Ji Zhao smiled and hugged Zhao Lanhua’s arm. Her tone was filled with coquettishness. ‘Mother, don’t worry. Shen Yao and I are fine!”
“Mm.” Zhao Lanhua nodded vigorously. “But Third Brother, that punk, almost angered your father and I to death!”
When they heard Shen Yao’s idea to divorce Ah Tao, they were really about to explode from anger!
“Mother, I’ve already prepared all the ingredients. We can start eating now!” Following Zhao Lanhua’s shout, the family arrived at the central room.
In the pitch- black night sky, there were a few stars flickering.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the Shen family’s hall was extremely harmonious.
“Master, this is the Mandarin Duck Hot Pot.” Ji Zhao stood up and introduced with a smile, ‘This milky-white soup has a light soup base. I specially added some mushrooms into it, so the taste will be better. On the other side, it is red soup with beef tallow as the base, so it will become more fragrant the more it’s cooked.’
“Don’t just stand there. Hurry up and move your chopsticks!” The Immortal Crane could not wait to pick up his chopsticks. Looking at the bubbling soup base, he could not help but swallow his saliva.
“The tripe, beef slices, and fishballs have just been put in. They can only be tasted later.” Ji Zhao pushed the fried crispy pork in front of Immortal Crane. “Master, why don’t you try this salt and pepper crispy pork first?’
“Alright!’
The Shen family’s hotpot meal only ended at the end of the night.
The men of the Shen family who had drunk a lot with Immortal Crane were defeated one after another.
Ji Zhao rested her chin on her hands and looked at Immortal Crane with admiration. “Master, your alcohol tolerance is too good, isn’t it?”
The Immortal Crane had single-handedly defeated all the men from the Shen family.
Except for Shen Yao, because he was explicitly forbidden from drinking.
“Of course, your master can drink thousand cups before getting..
THUD!
Before he could say the word ‘drunk’, Immortal Crane fell to the ground.
“Father specially took out the Green Bamboo Leaf Wine that he had kept for many years tonight.” Shen Yao chuckled and said, “Although the taste of the Green Bamboo Leaf Wine is mellow and sweet, its aftereffects are extremely strong. Senior drank three small jars before getting drunk. It’s already a huge amount. ‘
‘What about you? Why aren’t you drunk?” Ji Zhao tilted her head and looked at him with a smile.
Her smile was as bright as the sunset and as bright as spring. The dimples on both sides of her lips were especially sweet.
“Ah Tao.” Shen Yao suddenly could not hold back the desire in his heart. He suddenly closed in on her, locking her lips forcefully.
Then, he went straight to the point and plundered wantonly.
Unlike the spring breeze and drizzle in the past, Shen Yao was exceptionally enthusiastic tonight.
Ji Zhao could not help but get absorbed.
Fifteen minutes later, the two of them were panting as they intimately pressed against each other’s cheeks.
Shen Yao suddenly reached out and ruffled her already messy hair. He lowered his voice and said, “Ah Tao, you’re really beautiful.”
He couldn’t wait to eat her up—
The breeze made the wooden door creak, and Ji Zhao’s rationality returned.
“That…” Ji Zhao reached out her right index finger and gently poked his chest. She asked softly, “Shen Yao, why don’t you send Master back to the guest room first? I’ll wait for you in the room… Is that okay?”
” Okay.” Shen Yao understood the expression in her eyes and could not hide the excitement in his eyes. ‘Then go back to our room and wait for me.”
‘Well
Ji Zhao hurriedly crawled out of his arms and turned around to return to the room.
After drinking two cups of herbal tea in a row, the temperature on her face still did not drop.
She—
—was not against further development with Shen Yao. After all, they had almost consummated their marriage previously.
However, there was always a difference between theory and practice.
The more Ji Zhao thought about it, the more shy she became. The temperature on her face rose instead of decreasing.
After all, this was their first time together. Ji Zhao felt that she should prepare more grandly.
She immediately opened the closet and began to pick and choose— On the other side.
Shen Yao supported Immortal Crane back to the guest room.
Feeling the pressure on his shoulders getting heavier, Shen Yao raised his eyebrows slightly and did not say anything.
The Immortal Crane, who was already sober, refused to let him go. He deliberately pressed all his weight on his shoulders.
However, Shen Yao did not say a word. He helped him to the bed and thoughtfully served him a cup of hot tea.
“Senior, why don’t you have a cup of tea? This way, you can sober up faster.”
Immortal Crane could not be bothered to pretend to be drunk anymore. He immediately opened his eyes and sized up Shen Yao.
“Senior has something to say?”
“Yes.” The Immortal Crane slowly picked up the cup of hot tea and took a sip.
Then, he said indifferently, “You’re not worthy of my good disciple.”
“The Great Jing Dynasty values rules very much. Since my good disciple has taken me as her master, I have to say a few words,” the Immortal Crane said very honestly. “The current you doesn’t have any merits, but you’re already facing ambushes on all sides. Although my good disciple’s luck is extremely exuberant, no one can guarantee that your bad luck won’t affect her.”
The more Immortal Crane spoke, the more he felt indignant for Ji Zhao. If only he could’ve met his good disciple earlier. He would definitely not agree to this marriage.
Unfortunately, everything was predestined!
“Senior is sincerely thinking for Ah Tao. I can understand this.” A faint smile appeared on Shen Yao’s face, and his tone was as gentle as ever. “It’s just that I and Ah Tao are truly in love and have already communicated our feelings.”
“Of course, I also know that my current situation is not safe, but I can swear that I will always protect Ah Tao.”
“A person who can’t even protect his own life dares to spout nonsense?”
Immortal Crane glared at him in annoyance. “I’m not blind. I can tell how deep my disciple’s feelings for you are!”
“As the saying goes, it’s better to tear down a temple than a marriage.” Immortal Crane looked into his eyes and said in a deep voice, “Seeing that you’re my good disciple’s husband, there’s something I won’t hide from you. However, with your intelligence, youVe probably guessed it, right?”
“The last time Senior appeared, you cured my leg disease. This time, you helped me cure the parasitic poison.” Shen Yao met the Immortal Crane’s scrutinizing gaze, neither servile nor overbearing, and said softly, ‘There has never been a favor in this world for no reason.’
Immortal Crane couldn’t help but look up at him.
Shen Yao was indeed smart.
No wonder that master had risked his life to ask him to come all the way here to help him.
“This old man has indeed been entrusted by someone to come to Dingyuan County. But since you know what you’re doing, this old man won’t say anything more.” The Immortal Crane suddenly curled his lips, and his shrewd eyes suddenly became fierce and fierce.. “If you dare to treat my good disciple badly in the future, this old man will poison you to death without anyone knowing!
Do you understand?”
