subordinates dare not

The belated welcome banquet is scheduled for the eighth day of March.

When Meng Fuyuan and his party were about to settle down, Hua Qiongsheng only said that he was very busy, and he had to delay it again and again because he was entangled in urgent matters.He knew that Hua Qiongsheng's busyness might be related to his damaged soul, so he was grateful from the bottom of his heart, and thanked Hua Qiongsheng again and again.

Lu Shi looked forward to the stars, hoped for the moon, and finally looked forward to the second banquet in Qiongguang Valley. Compared with the first time, it was even better, and there was no perfunctory.

I saw two mahogany square tables, with more than a dozen people sitting together happily. Only this time, Hua Qiongsheng and Meng Fuyuan were not sitting alone at the table, because there was an extra "deputy owner", but Bian Qingyu's temperament was extremely indifferent , Hua Qiongsheng made several conversations, but the other party seemed indifferent, and seemed too distant and indifferent. Meng Fuyuan couldn't stand it, so he chatted with Hua Qiongsheng casually.

Hua Qiongsheng always liked to laugh, and she didn't care about etiquette, she leaned forward and back together, her eyebrows beaming.

It seemed that Meng Fuyuan's witty remarks made the beautiful woman laugh with bright teeth and bright eyes.

Garlic winter melon, rouge goose, money shrimp cake shark's fin, lion's head, chicken marrow bamboo shoots, drunken crab cold cake white jade soup.Mint, yam, okra, hawthorn and other Chinese herbal medicines are also fortunate to show their talents in the recipes. The delicacies on the jade plate and the golden bottle of sake are salivating, and the fragrance is everywhere.

Hua Qiongsheng deliberately brought out the pear blossom wine that she had collected for many years. She drank it herself, so she got down from her seat and toasted around, which flattered the shadow guards for a while.

The double-breasted sleeves of the wedding dress have long been wet by the accidental splash of wine, leaving circles of deep red, and the bottom of the skirt is covered with dust, which is not as beautiful as before. Hua Qiongsheng holds the cup, a cup of flower wine After eating, I suddenly remembered something, rushed to Meng Fuyuan who was not far away, and shouted loudly: "Master Meng, I forgot to say, you are not able to drink in your body, so don't let me forget it for a while!"

Meng Fuyuan cupped his hands, "Don't dare."

Hua Qiongsheng raised his lips and smiled, "You better be."

This time, everyone feasted on food, tasting dishes and drinking wine more heartily than the first banquet. After all, after more than two months of getting along, everyone is familiar with Hua Qiongsheng's temperament, which is not as restrained as when he came.It's a pity that Meng Fuyuan can't drink, and he can't experience the wantonness of being a little drunk, but fortunately, he is not the only one who can't drink.

When Fangcai Hua Qiongsheng handed over a glass of flower wine, Bian Qingyu claimed that he was too weak to drink alcohol, and since then, he has never touched a drop of alcohol.

This demeanor made Meng Fuyuan suddenly resemble the first time, when Bian Qingyu forcibly broke into Wuwei Villa, he also had the same attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and he didn't take a sip of the hot tea brought by his servants.

Bian Qingyu did this voluntarily, but the other person was forced by the situation——

Lu Jiu, who had lost a month's money and idle time because of drunkenness, saw the jar of pear blossom brewing, like a plague god, and avoided it. Start copying.

Indeed, it seemed that Lu Jiu was arrogant and rude, but whoever made the host of this welcome feast was Hua Qiongsheng in a red wedding dress, compared to this, it seemed nothing strange, and it was no surprise.

In this intriguing rivers and lakes, it is rare to have laughter and happy scenes.

The banquet will finally come to an end, and some people are full of wine and food, and they are still full of emotions, "One day in the Qiongguang Valley, one day of Sai Immortal!"

Meng Fuyuan was walking leisurely towards the courtyard Hua Qiongsheng had arranged for him. He took a walk after dinner to kill the food accumulated in his belly.

In the past, Meng Fuyuan was always thinking about the affairs of the rivers and lakes. It was probably because the bright sunlight in the afternoon flooded his body, warming him, making people easy to slack off and lazy.

The blue and white walls of the courtyard came into view, accompanied by a branch of red plum extending to the blue sky, swaying in a lively manner.

Meng Fuyuan suddenly felt that in this ever-changing day, he was able to enjoy some leisurely taste, and the joy brought by the satisfaction was like the newly melted snow, turning into a warm current under the red sun, which was about to spread to him. Limbs and limbs, but Meng Fuyuan didn't wait for the moment of returning to Gan -

Suddenly a familiar figure flashed in front of his eyes, accompanied by a powerful force that could not be resisted, tightly grasping his shoulders, pressing him against the white wall behind him, the quiet fragrance of red plums refused to go away, The rich wine aroma of pear blossoms has long since dissipated, lingering, and turned into countless floating breaths, spraying all of them around his ears.

"Meng Fuyuan..." Huo Yi lowered his eyes, and he called the other party's name in a low voice, a hint of drunken red appeared on his cheeks.

