The next day, both Fu Peibai and Lu Yanran tacitly did not mention what happened last night, and they sat silently in the lobby of the inn drinking porridge.

Afu felt that the atmosphere on the table was a bit strange, she glanced at Fu Peibai and asked, "Xiaobai, what happened?"

Fu Peibai gave the hand holding the pickles a meal, and said, "It's all right."

"It's fine, we're going to rest in Xingyang City for a day, and we'll set off tomorrow. Today's weather is bright and refreshing. If you don't have any plans, come with us to swim in the lake?"

"You guys go, I'll go see my friends later, I drank too much last night, I'll go see how they are doing."

"OK then."

Fu Peibai held the porridge bowl and drank it a few times. After wiping his mouth, he said quickly: "Peak Master, Sister Afu, Brother Xing, I'm done eating. You all eat slowly. I'll go first." Without waiting for everyone's reaction, he left the inn.

Afu was about to put a spoonful of porridge into her mouth when she stopped and looked at the door of the inn.

"Xiaobai, what's the matter?"

Lu Yanran looked calm, "Let's eat."

After Fu Peibai left the inn, she breathed a sigh of relief. She woke up this morning, and what happened last night suddenly came to her mind like a torrent. She looked at her hand, and couldn't believe how dare she touched it. The face of the peak master.

She stood outside the inn and sighed heavily, then raised her legs and walked towards old man Wen's yard.

When she arrived, as expected, the two were still asleep with their heads covered. She put the biscuits she bought on the way on the table, and the smell of hot biscuits soon permeated the whole room.

Ding Yi was the first to wake up smelling the aroma. Looking at the big meat-stuffed biscuits on the table, he couldn't help twitching his index finger, and started to eat the biscuits without washing his face.

After a while, the old man Wen also woke up leisurely. He hadn't drunk so much for many years, but the hangover was really bad, and right now his head hurts a lot.

Seeing that he was not feeling well, Fu Peibai walked over with a hot pancake.

"Uncle Wen, eat cakes, I'll make you some hangover tea."

"Okay, thanks, Xiaobai."

Fu Peibai went to the courtyard, chopped firewood and lit the fire familiarly, made tea and brought it back to the house.

Ding Yi was impatient, took it in a hurry, and put it down hastily as soon as he touched his mouth, shouting: "Hot, hot, hot."

The old man calmed down a lot after Wen Wen, and after blowing for a few mouthfuls, he took a sip of hot tea slowly, feeling much better all over.

"Xiaobai, what are your plans for today?"

Fu Peibai was about to say no, but when the words came to his lips, he thought of something, and said, "I think I lived in Xingyang City for more than half a month, but I haven't visited this city well. I heard that there is an artificial lake in the city with beautiful scenery. , how about the three of us go for a walk together?"

Ding Yi clicked his tongue, "Isn't that place just a pool of water, what's so interesting about it, and renting a boat there is very expensive, so that's the amount you need," he said, making gestures with an exaggerated expression on his face.

"We don't need to take a boat, we can just take a walk by the lake, what do you think, Uncle Wen?"

The old man Wen waved his hand, "The place is a good place, but the old man is not feeling well today, so I won't go with you young people, you two go."

In fact, Ding Yi didn't want to go there either. Apart from some literati and scholars, those who often went to that place were the sons and daughters of aristocratic families. He couldn't get used to these two types of people who put on airs the most.

"I don't want to go either, Xiaobai, go by yourself."

Fu Peibai smiled, "How about accompanying me and I'll treat you to Wangniang crispy chicken from the south of the city?"

Ding Yi's eyes moved, "Okay!"

The two agreed, and they were about to set off. Before leaving, Fu Peibai thought of something, pushed Ding Yi to let him take a bath, then asked him to change into clean clothes, looked him over carefully, After confirming that his appearance was clean, he took him to the man-made lake in the city.

This lake is called Muxian Lake. It is not big, but it is not easy to create such an oasis in the northwest region. Naturally, it has become the first choice for the aristocrats in the city to travel.

Today coincides with the clear sky and clear sky, which is a good day for an outing. At this moment, there are many painting boats gathered on the lake, some big and some small, and all kinds of string sounds are coming from the boats.

Ding Yi followed Fu Peibai, walked bored, and yawned, "Xiaobai, how long do we have to walk, this lake is so big, you can see the end at a glance, after seeing it, let's go to the south of the city to buy pastries. "

Fu Peibai glanced at the boats on the lake, as if searching for something, and said, "No rush."

