Wife, I’ve Been Reborn (GL) - Chapter 48

Chapter 48

Mu Nan hoped that the bottle would land on Xu Liangchen again, so she could ask more questions. Even if she didn’t answer, she could get her drunk, as drunk people often tell the truth.

However, her wish did not come true.

The bottle kept landing on other people, and she herself was chosen three times!

When it landed on her again, she was baffled. Did this game have a grudge against her?

“Hurry, hurry! Truth or dare!”

Song Yu didn’t act the same way with Mu Nan as he did with Xu Liangchen. He had a sly smile on his face.

Mu Nan gritted her teeth. She couldn’t handle three truths in a row.

“Dare, I guess.”

Song Yu’s smile became even more exaggerated. “Good!”

“Go and get a phone number from the boy at the first table! You’re not allowed to drink the beer!”

Mu Nan turned her head and looked at the boy at the first table. It was too far to see clearly, but she could see a boy and a girl sitting next to each other, looking very sweet and intimate.

“That’s not a good idea… His girlfriend is right there.”

Xiaoxin was the first to object. Song Yu picked up a bottle of beer and waved his hand. “A bet is a bet!”

Mu Nan gritted her teeth and looked at Song Yu, glaring at him angrily. Just as she was about to stand up, Xu Liangchen suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her back down to her seat.

“I’ll drink it for her.”

Her voice was clear and her expression was calm. Her phoenix eyes looked steadily at Song Yu, a faint smile on her face.

“Hey…”

Song Yu wanted to say something, but when he met Xu Liangchen’s cool gaze, the words on his tongue changed. “Alright, I’ll give the top student some face!”

Xu Liangchen picked up a bottle of beer in front of her and chugged it.

This was the second bottle she had drunk.

Mu Nan grabbed Xu Liangchen’s clothes. “Don’t drink anymore. You’re still not well.”

Xu Liangchen suddenly grabbed the hand that was holding her clothes. Her palm was cool and her fingers were slender. She wrapped her hand around Mu Nan’s. Mu Nan suddenly stopped moving and just sat there in a daze.

She placed the empty bottle on the table. “I’m fine.”

Mu Nan lowered her head, biting her lip, her face flushed.

The meal lasted for two or three hours before it ended. The last ones to leave were Mu Nan, Xu Liangchen, and Chen Jiao.

Chen Jiao was picked up by her dad as soon as she walked out. She waved at Mu Nan.

Mu Nan waved back.

It took her a while to look away.

Xu Liangchen was standing next to her. Although her expression was normal, there was a hint of drunkenness in her phoenix eyes.

She was actually not good at drinking.

Not only was she not good at it, but her body’s constitution was such that she would get drunk after a few drinks.

Xu Liangchen saw Chen Jiao get picked up. She lowered her head and said to Mu Nan, “Let’s go.”

“Mhm.”

Mu Nan obediently walked beside her. She looked at her hand hanging by her side, wanting to hold it. Xu Liangchen, who was in front, suddenly stopped.

Mu Nan quickly stood in front of her. “What’s wrong?”

Xu Liangchen shook her head. “I have a headache.”

Mu Nan looked at the haziness in Xu Liangchen’s eyes, which were slightly red from the alcohol. She knew that she was drunk.

“You can’t drink?”

“Mhm, not very well.”

Mu Nan looked at her. She was already drunk from just two bottles of beer. Not only was she not good at it, but she was terrible at it.

She half-supported Xu Liangchen to the bus stop and helped her onto the bus by wrapping her arms around her waist.

As soon as they got on the bus, Xu Liangchen leaned on her shoulder and fell asleep.

There weren’t many people on the bus. They sat in the back row. Xu Liangchen rested her head on Mu Nan’s shoulder. Mu Nan tilted her head to look at her.

Her body swayed with the movement of the bus. Mu Nan bit her lip, reached out, and wrapped her arms around her waist, her face flushed.

Xu Liangchen kept her head down. When she was drunk, she seemed to sleep very quietly and didn’t act crazy at all.

That was good.

Mu Nan’s gaze was fixed on her.

They were on the bus for more than half an hour before they got to the front door of her house. Mu Nan softly called Xu Liangchen’s name and half-dragged, half-pulled her off the bus.

Mu Nan opened the door and entered the room. Mu Yang came out when he heard the noise and looked at Xu Liangchen next to her. “What’s wrong?”

Mu Nan shook her head. “It’s nothing. She drank a little too much during dinner and is now sleeping.”

Mu Yang sat on the sofa. “Do you want me to make her some sobering soup?”

Mu Nan’s arm, which was holding Xu Liangchen, stiffened. “No need. A good sleep will do.”

And…

She still had a question she wanted to ask her.

Mu Nan took Xu Liangchen to the room. After a quick wash, she called Ye Jin. After the last time, she had secretly asked for Ye Jin’s phone number, wanting to know about Xu Liangchen.

She never expected it to be useful now.

Ye Jin was waiting for Xu Liangchen to come home for dinner. When she heard that she had drunk too much at their dinner party and was now sleeping at Mu Nan’s house, she was a little relieved. She just asked Mu Nan to take care of her.

Mu Nan agreed over the phone and chatted with Ye Jin for a few more minutes before hanging up.

When she entered the room again, Xu Liangchen was sleeping soundly on her bed. She pulled the curtains shut, locked the door, and then sat on the edge of the bed.

Xu Liangchen must have been a little hot. Her face was no longer pale but flushed pink. Her breathing was very steady.

Mu Nan carefully took off her jacket. Xu Liangchen suddenly sat up, just as Mu Nan’s hands were on her shoulders, trying to take off her clothes.

