After rebirth, the leader only wants to be with the shadow guard

The cabin is not disturbed by the wind and is much warmer.

Once the two doors were closed and only the small windows on both sides were open, the noisy sounds outside became much quieter.

The furniture inside was similar to that of a small hall in a mansion, with everything available. If it weren't for the occasional bumps while sailing, one would have thought they were on land.

On the dining table, red charcoal was burning in a special copper stove, with a copper pot placed on top. A delicious aroma emanated from the pot.

As Ying Shiyi came in, he smelled the fragrant aroma and glanced at Lou Jingyu, as if asking him what it was.

Lou Jingyu untied his cloak and explained to him without keeping him in suspense: "Let's have something special today - antique soup."

The milky white soup in the copper pot is made from bones. Ying Shiyi has a bad stomach and can't eat spicy food, so she made bone soup base.

The ingredients were placed around the copper pot on the table.

There were three plates of freshly cut beef and mutton, with beautiful colors and textures. Ying Shiyi didn't like fatty meat, so he ate mostly lean meat.

A few plates of green vegetables, a plate of bamboo shoots, a plate of mushroom platter and a plate of tofu.

Ying Shiyi passed by such a store during his mission, but he always ate out for convenience and speed. Eating this thing took too much time. He had never eaten it before and didn't know how to use chopsticks.

"Are you hungry?" Lou Jingyu asked him at the right time.

Ying Shiyi touched his stomach. He was not hungry at first, but when he smelled the fragrance of the bone soup, he felt a little hungry.

"I'm a little hungry." The answer was very honest.

Lou Jingyu chuckled, and first poured a bowl of bone soup from the bubbling pot to Ying Shiyi, letting him drink it first. Then he started putting the meat into the pot, scooped out a plate, and then started adding the vegetables.

He pushed a plate of hot pot meat in front of Ying Shiyi and gave him the dipping sauce as well.

"Try to eat the meat with the dipping sauce and see if it tastes good."

Ying Shiyi took a bite as he asked, and the delicious taste of mutton and the dipping sauce complemented each other perfectly. It was really tasty while it was hot in the mouth.

His eyes narrowed.

"Ayu eats too."

He also fed Lou Jingyu a mouthful.

"Yeah, it's delicious." Lou Jingyu said with a smile.

Lou Jingyu didn't need to eat the rest himself. Ying Shiyi fed him a bite and then he ate a bite himself.

Ying Shiyi learns quickly, so Lou Jingyu doesn't need to help him serve dishes anymore.

He prepared the meat and dishes by himself, not letting Lou Jingyu touch anything, and became a busy little bee.

"Ayu, you need to eat more."

"Okay, okay, thank you Eleven."

Lou Jingyu laughed and had to let him do it.

They waited until he had put all the meat into the pot before catching him back, put the long serving chopsticks in his hand aside, and fed him two pieces of meat.

Ying Shiyi felt embarrassed, so he picked up the chopsticks and held the bowl to eat.

Although Lou Jingyu lost the opportunity to feed the baby, the smile on his face never faded. His eyes kept lingering on Ying Shiyi from time to time, and he enjoyed the meal very much.

After the meal, the servants cleared away the tableware and served scented tea, snacks and fruits.

Ying Shiyi only drank the tea. He felt that he didn't eat much just now, but when he came to his senses, he seemed to realize that he was too full.

But it's really delicious. It's really comfortable to eat some steaming hot food in this kind of weather.

Seeing that he was full, Lou Jingyu was afraid that he was really full, so he stuffed a hawthorn pill into his mouth.

Hawthorn pills are sour and sweet.

As soon as Ying Shiyi tasted it, he knew that this was the one that Duan Chunhui sent to Canglan Palace.

"Ayu, why do you still carry the hawthorn pills with you?" he asked.

Lou Jingyu tapped his nose and said, "In order to prevent you from not wanting to eat or being too full, I brought one with me. Now I'm using it."

