In an instant, Lin Daiyu's cheeks turned red from her face to her snow-white neck.

He quickly covered his face and eyes with his hands.

Is this Qingfeng Li?

How could there be such a good-looking... bandit in this world?

With a groan, she fell directly onto the quilt beside her...

……

Qingfeng Village, in the exquisite room of the captive.

Lin Ruhai held his forehead and struggled to get up from the bed.

But he had a splitting headache and gasped.

"Hiss~ How much did I drink last night?"

At this moment, a surprised voice came from the side.

"Master, you're awake!"

Lin Ruhai quickly turned his head and saw his loyal servant Lin Sanyou standing beside the bed.

Lin Ruhai was shocked at first.

"Uncle Lin, why are you..."

He stopped talking midway.

He raised his hand and stroked his forehead, feeling quite lost.

"Oh! It seems I really drank too much last night. The strong liquor made me drunk."

Thinking about what happened last night, I couldn't help but wonder,

What kind of wine was that last night? It's so strong.

Uncle Lin hurried forward to support Lin Ruhai, helped him to stand up, and brought him a basin of water for him to wash his face.

Facing Lin Ruhai's gaze, Uncle Lin said with some shame,

"I'm sorry, Master. Qingfeng Village only gave us a basin of water this morning, and they said it was specially provided for our captives in the exquisite room. The other captives didn't get any water."

"How about I go and have a good talk with him, and ask for some green salt for you to rinse your mouth?"

Lin Ruhai was speechless. Last night, Li Qingfeng was still treating him like a brother. Now it was just like this?

But he pretended to be indifferent and waved his hand.

"Never mind. After all, we are guests here and living under someone else's roof. We should just avoid any trouble."

Then he reached into the basin to wash his hands, then wiped his face with the water.

I took the towel handed to me by Uncle Lin, wiped my face, looked at Uncle Lin and asked,

"Uncle Lin, what did the people from Qingfeng Village say today?"

Uncle Lin looked at Lin Ruhai with a strange expression, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Under Lin Ruhai's gaze, he lowered his head with some uneasiness and worry.

Lin Ruhai frowned and said,

"What's going on? Why that expression?"

Uncle Lin looked at Lin Ruhai hesitantly.

"Master, I told you to be patient."

Lin Ruhai frowned, and a sense of unease was already brewing in his heart.

But looking at Uncle Lin's expression, he nodded.

"Just tell me what's going on. If you don't, I'll be really angry."

Uncle Lin trembled all over and said quickly,

"Master, this morning when I was fetching water, I saw that Qingfeng Village was tidying up everywhere, decorated with red and colorful decorations, as if something happy was about to happen."

Lin Ruhai raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and hurried to the window, pushed it open and took a look.

Sure enough, I saw that the originally empty street outside was now decorated with big red lanterns.

There was also red silk tied on the pillars.

Even the guards on both sides of the street had festive red flowers tied to their swords.

It adds a lot of festive atmosphere to the solemn atmosphere.

Lin Ruhai turned around and looked at Lin Bo in confusion.

"Do you know the reason?"

Uncle Lin was a little afraid to look at Lin Ruhai, but still under Lin Ruhai's gaze, he trembled and said,

"Master, I heard from the strong men in Qingfeng Village that it is true, it is true..."

Lin Ruhai stamped his feet anxiously.

"What did you say? Tell me now!"

Uncle Lin lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Lin Ruhai.

Finally, he closed his eyes and said sadly with a trembling voice,

"They say that you, Master, had a very pleasant conversation with the leader of Qingfeng Village last night. They're planning to make a marriage contract and betroth my daughter to the local mountain king as his wife!"

"Master, may I ask, have you really promised the young lady to Qingfeng Village?"

Lin Ruhai suddenly became furious.

"I am a high-ranking official of the imperial court. I am an official and he is a thief!"

"How could I possibly..."

Suddenly, Lin Ruhai suddenly thought of something and his expression changed drastically.

He hurriedly and excitedly took a step forward and grabbed Lin Bo's arm tightly.
