Rise in the glory of the king system

Chapter 734 A Cup

Shuangbai. "Wine."

"Yo. Isn't this Li's body? Are you interested in having a drink?"

The light autumn is ups and downs. The greenery is lush. It is a rare good weather. Li Bai, who is biting a grass stalk, has suffered from alcohol addiction again, but his pockets are empty. He is depressed, but he sees the fox who is enjoying the shade under the tree The same body. It is said that the fox does not like others to call him a fox, so Li Bai automatically blocked the address. The fox glanced lazily at Li Bai, and explained his little thoughts.
"I heard that Lord Sword Immortal owed money to the tavern a few days ago. Why did you have the money to buy me a drink today?"

Li Bai who was seen through was a little resentful, but for the sake of the wine, he put down his face and sat next to the fox, and continued to make excuses.
"Money was a little tight a few days ago. You know, Li can't write good poems if he doesn't drink alcohol. You are the same body of Li, so why not invite Li to have a drink?"

The fox didn't bother to talk to him, after all, it doesn't cost much to buy a glass of wine. So he agreed. When he followed Li Bai to the tavern, he realized that he was wrong.
His fellow alcoholic flicked his sleeves freely and ordered two jars of expensive wine.
No wonder I owe someone money for drinks...

The fox thought so. But after all, Li Bai was his own body, so he had to save some face for him. So he helped Li Bai pay for the wine.
"Thank you Fox...Li's body."

When the word "fox" was about to blurt out, Li Bai suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing. If he was upset and walked away, it would not be worth the loss, so he hurriedly changed his address.
But the fox didn't pay attention to the flaws in his language, but drank the wine carefully. The wine was not as strong as ordinary wine, which made people cry, but it was sweet with hints of sweetness. There are a few peach petals floating low, which accentuates the sweetness of the wine.
"This is the best peach blossom wine."

Li Bai winked at the fox, then put his arm on his shoulder.
"Don't worry. I won't let you suffer. Li will pay you back when he has money some other day."

As Li Bai's congener, the fox knew that the meaning of this day was to borrow money without repaying it. However, he didn't care too much about it, just sipped his wine.
Li Bai raised his head and took a sip of the wine, his throat pumped a few times to swallow the wine. He seemed to be choking, and he narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.
"What do you think of this wine?"

The fox looked at Li Bai's eyes stained with mist, and curled the corners of his lips as if he couldn't help but feel helpless. There was also an unnoticeable softness in his tone.
"Of course it's wonderful."

……

Shuanglan. "The five elements lack me."

"A person who lacks wood in the horoscope and five elements has a cold temperament..."

Hua Mulan casually read the words on the yellowed pages, glanced thoughtfully at King Lanling who was sitting next to her, and then reached out and tapped his shoulder.
"It's quite similar to you... Chang Gong, are you short of wood in five elements?"

Gao Changgong glanced at the book in Hua Mulan's hand, but did not answer. He has never been interested in things like divination.
Hua Mulan and Gao Changgong lived together a year ago. Because the two were college classmates and couldn't find a partner after graduation, they decided to try to get together. But things didn't go as smoothly as they wished.
Hua Mulan is a carefree woman, not as gentle as a little girl, even cooking almost blows up the kitchen. Gao Changgong is a person who likes to be quiet and not to be noisy. Hua Mulan is completely different. One is passionate like fire, and the other is warm and moist like jade.
"Hey Gao Changgong! Are you listening to my sister!"

Under normal circumstances, Hua Mulan calls Gao Changgong Chang Gong, and she only calls him by his full name when she is angry. Hua Mulan expressed dissatisfaction with being ignored. She raised her hand to shake Gao Changgong's eyes, and her wrist But he grabbed hold of it.
Feeling the cold touch of her fingertips, Hua Mulan withdrew her hand abruptly. The plastic cup fell off her hand and rolled down with a gurgle. The drink in the cup also bumped up and down, and the crystal clear ice cubes could be vaguely seen inside.
"Speak less."

Gao Changgong picked up the drink for Hua Mulan, stuffed it into her hand and said lightly, as if deliberately mocking Hua Mulan.
Hua Mulan glanced at the iced drink in her hand. It was her favorite blueberry flavor. Unexpectedly, Gao Changgong looked unreasonable, but he was actually quite heart-warming.
"For the drink's sake, I won't argue with you anymore."

After finishing her drink, Hua Mulan tossed the drink bottle up. The bottle drew a graceful arc in the air and landed firmly in the wastebasket. Thinking that Gao Changgong didn't answer her previous question, she asked without giving up.
"Are you short of wood in the five elements?"

Gao Changgong was impatient with her question, so he nodded perfunctorily.
Hua Mulan gave a thoughtful oh, then raised her jaw and began to meditate.
"Then sister, what is missing in the five elements?"