Ying Shiyi smiled embarrassedly and leaned into his arms.

After he finished eating the hawthorn pills, Lou Jingyu peeled a few sour pomegranates for him. They didn't take up too much space in his stomach, and the sour taste was very refreshing.

Lou Jingyu drank two cups of scented tea and sat and talked with him for a while.

When the time was almost right, he took Ying Shiyi to the deck again.

The moon is dim tonight, the night is pitch black, and the outline of the distant mountains is no longer so clear. Most of the fishing boats have already docked, and only a few pleasure boats are floating on the lake.

Ying Eleven glanced at the shore and realized that their boat had reached the center of the lake.

He felt that the scenery in the distance seemed a little unusual.

To the north and east of Tingyan Lake are towering green mountains, and to the south are private residences of officials and lakeside buildings for distinguished guests. Lou Jingyu and Gu Yezhou had discussed matters here before. Both are quiet places.

The west side is surrounded by a circle of tall red buildings, including hotels, teahouses, taverns, singing houses, gambling houses, bookstores and various shops.

This has always been a popular place for people in Beijing to hang out. People from all walks of life and the dignitaries in Beijing would mingle on the same street regardless of the occasion.

At night, when the darkness falls completely, you can see the bright lights of the distant buildings on Tingyan Lake. From the open windows and the unobstructed terraces of the high buildings, you can also see people toasting each other.

The lights in the tall buildings are as bright as day. Looking from the lake, you can see a bright area. It is indeed a prosperous scene and very lively.

But today, it was dark in the distance, pitch black, and the outline of the building could not be seen.

Ying Shiyi lowered his eyes slightly. The lights on the boat cast the shadow of his long eyelashes under his eyes. The orange-yellow light made the few strands of hair on his temples look so gentle.

He turned around to look for Lou Jingyu, pointed at the darkness in the distance and said to him: "Ayu, look."

Lou Jingyu looked in the direction where his finger pointed, but did not find it strange. He just smiled and held the hand he extended.

"We are very careful."

He hugged Ying Shiyi from behind. It was a perfectly fitting hug. His broad shoulders pressed Ying Shiyi completely into his arms. From behind, he could only see the top of Ying Shiyi's head and the ponytail tied up by the jade crown.

With his chest pressed against his back, Lou Jingyu's strong arms were around him, holding Ying Shiyi's hand on his waist.

Lou Jingyu asked: "Then do you know why those buildings don't turn on the lights tonight?"

Ying Shiyi thought about it, and seeing that Lou Jingyu seemed confident about the situation, he knew that it was not dangerous.

So he guessed, "The government won't let them open the door today?"

After all, there are so many shops on the shore. It would be fine if one shop had no customers or was closed for holiday, but there are hundreds of shops, including some well-known restaurants. How could they all close at the same time by such a coincidence?

It is more likely that only if something goes wrong and the government intervenes, they will be forced to close down.

Lou Jingyu chuckled softly, and his deep, magnetic voice rang in Ying Shiyi's ears, making Ying Shiyi feel his ears numb.

"Eleven is smart, but not for this reason."

"Why is that?" Ying Shiyi couldn't figure it out.

Lou Jingyu reminded him: "It's dark, maybe it's still open for business."

Ying Shiyi was puzzled: "How can we open the store with the lights off? I guess customers won't come in."

Lou Jingyu was touched by his genuine doubt and kissed him on the back of his neck.

"They only have one guest tonight, and they will only light the lights for one guest." Lou Jingyu said with a smile.

Ying Shiyi opened his eyes wide, as if he had a premonition, and quickly turned around to look at Lou Jingyu, only to see that Lou Jingyu had a smile on his face.

"Eleven, look ahead." Lou Jingyu said in his ear, holding his face and turning back, holding his hand tightly.

Lou Jingyu waved his hand behind him, and a fire letter shot into the sky.
