house, the proximity suddenly shrank the space.

The house, which seemed big before, suddenly felt unusually small.

Before going out, Li Xiaoyun turned off the air conditioning, and hadn’t had the chance to turn it on again.

No windows were open now, and naturally there’s no airflow, only the remaining coolness from the air conditioning.

But clearly, even that little remaining coolness wasn’t enough now.

The warmth from Zhao Dingli transferred to her.

Even his breath sprayed onto her neck, ears, and cheeks.

Probably because of the enclosed space, Li Xiaoyun could now smell the red wine in his breath.

Li Xiaoyun’s face turned embarrassingly red, and she felt especially hot, with her head dizzy.

Although she hadn’t drunk, just smelled a bit of the aroma, why did she feel like she was drunk?

Despite socializing, though she didn’t drink much, she actually held her alcohol well.

She had deliberately practiced.

Because of work, to avoid being taken advantage of, she had to train her alcohol tolerance.

Girls should ideally not drink outside but must be able to drink and develop tolerance.

That’s the only way to avoid being taken advantage of.

But now, she became somewhat intoxicated just from the scent.

Li Xiaoyun felt her legs weaken, just wanting to quickly send Zhao Dingli into the bedroom.

Never dare to get this close to him again.

If he wasn’t drunk, she would never have done this.

Zhao Dingli was heavy, causing her to stagger along the way.

No one knew how, but Zhao Dingli’s face was getting lower and closer to hers.

Li Xiaoyun didn’t dare nor had time to check how close Zhao Dingli’s face was.

Only felt particularly close.

With difficulty, she got Zhao Dingli to his room.

When putting him on the bed, Li Xiaoyun never imagined that often seen cliché from TV dramas would happen to her.

As Zhao Dingli lay on the bed, his arm was still on Li Xiaoyun’s shoulder.

Li Xiaoyun originally intended to leave, but instead Zhao Dingli’s arm pulled her down, directly into his arms.

Li Xiaoyun didn’t know that this old cliché was something Zhao Dingli learned from TV.

After all, he was older, and the shows he watched had more of a vintage feel.

Television doesn’t often depict this now.

With work keeping him busy, Zhao Dingli didn’t have time for the latest shows.

What he remembered were the series watched when there was still time.

Moments ago, a sudden impulse made him plan this.

Who knew, the picture Zhao Dingli imagined was beautiful.

But in practice, it wasn’t that pretty.

Considering TV filming, they control the angles and strength, filming countless times to achieve the perfect shot.

But in real life...

Zhao Dingli never expected, Li Xiaoyun indeed fell into his arms.

But her chin also hit his chest.

Li Xiaoyun’s face was small, chin sharp, perfectly heart-shaped.

Her chin was strong and hard, hitting the similarly toned chest.

Just heard Zhao Dingli muffled a grunt, his face turning purple.

It really hurt!

Li Xiaoyun, startled, quickly stood up, leaving no trace of romantic atmosphere.

One was in pain, one was startled.

In the chaos, Li Xiaoyun’s hand pressed directly onto Zhao Dingli’s chest.

Poor Zhao Dingli, having just been hit by Li Xiaoyun’s chin, was now pressed on the same sore spot.

And as if that’s not enough, Li Xiaoyun’s entire weight rested on it.

By the time Li Xiaoyun stood up, Zhao Dingli felt like he was about to pass out.

He now regretted it, very much regretted it.

Will not imitate TV dramas anymore.

What are these terrible schemes.

Television is deceitful!

"Are you okay?" Li Xiaoyun felt extremely awkward.

Not to mention the embrace, she also made him look half-dead.

How embarrassing!

Zhao Dingli’s chest hurt too much to speak.

One hand was rubbing his chest, the other gestured, "Pain."

"Sorry, sorry," Li Xiaoyun almost wanted to find a hole to hide in.

Zhao Dingli struggled to shake his head, "It’s not your fault, my weight burdened you."

"Are you... are you very hurt?" Li Xiaoyun asked again.

"I wonder if it’s bruised," Zhao Dingli said.
