A figure sitting on the single-seat sofa could vaguely be seen. Due to high backrest and the fact that its position was on the inside, Xie Yang hadn’t noticed it when he entered the room. The corners of his mouth curled up before he quickly lowered it. “Master Liao, why are you here?”

“……” 

Qiu Xing stood up, went to the door, and turned on all the lights in the room. Then he strode to Xie Yang. Xie Yang squinted uncomfortably after being suddenly exposed to light and he raised his hand to his eyebrows.

He was persuaded to drink a lot of alcohol during the dinner and he really was a bit drunk. Although he could purify all the alcohol with his ability, he was a bit reluctant since he wanted to leave all of his ability to the mouse who wouldn’t be seen for the next few months.

Qiu Xing grabbed Xie Yang’s hand that was pressing against his eyebrows and looked at Xie Yang’s reddish eyes. There was a fire in his voice as he asked, “Do you have a headache? How much did you drink?”

“Not much. A few bottles of beer, a few cups of white wine and half a glass of red wine.” 

Qiu Xing couldn’t believe it. “You actually dared to mix drinks?”

Xie Yang squinted at him and smiled. “Why? Can’t I?”

Qiu Xing was taken aback. He frowned and called out, “Xie Yang.”

“Why? Can’t I?” Xie Yang asked again. He pulled back his hand, pulled at the neckline of his clothes and took a few steps to the side to lean against the armrest of the sofa. He raised a hand to his chin to watch Qiu Xing. “Why can’t I? I am an adult. Can’t I drink alcohol?”

“You’re still growing—”

“I’m not growing anymore. My height has been finalized when you hid and secretly became Master Liao.” Xie Yang pulled at his collar again. Since he was drunk, his voice was much hoarser than usual and his words a bit softer. “Guess how tall I am now? Do you want to know? I won’t tell you. You deserve to miss the last moments of my growth into an adult.”

Qiu Xing stared at Xie Yang and his lips tightened.

“This is just the beginning. You will miss more about me in the future. An artist has to travel frequently. If I fire Wu Shui, you won’t even know where I am in the future.” 

Xie Yang took out his phone from his pocket, opened it in front of Qiu Xing and turned it off. Then he smiled again and said, “There is this. As long as I turn this off, you will never be able to contact me again.”

“Xie Yang.” Qiu Xing stepped forward and grabbed Xie Yang’s hand. He wanted to say something but finally suppressed it forcibly. “Don’t be angry. You are drunk. I brought you some sobering tea. You should drink it and then take a shower before resting.”

Xie Yang didn’t smile as he watched Qiu Xing without any expression.

Qiu Xing and Xie Yang looked at each other. Then Qiu Xing lowered his eyes to avoid Xie Yang’s gaze. He reached out a hand to help Xie Yang rise and said, “Don’t lean against the sofa. Sit down and drink some sobering tea—” 

Xie Yang suddenly reached out to hug Qiu Xing. Since he was sitting on the armrest of the sofa, his head happened to lean against Qiu Xing’s heart. Qiu Xing froze for a long time. He raised his hand and placed it on Xie Yang’s shoulder, not pushing this person away but not hugging him either.
