It was night, after having dinner, Lou Jinhuan sat in the pavilion in the backyard, looking at the shadow and the moon, drinking wine, admiring the flowers, and waiting for the fish to bite.
Xiao Ning's yard is near the garden. In the afternoon, the embroiderer came to tailor her clothes, and someone from the jewelry shop brought new products for her to choose. After a long day of work, Xiao Ning was also tired. She had already rested after taking a bath. It was dark inside.
If she didn't tell anyone, no one would know she lived here.
The snow-clad guards were hiding in the dark, quietly protecting Xiao Ning's safety. There was no one in the garden. When Xiao Qi came over, he thought Lou Jinhuan had set up a dragnet, but when he took a closer look, she was alone.
This was more dangerous than a dragnet, and Xiao Qi couldn't help but recall the feeling of their lips touching that night.
Whether to go down or not became a question. He hid on the eaves and struggled for a long time. Lou Jinhuan drank three glasses of wine.
By the fourth cup, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked in a dumbfounded voice: "How long are you going to watch there? Are you so afraid of me?"
Sometimes a man can't be excited. Once he gets excited, he will come down.
Lou Jinhuan was sitting in the pavilion. There was no shelter around her, it was pitch black, and the moonlight couldn't shine in. Only her white clothes shone brightly.
There are fruits and wine bottles on the stone table. When the wind blows, the aroma of fruit and wine mixes and spreads out of the pavilion, adding a bit of floral fragrance, making the taste more intoxicating.
Xiao Qi jumped down from the eaves, like an eagle under the moonlit night. He was agile and his eyes were sharp. When he stared at a person, he gave people a sense of oppression with nowhere to escape.
Lou Jinhuan had just filled a glass of wine, raised his glass, looked into his eyes, smiled slightly, and the atmosphere suddenly changed.
A gust of breeze blew by, and Xiao Qi suddenly disappeared. Lou Jinhuan's back felt cold. She smiled, picked up the folding fan on the table behind her with one hand, and held the wine glass steadily with the other.
With a "cang" sound, the weapons connected, Lou Jinhuan's palms were slightly numb.
She threw the wine glass upwards, grabbed Xiao Qi's wrist with her backhand, and spun around to face him.
Xiao Qi let go of the sword in his hand, raised it with his toes, and the sword flew up. The two of them looked at each other and reached out to grab it in unison.
Lou Jinhuan made a feint, seemingly grabbing the sword, but in fact he broke free from his shackles and caught the falling wine glass with his backhand.
"I originally planned to buy you a drink, but you started dancing with swords as soon as you arrived, isn't that right?"
She smiled softly, unfolded the folding fan to reveal the blade, hooked her fingers, and the folding fan flew around, flexibly blocking every attack of Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi snorted coldly, "Did you kidnap my sister here just to buy me a drink?"
"That's not true."
Lou Jinhuan was forced out of the pavilion, and the sword was pointed directly at her heart.
She narrowed her eyes and held her folding fan in front of her to block. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qi flicked his wrist and suddenly moved it up to pick at her mask.
She subconsciously threw the wine glass, leaned back to avoid the sword, and bent her waist into an extremely soft arc.
However, Xiao Qi had no intention of lifting her mask. He turned and pressed the sword, and the wine glass fell on the sword with a crisp "clang" sound.
Lou Jinhuan spun around to avoid the tip of the sword and straightened up. She retracted her folding fan and knocked it on her palm. She looked at Xiao Qi opposite. He showed a smile to win back the victory. He retracted his sword and the wine glass fell on him. In his hand, he raised his hand to Lou Jin and said, "It's disrespectful."
Lou Jinhuan was silent for a moment and then smiled suddenly.
[Ouch, ouch, ouch, are these two fighting or flirting? 】
[Isn’t this obvious? Obviously flirting! Xiao Qi learned bad things and clicked his tongue, thinking he was innocent, but he didn't expect it was Bai Qiehei. 】
[You two get married right where you are! I'll move the Civil Affairs Bureau here for you! 】
Lou Jinhuan unfolded the folding fan and gently shook it twice. He watched Xiao Qi finish the wine and raised his eyebrows, "I thought you would ask where your sister is first."
Xiao Qi played with the wine glass in his hand, his eyes dim and unclear, "If I ask, will you tell me?"
"How will you know if you don't try?" She turned around and walked into the pavilion.
Xiao Qi followed closely behind.
The two sat down on both sides of the stone table. Xiao Qi put the wine glass back on the table. Lou Jinhuan looked at his sword and said, "Don't be so nervous, right? I have many chances to kill you. Put down the sword and let's have a good time." Let’s talk.”
Xiao Qi hesitated for a moment and felt that what she said made sense, so he put his sword back into its scabbard and stood beside the stone table.
"Your sister is indeed here with me, and she is not far from you. You can go and see her after we finish talking, but I don't recommend that you take her away now."
Lou Jinhuan twisted a grape, peeled it, ate it, and spoke slowly.
Xiao Qi's eyes suddenly lit up, "Conditions."
"Huh?" Lou Jinhuan looked at him with her head propped up.
Xiao Qi narrowed his eyes, "You're not going to do a loss-making business, are you? You went to such great lengths to capture my sister, is it just to let us meet?"
"Why not?" Lou Jinhuan asked, "I just want you to meet me, there are no other conditions."
"I don't believe it." Xiao Qi's expression suddenly became cold, "You and I are neither relatives nor friends. There is no such good thing in this world."
"Who said we are not relatives but not old friends?" Lou Jin laughed happily, "The first time I saw you, I felt like we were reunited after a lifetime."
As she spoke, she slowly took off her mask, revealing her extremely aggressive face, and smiled like a fairy under the moon.
"If there are any conditions -" she hooked her fingers, "come here with your ears."
Xiao Qi looked at her warily and did not move.
Lou Jinhuan was not in a hurry and continued to peel the grapes. After a while, there were several crystal clear grape flesh on the plate.
Seeing that she was so calm and composed, Xiao Qi couldn't sit still. He leaned closer and said, "Say."
Lou Jinhuan raised his eyes slightly and whispered in his ear: "Leave the third prince and come to me."
She used the original pronunciation, which sounded strange and familiar at the same time, making his heart throb uncontrollably.
The distance was too close, and the smell of her body suddenly became stronger.
[Congratulations to the host, the favorability of the target is increased by ten, and the current total favorability is twenty-three. Come on~]
Xiao Qi suddenly woke up and backed away, "No way, I will not betray the third prince."
His reaction was expected by Lou Jinhuan, and she was not surprised. She asked calmly: "But he betrayed you first, didn't he? He imprisoned your sister as a blackmail. Do you still have to sacrifice your life for such a person? "
"He saved my life, and I swear allegiance to him." Xiao Qi lowered his head.
"Okay, I won't persuade you anymore. I'll wait until you give up and come to me."
Lou Jinhuan threw him a handkerchief, "Then do me a favor now and I'll let you go see your sister."
"What's the deal?" Xiao Qi looked at her warily and grabbed the handkerchief.
She stretched out her hands and spread her palms, which were still stained with some grape juice.
"Wipe my hands."
Xiao Qi: "That's it?"
"Well, do you want to wipe it?" Lou Jinhuan curled his fingers.
