Chapter 47: Alcohol and Lust Leave One So Worn, I Should Quit Drinking from Now On

The next day.

Zeng Shen groggily opened his eyes, his slightly confused and dazed gaze falling on the bed where he lay alone. He felt a bit bewildered.

"This seems to be Yuqing's bedroom?"

Muttering to himself, Zeng Shen tried to get up to open the bedroom door and get a drink of water.

But a wave of weakness washed over him.

Immediately following that.

He felt a pounding in his head, as if his blood vessels were about to burst, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.

Feeling uncomfortable, he had to lie back down and close his eyes.

As soon as he closed his eyes, the scenes from last night flashed by: drinking with Liu Tongtong and Li Yuqing at the door, the three of them entering the bedroom, and then him falling asleep on the bed in a daze, experiencing some pleasant sensory moments.

It all seemed like a dream, flowing through his mind like water, then becoming blurry.

"Last night, did the three of us actually sleep in the same bed?"

Zeng Shen rubbed his throbbing temples, trying to recall the scenes from last night's drunkenness, his voice tinged with hesitation and disbelief.

"It seems like after I fell asleep, they undressed me, and then I was stimulated, leading to continuous pleasant sensations?"

Zeng Shen sat up again, leaning against the headboard, looking down at his neatly dressed pajamas, and muttered uncertainly to himself.

"Or were those pleasant experiences just a dream?"

"Cre-eak."

Suddenly, the door opened.

Li Yuqing, wearing a bathrobe, walked in. Her pure and sweet face radiated with joy as she said, "Hubby, you're awake! Did you know? Our video got over two million likes, and we gained more than ten thousand followers. I think we can start preparing to shoot the second short video."

"Mm."

Zeng Shen responded lightly, looking at Li Yuqing's bright smile, hesitatingly said, "Baby, last night after we got drunk and came back, did the three of us sleep together, and then after I fell asleep, did you two..."

"Hubby, what are you talking about? After we came back last night, Tongtong went back to her room to sleep."

Li Yuqing interrupted, then sat at the bedside, looking at Zeng Shen with her bright eyes and teased, "Or did you hope something happened with Tongtong last night?"

"No," Zeng Shen shook his head, rubbing his throbbing head, and continued, "I guess I drank too much and dreamed."

Li Yuqing, hearing this, laughed as if she had discovered a new world, "So hubby blacks out when drunk."

"Only when I drink too much. But I have a vague consciousness, like something happened around me, yet it's as blurry as a dream, making it hard to be sure."

As Zeng Shen expressed his feelings, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a red stain on the white bedsheet, and he asked, surprised, "Why is there blood on the sheet?"

Li Yuqing glanced over, exclaimed, blushing, "Oh, that's embarrassing. Hubby, it's because my period came suddenly last night, and I didn't use a pad, so it stained the sheet."

With that, she pulled aside the white bedsheet.

"Oh."

Zeng Shen nodded, half-believing.

"Does your head still hurt, hubby? Let me massage it," Li Yuqing offered, rubbing Zeng Shen's temples while continuing, "I ordered some takeout for you: a hangover soup and some lean pork congee with preserved egg. If you feel better, I'll help you freshen up, and you can eat something to recover."

"Okay." Zeng Shen nodded, letting Li Yuqing help him out of the bedroom. He glanced at the closed door of Liu Tongtong's room.

"Is Tongtong still asleep?"

"She woke up early, had lunch, took a shower, and went back to sleep," Li Yuqing replied.

"Lunch? It's already noon?" Zeng Shen exclaimed.

"Yeah, it's already one o'clock," Li Yuqing said.

"You two really hold your liquor well. We drank a dozen bottles of fruit wine last night, and you still woke up before me," Zeng Shen said as Li Yuqing helped him to the bathroom.

In the bathroom.

Looking at his tired and slightly weak face in the large mirror on the wall, Zeng Shen muttered in disbelief, "Alcohol and lust can leave one so worn. I should quit drinking from now on."

Li Yuqing chuckled, "You're not mentioning the 'lust' part, hubby."

...

After finishing the hangover soup and congee, Zeng Shen felt more energetic and physically restored.

But his head still throbbed slightly.

Not wanting to think about anything, he returned to bed for another half-hour nap, feeling much better and ready to quickly earn his survival points for the day.

"Baby, I have to go out and take care of something," Zeng Shen said.

"Oh, will you be back tonight?"

"No, I plan to tinker with some things on the home computer."

"Alright, drive safely, hubby."

After Zeng Shen left.

Li Yuqing went to Liu Tongtong's room, turned the doorknob, and tossed the white bedsheet at her, saying, "Here's your mark."

Liu Tongtong reached for the white bedsheet, glanced at it, and asked, "Has he left?"

"Yes." Li Yuqing nodded, a bit displeased, "I told you, it was a good opportunity to reveal our relationship to hubby, and then the three of us could openly be together. Why did you run back to your room so early and not let me tell hubby what happened last night?"

As Liu Tongtong folded the sheet, she replied slowly, "If we did that, I wouldn't know if Brother Shen would cherish me as he does you."

"You just overthink things."

[Host finally escaped from the territory of the Tier 3 Undead Deity, survival points +10]

Just stepping out of the Spirit Gathering Building.

Hearing the prompt in his ear, Zeng Shen opened the attribute panel for a look.

[Survival Points: 12,190]

"12,190 survival points?"

Zeng Shen frowned, puzzled.

He remembered having 11,780 survival points yesterday.

Adding the 10 points he just received, it should be 11,790.

Where did the extra 400 survival points come from?

"Could it be I earned them from Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong at some point?"

Perplexed, Zeng Shen opened the system log for a look.

"System Log: At 4:15 AM, the host, under the ravages of the Tier 3 Undead Deity and its Tier 4 Ghost Clan Leader, finally subdued and repelled them, survival points +400."

Seeing the system log, scenes from last night's drunkenness and the wonderful sensory experiences flashed through Zeng Shen's mind.

In that instant, his eyes widened, fully awake.

"After getting drunk last night, I really was drained by them in my hazy state!"

"But why did Li Yuqing say nothing happened?"

A trace of confusion crossed Zeng Shen's mind as he drove off to earn his daily points.

By the time he finished, it was 4 PM.

He checked his survival points (14,760) and summoned the lottery wheel, whispering.

"Ten consecutive draws."

The lottery wheel spun before him.

Soon.

Flashes of white light passed by, followed by rapid prompts in his ear.
