Chapter 793 A Drunkard Since Childhood Bai family and Lu Family’s Side Story

When Bai Yunan returned to the Bai Residence, it was already late at night. The place was quiet.

He didn't inform anyone about his return in advance, but Aunt Liu had left a light on in the hall for him.

After Bai Jingshu and An Xia's wedding, they stayed at home for a while before going back to Yunzhou City. Bai Yeqi was busy with something, so he rarely came back home.

It was said that he had found a new partner.

Bai Yunan couldn't help but sneer at that thought. Both of his younger brothers had gotten married and found a new love life. He was the only person staying single.

It was no wonder that his parents would nag at him as soon as he came home.

If he had informed them in advance that he was coming back, his parents would definitely set up a blind date for him.

That's why he had to come back quietly late at night.

Work alone was hectic enough, and now he had to endure being nagged at home. No matter how energetic he was, it could be tiring for him sometimes.

He quietly entered his room without disturbing anyone. He let out a sigh of relief as soon as he entered the room.

Turning on the light, he casually threw his coat on the couch and began unbuttoning his shirt to go to the bathroom.

However, he noticed that there was a bump beneath the bedsheet.

Someone's sleeping in his bed?

He usually folded the bedsheets neatly, even at home. He walked over to the bed in large strides and pulled the bedsheets down to reveal Lu Qingyou's face, which turned red due to the heat beneath the bedsheet.

Bai Yunan frowned. What is she doing here? He approached a bit closer and caught a faint whiff of alcohol. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Bai Yunan's face turned cold, but he placed the bedsheet back gently.

She was stepping up her games. She didn't even call him to bother him anymore, let alone ask him out for meals on weekends. Instead, she came to his house to drink and even slept in his bed while he was away.

It was most likely that the old man had brought her over to drink again.

She had been a drunkard since childhood. He wondered why she liked drinking so much. Bai Yunan stared at her face for a while as his throat suddenly felt dry.

It was probably because the heating in the room was too strong, and he wasn't used to the temperature

yet.

So, he turned and went into the bathroom. After taking a shower, he found a blanket and lay down on the couch.

The couch was quite cramped, so he felt uncomfortable. Although he slept until dawn, he kept having strange dreams.

Lu Qingyou was hungover but shared good alcohol with the old man. Thus, she woke up early and didn't have much of a headache.

She got out of bed and saw a man lying on the sofa, so she quickly shrank back.

Why is Yunan back? Didn't Aunt Liu say that he wouldn't come back last night?

As a soldier, Bai Yunan was always alert. He was used to waking up early too. At that moment, he opened his eyes to see her sitting on the bed in her fluffy pajamas while looking at him blankly.

Her bangs were messy and her eyes appeared groggy. She was dazed. People tend to react slowly when they woke up.

He didn't pay attention to her and kneaded his brow. Then, he got up and went into the bathroom.

Hearing the sound of water coming from the bathroom, she finally came back to her senses.

She got up and sat on the sofa, where the warmth of Bai Yunan's presence still lingered.

He quickly came out of the bathroom, neatly dressed.

Lu Qingyou had always admired Bai Yunan's speed in dressing and grooming. Five minutes was all he needed.

"Yunan, why did you come back?" She picked up a pillow from the side and hugged it, feeling less awkward.

Ever since Bai Jingshu and An Xia's wedding, she hadn't seen Bai Yunan often. Even when they did meet, they only exchanged simple greetings.

It had been a long time since the two of them had been in a closed space together, especially in his room.

He answered concisely, "It's the weekend."

He would come back home every other weekend.

"Oh." Lu Qingyou did not know what else to say.

When she used to pester Bai Yunan often, she didn't think it was a big deal that he was sparing with his words. Now that they didn't see each other often, she felt his aloof attitude.

Although she had tried her best not to care, she still felt a sense of loss.

Bai Yunan looked down at her from above and saw her expression clearly. He was about to say something but suddenly stopped.

Although Lu Qingyou was wearing a coral fleece pajama set, Bai Yunan had seen her enough to know that she wasn't wearing anything underneath.

She was always careless in front of him, and she didn't bother to care about these things. He had mentioned it to her a few times, but every time he did, she would impatiently say that she was aware of it. She would get angry at times too.

He felt helpless. He had watched her grow up, and she was also classmates with Cheng Qiulu. To him, Lu Qingyou was just like a younger sister to him, just like Cheng Qiulu.

He pondered for a moment and then put on a serious face. "Lu Qingyou, do you just sleep anywhere after drinking? Don't you know how to protect yourself?"

Lu Qingyou was already feeling a bit down. When she heard this, her face turned pale.

Did he mean that I shouldn't have slept in his bed?

The tip of her nose felt sour as she pursed her lips while looking at him. "It's just sleeping on your bed. Is it necessary to be so angry? Don't you know that you can sleep in Jingshu's room when you come back? You could have woken me up at the very least!"

It's not like I never slept in his room before, so why is he so angry? He must've found someone out there, just like the people online said.

Bai Yunan furrowed his brow. "That's not what I meant."

"What do you mean then?" Lu Qingyou stood up and quickly walked out. "If you're not happy, I won't stay at your house anymore. It's not like I'm dying to live in your house."

He quickly caught up with her and pulled her back. "Are you just going to leave like this?"

"What else can I do? Let you scold me again and then leave?" She couldn't break free, so she glared at him.

Her pouting face tickled his urge to laugh, but he held it back. That was her habit. Her cheeks puffed up when she was angry.

Bai Yunan's tone softened a bit. "Change your clothes before going back."

Lu Qingyou lowered her head to glance at her clothes. She realized something, and her face turned even redder.

It wasn't that she wasn't aware of the boundaries between men and women, but she didn't expect him to come back in the middle of the night.

Another reason was that she never cared about these things in front of Bai Yunan. After all, when she was a child, Bai Yunan even changed her diapers...

Let's stop thinking about the past, she thought to herself, and her face became even redder.

He was still holding onto her. She glared at Bai Yunan fiercely. "Let me go."

He then let go of her. As soon as Lu Qingyou regained freedom, she rushed into the bathroom like a

rabbit, hugging her clothes.

She quickly came out again, neatly dressed. She didn't say a word to him before running away.