“What are you doing?”

Xu Liangchen’s voice was a little hoarse. Her eyes were staring at the person in front of her, looking a little dazed and cute.

“Mu Nan?”

Mu Nan’s face showed a momentary embarrassment. She averted her gaze. “I… I saw that you were asleep and wanted to help you take off your clothes. Don’t misunderstand.”

Xu Liangchen suddenly hugged Mu Nan’s body, rubbing her head against her shoulder. “Misunderstand what?”

Mu Nan’s limbs stiffened from the hug. She didn’t know where to put her hands. Then she heard Xu Liangchen call out softly, “Mu Nan.”

“Mhm?”

“Hug me.”

Mu Nan obediently put her hands under her jacket and wrapped them around her slender waist. Her nose was filled with the scent of Xu Liangchen’s hair.

It was very tempting.

The two of them sat on the bed, hugging each other. Mu Nan said into Xu Liangchen’s ear, “Why didn’t you answer today?”

Xu Liangchen let go of Mu Nan, her phoenix eyes dazed. “What?”

Mu Nan looked up at her eyes. “I said, why didn’t you answer my question today?”

“Is the person you like here?”

The drunkenness in Xu Liangchen’s eyes was still very strong. She didn’t say anything, remaining silent, as if the question Mu Nan asked was too profound for her to answer.

Mu Nan’s eyes showed some impatience. “If you don’t tell me, then I’ll find the answer myself.”

After saying that, she cupped Xu Liangchen’s face and kissed her. Her hands were very forceful and a little shaky. She closed her eyes tightly, not daring to look at Xu Liangchen’s expression at that moment.

When her lips touched Xu Liangchen’s, Xu Liangchen instinctively recoiled. Then Mu Nan suddenly pounced on her, still with her eyes closed, and kissed Xu Liangchen forcefully.

“Mu…”

Just as Xu Liangchen was about to call her name, Mu Nan bit down on her slightly parted lips. Her inexperienced kiss stirred something in Xu Liangchen’s heart, and then she sighed. “Mu Nan, let me go.”

Mu Nan’s voice was tearful. “No! I won’t!”

“You obviously like me!”

“I can feel it!”

The tears on her face dripped onto the back of Xu Liangchen’s hand. Xu Liangchen’s fingers quickly curled up. Then she grabbed Mu Nan’s shoulders with both hands, trying to create some distance between them.

But Mu Nan was like a little wild ox, charging straight into her arms, and even pulled off her jacket.

Xu Liangchen felt a discomfort in a certain part of her body when she exerted a little force.

She gasped, her face pale.

Mu Nan opened her eyes and saw her expression. She asked nervously, “What’s wrong?”

Then her gaze fell on the injured area. “Does it hurt here?”

In reality, she still didn’t know that Xu Liangchen had been stabbed. She thought the wound was from when she fell into the lake.

Xu Liangchen nodded. “Mhm.”

Mu Nan’s small hand touched the shirt, her eyes pleading. “Can I see it?”

Xu Liangchen wanted to object, but when she saw those eyes, she couldn’t say anything.

When Mu Nan saw that she wasn’t objecting, she pulled open the shirt. There was a circle of gauze around the fair skin. She slowly pulled off the gauze and saw a very ugly stitch.

The stitches had already been removed, and a crooked scar was left there.

“This…”

This was clearly not from an impact. Any fool could see that.

Xu Liangchen half-leaned on the head of the bed, watching as the tears in Mu Nan’s eyes never stopped. She roughly wiped away her tears. “Why are you crying? It doesn’t hurt now.”

Mu Nan looked up with teary eyes. “I’m the one who hurts…”

Her voice was very soft, but it was like a heavy drumbeat in Xu Liangchen’s heart. Her heart suddenly sped up. Xu Liangchen wanted to cover that ugly place.

But Mu Nan’s fingers touched it.

The shocking scar turned red under her touch. Mu Nan lowered her head and suddenly kissed that spot. Xu Liangchen cried out in surprise. “What are you doing!”

Mu Nan looked up at Xu Liangchen, her eyes filled with a do-or-die determination. “What I’ve always wanted to do.”

Xu Liangchen’s upper body was only wearing a white shirt. She had taken off her cotton jacket to make it easier to look at the wound. At this moment, she was leaning against the head of the bed, her clothes disheveled. Mu Nan suddenly felt a little parched.

She carefully put the bandage back on the scar. Then her fingers moved up the shirt. She wrapped her arms around Xu Liangchen’s head and kissed her softly.

Xu Liangchen struggled slightly. Mu Nan held her arms above her head.

This time, it was no longer reckless. It was as if she was afraid of hurting Xu Liangchen. She was so careful that she didn’t know what to do.

But she couldn’t let go.

She just kept gently sucking on Xu Liangchen’s lips, the meaning in her eyes obvious. Xu Liangchen’s eyes were open, her hands were trapped above her head by Mu Nan, and her mind was in a haze.

She didn’t know if it was better to use the alcohol as an excuse to kiss Mu Nan fiercely.

Or to push her away fiercely.

Mu Nan’s kiss became passionate. Seeing that she wasn’t resisting much, her lips moved down, lingering on Xu Liangchen’s collarbone. Xu Liangchen’s slightly clear eyes instantly became hazy again.

“Mu Nan… stop.”

Xu Liangchen’s voice was fragmented, but it only made Mu Nan bite her neck harder. Her head was buried at her throat, and her nose was filled with the sweet scent of Mu Nan’s hair. She felt like she was getting even more drunk.
