Chapter 160: Fuda's Sorrow

For dinner, Chen Shiyi reserved a private room at Shiweitian restaurant across the street.

The breeze blows gently and the sky is filled with red clouds.

Chen Shiyi leaned against the window sill of the second-floor compartment, quietly watching the sunset.

Pei Luoshu walked behind her and asked softly.

"What are you thinking about?"

Chen Shiyi turned around and smiled.

"I'm thinking today's a good day."

Pei Luoshu's eyes were bright.

"The dishes are all here, everyone is waiting for you."

Yuan Xi looked at Pei Luoshu with a smile, just like a mother-in-law meeting her son-in-law.

"Mr. Pei, where do you live, how old are you, and how many brothers and sisters do you have?"

Pei Luoshu was talking to Chen Shiyi when he suddenly heard Yuan Xi's question and didn't know how to respond.

Chen Shiyi scooped a bowl of fragrant mushroom and chicken soup and handed it to Yuanxi.

"Eat more good food to keep yourself healthy, and don't worry about anything else."

Yuanxi smiled.

"Look, sister, you haven't done anything yet, but you've already started to turn your elbows outward."

Bai Ling glanced at everyone at the table.

"Yuanxi, have you thought of a name for your child?"

Xin Fangyun answered the call.

"I've thought of a few nicknames, and I'll ask the elders in the tribe to name the child according to his generation."

Bo Yuan, who was eating at the side, accidentally dropped the chopsticks in his hand to the ground. When he bent down to pick them up, he found that Fu Da, who was sitting next to him, clenched his fists and his knuckles were cracking.

This was a sign of Fukuda's wrath.

What's wrong?

Pei Luoshu added some tender fish to Chen Shiyi's bowl, then said to Yuan Xi with a smile.

"I will live wherever Eleven lives in the future. I am two years older than Eleven, and I am the only one at home now."

When he reached out to pick up some food again, the plate was taken away by Fu Da.

The people at the table were shocked and didn't know what Fuda was going to do.

Pei Luoshu didn't seem to mind at all. He just used his chopsticks to pick up food from another plate, which was still brought over by Fu Da.

Now, everyone with a discerning eye knows that Fuda is targeting Pei Luoshu.

Chen Shiyi didn't understand what this meant. He looked up at Fu Da and then turned to look at Pei Luoshu.

He showed no sign of anger at all. He took out a thin ebony box from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Fu Da.

Now Chen Shiyi was even more confused.

But other people were different. They all thought that Fu Da’s method was a way to ask for gifts.

Bo Yuan was the first to carefully take away the dishes next to Pei Luoshu.

"Mr. Pei, I want it too."

Pei Luoshu leaned back in his chair and said with a smile.

"What I'm giving you isn't anything good, are you sure you want it?"

Bo Yuan was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Fu Da. Those sharp eyes seemed to want to swallow him up.

He put down the plate awkwardly, swallowed, and spoke cautiously.

"I don't want it anymore."

When he sat back in his chair, Bo Yuan's eyes widened.

Why is there no normal one?

"Eat quickly, or the food will get cold."

As soon as Chen Shiyi spoke, everyone came to their senses from their surprise and started eating happily again.

"What's going on?"

Pei Luoshu added new tea to Chen Shiyi's tea bowl.

"This is something Fufeng asked me to bring to Fuda."

"Fufeng?"

Chen Shiyi became even more confused. How did this involve Fufeng again?

"Fu Da and Fu Feng are brothers from the same school."

so it is.

"Then why didn't Fufeng come with you?"

The smile on Pei Luoshu's face deepened.

"He doesn't dare to come. He's afraid of losing face, and even more afraid of losing his life."

"Is it that serious?"

"Well, so, he stayed in Valley County to help me with things."

Pei Luoshu returned to Yougu County three days later.

On the day of leaving, the sun was shining brightly, the wind was gentle and the sun was shining. Her moon-white robe fluttered in the wind. Her porcelain-like face showed an unbridled smile. She stepped lightly on the stirrup with her left foot, moved up lightly, and leaned down to whisper softly.

"Eleven, wait for me to come back."

Chen Shiyi stood on the street, looking at the figure in white walking against the light, and his heart felt very soft.

He had said before that when he came to Kyoto, he wanted to buy a house, plant weeping willows, and dig a pond. In the pond, he would raise all kinds of fish, and fill the pond with lotus leaves, surging in green, and pink lotus flowers standing in the wind, swaying the fragrance of summer.

He, and she, were walking on the path.

She told him how much money she had earned that day.

He told her that some trivial matters in the court had been resolved.

Days like that are plain and trivial, yet they make people yearn for them.

Chen Shiyi thought that she had made her decision.

Fu Da's face looked very bad these days.

Chen Shiyi couldn't help but ask.

"What did Pei Luoshu give you that day?"

Fuda glanced at her unhappily.

"Medicine."

Chen Shiyi frowned slightly.

"What's wrong with you?"

Fu Da gritted his teeth.

"I was not sick before, but now I am sick."

"What?"

Fu Da was very impatient, frowned and asked Chen Shiyi loudly.

"What makes you like that man named Pei?"

Chen Shiyi was speechless.

This, how come this has to do with her again?

"Fufeng is your fellow apprentice?"

Fu Da sneered.

"Junior brother? If I see him again, I will tear him into pieces."

Chen Shiyi was a little confused.

"You seem to have a lot of opinions about him and his servant?"

Fu Da was very angry, but in the end he revealed a deep sense of powerlessness.

He has always been strong and cold, how could such an expression appear on his face?

"You, fell from the sky and came to me. Did they let you come here?"

Fu Da sat resignedly on the stone bench in Qinyun Building.

"The Pei guy you liked lured me to Yougu County under the pretext of Fufeng. The moment I opened the back yamen, he drugged me. When I was unconscious, he fed me a drug that would poison me once a month. I thought it was a matter of life and death, but he actually fed me such a deadly poison. Who would have thought that he was here to protect someone like you..."

Fu Da roared fiercely in dissatisfaction.

"I am the best martial artist in the world, yet you asked me to do this bodyguard job. You black-hearted Pei, you humiliated me like this!"

Chen Shiyi couldn't believe it, and then he couldn't help laughing.

"He is indeed a bit too much."

Fu Da closed his eyes slightly. If it wasn't for the sake of living a few more years, he would have killed that black-hearted man.

"Was that the antidote he gave you that day?"

Fu Da slowly opened his eyes and asked doubtfully.

"How is Lao Qin's medical skills?"

"It's OK, but you have to ask him if he can cure your poison."

Fu Da asked quietly.

"Why aren't you worried that Lao Qin will make an antidote and then I'll chop Pei to pieces?"

Chen Shiyi said with a smile.

"You know more about the martial arts world than I do. I'm sure you've been looking for the antidote for a long time. You came to me because you really accepted your fate. Otherwise, you would have left long ago."

"Am I going to live here in peace for the rest of my life?"

Chen Shiyi was silent for a while and then spoke.

"After Pei Luoshu was laid off in Kyoto, I asked him for the medicine and returned you to the ends of the earth. Then, during this period of time, I gave you some money. It's considered that I hired you. Don't bother him. He is also worried and confused. I will apologize to you on his behalf."
