Chapter 233 Drunk
In order to make use of the resources as soon as possible, Ye Jingke also brought in Fang Yanmu and Lü Hanmo.
Qin Meilian looked around, crossed her arms, and said, "Please do your best to complete your tasks. If you have any questions, please communicate them in the group chat."
Ye Jingke knew this wasn't the time to cause trouble. He took Cheng Ai's small hand, his eyes burning with intensity, "Ai Ai, how about letting Liao Yunqing go with you to rescue people? Don't make things difficult for yourself, just follow your heart!"
Cheng Ai stared at him blankly, her cheeks flushed and her head spinning, then she gave a silly smile and said, "Don't worry, I can do it."
Qin Meilian smiled with satisfaction, "Mr. Ye, Miss Cheng has agreed, you won't have any further objections, will you?"
Ye Jingke gave Cheng Ai a deep look, but in the end said nothing and left with her reluctantly.
Nan Chuan and Zhong Zheyi also carried out Qin Meilian's plan.
In just a few moments, only two people and two origami cranes remained in the kitchen.
Cheng Ai rested her chin on one hand, while her other thumb rubbed the rim of the glass that had just been filled with baijiu. Her expression was slightly bewildered. "Ye Ye, I'm thirsty."
Liao Yunqing frowned slightly and handed over a bottle of mineral water.
Cheng Ai blinked, then gulped down half the bottle, tightened the cap, and set it aside.
She shook her head, stood up shakily, closed her eyes, quickly formed hand seals, and muttered incantations.
Liao Yunqing unconsciously leaned against the wall, swallowed hard, completely unaware of what had happened.
Accompanied by incantations, countless blue threads danced and swirled around Cheng Ai, then suddenly dispersed and disappeared into every corner of Grandpa Zhang's house.
Not long after, she opened her eyes, picked up the liquor and drank it all in one gulp. "Nothing's wrong."
Liao Yunqing looked completely bewildered. "What did you say?"
Cheng Ai glanced at him haughtily, grinned, and said, "Am I amazing?"
Liao Yunqing's lips twitched, but before she could speak, the other person staggered out of the kitchen.
He hurried after him and asked softly, "Where are you going?"
Cheng Ai rubbed her temples and replied softly, "Didn't Qin Meilian tell us to search the four grandfathers' houses for anything strange? I just searched Grandpa Zhang's house, and now I'm going to Grandpa Wang's house to continue the search!"
After saying that, she put her right hand outwards, and Liao Yunqing subconsciously raised her left arm. Thus, the posture of a servant supporting her master was achieved.
The six photographers peeked out of the tent, exchanged glances, and then tacitly withdrew.
Between eating melon seeds and saving your life, saving your life is the most important thing.
Leaving the courtyard, Cheng Ai made her way to Grandpa Wang's house at a leisurely pace.
Liao Yunqing was still regretting why he had been so bewitched into serving Cheng Ai when, by the time he came to his senses, he was already standing at the gate of Grandpa Wang's house.
He coughed lightly and weakly reminded them, "Our mission is to rescue the tourists, not to search the house of the four grandfathers."
Cheng Ai immediately stopped, but she lost her balance and stumbled, falling directly into his arms.
The aroma of wine mingled with a light fragrance wafted into her nostrils. Liao Yunqing helped her straighten up, slowly bending down to meet her gaze.
Cheng Ai's eyes were unfocused, and her face was obscured by the glowing origami cranes.
He pondered for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Do you remember who I am?"
Cheng Ai slowly raised her eyes, her gaze sweeping over his face for a moment, then suddenly reached out and hugged his neck, smiling sweetly, "Ye Ye, you're so naughty, I could forget anyone but you!"
Liao Yunqing's heart skipped a beat, and she pushed him away again, "You're drunk. Let's hurry up and save the person. After that, I'll take you home to sleep."
Cheng Ai looked around, puzzled. "Where is he?"
Liao Yunqing shook her head. "I don't know."
Cheng Ai put her hand to her lips, tilting her head adorably, "Then what should we do?"
Liao Yunqing's cheeks were burning, and her throat tightened slightly. "We need to find the tourists' location first before we can rescue them."
Cheng Ai's daytime attire consists of a denim jacket and jeans, along with a youthful and lively ponytail.
While waiting for dinner at the Lü family's house, she took a bath, changed into a dark blue chiffon dress, and had her long hair tied up high with a jade hairpin. Overall, she looked clean, neat, and ethereal.
At that moment, her small body swayed back and forth, like a small boat in a storm that might capsize at any moment. "How do we find it?"
Liao Yunqing's desire to help him up arose and then vanished. "You know mystical arts, finding a few people should be a piece of cake, right?"
The next second, his face was cupped in a pair of soft, boneless hands. "Ye Ye, you can talk, but why are you swaying back and forth like that?"
Liao Yunqing didn't flinch, staring intently at her. "If I begged you to save Aunt Hui, would you agree?"
"Aunt Hui?" Cheng Ai murmured, frantically searching her mind for useful information. "Liao Yunqing's mother?"
Although the words sounded like an insult, Liao Yunqing was powerless to refute them. "Yes!"
Cheng Ai let go of his hand, frowned and sighed softly, "I knew you still couldn't let go of the Liao family."
She leaned against the gate of Grandpa Wang's house, looked up at the sky, and said, "Zhang Xiaohui has picked fights with me time and time again. It would be a lie to say that I don't hold grudges, but considering that she once took care of you, I won't sit idly by."
Liao Yunqing's eyes widened in surprise, her face filled with disbelief. "Really?"
"Hmm~" Cheng Ai yawned, her eyes slightly narrowed. "But I have to collect the money, otherwise I'll become a punching bag!"
She pursed her lips, her voice growing softer, "Liao Yunyan has a secret. There seems to be something hidden in the ceiling of Zhang Xiaohui's bedroom. The cost absolutely cannot be less."
Upon hearing this, Liao Yunqing stepped forward and grasped her shoulders, his tone urgent, "Explain yourself clearly, what's wrong with Aunt Hui's room? Is it bad feng shui? Or is there some other problem?"
Just then, a cool breeze blew by, causing Cheng Ai's skirt to flutter, and her mind gradually cleared.
A flash of blue light appeared, and Liao Yunqing was thrown back by a force, crashing heavily to the ground.
He clutched his chest as he got up, his eyes filled with confusion.
Cheng Ai walked step by step to Liao Yunqing, her eyes icy cold. "You want to assault me?"
She looked around, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. "Weren't you here to save someone? Why did you bring me to Grandpa Zhang's house?"
Liao Yunqing's eyes twitched. Had he sobered up?
"I didn't mean to take advantage of you," he explained guiltily, then quickly changed the subject, "You were drunk and wandering around, I was afraid something would happen to you, so I followed you."
Cheng Ai patted her face. Ever since she pushed the wine glass to Ye Jingke, she had been feeling drowsy and sleepy. "Where's Ye Ye?"
“He and Qin Meilian went to interrogate the villagers,” Liao Yunqing replied obediently.
"Oh." Cheng Ai flicked her wrist, losing patience. "Then let's get started quickly."
After speaking, she lightly leaped onto the courtyard wall of Grandpa Wang's house and released blue threads.
In just a few moments, the hiding place of the five tourists was located.
Cheng Ai made a grabbing motion with her right hand, and a blue ribbon appeared out of thin air, wrapped around Liao Yunqing's waist, and pulled him against the wall.
