The master of metaphysics destroyed the world in the book after he traveled through it

Chapter 179 Celebrating Liu Guihua’s Birthday

~

At around six o'clock, Meng Jianping came back with Qin Zongwu and Yu Zhenghai.

Qin Ze and Qin Mu also followed Meng Sanbao and Meng Sibao to the Meng family.

Ruan Zhao had guessed that Qin Zongwu would come, so he was not surprised to see Qin Zongwu.

However, she didn't speak to Qin Zongwu the whole time, and didn't even look at him.

After the food was served, Hu Xiu and Meng Jianping asked everyone to sit down.

Meng Jianping poured a glass of wine for Qin Zongwu and Yu Zhenghai, "Come, let's have a good drink today."

Hu Xiu also took out a bottle of fruit wine and poured a glass for Ruan Zhao and Wu Chunyan. "Zhao Zhao, Chunyan, let's drink some too."

Ruan Zhao quickly refused. "I don't want to drink. I can't drink."

But Hu Xiu refused to let her go. "It's okay. This is fruit wine. My eldest brother brought it back from outside. It won't make you drunk."

Ruan Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, picked up the cup and smelled it.

Well, it tastes different from white wine.

But to be on the safe side, she refused. "Sister Xiu, I really can't drink alcohol. Just give me some water."

"Oh, it's okay. Today is a happy day. Just drink a little. It's okay to get drunk."

Hu Xiu said, and simply picked up the wine glass in front of Ruan Zhao and handed it to her lips. "Try it, this wine is really not intoxicating."

Seeing Hu Xiu's enthusiastic face, Ruan Zhao couldn't refuse, so he took the wine glass and took a sip.

I thought it would have the same spicy taste as the white wine I drank last time, but as soon as it entered my throat, Ruan Zhao's eyes lit up. "Hmm, this wine is quite sweet."

Hu Xiu smiled, "I didn't lie to you, this is fruit wine, it's not intoxicating."

Ruan Zhao nodded and took another sip. "Hmm. It doesn't taste like alcohol at all."

Meng Jianping, who was sitting across the table, saw this scene and gave Qin Zongwu a look that seemed to indicate that he was seeking credit.

Qin Zongwu raised his glass towards Meng Jianping and the two clinked glasses.

Soon, the dinner table became lively.

Hu Xiu and Wu Chunyan chatted and laughed while drinking with Ruan Zhao. The three women drank more happily than the men.

After drinking two glasses, Ruan Zhao found that he was not drunk at all, so he relaxed.

Among the people at the table, only Liu Guihua, the birthday girl, was the quietest.

Because Liu Guihua was made of paper and couldn't eat at all, she said that she had eaten a little in advance and couldn't eat anymore, so she told them to eat and not to worry about her.

Seeing that Liu Guihua really didn't want to eat, everyone stopped trying to persuade her. They just toasted her with a glass of wine and said some birthday wishes.

Liu Guihua looked at Ruan Zhao, then took a symbolic sip of wine and said nothing more.

The meal lasted until 7:30 in the evening, and it was already dark outside.

Ruan Zhao suddenly stood up, pointed at Qin Mu and said, "Xiao Ze, why are you shaking so much?"

Qin Mu couldn't help laughing out loud, "Mom, it's not me who's shaking, it's you. And, I'm Qin Mu."

"Huh?" Ruan Zhao shook his head and wanted to get closer to Qin Mu to take a look, but his feet slipped and he fell to the side.

Qin Zongwu had been keeping an eye on Ruan Zhao. Seeing that she was about to fall, he quickly reached out and held her. "She's drunk. Let's stop here for now."

After he finished speaking, he put his arm around Ruan Zhao's shoulders and helped her walk out.

Meng Jianping and Hu Xiu looked at each other, smiled meaningfully, and did not see them out.

As the host, Meng Jianping symbolically shouted, "Oh, then please go slower. We won't send you off."

After leaving the Meng family, Qin Zongwu let Qin Ze and Qin Mu go home by themselves, while he picked up Ruan Zhao and sent her back to the dormitory.

The longer the time went on, the stronger the aftereffects of the alcohol became, and Ruan Zhao was already becoming dizzy.

Qin Zongwu suddenly hugged her. In a daze, Ruan Zhao could only smell the familiar smell from her dream. She subconsciously hugged his neck tightly and murmured, "You're here?"

Qin Zongwu lowered his eyes and glanced at Ruan Zhao. Seeing that she seemed to be dreaming, he couldn't help but wonder what she was dreaming about.