The shoulders wrapped in Huo Yi's palm, even though there are several thick layers of early spring clothing separated from the other's skin, they suddenly became hot and hot uncontrollably, and the numbness penetrated into the bone marrow in an instant. , the opponent's facial features suddenly enlarged in front of his eyes——

Huo Yi kissed her directly.

The restraint of his kiss, every time his lips touched, they just touched like a dragonfly, as if he was blaspheming, as if he was committing some unforgivable sin, the turbulent eyes were struggling pain, but the limbs were willing Depravity and perdition.

Meng Fuyuan did not respond.

This time it was too close, and Meng Fuyuan could finally see the emotions in Huo Yi's eyes clearly. Those so-called struggles became very ridiculous in his eyes, so even if it was the first time for Huo Yi to approach and kiss him, Meng Fuyuan would not He didn't feel the joy of having his long-cherished wish come true, but when he clearly sensed the other party's emotions, Meng Fuyuan had only one thought, and he was still struggling with that broken rule.

The tingling sensation just now subsided quickly, like a sudden ebb and flow, leaving only the fish left in the shoal, losing the water flow they depended on for survival, and could only die.Meng Fuyuan felt that his body, which had become hot just now, began to cool down inch by inch. Finally, taking advantage of Huo Yi's interval of breathing, Meng Fuyuan asked in a deep voice, "Is kissing enough?"

As expected, the other party's complexion suddenly became ugly, and the drunkenness subsided a lot, along with some blood, leaving only paleness on the cheeks and lips.

Huo Yi suddenly knelt down.

With one knee on the ground, he respectfully cupped his hands and bowed his body, so Meng Fuyuan couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, "I'm under you for a while," stuttering rarely, this time, Huo Yi spoke loudly, as if determined, "Offending the owner on impulse, the subordinate deserves death, and I ask the owner to punish him."

Finally willing to admit it, Meng Fuyuan thought silently.

Looking down at the person kneeling under his eyes, Meng Fuyuan could catch a glimpse of the upper half of Huo Yi's face. Under the cover of the human skin mask, his appearance was only six points similar to the original one, but Meng Fuyuan could see through the mask as thin as cicada's wings, recalling The shape of the other party's facial features, that is, after all, he treats each other sincerely, and the person he really likes is the person he can find at the first sight in the sea of ​​people like a river.

But sometimes there are some things, maybe you really can't force it, and it will only make both parties uncomfortable, so it's better to make a decision.

It is also time to settle this matter thoroughly, regardless of the outcome.

For the last time, Meng Fuyuan said to himself in his heart, this is the last time.

He sighed softly, and asked the people below, "Do you still recognize me as the owner of the villa? Do you recognize everything I punish?"

"Yes."

"Then what if I punish you and continue to offend me?" Meng Fuyuan said suddenly.

Huo Yiyi froze in place.

"Huo, Zi, Lu." Meng Fuyuan said every word, with a sober posture, called out the name that the two of them were already familiar with, "Don't pretend to be deaf and stupid."

Taking a deep breath, Meng Fuyuan said coldly: "Words and deeds are my rules for being the owner of Wuwei Villa, but I have made exceptions for you many times before, and I don't want to endure your capricious and unpredictable actions anymore. The ending trembled a little, and after a pause, Meng Fuyuan finally calmed down his voice, and continued: "Today is the last exception, and I will give you two choices now. One is to be honest with each other and stay by my side, and the other is you If you continue to be awkward by yourself, I will ask Ming Er to send you back to Wuwei Villa immediately."

"So, which one do you choose?"

Huo Yi's silence is already the norm, and Meng Fuyuan is no stranger to it.

"Wuwei Villa's regulations, Article [-], the shadow guard must answer the owner's questions." So he pressed on step by step, "Huo Zilu, which one do you choose?"

Huo Yi was still speechless, only he knew that his hands hidden under his clothes had been clenched into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands were twisted, as if trying to restrain himself.

"Okay, I understand, you want to go back." The light in Meng Fuyuan's eyes dimmed instantly, "Then I'll treat it as if I've been bitten by a dog, and you and I will never mess with each other from now on, and I will never do those provocative actions again. Save yourself the trouble of advancing or retreating, you are in a dilemma, from now on you don’t have to consider my identity and dare not refuse me, you only need to stick to your duty as a shadow guard in the future, since you want to do so, I will let you do so.”

Meng Fuyuan's voice was tired, and he murmured softly: "I'll go find Ming Er right away, and let him take you back to the village..."

Meng Fuyuan turned around to leave, but suddenly, the figure in front of him moved, Huo Yi grabbed both wrists, and pressed against the wall with an inescapable force, so he couldn't move.

"I... like the owner."

The voice was very small, but it hit Meng Fuyuan's heart heavily. When he raised his eyes suddenly, a few plum blossoms fell, and the scent of the other party was overwhelmingly overwhelmed with the scent of sweet pear blossom wine.

"It's always been, I like it."
