Chapter 71

Su Yan didn’t expect Xu Mohuai to ask such a question.

"I lent it to someone else just now. Just ask her to return it next time."

"Who did you lend it to, man?" He frowned in displeasure, not knowing what he was thinking.

Su Yan explained: "She was a camp prostitute. She was disheveled and shivering from the cold, so I covered her with my cloak." After

hearing this, Xu Mohuai immediately said: "Who asked you to go to a place like that? You are not afraid of dirt. I have lost my identity."

Su Yan was stunned for a moment after being scolded, and then she remembered and asked: "What is my identity?"

He suddenly became silent, his thin lips tightened into a cold arc, as if the next moment his mouth Some mean and hurtful words will come out. However, until Su Yan became a little uneasy, he didn't say anything. He just pulled her into the tent and held her cold hand tightly.

It was very warm in the tent. There was a pot of wine and a small plate of mutton sprinkled with salt and pepper beside the copper charcoal basin, with mashed dogwood beside it.

Xu Mohuai sat in front of the desk and didn't know what he was writing. Su Yan sat by the charcoal basin and took a sip of hot wine. It seemed like a fire was burning in her belly, burning all the way to her internal organs, and finally the heat spread to her whole body. She drank in small sips, and unknowingly her cheeks slowly began to feel hot.

By the time Xu Mohuai reacted, Su Yan had already drank most of the bottle of wine. Her face was stained with a red cloud, and she didn't know whether it was due to the heat or because she was really drunk.

"Don't sleep here." Xu Mohuai patted her and wanted her to sleep on the couch.

Su Yan's eyes were bright and she didn't show any intention of getting drunk. Xu Mohuai was worried that she would stumble and fall into the brazier. He wanted to reach out and pick her up, but she slapped her away hard.

"Emperor Dog, don't touch me!"

Xu Mohuai's hand froze and he paused in mid-air for a long time. He slowly sneered and spat out these words almost through gritted teeth.

"What did you just say?"

Su Yan covered her hot face, ignored him at all, and got into the quilt, her movements clumsy like a gopher digging into the soil.

Xu Mohuai stood frozen on the spot, his anger nowhere to be vented, and he almost wanted to drag her off the couch and teach her a lesson. He calmed down for a while, sat in front of the desk and read, trying to suppress his anger. However, listening to the breathing and drunken murmurs of the person behind him, he threw the book angrily, got up and walked towards the bed, hoping to wake Su Yan up and admit his mistake to him.

Then when he walked to the couch, he found that Su Yan had not taken off her clothes, only half of her face was exposed under the quilt, and her black hair was spread out like silk. He made a move, paced back and forth in front of the bed, stared at her with a sullen face for a long time, then leaned over to take off her shoes and boots, and returned to the desk to continue reading.

——When

Su Yan woke up the next day, she obviously had no memory of what happened last night, and she didn't feel any difference when faced with Xu Mohuai's cold face early in the morning.

She sat at the desk and drank meat soup, putting Xu Mohuai's book under the bowl. He glanced at it, threw her a piece of paper full of words, and said: "Copy these words, there is an error. Don't even think about sleeping tonight."
