Chapter 667: 667, Boss, just moved in like this
Alcohol on the wind? It couldn’t be Shi Yuhuan.
The Shi Yuhuan she knew never drank. Although he did consume alcohol, he did so sparingly, never enough to give off an alcoholic smell. His scent was always clean and refreshing.
Therefore, it couldn’t be him. It must be her longing, making her imagine his call, making her think he asked her to wait and that he would definitely come for her.
Really?
Despite her thoughts, Song Qinghuan’s hand unconsciously turned the door handle.
The tall figure outside suddenly came into her view.
It wasn’t the person she expected. Song Qinghuan’s joy hadn’t had the chance to dissipate before it turned into surprise.
She looked in disbelief at Li Chengyun, reeking of alcohol outside. “Big brother, how come it’s you?”
Li Chengyun stared at her, his face expressionless. “If not me, who did you expect?”
“No…” Song Qinghuan bit her lip.
“Shi Yuhuan?” Li Chengyun teased seemingly jokingly.
“…” Song Qinghuan pouted, remaining silent.
“It’s already ten o’clock, why aren’t you asleep?” Li Chengyun said as he pushed open the door and entered. He gripped Song Qinghuan’s arm and led her to the living room. “It’s windy outside, if someone comes, you can ask the butler to open the door.”
The door was left open. Song Qinghuan subconsciously tried to reach it but soon gave up.
She’d ask the butler to close it later.
Song Qinghuan laughed, “A friend of mine came to see me. She’s been staying with me and accompanying me these past few days. She went out to meet a friend today but hasn’t returned. I’m waiting for her. Are you staying the night?”
“Hmm!” Li Chengyun responded indifferently.
At that moment, Adai helped a man in a black leisure suit into the room. The man seemed quite drunk, his head lowered, hidden by Adai.
From her position, Song Qinghuan couldn’t discern his figure or face.
Startled, she took a step to move toward Adai, “Who is… ”
Li Chengyun’s tall figure suddenly intervened, blocking her path as well as her field of vision: “My friend’s drunk. We’ll both be staying here tonight. You don’t need to worry. I’ll have Adai take him directly to the guest room so we don’t disturb your rest.”
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her pretty red lips gently biting down. Song Qinghuan felt apprehensive and strange, turning her head to get a clearer look.
But as soon as she turned her head, Li Chengyun scolded: “Song Qinghuan, I’m talking to you. Looking around like that is very impolite.”
“Oh, I understand!” Song Qinghuan uttered apprehensively.
Li Chengyun added seriously: “You’re pregnant. Don’t go to sleep too late, understand?”
“Oh!” Song Qinghuan responded softly. Then she added: “My friend will be back shortly. I’ll go to sleep as soon as she returns.”
Hearing this, Li Chengyun didn’t say anything else. He turned around, took a few strides, and headed upstairs.
Adai and the drunk man had vanished. She didn’t know which guest room they entered.
“Don’t take the room next to the master bedroom. That’s where my friend is staying,” she called out from downstairs.
Getting no response, Song Qinghuan uttered a short sound of annoyance, clutching her waist before continuing to watch TV on the couch.
Not long after, Gu Youli returned home, also slightly drunk.
Song Qinghuan was exasperated, “What’s wrong with you all today? Why are all of you drinking? Don’t you know that I, being heavily pregnant, can’t stand the smell of alcohol?”
