"This is …"

Downstairs, Yingzhu asked Wan Xin with confusion and bitterness. Protector Xuan Xin sighed and looked at her: "You should know that Sir Qin has a lover, right? "Hey, it's her."

"Which lady is she?"

"That's hard to say, there's no status within people." He thought for a moment and then answered.

"Then where does he stand?" Ying Zhuo's words were full of jealousy.

"Nature."

"Huh?"

"In short, she is not on the same level as you. There is no comparison. Give up. " Wan Xin let out a long sigh, walked around Yingzhu, sat down at the table, and poured a cup of wine. Ying Zhen was silent for a moment before pouting, "He doesn't look smart either."

"If you are not smart, you cannot rely on your knowledge. Moreover, Lord Qin likes her and does not like you. Wan Xin drank a mouthful of wine, then softly added, "In terms of how much you know, you might not even be able to win against her. "After all, he's a monster who's lived for hundreds of years …"

"What did you say?" The last sentence was too soft, and Yingzhu was lost in thought, so she did not hear it clearly. Wan Xin shrugged and said no more.

Should he give up? It was taboo for a girl to pester him for so long. However, when she thought of her sisters' fear before their marriage, as well as the constant reports of them being abused by her in-laws, she found it hard to give up.

When Qin Lingmo and Hu Ying came downstairs, it had already been two incense sticks of time. Even a blind person could tell that Lord Qin was in a good mood. Wan Xin couldn't help teasing and ridiculing him, but he was caught by Hu Ying and scolded him half-truthfully for not taking good care of her family's Mo Mo.

"You're letting Mo Mo eat this kind of food?"

"Miss Little Hu, this is the best meal in the inn." Wan Xin smiled bitterly. Tongyang County was a small county, and the level of the tavern was average.

"Let me show you!"

Hu Ying dived into the kitchen of the inn. No one knew what method she used. In short, the shopkeeper, who looked bald, had actually agreed to it.

Anyone who was able to say that they wanted to show off their skills must definitely have some true ability. Yingzhu did not expect to see the rice cooked into a pot and the vegetables cooked into a piece of charcoal, but at the bottom of her heart, she still secretly hoped that Hu Ying would have some problems. For women, being able to cook delicious food was definitely an option that increased their points.

When rich and fragrant dishes were served to the table, Yingzhu instantly knew that she had lost. That line of dishes was not that expensive. It was nothing more than ordinary vegetables such as leek and tofu. However, Hu Ying's hands were plated with a fresh and alluring color. Although it was a vegetarian dish, it had an endless aftertaste. It did not feel like it had a clear and watery flavor at all.

Even Wan Xin could not hold it in anymore. He picked up a few chopsticks and started eating. It seemed that his cooking skills were even better than his own. Unknowingly, he began to eat.

"How is it?" Regardless of how others praised her, to Hu Ying, Qin Lingmo's feelings were the most important. She stared eagerly at Qin Lingmo, her clear eyes filled with anticipation.

"Delicious." Qin Lingmo only said these two words before using his actions to prove himself. He picked up a big chopstick of fresh prawns and stuffed it into his mouth. Although the skin of the tofu was cold, it was still hot inside. Qin Lingmo shivered at the heat, but his lips still quivered as he bit through the tofu. The ball of steam wrapped around Qin Lingmo shot out like a ball of fire. It was so hot that Qin Lingmo could only fan himself with his hand.

Hu Ying hurriedly scooped up a spoonful of soup and handed it over. The warm egg silk broth quelled the fire between his lips, and the sweet and fragrant broth slid down his throat. Warmth surged up from the depths of his heart.

"Still hot?" Hu Ying leaned over with a pained expression.

"Not hot. Delicious." Qin Lingmo smiled as he raised his bowl. "It's still delicious."

Hu Ying's face turned slightly red. For once, she was a little shy. She blinked her sparkling and translucent eyes, reached out her snow-white neck and kissed Qin Ling Mo's cheek with a smack.

This scene caused all the people around them to hold their rice bowls in their hands. Their eyes were focused on their nose, their nose was focused on their heart, and their mouths were stuffed with food.

"You're welcome. Eat more, eat more. There's also meat dishes." Hu Ying brought out a few plates of stewed pigeons and burnt beef. Who knew where she got the ingredients. Anyway, there won't be any in this roadside inn.

After eating two mouthfuls, Qin Ling Mo felt that the meat was delicious. It was plump but not greasy, and the fragrance lingered in his mouth. However, the people at this table were all men. No matter how much meat there was, the chopsticks would never be enough for them. Qin Lingmo did not use his status to suppress others, and he would not just simply wave his hand and chase everyone out to chew the pickled vegetables. Moreover, since he was born in a noble house, he could not even do something like carrying away the pot and taking care of the food with a hen.

However, Hu Ying was very clear on his intentions. She whispered into Qin Lingmo's ear and said in a playful tone, "I already had another serving prepared long ago. I knew Mo Mo would not be able to eat it."

"Aiya, Miss Little Hu is biased!" The guards had a particularly lively and talkative baby face. They had heard of Hu Ying's famous name even back in the capital. According to what they would see a few thousand years later, she would be a wine powder.

Hu Ying glared at her and laughed coquettishly with a hint of spiciness in her tone. "Of course I want the best one for my Mo Mo Mo!" You aren't convinced? If you don't accept it, then your wife will do the same! "

Everyone at the table laughed. The baby's face touched the back of her head embarrassedly. Her freckled face blushed slightly. "I, I haven't said my kiss yet …"

Hu Ying's arrival was like a clear stream, sweet and refreshing, easing the tense and heavy atmosphere. The string, which had also caused everyone to tense up, temporarily loosened. After they finished eating and drank their fill, everyone dispersed. Qin Lingmo and Hu Ying also returned upstairs. Needless to say, they were sincere.

