As she spoke, Qin Ruojing absentmindedly reached out and pinched the air a few times, then giggled, "Oh, it was a wine glass, come on, let's drink. It's been a long time since I had such a good time drinking, come on..."

Chu Ge's eye twitched. Although this wasn't the first time he'd seen Qin Ruojing drunk, it was the first time he saw her drunk like this, even in the bathroom talking about drinking. If he told her about this once she sobered up, she probably wouldn't even believe it, right?

If Chu Ge wasn't so urgently in need of the bathroom himself, he'd probably find Qin Ruojing's drunken words quite amusing. But right now, he couldn't think of anything else except wanting to use the bathroom.

He even felt a bit resentful towards Qin Ruojing. Here he was, in a hurry, and she came along to add to the chaos?

A drop of sweat trickled down Chu Ge's forehead, and he couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, increasingly feeling helpless. He was about to relieve himself, but was scared away by Qin Ruojing.

Moreover, Qin Ruojing and her sister sometimes even have similar personalities, and are quite adorable when drunk.

He truly never imagined, in his lifetime, he would go through the agony of holding his bladder twice. The last time in the hospital, his hands were bandaged with vaseline, so there was no other choice. This time his hands were fine, yet it happened again.

At this moment, Qin Ruojing shook her head, looked at Chu Ge with her drunken eyes, "Oh, this is the bathroom, so it's the bathroom, right, I need the bathroom, I... I can't hold it, if I move any more, it's going to... going to come out, help... help me get there."

Chu Ge was also at his limit, but at that moment he could only grit his teeth and bear it. He moved Qin Ruojing forward, helping her onto the toilet.

Qin Ruojing was clearly at her limit, and wasn't Chu Ge just the same? But what could he do? Sigh, he really wondered if he owed Qin Ruojing something in a past life.

After getting Qin Ruojing settled, Chu Ge turned around, and immediately a loud noise, which sounded particularly loud to him at that moment, echoed in the bathroom.

The sound of the water was really satisfying, like a rushing torrent, simply flowing down like a waterfall, crashing against the rocks,

In a different situation, it would just be the sound of water, nothing significant at all, but at this very moment, hearing it in Chu Ge's ears was almost driving him mad. Qin Ruojing felt relieved, while he was about to explode.

All he could think about was using the bathroom, he really needed the bathroom!

But the sound wasn't just loud, it was also quite drawn-out. Over ten seconds had passed, yet it still showed no sign of stopping. These ten plus seconds were pure agony for Chu Ge. Every second he worried if the next moment would bring disaster.

Finally, the sound showed signs of stopping. Chu Ge braced himself and waited for a few more seconds, filled with anxiety, until the sound completely stopped.

"Are... are you done?" Chu Ge asked, lips trembling, those few simple words.

"I... my legs... legs are numb, I can't get up." Behind him came Qin Ruojing's embarrassed and apologetic voice.

Another drop of sweat slid down Chu Ge's forehead. He was indeed sweating, literally dripping sweat.

Crossing his legs tightly, Chu Ge turned around bit by bit. At this moment, he really couldn't care about anything else.

Forcing himself to endure the strong urge, Chu Ge inhaled sharply through gritted teeth, stretched out his left hand, and yanked Qin Ruojing up from the toilet.

He quickly moved Qin Ruojing to the wall, advising her to "stand steady", and then turned around to relieve himself.

Whoosh...

Chu Ge was at his limit, and the sound continued for quite a while after he was done, until he finally let out a long sigh of relief, relaxing from head to toe. This long-awaited release was indescribably refreshing.

Looking at the toilet's contents, Chu Ge couldn't help but murmur to himself, "I think I'm a bit heaty. But considering everything, it's perfectly normal to feel heaty, isn't it?"

Splash

Chu Ge pressed the flush button and turned to look at Qin Ruojing, only to find that she had fallen asleep, holding onto the wall.

Shaking his head, Chu Ge found the situation truly exasperating, but in this way, they could avoid the awkwardness.

Helping Qin Ruojing out of the bathroom, Chu Ge glanced towards the sofa. His suspicions were slightly alleviated again, and the one beside him now should really be Qin Ruojing.

Before he went into the bathroom, Qin Ruojing was on his left, Qin Ruoying on his right. Now, Qin Ruoying was still sitting on the right, albeit in a slightly different position from before, but a slight move after falling asleep was very normal.

However, even with that, he still didn't entirely let his guard down. Through his experiences of outsmarting and outmaneuvering with Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying, facts had repeatedly shown that Qin Ruoying's tactics often left him with headaches, she was so clever that he couldn't guard against her at all.

