After several days of observation, Qian Zhao found that Lingzhouyang did not do anything bad.
Tianxing Gorge was victorious, and Ning Touer had people prepare a bonfire party.
Ling Zhouyang was not very enthusiastic about the party, so she sat next to Yuan Lu and chatted with him.
Yuan Lu seemed to like her very much and had a great time chatting with her.
It was rare to relax, so he watched Yu Shisan dance with his cousin. When he saw Ning Tou'er's face turned dark, he made a sarcastic comment next to him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Ling Zhouyang coughing.
When he turned to look at Ling Zhouyang, whose face was red from coughing, even he himself didn't notice the concern in his voice.
Seeing her coughing up tears but waving her hands and saying it was okay, he turned his head doubtfully and secretly diverted half of his thoughts from watching the bonfire to her side.
The cheers of the crowd were so loud that he vaguely heard Ling Zhouyang saying something to Yuan Lu that was not simple.
Then Yuanlu pulled his sleeve, and alarm bells rang in his heart. In order not to alert others, he could only ask Yuanlu softly what was wrong.
Yuan Lu didn't answer, but kept winking, his eyes moving back and forth between the two of them.
In the end, seeing that he really didn't understand, Yuanlu could only say to change positions.
He was a little confused, but he still changed places with Yuanlu.
Judging from Yuan Lu's appearance, Ling Zhouyang probably didn't do anything to him, so he turned around and asked Ling Zhouyang.
Lingzhouyang said he just asked a question and Yuanlu didn't want to answer.
He nodded, thinking in his mind that it shouldn't be a big problem, otherwise Yuanlu would definitely tell him.
Although Yuanlu is young, he is not ambiguous at all on important matters.
He sat for a while longer before getting up and going to barbecue for everyone.
During the barbecue, Sun Lang came over to talk to him and said that his cousin danced very well.
He turned around and saw that his cousin's steps were clearly Anguo's Huixuanwu.
He was a little surprised, but he didn't show it. Ning Tou'er clearly said that his cousin was a bad person in Chu State, so how could she know the dance steps of An State?
After watching them dance, he could only sprinkle dogwood on the barbecue, but his cousin really didn't eat dogwood.
Anger arose in his heart. Is Ren Ruyi really from Anguo? Does Ningtouer know? Or were they all deceived?
Seeing that everyone at the party was very happy, he hid his thoughts. This matter needed to be confirmed carefully before he could talk about it.
He left early because he had something on his mind.
He patrolled around the yard alone. When he came back, the party was over and almost everyone fell asleep.
He originally wanted to go back to his room to rest after freshening up.
Unexpectedly, he had just finished washing up, and before he could return to his room, he found a piece of skirt floating on the roof of the lobby.
Qing Yi, only Ling Zhouyang in the mission likes Qing Yi, why is she still on the roof so late?
Could it be that you want to do something!
After he got on the roof, he saw Ling Zhouyang lying on the roof, sleeping quietly with her arms on her pillow. There were two wine jars lying beside her in the tile trough.
Qian Zhao's eyes flashed slightly, he leaned down and called Miss Lingzhou softly.
However, Ling Zhouyang was sleeping deeply and was not woken up by him.
He originally wanted to go back to the room and get a quilt to cover her, but he felt the biting cool breeze.
He thought that the girl's body was already relatively weak, and she would probably catch cold and get sick even if she had a quilt.
After thinking for a long time, he reached out and hugged her into his arms.
Qian Zhao frowned. The weight of the person in his arms didn't feel as heavy as his sword.
The cool breeze rustled the leaves, and he saw the person in his arms rubbing his arms.
So he stopped staying and jumped off the roof.
He has been wielding knives all year round, and his body is much heavier than ordinary people. Not to mention that he is holding a person in his arms, and the sound of falling to the ground is louder than usual.
He thought he would wake up the person in his arms, but when he lowered his head and saw that she only frowned slightly, she showed no sign of waking up.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and carried Ling Zhouyang back to her room.
When he put Ling Zhouyang on the bed, he was about to get up, but was pulled back again.
A closer look revealed that Ling Zhouyang's right hand had hooked his shoulder strap.
He pinched her wrist through Ling Zhouyang's clothes, took her hand away, and then covered her with the quilt before exiting her room.
After returning to the room for a long time, he couldn't fall asleep. The smell of Ling Zhouyang still lingered on his body, and the smell of wine was mixed with the faint scent of herbs.
Thinking of Ling Zhou's peaceful sleeping face, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
But for a moment, he noticed his own smile, and something moved in his heart. He had an idea that surprised him. Could he really have fallen in love with Ling Zhouyang as Yu Shisan said?
He shook his head in denial. They had only known each other for a few days, how could he be attracted to her? This must be an illusion.
It must have been that he had seen too much interaction between Ning Tou'er and his cousin recently and heard too much nonsense from Yu Shisan, so he had this untrue idea.
Just soothing himself, Qian Zhao fell asleep.
But he didn't sleep peacefully, and Ling Zhouyang appeared in his dreams several times.
He was so frightened that he stood up before dawn.
During the whole journey of the mission, he did not dare to look at Ling Zhouyang.
Later, on the way, His Highness wanted to ride a horse. In order to protect His Highness's safety, they could only stand on the roadside together, just in case.
Looking at the figures of His Highness and Yuan Lu, he suddenly smelled a familiar fragrance, which was the scent of Ling Zhouyang, so he did not dare to look back.
But after hearing what she said, he had to look back.
How did she figure out that His Highness was disguised as a man? Recently, with the training of my cousin, His Highness has become more and more handsome.
He turned to look at Ling Zhouyang. She was not as gentle when she was awake as she was when she was asleep.
At this time, she was more assertive. Thinking of the way she slept last night, Qian Zhao couldn't help but feel guilty.
After they chatted for a while, Ling Zhouyang actually said that there were sufficient reasons to doubt their identities, which made both him and Yu Shisan feel a little flustered.
Everyone has been getting along quite well these days. If Ling Zhouyang was really an enemy, he would feel sorry for him.
However, from his cousin's words, it seemed that he knew Lingzhouyang quite well, but according to his usual observations, he did not find that the two of them interacted too much.
Ning Tou'er trusted his cousin very much, and with just one look from his cousin, he asked him to explain their identities to Ling Zhouyang.
Although he still suspected his cousin because of the dancing, he had no substantial evidence. He could only hope that his cousin was not someone with ulterior motives.
The road is not the place to talk about things, so they went all the way to Jicheng, and he took his time to find Ling Zhouyang.
When he arrived at the door of Lingzhouyang's room, he saw her packing her things with a faint smile on her lips.
He could hear his heart beating wildly, and he forced himself to calm down.
Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, Ling Zhouyang raised her head and waved to him with curved eyebrows.
He rubbed his thumb and index finger and subconsciously held his breath.