The two of them just walked around the lake. Seeing that Fu Peibai was about to walk a second time, Ding Yi quit and went directly to a stone chair and sat down.

"No, no, no, I'm exhausted, what's so good about this lake?"

Fu Peibai pulled him up, with an apologetic smile on his face, "One more lap, one last lap."

When the two were about to reach the origin again, Fu Peibai finally heard a "Xiaobai" not far from the lake.

She quickly stopped and looked around, and saw Afu standing on the side of the boat and waving to her, and she waved her arms and shouted back: "Sister Afu!"

The boat sailed over quickly, and Afu lay on the eaves of the boat with a smile on her face, "Xiaobai, why are you here? Didn't you go to see your friend?"

Fu Peibai pulled Ding Yi over and introduced him: "Here, he is here. There is another old man who is not in good health and is resting at home."

Ding Yi looked at the smiling woman on the boat, his face turned red suddenly, and he stammered greetings, "I...my name is Ding Yi."

"It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Ye Fu. Since I'm Xiaobai's friend, just call me Sister Afu just like him. Come up and swim in the lake together."

Fu Peibai took the lead to climb up the soft ladder hanging from the painting boat, and when he went up, he saw that Xing Guang was also there.

"Brother Xing."

Xing Guang hummed, still with a stern look on his face.

Fu Peibai looked around, but found no familiar figure on the board, and then her eyes fell on the cabin with the curtains hanging down. She asked Afu in a low voice, "Is the peak master in there?"

"here I am."

Fu Peibai was hesitant to go in, but just as he stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, the curtain was lifted by the people in the cabin.

Lu Yanran and Fu Peibai met face to face.

"Peak Master..." Fu Peibai muttered.

Lu Yanran didn't look at her, but looked at Ding Yi.

"your friend?"

"Well, he is the Ding Yi I told you about." As soon as he said this, Fu Peibai couldn't help but think of his words and actions last night, frowned, and cursed himself hard in his heart.

Ding Yi had just climbed onto the boat, and when he met Lu Yanran, he was stunned again. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his age, let alone seeing two of them a day, and forgot to say hello for a while.

Seeing his impoliteness, Fu Peibai hurried over to bump him with his elbow, and said in a low voice, "This is the peak master of Chaoquan Peak of Tianji Sect, please say hello."

Ding [-] oh, came back to his senses, bowed and saluted pretendingly, "Ding Yi, I have met, I have seen... the peak master", he is not very familiar with such polite people. Greeting, the mouth is a little vague, and the face is very embarrassed.

Lu Yanran said flatly: "You are not from my clan, so you don't need to call me Peak Master, my surname is Lu, just call me Miss Lu."

"See, I met Miss Lu."

Lu Yanran hummed and walked to the front of the boat.

Afu laughed out loud, and joked, "Xiaobai, isn't your friend stuttering, why is he always slurring his words?"

Ding Yi's ears were blushing, he lowered his head in shame, he didn't look as foolish as usual.

"No, I'm probably a little nervous," Fu Peibai explained.

"Why are you nervous, we don't know how to eat people, little brother, don't be nervous, do you want some pastries?"

Ding Yi raised his head, looked at Afu's charming smiling face, and nodded in a daze.

Afu asked Fu Peibai again, "Xiaobai, do you want to eat?"

Fu Peibai shook his head, staring at the white figure at the bow from the corner of his eye.

After Afu took Ding Yi to eat cakes in the cabin, Fu Peibai moved, first two steps, casually walked to the side of the boat, enjoying the scenery in the lake, then two steps, moved to the left, stood still, Looking left and right, as if looking at the scenery, she walked over with the last two steps, and she finally got her wish and stood beside Lu Yanran.

There are white clouds above the head, green and rippling lake water under the feet, and willow leaves fluttering on the shore. All the scenes make people feel comfortable physically and mentally, but Fu Peibai is holding her heart tightly. She can only vaguely recall what happened last night. Probably, there are still some scattered fragments, she can't remember them alive, so she is very afraid whether she did something more out of bounds than touching her face last night by drinking, or accidentally poured out her heart, and now she wants to Take the opportunity to find out what the peak master is saying.

She glanced at Lu Yanran's indifferent profile, and said, "Peak Master, I was drunk last night."

Lu Yanran hummed lightly.

Seeing the other party's reaction, Fu Peibai became more nervous, swallowed, and continued: "I didn't do anything unforgivable to the Peak Master, did I?"

Only now did Lu Yanran turn his head around, and asked calmly, "What do you mean by unforgivable?"

Fu Peibai didn't dare to meet her eyes, stared at the lake, and said casually: "Did you offend the Peak Master unintentionally, or did you say something that shouldn't be said?"

