Chapter 255: 248: Trouble Caused by Aphrodisiac Fragrance Again (First Update) Chapter 255: 248: Trouble Caused by Aphrodisiac Fragrance Again (First Update) Let’s return to the Guan Family’s engagement banquet.

Everything was kept simple, as per Jhiang Youyou’s request.

The feast downstairs had already ended. Guan Sixing didn’t enjoy socializing, and it wasn’t good for Jhiang Youyou to overexert herself, so Lady Tan Linglan suggested they rest upstairs while she and her husband took care of seeing off the guests.

Guan Sixing closed the door.

“Youyou.”

Jhiang Youyou didn’t respond and sat down on the bed, which was adorned with a pair of dolls symbolizing blessing and joy. She poked the belly of one doll. It was hard; there was something inside.

She unzipped the doll’s clothes and found longan and red dates inside the pocket.

Guan Sixing approached, “Are you still angry with me?”

Actually, she was not angry anymore, but after being petulantly standoffish for so long, she needed a slow descent from her high ground.

She started peeling a longan.

Guan Sixing had drunk some wine and was a bit tipsy. He crouched and half lay on the edge of the bed, taking out longans one by one from the pocket of the other doll.

“I got Gu Yihuan drunk,” he said as he peeled a longan and offered it to Jhiang Youyou. “It was Gu Yihuan who brought that perfume bottle to my house.”

He had asked Xie Shang about it; that perfume contained Aphrodisiac Fragrance, which induces lust. After he had smashed the perfume bottle, he had several dreams like that, hence why he mistook reality for a dream.

All because Gu Yihuan mistakenly brought the perfume to his house.

Jhiang Youyou accepted the longan he handed her. The olive branch was extended, and she was easily appeased, “With how little you can drink, how did you manage to get him drunk?”

“I diluted my wine with a lot of water.”
