Chapter 471 Eldest Brother's Widow 8
Upon hearing this, Yin Xiao frowned: "Then that proves that we didn't invite enough."
He'll send sixteen people, two shifts, four groups rotating, and he refuses to believe he can give anyone else an opportunity to take advantage!
Ling Yi looked at the man who was worried about her safety and asked, "Are you trying to spy on me?"
Heaven have mercy, Yin Xiao really did it for Ling Yi's own good, not wanting her to go through what happened tonight again.
Being verbally abused to your face is definitely not a pleasant experience; you can tell what happened just by looking at her anger afterwards.
"Don't worry, I'm not ready to commit to a new relationship yet, so you don't need to worry about Yin Hong too soon."
Just as he was worrying, Ling Yi suddenly shot two more arrows at him.
What do you mean by worrying about Yin Hong?
He had no such idea at all, so how could Ling Yi slander him?
He wished Ling Yi would forget Yin Hong as soon as possible and start a new relationship.
Of course, it would be best if he were the male lead in this relationship.
Yin Xiao looked at Ling Yi, who had suddenly become as prickly as a hedgehog, and comforted her: "You know, I didn't mean that. I'm not like my father, I..."
“Of course you’re different. He’s still thinking about Yin Hong.” Ling Yi interrupted Yin Xiao rudely, then realized she had been impolite.
She closed her eyes, as if condemning her own impulsiveness.
"Sorry, I just remembered something unpleasant." Under Yin Xiao's somewhat gloomy expression, Ling Yi personally went to the display cabinet and took a bottle of wine.
The pale yellow liquid was poured into the glass, and Ling Yi raised the glass and nodded towards Yin Xiao from afar: "Consider this my apology."
The moment the strong liquor went down her throat, tears welled up in her eyes from the stimulation.
The tears were initially just small drops, but then they began to fall in torrents a moment later.
Throughout the play, Yin Xiao remained like a puppet, watching the female lead perform.
He watched her break down because of Yin Hong, watched her drink heavily because of Yin Hong, watched her look at his face, which was exactly the same as Yin Hong's, and wept uncontrollably.
He was like a clown, thinking he could win the heroine's smile, but the heroine's gaze remained fixed on the male lead.
But Yin Xiao is not a clown.
Therefore, Yin Hong must die.
A sinister glint flashed in his eyes, but Yin Xiao's tone became even more calm: "Are you going to eat alone? Don't you need me to drink the apology wine with you?"
Ling Yi was stunned for a moment, only to realize that she had only brought one cup.
The servants in the restaurant had already quietly retreated because of their argument. Not wanting to watch their masters' commotion is like the cover of a survival manual for servants in a wealthy family.
Ling Yi refilled the cup in front of her and roughly pushed it towards her: "Here you go!"
Some of the liquor spilled on the table before stopping in front of Yin Xiao.
Gazing at the constantly swaying water, Yin Xiao picked up his cup after a long while, raised it to Ling Yi from afar, and followed her example by drinking the wine in one gulp.
Having completed her toasting task, Ling Yi completely let loose, holding the bottle and drinking sip by sip, before collapsing onto the table in no time.
Yin Xiao stared at her bright red ears for a long time before getting up and walking step by step to her side.
The moment the large, hot hand touched Ling Yi's shoulder through her pajamas, Yin Xiao felt as if he had been burned.
He rolled over, suppressing his wildly beating heart, and whispered, "Ling Yi?"
This was the first time he had called her by her name.
They were in an awkward position with each other, and he didn't want to call him by the title of Yin Hong's subordinate, so the conversation consisted only of an awkward "you" and an even more distant "you".
Now that the name that had been churning in her heart for so long had finally been uttered, how could Yin Xiao not feel happy?
The woman, who was sleeping while holding the bottle, could not sense his surging emotions, nor would she give him any response.
Yin Xiao stared at Ling Yi for a long time, then slowly reached out and took the wine bottle from her hand and put it aside.
With nothing to hinder her, Lingyi slept even more soundly.
His large hand stroked her hair, hooking a strand and gently scratching it against Ling Yi's face, causing the sleeping woman to furrow her brow slightly.
Yin Xiao heard himself chuckle softly and thought he must be incredibly stupid.
After a long while, he picked the person up by the waist and carried them upstairs.
When the woman's face pressed against his neck, Yin Xiao felt her hot breath and even hotter tears.
His newly formed good mood vanished instantly, and his expression turned incredibly cold.
He placed her on the bed, looking down at the woman whose hair was wet with tears. After a long while, he spoke: "I am not him."
He would not be willing to be anyone's substitute, like a stray dog that cannot see the light of day, to have sex with her.
The person on the bed had their eyes tightly closed, but they couldn't stop the tears from welling up in their eyes.
Under these tears, Yin Xiao's anger vanished.
A helpless sigh escaped his lips as he pulled the blanket over the woman and wrapped her up.
The woman, whose face was only partially visible, looked even more pitiful at this moment. Gone was the composure she had put on during the day; she resembled an endearing little girl.
His fingertips involuntarily touched Ling Yi's face, and Yin Xiao heard himself say, "Don't do anything foolish that you'll regret."
He wanted to laugh at himself as he said those words.
From a child laborer to his current position, he has paid not only with sweat but also with morality.
That thing had vanished completely when he was fighting with the rat for bread.
Yet at this moment, facing this person so fragile that he could do whatever he wanted with just a reach out, he actually picked up this thing and even advised her like a saint not to act impulsively.
Yin Xiao, Yin Xiao, you're such a big idiot.
Having given himself a fairly fair assessment, Yin Xiao got up and left the room, leaving only a small lamp shining by Ling Yi's bedside.
After an unknown amount of time had passed since the person left, the person on the bed opened one eye, and after looking around the empty room, opened their eyes completely.
At this moment, Ling Yi's eyes were still red from crying, but there was no trace of sadness in them.
She sniffed the smell of alcohol on herself and frowned.
Although she has a high alcohol tolerance, the taste is still there, which doesn't surprise her.
To her surprise, Yin Xiao remained restrained throughout.
In her plan, she was supposed to "speak the truth after drinking," and pour out her heart while holding a face similar to Yin Hong's.
How could a guy who was lustful at first sight possibly refuse a drunken woman's advances?
Ling Yi didn't hesitate to assume the worst about Yin Xiao, rehearsing everything from his going along with the flow to his lustful thoughts, and even prepared countermeasures.
If it's the former, then she'll "wake up" before any intimate actions occur and push the person away.
If it's the latter, then he'll have to experience what it's like to practice Sanda for twenty years.
Unexpectedly, he not only rejected her advances, but also advised her to remain calm and restrained.
how?
Suddenly he's become a moral exemplar?
