Chapter 278: Alcohol, Temptation and Consequences

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Shen replied truthfully that it was Jin Long who had come to deliver something. Seeing that Gu Zi was willing to talk to him, Su Shen estimated that the situation might not be too bad. The usually cold and distant man was now attentively handing a bottle of vinegar to his little woman.

“Do you like vinegar?” he asked.

Gu Zi took the vinegar bottle from him, being extra careful not to touch his fingers, and replied, “It’s alright. But if you dangle it in front of me and don’t give it to me, I can do without it.” She then extended the vinegar back towards Su Shen.

His wife, having been a broadcaster, certainly had a way with words.

Su Shen had no particular issues with this woman, but he couldn’t help but feel that her temper was getting worse.

He took the vinegar back and said in a low voice, “I didn’t say I wouldn’t give it to you; everything is yours.”Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novelenglish.net . Fɪre.nᴇt

The phrase “everything is yours” could be interpreted in multiple ways. Was he saying that the vinegar belonged to her, or was he implying something more?

Gu Zi picked up a dumpling, dipped it in vinegar, and remembered the strange occurrence from last night. She said, “I don’t know what happened last night.

After I took a shower, I started feeling feverish.”

She was blushing with anger, which made her look adorable. Su Shen couldn’t resist reaching out to ruffle her hair and gave her a peck on the cheek, admitting his fault, “Alright, I understand now. I won’t tease you like that in the future. ”

Seeing his sincere attitude, Gu Zi’s anger subsided a bit. She also recalled something and asked, “Where did the bottle of medicinal wine come from that was in the room where you slept earlier?”

After dinner last night, Su Shen and his eldest son had cleaned the kitchen. Gu Zi had noticed that her daughter and youngest son were playing happily in the living room, so she decided to take advantage of the free time to tidy up the room where Su Shen had previously stayed.

After tidying up, she noticed a glass bottle next to the table, containing a light yellow liquid and various Chinese herbs. When opened, it emitted a mixture of alcohol and medicinal scents.

Gu Zi recognized it as medicinal wine. In her understanding, medicinal wine was a good thing. Drinking a small amount could relieve fatigue, promote blood circulation, and benefit the skin. She had been feeling some back pain and fatigue lately, so she thought it would be nice to have some. Therefore, she decided to drink a small capful of the medicinal wine.

She had felt quite magical afterward. After drinking two caps of the medicinal wine, she had felt warm inside, and her whole body had relaxed. Unexpectedly, not long after taking a shower and going to bed, her body had started to react strangely. She had tossed and turned on the bed, subconsciously pulling down her collar to try and cool down. That’s when everything else happened.

Gu Zi wasn’t entirely sure if it was due to the wine, but she had a vague feeling that it might be related.

She looked at Su Shen, waiting for his response. Su Shen coughed lightly, considering the possibilities, and then said, “That’s Tiger Whip Wine. Jin Long gave it to me. I brought it back, not thinking much of it. You drank it?”

He had only learned about the wine’s properties when he asked Jin Long. It was a medicinal wine with a warming effect on the kidneys. Men who drank it would have increased yang energy, which could lead to heightened libido. Women who consumed it might also experience an increase in sexual desire. Su Shen had a hunch that Gu Zi might have had a bit too much of it.

Gu Zi’s face turned even redder as she muttered, “I drank it. But I won’t drink it recklessly again in the future.”

Although she was angry with Su Shen for teasing her last night, she had to admit that she hadn’t clarified what the wine was, and she had drunk it voluntarily.

Gu Zi fell silent, focusing on her breakfast. She couldn’t finish the three large dumplings left, so she offered them to Su Shen.

She then went upstairs to check on Su Le, who was still sound asleep. After that, she headed to the balcony to hang up some laundry. It was only then that she noticed something new in the yard – a large pigeon coop and a goat.

Gu Zi frowned, wondering why Jin Long had brought these things. She decided to investigate.

After she descended the stairs, Gu Zi made her way directly to the courtyard. The goat was tethered in one corner, emitting a few more bleats and contentedly grazing on the grass.

Gu Zi then returned to inspect the pigeon coop, counting the pigeons within. There were precisely 15 of them, all sporting gray feathers and bright, lively eyes. These birds exhibited remarkable vitality, fearlessly hopping about within the coop despite their unfamiliar surroundings..
