The woman's eyes seemed to be filled with a hint of charm. She lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, slowly raising the corners of her mouth in the direction of Lou Jingyu.

At the end, she lowered her head slightly, with a hint of reserve yet also boldness.

Shadow Eleven always felt that this kind of look was familiar.

After thinking for a while, I remembered that the men and women who were sent to the Chiyang Sect by the Ji family before also looked at their master with such eyes.

The same goes for Qiao Shuhe, but she hid it a little deeper.

Suddenly, a familiar feeling of bitterness came over me.

The master is indeed very charming.

As he thought so, he was no longer as anxious as before.

Following the beat of the music, the dancer's long sleeves waved again.

Ying Shiyi could even smell the fragrance on the sleeves and frowned.

He stood up and blocked the sleeve with his sword, preventing it from moving forward.

"Back off!" he said.

His tone was somewhat harsh and tolerant of argument, and his eyes were cold.

The master has always disliked outsiders getting close to him. Besides, what if this dancer has some hidden weapon on her body and intends to murder her...

He is someone who must not be tolerated and must be guarded against.

The dancers came from the streets and were not official dancers. They had been in the world for a long time and had a lot of thoughts in their minds.

This method is often used at such banquets to make the people at the main seat fall in love with her and spend huge amounts of money on her, so that she can maintain her position as the top host all the way.

Now that I'm at the banquet, I heard from the person who arranged it that the person coming is an important person, so I naturally won't miss such a good opportunity.

But she didn't expect that the leader on the main seat was so cold. He didn't even look at her. Instead, he kept picking up food and feeding the boy next to him.

She was very surprised and also very confused.

What is the relationship between these two?

The person who arranged them never mentioned this.

But the opportunity was rare, and she couldn't think too much about it. She could only move forward. Unexpectedly, she was blocked by the young man's sword.

The capital was a place of wealth and luxury. She had never seen such knives and sabers before. She was so frightened that she twisted her ankle during her dance and fell to her knees with a thump.

I felt extremely ashamed and angry, and also a little frightened.

"I know I'm wrong..." She kept shouting and apologizing.

The official who arranged the song and dance was also shocked and hurried out to apologize to Lou Jingyu.

"It is my fault that I did not make the arrangements properly. Please forgive me, Master."

Lou Jingyu ignored them and instead looked at Ying Shiyi beside him with a smile.

He pushed the young man back to sit next to him, placed his Chixiao sword on his legs, and patted his back to comfort him.

"Is our Eleven angry? Don't be angry. It's not worth it." He coaxed her gently.

The laughter in the room stopped abruptly, and everyone was silent, not daring to speak.

Lou Jingyu's soft voice made his words very clear, shocking everyone for a moment.

Everyone stared with eyes wide open, but dared not say a word.

Ying Shiyi realized that his reaction just now might have been a bit too much. Looking at the guests in the room, he pursed his lips and unconsciously pinched the corner of Lou Jingyu's sleeve.

This little action made Lou Jingyu feel weak inside.

The little rabbit was a little panicked and a little aggrieved.

If he were at home, Lou Jingyu would have held the person in his arms and coaxed her gently, and even given her a kiss.

"I'm not angry, master, I'm just afraid of her..." Ying Eleven explained.

Lou Jingyu naturally understood: "I know Eleven wants to protect me, it's okay."

Ying Shiyi lowered his head and felt a little guilty. In fact, he did want to protect his master, but he also didn't want to let that woman get too close to his master.

He was indeed jealous.

So she whispered, "Actually... I am... a little jealous."

Lou Jingyu didn't hear what he was saying at first, and only after he leaned closer did he finally hear it clearly. He immediately burst out laughing and held the man in his arms.

"Oh, it turns out that An An is angry and jealous. Isn't she jealous?" he said with a smile.

Ying Eleven lowered his eyes and didn't look at him, but was rubbing his sleeves.

Lou Jingyu held his hand and pinched his fingertips, whispering to him: "You have to say this in the future, okay? Don't keep it in your heart, you have to say it out loud so that I can comfort you. This is called real jealousy."

Ying Shiyi saw that he was still smiling gently, so he raised his head.

After a while, he smiled slightly and nodded.

After Lou Jingyu comforted the man, he gave him the shrimps he had just peeled and asked him to eat them. When he looked up, he saw the official's frightened expression.

"Master, are you still singing this?"

He stammered, feeling extremely terrified, and when he looked at the dancer his eyes were full of resentment.

Lou Jingyu waved his hand.

For him, music, singing and dancing are of no concern; he just wants Eleven to have fun.

I was peeling shrimps just now and didn't pay attention. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing.

"Don't you see that my lord doesn't want to listen? Let's all withdraw," he said.

The official first looked at Ying Shiyi in surprise, then said yes, and quickly took the singer and dancer away.

The banquet was then resumed and everyone started chatting again.

Duan Chunhui shook his head and said with Lian Jue, "The leader is really too doting, but our Eleventh has finally learned to be jealous. This is worthy of praise."

Lian Jue picked up a meatball for him and said with a smile: "You just like to watch the fun."

Duan Chunhui shook his head. He just liked to see Lou Jingyu being eaten alive by Eleven.

This childhood friend of his was used to being unruly, and now finally there was someone who could control him. He was naturally very happy, because he had to do a lot of dirty and tiring work under his authority before.

Now that they have arrived in Beijing, Lou Jingyu takes Shiyi out to play every day, while he himself has to study some kind of poison every day.

The comparison is so sad...

So he angrily took a bite of the meatball that Lian Jue had picked for him.

The rest of the banquet was much calmer. After a few more toasts, everyone chatted about all sorts of things, and the banquet went smoothly.

Just after the banquet, there was some unusual movement on the way back and we encountered an ambush.

It was late at night and there were few people on the streets, so the sound of swords clashing was so clear.

Before these assassins reached Lou Jingyu's carriage, they were intercepted by the shadow guards who were protecting him secretly.

But these killers were probably bribed with high prices. After being caught, they immediately committed suicide. Lian Jue couldn't stop them.

Duan Chunhui glanced at him and waved at him.

"You can't stop them. There's poison in their mouths. If you bite them a little, they'll be dead."

Lou Jingyu pulled aside the curtain and looked around, and saw the bodies of the killers lying all over the ground.

I couldn't help but sneer.

The informant who was waiting at Ji's house today reported this to him. This group of killers are from Ji's family.

"Master?" Ying Shiyi also stretched his head to look.

Lou Jingyu hugged him back by the waist.

"You'll have nightmares at night after watching this." Lou Jingyu teased him.

Ying Shiyi was indeed amused.

He is not a child, so how could he have nightmares after seeing these things? Besides, as a shadow guard, he has seen such scenes the most often.

Lou Jingyu stroked his back and said, "It's just a small matter. The Ji family sent them here to test me. Now that their reputation has been exposed, they must want to take advantage of my stay in Beijing. They think they have a better chance of winning, but they are overestimating their own capabilities."

"There will be a more thorough layout later. Ying Er and the others will give us new information. Don't worry too much. I will take care of it."

Ying Shiyi leaned her head on his shoulder and nodded.

"I will protect my master, too."

Lou Jingyu kissed him, "Okay, thank you for our eleventh."
