Wind Chaser: Rebirth in the 18th Year of the Republic of China

"I'm letting go, be careful."

Shen Jinzhen nodded. She was prepared and would not fall to the ground again.

Wei Ruolai let go of his hand, Shen Jinzhen put one foot on the ground and quickly stood up.

Feeling the emptiness in his arms, his eyes darkened.

"I'll go upstairs first. If you wake up, give the blanket to auntie and let her wash it." Seeing Wei Ruolai lying on the bed still a little sleepy, Shen Jinzhen was embarrassed to let him give the blanket to him directly.

When he thought about the two of them sleeping in the same bed for a night, Jin Zhen felt his heart beating faster and his face turned redder even faster.

She turned around and walked back to her room pretending to be calm.

Wei Ruolai shifted his gaze to himself and found that he was covered with a goose yellow blanket and was sleeping in his teacher's house.

He shook his head vigorously to filter out the tiredness and exhaustion, and then he remembered what happened yesterday.

He followed Master Shen to discuss something with the head of Rheinmetall, and then discovered that Miss Shen was with... Let's not talk about this, as it seemed that he was drunk later, and Master Shen took him directly to his home.

And then--

He didn't know how he managed to sleep with Miss Shen in his arms all night, but it was ultimately his fault. He would go and apologize to Miss Shen when he had time.

Shen Jinzhen returned to the room and smelled a strong smell of alcohol on himself. He immediately took a shower and changed his clothes.

When she went downstairs again, she saw everyone having breakfast, and Wei Ruolai was sitting next to her.

Shen Tunan was a little displeased to see that she came down so late, "Why are you getting up later and later now? When did you come back last night? I didn't see you when I came back."

Shen Jinzhen naturally couldn't tell his brother about his own affairs, so he simply pulled Zheng Hui over to use him as a shield.

"I went on a date with Zheng Hui after get off work last night. Where else could I go? I can't just wander around the streets alone, right?"

Shen Jinzhen spoke so naturally that the two people's faces changed for a moment.

Wei Ruolai paused while peeling the eggs, and Shen Tunan's face darkened.

Although Su Cishu didn't know how Jinzhen and Zheng Hui got together, she noticed that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so she immediately tried to smooth things over, "Jinzhen, come over and have dinner. Auntie made your favorite red date and lotus seed porridge today. Drink more."

Shen Jinzhen also knew that her sister-in-law was helping her, so she smiled and agreed.

The meal was unusually silent. Wei Ruolai sat next to her. The faint scent of roses lingered around him, slowing down his hands.

Shen Tunan was too lazy to talk about Jin Zhen anymore. He was more worried about Ruo Lai.

"Go to my room later, take a shower and change clothes before going to work."

Wei Ruolai reeked of alcohol, and it would be easy for him to be criticized if he showed up at the central bank like this. It would be closer to take a shower at his place before going to work, and it would be okay to use his clothes first, as it wasn't like he couldn't wear them just because someone else had worn them once.

"Teacher, it's really not necessary. I can hold on for a day."

Although he knew that he smelled bad, Wei Ruolai did not dare to disturb the teacher too much. He was already grateful that the teacher brought him back yesterday and gave him a place to sleep.

Shen Tunan thought that he was reluctant to stay here because of what happened to Jin Zhen, so he said to Shen Jin Zhen, who was still drinking porridge, "Go drink in your room."

Shen Jinzhen looked puzzled. Why was her brother so angry so early in the morning? However, Wei Ruolai was still beside her. She stood up without saying a word and prepared to go upstairs with her bowl.

"Miss Shen, you don't have to." Wei Ruolai held Shen Jinzhen's arm, and when he saw her looking at him, he let go of her hand and turned to look at Shen Tunan, "Teacher Shen, you don't have to treat Miss Shen like this because of me."
