Linluo sunset

Chapter 24 Misunderstandings

In a secluded house on the outskirts of the city, Lin Haofeng was taking a dagger and cutting peaches into small pieces one by one.

"Come on, eat another one." Lin Haofeng watched Yeluqing swallow the peach with his mouth open, and smiled with satisfaction.From being silent when I first moved here to now being able to chat with myself from time to time, this is already a great improvement.

"Yesterday...thank you." Yeluqing thanked in a low voice. Last night, it was raining pouringly, and the cold air penetrated into his limbs and bones along the ground veins. The pain seemed to fly away from his body. It was Lin Haofeng who kept hugging himself and said it was okay. He couldn't remember when he fell asleep in a daze at the end. He only knew that before he fell asleep, he was still looking at him with pity in his eyes.

"There is nothing to thank." Lin Haofeng smiled, and reached out to wipe off a little peach juice from his mouth, but his hand stayed on the corner of his lips, and he was reluctant to leave. Probably because he was taken care of these days, Yeluqing's lips were no longer as beautiful as before. It was so white and scary before, but now it has a pink color, and it looks even more seductive in water color, so Lin Haofeng's mind became hot, and he couldn't help but slowly approached.

A carriage stopped outside the courtyard, and the sound interrupted the two of them. Yeluqing turned around in a panic, Lin Haofeng frowned slightly, but when he looked up, he saw Leng Wei walking in with Leng Xizhao in his arms.

"Master?" Lin Haofeng was overjoyed and then surprised: "What happened to Xizhao?"

"Let's talk about it later, first find a clean room for Xizhao to rest." Leng Wei didn't care about other things: "Order to go down and make more blood-enriching things."

Lin Haofeng quickly agreed, but luckily the house is big enough, more than enough for one person.

Seeing that Leng Xizhao's whole body was cool, Leng Wei raised his hand to relieve some of his internal energy, trying to make him feel less uncomfortable. Taking advantage of Leng Wei's healing for Leng Xizhao, Xu Siting roughly talked about what happened today.

"What?" Lin Haofeng stared: "It's too much? Then Xi Tenglin is nothing, but Xi Zhao is still infatuated with him!"

Xu Siting chased after him but couldn't cover Lin Haofeng's mouth in time, and secretly groaned in his heart.

"What did you say?" Leng Wei turned her head angrily when she heard the words: "Xizhao has taken a fancy to that bastard?"

"Master, calm down..." Xu Siting hugged Leng Wei and did not let go: "Don't be impulsive, he is the king of Xichuan!"

"Bastard!" Leng Wei rushed out: "He should have been killed just now!"

Leng Xizhao on the bed was disturbed, she turned over in a daze, but accidentally pressed the wound on her arm, she couldn't help frowning and humming.

"Xizhao." Leng Wei rushed over to look at Leng Xizhao: "What's uncomfortable?"

Leng Xizhao opened her eyes and blinked, and after seeing Leng Wei clearly in front of her, she smiled weakly: "Daddy, I miss you so much."

"Then go back to Jiangnan with me." Leng Wei covered him with a quilt: "We will leave when you feel better, and ask Si Ting to tell the emperor that you don't go back again."

"But I also miss the emperor, and I also miss Hao Yang." Leng Xizhao felt aggrieved, her cheeks bulging.

Leng Wei sighed, since she was a child, she could only act like a baby with herself in this petite appearance, but she still had no choice but to try all kinds of things: "Then first heal your injuries here, and then I will send you back to the palace."

"Yeah." Leng Xizhao nodded happily: "Daddy, I'm hungry..."

"I'll go get my servants to cook right away!" Lin Haofeng ran out tactfully. Everyone knew that Leng Wei was famous for loving Leng Xizhao. It's better now that he's grown up. When he was a child, anyone who touched Leng Xizhao a lot Being stared at for a long time, I have never seen such a protective son.

Only Xu Siting stood aside and wondered why the young master didn't seem to care about Xi Tenglin at all, and his behavior was normal and scary.

"Daddy." Leng Xizhao leaned on Leng Wei's chest and said, "My hometown in Jiangnan should be very beautiful now, I haven't been back for many years."

"It's very beautiful. I'll keep the fish pond you used to fish when you were young. When you get home, Dad will continue to fish with you." Leng Wei held Leng Xizhao in his arms, wondering why her precious son didn't grow up or gain weight. , has always been small and tender, no matter how you look at it, it is attractive.

"Xizhao." Seeing that Leng Xizhao was smiling happily, Leng Wei said, "That Xi Teng hurt you, how do you think Dad will help you vent your anger?"

The smile on Leng Xizhao's face froze, and then returned to normal. She curled up in Leng Wei's arms and bowed her head, saying lazily, "It's okay, he didn't mean to."

