The next morning, Shi Yen placed a hand over her pounding forehead. She sat up on her bed, groggily opening her eyes. Shizi jumped on her lap, curling her body over her folded legs. Shi Yen ruffled her fur when she heard her sister walk in.
Shi Ailin had entered the room, holding a tray of what could be a cure for a hangover.

Shi Ailin chuckled. "What about cake?"
Shi Yen arched a brow as she looked at the piece of cake on a small plate.

Shi Yen fell back on the mattress. "Why did I have to challenge Yuan Shun to a drinking contest. I missed out on a great night. I mean, have you seen Yuan Shun? He's huge. I should have known better."
Shi Ailin laughed. "What provoked you?"
