It was raining heavily, and Wen Shixing sat up from the bed. The rain was so noisy that he couldn't sleep. He lifted the quilt, walked to the soft couch, and poured himself a cup of tea.

He looked out of the window while drinking, Liu Zonghe probably left.I don't know what kind of psychology it is, but I want to come to Honglian to find myself.

Could it be because of the divorce letter, or because he felt that he ran away in the middle of the night, so he came to ask for an explanation.

After drinking it all, Wen Shixing didn't go back to the bed, but sat on the soft couch, leaning against the bed rail to enjoy the rain scene.

There is a small pond in the yard with several red carp in it, and a wooden swing under a huge banyan tree.

For a long time, he didn't take a good look at the scene like this.Wen Shixing put his hands out of the window sill, and the cool wind blowing on his hands was very pleasant.

Suddenly, a warm palm covered his wrist.

Wen Shixing was startled, and looked up to see Cheng Qinghan whose face was covered with rain.The other party smiled, and then forced his hand back into the window.

"If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, why are you looking for a sick person here?"

After finishing speaking, Cheng Qinghan went around to the front door, walked in from the outside, and lit a candle.He walked to the soft couch with the candlestick in his hand, "Did you drink the medicine today?" Cheng Qinghan said as he took off his drenched coat.

Wen Shixing nodded and poured Cheng Qinghan a cup of tea.

"It's getting cold, I'll ask someone to cook a pot for you." Cheng Qinghan reached out to touch the cup of noodles, and found that it was cold, and was about to call the maid who was watching the night outside, when Wen Shixing reached out to stop him.

"I won't drink." After finishing speaking, Wen Shixing took a clean handkerchief from the shelf and handed it to him.

The candlelight flickered a few times, and Cheng Qinghan's brows had a faint smile, he didn't answer it, but deliberately put his face in front of Wen Shixing.

Knowing what he meant, Wen Shixing shook his head helplessly, following Cheng Qinghan's wishes, and wiped off the rain on his face.

The veil was made of high-quality silk and satin, and it was soft and warm when it covered the face. Cheng Qinghan's eyes were fixed on Wen Shixing's face, and when he was about to finish wiping, he grabbed his wrist.

Wen Shixing avoided his sight, pulled his hand, but did not pull away.

The two remained in a stalemate until Cheng Qinghan laughed softly, and as soon as he let go, Wen Shixing quickly withdrew his hand, bowed his head and did not speak.

"Okay, go to sleep, don't boil it like this." Cheng Qinghan picked up the cup and drank the tea, then got up and took the clothes on the ground casually in his hands.

When he stepped out of the threshold, Wen Shixing struggled for a long time, and finally asked, "Is... is he still at the city gate?"

Cheng Qinghan's figure froze obviously, and the smile hidden in his eyes gradually cooled down. After thinking for a while, he finally said in a calm manner: "Let's go."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Qinghan walked out of the house and closed the door for him.He pinched his clothes with a complicated expression.I lied, but Liu Zonghe was still at the city gate.

This was the first time he lied to Wen Shixing.Cheng Qinghan stood at the door for a long time before rushing out of the courtyard in the rain.

Wen Shixing by the window looked at the candle, wondering what was going on in his mind.Finally, he got up and blew out the candle, and went back to bed.

The next day, Cheng Qinghan arrived at the city gate early.It rained all night and the road was muddy.He stepped on the mud under his feet on the tower, and his eyes fell on Liu Zonghe who was still standing upright not far away.

This man can still stand.

"General Cheng, one night has passed, and the young city lord is still in the same posture, do you want to go and have a look?" the attendant next to him reminded.

After stepping on the mud, Cheng Qinghan clicked his tongue, thinking that he lied yesterday, he felt guilty all night, so let's go and see what's going on.

Holding an oil umbrella, he walked slowly to Liu Zonghe, only to find that he was in a mess.Now it was only raining lightly, the mud stains on his face and body formed marks, his hair was soaked and knotted, his face was ashen-like green, and he didn't have the usual expensive attire at all.

"I didn't expect you to consume so much energy." Cheng Qinghan walked around him, his appearance could be called a beggar.

In order to meet Wen Shixing, does the play need to be so realistic?

"As long as you say what you say..." Liu Zonghe said in a low voice without looking sideways.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to wait." Cheng Qinghan stared behind Liu Zonghe and said meaningfully.

Sensing that there was something in Cheng Qinghan's words, Liu Zonghe looked at him, turned around with some doubts in his eyes, and the Lord Yunfeng and his wife came unexpectedly!

Liu Zonghe's face changed, he didn't expect the two elders to come.He clenched his fists, turned away his face and continued to stand upright.

Mrs. Yunfeng almost ran over, with tears in her eyes, bumping her head into her son's arms, "How did you become like this!"

Seeing her son like this, she felt very distressed, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the stains on Liu Zonghe's face.

However, Liu Zonghe didn't say a word, and he didn't want to lower his head.The face of Yunfeng City Lord was pulled down, and he stood not far away and roared: "Go back quickly! Don't embarrass yourself here!"

Liu Zonghe turned a deaf ear and remained expressionless.

City Lord Yunfeng was also stubborn, but refused to approach him.Liu Zonghe's embarrassing behavior at this city gate has already spread throughout Yunfeng.At first, the city lord was unwilling to arrest Liu Zonghe and go back. If his wife hadn't pleaded hard, coupled with gossip, he wouldn't want to bother with this useless thing at all.