Before the words finished, Gao Changgong raised his fingers to press against Hua Mulan's lips, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.
"Of course you lack me in the five elements."

……

Fang Li. "Beach."

"My heart, as sweet as half an orange—"

In the hot summer, playing in the cool sea water is undoubtedly the happiest thing.
Gongsunli stepped barefoot on the golden beach, and the gravel scorched by the sun was a bit harsh, but she didn't care so much, but held up a small and exquisite oiled paper umbrella, happily leaving a string of footprints on the beach.
"Hands up, Rabbit!"

Li Yuanfang, who was wearing a swimsuit behind her, held up the water gun in her hand, and at the same time winked playfully, posing as a conqueror.
"Be careful, this beach is taken over by me!"

The cold water sprayed out from the water gun and splashed onto Gongsunli's orange skirt. The water rolled in the air for a long time, and the coolness was still not diminished when it touched the skin through the skirt.
Gongsunli puffed up his face pretending to be angry, and then took advantage of Li Yuanfang's inattention, grabbed a large handful of sand and threw it at him. The fine sand slipped from his fingertips, and the remaining sand softly drew a graceful arc in the air, It fell on Li Yuanfang.
Of course Li Yuanfang was not to be outdone, and shot at Gongsunli with a water gun. After all, Gongsunli had practiced dancing, so he avoided the current and ran towards the sea. While running, she tilted her head and smiled at Li Yuanfang. Her soft rabbit ears were close to her. The thin swimsuit kept shivering.
Gongsunli only looked back, but forgot that she was running into the sea. With a plop, her feet were unsteady, and she fell into the sea. A sheet of dark blue covered her sight, and the cold sea water poured into her nostrils, choking her Tears were streaming down her face but she was at a loss. She never thought that the buoyancy of the sea could lift her up, but she just waved her arms like a drowning person trying to get back to the beach.
However, the more she wanted to go back as soon as possible, the faster she couldn't. She was thumping and trying to grab something to support herself from falling, but there was nothing around her except sea water and people swimming in the distance. She opened her mouth to call for help, but a The salty seawater poured into her mouth.
"Grab the swimming ring!"

Hearing Li Yuanfang's voice, the unconscious Gongsunli subconsciously leaned forward and touched the soft swimming ring. With the help of the swimming ring, she finally returned to the beach in a state of embarrassment. She was completely soaked, as if A drowned rabbit.
"You can't swim?"

Li Yuanfang looked at her appearance, and stretched out his hand in doubt.
"Sea water is buoyant, it can make you float."

Gongsunli had learned to swim, but she didn't learn it for long. In addition, she fell into the water unexpectedly, and she forgot all the swimming essentials in a daze.
"That's not true...! Ah Li can swim! Do you dare to compare swimming with Ah Li?"

Li Yuanfang became interested when he heard it. The sea is divided into deep water area and shallow water area, separated by a long red ribbon. He pointed to the ribbon and said.
"We'll compete to see who gets there first."

Gongsunli hesitated for a moment, then put the swimming ring on the beach, and jumped into the water cautiously. She recalled those tedious swimming essentials, and swam to the ribbon as fast as possible.
Unexpectedly, Li Yuanfang looked thin and small, and he swam like a lively fish. He took a deep breath, and swam forward vigorously with his head sullen. Gongsunli followed closely beside him unwillingly. The last two Individuals swam to the red ribbon at the same time.
"Phew...so tired."

Gongsunli brushed his water-soaked hair, looked at Li Yuanfang who was panting, and burst out laughing.
"Do you want ice cream! The beach and ice cream go together best!"

"Okay, okay! Let's eat together!"

……

Yojo. "If you want a cat, you still want me."

"She left?"

It was a quiet night. Snowflakes fell on the thickly accumulated snow mattress, making a rustling sound, which made people feel even more lonely and lonely.
Shouyue stared blankly at the picture on the surveillance video. It was clearly a question sentence, but he abruptly said it into an affirmative sentence. On the picture, the girl whose face could not be seen was caressing carefully in the dark, and approached the gate little by little. , and then lightly climbed over the fence and disappeared into the twilight.
The girl's name is Qiao Ying. She is Shouyue's girlfriend. Shouyue is a secret agent. During a mission, she met Qiao Ying who was like an angel by chance. The two fell in love with each other, and they got together. He received an order from his superiors to complete a very important task. Keeping the promise and not wanting Qiao Ying to get involved, he asked the housekeeper to bring Qiao Ying to his home to offer food and drink. But he also issued a death order. , Qiao Ying is not allowed to go half a step.
Because of his status as a secret agent, the contract-abiding home was built in a relatively remote place. The small house is surrounded by a fence. The house is small but neatly organized, which is pleasing to the eye. Qiao Ying is not happy. Here Although there is expensive food that she would never even dare to think about, it restricts her freedom and makes her look like a canary in a cage. So Qiao Ying secretly plans to escape. Escape from this suffocating place. She also really succeeded.
On the second day after she escaped, Shouyue came back. He thought he could see Qiao Ying with a smiling face, but he heard the news of Qiao Ying's escape from the housekeeper. He called up the video and looked at the graceful figure. The girl, the coldness in her eyes became even colder.
"Get her back."

