Chapter 20 Love

The snow gradually stopped, and the morning passed early, but it was much late, and even the sky after dawn was gray.

On the eve of dawn, the coldest moment of the day, Yu'er was shrunk into her robe, her face flushed with heat, and she seemed to have no intention of waking up at all.

Yan Qing looked ahead quietly. Not far away was Danhua Workshop, and he was not in a hurry to send Yu'er back.

She was waiting for her to wake up before she could wake up.

The morning in Baiyun City is also very quiet, and most people are still sleeping. Even when they wake up, they are still nestled in the quilt and don’t want to get up.

"Bun, hot meat bun..." A shout finally cut through the silent frozen city.

Most people are just the majority, and of course a small number of people have to get up early and go to bed late in order to make a living.

The one who sells buns is a porter. He can only carry a load to sell this snowy day, and he has to be more popular as he walks. He has not opened yet today.

Yan Qing appreciated the diligent people, so he greeted the vendor, "Hey, boss, I want to buy a few buns here."

When the vendor saw the business coming, he ran fast with a load. After a while, he stood beside Yan Qing with a smile: "Young Master, my bun is full of lean meat and skin is thin, so I can sell it for two cents each!"

Yan Qing took out a ingot of silver and threw it to the vendor: "I want three buns for one ingot of silver. I am the only one who buys this in Baiyun City!"

"Oh, I met the uncle today!" The vendor was so happy that he hurriedly packed three buns and handed them to Yan Qing: "Your son, your buns are not more than three or less."

Yan Qing took the bun and rode away. What is this called? This is called early birds eating insects!

The buns are still hot. Yan Qing’s purpose of buying buns is not to eat them. His hands are already frozen purple, so they are used to warm their hands.

"Um... it smells so good, it smells so good..."

Yu'er sniffed first, then swallowed, then rubbed her eyes, and finally she stretched... and woke up - "Gulugulu..." her stomach screamed, she was hungry.

"Here... Huh? Why is it dawn?" She stretched out her head out of her robe and looked at it, but it was too cold outside. She shivered and shrank her head into her robe.

"Are you awake?" Yan Qing peeled her head out of her robe, and then he handed the bun in front of Yu'er: "What? I slept comfortably last night?"

Yu'er glanced at the bun and looked back at Yan Qing. She twisted her face and said, "Am I dreaming?"

"How can you know if you are dreaming if you are so light?" Yan Qing pinched her face with her hand.

"Ah! It hurts so much!" She jumped so hard that she almost fell off her horse.

"It hurts right. Now that you wake up from your dream, you're home too." Yan Qing stuffed the buns into Yu'er's hand. He dismounted the horse first, and then led the horse to Danhua's workshop.

The previous pain and the cold wind in the morning finally pulled Yu'er back from her ignorance. She took a bite of the bun but didn't say anything, and everything became so quiet again.

"Okay, you're here." After a while, the horse stopped at the door of Danhua workshop, and now it was a Buddha to the west.

Yu'er got off the horse by herself. She handed all the robe and the remaining buns to Yan Qing. After that, she walked to the eaves in front of the door and sat down quietly. During this period, she had never seen Yan Qing at all.

Yan Qing was going to leave, and it was obvious that Yu'er didn't even want to talk to him about goodbye. But when he saw Yu'er not entering the door, he couldn't help but go forward and meddle in other people's business. He asked:

"It's so cold outside, don't you call the door?"

Yu'er shook her head and said, "No, the genius is just dawning now, and the people in the workshop must have not yet risen. They have been very busy in recent days. I don't want to disturb their rest."

"You are so careful."

...

Silence, silence again.

Yan Qing sighed, he was really bored. He turned around and wanted to take the horse away, but before he took a step, he turned around and asked again, "Are you used to living in this workshop?"

"I'm not used to it." she replied.

"Then how about staying in my palace? It's big and safe..." But it's much deserted than a workshop. This is what Yan Qing didn't say. His mind was very simple, just wanting to find someone to accompany him.

Yu'er finally was willing to look up at him, but her eyes were full of contempt and confusion.

Yan Qing's eyebrows: "Why do you look at me with this kind of eyes?"

Yu'er snorted softly: "Yan Qing, you have to understand that I am the one who wants to kill you. Don't think that I will give up the idea of ​​killing you after saving me. But now you let me live in your palace? Isn't this ridiculous?"

Yan Qing shook his head and said, "It's different from your living in the palace and you want to kill me. You can also kill me, anytime, anywhere! I promise not to let my guards stop you."

"I think you're crazy!" Yu'er gritted her teeth, "You played with me in the clapping just to fill your inner emptiness. Why should I be your toy?"

"You got the chance to kill me, I found fun, we all got what we wanted, wouldn't that be good?"

"I have seen many people who regard murder as fun, but you are the only one who regards being killed as fun. Yan Qing, you will have fun!"

"I--"

"Zhu!" The door of Danhua workshop was suddenly opened.

"Xiaolan?!"

"Young Master Lou!"

The person who came out was Lou Yan. He was wearing a black robe and holding an iron tree broom in his hand.

"When did Xiaolan come back? How do you do it and don't call the door in front of the eaves?" Lou Yan asked carefully. He took off his robe and gently put it on the rain.

"Aren't I afraid of disturbing Mr. Lou's rest?" Yu'er smiled warmly, and the warmth wrapped in her robe asked: "Where is Mr. Lou? You are so busy on weekdays, don't you sleep in during the winter months?"

Lou Yan raised the big broom in his hand and said, "Hey, the weather is really cold, so I scan the snow in front of the door. Today, several bosses are coming to the workshop to discuss business."

"Boss Lou is so diligent!"

"Where are, my workshop is full of workers, and the servants are reluctant to spend money to help. Just do what you can do..."

Yan Qing's face was already shiny, and in his eyes, the ambiguity between Lou Yan and Yu'er seemed to be provoking! He had never been so provoked by others!

"Hey, this young man is this?..." Lou Yan saw Xue Qing and greeted him with a smile.

"Yan--" Yan Qing was about to issue a name, but Yu'er interrupted him first: "He is Yan Qing's subordinate, and he specially sent me back!" Yu'er glared at Yan Qing, she didn't want Lou Yan to know Yan Qing's existence.

"Oh... that's also Lord Messenger-Oh, look at me, I'm busy chatting, Lord Messenger should drink a cup of hot tea inside."

Lou Yan's sincere invitation was endless ridicule in Yan Qing's eyes - "Tsk!" He disdained and waved his hand casually. The robe and buns in his hand were thrown into the snow. Then he turned over and ran away without looking back.

"this……"

"Don't worry about him," Yu'er grabbed the broom from Lou Yan's hand again, "Mr. Lou, I'll clean the snow for you, just treat it as a thank you for your intake."
