Prince Huaxin's Nominal Wife: Concubine Leng Enchanting

Chapter 53 Just Acting
Seeing Ming Haoxuan raised the wine glass in his hand again, Ling Yaoyao couldn't help dissuading him and said, "My lord, you've already drank so much today..."

"Why? Worried about my drinking capacity?" Ming Haoxuan turned his head to look at Ling Yaoyao, and smiled tenderly: "Don't worry, your husband won't get drunk so easily."

His gentle smile spread out like a pool of spring water, and his eyes as deep as jade fell gently on Ling Yaoyao's face.His face was as handsome as a banished immortal, without a trace of hostility in the usual days, but with an indescribable charm and allurement.

Ling Yaoyao's heart skipped a beat uncontrollably, her cheeks blushed involuntarily, she whispered, "Since you love to be brave so much, then you can drink it, I don't care about you."

"Yaoyao, what you said is wrong, anyone can ignore me, you are my beloved wife, how can you ignore me?" Ming Haoxuan couldn't help saying that he took Ling Yaoyao's little hand, and gently put it on his face. After a moment, his eyes were full of doting and loving: "I just want you to take care of me."

This kind of intimacy regardless of the occasion made Ling Yaoyao's slightly flushed face turn red all of a sudden, she quickly withdrew her hand and said, "What are you doing? You can talk if you want to talk, don't gossip like this .”

"Hehe, we're married, why is Yaoyao still so shy? It's really helpless." Ming Haoxuan chuckled, it seemed that they were really a pair of newlyweds who were like glue.

Ling Yaoyao secretly sighed in her heart, this person is really a master of acting, if he didn't become an actor, he really buried his talent.

But inadvertently, she saw a gleam of sadness in Yun Ying's eyes opposite, although it was fleeting, Ling Yaoyao could see it clearly.She couldn't help being slightly startled, Yunying was so close to her elder brother, why did she look at Ming Haoxuan just now, it seemed that there was a bit of sadness, sentimentality, and sadness, which made people feel that she had a crush on Ming Haoxuan. Does Haoxuan still have feelings?
Ling Yaoyao noticed Yunying's sad eyes, and Ming Haoxuan certainly wouldn't ignore it, he sneered in his heart: Greedy and vain woman, you left me unfeelingly at the beginning and put yourself in someone else's arms, now you see me with you Do you feel uncomfortable when you are with other women?Hehe, I really should let you have a good taste of the feeling of being scratched.

"This glass of wine, I respect Young Madam Ling." Ming Haoxuan did not intend to let Yun Ying go, he stood up holding the wine glass, and looked directly into Yun Ying's eyes coldly: "Young Madam, my old friend respects you." You won’t be disrespectful of the wine, will you?”

The indifferent and sarcastic words were like an ice knife in the cold wind, blowing Yun Ying's face pale.She stood up in panic, and said in a broken voice: "I drink... Taoxiang, pour me wine..."

Tao Xiang came over and poured Yun Ying a glass of wine, and Yun Ying was about to pour it into her mouth.

At this time, Ling Ziluo, who had been sitting on the side watching them coldly, stood up, reached out and grabbed the wine glass in Yunying's hand, and said to Ming Haoxuan: "Yunying doesn't know how to drink, I will drink this glass of wine for her .”

"Hehe, Young Master Ling knows how much he loves Madam. However, I want to respect Madam Young with this glass of wine, and she says she has drunk it. Wouldn't it be boring for you to interrupt me again?" Ming Haoxuan sneered, every word, They all speak very slowly.

"Ziluo, give it to me, I'll drink it." Yunying said quickly, wanting to take the glass of wine.

And her face changed from white to red in just an instant, and then from red to paler.

"How can you drink with your body?" Ling Ziluo glared at Yunying angrily. Seeing her miserable face, she couldn't help but soften her tone: "Sit down, drinking is a man's business, I will drink with the prince." Just do it."

Yunying looked at Ming Haoxuan helplessly and begging for forgiveness, and sat down obediently.

