The nightlife in Jiang Yuan City was very rich. From 8 PM to 4 or 5 AM the next day, there were people enjoying nightlife.

Drink wine, eat crayfish, roll the kebabs.

Xuejin, Qingdao, and Baiwei.

Of garlic, spiced, and chilled.

Big waist, pork, in the wings.

This was the late night cafeteria belonging to the Chinese. The food was very simple, but the menu hadn't changed much in the past one or two hundred years.

Song Jia and the rest sat down by the roadside. This small lobster shop called the Hero of the Shrimp was just a normal one-story shop. There were tables and chairs placed in front of the entrance.

When Xu Taiping and co. arrived, there were still two more. Song Jia ordered two small lobsters, a large one with knobbly soup, and also had some food brought over from the barbeque shop next door.

The cold beer was carried to the folding table. The people sitting around the table had plastic stools, and the drunkenness could clearly be seen on their faces.

In the early morning of the end of summer, a chilly wind blew.

Song Jia Lun pulled Xu Taiping along, saying, "Sit on my left, help me block the wind."

Xu Taiping nodded, sat on the left side of Song Jia, and asked, "You all drink iced beer?"

"What about it? "Do you want to drink foreign wine in this place?" Huang Da asked with a smile.

"I thought you guys wouldn't drink this kind of civilian stuff." Xu Taiping said.

"The charm of late night cafeteria in China is that no matter what kind of person you are, as long as you sit next to a folding stool, you will just be a customer, an alcoholic, a small lobster, and a kebab." Huang Da said with a smile.

"You're right!" A man next to Huang Dazheng clapped loudly and said, "Boss, I want to eat kidneys!"

"Alright, wait a moment." The barbecue shop owner next door shouted with a smile.

"You rarely drink this late?" Song Jia looked at Xu Taiping with one hand on her chin, while blinking her eyes as she asked.

"After drinking so late, I usually go back to sleep." Xu Taiping said.

"Then you're finally here today!" Song Jia snapped her fingers and said, "Drink this wine. The more you drink, the more sober you become. With these delicious foods, you will feel a sense of happiness like a god. But when you get home, you will vomit like a dog, hahaha."

"You're vomiting like a dog now." Huang Da Qiang mocked.

"If you can spit, you can drink. If you can drink, you can spit. If you can spit, you can spit!" Song Jia said.

"Then you're a f * cking Buddha, haha!" Huang Da Qiang laughed heartily as he poured wine for Xu Taiping and Song Jia.

"Why are you so energetic at night? I see that you have friends in all of the boxes, so you should have finished drinking all of them, right? " Huang Da asked curiously as he looked at Xu Taiping.

"I can spit, I can drink, I can spit. Plus, my liver is good, I wake up faster." Xu Taiping said.

"Haha, just like me. No matter how much I drink, as long as I rest for a while, I can drink again when I wake up. Come, drink a cup!" Huang Da Qiang picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Xu Taiping's.

"I want a drink too." Song Jia Shi picked up her glass and said.

"Then let's all come together."

Several glasses clinked together, and they all drank together.

Rather than calling this a supper, it was more like breakfast. By the time they had eaten their fill, the sky was already completely bright.

Xu Taiping looked at his watch. It was 6: 30 in the morning.

The more she ate, the more spirited Song Jia became. She had been a little dazed before, but now, after drinking a few bottles of beer, she became full of energy.

However, the shop would close soon, so the group had to disperse on the spot.

"Take good care of her." As Huang Daxian was leaving with his sister, he left them with such a profound message.

At this moment, only Xu Taiping and Song Jia were left on the roadside.

Song Jia put her hands behind her back, looking a little unconcerned.

"Should I send you back, or should I ask your bodyguards to send you back?" Xu Taiping asked.

Song Jia raised her pretty eyebrows and looked towards the tree not far away. She shouted to the person standing under the tree, "Come over here for a moment."

That person rushed to Song Jia's side and bowed, "Miss, what do you need me for?"

"Go back, I'm not going home tonight. If my dad asks, just say that I left with Xu Taiping." Song Jia said.

"Miss, this …" The bodyguard was in a difficult position.

"No need for that, Xu Taiping is my dad and my brother, and I'm his niece. Don't tell me he can harm me?" Song Jia asked.

"Fine." That person nodded, looked at Xu Taiping and said, "Please take care of the little miss."

With that, that person turned around and left.

"You actually miraculously did not reject me?!" After that person left, Song Jia moved her face closer to Xu Taiping and said in surprise.

"Why did I reject you?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Are you suddenly enlightened?" No, it can't be like this. Could it be that you have some scheme? Did you and Xia Jinxuan plot a trap? Did she suddenly pop up and embarrass me when I went to get a room with you? Is that right? That must be it! " Song Jia said as she looked at Xu Taiping with an expression that said 'I can see through everything'.

"Go, or not go?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Where to?" Song Jia said with a frown.

"I have a room at the Palace of Delight." Xu Taiping said.

"Are you really not going home?" Song Jia asked.

