47 Lake Cruise
Xiao Hezhou really said that he would take Xiao Tingyun to go boating on the lake, and he went to ask his mother for help that day.
Song Wanrou was happy that her son was back, but she was still a little worried about taking her daughter out. After all, something bad happened the last time they went out.
We are still going on a lake cruise this time. What if the boat is shaky and unsafe?
But the two men kept nagging him, and the next day, Xiao Tingyun followed Xiao Hezhou out of the house.
Xiao Hezhou rode on horseback, and as he walked, he explained the precautions to Xiao Tingyun, "When we go boating on the lake later, remember to let Caixing follow you and don't leave you for even a step."
After all, he had promised his mother that even if he fell into the water, he would keep his sister as a cushion.
"I get it. Don't worry. We should always be on guard against others!" Xiao Tingyun had heard it many times, but Xiao Hezhou still did not get tired of it.
Xiao Hezhou nodded in satisfaction, and then thought of a crucial point, and said seriously, "Don't pay attention to a man if he talks to you! This is even more important!"
Xiao Tingyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "But we can't just keep silent, that would be bad."
Xiao Hezhou still remembered that those boys in the bookstore secretly looked at his sister, but Ayun was the only one who didn't care.
"There's nothing wrong with it. You're still young, so it's best if you don't speak. If it's someone I know, you can speak." Xiao Hezhou thought this was the best way to avoid being approached by some ignorant people.
Now she is still young? ? Yesterday I said she was old.
Xiao Tingyun pursed his lips, said nothing, and just looked at Caixing teasingly.
Cai Xing didn't think that the Third Young Master was wrong, instead she thought it made a lot of sense.
There are those ignorant people who come up to chat with me.
There was one at the previous banquet, but that young man...
He looks quite compatible with her daughter, but I wonder what her family background is like? What kind of person is he?
The two arrived at Ming Lake in Kyoto, where there was the most lively lake cruise ship in Kyoto, and there was also a special musician.
Xiao Hezhou carefully led his men onto the largest ship.
As soon as he got on the boat, someone greeted Xiao Hezhou.
"Mr. Xiao San! Here!"
"Hezhou, you are finally back."
"Hey, you brought a girl with you?" someone joked.
Xiao Hezhou first greeted everyone politely, and when he asked about Ayun, he immediately explained, "This is my sister Ayun."
"Ayun, this is the second son of the Left Censor-in-Chief Fang family, Fang Shaoli."
Fang Shaoli smiled cheerfully and generously, "So you are my sister. Don't be restrained when you come out to play today. Treat me like your own brother."
Xiao Tingyun tilted her head and took off the veil on her head, revealing a beautiful face with curved eyes. She was wearing a light blue embroidered long skirt and a green butterfly hairpin on her head. When she heard him say that, she smiled and said, "In that case, thank you, Brother Fang."
Fang Shaoli was cheerful just now, but when he saw Xiao Tingyun's true appearance, he was stunned and began to speak hesitantly, "You, no, you're welcome."
His face turned visibly red.
"Ayun, there are a lot of things to do on this ship. If you don't want to play, you can go and take a rest. There are special guest rooms for rest. Just ask the servant to tell me my name." Xiao Hezhou settled his sister first and didn't bother to look at Fang Shaoli.
Fang Shaoli secretly clenched his fist and coughed.
Xiao Hezhou frowned and asked, "Did you catch a cold?"
"No, don't worry about me, I..."
"If you catch a cold, stay away from my Ayun. She has always been in poor health. Don't let her get infected by you." The words that came out of Xiao Hezhou's mouth made Fang Shaoli particularly heartbroken.
Fang Shaoli: ...It was a wrong choice after all!
Fang Shaoli was speechless. He didn't catch a cold, but he felt a chill in his heart after hearing his words.
Xiao Tingyun smiled politely, then told his third brother that he wanted to go see the scenery, as it was his first time to sail such a large boat.
"Okay, be careful and take care of yourself. Caixing, you should also take care of yourself. Come find me if you have any problems."
Xiao Tingyun nodded to indicate that he understood, and then took Caixing to the deck to get some fresh air.
After the people walked away, Fang Shaoli put his arm around Xiao Hezhou's neck and asked quietly, "Is your sister married?"
Xiao Hezhou shook his head, "No."
Fang Shaoli's eyes lit up, and he suggested in a negotiating tone, "Then...what do you think of me?"
Xiao Hezhou didn't understand what was going on. "What do you mean?"
Fang Shaoli was anxious, "What do you mean? How about I be your brother-in-law?!"
But when Xiao Hezhou heard this, he immediately pushed Fang Shaoli away and smiled gently, "Not so good!?"
"I……"
"Don't set your sights on my sister. Didn't I treat you like my own brother just now? Is this how you treat your own sister?"
"That's not..."
Xiao Hezhou continued to interrupt, "Don't say no, you are not suitable for Ayun, and Ayun is not suitable for you! It's settled!"
After saying that, he left without mercy, leaving Fang Shaoli speechless.
"Hey??! You're... so good to me as a brother, but you don't even give me a chance to be your brother-in-law!" Fang Shaoli glared, folded his arms, and complained.
"If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. Opportunities are earned by yourself!" Fang Shaoli turned sideways and glanced at the direction Xiao Tingyun went, determined to give it a try.
If she really likes him, can Xiao Hezhou stop her?
Before Fang Shaoli could come over, Xiao Tingyun's time of enjoying the scenery was interrupted by a sweet voice.
"Miss Xiao San?!"
Xiao Tingyun followed the sound, looked up, blocked the glaring sunlight with his hand, and saw Yang Mingzhu waving to him.
Before she could say anything, Yang Mingzhu turned her head back from the window.
After a while, Yang Mingzhu also ran to the deck.
"Miss Xiao San, you are here too!" Yang Mingzhu was quite happy.
After all, it's rare to find a girl she likes.
"Miss Yang." Xiao Tingyun bowed slightly as a gesture of respect to his peers.
"You still remember me? I thought you didn't remember me." Yang Mingzhu also sat on the deck.
Xiao Tingyun naturally remembered that this girl loved to wear red and had a flamboyant personality that was rare in Kyoto.
"Of course, I was impressed by Miss Yang at the Taifu Mansion before."
Yang Mingzhu could tell that there was no sarcasm in her words. If it were someone else, she would have to give her a hard time.
Yang Mingzhu smiled nonchalantly, "I'm afraid I'm not the only one who has a deep impression of this."
This of course refers to Li Yunran.
"She's here too." Yang Mingzhu hooked the handkerchief in her hand and suddenly said with disgust, "The annoying ones are all here."
Xiao Tingyun followed her gaze and found that it was Li Yunran, Zhang Hanyue and others.
Li Yunran naturally came with Xu Jinlan.
Li Yunran still looked weak and unable to take care of himself.
If an ordinary person sees someone he doesn't like, he will probably stay away from him.
But the heroine has such magical power that no matter who doesn't like her, she will still force herself to get close to them.
Zhang Hanyue is obviously the same.
Now, several people consciously came towards Xiao Tingyun.
Xiao Tingyun sighed inwardly, wondering how he could run into the heroine just when he was swimming in the lake.
What a tragic fate.
