Bai Yan looked at his worried face and silently gave him half of the cake in his hand.
The guard looked flattered.
He looked at Bai Yan, thinking about the rumors about witch doctors in Nan Gu, and couldn't help but say, "Master witch doctor, do you have the legendary insects? The kind that can control people's actions? Ask the guard at the door to buy horses for us..."
He swallowed the rest of the words when Bai Yan looked at him like a fool.
"I am a human, not a god."
Bai Yan said coldly, breaking off another half of the cake in his hand and giving it to him: "Take more food."
The guard waved his hand and smiled, "No need, Lord Bai Yan, I have another one."
It's not like he's short of money. He's had such a hard time getting into the city, why would he only buy one?
Looking at his bulging chest, Bai Yan's face went blank for a moment.
After a while, he lowered his head and took a vicious bite of the cake in his hand.
Guard: “???”
…
There was nothing much to visit in Xiao Mingye’s mansion. There were mountains and water, but there were not many servants serving him.
Along the way, Xiao Mingye told many interesting stories about Youzhou, which made Jiang Zhiyu laugh out loud.
When they reached a cage, Xiao Mingye stopped and boasted in his tone, "You're not afraid of tigers, are you? I guessed you weren't. This is a white tiger I hunted in Youzhou. It has pure blue eyes, which are very beautiful. I'll let it out for you to see."
He finished speaking in one breath, not giving Jiang Zhiyu any time to react.
Jiang Zhiyu: “…”
OK, fine.
[The flowers will wither, and so will I.]
All of them were angry: "..."
You are saying something I can't understand again.
Thinking of what was going to happen next, Du Chen couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly.
Xiao Mingye lay down beside the cage and shouted, "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, come out and receive the guests!"
Jiang Zhiyu: “…”
My mother tongue is indeed speechless.
The white tiger he called Xiaoxue walked out of the cage. It had strong limbs, smooth fur, and a snow-white body. Its beastly eyes stared at Jiang Zhiyu without blinking as it slowly approached.
Xiao Mingye's eyes sparkled with excitement. "How about it? It's beautiful, isn't it? When I first brought it back, it was only as big as my hand, but now it's almost as big as two of me!"
He raised his head slightly, feeling very proud.
Jiang Zhiyu was very considerate and gave some flattering compliments.
Xiao Mingye looked at her and suddenly wanted to play a trick on her: "By the way, Xiaoxue likes to play a game the most. If you turn your back to it and then turn back suddenly, Xiaoxue will be startled."
He had used this sentence to deceive many people, and it always worked. When Xiaoxue was about to attack them, he stretched out his hand to stop them. Seeing them so scared that they couldn't speak clearly, Xiao Mingye could laugh out loud just thinking about it.
Jiang Zhiyu: "...Do you think I'm stupid?"
Xiao Mingye: "..."
No, she shouldn't have said "Okay, okay, let's try it."
Xiaoxue had already walked to the fence, tilted her tiger head, and let out a soft "Awoo".
Xiao Mingye stroked the tiger's head and boasted, "Since she was little, Xiaoxue has only let me touch her. Don't try this. If you get too close, I'm afraid I won't be able to save you in time."
"Oh, what a joke, I don't believe it. Let me try."
Jiang Zhiyu had no resistance to furry things. Xiao Mingye chuckled and said, "Let's give it a try."
He was right next to Jiang Zhiyu, so if Xiaoxue suddenly attacked, he would have enough time to save her.
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Zhiyu stretched out his hand and said, "Let me rub it, let me rub it."
Xiaoxue looked at her and made a strange snoring sound in her throat.
She stretched out her hand too quickly, and the smile on Xiao Mingye's lips disappeared, and his expression became serious. Du Chen's expression changed when he saw this scene.
Earlier, there were people who didn't believe in evil and insisted on touching Xiaoxue. In the end, Xiao Mingye acted decisively and cut off his arm, thus saving him from being eaten by a tiger.
There are many people like this.
Du Chen cursed inwardly.
What was Xiao Mingye thinking? Why didn't he stop it?
If Jiang Zhiyu got injured here, how would he explain it to the Xu family?!
His heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Fortunately, Xiaoxue didn't know whether she was in a good mood today or what, so she didn't attack immediately. Xiao Mingye held his breath and whispered nervously: "Okay, okay, take it back quickly."
Jiang Zhiyu chuckled at his nervous look and said, "Don't worry, it can't bite me."
I don’t know if it was provoked by these words, or if the white tiger’s patience had finally reached its limit, but it narrowed its eyes slightly, and with its sharp teeth wrapped in a strong smell of blood, it pounced and bit directly!
Xiao Mingye's heart skipped a beat, and he said sternly, "Xiaoxue!"
He stretched out his hand, about to repel the white tiger, but saw Jiang Zhiyu pull his hand back with lightning speed, and the white tiger missed.
Xiao Mingye and Du Chen both stopped and opened their mouths slightly.
This white tiger has been trained by the two of them since childhood. It is extremely fast and most people cannot react to it at all.
But she's actually faster than Baihu? !
Just like that, it was pulled out so easily?!
Xiao Mingye and Du Chen looked at each other.
But no matter what, I'm glad I wasn't hurt.
Xiao Mingye had just breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still hanging in the air when he saw Jiang Zhiyu reaching his hand in again as if he was addicted to the game!
Xiao Mingye: “!!!”
He and Du Chen just stared with their eyes wide open, watching the white tiger that Jiang Zhiyu teased with his hands, pouncing and biting, and they would touch the white tiger's round head a few times when they had time, having a lot of fun.
They just stared in amazement until Baihu was exhausted, panting heavily and lying on the ground. Jiang Zhiyu withdrew his hand reluctantly, and then they reacted.
"You...I...she..."
Xiao Mingye glanced at everyone, not knowing what he wanted to say. He sighed deeply and finally said, "Forget it..."
Jiang Zhiyu: “???”
【I hate people who leave things half-finished.】
Xiao Mingye pursed his lips and asked the servants to order more food for Baihu tonight. Looking at Baihu's eyes that seemed to be flashing green light, he pulled Jiang Zhiyu away.
After leaving the house, he looked depressed: "It's over, Xiaoxue is the most vindictive, I don't know how long it will take for her to recover this time."
Jiang Zhiyu: "Holding a grudge?"
"Yes, last time I fed the meat strips that were meant for it to the dog right in front of it, and it ignored me for a week."
Xiao Mingye was dejected, and the resentment behind him seemed to have solidified into substance.
"But I did it this time," Jiang Zhiyu said, puzzled. "Weren't you just watching from the side?"
"That's the problem," Xiao Mingye said frantically, "He will definitely think we didn't help him and hold a grudge against him."
Jiang Zhiyu: “…”
"That does make some sense."
[Isn't it the same with cat sterilization? It's said that you have to put on a show in front of the cat.]
Jiang Zhiyu thought back to the cute pet videos he had seen before and said, "Is it possible that you didn't give enough?"
Xiao Mingye: “???”
Jiang Zhiyu whispered in his ear, and Xiao Mingye's eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Okay, let's do it!"