"I have no home." Xu Taiping shook his head.

Song Jia suddenly felt an indescribable feeling of loneliness coming from Xu Taiping. This feeling of loneliness even seemed to have a thorn in it, causing Song Jia to feel pain all over her body.

"Then let's go." Song Jia said.

Xu Taiping took a taxi back to the Palace with Song Jia.

At the entrance of the Palace, the cleaners were cleaning the place.

Xu Taiping and Song Jia took the elevator to the third floor where Xu Taiping's room was.

Xu Taiping opened the door and walked in first.

Song Jia was suspicious as she stuck her head in from the door. She looked around for a long time. After confirming that there was no one around, she walked into the room and locked the door behind her.

This would prevent Xia Jinxuan from driving in from the door.

"Is this where you live?" "So small?" Song Jia stood beside the bed and looked around with a frown.

The room was about ten square meters long, with a bed, a long sofa beside the bed, and a small wardrobe on the other side. On the wall directly in front of the bed was a 45-inch LCD TV, and on the TV was an air conditioner.

Oh, and there's a small bathroom near the door.

Xu Taiping took off his clothes and laid down on the couch, closing his eyes and said, "Go to sleep."

"Sleep? You sleep on the sofa? " Song Jia asked in bewilderment.

"Otherwise?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Aren't you going to roll in the sheets with me?" Song Jia asked.

"You said that your father and I are brothers. You can be considered my niece. Can I just roll in the bed with my niece?" Xu Taiping asked.

Song Jia was momentarily at a loss for words.

At this moment, a feeling of nausea welled up in his throat once again.

Song Jia rushed into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.

Xu Taiping got up, walked to the bathroom door, turned on the fan, then went back to the sofa and lay down.

Song Jia's puke lasted for more than ten minutes. Then Xu Taiping heard the sound of water flowing in the washroom. It seemed like Song Jia was bathing in the washroom.

Xu Taiping yawned. He was a bit tired, so he closed his eyes and slowly tried to get some sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Taiping heard the sound of the bathroom door opening, and then he heard the sound of the closet opening.

Xu Taiping didn't open his eyes. He simply closed them, and was on the verge of falling asleep.

"You really slept on the sofa? "Such a gentleman?" Song Jia stood in front of Xu Taiping and asked curiously.

Xu Taiping opened his eyes and looked at Song Jia.

Song was wearing his shirt, shorts and slippers.

"Mm, let's rest early. Don't call me when you're up, I'm sleepy." Xu Taiping said.

"Mm. Alright." Song Jia nodded her head and climbed onto the bed. She did not take off her clothes and directly covered herself with the blanket.

People who drank too much were the most likely to get sleepy.

Song Jia was a little worried that Xu Taiping would sneak into her bed while she was sleeping, but before five minutes even passed, she was already asleep.

After sleeping for who knows how long, Song Jia heard a sound and woke up in a daze.

A faint headache and thirst made Song Jia feel uncomfortable. She turned around, wanting to continue sleeping, but found that the sound had become clearer.

Song Jia sat up on the bed and looked at the sofa.

The voice came from the sofa.

Xu Taiping, who was sitting on the sofa, frowned and hugged his arms. His body was trembling slightly as if he was very cold.

Song Jia yawned, picked up the cup on the bed, and walked to Xu Taiping's side, covering him with the blanket.

"How strange, it's not that cold either." Song Jia said softly before she went back to her bed and lay down once more.

He originally thought that Xu Taiping wouldn't be trembling after he had given him a cup of wine. Unexpectedly, after lying down for five minutes, Song Jia still heard her shivering voice.

She stood up and walked over to Xu Taiping with a frown. Then she reached out and touched his head.

With this touch, her hand withdrew as if it had been electrocuted.

Xu Taiping's body was extremely cold, as if he had just come out of an ice cave.

"Hey, what happened to you?!" Song Jia asked excitedly.

Xu Taiping frowned but didn't say anything.

"Shit, I have to take you to the hospital." As Song Jia said this, she took out her cell phone to make a call. Unexpectedly, Xu Taiping's ice-cold hand grabbed hers.

"It's fine. It will be fine soon." Xu Taiping said.

"You're already so cold, how can you not go to the hospital?" Song Jia asked angrily.

"I said it's okay. It's been a long time, but I haven't done it in a long time. It will be all right soon. " Xu Taiping said while trembling.

"It's really true..." Song Jia looked at Xu Taiping in annoyance. Xu Taiping's body was still trembling, and she quickly turned on the air conditioner to turn on the heat. Soon, Song Jia began to feel hot all over, and even though she was sweating profusely, Xu Taiping still felt cold all over.

"Hot on me, why are you still so cold!" As Song Jia spoke anxiously, her eyes suddenly lit up. She lifted Xu Taiping's blanket and walked to his side. With her back facing Xu Taiping, she laid down on the sofa.

"I'm hot, hold me!" Song Jia said.

Xu Taiping reached out his hands from behind and hugged Song Jia. Mobile users please browse and read, better reading experience.
