Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law-Chapter 1269: Memory Fragments

"Jiang Feng, um... no... ahh!!!"

Baili Xiyue shook her head desperately, her consciousness about to completely collapse!

Her two fair feet flailed wildly on the bed, kicking off her sandals, trying to kneel and push against Jiang Feng, but Jiang Feng pinned her down so hard she couldn't move at all.

Having no other option, she could only punch Jiang Feng's back with all her might!

Baili Xiyue was different from Nangong Qingcheng and the other girls, not the delicate type at heart. Her fair and tender fists actually packed quite a punch.

Punching Jiang Feng's back was like beating a drum, which finally made Jiang Feng furrow his brows and lift his head, allowing Baili Xiyue to quickly dodge away.

Yet, she hadn't expected her movement would only momentarily pause Jiang Feng, not entirely freeing her.

Just as she was feeling helpless and on the verge of tears, turning her body to escape from beneath Jiang Feng, he grabbed her again, even more fiercely pulling her back...

"No..."

With a heartrending scream, the sound echoed throughout the previously quiet guest room...

...

Inside the guest room, it was unclear how long it had been ongoing.

It was quite reckless of Baili Xiyue to have sent Baili Xi and Bai Touying both away earlier; even the servant guards didn't dare linger by the door.

Thus, no one knew how excessive Jiang Feng was inside, only knowing Baili Xiyue ended up crying until her tears nearly ran dry, her throat hoarse.

Finally, after a long while, Jiang Feng stopped, turned over, and continued to sleep deeply, snoring like thunder.

And at that moment, Baili Xiyue was left "tormented" beyond recognition, tears streaming down like rain as she lay on the bed like a corpse.

She was truly in too much pain, lacking the strength to even move a toe, crying alone for a while before finally regaining some strength.

"Jiang Feng, you bastard! You absolute cosmic bastard!!!"

Baili Xiyue, using all her strength, sat up and fiercely punched Jiang Feng several times, even kicked him a few times, venting her anger.

Yet every movement felt like needles pricking her, as though she were splitting apart!

"I usually offer myself to you, and you refuse, but when you're drunk, you do this to me??"

"You beast, you awful, vile beast!!"

Unwilling to resign herself, Baili Xiyue picked up a pillow and vigorously hit Jiang Feng again, but he remained unmoved, deep in sleep.

However, after the earlier commotion, the hostility in Jiang Feng's demeanor gradually subsided, his breathing calmed considerably, and his body temperature returned to normal.

Baili Xiyue cried and cursed alone for a while longer, eventually swallowing her grievances and cleaning up the bloodstains on the bed, then re-dressing herself.

Afterward, she tidied her disheveled hair, trudged barefoot out of the bed, and after giving Jiang Feng a stern glare, staggered out.

At this moment, Bai Touying happened to be walking over from the corridor outside.

Seeing the heartbroken Baili Xiyue, he worriedly asked, "Miss, you came out? I was still concerned about you and thought to come and check; are you okay? How is Young Master Feng now...?"

"I'm fine."

Baili Xiyue's face was pale, her eyes red and swollen, devoid of spirit as she passed by Bai Touying and left.

Bai Touying stood there, puzzled, watching her back in disbelief, then let out a long sigh.

Of course, he couldn't think of anything else; he only assumed that his young lady was heartbroken beyond belief, hence she cried like that.

...

Time passed, though it's hard to say how much.

When the sky dulled to dusk, and the orange-red glow of clouds outside the window shone on Jiang Feng's body, he slowly opened his eyes again.

This time, however, his eyes were no longer blood-red; everything had returned to normal.

Upon waking, Jiang Feng felt genuinely as if his head would split open, as if someone had hammered his skull.

It had been years since he last experienced such a feeling, leaving him momentarily dizzy.

"Huh? Where am I?!"

After regaining some clarity, Jiang Feng looked around at his location, feeling puzzled.

As far as he remembered, he was in the wine cellar sneaking a drink and passed out on a crate. How did he end up here?

Many memories were fragmented, vaguely recalling the wine had a strong aftereffect, knocking him down completely; beyond that, he remembered nothing.

In his confusion, Jiang Feng glanced up at the clock on the wall—it was already past five in the afternoon. He had slept an entire afternoon!!

He was about to get up when he suddenly noticed his clothes felt strange...

What situation was he in?!

What exactly happened while he was unconscious?!

Fully puzzled, Jiang Feng quickly dressed, jumped out of bed, pushed the door open, and went outside.

Perhaps it was fate, but Bai Touying was approaching the guest room once more to check on Jiang Feng's condition.

Seeing Jiang Feng walking out, he was instantly startled, almost as if seeing a ghost!

"Jiang... Young Master Feng! You... You're awake? You actually woke up?!" Bai Touying rubbed his eyes hard, doubting his sight!

"What on earth happened? Where am I, how did I end up here?" Jiang Feng had too many questions, asking right away.

"Young Master Feng, you drank too much earlier. We all thought you would never wake up again, so the Old Master had me settle you here," Bai Touying replied with a wry smile.

"Wouldn't wake up?" Jiang Feng frowned. What did that mean?

Even if he accidentally drank too much, it wasn't as if he would remain asleep forever!

"Young Master Feng, it's unbeknownst to you, the wine you drank in the cellar was the Old Master's 'Immortal Drunk'! It's said that the wine can make one drunk for decades! But you woke up the same day; truly a miracle, perhaps the potency was somewhat exaggerated!"

Bai Touying smiled with relief.

Yet hearing those words, Jiang Feng fell into contemplation.

He knew that any wine capable of knocking him out wasn't ordinary!

He awoke simply due to his strong constitution.

If it were anyone else, they might really have drunk themselves into a decades-long stupor!

"While I was unconscious, did anyone visit? Why do I vaguely recall someone checking on me?!"

Jiang Feng asked in confusion.
