When Lanqiao woke up the next day, it was already bright.

The flowers that once appeared in dreams disappeared.

Lan Qiao rubbed his eyes and sat up, looking at his clean and tidy tent. He couldn't figure out what happened yesterday.

Is she really here?

Lan Qiao dressed up neatly, lifted the curtain and came out, and saw Gongsun Bao, Fan Niang and Da Fengxian all gathered outside his tent, looking strange, as if they were sneaking around.

"Are you... okay?" Lan Qiao asked suspiciously when he saw the three of them trying to escape.

"We...this...is okay...haha, it's okay!" The three of them looked at each other, and Da Feng said haha ​​first, "We are...on the night watch together."

"Yes, let's watch the night together." Gongsun Bao patted his head, looked Lan Qiao up and down and said: "Looking at the commander's radiant face, and yesterday's dejection has been wiped away, I know that the commander must have had a good rest last night."

Fan Niang also winked and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is not here in vain."

Lan Qiao was startled and said: "Sister-in-law? Are you talking about Hua...she's here?"

Gongsun Bao chuckled and said: "Why did she come? Sister-in-law stayed in the commander's tent all night and left just before dawn. Hey, but then again, the commander is really fierce, sister-in-law

She screamed in pain and limped when she walked, which is really distressing."

"I feel sorry for you, uncle!" Lan Qiao rolled his eyes angrily, but felt a little uneasy in his heart. It seemed that Hua Yuxi had indeed come last night, helped him clean the tent, and re-applied medicine and bandage for him.

So, did those "conversations" between him and her in the dream, and the subsequent beating of her, really happen?

He tried hard to recall his dream last night, and vaguely remembered that he had said a lot of things that he shouldn't have said, especially to her, and he seemed to have hit her in the end.

The bamboo pole was standing quietly beside his bed at this moment. He remembered that in the dream, Hua Yuxi had confessed her mistake to him and begged for mercy, but he insisted on punishing her and hit her soles with the bamboo pole, and asked her to count the number herself.

.

"One." Hua Yuxi knelt on the ground with her snow-white soles spread out. After being hit moderately by Lan Qiao, she said aggrievedly: "It hurts..."

Lan Qiao ignored her and hit her a second time. Hua Yuxi could only continue to count down with tears in her eyes, then the third and fourth...

He can no longer remember how many times he hit her last night. If this really happened, then he must have gone too far.

I hope this is just a simple dream. Although Hua Yuxi came here, she didn't say anything inappropriate to her, nor did she hit her.

Lan Qiao's heart seemed to be suddenly tightened by something. He grabbed Gongsun Bao eagerly for confirmation and asked, "You said she screamed in pain? How did she scream?"

Gongsun Bao murmured: "How can I learn this...it's too..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhu Qingxiao coming from a distance. He shouted in his heart for a savior. He quickly said, "You guys talk first," and took Fan Niang and Da Feng with him and ran away without looking back.

Zhu Qingxiao looked good. He held a thick scarf in his hand, put it around Lan Qiao's neck and said: "This is a scarf knitted by hundreds of people. It is the heart and soul of everyone in the girls' camp. There is also a stitch of mine in it. They let me

I dedicate it to you."

"Did you spend the night at the girls' camp? Where was Hua Yuxi?" Lan Qiao asked, touching the fabric of the scarf.

Zhu Qingxiao said calmly: "She came here at dawn, and she knitted the last stitch on this scarf."

Lan Qiao asked: "Is there anything strange about her?"

"Strange?" Zhu Qingxiao shook his head and said, "The sky was too dark, I didn't notice it."

Lan Qiao was about to ask again, when suddenly Tieniu came from the direction of the camp gate, glanced at Lan Qiao and Zhu Qingxiao beside him, and said with a strange expression: "Another young lady whom I have never seen before came to the commander and said her surname was

king."

"Your surname is Wang?" Lan Qiao asked curiously, "She came alone?"

"No, she was also followed by a young man, probably her bodyguard or something." Tieniu recalled, "There's no harm in looking at each other."

When Lan Qiao walked to the camp gate, he saw Wang Xiaowan and Chen Yuheng. The former was rubbing his hands in the cold. When he saw him coming out, he said: "Xinyuan Tea House is the first property I bought. It has been renovated and will reopen this evening.

Mr. Gu will come to the scene to tell stories, and he also invites the young master to honor me and do a favor for me."

Chen Yuheng also encouraged: "Go, go, master, I haven't heard Mr. Gu's storytelling yet, it must be wonderful."

"Are Hua Yuxi going too?" Lan Qiao asked Wang Xiaowan.

Wang Xiaowan nodded and said: "Of course, I have reserved the best box on the second floor for you. Then you can drink tea and listen to books without interruption."

"Then I'll go." Lan Qiao said cheerfully.

"I want to go too." When Zhu Qingxiao heard that there was a good show, he took Lan Qiao's arm and said coquettishly.

Wang Xiaowan seemed a little displeased, but he had no right to object. He reminded Lan Qiao of the time again, and then left with Chen Yuheng.

In the evening, Lan Qiao and Zhu Qingxiao walked into the Xinyuan Tea House, which was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations and became crowded again after many days.

The boy guarding the door had already given Wang Xiaowan's instructions. As soon as he saw them coming, he immediately took them to the reserved box upstairs. At this time, Hua Yuxi was sitting on a round stool in the box, raising her feet leisurely.

Eating melon seeds.

Lan Qiao's first reaction when he saw Hua Yuxi was to look at her feet, trying to confirm that the beating he had last night just happened in his dream.

But Hua Yuxi wore neat shoes and socks, as well as a gorgeous and dignified dress. Except for her hands, there was not an inch of exposed skin below her neck. Only her dress was cut just right, outlining her graceful body curves.

"How's it going? Does it look good?" Hua Yuxi chuckled, seeming to have forgotten the quarrel with Lan Qiao. She flicked the melon seeds she had just taken out with her fingertips and flew straight to Lan Qiao's mouth.

Lan Qiao opened his mouth briefly and took the melon seeds into his mouth, but Zhu Qingxiao looked at Hua Yuxi with dissatisfaction and said: "A witch is a witch. A dog can't change from eating shit, and a witch can't change from seducing people."

Hua Yuxi smiled slowly and said: "The little princess is a noble person after all, how can she be full of foul language and not have the slightest bit of grace? If you scold me like this, it's not me who is embarrassed, but your Brother Lanqiao."

When Zhu Qingxiao looked at Lan Qiao, he saw that his face turned red and he was completely embarrassed. Then he realized that he had made a mistake and said, "What did you do to Brother Lan Qiao yesterday? Anyway, I am here, and today you

Don’t even think about it…”

Before she finished speaking, another melon seed kernel flew out from Hua Yuxi's fingertips and flew into her mouth without missing a beat. She wanted to spit it out, but after Hua Yuxi's reminder, she was afraid.

It seemed rude and indecent in front of Lan Qiao, so she had no choice but to eat it, and then yelled: "You have drool all over it, oh, it's disgusting."

When Lan Qiao heard this, his face became hot again. Wang Xiaowan and Chen Yuheng walked into the box. The former asked Hua Yuxi how satisfied she was with the renovation of the teahouse, while the latter smiled and said: "Mr. Gu is already here, okay.
Chapter completed!