"Prince Jing, I will accompany you to the end as much as you want to drink today. It's just that when men drink, we'd better not involve women." Ling Ziluo watched Ming Haoxuan quietly. Yun Ying drank that glass of wine.

"Okay, since General Ling has such a taste, why don't we drink it in a big bowl?" Ming Haoxuan sneered and finished the wine in the glass, saying: "Today we must have a good drink with General Ling .”

"Tao Xiang, go and get the bowl." Ling Ziluo stopped talking and ordered the servant girl in a deep voice.

"Prince Jing, Ziluo, little wine is good for you, but big wine is bad for you. There is a good saying, drink well or not, drinking is like a martial arts contest, just order it, too much is not good, you still Don't drink too much." Ling Wei frowned and spoke to stop him.

"Father, the prince is here as a guest, and he wants to drink, so of course I will do my best to accompany him." Ling Ziluo said immediately.

"General Ling, don't worry too much. Since we want to drink, we know it well." Ming Haoxuan also said the same.

"Hey, it's good that you know what's going on. I'm old, so I won't get involved in your young people's affairs anymore." Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Ling Wei sighed, and they had to go.

Seeing this scene, Madam Ling couldn't help showing worry, Yunying and Ling Yaoyao also felt that something was wrong, but seeing the resolute faces of the two men, they knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, so whoever He didn't speak either.

At this time, Tao Xiang had already brought up two large celadon bowls, placed them in front of Ming Haoxuan and Ling Ziluo, and filled them with wine.

The two picked up the bowl, drank the wine in the bowl almost at the same time, then filled it up, and drank again.

To and fro like this, Ling Yaoyao couldn't remember exactly how many bowls of wine Ming Haoxuan and her elder brother Ling Ziluo drank, she just felt that the two of them were full of pride, the more they drank, the more vigorous they became, and the more they drank, the more brave they became.And they hardly said a word that was superfluous, as if their whole purpose was to drink, to drink!
Seeing that both of them were drunk, they kept pouring wine.Ling Wei tried to dissuade him again, but the two still didn't listen, they just kept drinking.A jar of old wine was full, and only half of the jar was left in an instant.

Ling Wei was annoyed, and left the banquet under the pretext of taking a break, and Madam Ling followed her out, wanting to comfort her husband.

On the table, there were only four young men and women left.

Ming Haoxuan and Ling Ziluo's eyes were red from drinking, but they were still fighting wine regardless.The big bowl of wine was just like this, bowl after bowl, and the two of them didn't even blink their eyelids.

Ling Yaoyao sat on the sidelines and stared dumbfounded. She had never seen someone drink so much water before, and never knew that someone could drink so much alcohol. If these two people were in modern times, they would both have the strength to compete for the manager of the public relations department.

And Yunying watched the two men drinking vigorously as if they had been competing, her complexion became more and more pale and uncertain, and she hesitated to speak several times.

"Zi Luo, don't drink any more!" Finally, Yunying couldn't bear it anymore and said.

"Why don't you drink it?" Ling Ziluo turned to look at Yunying, his eyes were drunk and his tongue was a little knotted: "Yunying, do you know that wine is a good thing, I want to drink it, I must drink it today !"

"Indeed, wine is a good thing. When a man drinks, why would a woman get in the way?" Ming Haoxuan took a deep look at Yunying, and said provocatively, with a hoarse voice.

Yunying immediately lowered her head and stopped talking, a layer of unresolved sadness covered her beautiful face.

"If you drink any more, you won't be afraid to die of drunkenness!" Ling Yaoyao couldn't take it anymore, she snatched the wine bowl from Ming Haoxuan's hand, and said loudly: "Don't drink any more! Eat!"

"Hehe, why is my wife so fierce?" Ming Haoxuan was not annoyed, but laughed instead: "Madam won't let me drink, so of course I won't drink, Yaoyao, I'll listen to you."

"Tao Xiang, serve the prince and the major general, and remove the wine." Ling Yaoyao ignored Ming Haoxuan's teasing, but decisively ordered the servants to remove the wine and serve the meal, otherwise they would really drink endlessly.

Just like that, the torrential wine fight between the two men ended.Although they didn't drink any more, both of them were obviously quite drunk.

