บท 243: Marriage Tree

They scooped out the fermented wine from the wine jar and clinked bowls together.

The wine that spilled out of the bowl landed on the table and was covered by the light of the oil lamp.

"Answer you what?"

"I asked you if you wanted to kiss me."

"I do." Jiang Ye leaned over and touched her lips.

He fed Pei Yilan two sips of water and patted her back gently. "Are you sleepy? Let's go upstairs and rest."

"I'm not sleepy," she muttered. In just a few breaths, she closed her eyes in his arms.
