Chapter 847: Chapter 0847: Moved [Twentieth Update]

Watching Ye Qiu’s graceful movements as he drank red wine, Xiao Mei immediately knew it—Ye Qiu must drink red wine often, or else how could he be so adept?

"Do you drink often?"

Xiao Mei asked.

"Occasionally!"

Xiao Mei found it hard to believe.

"When I return from France this month, I’ll bring you two bottles of authentic red wine to try!"

"You’re going to France again?"

Xiao Mei was surprised. Hadn’t Ye Qiu just gone to France last month? Why was he going again this month? Was it to continue treating that French patient?

"I’m going to check on my business interests."

Based on the situation last time, Ye Qiu knew that in the mid-to-late part of this month, grapes in France would be harvested in large quantities for winemaking.

Last time, Ye Qiu had already arranged everything with Housekeeper Eugene, so once the training was over, Ye Qiu planned to head over.

As Xiao Mei was about to ask something, two waitress staff arrived with the beef steak and lamb chops they had ordered earlier.

Ye Qiu picked up his knife and fork and began to eat with Xiao Mei.

In the end, Xiao Mei only managed to finish half of her steak, leaving the other half untouched.

"I already had dinner at the cafeteria, so I’m not very hungry."

On top of that, after drinking two glasses of red wine, Xiao Mei felt incredibly full.

Ye Qiu took the remaining half of Xiao Mei’s steak and finished it. Watching Ye Qiu eat the steak without hesitation, Xiao Mei felt her face heat up slightly again.

After finishing their meal, the two rested there for another ten minutes. The waiter brought over dessert and fruits. Ye Qiu and Xiao Mei ate a little, and after calling over the waitress to settle the bill, Xiao Mei went to take care of the payment.

Ye Qiu didn’t say much. When they were outside and getting into his car, Xiao Mei was still quite sober; however, the few glasses of red wine she drank slowly began to take effect.

Right now, her biggest concern was the possibility of being stopped by the police. If they found Ye Qiu driving under the influence, it would be a serious problem.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine!"

Ye Qiu circulated the Primordial Five Emperors Technique once through his body, and the alcohol in his system was completely dissipated. As for the wine he had just drunk, it had already been metabolized and expelled.

Ye Qiu drove away, heading toward Xiao Mei’s apartment.

Arriving at the security booth outside her apartment complex, Ye Qiu parked the car. As they got out of the car, Xiao Mei, still wearing her high heels, felt the effects of the alcohol even more strongly now—to the point of wanting to throw up.

Seeing Xiao Mei like this, Ye Qiu hadn’t expected her to have such a low tolerance for alcohol.

He supported her as they walked to her residence. Upon reaching the elevator, they got in and rode it up to her apartment. Xiao Mei dug out her keys from her bag and unlocked the door. They entered, and Xiao Mei kicked off her heels, walking barefoot toward the couch, where she collapsed into the seat.

By now, she felt like throwing up but couldn’t. The feeling was unbearably uncomfortable.

Earlier, she had watched Ye Qiu drinking red wine, so she drank along with him. That bottle of wine—she had nearly drunk half of it herself. Ye Qiu changed his shoes and came to sit beside Xiao Mei, asking, "Are you feeling very unwell?"

"I feel like I might throw up a little."

Xiao Mei wanted Ye Qiu to make her a bowl of brown sugar water, or even fetch her a bottle of milk—maybe that would help alleviate the effects of the alcohol.

"Close your eyes, and you’ll feel better in five minutes!"

As Xiao Mei closed her eyes, Ye Qiu placed his hand over her lips. In no time, Ye Qiu completely absorbed the alcohol from her system.

When Ye Qiu removed his hand, he said, "Slowly open your eyes now. How do you feel?"

No longer drunk!

No urge to vomit!

No dizziness anymore!

The sensation was utterly amazing, as if she had just taken some miraculous antidote to the alcohol. All the effects of being drunk were entirely gone.

"It feels really good, almost the same as before drinking," she said.

After getting up to wash her face and rinse her mouth in the bathroom, Xiao Mei realized there wasn’t even a trace of alcohol left on her breath.

Sitting back down beside Ye Qiu, he advised, "You don’t have the tolerance for alcohol, so don’t drink next time."

Just like Zhao Rubing, who drank regularly—yet even that night when she had an entire bottle of baijiu with Ye Qiu, she still ended up drunk. Xiao Mei’s tolerance was clearly no better.

Xiao Mei knew he was right. Drinking could lead to trouble.

As Ye Qiu looked at Xiao Mei, and Xiao Mei returned his gaze, Ye Qiu asked, "Did your first treatment have any effect? Do you need another session?"

"Yes, it did—I can feel it’s reduced by a size. Looks like I’ll have to buy new bras again!"

Previously, Xiao Mei had always purchased the largest cup size because of her rather exaggerated proportions. Smaller sizes didn’t fit at all. However, she preferred tighter fitting bras and had chosen D-cup bras, which still weren’t comfortable to wear.

Moreover, she had read in the news that prolonged tight-fitting bras in such areas could increase the risk of breast cancer.

When Ye Qiu glanced at her again, he could see her proportions had decreased, though not drastically—it was subtle, likely because the initial difference had been significant.

"Do you want to continue with the treatment?"

"Of course I do. I want to get down to a B-cup."

Xiao Mei replied.

"C is fine—why insist on B?"

Xiao Mei stayed silent.

Ye Qiu then instructed her to turn her back to him as he prepared for another treatment.

With Xiao Mei closing her eyes again, Ye Qiu began the treatment. It lasted approximately fifteen minutes. When he withdrew his hands, a subtle fragrance still lingered.

Xiao Mei’s face turned an even deeper shade of red. Even the tips of her ears were burning hot.

When Ye Qiu checked the time, it was already 10:30 PM. He knew he should head back and resume his cultivation session.

"Xiao Mei, I’m heading back now. Before I leave for France, I’ll give you another treatment. By then, the effects might be even more noticeable."

Xiao Mei hadn’t expected Ye Qiu to leave.

However, she didn’t ask him to stay longer.

As Xiao Mei got up and, barefoot, escorted Ye Qiu to the door, he told her to go back inside before taking the elevator down.

When Xiao Mei closed the door, she leaned against it, recalling the intimate scene from earlier. The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. After all, she and Ye Qiu had an age gap of several years. She wondered whether a relationship with him could ever lead to a meaningful outcome.

This was her true concern.

She wasn’t opposed to being close to Ye Qiu—in fact, she feared it wouldn’t lead anywhere and would only leave her heartbroken, especially now that she was starting to feel drawn to him.

"Xiao Mei, Xiao Mei, how can you think this way? You must remain reserved!"

She admonished herself silently.

She had almost asked Ye Qiu to stay with her earlier—probably a lingering effect of the alcohol she had consumed!

As Ye Qiu walked out, the two security guards couldn’t help but note that Ye Qiu had driven off instead of staying over with Miss Xiao. However, whatever might have transpired between those two, the guards couldn’t stop their minds from wandering to less innocent possibilities.

Ye Qiu drove away, heading back to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community.

Upon returning to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, he saw that his sister and parents hadn’t come back yet. Ye Qiu went upstairs, washed, changed his clothes, and entered the bathroom to shower again.