Only Wan Xin remained in the lobby, pouring wine alone.

The cicadas were chirping outside the inn, and the stars were sparse and the moon was lazy. Finally, the waiter closed the door, left behind a light, and entered the back hall yawning.

The bean-sized flame danced gently, its light gray shadow swaying. Within the dim yellow halo, Wan Xin picked up a piece of fennel and threw it into his mouth. He held up the wine cup, and after a moment of thought, the expression on his face began to change unpredictably. It was hard to tell if it was depression or contempt.

Light sounds came from the wooden stairs upstairs.

Wan Xin immediately became alert, one hand holding the sword hilt, the other reaching into his bosom, and grabbing the red talisman. His gaze was like a hawk's as he stared at the large shadow that filled the stairs.

As the sound slowly descended, it wasn't demons or ghosts that came out of the shadows. "Hmm …" To be exact, they were not demons or ghosts that needed to be eradicated.

"Miss Little Hu?" Wan Xin was a little surprised, but slowly relaxed.

"I haven't slept yet." The one who walked down was Hu Ying.

"On duty." Wan Xin sat down again and poured another cup of wine with a smile: "Sir Qin is actually willing to let you out?"

"Mo Mo has already gone to sleep. I have put some rhododendron grass to calm him down and let him rest." "You can feel that you've lost weight …" In the end, it had already become Hu Ying's mumbling mumbles.

Wan Xin smiled and shook his head lightly.

"But I really can't see it." Hu Ying also sat down beside him. She did not try to hide her smile and said, "I thought you would be neglecting your duty."

"Miss Little Hu, aren't you looking down on me too much?" Wan Xin twitched the corner of his mouth, as if he was dissatisfied.

"I mean it. You don't look like someone who will listen to you." However, Hu Ying didn't seem to care at all. She picked up a piece of fennel and threw it into her mouth as well. Wan Xin narrowed her eyes, glancing at her, then lowered her head and chuckled, "This is truly depressing, I am completely loyal to the sect, how could I disobey the sect master's orders?"

"You are different from the rain curtain, I can't tell you where you are different. At first, I really didn't want you to follow me, but now, it seems like you are quite useful. " Hu Ying said without concealing anything as she stared at Wan Xin.

"I am indeed different from him." Wan Xin smiled again, took a sip of wine and said, "Our experiences are different, but our relationship is different."

The dim yellow light from the oil lamp fell on his face, casting a shadow over it. It also made the depths of his eyes seem unfathomable.

"No matter what, thank you." Hu Ying's smile was frank and clear. She stretched out her hand to pour Wan Xin a cup of wine and said, "Come, this is for you."

Wan Xin was overjoyed: "I would never dare to do that. If Sir Qin and Miss Little Hu's wine powder knew about it, I wouldn't be able to take it."

"To be honest, Mo Mo is unwilling to tell me the truth. He only said a few casual words, but I know that your journey here is definitely not peaceful. Although I didn't go that day, I watched them leave from afar. The number of people now is not the same as at that time, there are four missing, the horses are not right, the luggage is also missing, I am not lacking in foresight, I could guess it with the tip of my tail. " Hu Ying sighed, "You guys have been robbed, and not just once."

Wan Xin saw that Hu Ying's explanation was very thorough, so she decided to keep it a secret. "Sir Qin has too many enemies. There's nothing we can do about it. But no matter what, we can't let a single hair on his head fall off."

These words were from the bottom of his heart. Along the way, Wan Xin also wanted to kill Qin Lingmo, but his death would bring about chaos. Furthermore, Qin Lingmo was not his goal. He did not have to die — at least for now.

As he was thinking, his face suddenly turned cold. He concentrated and saw a sharp hairpin stuck between his eyebrows. Wan Xin was slightly startled, but immediately suppressed that astonishment as she continued to smile, "Miss Little Hu, be careful of your hand slipping."

After the silver hairpin, Hu Ying's pure black pupils changed to a sparkling green, like two green flames jumping up and down, making people tremble in fear. She grinned, revealing her canine teeth beneath her dark red lips. "Although there is no Mind Reading, I can roughly tell what kind of person it is, but there are only two people in this world that I can't see. One is Mo Mo, and the other is you, Mo Mo is disordered because I love him too much. But you, you are too complicated. Your heart is the deep sea. "

"However, regardless of whether you are a deep sea or a dead sea, if you dare to harm Mo Mo, I will absolutely not forgive you. Heaven will fall and the earth will crack. Even if you want to escape, you can forget about it! "

Her words weren't loud, but they were like silver needles piercing into one's heart. With the deep look in her eyes, the murderous aura belonging to a wild beast came pressing over. If it was an ordinary person, they would have already wet their pants in fear.

There was a faint sound from the shadows upstairs.

Wan Xin was silent for a moment. She raised a faint smile: "Lady Hu, don't worry. I definitely won't let anything happen to Lord Qin."

"That's good." Hu Ying let out a sigh of relief. With a sweet smile, he patted Wan Xin's shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry too much. I'm just reminding you repeatedly."

Did anyone hold a silver hairpin and press it against the center of their brows to give an order? No matter how you looked at it, this should be coercion. Wan Xin did not stab him. Instead, he gave an exaggerated long sigh and wiped his forehead with his hand.

"However, you should come out now, right? I heard that it's about time now. "
