Chapter 921: Ian Who Is Drunk Again

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qin Ze, who was watching a good show, suddenly felt increasingly uncomfortable.

He suddenly felt that he was being tortured by the public displays of affection. Not to mention, it was coming from both sides!

More importantly, it was not torturing his physical body but instead, his heart!

“You guys can slowly chat about your love. As a single person, I think it’s time for me to retire.”

Having said that, he stood up and returned to his room.

!!

The two couples did not even bother to spare him a glance.

Ian poured another glass of wine for Zi Yi and Lu Jingye.

He raised the glass and said to them, “Both of you, thank you for making my life different. If not for you, I’d still be doing nothing and wasting my life away. I might even have remained in bars and clubs all my life.”

Even though he had the capability, he never thought about fighting against his eldest brother. Let alone doing such a huge project. More importantly, he thought that he was destined to grow old alone. However, he found his beloved because of them.

At the thought of this, Ian turned to look at Dou Xiangling. Gentleness was oozing out his eyes as he raised her hand and kissed the back of it. “Later on, I’ll give your Grandfather, Father, and Mother a call and request them to marry their precious granddaughter and daughter to me.”

The night here just so happens to be daytime in China.

“Tomorrow evening, I’ll hold a banquet for you and announce our relationship.”

Dou Xiangling did not expect Ian to be in such a hurry. She said while feeling a little embarrassed, “Aren’t things going a little too quickly?”

“No, they aren’t. The moment I had fallen in love with you, I already had the thought of marrying you.”

Dou Xiangling lightly bit her lips, but her eyes revealed unconcealable joy.

Zi Yi looked at the two and smiled. “That’s a good idea. It’s best if you guys can finish the wedding here, then go back to China and hold another one. In that case, my cousin won’t have to worry that she doesn’t have family members supporting her.”

After all, the Dou Family members were very busy during this period of time and they might not necessarily be able to find time to make a trip over. It just so happens that she and Lu Jingye were present and they can represent Dou Xiangling’s family members.

Dou Xiangling originally thought that Ian was anxious enough. She did not expect Zi Yi to be even more anxious than Ian. She said in a shy voice, “Bad Yiyi. You’re itching to marry me off right away, aren’t you?”

Zi Yi grinned and said, “I want to receive my red packet as soon as possible!”

Dou Xiangling purposely slapped Zi Yi’s arm while pretending to be angry. “Bad Yiyi!”

“Hehe.”

Ian was even more delighted as he finished all the wine in his glass. Subsequently, he poured another cup for the three of them and said, “I feel that Zi Yi’s suggestion sounds good. I’ll have a discussion with Grandfather, Father, and Mother shortly.”

“Heh? You’ve even started calling them your Grandfather, Father and Mother now!”

“I’ll be calling them that sooner or later anyways.”

Ian was genuinely happy. The three of them finished all the alcohol they brought out.

It seems like Ian doesn’t have any bad drunken habits. He’s only sitting there and smiling foolishly even though he’s drunk.

Zi Yi also had too much to drink and she was acting spoiled in Lu Jingye’s embrace. “Ah Jing, my head feels dizzy.”

Lu Jingye had also had quite a bit of drink but even if he was drunk, he would not let people notice he was drunk anyways. He said to Dou Xiangling, “I’ll bring Yiyi back to the room first.”

Subsequently, he asked, “Are you able to send Ian back to his room?”

Dou Xiangling opened her mouth. She wanted to say that there was no need for her to send him back. She could already imagine the scene where Ian grabbed his instrument and played the violin the entire night.

However, she did not expose his drunken behavior and merely nodded her head.

Lu Jingye was not worried about Ian too much. Even if Dou Xiangling was unable to send him back, there were still guards around. He carried Zi Yi and headed back to their room.

As soon as Zi Yi and Lu Jingye left, only Dou Xiangling and Ian were left in the living room.

Dou Xiangling asked, “Ian, are you alright?”

Ian nodded his head and reached for his phone.

However, after searching around in his pockets for a long time, he did not manage to find his phone. He looked at Dou Xiangling with a puzzled gaze and leaned toward her.

Dou Xiangling got a fright and leaned back.

Unexpectedly, Ian leaned his head on her shoulders and whispered in a slightly grieving voice, “Xiangling, my phone is missing.”

Dou Xiangling stiffened for two seconds before she raised her hand and patted his back while gently asking, “What are you trying to do?”

“I want to give Grandfather and the rest a phone call.”

Dou Xiangling: “…”

Can you speak clearly with your current state?

Dou Xiangling tried to explain to him, “Actually you can give them a call tomorrow instead.”

“No, I can’t. I can only get to marry you a day later if I call one day later. I’ve been dreaming of marrying you every single day.”

Dou Xiangling’s face turned red and sometime later, she heard herself asking, “Do you know what to say later?”

“I know. I am going to ask Grandfather and the rest for your hand in marriage and ask them to allow for our marriage.”

Dou Xiangling was suddenly suspicious. “You aren’t drunk are you?”

“No! How could I possibly be drunk?!” Ian answered too quickly and Dou Xiangling felt even more uncertain.

Just then, the head on her shoulder rubbed against her neck and her body shivered as a result.

“Ian, sit up properly first.”

“No~ Xiangling, my phone is missing.”

When he said that, his voice was filled with grievance.

Dou Xiangling suddenly did not know whether to laugh or cry.

She asked, “Which pocket did you put your phone in?”

“My clothes… no, the pockets of my pants.”

As soon as he said that, Ian reached into his clothes pockets once again.

Dou Xiangling watched him rummage through his pocket but to no avail. In the end, he grumbled to her again. “Xiangling, my phone is missing.”

Dou Xiangling tried to push his head away. This man kept rubbing his head on her shoulder and she somehow felt embarrassed deep down inside.

“Stop moving, I’ll help you look for your phone.”

Having said that, she reached out for her phone that she had placed on the side. After grabbing her phone, she checked with him again. “Do you really know what to say to my Grandfather and the rest?”

“Mhmm, I know.”

Dou Xiangling looked at the man who was acting like a kid after getting drunk and refused to move away from her. She somehow felt her heart going soft at the sight of him. By the time she returned to her senses, her hands had already unlocked the phone and given her Father a call.

Dou Zhiyuan’s voice sounded on the other end. Dou Xiangling’s heartbeat quickened and she called out, “Father.”

Dou Zhiyuan was a little surprised that his daughter was calling him at this time and so, he asked with concern, “Xiangling, are you alright over there? Did you encounter something?”

Dou Xiangling’s face turned red and she did not know how to start the conversation.

Just then, Ian took her phone. He suddenly sat up straight and called out in a serious voice, “Father.”

Dou Xiangling: “…”

Dou Zhiyuan who was on the other side of the phone: “…”

Whose child was this? How could he randomly address someone else like that?

Ian said, “I am Ian.”

Dou Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Even though he was a little surprised at how Ian’s voice sounded compared to what he had heard before, he still asked, “Ian, were you looking for me?”

“Yes.” Ian’s voice still sounded very serious. Dou Zhiyuan seemed to have sensed something and his expression turned serious.

The Dou Family were currently having breakfast right now and when the other family members saw his serious expression, they looked at him with a puzzled gaze.

Ian said, “I’m calling you in hopes that you can agree to my marriage with Xiangling.”