When they arrived at the dormitory door, Qin Zongwu took the key from Ruan Zhao, opened the door, and carried her to the bed again.

As soon as he touched the bed, Ruan Zhao suddenly sat up and instinctively began to undress himself, muttering as he did so, "Time to go to bed."

Unfortunately, because she was drunk, her hands were out of control and she couldn't unbutton the clothes after several attempts. She frowned anxiously. "Why can't I unbutton it?"

Qin Zongwu was so annoyed by her drunken appearance that he simply raised his hand to help her untie the knot.

Unfortunately, Ruan Zhao refused to cooperate at all and kept swaying from side to side, causing Qin Zongwu to have to spend a lot of effort to take off her coat.

Qin Zongwu was so exhausted that sweat started to form on his forehead. He took off his coat and unbuttoned the collar of his shirt. Then he bent down to take off Ruan Zhao's shoes and helped her lie down. Only then did Ruan Zhao finally calm down.

Qin Zongwu sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Ruan Zhao's face, listening to her shallow breathing, and couldn't help but raise his hand to touch her face.

His fingers were a little rough from years of training, and when they touched Ruan Zhao's skin, Ruan Zhao couldn't help but frown, then raised his hand and grabbed his. "Don't move."

As she said this, she turned over while holding Qin Zongwu's hand and continued to sleep.

Qin Zongwu couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, then lowered his head and moved closer to Ruan Zhao.

He originally wanted to pull his hand away, but Ruan Zhao held him too tightly. He was afraid of waking her up, so he could only let her hold him.

Outside the dormitory

Lu Yan finished work late today. Reason told him that it was too late, so he shouldn't come to see Ruan Zhao today.

But the feeling of missing Ruan Zhao as if it were three years since they last saw each other told him that if he didn't come to see him, he would be so uncomfortable that he wouldn't be able to sleep.

So, Lu Yan came.

Seeing that the lights were not on in the room, Lu Yan knocked on the door gently first.

Qin Zongwu frowned when he heard the voice, but ignored it.

Seeing no response from inside the room, Lu Yan raised his hand and knocked a few more times, then whispered, "Ruan Zhao."

Hearing Lu Yan's voice, Qin Zongwu's face frowned even more.

Glancing at Ruan Zhao, who was lying on the bed without any reaction, he suddenly remembered something and his expression quickly relaxed...

Seeing no one responded, Lu Yan was about to turn around and walk towards the window when he heard the door open.

Lu Yan was delighted and turned back, only to meet Qin Zongwu's somewhat dissatisfied eyes.

Qin Zongwu said coldly as he buttoned his shirt. "Commander Lu, why are you here so late? Is there something wrong?"

Lu Yan: “…”

He didn't want to get angry. He told himself in his heart that this must be another trick played by Qin Zongwu.

But he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart after a long time. "Why are you here? Where is Ruan Zhao?"

Qin Zongwu also looked angry because his good thing was interrupted, "What do you think?"

Lu Yan became even angrier. He raised his foot and was about to go in, but was stopped by Qin Zongwu with a hand.

Lu Yan's voice was squeezed out from between his teeth, "Brigade Commander Qin, this is not your dormitory!"

Qin Zongwu wasn't to be outdone, using the coldest voice and the most vulgar words. "If Commander Lu wants to see how intense the battle will be after we make love, you can come back tomorrow. She's exhausted and needs to rest."

After the experience of the last misunderstanding, Lu Yan didn't believe him at all.

"Get out of the way!" Lu Yan said, pushing Qin Zongwu's arm away and walking in.

Qin Zongwu did not chase after him after he was pushed away, but a wicked smile flashed across his eyes.

Lu Yan strode into the bedroom, then suddenly stopped at the bedroom door.

Looking at the red marks on Ruan Zhao's shoulders exposed outside the quilt, even though he had never succeeded in actual combat, he knew where the marks came from.

The veins on the back of Lu Yan's hand instantly tensed up, and his throat felt like it was being branded with a branding iron, causing him excruciating pain.

He wanted to tell himself that this was Qin Zongwu's trick, but the facts made it impossible for him to convince himself.

However, Ruan Zhao didn't hear Lu Yan come in at all. She was sleeping soundly in bed, which confirmed what Qin Zongwu had just said. They were so busy that she was so tired that she didn't even notice him coming.

In the end, Lu Yan didn't know how he got out.

He only knew that that night was the most difficult night for him...
