Xiandao Linglong

"Meng...Meng Yi..."

A call came from Ye Qi's mouth, and he woke up from his dream. His eyes were filled with depth and panic, and he was gasping for breath, as if he had survived a disaster!

"Mr. Ye! You held my hand but called out other girls' names. Do you think I should be angry?" Jing Shu joked.

Ye Qi, who only reacted after hearing what he had said, quickly let go of her hand and said with a somewhat evasive look, "Excuse me! Miss, may I ask where the fragrance on your body comes from?"

Jing Shu raised her arm, and her sleeves fell down, revealing a section of her smooth, white arm. She put it to her nose and sniffed it, saying, "Young Master Ye is a little different from ordinary people. He even wants to inquire about a girl's private affairs. Aren't you afraid that I will report you to the police and have you arrested?"

"I had no intention of offending Miss Jingshu. It's just that the scent on her body was somewhat similar to that of my long-lost sister, so I offended her in a moment of haste!"

"Pfft!"

Jingshu looked at Ye Qi who was sitting beside her with a serious expression. Her face, which had been pretending to be serious, blossomed like a flower with a laugh.

I have seen all kinds of men over the years, but this is the first time I have seen such a silly and cute man.

But looking at Ye Qi's head, which was lowered and embarrassed to raise, he said after a moment's silence: "It's nothing more than the fragrance of peach blossoms. It seems that Mr. Ye's confidante also has good taste!"

"Uh! It's just my sister!"

Ye Qi scratched his head shyly. Who could have imagined that he, who was usually shameless, would actually feel embarrassed sometimes?

"Oh right! Why isn't that crazy bitch Luo Yanxin here?"

"She's gone. You two are not of the same kind, so naturally you won't go the same way!"

Ye Qi thought for a moment, recalling everything that had happened in the past few days in his mind, and always felt that something was not right.

But everything happened so naturally that I finally patted my head and stopped thinking about it.

"What kind of existence is a familiar stranger?" Ye Qi suddenly asked with a serious expression.

Jing Shu casually answered this nonsensical question, "A familiar stranger? They must be deliberately pretending to be strangers to approach you and deceive you. Otherwise, how could you feel familiar with a stranger? Do you need someone to tell you such a simple question?"

"Yeah! I get it!"

"What do you understand?"

Ye Qi changed his usual resistance and looked at Jing Shu with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. He said, "Then please come with me, Miss Jing Shu. I will let you go after you resolve your doubts!"

"Do I have the right to refuse?"

"no!"

"What if I insist on not obeying?"

Ye Qi looked at the girl in front of him with a determined look, showing no sign of compromise. He slowly raised the Yixi Sword in his hand and threatened: "You are a demon!"

"As expected, none of us humans are good. If I hadn't fought that fox to save you, how could you have put a sword on my neck?"

"So, what is Miss Jingshu's choice?"

"Giving people the right to answer, but not letting them choose, is it necessary to hypocritically ask again?"

With that, Jingshu walked out of the house. Seeing how submissive she was, Ye Qi was full of doubts. This was completely different from what he had imagined. Didn't the storybooks always describe such situations, where the man made a domineering invitation and the woman refused to obey?

"Hey! Master Ye! Are you leaving or not?"

Ye Qi, who was pulled back to reality by the voice, reacted and trotted a few steps to catch up. He said to the girl in front of him who had been coerced and lured into the pirate ship with some embarrassment: "Miss Jingshu, don't call me Master Ye all the time. Just call me Ye Qi!"

"Ye Qi!"

Seeing Jingshu looking at him with affectionate eyes, Ye Qi was drawn to her gentle gaze and looked over unconsciously, calling out, "Jingshu!"

"Eh! So corny! With your level of determination, you'd easily take down any little devil you met on the street!"

Seeing the disgusted expression on her face, Ye Qi finally realized that he had been fooled. He suddenly recalled what the fox demon said: Jingshu is smarter than ten foxes combined.

It turns out that what I thought from the beginning to the end was just what she wanted me to see. Fortunately, she is not a bad person, otherwise I would have died hundreds of times!

Ye Qi took a few big strides and caught up with Jingshu, who was walking leisurely and lightly, and seemed to start to inquire about Jingshu's life experience intentionally or unintentionally.

"Jingshu, where are you from?"

"Jingshu, what do you like to do on weekdays?"

"Jingshu, what kind of flowers do you like?"

"Jingshu, do you like sweet or salty food?"

…………

Ye Qi's voice never stopped along the way, like a bee that smells the fragrance of flowers and flies over to collect nectar, buzzing and asking questions non-stop.

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Master Ye! Aren't you tired? The sun is about to set, how come you're still so energetic? You say you're not tired, but I'm tired of hearing it! We just met by chance, so why are you asking so many questions about me? I'm telling you clearly, I'm not your lost lover, and I didn't have to come with you. You forced me to come by putting a sword to my neck!"

A burst of angry scolding left Ye Qi speechless. Who would have thought that the girl who looked very dignified and virtuous on weekdays could actually say so many angry words in one breath.

Ye Qi, who was following behind, was so obedient that he didn't dare to say a word. He even didn't dare to breathe hard, for fear that the sound of his breathing would affect the mood of the little ancestor in front of him.

Although he himself didn't know since when he became so humble in front of her, you have to know that she is a demon.

Although the master said, "There is good in demons and evil in humans!", demons are still demons. In this world, only demons bully humans. I have never seen anyone actively bully demons!

"Hey! There's an inn up ahead. I'm tired and can't walk anymore!"

"Okay, let's rest here for a night before continuing on our journey!"

Jingshu rolled her eyes at Ye Qi, turned around and walked into the inn. Looking at the delicacies on the tables of the surrounding guests, her stomach suddenly growled.

Then he ran to the counter in small steps and said, "Boss! Bring out all the good wine and food! And a soft bed room! And a bathroom! Arrange..."

"Sorry, boss, we don't want anything she just mentioned. We just want two rooms!"

Jing Shu, who was dragged aside, looked angrily at the stingy Ye Qi, and looked at the delicious food and wine on other people's tables with reluctance. The corners of her mouth were almost drooling like a small river. In the end, she was forcibly dragged into the room by Ye Qi!

"Honestly! It's a long journey! We don't have that much money!"

"Humph!"

Jingshu snorted angrily and turned her face away, ignoring him until he walked out of the room and closed the door. Her frown instantly relaxed, and her fair and tender cheeks smiled like a white lotus!

"Money? When have I ever spent money on eating and drinking?"