He paused, a slight change appeared on his stiff face. There was a sneer between his lips and teeth, as if mocking Qiao Ying's overreaching.
"Whatever it takes."

When Qiao Ying was escorted back like a defeated prisoner, the corners of her eyes were red and wet. It was obvious that she had cried. After dismissing the housekeeper, Shou Yue frowned and looked at Qiao Ying. Her tone was filled with complaints, or Say...care. Shouyue is a cold-blooded agent, he doesn't know how to care about others, and even the words of concern seem cold.
"Didn't I say that you are not allowed to go out? What do you want to do?"

Qiao Ying's voice was a little hoarse, and she was a little bit aggrieved.
"You left me here alone, didn't you imprison me in disguise? I still want to ask you what you want to do. Is this how you treat your lover?"

Her words were mixed with a strong nasal voice and low sobs.
"I want to complete a very dangerous task. I'm afraid you will go to find me desperately. So I had to think of this way."

Shouyue looked at her silently, then took her white hand, and said every word.
"From today onwards, I will never leave you again."

Later, the two officially lived together. They were not in the contracted house. They were in Qiao Ying's house—this is a relatively high-end neighborhood. Qiao Ying bought one of the houses. They were opposite each other. A college student who graduated not long ago, kept his contract with him several times, and seemed to be called Sun Ce.
Sun Ce is a very sunny person with a smile on his face. He often invites Shouyue and Qiao Ying to play at his house. Sun Ce has many small animals at home. It is said that he has no relatives and deals with these animals all day long. Qiao Ying fell in love with a kitten in his family. The kitten was snow-white, and looked at strangers with indifference and arrogance, a bit like keeping a promise.
Qiao Ying wanted to buy the kitten from Sun Ce, but Sun Ce said that the neighbors were talking about money, so he gave the kitten to Qiao Ying. It was easy to ask for the agreement of keeping the contract. So the kitten became a part of the family. Member Qiao Ying called it Jojo.
Kittens like Qiao Ying very much, and Qiao Ying also likes kittens. For this reason, she bought a cat-like coat and hat. Fluffy cat ear hair accessories, thick cat gloves, and a playful and beautiful pink thin skirt .
Qiao Ying likes kittens very much, but she doesn't like kittens. After biting his clothes several times, Shouyue asked Qiao Ying with jealousy.
"Do you want me or a date?"

Qiao Ying rubbed the kitten's silky hair, knowing that keeping the promise was jealous, and wanted to drive the kitten out, so she puffed her face and asked.
"Then do you want me or a date?"

Shou Yue chose the former without any hesitation. As a result, Qiao Ying cleared her throat, shook the cat ear hair ornament, and meowed softly. The ending was long and thin, like a kitten's young The cub begged for food from its master. Before Shou Yue could react, Qiao Ying winked playfully.
"You don't want to date, you just don't want me."

Shouyue touched Qiao Ying's hair helplessly, felt the soft touch from her fingertips, and smiled slightly.
"Okay, okay. I want both."

……

Yi Chan. "I only care about you."

"You don't want to like me anyway, do you?"

The night is as deep as an inkstone that cannot be melted. The dots of stars are like pearls, inlaid under the sky, shining like rhinestones. The rain is still pattering underground, lingering continuously.
The wet Diao Chan was like a drowned rat in a state of distress, tears mixed with rainwater and slowly slipped down. The mist in the pink pupils made the eyelashes more slender. Sima Yi, whom she had been chasing for a long time, sat quietly Beside him, his eyes were indifferent, as if he was watching an insignificant farce. To Diao Chan, his pleasant voice was like a rough and heavy object scraping against the glass, making the eardrums hurt.
"Yi has someone he likes..."

Sima Yi paused for a moment, and gracefully picked up the light pink envelope on the corner of the table. Naturally, Diao Chan's infatuation for him was contained in the envelope. He slowly tore up the envelope bit by bit.
"Please don't disturb Yi's life."

