Jiang Shi slapped the table and laughed crazily, "Right, right, right, but I wasn't wearing open pants when I was young, so there's no need for him.

"But when we met at the entrance, from the attitude of the Dr Zhu, why does it seem like they aren't familiar with you?"

"He was born cold and thin-skinned. He doesn't treat anyone coldly or warmly, and he also has a very high opinion of himself. Normally, he doesn't even put me in his eyes. Even I often wonder if he really treats me as a friend or not."

"So that's how it is." Zhou Leping turned and said to Zhu Guanliang, "This body of yours is truly worthy of respect and admiration, no matter how I say, why do I keep feeling that..."

She narrowed her eyes and looked him up and down. "I always felt that there was an indescribable sense of nobility in you."

Zhu Guanliang looked straight at her, without hiding anything and raised his wine cup, "Before I met the general, I was just a wandering doctor who had fallen down, and it's normal that I don't eat my fill. Rather than saying that it's more accurate to say that I have a noble mind after seeing through the affairs of the world, it's more appropriate to say that I have an indifferent attitude."

"Well said!" She clinked a glass with him and downed it. "There aren't many people in this world who can see through things like you."

Jiang Shi could hear the probing tone in Zhou Leping's words, but Zhu Guanliang's answer was watertight, and he was calm and composed, like a pool of stagnant water.

He quickly returned to the topic at hand. He talked about the ladies in the shop and told a few funny jokes to ease the atmosphere. After three rounds of drinking, the faint tension on the table was finally overturned.

Jiang Shi's mouth was full of galloping horses. He had already started to call Zhou Leping brother halfway through the drink, praising her heroic bearing, praising her ability to lead soldiers to war. Her mouth was full of admiration and admiration.

"A general comes from a family of generals, and their ancestors even had the achievement of founding an empire. In terms of leading their troops to war, they are number one. Who would be afraid of a name like this general if they didn't hear it?" "Rumor has it that generals have a strong army, and their arrangement has reached the acme of perfection. Every battle is like the assistance of the heavens, and one can see just how important it is for them to be familiar with the art of war."

Zhou Leping raised his index finger and shook it back and forth, "Isn't that the same thing? "It's useful, but we're talking about it on paper after all. If we want to win the battle, we have to rely on this …" She pointed at her own head. "It's all in my head."

Zhu Guanliang gestured towards Jiang Shi, signalling him to stop asking questions. Zhou Leping was not drunk yet, she was just a little tipsy.

He burped out in satisfaction, as if he was drunk. He half knelt on the table and started babbling nonsense, "Don't just look at me opening a rouge shop, I also want to join the army, but my family only have me as the sole son. If I die, my parents won't be able to live either, so I especially admire the general."

"Your friend is drunk."

Zhou Leping slowly pecked the wine in his cup, and seeing that Jiang Shi was lying on the table and had not gotten up, he asked Zhu Guanliang, "Since you two have been friends for more than ten years, why did your friend not help you when you were down and out?"

"To me, being rich or poor is just a way of life. If I wanted to, I could have lived a good life. Being rich or rich is not bad at all. It would save me a lot of trouble."

"He really is someone who has gone through too much trouble. How can he be so open-minded at such a young age?"

"But why do I hear the irony in the general's words?"

"Is there?"

She finished the last of her wine and stood up. "It's getting late. It's time to go back."

Zhu Guanliang stood up and left with her. The servants waiting in the courtyard far away waited for the two to leave, then stepped forward to support Jiang Shi.

Zhou Leping decided to pass through the shop while he was at it. He finally couldn't hold it in and stopped to look for a while, but he decided not to touch it.

"There are no outsiders here. If you like it, you can give it a try."

Zhou Leping glanced at him. Aren't you an outsider?

"Just look at the color."

Everyone knew that she was a general and that she was a woman, but if anyone found out that she was smeared with makeup, there would definitely be some unsuitable discussion.

In the eyes of the masses, if you had a certain amount of power and a certain amount of position, you would have to give up some of those positions to appear fair.

She lost the right to be a woman when she became a general.

Zhu Guanliang selected a box of rouge, grabbed her wrist, and brought her to sit under the light.

Zhou Leping was alarmed, "What are you doing?"

"This color suits you."

"I said I don't need it, just by looking at it, you think I like it?" "Then I've looked at you quite a few times. Do I really like you?"

She pulled down Zhu Guanliang's hand and got up angrily, "Don't be so arrogant, what rights do you have to make the decision for me?"

These words still did not change the expression on Zhu Guanliang's face. Sometimes, Zhou Leping even suspected that he was not a wooden person.

She had already said this much, yet he was still unmoved.

Every time she got angry at him, it felt like she was punching cotton. Not only did it not vent her anger, it only made her angrier.

Since it was only a matter of time before he would be angered to death, Zhou Leping walked right past him.

But before he could take two steps, he stopped.

Suddenly, her face lightened. Her mask was taken off from her back and dropped to the floor. The fall of her mask made a loud sound when it hit the floor tiles.

Advancing by an inch!

Zhou Leping raised his fist, Zhu Guanliang grabbed her hands and pulled her back into the chair, both hands pressing on her shoulders, "There's no money in this world, do you understand? I didn't say you liked it, but you denied it first.

"You! What kind of nonsense was this? Let go! Otherwise, I will make my move. "

Zhu Guanliang didn't wait for her to make a move, he dipped his fingertips in some rouge and smeared it on her face.

Zhou Leping suddenly calmed down.

His fingers were long and slender with distinct joints. As he traced his fingertips across his face, it was gentle and careful. She didn't reject this feeling, but she actually felt comfortable.

But it was hard for her to imagine herself smeared with rouge.

She didn't even dare to look at herself in the mirror when she was by herself, and just looking at Zhu Guanliang made her feel ugly. Zhu Guanliang was completely self-torturing, even though it was his own will, but staring at this face for so long, she had to blame herself for making things difficult for him.

"If you dare to speak of this matter, tomorrow I will slaughter you and throw you to the wolves in the back mountain!"

After all, this concerned her reputation as a wise general. If necessary, she could choose to silence him.

Zhu Guanliang carefully smeared the powder on her face, and quickly added, "You always wear a mask, so it means that someone wants to know what Chief General looks like by smearing it to gain respect."

When the tip of his finger came to her lips, his voice also became softer. "With the general's skill, even commoners wouldn't be able to approach the general's body."
