Li Wanji flicked her hand, and three more seats appeared at the bottom of the courtyard. She smiled and motioned for the three of them to take a seat.

As the three of them sat down, the dinner continued with great enthusiasm. The music was melodious, the dancing was graceful, and the atmosphere gradually reached a climax as the cups and glasses were clinked.

Li Wanji raised her glass to toast everyone: "I am very happy to meet three talented people today. We will all be one family in the future. Come, let us drink this glass together to celebrate this wonderful night."

Everyone raised their glasses in response and drank from the cup together. Yan Chi, Xiao Yunsheng and Liu Su also raised their glasses to show their respect to Li Wanji.

Although the matter of selecting a son-in-law would help Li Wanji improve her cultivation and enhance the overall strength of the Wangchuan League, very few of the husbands were happy.

Although they appeared to be drinking with Lee Wan-hee, they each had their own thoughts in their minds.

The three newcomers believed that although Li Wanji was beautiful, her mind was unfathomable and her methods were cruel, and she was definitely not a good match.

Although becoming one of her husbands could gain her favor and promotion, one also had to endure the jealousy and competition from other husbands, as well as the risk that Lee Wan-hee might change her mind at any time.

What's more, there are already so many outstanding men around Li Wanji, and it is still unknown whether they can gain a foothold among them.

However, a group of former husbands-in-law believed that the addition of these three newcomers would undoubtedly intensify the competition among them.

Originally, Li Wanji's love was as short-lived as a flash in the pan, and now with the newcomer, their position is even more precarious.

However, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they could not show it on their faces. They could only swallow their bitterness and greet Li Wanji with a smile.

As the dinner was drawing to a close, Lee Wan-hee stood up and prepared to leave. Her figure seemed particularly ethereal in the moonlight, as if she would disappear at any moment.

Gong Yihuai saw this and looked at the seat next to him: "Nanxing, Wanji is drunk, you should send her back to rest!"

Ever since he married into the Li family, everyone has viewed him as a thorn in their side. The fact that he was the only one favored by Wan Ji made him the target of public criticism.

Even the husbands who had no contact with him on weekdays looked at him with jealousy and hostility.

Therefore, Gong Yihuai urgently needed to find an "ally" to disperse his firepower, and Jiuluo Nanxing was undoubtedly the best choice.

Jiuluo Nanxing is extremely powerful and has a high status in the Wangchuan Alliance. He also has a close relationship with Li Wanji. It is most appropriate for him to send Li Wanji back.

It also lets other people know that I have always been on good terms with Jiuluo Nanxing, so they should consider their own weight before trying to trip me up.

Nan Xing glanced at Gong Yihuai and turned her gaze to Li Wanji. Her face was slightly flushed and her eyes were a little blurry. She was indeed a little drunk.

He stood up, walked to Li Wanji, and asked softly: "Wanji, are you okay?"

Li Wanji tilted her head slightly and looked at Nanxing, with a smile on her lips: "Nanxing, it's you. I'm fine, just a little drunk."

Nan Xing nodded and held her with his hand: "I'll take you back to rest."

Li Wanji did not refuse and leaned gently on Nanxing's shoulder. The two left the courtyard together and disappeared in the light and shadow.

The camp was noisy and it was difficult to rest peacefully, so Jiuluo Nanxing took Li Wanji to a side hall of Jiuluo Palace. The environment here was quiet and suitable for quiet rest.

Jiuluo Nanxing carefully helped the slightly drunk Li Wanji into the bathroom, gently undressed her complicated dress, revealing her jade-like skin.

He used his spiritual power to adjust the water temperature, making sure it wouldn't burn her, before he began to bathe her gently.

Li Wanji seemed to be quite drunk, her eyes were slightly closed, and her cheeks were slightly flushed, which made her look even more charming. Jiuluo Nanxing tried to make his movements as gentle as possible, not wanting to disturb her sweet dream.

He slowly helped Li Wanji take off her headdress, and her long hair floated in the water, as soft and smooth as black silk.

Then he put some shampoo into his palms and gently massaged her hair to wash her hair. The bathroom was filled with a fresh fragrance, which was refreshing.

Li Wanji seemed to enjoy this gentle service and a comfortable smile appeared on her face.

Seeing her so happy, Jiuluonanxing couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and an extremely gentle smile spread across his face.

After bathing, Jiuluo Nanxing gently picked up Li Wanji and dried her body and hair with a soft bath towel.

Her body was light and soft, as if it had no weight. He put soft nightgown on her and laid her gently on the bed.

Li Wanji turned over in bed, found a comfortable position and continued to sleep.

Jiuluo Nanxing sat beside the bed, quietly looking at her peaceful sleeping face. He felt that she was both cute and confused, without any dignity and shrewdness of a wife.

He couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her cheek, then tucked the quilt for her to make sure she could sleep comfortably.

Jiuluo Nanxing left the room quietly and told the maids to serve carefully and not to disturb Li Wanji's rest.

After arranging everything, he left the side hall with peace of mind and returned to his tent to deal with the mountain of military affairs.

The next day, Li Wanji slept for a long time before waking up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked at the unfamiliar environment around her, and was stunned for a moment.

Recalling last night's dinner and what happened afterwards, she was a little dazed. She remembered that she drank a lot of wine and was a little drunk.

Was it Jiuluo Nanxing who sent her back? She didn't quite remember.

"Master Li, you are awake." A maid walked into the room and bowed to her. "Master He has ordered that a cup of sobering soup be brought to you when you wake up."

Li Wanji nodded, took the hangover soup handed to her by the maid, and drank it all in one gulp. The warm soup flowed into her stomach, making her feel much better.

"Was it Nanxing who sent me back last night?" Li Wanji asked.

"Yes, Master Li," the maid replied, "You were a little drunk last night, and it was Master He who took care of you personally."

Li Wanji vaguely recalled Jiuluonanxing's gentle movements and warm embrace at night, and ripples of emotion appeared in her heart.

Jiuluo Nanxing has always been cold and aloof, and it seems that he only reveals his rare gentleness when he is alone with himself.

"Where is Nanxing now?" Li Wanji asked, her tone revealing a hint of expectation that she herself was not even aware of.

"Lord He is handling military affairs. He has instructed that if you need anything, you can come to him at any time." The maid replied respectfully.

After the meal, Li Wanji came to Jiuluo Nanxing's tent. She gently opened the curtain and saw Jiuluo Nanxing sitting at the desk, concentrating on reviewing the military newspaper.

The soft light of the Nether Lamp was reflected on his handsome profile, adding a touch of mystery and depth to his temperament.

Hearing the sound of the curtain, Jiuluo Nanxing looked up and saw that it was Li Wanji. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then turned into a warm smile.

"Wan Ji, you are here."

Li Wanji walked up to him, her eyes fell on the military newspaper in his hand, and smiled: "It seems that you are busy again, do you need my help?"

Jiuluo Nanxing shook his head, put down the pen in his hand, stood up and offered his seat: "Although there are many military affairs, I can still handle them. You drank a lot of wine last night, how do you feel today?"

Li Wanji sat down on his chair, feeling his body temperature remaining on the chair, her heart warmed, and she smiled and said, "It's okay now, thanks to your care."

Jiuluo Nanxing poured her a cup of hot tea and handed it to her: "This is the spiritual tea I just brewed. It has the effect of refreshing the brain. You can try it."

Li Wanji took the teacup and took a sip. She could feel the fragrance of the tea, which was refreshing. She nodded in appreciation: "Good tea, your tea making skills are getting better and better."

Jiuluo Nanxing smiled calmly: "As long as you like it."