After saying that, he left quietly without giving Diao Chan a chance to say a word. His movements were extremely light, and he walked as silently as a cat hidden in the darkness. Diao Chan looked at his gradually going away. Back view, tears wet the delicate makeup little by little.
Diao Chan is a well-deserved school belle in the Academy of Kings——she moves her lotus steps lightly, dances lightly, covers her mouth and smiles to seduce people. It is difficult for her to like anything, but once she likes it, she will pursue it at all costs. What she pursues is exactly Her back desk is also the most mysterious Sima Yi in the whole school. This kind of high-cold male god always has a cold aura of not getting close to strangers. But Diao Chan still pursues him desperately.
However, she failed. She failed completely. There were rumors in the school that Sima Yi liked none other than the young genius Zhuge Liang in the next class. He was a veritable genius. Did not pass the second test.
Once a third party is mixed in the hazy love, it is an extremely painful existence. There is always someone who wants to quit dimly. Therefore, Diao Chan chose to quit. Standing on the dormitory upstairs, feeling the cold wind blowing towards her face, she did not hesitate She stepped over the railing and jumped down. The dull pain spread from her forehead to her whole body, and she vaguely saw a slender figure helping herself up. Then she lost consciousness.
"Even if you are reluctant to give up... so what."

After she woke up, her nose was filled with the smell of disinfectant. She was lying in front of the white hospital bed in the infirmary, and standing beside the bed was Zhuge Liang, who was as bright as a star.
"The doctor said your injury is not serious. Don't worry."

Diao Chan lowered her eyes lightly. She didn't want Zhuge Liang to see the redness in the corners of her eyes, and to see a fragile self. She touched her smooth forehead and wrapped it with a thick gauze, but it still hurt a little. Maybe it was because of the dormitory. The building is not high, perhaps because of luck, she did not die.
"There's corn porridge on the bedside. Drink it while it's hot. Teacher Bian Que is next door. You can call him directly if you have anything to do. I'll go first."

Zhuge Liang walked out of the infirmary, a powerful hand stretched out from the shadows, grabbed Zhuge Liang's wrist, and pulled him to a corner where he could not attract attention.
"Is she all right now?"

Sima Yi narrowed his dark eyes slightly, stared at Zhuge Liang for a long time before asking.
"You did a good deed, why are you hiding? Diao Chan should really want to see you."

Zhuge Liang didn't answer the question instead. In fact, in this accident, he was just an outsider after all. It was Sima Yi who saw Diao Chan and called him to come over to help. Polenta for him. When Zhuge Liang asked Sima Yi why he didn't personally send Diao Chan to the infirmary, he kept silent.
"No matter what, you don't want to like me, do you?"

Diao Chan's desperate words and teary eyes appeared in Sima Yi's mind, and he subconsciously clenched his fists. Against the backdrop of the bright moonlight, his face looked extraordinarily pale. His thin body trembled slightly, as if falling It will fall down in a second.
"Don't tell anyone about this."

What a smart person Zhuge Liang is, he could see the clue from Sima Yi's unusual behavior. But he didn't point it out, he just spoke indifferently.
"Well. I see."

The next day Diao Chan decided to abandon all distracting thoughts and start over again, but when she came to the class, she subconsciously glanced back. It was empty. Sima Yi’s seat was empty. It stands to reason that a good student like Sima Yi would always arrive at school very early , but now he didn’t even come to self-study, so something must have happened.
Diao Chan persuaded herself not to meddle in other people's business, but her heart was still aching. She said she didn't care about Sima Yi, but she knew in her heart that she would never forget him after all. She quietly slipped out the back door and arrived at the door of the next class. She met Zhuge Liang who came out to fetch water. She hesitated for a while, and blocked Zhuge Liang's way.
"Do you know why Sima Yi didn't come to school...?"

Zhuge Liang was taken aback by the question. This is not surprising, anyone would be puzzled by asking such an abrupt question without even saying hello. But he quickly came back to his senses and pressed his lips together tightly. He thought that if he didn't speak, Diao Chan would retreat in spite of the difficulties. But he didn't expect Diao Chan to be so quietly waiting for him to speak. He had no choice but to betray Sima Yi, revealing the secret that only he and Sima Yi knew .
"Zhongda is not in good health. He is always sick every day. There are many ways to get sick. He rejects you purely because he doesn't want to cause you trouble, and he doesn't want you to spend the rest of his life with him. He jumped over the wall yesterday. I went to buy polenta for you, but the coat was torn by the fence. He simply didn’t wear the coat. As a result, he caught a cold and had a fever, and went to the hospital for drips.”

Diao Chan was stunned, she didn't expect the truth of the matter to be like this. She didn't expect that Sima Yi, who looked cold, would be so caring for her. Crystal tears filled her eyes and slipped down uncontrollably.
"So, the rumor in school that he likes you is also fake."

She tried to keep her tone as calm as possible, not showing a surprised expression.
"He is in the hospital not far from the school, 10 minutes by taxi