After dinner, General Ling and Mrs. Ling came back. Maybe they didn't go far at all, but they just didn't want to see their son and son-in-law fighting openly and secretly at the wine table.

Yunying greeted them, said goodbye to Ling Yaoyao, and helped the drunk Ling Ziluo back to the room.She was still afraid to speak directly to Ming Haoxuan.

Ming Haoxuan's state seems to be not much more sober than Ling Ziluo, but Ling Yaoyao noticed that when Yunying helped Ling Ziluo leave, the sharpness shot from his eyes was almost as cold as a sharp knife.

This made Ling Yaoyao feel that maybe Ming Haoxuan was not drunk at all, or maybe he was drunk.

"Yaoyao, take Prince Jing to your room to rest for a while, he also drank a lot." Madam Ling said to Ling Yaoyao.

It's really the mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the happier she is.At this moment, Madam Ling saw that Ming Haoxuan was full of drunkenness, and she had long forgotten the unspeakable grievances between him and the General's Mansion, and a motherly pity surged in her heart.

"Mother, is he alright? He drinks a lot, so he doesn't need to rest." Ling Yaoyao was a little embarrassed, she and Ming Haoxuan were just a fake couple, so of course she was reluctant to let him rest in her room.

"Hehe, who said that the king doesn't need to rest? Are you so ignorant of loving your husband?" Ming Haoxuan stood up, and looked at Ling Yaoyao with a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes: "I can't even stand still now, Yaoyao, I want to sleep with you for a while."

"My lord, you can sleep in the carriage." Ling Yaoyao choked up a bit, and said bravely.

Looking at Ming Haoxuan's wicked smile, she felt that he did it on purpose, and she couldn't help being a little annoyed.At this time, she was even more sure that Ming Haoxuan was not drunk, but just pretending to be crazy by drinking.

"Yaoyao, what are you talking about!" General Ling gave Ling Yaoyao a hard look, and shouted sharply, "Take Prince Jing to rest in your room!"

Ling Yaoyao was unconvinced and wanted to talk, but saw her mother winking at her with a face of reproach, knowing that it would be of no use to say more, so she reluctantly walked in front of Ming Haoxuan and said, "Come on!" Bar."

"You help me go." Ming Haoxuan blinked and smiled lightly, with an expression like a child who is cheating.

Ling Yaoyao had no choice but to go forward and support him with stiff arms.

But Ming Haoxuan smiled and said: "It's just teasing you, but it scares you like this? I have a lot of things to do, how can I really sleep here?"

After all, Ming Haoxuan politely bid farewell to General Ling and Madam Ling.

General Ling and Madam Ling sincerely persuaded them to stay after dinner, but Ming Haoxuan just said that there were still things to do and insisted on leaving.Although Ling Yaoyao was reluctant to part with Mrs. Ling, she had no choice but to go back to the palace with him.

Still the same as when he came, Lian Bao followed Ming Fei and sat in front of the carriage.In the car, there were only Ling Yaoyao and Ming Haoxuan.

At this time, all the pretense and falsehood were no longer needed, and the previous indifference between the two suddenly returned, and the atmosphere suddenly became so silent.

Ming Haoxuan closed his eyes and leaned wearily on the back of the chair behind him, feeling pain in his chest.

"My lord, go back and sleep for a while." Ling Yaoyao said softly, at this moment, she suddenly had an inexplicable feeling of almost sympathy for Ming Haoxuan.

It turned out that such a seemingly invincible person also had his own pain and helplessness.It turned out that he was not as proud as he appeared on the surface.

Women are always so soft-hearted, even though she once hated Ming Haoxuan to the core.At this moment, seeing him hurt by love, I actually feel a little distressed.

"No, I said I don't want to sleep." Ming Haoxuan replied indifferently.

He didn't open his eyes, his whole heart, his whole world, was still at the moment when he saw Yun Ying just now.

After three years, I finally saw her again.However, what can he do if he sees it?The girl he loves so heartbreakingly is already someone else's wife, and he insists on seeing her, so besides adding more sadness and heartbreak to himself, what has he left behind?
