C72 Ling You Changed

"Is that so?" Bai Siyun bit her lower lip, looking a little disappointed.

"Siyun, don't..."

Bai Siyun shook her head lightly. "Meng Yang, you don't have to comfort me. Ling is in trouble. You should be the one who is most hurt. You didn't tell us just now because you didn't want us to be sad, and we were still forcing you to tell us. You should be the one who should be comforted."

Meng Yang held Bai Siyun tightly in his arms. "Thank you, Siyun."

Bai Siyun also leaned her head lightly on Meng Yang's shoulder. "Meng Yang, I promise you that I will never leave you."

"I promise you that I will never leave you either."

"Meng Yang."

"Hmm?"

Bai Siyun slowly closed her eyes. Meng Yang also received a signal and kissed Bai Siyun's lips lightly.

After a long time, their lips parted, and a faint red glow appeared on Bai Siyun's face.

When Meng Yang and Bai Siyun returned to Fu Hua's place, they found Fu Hua sitting alone on the grass with a jug of wine in his hand.

Fu Hua saw that Meng Yang and Bai Siyun had returned and threw a jug of wine at Meng Yang and Bai Siyun. "Come, boss, let's drink."

This was the first time Meng Yang had seen Fu Hua drink. Meng Yang had always thought that Fu Hua didn't drink, but he didn't expect Fu Hua to have so much wine in his hands, and it seemed like his alcohol tolerance was not bad.

Meng Yang also imitated Fu Hua and drank a mouthful of wine. A strong spiciness filled his mouth, and Meng Yang was instantly choked. He couldn't stop coughing.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, this wine is really delicious."

"Hehe, of course. This wine was brewed by my master."

"Oh? Your master can brew wine?"

"Of course. I remember that when I was thirteen, my master started drinking with me. Every time, I got drunk. In my memory, I have never won."

"I never thought that you would drink wine."

Fu Hua rolled his eyes at Meng Yang. "You need a partner to drink. What's the fun in drinking with a man like you?"

Meng Yang rubbed his nose awkwardly. "Although your reason is hard to refute, don't say it out loud. But why did you suddenly start drinking again?"

"I was drinking to relieve my worries. I am not like you, who has a beauty to comfort me when I am sad. I am now alone."

"Fu Hua, you …"

Fu Hua shook the wine pot in his hand. "Boss, come, don't say anything. Now, it's time to drink. Come, let me toast you and your wife."

Fu Hua raised his head and took a big gulp. Meng Yang and Bai Siyun also sat on the ground. Meng Yang also took a big gulp. Although Bai Siyun also took a big gulp, her drinking movements were more refined.

"Alright! Boss, come, let's drink to our heart's content today. When we get drunk, we will forget all the troubles. We still have to live. Since we can't avoid tragedy, let's reduce the sorrow after the tragedy."

Meng Yang did not know how to drink, but just as Fu Hua had said, he had been through too many things recently. From his master being caught and Ling being taken back, one incident after another had left him mentally and physically exhausted. Drinking was probably the best option for him right now.

The three of them drank from dusk until late at night. Meng Yang did not know how much he had drank, but he had already thrown his wine pot on the ground. Fu Hua had already been drunk and lying on the ground. Only Meng Yang and Bai Siyun were still drinking. Bai Siyun did not show any signs of being drunk, but Meng Yang was already so drunk that he could not even speak clearly.

Finally, Meng Yang could not take it anymore and slowly fell to the ground. Bai Siyun quickly caught him and let him lean on her body.

"Hey ~ ~" Bai Siyun could not bear to see Meng Yang like this. She had seen Meng Yang's experiences during this period of time. Bai Siyun knew that Meng Yang was not feeling well, but Meng Yang chose to hide these feelings in his heart. Drinking was also a way for him to vent.

Bai Siyun closed her eyes and gently patted Meng Yang's back. When Bai Siyun opened her eyes again, the surrounding environment changed. A large lake appeared in front of her, and a big tree with pink leaves appeared behind her. Grass and a bright moon hung in the sky. On the other side of the lake was the vague outline of a mountain. The moon reflected on the surface of the lake, and the big tree and the mountain were the scenes in Bai Siyun's mind. Bai Siyun leaned against the tree. At this moment, the surroundings were so quiet.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully reaching the level of a Contract Guardian. I, Mi Jiaer, will be waiting for your return."

Of course, Meng Yang, who was already unconscious, did not hear the system's notification.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the space in front of Bai Siyun, and the crack grew bigger and bigger. Then, a familiar figure walked out from the crack. It was Ling.

Bai Siyun's eyes widened in shock. She was so excited that she almost cried out. Ling put her index finger in front of her mouth and made a silent gesture.

Bai Siyun swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. "Ling?"

Ling smiled at Bai Siyun and said, "Hehe, Siyun, it's been a while since we last met, and you don't recognize me anymore?"

"Is it really you? Didn't Meng Yang say that something happened to you? He said that it was still unknown whether he could see you again in the future. Why did you suddenly come back?"

"Hehe, I did have something happen to me before, but it's fine now. Didn't you see? The way I appeared this time is different from before."

Bai Siyun looked at Ling and said, "Why do I feel that it's not just the way I appeared that changed, but that you have also become different."

"Oh? I'm different from before? What am I different about?" As she spoke, Ling turned around in a circle.

Bai Siyun shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I just feel that you have become different. As for what exactly is different, I really don't know."

"Feeling?"

"That's right. I feel that you have changed."

Ling curled her lips and pointed at Meng Yang. "How much did he drink?"

Bai Siyun removed the projection of her sea of consciousness and pointed to the empty wine pot on the table. "About two-thirds."

"He drank so much?"

Bai Siyun smiled slightly. "That's right. If something happened to you, he would be very sad. He drank with Fu Hua with all his might."

Ling also smiled. "Is that so?"

"I woke him up. He will be very happy when you come back."

Bai Siyun was about to wake Meng Yang up when Ling stopped her. "Let him have a good sleep. He has been under a lot of pressure during this period of time. It is a good time to let him have a good rest."