"Have."

Fu Peibai's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he grabbed the side of the boat tightly with his hands, and asked dryly, "What is it?"

Lu Yanran hooked the corners of his lips and smiled, "It seems that you are really drunk."

"I'm sorry...Peak Master, I won't drink so much again." After Fu Peibai finished speaking, he wanted to ask more about what happened last night, "Then what did I do, Peak Master? What did you say?"

"Go for yourself."

After Lu Yanran finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the cabin. Soon Ding Yi ran out and stood next to Fu Peibai. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xiaobai, your peak master looks so scary, I dare not even look at her." .”

"But that Afu girl is so gentle, she poured me tea with her own hands, and even chatted with me about interesting things on your peak, she doesn't dislike me at all." After finishing speaking, Ding Yi smiled shyly.

Fu Peibai was a little absent-minded, his heart was flustered, and Ding Yi was perfunctory.

After the sunset, all the people got off the boat, Ding Yi didn't dare to say hello to Lu Yanran, he quietly told Fu Peibai to leave first, and then he walked away in smoke.

After Fu Peibai returned to the inn, she couldn't eat well, and couldn't sleep. Lu Yanran's words about going by herself really made her rack her brains.

She was lying on the couch, tossing and turning, thinking about what happened last night. She first came back from the street, then met the peak master on the stairs of the inn, and then the peak master helped herself back to the room, and then there was a short memory Blank, and then she introduced Ding Yi and old man Wen to the peak master, and then she couldn't remember it, and then she touched her face in horror when she recalled it, and then it was blank.

She hammered the bed board, making a thumping sound, and then driven by an impulse, she put on her coat, came to Lu Yanran's room, and knocked on the door.

There was no movement inside for a long time, Fu Peibai had calmed down now, and regretted the act of disturbing the peak owner in the middle of the night, just as he was about to turn around and leave, the door creaked open.

Lu Yanran in the room looked tired and glanced at Fu Peibai.

"Come in."

Fu Peibai was stunned for a moment, then he straddled his legs and entered the room.

Lu Yanran sat at the table with her chin propped up in unlined clothes, her voice revealing exhaustion, "What's the matter?"

Fu Peibai really regretted her impulsive behavior now. She remembered that Afu said that the peak master had a light sleep, and now seeing Lu Yanran's tired face, she knew that she had disturbed the other party's sleep, and said embarrassingly: "Sorry, peak master, I I disturbed your rest, you go to sleep, I will find you tomorrow morning."

"I've already been woken up by you, and I can't fall asleep now, so I'll talk about it if I have something to say."

Looking at Lu Yanran's tired face under the dim candlelight, Fu Peibai felt distressed and blamed himself, "Hey, I really..."

Lu Yanran frowned. When she was about to leave last night, the person on the bed turned around and grabbed her hand so tightly that it hurt so much that she couldn't pull it out. She looked at the other person again. She looked so pitiful, so she took advantage of the opportunity and sat on the side of the couch.

As a result, Fu Peibai clutched his hands and sat for several hours. After returning home, he fell asleep and couldn't fall asleep. He originally planned to go on a cruise during the day to consume a little energy. After tonight, he can have a good rest and fall asleep. This person came to disturb her again, which was really annoying.

"Don't be hesitant, just speak up if you have something to say, and leave if you have nothing to do."

Seeing that Lu Yanran was a little impatient, Fu Peibai had no choice but to muster up the courage to say: "I... just want to apologize to the Peak Master for something that happened after I was drunk last night. If I behaved out of line last night, or I said something that shouldn't be said, and I hope the peak master will forgive me, no matter what I say is nonsense, you must not take it to heart." The more she said, her head lowered, as if she had made a mistake and was waiting to be trained look like.

Lu Yanran was so angry that he laughed back, it was the same on the boat, and it is still the same now, so this person is just worried about what happened last night.

Really stubborn enough.

Her eyes fell lightly on Fu Peibai, and said lightly: "Then tell yourself, how should you be punished?"

"But it's up to the peak master to punish."

Lu Yanran narrowed her eyes, "I remember you already owe me a punishment."

Fu Peibai hummed hesitantly.

"Then it's still owed," Lu Yanran said calmly, got up and walked back to the couch.

Fu Peibai got up hastily, and said solemnly: "Okay, the peak master can ask for it back whenever he wants."

The door finally closed slowly when Fu Peibai exited the room. When the door was closed, she looked at the slender back of the woman on the couch with nostalgia, and her restless heart finally calmed down.
