Chapter 22

The scorching temperature and the smell of alcohol made her pretty face turn red, as if it were boiling water.

Cao Weiguo asked with concern: "Is Sister Xiaoe okay?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine. Thank you, Weiguo."

Lou Xiaoe stood up with a flushed face and a racing heart.

Cao Weiguo, however, couldn't bear to let go, holding Lou Xiaoe in a daze.

The drunken Cao Weiguo looked at the pretty and moving Lou Xiaoe as if he were seeing a fairy.

"Weiguo."

Lou Xiaoe pushed Cao Weiguo with a blushing face and a racing heart.

Cao Weiguo finally came to his senses and let go reluctantly.

Lou Xiaoe came out of his embrace, her face as red as a ripe apple, and a different feeling sprouted in her heart.

Lou Xiaoe said shyly: "Weiguo, help me lift Xu Damao to the bed."

Cao Weiguo nodded groggily, and he and Lou Xiaoe helped Xu Damao up, one on each side.

After putting Xu Damao on the bed, Lou Xiaoe said: "You sit for a while; I'll go get you the hangover soup."

Lou Xiaoe turned and left, and soon returned with a steaming bowl of bean sprout hangover soup.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaoe."

Cao Weiguo took the hangover soup, not caring if it was hot, and brought it to his mouth.

"Weiguo, it's hot!"

"Hoo! It's delicious! Thank, thank you, Sister Xiaoe!"

"I'll be going back now."

Returning the empty bowl to Lou Xiaoe, Cao Weiguo left in a flustered state.

"Slow down, don't fall!"

Lou Xiaoe chased him to the door and shouted with concern. ===== CHAPTER 24 =====
