"Your ear wound hasn't healed yet, so you shouldn't drink."

Shen Li looked at the wine glass in his hand and smelled the aroma of the wine. This wine was really good, but he could only look at it and not drink it. This was not allowed.

"It's okay. It's just a small wound. I have the medicine you sent me. It doesn't hurt anymore."

Qin Yu looked at her anxious look with amusement, flicked her earlobe again, and let go of her hand as if nothing was wrong.

Shen Li hurriedly drank the wine in the glass. It was mellow and lingering on her lips and teeth. It was good wine. Actually, although she could drink, she didn't like wine. It was just the smell of the wine that made her eager to try it.

After drinking it, she poured herself another glass.

Liu Dahua had asked Shen Li about his pierced ears yesterday and knew that it was Qin Yu who pierced them. She looked at the seemingly heartless Shen Li, and then looked at Qin Yu. Just like usual, she couldn't tell anything. It seemed like there was nothing going on between these two people, but it also seemed like there was something going on.

She wanted to help pierce Shen Li's ears, but Shen Li was afraid of the pain, so she unexpectedly let Qin Yu do it instead.

Shen Xing had already drunk several glasses of wine at this time: "Ali, when did you get your ears pierced?"

Only then did he realize that Shen Li was speechless: "Yesterday."

"You haven't worn it all the time because you're afraid of the pain."

"You can't wear it even if you want to."

"Oh." Then Shen Xing looked at Qin Yu again: "Qin Yu, Ali is my sister, it's not your turn to care."

"I'm the doctor."

"Oh, so what?"

"Do you still want to drink this wine?"

"I think so. Do you have any more? I tell you, this wine is really good."

"Then let's continue drinking. I have more if you run out of it."

Liu Dahua looked at Shen Xing. He was no match for him at all. He changed the subject and forgot what he had said before.

Shen Li was also speechless, but the wine was delicious, so she secretly drank several glasses. Shen Xing was afraid that the wine was gone, so she drank several glasses in succession, and soon she felt dizzy.

Qin Yu, on the other hand, didn't drink many glasses.

After dinner, Liu Dahua took Qin Yueying back to the house, and the two sisters started chatting.

"Sister Dahua, what do you think of our Qin Yu?"

"What do you mean?"

"Chatting? Let's talk."

"Yes, he is good-looking, has good medical skills, and is filial."

"Then do you think he and Ali are a good match?"

Liu Dahua actually had a guess in her mind: "Sister Qin, our friendship is one thing, but Ali's marriage is another. Your Qin Yu is good, but have you forgotten that he didn't like Ali before?"

Qin Yueying looked at her serious expression and also became serious. She originally just wanted to test and see if she agreed or not, but it looked like the situation was not good.

"That was before. I think he likes Ali now."

"Maybe not. They had such a bad argument before, and now he says he likes you. Did he tell you in person?"

Qin Yueying was a little embarrassed when she mentioned it. "That's not the case, but as a mother, how can I not know what my child is like? I can see that he treats Ali differently now."

"Sister, I'll be honest with you. I won't interfere too much in Ali's marriage. She can decide what kind of person she wants to find. But I used to think that Qin Yu was like a sword that could hurt people at any time. Although he has become much calmer now, he still seems like a person with many secrets. I just want Ali to find an ordinary person and live a simple life. I think you can understand my hope as a mother."

Qin Yueying smiled and held Liu Dahua's hand: "I understand. I also hope that Yu'er can live a peaceful life. Sister Dahua, I'm sorry, I'm too selfish. I just like A-li very much, and I see that the two of them get along very well. If I can help them, it might be a good thing."

Liu Dahua held her hand in hers and said, "How can I blame you? I understand your thoughts, but who knows what will happen in the future? Let's just let them take their own course."

The reason why she said this was because she was not sure about Shen Li’s thoughts, but was she really not sure?

"Okay, don't worry, Sister Dahua. Even if they are not together, I will still treat Ali as my daughter."

"Okay, I'm naturally happy to have one more person to love Ali."

After chatting about their children, the two of them turned to things they liked, such as their shared love of women's embroidery, and some gossip. This is what best friends should be like.

In the yard, Shen Xing was already drunk and lying on the table.

"Shen Li, can I call you A Li like my mother?" Qin Yu said.

"Sure." They are so familiar with each other now, so it's okay to call each other more intimately.

"then you……"

Shen Li knew what he was going to say and stopped him hastily: "I just like to call you by your full name." Asking her to call him in a more intimate way was too corny and she couldn't bring herself to say it.

"You know what I'm going to say?"

Shen Li opened his eyes wide and looked at him: "What do you think?"

Qin Yu suddenly smiled, a genuine smile that softened his features: "Then we really are in tune with each other."

"Does this count?"

"nature."

Shen Li smiled and picked up the wine glass: "Drink this glass of wine."

Qin Yu looked at her in confusion.

"As a practice for you, let me think about it. I wish you all the best and that you can realize your dreams." After Shen Li finished speaking, she took the cup and was about to drink it, but when it touched her lips, she stopped: "And return safely." Then she drank it all in one gulp.

Qin Yu also drank it, but his eyes never left Shen Li from beginning to end.

"Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Did you guess it?"

"You said it before, it's not hard to guess."

"Don't worry, with your words, I will take care of myself."

"what?"

Qin Yu didn't explain: "I have something to ask of you."

"You said."

"I can't take my mother on this adventure. She's all alone here. Can you help take care of her for me?"

Shen Li readily agreed: "No problem, don't worry, besides, there is my mother, they have a very good relationship, it may not be my turn."

"Thank you."

"Have you told her that you're leaving? Did she agree to let you leave her here alone?"

Qin Yu looked into the room where Qin Yueying was and said, "She should have guessed it a long time ago, but I don't know whether she wants to follow me or stay."

"then you……"

"I'll make it clear to her."

Shen Li nodded. The hero in the book had started his revenge journey, but now the secret medicine was given by her, and it was unknown how his relationship with Shen Yanyan would develop in the future.

In the original book, he did not bring Shen Yanyan with him because he was afraid that she would be in danger. Later, the two met in Kyoto and she stayed by his side all the time. His status at that time was completely different from what it is now.

"A-Li, take care of yourself. I will leave a few people to secretly protect my mother." Qin Yu took out a whistle: "Keep this. If you need anything, you can blow it. Someone will appear at that time. Just tell him what you want to do."
