reluctantly

It is difficult to describe the relationship between the pair.

If you want to talk about alienation, Hu Mingzhi always leans up to talk to Xiao Yuan; if you want to talk about intimacy, Xiao Yuan always keeps silent, just staring at his sword, all kinds of swords, Xiao Er's eyes They will be blinded by those precious swords.

They maintain a close relationship, separated by a thin layer of veil; for some reason, Xiao Er always thinks of a noble son and his follower last year, and he doesn't know what is going on now-the relationship between them is inexplicable The place looks like that, really, Xiaoer Tianqing mentioned to Dabai like this, if he talked to the shopkeeper, he might have a plan for him, and said with a smile what's so strange!

"Really? But, brother Tianqing, you pay too much attention to these things, you should concentrate on thinking about how that weird swordsmith is going to torture me, a chef~~"

Dabai, I don’t know his name for a long time, but Jiang Buhuo called him Dabai, and Xiao Er followed suit; currently he is the only chef in the inn, responsible for the meals for the only two guests and the three meals for the inn staff. He is the busiest person in the inn, although there are only five people in the entire inn.

"Brother Dabai, don't be angry, cheer up!"

Before the little second words finished, I heard an impolite male voice - who else is there besides Xiao Yuan?Hu Mingzhi was very polite to outsiders.

"Fat man! Thin man! Let me have a plate of mapo tofu, stir-fried green beans and..."

He ordered a bunch of things, if Xiao Er hadn't seen this bearded man finish everything with his own eyes, he would have thought it was a waste of money.

"Okay!"

"Hurry up! If you don't want me to threaten you to cook, I want the first dish now."

Are all Jianghu people so terrible?Xiaoer Tianqing was so frightened by Xiao Yuan's sweep that he almost couldn't stand up, but it was Dabai who was behind him who helped him.

"It just so happens that the white chicken is ready, let's serve it up first, Tianqing."

Holding the fragrant white chopped chicken, he followed the silent and sneering man to the main hall of the inn.

"Shopkeeper Jiang, the food here is not bad! But the chicken still needs to be fatter, and there is no oil in it, but I'm sorry for my stomach."

Seeing that Xiao Yuan dared to hate his shopkeeper, Xiao Er almost threw herself into the ground.

However, Jiang Buhuo wasn't easy to provoke, he was making calculations, and he didn't know what he was busy with all day; at this time, he looked up and glanced at this side, and nodded with a smile.

"The chicken is fat, so Master Xiao should also be fat. Eat well, and your money can still be here for ten days."

"...Shopkeeper Jiang is right! Mr. Xiao is under the enemy's back and he is besieged on all sides. It's better to eat early and go on the road happily!"

He laughed out loud, and suddenly, he looked towards the stairs, where Hu Mingzhi was standing there intact.

What a gentleman is like jade, with a chivalrous demeanor.

He smiled slightly, noticed the sight, and nodded at him.

Why nod?Xiao Yuan didn't understand the nature of these young masters, he just focused on the meal and served it leisurely.

He has always been like this.

Hu Mingzhi thought.

He is also always worried. If he can really let go, it may be the happiness of the two of them.

Jiang Buhuo once asked him about him one morning, and said, "Brother Hu, Xiao Yuan is just a rock, a rock that can't be warmed, why do you do that?"

How did he answer?I forgot, maybe that's what I said——

"I understand, but when that thought appeared in my mind, it was inevitable."

It is also the intentional or unintentional encounter between them, which is inevitable.