On the side, Cheng Qinghan crossed his arms, silently watching the affectionate appearance of the family of three.The attendant in the distance behind him came on horseback, Cheng Qinghan turned his head.

"The Lord of Red Lotus welcomes you."

News so fast?Cheng Qinghan glanced at City Master Yunfeng's distraught look, it seems that he should have greeted him in advance.

Face is still important, Cheng Qinghan gave them a way, "Let's talk at Honglian Mansion."

Liu Zonghe's eyes suddenly had some vitality, and a smile appeared on his stiff face.Seeing her son like this, the madam felt extremely uncomfortable, "Okay, okay, you can see the stars now."

Although he was reluctant, Cheng Qinghan still brought the three of them to Honglian Mansion.

According to the truth, there are many rules for the two cities to meet each other.The city lord and his wife were supposed to welcome them in front of the gate of Honglian Mansion, but there was nothing when they arrived.

City Lord Yunfeng cleared his throat in a low voice, the expression on his face was unclear.Cheng Qinghan naturally knew what it meant, so he didn't explain it.

It was not until reaching the hall that City Master Yunfeng saw the master of the mansion.

City Lord Honglian looked leisurely. He took a sip of tea without raising his eyelids, and he didn't order anyone to pour tea or take a seat.

Liu Zonghe looked around, except for the maid and the city lord, there was no one else.He immediately asked anxiously, "Where's Shi Xing?"

After finishing speaking, City Lord Honglian suddenly slammed the teacup heavily on the table and sneered, "I haven't had time to welcome the distinguished guests, but I hope City Lord Yunfeng doesn't mind."

City Master Yunfeng smiled but did not smile, bowed and said: "City Master Honglian is relatively busy, everyone knows it, so why blame him?"

"It's just..." City Master Yunfeng paused, "My son stood in front of your city for a day and a night, and he didn't invite him into the city. I don't know what your city means?"

"I'm the one who wants to stand!" Liu Zonghe just interrupted his father, when City Master Yunfeng glared at him angrily, warning him to shut up.

"I was reckless. I didn't get the invitation letter and shield, so I asked for an audience outside the city without authorization. Moreover, the soldiers didn't know my identity, so it was reasonable." Liu Zonghe ignored his father's pull, and bowed to the Red Lotus City Lord to make amends.

"So, why are you here?" City Lord Honglian didn't want to hear these words, so he lightly skipped the string of words.

Liu Zonghe fell into deep thought, he couldn't directly tell the city lord what he thought about his father, otherwise it would cause trouble and it would be out of control at that time.

"I... want to meet Shi Xing."

"He hasn't woken up yet, he's inconvenient, and he's drowsy. Let's talk about it another day." Behind him, Mrs. Honglian suddenly appeared.

Everyone turned their heads and saw her standing not far away. After saying this lightly, they walked through the corridor to the side of City Lord Honglian.

Liu Zonghe knew it was an excuse, so he bit his bullet and said: "Then I'll wait for him outside the house, just meet him once!"

"At this moment, mood swings can easily affect his health, so let's wait another day." Mrs. Honglian's tone was incontrovertible.

Seeing her son begging like this, Mrs. Yunfeng couldn't help but speak for him, "Let them meet, for the sake of our friendship."

Liu Zonghe looked at his mother, and a trace of emotion flashed across his eyes.He wanted to rely on himself to fight to the end in exchange for a chance to see Wen Shixing, but he didn't want his mother to come forward.

City Master Yunfeng snorted coldly, turned his head away, and felt that the mother and son had no face at all.In his heart, Honglian should have listened to his family, but he didn't know the situation today.

In fact, he has been paying attention to Honglian for a long time. Because of Cheng Qinghan, he has never really touched Honglian.

Looking at it now, this red lotus is really arrogant and doesn't show any affection at all.

Mrs. Honglian raised her eyebrows slightly, friendship?Your son has caused our family Shixing to suffer so much, can a friendship be wiped away?If you really think about friendship, what were you doing when Shi Xing was suffering in your house?

Although she had some complaints in her heart, Mrs. Honglian still had a sombre face, no matter what, Yunfeng did help Honglian before.Although it was announced to the outside world as a world friendship, in fact it was broken in their generation long ago.

The connection between the two cities is nothing more than an exchange of interests. If it weren't for this marriage, it wouldn't really be called friendship.

"Forget it, Qinghan, you take this young city lord to the Star Room." Madam Honglian said, Cheng Qinghan frowned, wanting to say something.

She said again: "By the way, watch Shi Xing, don't let him get angry."

What he said made Yunfeng City Lord and his wife feel very uncomfortable, but Liu Zonghe didn't care, he couldn't help being happy, and kept up with the reluctant Cheng Qinghan.

"It's friendship, Ma'am, please don't talk about it in the future. The last time you and I met was more than ten years ago, right? In the past, we probably saw less." Mrs. Honglian can say these scenes better than the city lord, and the connotation in it is impressive. Even if the patient is uncomfortable, it is not easy to attack.

Just as there was a stalemate, City Lord Honglian raised his head and laughed, got up and gestured to the seat beside him.

"I was so busy talking, I forgot to ask everyone to sit down. Come, please."

The two of Yunfeng looked at each other in blank dismay, but kept calm on their faces.After being seated, the city lord ordered the maid to pour tea.

"I'm really sorry, this tea was brewed before you just arrived, and it's not very hot. With our friendship, you shouldn't mind, right?"

After finishing speaking, without expecting to get an answer, City Lord Honglian turned around and sat back on the chair.

The faces of Yunfeng City Lord and his wife turned white and red, and the tea in their hands was cool.
