Wearing a black robe with a handsome face, it was none other than Lou Guxiu who was sitting on the main seat.

Qi Yan stretched out his hand in a daze and pointed at him, “You, how did you get in?”

“I came in when you opened the door.” Lou Guxiu propped his chin with his hands and looked at him with interest, “In the middle of the night, are you not afraid it’s a thief?”

“Thieves don’t make a big noise!” After speaking, Qi Yan rushed to Ao Lun’s side and hugged his furry head.

Lou Guxiu glanced at him in disgust. However, he saw that Ao Lun was not dissatisfied and hummed comfortably, making Lou Guxiu despised him even more.

Qi Yan, who had finished messing with Ao Lun, remembered that there was still a person sitting in the main seat. He raised his head and looked at Lou Guxiu, his eyes lit up, “Did you receive the letter I sent you? Then why don’t you send me one back?”

“I happened to be hungry when the carrier pigeon came, so it was roasted and eaten.”

“…” Qi Yan blinked and decided to change the subject, “Your sect leader allows you to bring Ao Lun out?”

Lou Guxiu glanced at him coldly, “I was originally the little servant who raised Ao Lun. I took Ao Lun out for a walk. The sect leader wouldn’t say anything.”

Qi Yan gave a thumbs up, “Your leader is a good man!”

Lou Guxiu looked away: “…” It’s useless to compliment me like this.

“Speaking of which, tomorrow is the Xinghua Festival. Qi Yan stroked Ao Lun’s head, “I don’t want to go on a cruise. But if I don’t go, my mother will force me to go. I really hate this woman, Zhan Roudai. Her mind is too deep, she is not sincere to anyone… But why can’t my mother see her intention clearly?”

Hearing Qi Yan’s complaint, Lou Guxiu chuckled lightly with a hint of teasing in his eyes, “Why, a fool like you can still look at people’s hearts?”

“What’s the point?” Qi Yan retorted displeasedly, “I am upright, but I am not stupid. I know what purpose this woman has come to approach me with!”

This time, instead of hitting him, Lou Guxiu gave him a rare compliment, “You are smart.”

“So come and accompany me tomorrow.” Qi Yan suddenly turned his words around.

Lou Guxiu refused without thinking about it, but when he looked over, he met Qi Yan’s white glowing eyes.

Those eyes full of hope and longing… really seemed like a puppy!

The corners of Lou Guxiu’s mouth twitched a few times and his eyes flashed, “Accompany you to do what?”

“I won’t be bored with you!”

“The Xinghua Festival is never boring.” The street snacks and novel toys on the street would dazzle you.

“But I will be lost if you are not there… and what if I am kidnapped by that bad woman Zhan Roudai? What if she kidnap me and force me to submit? In that case, I will have to marry her in a few days!”

Lou Guxiu really wanted to knock on his brain to see if it was full of mush!

“Zhan Roudai wouldn’t do that kind of thing.” Raising his hand and pinching his eyebrows, Lou Guxiu denied his words one by one, “She won’t force you to submit, you are not so valuable to let her do this kind of thing.”

“But I will be lost if you don’t come. We are friends, aren’t we?”

“……”

The surroundings suddenly fell into silence. Qi Yan innocently looked at Lou Guxiu’s gradually cold face. He tried to reach out and grabbed his sleeve, but he was flung away when he just touched it.

Lou Guxiu didn’t say a word, he just stood up and walked away.

Ao Lun glanced at Qi Yan and followed behind Lou Guxiu, slowly disappeared from Qi Yan’s sight.

Qi Yan, who was a little aggrieved, looked at the direction where one person and one beast had left for a long time. Finally, he sighed as he walked over and locked the door. He climbed back on the couch and stared at the bed carved with wooden flowers.

This night was destined to be sleepless.

The next day, Qi Yan put on a haggard face with insufficient sleep. With a deep smile from Madame Qi, he got into the carriage to Wangyue Lake.

These young ladies made an appointment to meet in the central pavilion of Wangyue Lake, which saved Qi Yan a lot of trouble.

