The Girls and Their Lovers

22 Brewing Problem 6

The next morning

Qian Ci opened her eyes and quickly closed it once again, feeling the sunlight was too strong for her tender eyes. Opening her eyes slowly, she looked around and recognized that she was currently in her own room. How could she be here? Her last memory was inside a restaurant, with Mo Ting and Ye Bai. They were happily discussing about possible soundtrack outcome and she remembered she drank a glass of wine. Wine? Oh my!

Realization hit her. She should tell housekeeper aunty to help her cover it from Li Si Cheng. If he knew she was out drunk outside alone with just two guys, he would be raging mad. Qian Ci ran down from her bedroom towards the kitchen area.

"Aunty! Aunty!" She shouted her name started from the hall.

"Yes, Madam?" Aunty looked out from the kitchen. Her hands was dirty with dough, it seemed like she was preparing to bake some bread or Qian Ci favorite chocolate pastry. Seeing aunty face made her feel relieved and she rushed over towards her side.

"Aunty! Was I really drunk last night? Who sent me back?"

"Yes, Madam. You were really drunk. Even the driver and me needed to carry you out from the car. You even hugged me and kept saying nonsense. If I did not stop you, you would definitely hug the driver as well."

Qian Ci knew her drinking habit was that bad, but she did not expect to get drunk so fast just after a glass of wine. Is it my alcohol tolerance very low, or the wine too strong? Qian Ci could not be bothered about the fact yet. She needed to get Aunty to her side.

"Aunty, aunty! Listen to me. Whatever happened yesterday night, don't let it reach Si Cheng ears okay?" Aunty hesitated upon Qian Ci request. She had raised Li Si Cheng and never once she ever lied to him.

"Aunty, please." Qian Ci was now pleading towards her. She was desperate enough to beg her.

"Okay, Aunty promise you. But you also need to promise me, you will never get drunk again when Master not around."

"I promise, Aunty! It was a mistake last night." Qian Ci was greatly thankful towards Aunty.

"What happened last night?" Si Cheng questioning voice came from behind Su Qian Ci and with his presence, Qian Ci confidence almost dropped to the lowest level.

She was torn between longing and fear of him knowing that she was drunk. However, Qian Ci was getting smarter and did not want to alert Si Cheng on her last night escapades.

"Darling, you are home!" Qian Ci quickly went over to hug him tightly which melted Si Cheng heart. It was all worth it to working for two days straight without any rest. All his tiredness was immediately washed away when he reached home and got a warm hug from his wife. Life was perfect, at least his life was.

"En, I am home. What are you doing in the kitchen this morning? And with your nighties on." Si Cheng smiled devilishly handsome regardless of his messy tie and wrinkled suits. He just landed from 10 hour flight and went straight home. Even inside his plane, he still continued to work to finalize the contract, which made him possible to come back home within two days.

"Don't you dare to have any perverted idea, Mr. Li."

"And don't you dare calling me Mr. Li again". He playfully touched her nose tip. Both of their interaction had made everyone in the household could not believe their eyes. Only in front of their Madam, Master would relax and show more emotion than to any other people. Before he even met Madam, his smile would be nowhere to be seen.

Aunty who watched their interaction from the kitchen could not contain her motherly smile. She was happy when she saw both her Madam and Master were happy too.

Leaving Si Cheng to take shower and take a rest, Qian Ci went to open her email and saw that Mo Ting assistant, Lu Che had sent her the script. Since she did not want to bother Li Si Cheng, Qian Ci quietly bring her laptop to study room and read the whole script, leaving Si Cheng time to rest.

Qian Ci was so absorbed by the whole scene and she cried together with the emotional scene, and smiled when she read the funny moments. Within two hours she finally finished reading script and brought her laptop together with musical paper and pen towards her favorite grand piano in the garden.

She came up with a few idea and gently pressing her piano to test the melody. Her favorite moment would be the emotional scene, when two of the sisters finally realized they were actually real sisters in the middle of danger and soon after they met with separation.

Qian Ci had her own bad memory with separation and she could understand very well the emotion that emerged from the roles. A sad tunes started to form into a beautiful sad melody and Qian Ci quickly wrote it down. She did not expect after reading for the first time, she could get an inspiration immediately.

Happily, she stayed inside the garden until night had fallen and the chilly weather started to make them tremble. Remembering her husband who had tried to come home faster for her to give her warmth made her quicken her pace to reach their home.
