Song Yunshu was able to tell the difference between them in just one sentence.

She was also an orphan whose parents had died.

Ruan Peiting had gained the favor of Old Master Huo and stayed in the old mansion to take care of her.

Meanwhile, she had a miserable life with her uncle.

At times, she wanted to complain, but at least she had lived well for so many years.

There seemed to be no point in complaining anymore.

Ruan Peiting helped Song Yunshu support Huo Cen and sent them back to the courtyard.

When they were about to enter the house and go upstairs, Ruan Peiting did not follow them. She just stood at the bottom of the stairs obediently.

“Ah Cen’s room is upstairs. It’s not convenient for me to go upstairs. Miss Song, Thank you.”

Ruan Peiting spoke softly.

Song Yunshu held Huo Cen as she turned around and nodded at her. “Thank you.”

Ruan Peiting nodded at her from afar and did not say anything else.

She watched their backs as they went upstairs. When their figures completely disappeared from her sight, the smile in her eyes gradually faded.

There was a layer of incomprehensible emotion between her eyebrows. Then, she turned around and walked in the direction of the front yard.

Huo Cen leaned against Song Yunshu as he walked, placing more than half of his weight on her.

At the same time, he heard the conversation between her and Ruan Peiting, but he didn’t say anything.

At first, he wasn’t too drunk. He could walk normally and think normally without any problems.

When he returned to his room and was thrown into the bed by Song Yunshu, he felt his mind go blank for a moment.

Tonight, red wine and white beer were almost mixed together.

Usually, when he went out for business dinners. The other party would be mindful of his status and wouldn’t dare to act too recklessly.

But tonight was different. They were all relatives of his family.

Besides, it was also a joyous day for him.

Therefore, it was not good to reject their toasts.

Naturally, he ended up drinking everything that was offered to him.

As a result, he ended up in a daze.

It took Song Yunshu a lot of effort to get him back into the room and throw him on the bed.

Then, she sat down at the end of the bed, panting heavily as she rubbed her sore arm.

The man looked thin and did not seem to weigh much, but who would have thought that he would be so heavy? He almost crushed her to death on the way upstairs.

Now, she finally managed to get him back to his room.

Song Yunshu immediately kicked away her high heels and rubbed her heels with a resentful expression.

She wasn’t good at wearing high heels, but in order to cooperate with Huo Cen, she not only wore high heels for the entire night, but she also faked a smile for the entire night.

At this moment, not only were her feet sore and tired, but even the muscles on her face were almost stiff.

Song Yunshu bent over and massaged her feet.

Little did she know that the man behind her had opened his eyes and removed his glasses.

His long, well-defined fingers pinched his tie and loosened it.

Then, he unbuttoned his shirt…

When Song Yunshu heard the movement behind her, she instinctively turned around.

Unexpectedly, Huo Cen had sat up.

He held the button with one hand.

His usually calm and handsome face revealed a rare trace of anxiety.

However, perhaps because he was drunk, the buttons on his collar were small and swayed back and forth in his hands.

It was like a small flea that could not be caught.

Song Yunshu looked at his furrowed brows as if he was deeply troubled.

For a moment, she couldn’t help but chuckle.

Unfortunately, the sound of her laughter fell perfectly into the man’s ears.

The half-drunk man suddenly looked up at her.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and a rare hint of impatience showed on his handsome face.

The corners of his eyes were tinged with drunken redness.

“What are you laughing at?”

His voice was as cold as ever, and he did not sound drunk at all.

As soon as Song Yunshu heard him, she immediately stopped laughing.

She put away her relaxed posture and looked at him cautiously.

She shook her head nervously and uncomfortably. “It’s nothing.”

Huo Cen’s slightly drunk gaze was still on her face as if he wanted to stare a hole in her face.

She instinctively shifted her butt away.

Unexpectedly, Huo Cen suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her forward. At the same time, his upper body leaned forward slightly.

For a moment, the distance between the two of them was especially close.

They were so close that they could almost feel each other’s breath, as if they were just within reach.

“You…”

“Shh, help me unbutton my shirt.”
