Gu Yan came along, carrying the wine and bowls himself while Su Yunjin, with her hands empty, followed behind him as they walked out. She thought of the scene where Gu Yan had just kissed her, and was still somewhat dazed.
Had she just been kissed by Gu Yan like that?
And it happened before she could even react?
"Yunjinniang, you're finally out!" Mrs. Shen said with a smile as she looked at her daughter, then asked Gu Yan, "Son-in-law, what were Yunjinniang doing in the kitchen that took so long for you to come out?"
Su Yunjin felt a twinge of guilt, worried that her mother might have seen what she and Gu Yan had been doing in the kitchen. She hurriedly said, "Mother, it's nothing! I was just tasting the rice wine in the kitchen."
"So, Yunjinniang, you've had some wine?" Mrs. Shen's brow furrowed instantly, "Yunjinniang, how could you drink wine? That is something for men, what business does a woman have drinking wine?"
