"Mr. Shen is extremely talented. I admire him."

Xie Ci's eyes stayed on Shen Chutang without blinking. The man was dressed in a green robe, with an upright posture, and the gathered cuffs perfectly outlined the bulging muscles of his arms. His face was well hidden, revealing only a pair of eyes that shone in the candlelight, but flashed with a light that saw through everything.

Shen Chutang stood steadily and confidently, and the aura he exuded was quite calm and powerful. Although the invisible sense of oppression was deliberately hidden, Xie Ci still keenly captured it.

Mu Yao immediately introduced: "Mr. Xie, this is my benefactor, Mr. Shen. If I hadn't met him, I wouldn't have escaped so quickly." Seeing that Shen Chutang had covered his face today, she thought that he might not want people to know his name, so she only said his last name.

"Mr. Shen is a righteous man. Yaoyao has mentioned you to me many times. Thank you for taking care of my sister-in-law during this period. May I know your name?"

Yaoyao? Shen Chutang raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes dark and unclear.

Mu Yao was also surprised by this sudden intimate address. It turned out that Xie Ci treated her as his sister-in-law.

Shen Chutang did not hesitate, and bowed slightly, saying: "Grandmaster, you are too kind. I am Shen Chutang, and I am honored to meet you, Grandmaster."

Then he turned to Mu Yao and said, "Compared to the medicine given by Noble Lady Mu to cure my stubborn illness, what I have done is not worth mentioning. Noble Lady Mu is my benefactor."

"How are you?" Mu Yao asked with concern. Shen Chutang "fell from the sky" when she was most helpless, like a beam of light that deeply reflected in her heart and was unforgettable.

"Much better. Miss Mu is indeed much better than the miracle doctor. Her medical skills are rare in this world. I am very lucky to meet you in this life." Shen Chutang only took one dose of the medicine, and he clearly felt that his body was warming up and his dantian was more open. And the "Shunfeng Pill", after he took a small pill, the cold poison did not recur yesterday. Just as Mu Yao said, his stubborn disease was under control. Thinking that he would not have to suffer and be restrained for this in the future, his eyes looking at Mu Yao became softer.

Mu Yao took his fair wrist and held it carefully. Her skin was indeed no longer as cold as before.

Seeing the two of them being so familiar and intimate, Xie Ci's eyes flashed with surprise. The beauty was lowering her beautiful eyes, with a slight smile on her lips, and two beautiful dimples were faintly visible on her cheeks. Such gentleness and active approach had never belonged to him before, which made him look at Shen Chutang with a sense of inquiry and a hint of hostility that was so fast that it was hard to catch.

"You recovered much faster than I thought. At this rate, you will be fully recovered in less than half a year. Two months will be enough." Mu Yao smiled, but she was shocked. Was it because her medicine was too good or Shen Chutang's physical fitness was too strong? How could he recover so quickly? Even if we look back to the 23rd century, with the high-tech medical technology of that time, it would not be possible to recover so quickly. She once again marveled at the wonders of this strange world.

"Ms. Mu, it seems that the favor I owe you is growing bigger and bigger. What should I do?" Shen Chutang said solemnly and humorously, staring at Mu Yao with a complicated look in his eyes, as if he was seriously confirming something.

Shen Chutang was quite surprised by Mu Yao's diagnosis. Every time the cold poison relapsed, he had to use more of his internal strength to suppress it. Now he has been alive for five years with his tenacious will. The poison in his body has already reached an unprecedented depth, making it increasingly difficult for him to deal with it. But since he met Mu Yao, it seems that all the problems have been solved, and all the troubles have disappeared. Could it be that she is the lucky star that Master "Mingjing" predicted for him?

Mu Yao smiled and shook her head, and replied seriously: "Mr. Shen, don't feel any burden. When I was in trouble, you lent me a hand, and I will repay you with a spring of gratitude. You don't owe me anything."

Shen Chutang's eyebrows moved slightly, he chuckled, leaned down and whispered softly in the beautiful woman's ear: "Even if Miss Mu hadn't met me that day, her life would not be in danger. But I met you and survived. Shen owes you a life."

His strands of black hair brushed against Mu Yao's chin, and the distance between them almost touching her face made her feel itchy instantly. The temperature beside her ears was like lava, passing through the gauze and spreading the itch all at once, and the lingering and magnetic voice sent it into her heart, as if countless ants were crawling over her, making her feel strange.

Seeing that Mu Yao did not reject the man's approach, Xie Ci could no longer maintain his composure. His eyes became completely silent without a trace of warmth.

There were several loud "bangs" and a red fire appeared in the distance.

The crowd suddenly became excited and rushed towards the stone railing.

"It's sparkling iron, the sparkling iron has begun!" a child shouted, staring with his big black eyes and pointing to the center of the lake with a look of surprise.

Under the night sky, tongues of fire splashed, reflected in the clear lake water, as if there was a similar world underwater.

The tiny figures of several flower-beaters were swinging hammers vigorously, clanging out sparks that were dazzling and spread across the sky, then turned into thousands of star points and fell into the lake.

"Yaoyao, let's go watch the iron flower making. Mr. Shen, we'll see each other again if we're lucky." Xie Ci said politely. After that, he stretched out his right hand and handed it to Mu Yao.

Mu Yao was slightly stunned, but she still gently placed her hand on it. Before it touched the palm, it was firmly grasped by the big hand. When she raised her foot, she found that her other hand was firmly held by Shen Chutang. The temperature difference between warm and cold made Mu Yao freeze on the spot as if she was electrocuted.

"What do you mean, Mr. Shen?" Xie Ci's eyes gradually became dangerous, and the hostility in his body was radiated without reservation.

"With so many people going there by boat, by the time you get there, it will probably be over."

Xie Ci was startled for a moment, then turned to face the lake, only to see crowds of people on the shore, all scrambling to get on the boat for fear of missing the time. Some were even squeezed out on the spot and were struggling to climb ashore.

Mu Yao was stunned by the grand scene before her, and felt regretful, but was hooked into a generous harbor by a powerful force.

"Ms. Mu, do you want to see the iron flower making?" Shen Chutang asked seriously.

Mu Yao was held in his arms, her body stiffened unconsciously, and she nodded unconsciously.

Xie Ci was shocked. He didn't expect the other party to be so bold and presumptuous in front of him. He tried to take the person back, but he only grabbed one hand of nothingness. When he looked up again, the two of them had already floated up, tapped the lake surface a few times, and flew towards the direction of the sparks.

Looking at the two figures going away, Xie Ci's face fell into an unprecedented solemnity. At a distance of more than ten miles, this young man could take Mu Yao with him by lightly stepping on the water twice and leaping away. Such speed and such skills are unprecedented in my life. Who is he?

"My Lord Imperial Master is well. What a coincidence that Jialuo can meet the Imperial Master here!" Si Jialuo was waiting in the distance, and finally gave her a chance to be alone.

Xie Ci came back to his senses and saw Si Jialuo dressed in gorgeous clothes, looking at him with affectionate eyes. He immediately stepped back half a foot to keep some distance between them.

"Ms. Si, nice to meet you." Xie Ci greeted her expressionlessly, jumped up, stepped onto the boat and headed towards the sparks.

"Thank you!"

Si Jialuo shouted in disbelief at his back, and was so angry that he ignored all etiquette and shouted his name loudly.

The sound cut through the sky and attracted the attention of the surroundings. When the men saw that it was Miss Si, they all climbed back onto the platform and surrounded Si Jialuo, making it difficult for her to escape for a while. She continued to respond to the men's greetings until the iron flower show was over.
