Lan Xichen's voice interrupted their conversation: "Did you buy all these candied hawthorns?"

Speaking of this, Li Shuang looked at the candied hawthorns and nodded: "Yes, I've tried them, they taste great, so I bought them all. Do you want to try some?"

He lowered his voice and said with a smile, "I don't have time now, but I'll definitely ask you to come and try it later."

After that, only the two of them knew what it meant.

Li Shuang knew that Cloud Recesses had many rules, so it was already very kind of Lan Xichen to make an exception and hide her existence.

Li Shuang nodded: "No problem."

Wei Wuxian nudged Lan Wangji's arm: "Do you know who this girl is? She seems to know your brother quite well?"

Lan Wangji ignored him, though he was also surprised that his brother had met a strange girl and was treating her differently.

Seeing that he didn't react, Wei Wuxian got a little bored and muttered under his breath, "What a stickler."

The other people at the table were just eating and didn't say much.

Lan Xichen and Li Shuang also stopped chatting and ate their meal in silence.

"By the way, where are all of you going?"

Lan Xichen casually said, "Let's go to Biling Lake."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuang's eyes lit up: "Is this the Biling Lake they were just talking about, the one where the water devours people?"

"Yes." Lan Xichen nodded.

"Can I come with you? I'm really curious!" Her eyes were full of anticipation.

Lan Xichen paused, looking at the expectation in her eyes, and couldn't bear to refuse: "Okay, but be careful."

Li Shuang replied, "No problem, my cultivation level is quite good!"

“Okay, let’s go!” he said with a smile.

After the meal, everyone took a boat to Biling Lake, where Lishuang had already found a place to put away the candied hawthorns.

She was assigned to a boat with Lan Xichen, and she stood behind him, looking at the lake shrouded in thick fog.

"Host, didn't you already know the plot? Why are you joining in the fun!"

"The plot is just the plot, how can it compare to the actual scene? I also have a bit of an adventurous spirit."

Xiao Qi: "Okay, host, this world seems a bit more lively."

Li Shuang said calmly, "It was influenced by the original owner's temperament."

"I'm the host, how come I'm so much cuter!" Xiao Qi whispered.

"You think I wasn't cute before?" Pear Frost's sinister voice rang in its ear.

Xiao Qi got goosebumps and quickly said, "No, no, you're the cutest, host!"

"Haha, just kidding!"

Xiao Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Her host was really naughty, always enjoying teasing people.

Watching the two male protagonists bickering, Li Shuang realized that the water spirit had arrived.

"Xiao Qi, this water monster looks just like seaweed!"

"Haha, host, you're right. It can be understood as mutated seaweed."

More and more seaweed spirits appeared, and everyone flew into the air on their swords.

Lan Xichen looked at her and said, "Hurry up and get on, the boat is sinking!"

Li Shuang nodded, took out her sword, and also entered mid-air.

After watching Lan Xichen play the flute to deal with Shui Xingyuan, everyone headed back.

Once on the street, Li Shuang parted ways with them and returned to Cloud Recesses ahead of them.

At night, Lan Xichen returned to the courtyard and glanced at the pear tree.

Once inside the hall and seated at the table, I saw the string of candied hawthorns stuck in the mouth of the small bottle, and a smile involuntarily crept onto my lips.

"This girl still remembers to give me candied hawthorns!" Lan Xichen's eyes were full of smiles.

He took it, looking at the candied hawthorn skewer; the glistening sugar icing paired with the red hawthorn made him want to try it.

He wouldn't normally eat this kind of thing, but today he suddenly thought it tasted pretty good.

I opened my mouth, took a bite, and the taste was sweet and sour, very appetizing.

Before he knew it, he had finished the whole string of candied hawthorns.

Looking at the empty stick in his hand, he paused for a moment, then smiled.

In the following days, Li Shuang did not appear. She was busy cultivating. After resting for one day, she continued to cultivate. She was very diligent.

Stopping means going into the space to eat the meal Yunshang made for herself.

Occasionally, I would stretch my muscles and practice my swordsmanship, sparring with Yunshang.

That night, there was thunder and lightning outside, and it started to rain.

Lan Xichen was meditating at the table when the arrival of an uninvited guest broke the quiet atmosphere in the room.

"Young Master Wen, since you're here, please come in!"

A piercing bird cry echoed through the sky. Li Shuang opened her eyes and looked outside to see who was disturbing her cultivation.

Wen Chao pushed open the door and entered: "Sect Leader Lan, you have excellent hearing!"

"Host, you're an annoying guy!"

Li Shuang watched as he rubbed the mud off his shoes onto the carpet in Lan Xichen's room.

"They are really annoying, rude, and have a face that looks like they deserve to be punched."

Xiao Qi nodded: "That's right!"

Wen Chao: "I heard from Wen Qing and the others that the back mountain of the Lan Clan is heavily guarded. Is there some treasure hidden there?"

"The back mountain is merely the burial ground of my Lan clan ancestors," Lan Xichen said calmly.

"In that case, I will pay my respects to the Lan clan elders." Wen Chao began to push his luck.

Suppressing his displeasure, Lan Xichen maintained his composure and said, "Young Master Wen, please return."

"Lan Xichen, don't think that just because you have high spiritual power, we can't do anything to you!"

Lan Xichen smiled and ignored him.

"I may not be able to do anything to you right now, but don't forget that Lan Wangji came down the mountain alone today!"

Hearing this, Lan Xichen was indeed a little unsettled, worried that something might happen to Wangji.

Wen Chao came out with a smug smile, saw the conspicuous pear tree in the yard, walked over and kicked it, mud smeared on the tree.

Xiao Qi said angrily, "He not only provoked and threatened Lan Xichen, but he also dared to kick you. Host, teach him a lesson."

Li Shuang nodded, "I'll poison him a little so he won't get cocky. First, I'll cast a cleansing spell on the tree."

Then, he cast a spell, and a fragrance of pear blossoms silently entered Wen Chao's head.

The original owner was a tree from the Upper God Realm, so no one in the Lower God Realm would recognize it.

From now on, whenever this guy does something bad, he'll get a splitting headache, and no one will be able to figure out why, which will torment him to death.

They didn't poison him to avoid causing trouble for the Lan clan. If he dies here, they will definitely be held responsible.

Lan Xichen saw Wen Chao's behavior, got up and came out, and Li Shuang also appeared outside.

The rain seemed to encounter a barrier around her, turning away and not falling on her.

"Li Shuang, are you alright?"

She shook her head: "That person was really annoying!"

Lan Xichen smiled and comforted him, "It is indeed unpleasant. Would you like to come in, sit down, and have a cup of tea to change your mood?"

Li Shuang teleported to the eaves, walked inside, and turned to him, saying, "If we're having tea tonight, will you be able to sleep?"

"It's alright, I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight anyway." Lan Xichen followed her footsteps and walked inside.

The two sat facing each other. Lan Xichen picked up the teapot, about to pour her a cup of tea.