"But he almost killed you to save that singer!" Leng Wei gritted his teeth when he thought of that scene.

"Probably he really... likes that Miss Su very much." Leng Xizhao forced a smile: "It's okay, don't blame him."

Leng Wei looked at his reddish eyes and frowned secretly: "...OK, you can do whatever you want."

Leng Xizhao buried her face in Leng Wei's arms, thinking of Xi Tenglin's kiss that night, her heart ached as if she had been lingering.

Feeling Leng Xizhao in his arms resisting crying, Leng Wei sighed and hugged his trembling body tightly, but his eyes became darker and colder.

After eating and drinking the medicine, Leng Xizhao fell into a deep sleep again, and Leng Wei dragged Xu Siting to the outside of the house, with an ugly and frightening expression.

"What's wrong, master?" Xu Siting was taken aback.

"Xizhao and that Xi Tenglin, what's going on?" Leng Wei looked directly at Xu Siting: "If you dare to hide it from me, I'll kill Xi Tenglin right now!"

Xu Siting felt guilty from his aggressive eyes, anyway, he couldn't hide the matter now, so he sighed and said: "Young master likes him, this time he came to Xichuan, it was also at the request of young master."

"I want to see him." There was no discussion in Leng Wei's voice: "You take care of Xizhao here, don't tell him that I went to the palace." Thinking of the dark red ambiguous mark on Leng Xizhao's neck, Leng Wei fisted Hold tightly together.

Xu Siting knew that he couldn't stop him, so he was also angry with Xi Tenglin, so he simply nodded: "After all, he is the king of Xichuan, Master, just be merciful."

In the Xichuan Palace, Xi Tenglin was sitting in the yard drinking, feeling very bored. Before the servants came to report that Leng Wei had brought Leng Xizhao out of the house, Gong Da said he would explain it tomorrow. Light and easy, there are still several hours before tomorrow morning, how are we going to survive tonight?

"Your Majesty." Su Shui came into the yard cheerfully: "Why are you drinking alone here?"

Xi Tenglin glanced at her, and continued to drink expressionlessly.

"My lord..." Su Shui smiled tenderly, "Thank you lord for saving my life today."

It's good not to mention it, but when she mentioned it, Xi Tenglin was furious. If it wasn't for saving this woman, how could he accidentally hurt Leng Xizhao.

Su Shui bit her lip. Seeing that Xi Tenglin's face was still dark and cold, she mustered up the courage to hug him: "Why is Your Majesty so indifferent to Ah Shui..." As he spoke, his voice was choked with sobs.

"Get out." Xi Tenglin said indifferently: "Don't bother me."

"Ah Shui don't leave." Su Shui slid one hand into Xi Tenglin's lapel. The man in front of him is his only backer for the rest of his life. No matter what, he can't lose. If he loses, he really has nothing.

Xi Tenglin frowned, and was about to stretch out his hand to push Su Shui away, but felt a dark shadow flash in front of him, and when he looked up, he saw Leng Wei standing in front of him with a face full of anger.

"There are assassins!" Su Shui was frightened during the day, and instinctively shouted.

"Shut up!" Xi Tenglin gave her a hard look: "Get out!"

With tears in her eyes, Su Shui turned her head and rushed out of the yard.

"Lengqian---" Before the word "generation" came out, Xi Tenglin felt a stabbing pain in his chest, and he couldn't help taking a few steps back, leaning against the wall and gasping for breath.

"Useless things." Leng Wei withdrew his hand: "Not even one-tenth of Si Ting's internal strength."

"Senior Leng." Xi Tenglin covered his heart and forced himself to adjust his breath, explaining: "I didn't mean to hurt Xiao Xi today."

"But you deliberately lied to him." Leng Wei looked at Xi Tenglin with cold eyes: "If you don't like him, you can reject him, why lie to him so dizzy for you, but hurt him so much in the end."

"I really like him." Xi Tenglin hurriedly explained.

"Then what happened just now?" Leng Wei glanced at the direction Su Shui left: "If I'm not mistaken, you hurt Xizhao because of her during the day, right?"

"Senior Leng, please listen to my explanation—" Before he could finish speaking, Leng Wei's gleaming left hand was already on Xi Tenglin's right arm: "If I didn't see the entanglement between you and that woman just now, I might I'll still listen to your explanation, but now—" Leng Wei's complexion darkened, and with a slight exertion of his left hand, Xi Tenglin felt that half of his body suddenly became extremely cold.

"If you dare to approach my son again, I will make you unable to move for the rest of your life." Leng Wei twisted her wrist, looked at the pained Xi Tenglin, and sneered: "This is unbearable? I only used [-]% of my strength , the dart you hit at Xizhao today has a bone-piercing cold poison, and the pain is ten times that of yours now."

