Chapter 556: Chapter 556: I Intend to Get Drunk, Why are You Giving Me Sobering Medicine? Chapter 556: Chapter 556: I Intend to Get Drunk, Why are You Giving Me Sobering Medicine? Just a little tipsy before, but then the drunkenness completely faded as I kept drinking.

I downed another bottle, dammit!

Feeling refreshed!

Even more alert than Leng Yan with his menthol oil!

After gulping down another bottle, it got out of hand, now I’m thinking of running a few laps around the Imperial City to cool off.

“What did you just give me to eat?”

Xu Jiayang asked.

He was somewhat tipsy earlier, so he wasn’t paying attention to what Xia Weibao gave him to eat.

Anyway, she wouldn’t harm him.

But now that he’s sobered up, he realizes something’s off.

“Sobering medicine, one pill and you won’t get drunk from a thousand cups. You’ve had a whole bottle, I guess you won’t be getting drunk this year.”

This was medicine she got after seeing Zhuang Xuejun get drunk a few days ago during dinner with Wan Ke and the others, thinking it was dangerous for her.

She didn’t expect it to come in handy so soon.

Xu Jiayang, “…”

There’s a “mmp” in his heart, not sure if he should say it.

I’m so heartbroken I’m nearly dead!

I wanted to drown my sorrows in alcohol, and look at you, giving me sobering medicine, and making me sober for a whole year!!!

Damnit!

In a year’s time, all my sadness will have been worn away by time, why the hell would I still need to get drunk?

Seeing Xu Jiayang staring at her, Xia Weibao grinned.

“Don’t worry, it’s purely herbal with no additives, absolutely no side effects.”

Xu Jiayang forced a chuckle, “Thanks a lot.”

“No problem, that’s what friends are for.”

He collapsed onto the couch, his expression somewhat agonized.

He truly had not expected the guilt he couldn’t let go of to be a tool used by others!

Seeing his pain, Xia Weibao felt a bit of compassion.

It reminded her of the dark times when the original host was slandered, it was just like living in hell.

She had always been reluctant to completely accept the memories of the original host, which is why she hadn’t been able to fully immerse herself in modern life after so long.

Besides her own dominant consciousness from her previous life being too overpowering, another reason was because she didn’t want to recall the original host’s experiences.

Because, they were too heartbreaking.

That feeling of being abandoned by the whole world was truly unbearable.

Fear, dread, helplessness, injustice, uncertainty, struggle, screams, despair.

And eventually, she was driven mad.

In those three years in the mental hospital, fuzzy and confounded, she did not remember many things clearly.

But the most frequent image in her mind was being bullied.

Those doctors, nurses, and people who took the opportunity of visiting to bully her.

Even when the original host went mad, they did not let her be.

Beating, humiliating, bullying.

With every recollection, Xia Weibao’s heart ached.

Pity for the original host.

This vengeance, she must exact!

She thought Xu Jiayang’s years shrouded in darkness for being slandered were probably like what the original host went through.

“Director Xu, it’s all in the past. What you need to do now is to stand up and not let those with ill intentions succeed.”

“I know.”

Xu Jiayang said softly, it took him a while to take his hand off his forehead.

His eyes showed a determination and ruthlessness he had never had before, “I used to restrain myself everywhere because of guilt.

But now…”
What he’s owed, he will take it all back!

Those who wanted to climb over him, he would make them pay the price!

Xia Weibao patted his shoulder, “Go for it, I support you!”

Then she took out two recording pens.

“These are what I recorded, one is Wan Ke asking me to frame you, the other is what Chu Ying just said.”

Xu Jiayang was stunned, his mouth slightly agape, “You…”

Xia Weibao was eagerly waiting for him to praise her intelligence, even her modest expression was ready.
