Chapter 947: Chapter 948: Sowhat Familiar Chapter 947: Chapter 948: Sowhat Familiar How am I not drunk yet…
ng Zhuqing found it rather amusing. Drunkards never admit to being drunk, and the one before her was no exception.
“Being drunk allows to see father… to see big brother, second brother… to see my male and female cousins…”
The mont Tobanya’s drunken words spilled out, ng Zhuqing imdiately felt a pang of heartache. He pitied her.
“They are all together… I’m all alone… just One Person all alone…”
“Commandery Princess…” ng Zhuqing felt so heartbroken, but had no idea how to console the person before him.
Upon hearing his voice, Tobanya, bleary-eyed, turned her head toward ng Zhuqing. She saw him even less clearly, straining to focus, but to no avail. However, that didn’t stop her from drunkenly asking, “Why haven’t you left yet?”
ng Zhuqing sighed, “Commandery Princess, please go inside. Not only is it cold, but it’s also getting late—”
Before he could finish, Tobanya lost her patience, angrily chastising him in a drunken slurred tone, “Everyone says you’re not him; you can’t control , get lost!”
ng Zhuqing felt another stir in his heart, but he still took Tobanya’s words as nothing more than drunken babble, completely unreliable.
Sighing once more, he took a couple of steps closer to her and said, “Commandery Princess, this General truly is ng Zhu—”
Before ng Zhuqing could finish his sentence, Tobanya suddenly lunged forward and even stretched her hand swiftly toward ng Zhuqing’s face. Before he could react, she had pulled off the mask on ng Zhuqing’s face.
Tobanya even proudly boasted, “This Commandery Princess has now removed your mask. Let’s see how you can continue to deceive this Commandery Princess into believing you’re him!”
ng Zhuqing’s body turned rigid, and he forgot to breathe.
She had audaciously removed his mask, not even giving him ti to prepare, an eventuality he had not anticipated.
He had thought that from the mont he donned the mask, henceforth, in every encounter with her, he would be wearing it. It didn’t just cover his face, but also his heart.
“Let this Commandery Princess have a good look at you… Ah…” Tobanya, still intoxicated, leaned in close to his face, her stunning beauty encroaching his space, her breath, heavy with alcohol, showering his face causing his heart to pound like a drum.
Tobanya, steadying her wobbly self against the table with one hand, scrutinized his face closely. The distance between her face and his was indeed very, very close.
He dared not breathe even more so.
And his heart was beating even more wildly.
Perhaps it was the effect of the alcohol-laden breath she exhaled; he felt himself getting a bit drunk, his mind hazy and unable to think of anything.
“Eh…” Tobanya stared at him for a long ti, finally expressing mild surprise, “You look sowhat familiar…”
How could I not look familiar? I am ng Zhuqing.
ng Zhuqing first reacted inwardly with annoyance, truly feeling that Tobanya had had too much to drink, but the words that ca out were gentle and patient, “Commandery Princess, how many tis do you want this General to tell you that I am ng Zhuqing?”
However, because of this, his stiffness from earlier subsided; he now felt calm. Since she was just a drunk at this point, even if his feelings were exposed, in her state, she would not notice.
But his heart still thumped vigorously.
It was clear that this person had an enormous impact on him.
“ng Zhuqing…” Tobanya murmured softly again, her eyes and expression full of disbelief, yet she continued to gaze at him, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed in deep concentration.
After a while, she raised her hand and touched his face.