Placing Qin Ruojing back on the sofa, Qin Ruojing blinked groggily, patting her forehead and looking at the sofa, said, "Chu Ge, do me a favor, and help this girl back to her room."

Chu Ge nodded, gave an "mm" in response, and moved next to Qin Ruoying. Before he could even reach out his hand, Qin Ruojing squinted her eyes and said, "Hey, don't take advantage of my sister."

Chu Ge broke into a sweat. Qin Ruojing was so drunk yet still concerned about something like this. It truly suited her personality.

But wasn't she worrying too much? They've been together for so long; doesn't she know what kind of person he is by now?

Well... even if he doesn't consider himself a good person, at least he has some principles.

Thinking this, Chu Ge's doubts dissipated mostly. He muttered "Don't worry," then helped Qin Ruoying up.

He supported Qin Ruoying back to her bedroom, laid her down on the bed, took off her slippers, and looking at her in her drunken stupor, he thought, thank goodness you'll be leaving tomorrow, finally leaving!

Because he had been busy with work lately, Chu Ge hadn't had time to relax, which was quite stressful. After this, he'd have all the time to relax.

"Hmm... Qin Ruojing's shirt got wet with alcohol earlier, so there might still be some on it. Maybe... I should check again? Just to avoid being tricked by my sister-in-law again, see if she's Qin Ruojing or Qin Ruoying?"

Just as Chu Ge was thinking, he heard footsteps and Qin Ruojing's call from outside.

"Chu Ge, are you done? Still not coming out?"

"Just finished tucking your sister in. Coming out now."

Hearing this voice, Chu Ge pulled back his half-extended hand, exhaled, responded, and covered Qin Ruoying with a blanket. He turned off the light, exited the bedroom, and happened to meet Qin Ruojing who was walking to the door.

"I feel so dizzy. Thank goodness this girl couldn't drink anymore. If she drank more, I really couldn't take it."

After Chu Ge closed the door, Qin Ruojing leaned against the wall and whispered in relief.

Chu Ge gave a sympathetic smile, stretched, and supported Qin Ruojing into the bathroom.

"Chu Ge, I've really drunk too much. My hands aren't working well, can you help me wash my face and brush my teeth?"

Qin Ruojing added warm water to the cup, but when squeezing toothpaste, it landed on the floor. Dizzy, she shook her head, holding the toothbrush, and said to Chu Ge.

Chu Ge was brushing his teeth at that time, and hearing this, he mumbled with a smile, "You've brushed my teeth before, so it's normal if I help you once. No need to be so polite!"

Qin Ruojing was taken aback, blinking, but since Chu Ge had his back to her, he didn't notice her unusual expression.

If he had seen this scene, he would've been on guard, guessed something, and prepared. Unfortunately, none of that happened because he didn't see it, so he wasn't wary, guessing, or prepared.

When he finished brushing and turned back to pick up Qin Ruojing's dental kit, she had already concealed the strangeness in her expression, took a sip of warm water to gargle, and spat it into the sink.

Chu Ge then gazed at the toilet, thinking speechlessly about Qin Ruojing competing with him for the bathroom, but to avoid her throwing a fit and inexplicably finding fault with him, he wisely said nothing, dipped the toothbrush in warm water, applied toothpaste, and with one hand supporting Qin Ruojing, the other holding the toothbrush, he moved closer to her lips.

"Come on, open your mouth."

Qin Ruojing opened her mouth, revealing a row of white teeth. Chu Ge couldn't help but recall the time she helped him brush his teeth.

"Chu Ge, what are you doing? Aren't you going to put it in? How long am I supposed to keep my mouth open, waiting for you?"

Chu Ge was momentarily lost in thought, and Qin Ruojing rolled her eyes at him, playfully complaining.

Snapping back to reality, Chu Ge broke into a sweat—what was wrong with him today? Could it be that since Qin Ruoying was leaving tomorrow, he wouldn't need to stay here anymore, so he was inexplicably feeling some reluctance?

No, no—there's nothing to be reluctant about. He should be happy. As for everything else, there's really nothing there. If there must be some other factor, it could only be that he'd been here for so long, he got somewhat used to it.

It's just that simple, yes, nothing more.

Thinking this, Chu Ge grinned, apologetically saying, "I've never helped someone brush their teeth, was just preparing myself. Here we go now."

Having said that, Chu Ge moved the toothbrush toward Qin Ruojing's mouth.
