Chapter 937: Chapter 935 Su Han’s Change

Su Yingxue rapped her on the head, “What are you doing drinking, kid? Pour it out for me!”

“I won’t pour it out! I want to drink it! Besides, my birthday has passed, I’m fourteen now! I’m not a child anymore! Brother Yu said that in another year I’ll come of age! Once I’m of age, I’ll be a grown Miss!”

Su Miaoyan protected her wine glass, pursing her lips forcefully.

“Hiss! It’s always ‘Brother Yu’ this, ‘Brother Yu’ that. Su Miaoyan, has Xiao Yu drugged you? You two haven’t, by any chance…”

Just as Su Yingxue was about to voice her suspicions, Su Han quickly clutched her hand, “Yingxue, don’t talk nonsense! Miaoyan is still young, but she knows her limits. She wants to drink, so just pour her a little! It’s fine!”

Su Han came to Su Miaoyan’s defense over the cup of wine, and Miaoyan quickly drank it down.

“So spicy…”

She coughed once, the liquid sliding down her throat, but it really took her by surprise, giving her an unprecedented thrill!

“Hahaha!”

Seeing her little mannerisms, Su Han couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Su Yingxue held her cup at the side, looking at Su Han and feeling that she was very different from usual.

In the past, she always adhered strictly to the rules of propriety, the model among young ladies from noble families, meticulous in thought and never putting a foot wrong.

Having not seen her for several months, she had become much more cheerful.

It was as if they had switched roles; before, it was always Su Han who urged her and Su Miaoyan to stop messing around.

Now, Su Han seemed more indulgent towards Su Miaoyan.

“Sister Xue, why aren’t you drinking? Don’t tell me your alcohol tolerance is even worse than mine?”

Su Miaoyan deliberately squinted her eyes, teasing Su Yingxue.

Su Yingxue was about to drink, but when the wine reached her lips, she felt a bit nauseous, “Never mind, switch it for juice for me. I’m not feeling great with the smell of alcohol today.”

“Even Sister Xue has a day when she doesn’t drink. Let me drink for you!”

As Su Miaoyan spoke, she went to snatch her wine cup, but before she could grab it, Su Han had already drunk Su Yingxue’s wine.

Her cheeks were slightly red, “Since you’re not drinking, I might as well drink some more with Miaoyan.”

The dinner was enjoyed heartily, and the drinks were enjoyed even more.

Su Miaoyan became drunk and was carried back to sleep soundly.

Su Han was also drunk, and when Su Yingxue wanted to give her some sobering medicine, she pushed it away, “Don’t bother. It’s rare for me to be drunk. I don’t want to sober up so quickly.”

“Sister, what’s happening to you?”

Su Yingxue noticed the change in Su Han but didn’t understand why it was so significant.

Dismissing Zhifen and Zhilan, Su Han linked arms with Su Yingxue and staggered alongside her through the courtyard, a bitter smile on her face, “Yingxue, do you also feel that Sister no longer seems like the noble young lady from before, the role model among Young Misses?”

Su Yingxue nodded. “Yes, Sister, you’ve changed from before.”

Getting drunk, finding a husband, managing a store—such things were never part of Su Han’s prior actions.

In everyone’s eyes, she was the unattainable ‘white moonlight’, admirable but only to be looked up to from afar, out of reach.

“But I feel that the way I’m living now is the most comfortable and enjoyable… Before, I lived for the family, for the identity of the Eldest Young Miss of the Su family, for my husband, for the Marquis’s Manor. Not once was it for myself.”

The unbearable sadness in her eyes flowed out with her tears.

Recalling the days of the past, although she was praised and envied by everyone’s gazes, did she truly benefit from it?