"Senior Leng, you misunderstood." Xi Teng's eyes stared at the pain, and his words were a little awkward, but he still wanted to explain clearly.

Thinking that Leng Xizhao had to heal his wounds at night, Leng Wei didn't want to entangle with him any more, so she dodged around and disappeared into the night.

Xi Teng smiled miserably, and felt that half of his body was being pricked by a cold needle. Xiao Xi suffered ten times as much as her own, so it must have hurt so much.

Leng Wei hurried back to Lin Haofeng's house, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Zhou Mu stretching his neck and looking left and right.

"Master, you are back!" Upon seeing Leng Wei, Zhou Mu hurried up to meet him.

"Why are you here?" Leng Wei was puzzled.

"I'm Brother Lin's friend, and I'm staying here temporarily." Zhou Mu had already heard about what happened today, so he stretched out his hand to pinch Leng Wei's shoulder: "Master, don't worry, Xizhao hasn't woken up yet, I've already checked for him The pulse is gone, except for a little weakness, nothing serious."

Leng Wei looked Zhou Mu up and down, and was amused: "You have a good eye!"

"That's because Master taught well." Zhou Mu blinked and blinked with sincerity on his face.

"Yes, I'll accept you as an apprentice." Leng Wei nodded and stretched out his hand: "Kowtow is unnecessary, and the apprentice ceremony is indispensable."

Zhou Mule frantically took out the banknotes from his body: "I came in a hurry, I didn't bring much money, this is 5000 taels, please accept it."

"5000 taels?" Leng Wei's eyes widened. This kid made such a generous move, and he earned it this time.

Seeing Leng Wei's staring eyes, Zhou Mu thought it was too little, but then he thought about it. Leng Wei is the fifth-ranked master in Jianghu, how can a mere 5000 taels be enough, so he hurriedly said: "Master, calm down, 5000 taels of gold is not much, even if It’s a small amount of money to buy tea for the master, and I’ll make up for the official apprentice ceremony after I get home.”

5000 taels... gold? ? ! !

Leng Wei sighed, if he really bought tea, he might drink it until his next life.

"Master!" Xu Siting hurried over: "Xizhao just woke up, looking for you!"

Leng Wei nodded and ran in. Before leaving, she pointed to Zhou Mu and said to Xu Siting: "Here, this is your junior brother, please take care of him and pay the apprenticeship ceremony."

"Understood." Xu Siting looked at Zhou Mu without any surprise on his face, and said, "How much did you pay?"

"5000 taels of gold." Zhou Mu was triumphant, as if he saw that Xu Siting had been beaten up and begged for mercy.

Xu Siting admired: "Sure enough, he is the son of a rich family. He is worth tens of thousands of sixth sons. It would be great if Master's apprentices were like you."

"What sixth child?" Zhou Mu was puzzled.

"Wu Lao Liu, the cook in the Shengjing Imperial Palace." Xu Siting looked calm: "He gave Master a roast goose as a teacher gift."

"..." Zhou Mu felt a little dizzy: "The six chefs... are also martial arts prodigy?"

"No." Xu Siting shook his head, with longing in his eyes: "He is a genius at making roast goose. The skin of the roast goose is crispy and the meat is delicious. It's delicious."

"Then why did the master accept him as an apprentice?" Zhou Mu had a vague premonition.

"Why didn't you accept it?" Xu Siting gave him a strange look: "He paid the apprenticeship ceremony!"

"How many apprentices does master have?" Zhou Mu's voice trembled.

"Including you, a total of 420 and seven." Xu Siting quickly gave the answer: "You used to be Blacksmith Zhang in Fugui Lane, Shengjing."

"Have you also paid the apprentice ceremony?"

"A kitchen knife, made of fine iron." Xu Siting said bluntly: "Tiejiang Zhang was Carpenter Wang before, and he gave Master a mahogany recliner, the kind carved and hollowed out; Carpenter Wang was Li Xianxian who sold flowers before, and he gave Master a A string of jasmine flowers."

"How do you know so clearly?" Zhou Mu felt a little ringing in his ears.

"Master and I have a three-to-seven point for every apprenticeship ceremony." Xu Siting patted the petrified Zhou Mu with a smile: "Little brother, big brother, thank you for the 500 taels of gold."

"Master... isn't he a hero?" Zhou Mu tried hard to grasp the last glimmer of hope.

"Heroes also need to eat, so the more things like apprentices, the better." Xu Siting left Zhou Mu and walked back: "This is what the master said."

The last glimmer of hope in Young Master Tuesday's heart was gone.
