Chapter 43
Wei Shao shook his head calmly: "Not yet."

Zhao Zhizhi immediately ran towards the woodshed, shouting as he ran: "Young hero, wait, I'll get you something to eat."

Wei Shao looked at her lively figure, the corners of his lips raised involuntarily.

The rest of yesterday's food in the woodshed was eaten by the Zhao family's father and brother, leaving only a few sweet potatoes of different sizes for Zhao Zhizhi under the stove.

Zhao Zhizhi excitedly took them out, blew off the dust on them, and ran outside holding them.

"Young hero, there are only sweet potatoes in the woodshed. Do you want to eat them?" Perhaps because he recognized his own heart, Zhao Zhizhi gradually became cautious in front of Wei Shao.

Wei Shao took a sweet potato, carefully peeled off the skin, and handed it to Zhao Zhizhi again, "You didn't eat it either, right?"

Zhao Zhizhi looked up at him stupidly, "Huh?"

Wei Shao took the remaining sweet potatoes from her hand and urged her: "Eat first."

Zhao Zhizhi's heartbeat was as fierce as a drum. She stiffly took the peeled sweet potato, as if a sunflower was blooming in her heart, and she felt warm all over.

Although she has determined her own mind, she has always remained sober.

She needed to understand Wei Shao's background as soon as possible, even if it was only a little bit, she would not be blinded.

Otherwise, even if two people who don't know each other like each other, they won't be able to live together for a long time.

After the training that day, Zhao Zhizhi grabbed Wei Shao who was about to leave and said to him mysteriously: "Young hero, do you still remember the medicinal wine I drank with you last time?"

How could Wei Shao not remember that ambiguous night had been deeply engraved in his heart and could no longer be easily erased.

Seeing that Wei Shao remained silent, Zhao Zhizhi hurriedly continued: "I have improved the brewing recipe. Now the wine tastes better and is more fragrant. Do you want to try it?"

Seeing Zhao Zhizhi's expression of wanting to answer for him, Wei Shao raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Okay."

He always felt that Zhao Zhizhi's attitude towards him had changed too much when he came back this time, so he might as well test it out while drinking.

As everyone knows, Zhao Zhizhi had the same idea.

At night, Zhao Zhizhi went to ask his neighbor next door for advice and made a side dish to go with wine. Then he brought the wine jar and placed it in the center of the table.

As soon as Wei Shao took his seat, he saw Zhao Zhizhi filling up his wine bowl proudly, and then pretending to be angry and said: "Young hero, before we drink this meal, you have to punish yourself with three bowls."

Wei Shao paused while holding the wine bowl and asked with interest: "Why are you punished with three bowls?"

His words were like poking a hornet's nest. Zhao Zhizhi suddenly became furious, pointing at him fiercely and accusing him: "For the first bowl, I will punish you for not fulfilling half of the master's responsibilities."

Wei Shao nodded with enlightenment, "Okay, I recognize this bowl."

After speaking, he picked up the bowl and drank it down.

As soon as the wine bowl was put down, Zhao Zhizhi rushed to refill his glass.

Wei Shao held his forehead and laughed.

This was the first time he laughed so freely after many days of running around.

Zhao Zhizhi glared at him, "Don't laugh. If you talk about this second bowl of wine, I will punish you for leaving without saying goodbye, which will make me worry."

Wei Shao frowned, "I left a message for you, didn't you see it?"

Zhao Zhizhi was stunned, "What message?"

The look on her face didn't look like she was faking it, so she definitely didn't see it. No wonder she changed so much when she saw him again.

Could it be that he was afraid that he would give up halfway and leave her behind and never come back?

This can be considered as his subordinates did not do good things, so Zhao Zhizhi would be angry because of it.

Wei Shao silently drank the wine in the bowl again, "Miss Zhao, what is this third bowl for?" Zhao Zhizhi cleared his throat, "This third bowl is to punish you for living so many days. There was no message back, so I thought you had forgotten about the bet, so I couldn't sleep well."

Wei Shao defended straightforwardly: "Miss Zhao, what you said is the same as the second one. Since I accepted it and left without saying goodbye, how can I reply to you?"

Zhao Zhizhi was choked, and after thinking about it, he changed his words: "Then I'll punish you for delaying my training. Otherwise, I might be even thinner than I am today."

"Miss Zhao is really articulate. Wei will accept the punishment." Wei Shao raised his head and drank the third bowl.

This is a strong liquor with over 50 degrees of alcohol content. Because alcohol is very harmful to the body, the wine brewed by wine shops in this era is only [-] to [-] degrees alcohol at most.

However, although Zhao Zhizhi's self-brewed medicinal wine has a very high alcohol content, it is mixed with precious herbs, which does not affect the taste of the wine and can also keep the body healthy.

The last time he drank it was only over 30 degrees, so this time he must be able to get him drunk.

Zhao Zhizhi saw that Wei Shao was not drunk at all, just pretending that he was not drunk yet.

She poured half a bowl of wine for herself and then filled Wei Shao's wine bowl.

Under Wei Shao's doubtful eyes, he said confidently: "Young hero, I will toast you with this half bowl of wine."

Before Wei Shao could speak, she explained to herself: "Young hero, don't get me wrong, I have no other intentions. I just want to toast you as a daughter. If the wine is filled, wouldn't I be looking down on you?"

Zhao Zhizhi finished all the good and bad words alone.

If Wei Shao doesn't understand what her plan is, all these years of experience will be in vain.

He lowered his eyes and decided to take advantage of the situation.

"Young hero, do you dare to drink?" Zhao Zhizhi has blocked all Wei Shao's escape routes.

If he shirks it now, he will have no backbone.

Wei Shao picked up the wine bowl in a funny manner and bumped it with Zhao Zhizhi, "Come on, do it!"

Zhao Zhizhi also shouted: "Do it!"

The two drank at the same time.

Zhao Zhizhi put down the wine bowl, pursed her red lips, and racked her brains to think of other ways to toast.

Before she could think of it, Wei Shao lay down on the table and made a soft "dong" sound.

Zhao Zhizhi was startled and hurriedly got up and walked to him.

As a doctor, he suffered from an occupational disease and subconsciously wanted to diagnose his pulse.

Wei Shao was startled. He saw Zhao Zhizhi's movements from the corner of his eye and knew that she knew some medical skills. He quickly twisted his body to prevent her from touching his wrist, otherwise he would be exposed that he was pretending to be drunk if he took a pulse.

In order to divert Zhao Zhizhi's attention, Wei Shao could only pretend to be confused and say:

"Miss Zhao, keep drinking, don't stop."

Zhao Zhizhi stayed where he was, staring at Wei Shao with a scrutinizing gaze for a long time, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I finally got you drunk."

Wei Shao clenched his fists calmly.

He only hoped that Zhao Zhizhi would never let him down. If she was really a traitor who was pretending to be around him, he would definitely let people use the most severe punishment to treat her.

Until this time, Wei Shao did not trust Zhao Zhizhi wholeheartedly.

"Young hero, open your eyes and look at me. Do you still recognize who I am?" Zhao Zhizhi knelt down next to Wei Shao and pushed him gently.

Wei Shao groaned in pain, barely opened one eye, and said vaguely: "Who are you? I don't know you. You've found the wrong person."
