Although the butler couldn't say much, Chen Shuo could deeply feel the concern in his heart.

She thought that this kind of emotional entanglement would ultimately need to be faced and resolved by the two of them themselves.

After having a simple bowl of white porridge, Chen Shuo decided to change his environment and went into the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.

It was still early, but the turmoil in her heart made it difficult for her to calm down, so she decided to find something to do.

After dressing up carefully, she changed into a white knee-length dress, as if she had changed her mood. However, the time she had agreed with Sang Yue had quietly passed halfway.

The purple Lamborghini drove out of the garage gracefully. Chen Shuo sat in the driver's seat. His fingers hesitated for a long time on the mobile phone screen, and finally he sent a text message to Li Chuyue.

Arriving at the restaurant, she handed the car keys to the waiter and walked in with firm steps.

"Chen Shuo, this way." Sang Yue's voice came with a hint of warmth.

"Sorry, I'm late." Chen Shuo said apologetically.

"It's not late, I just came a little early." Sang Yue responded with a smile, then called the waiter to take an order, and carefully poured a glass of warm water for Chen Shuo.

"You just said that you needed my help with something. What is it?" Sang Yue asked directly, obviously taking Chen Shu's request very seriously.

Chen Shuo held the cup of warm water, feeling mixed emotions, and was hesitating on how to start. However, Sang Yue's eagerness made her feel a little warm.

She smiled softly and decided to just enjoy the meal.

"Let's talk about it after dinner. Do you mind if I have a drink?" Chen Shu suggested.

"Of course I don't mind, but I didn't expect you to have such a hobby." Sang Yue said jokingly, with a strange light flashing in his eyes, and looked at Chen Shu deeply.

Chen Shuo felt Sang Yue's gaze and his heart trembled.

She raised her hand to call the waiter and ordered two bottles of red wine.

She knew that alcohol might give her some courage to face the words that were about to come out.

And Sang Yue, who was sitting opposite her, seemed to be able to see through her heart with his deep blue eyes.

Chen Shuo drank two glasses of red wine in succession, and this scene finally made Sang Yue unable to sit still. He gently took the bottle of wine from her hand and put it on his side.

"Don't be so anxious to drink, we are here to discuss serious matters."

Sang Yue reminded gently.

Although two glasses of red wine were not much for Chen Shu, her eyes had begun to become a little blurry. She looked up at the red wine that was "confiscated" by Sang Yue, stood up suddenly, and looked at Sang Yue with a blurry look and a bit of stubbornness.

She stretched out her slender arm to take back the bottle, but Sang Yue gently patted the back of her hand.

"I invited you here to discuss the script, not to have a drinking contest." Sang Yue said seriously, picking up the script from the side. His deep blue eyes looked intently at Chen Shu, as if waiting for her response.

Normally, Chen Shu would cherish the opportunity to communicate with Sang Yue, but at this moment, she was in a heavy mood and could not concentrate at all.

She frowned slightly, her lips decorated with bright red lipstick looked even more attractive, and she stared at the script on the table with empty eyes. After a moment, she slowly stood up and walked towards Sang Yue. Her fingers seemed to touch the script, but suddenly she changed direction and reached for the bottle of red wine again.

When the cold bottle mouth touched his palm, Chen Shuo raised a wry smile and a faint blush appeared on his cheeks.

Just as she was about to drink it all again, Sang Yue quickly took action and grasped the bottle firmly in his hand.

Chen Shuo was not willing to be outdone. He held the wine bottle tightly with both hands, looking at Sang Yue with determination in his eyes.

"What exactly happened?" Sang Yue finally couldn't help but ask, with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

From her unusual behavior at the beginning of the statement, Sang Yue felt that she was worried, but she didn't want to say it, so he could only observe silently.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you when I need your help." Chen Shuo said softly, with a hint of imperceptible fatigue in his tone.

The bottle of wine returned to Chen Shu's hands again, and she simply held the bottle and drank it. The bright red wine slowly slid down her fair neck and dyed her white dress red.

This scene made Sang Yue frown. He stood up, strode to Chen Shu, and decisively snatched the bottle of wine from her hand.

"Enough, how can you talk about things like this?" Sang Yue's tone was filled with unquestionable determination.

"Oh, you're right." Chen Shu responded vaguely.

She slowly raised her eyes and looked at Sang Yue standing in front of her. She burped unconsciously and then covered her mouth in a panic, looking a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Sang Yue couldn't help but recall the last time when he sent her home, when she covered her mouth after burping, and he laughed to himself.

The alcohol began to take effect on Chen Shu's body. She held onto the table and staggered back to her seat with a dazed look in her eyes.

"I'm asking you to help me, which may make things difficult for you, but...will you still help me?"

She stretched out a hand and gently supported it on the table, with half of her face buried in her palm. Her half-open eyes flashed with trust in Sang Yue and a hint of uneasiness.

She knew in her heart that such a request might be too selfish. After all, Sang Yue had no close relationship with her, but he was going to be dragged into her troubles.

"What's the matter? I will definitely help you if I can." Sang Yue's answer was firm and warm.

Hearing this, Chen Shuo forced a bitter smile, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. "I want you to take me back to your home."

Although her voice was small, it was clearly heard by Sang Yue.

"You...are you drunk?" Sang Yue was stunned, his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

He subconsciously reached out and touched Chen Shu's forehead to confirm that she did not have a fever. Then hesitantly bent down, moved closer to her, and sniffed gently. The strong smell of alcohol hit him in the face.

Just as he was about to stand up, his collar was suddenly gently pulled by a white little hand. The distance between them was instantly shortened, and their noses almost touched.

Under the influence of alcohol, Chen Shu seemed to become much braver. She held Sang Yue's collar tightly without any hesitation.

"I'm really not drunk, I just need you to take me home... I might not be able to walk in a while, you have to carry me out."

There was a hint of coquettishness and helplessness in her words. After she finished speaking, the hand that was grabbing her collar slowly loosened, and the arm that was supporting her chin gradually lost its strength. Her head involuntarily tilted towards Sang Yue.

Sang Yue instinctively stretched out his arm and steadily caught Chen Shu who was about to fall, and gently stroked her slightly thin shoulders. "Chen Shu, are you okay?" he asked with concern.

"...I'm still... awake, but I feel dizzy." The voice was weak but clear, making Sang Yue finally sure that he had not heard it wrong.