When he came to the pavilion, it was still early, and only the Cheng family’s brother and were playing in the pavilion.

Seeing Qi Yan coming, the two said hello and then chatted about the situation.

“Brother Qi, where have you been in the past few days?” Cheng Ke’s tone had a hint of teasing, “Your old man Qi came to my father, thinking that I took you to sleep in the sweet town1温柔乡: lit. sweet town. This phrase figuratively refers to a place where there are charming ladies, or to a spiritual state of char gentleness and sweetness. It also refers to a place of comfortable life..”

Qi Yan smiled twice and said perfunctorily: “I went up the mountain to practice my true qi.”

Cheng Ke was a well-known playboy. He was very familiar with all the brothels in this city. He tried to take Qi Yan to several times, but Qi Yan refused.

Cheng Zhu saw Qi Yan’s face was not good and smiled, “Brother Qi Yan, do you have a girl in your heart?”

When the voice fell, Qi Yan’s face turned red and he hesitated, “Nonsense! What nonsense! Xiao Zhu, you’re a girl, don’t talk nonsense!”

Seeing his nervous look, Cheng Zhu and Cheng Ke looked at each other and smiled. The two bad-hearted brother and sister gathered around Qi Yan with a smile.

“Our dull Brother Qi has a girl in his heart~.”

“Yes, yes, Brother Qi Yan, tell me which family the girl is from, I will help you find out more~.”

Qi Yan, who was surrounded in the middle, sat up straight and didn’t look away, “There is no girl.”

“Obviously there is. Brother Qi Yan, you are still hiding it from Xiao Zhu.” Cheng Zhu began to be coquettish.

On the other side, Cheng Ke also began to be coquettish, “Brother Qi, do you also want me to call you ‘Qi~Yan~ge~ge~’?”

Qi Yan’s small body shook and he looked over crying without tears, “Cheng Ke, that’s enough!”

Cheng Ke and Cheng Zhu were two years younger than Qi Yan. Cheng Zhu was a cute girl, so it’s okay to call him gege; Cheng Ke, a playboy with a richer nightlife than Qi Yan, was calling Qi Yan ‘gege’? Oh no, it’s terrible.

Just when Qi Yan was attacked from the left and right and couldn’t retreat, a young man arrived.

His face was as cold as ice and even when he walked he exuded cold aura. The whole person was a walking iceberg- the young master of the Rong family, Rong Ansheng.

“Brother Rong is here.” Cheng Zhu quickly sat up straight.

Cheng Ke also coughed lightly and throwing open his fan to gently fanning the wind.

Turning his grateful gaze on Rong Ansheng, Qi Yan got a faint nod in response.

After taking his seat, Rong Ansheng also asked Qi Yan, “What have you done in the past three days?”

“I went up the mountain to cultivate.”

“Why don’t you tell your family?” Rong Ansheng frowned disapprovingly, “Uncle Qi has been working hard to find you.”

“Uh, I went in a hurry. I didn’t have time to talk to my family.”

“Brother Rong, can’t you see, Brother Qi Yan has a girl he likes.” Cheng Zhu’s rosy voice rang out.

Receiving Rong Ansheng’s questioning gaze, Qi Yan couldn’t bear the ice-cold eyes and said tremblingly, “No, it’s not a girl.”

“Pftt, if it’s not a girl, is it a young man?” Cheng Ke didn’t believe it.

But when his voice fell, the other three looked straight at him, Cheng Ke’s smile trembled a little.

“What are you guys looking at me for… I, I’m talking about Qi Yan!” As soon as Cheng Ke finished refuting, he suddenly thought of something and quickly looked up at Qi Yan, his eyes full of shock, “You, you can’t be… are you?”

“What?”

“Just tell me, is it a lady or a young man who has been with you these past few days?”

“It’s a young man…”

As the voice fell, Cheng Ke, Cheng Zhu, and the cold-faced Rong Ansheng all showed expressions of world destruction.
