He had assumed Li Lianhua would come with them. He remembered how Li Lianhua had stopped him from drinking earlier, her hand under the table. At that moment, he wondered if the wine was poisoned. But then he realized that Li Lianhua had come with him; if it were poisoned, how could she have known beforehand?
But then I thought that Li Lianhua was a doctor, and those people who frequented the tombs certainly didn't know medicine. If there was poison, they wouldn't know. But Master Wei asked them to go down to the first-class tomb. If they were poisoned, how could they go down into the tomb?
"Just now at the banquet, you suddenly hinted that I shouldn't drink. Why was that?" Fang Duobing asked as he walked forward, glancing at Li Lianhua, trying to read something amiss from his expression.
Unfortunately, Li Lianhua is no longer the Li Xiangyi of yesteryear. He can lie without even thinking and just spout off a whole string of lies. “Oh, ha~ I just don’t really like drinking.”
Fang Duobing looked at him and saw that there was no change in his face. Maybe he was really overthinking it?
If you can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it. "Never mind, but you're really kind to people. If that kid had really been hit by Zhang Qingshi's hammer, he would definitely have died."
Li Lianhua stopped in her tracks, turned around, and wholeheartedly agreed with what he said, "I think so too."
Fang Duobing: "..."
"You get eight and I get nine?"
"Huh? What do you mean by 'you have eight and I have nine'?" Fang Duobing didn't understand what he meant at all. It wasn't until Li Lianhua handed him the card that Fang Duobing looked at it and realized what he meant. "This Master Wei is quite fond of gambling. He uses the dice numbers as room numbers. Forget it, let's rest first."
Fang Duobing picked up the sign and walked to the corresponding room. Li Lianhua tidied up and lay on the bed, but she wasn't sleepy at all.
"Sigh~ I wonder how Lianxin is doing, whether she's asleep or not." Li Lianhua murmured, when suddenly she heard hurried footsteps outside the door, which didn't sound like human footsteps.
Li Lianxin stood at the window, seized the opportunity, and jumped directly into the room, landing on the table in front of the window. "Lianxin!" Li Lianhua had already sat up by this time and deliberately lowered her voice to call out in that direction.
"Eek~" [It's me] Li Lianxin darted into Li Lianhua's arms in a few quick steps. Li Lianhua hugged the little fox with a joyful expression, his eyes full of undisguised happiness. He had just thought about it and the little fox had come to him on its own.
However, considering that this wasn't safe and that the Lotus Pavilion was still some distance away, she asked, "Why are you here?"
"Waaaaah~~" [Just came to check on you since I had nothing else to do.]
[All the fox spirits have gone out to play, and I'm bored staying alone in Lotus Pavilion. Besides, Lotus and the others won't be going to First-Class Tomb until tomorrow, and there's a big show tonight, how could I be absent!]
"We're here for the big show." Li Lianhua immediately deflated; it turned out they weren't here for him at all.
However, the change in demeanor was only momentary. Li Lianhua pretended to be bewildered and said helplessly to Li Lianxin, "Lianxin, I'm not an animal, I don't understand what you're saying."
【Oh! I forgot about that.】 It's not her fault, after all, there are some things she can't say out loud and can only complain about in her heart by herself, no, by a fox. It's normal to get confused sometimes.
