Lin Jiujiu was sitting in a private room on the second floor of Xunwei Restaurant, the largest restaurant in the capital.
There is a peach blossom wine here. Although it doesn't taste as divine as the finest wine, its delicate floral fragrance is quite intoxicating.
She had already drunk two pots, but she still couldn't bear to let go.
Her originally fair cheeks were tinged with pink as the intoxication rose, making her look quite beautiful.
Baili Chenyuan did not want outsiders to see Lin Jiujiu in this state.
I was just about to say, "I'm busy."
Then the communication was cut off, but Lin Jiujiu unexpectedly came up to him.
Upon hearing Tantai Yueming's voice, he immediately gave her the address.
"We are in Xunxianglou, in the No. 1 private room of the Heavenly Class."
Her warm breath, accompanied by the faint scent of peach blossoms, wafted from between her lips and teeth.
This left Baili Chenyuan frozen in place for a moment.
I just felt that some indescribable place was beginning to show signs of recovery.
The area below the neck became burning hot.
He quickly pinned the person down on the dining table and asked them properly about the breakup.
Do you even realize how captivating you are now?
Clearly, Lin Jiujiu was unaware of what was happening and had no idea that she had simply leaned over and said something that almost made Baili Chenyuan lose control.
Fortunately, Baili Chenyuan still had self-control; at least, he had no intention of acting recklessly in front of his younger brother.
I could only turn my head slightly to calm myself down.
He silently recited the Heart-Cleansing Mantra in his heart.
Honestly, this kind of practice that teaches one to calm the mind and reduce desires is really useful at times like this.
At least, when Tantai Yueming pushed the door open and came in, he didn't have to bend over to avoid feeling too awkward.
At this moment, Lin Jiujiu had already circulated her spiritual energy to dissipate the alcoholic aroma within her body.
Apart from the lingering fragrance of peach blossoms, there was no trace of drunkenness about him.
Baili Chenyuan looked into his eyes and his gaze deepened. He cursed inwardly.
"What a troublesome little devil."
Tantai Yueming entered the room without any ceremony and sat down directly.
He introduced them to the two of them.
“You have met my royal brother before.”
The Chu Emperor was left at the doorway by him. He was about to bow when he heard Tantai Yueming's words and paused.
I was just about to ask, "When did we meet?"
Then Lin Jiujiu spoke with a smile.
"We have met the Chu Emperor. We have indeed met him. We were on the main street of Chang'an. It's just that His Majesty did not see us."
Her words relieved the Chu Emperor's embarrassment.
The unfinished rituals continued.
"Greetings, Your Highness and Your Highness. I am but a mere mortal emperor, and I dare not disrespect the immortals."
Lin Jiujiu was quite satisfied with his appearance and greeted him with a smile.
"The food and wine have just been served. If Your Majesty doesn't mind, please have some with us."
Lin Jiujiu was right; she had only drunk two pots of peach blossom wine, and hadn't really touched the dishes.
The Chu Emperor didn't really mind. He had lived in the Cold Palace for several years when he was a child, and was only taken out of the Cold Palace when he was around ten years old.
He's eaten not only leftovers, but also spoiled food from the previous day.
What's more, dining with immortals is something he couldn't ask for more.
Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Chu clasped his hands in a fist salute.
He replied, "It's my pleasure."
He then lifted his robe and sat down next to Tantai Yueming.
He was already good-looking, and having been an emperor for so many years, his temperament was naturally exceptional.
One longevity pill earlier restored him to his early twenties.
Sitting next to Tantai Yueming like this, I am truly no less capable than him.
Tantai Yueming merely brought the person along; what the Chu Emperor wanted to ask or say was beyond his control.
So, ignoring them, he ate a few bites of food and then started playing with the little one.
She pinched his little face, which had clearly gained a lot of weight, and asked.
"Little one, do you miss your Uncle Tantai?"
But before he could even finish his sentence and receive a reply from the little boy, he immediately felt a death ray pierce him from the side.
Even normally insensitive nerves become tense.
My mind works incredibly fast, and I quickly pinpointed the crux of the problem.
He stopped pinching the little bean and directly picked up the little white dog in his arms.
She presented it to him with a fawning expression.
"Yes, I'm asking if Xiaobai missed me."
Seeing his strong will to survive, Lin Jiujiu couldn't help but find it amusing, and the corners of her lips curled up involuntarily.
When Baili Chenyuan saw Lin Jiujiu raise her eyebrows, he stopped caring about Tantai Yueming taking advantage of him by using the way she addressed him.
Tantai Yueming breathed a slight sigh of relief when she saw Baili Chenyuan withdraw his gaze.
I lost my appetite.
Little White, who was enjoying being fed by his master, was suddenly pulled out of the house. He didn't get a single bite of food and almost bit his tongue. He wasn't as good-natured as the others.
Coming to her senses, she slapped Tantai Yueming across the face.
He muttered curses under his breath.
"Damn it, who do you think you are? I've lived thousands or tens of thousands of years longer than you, I could be your ancestor."
Fighting is fighting, and cursing is cursing.
Xiao Bai still has a sense of propriety; at least she knows that Tantai Yueming is Lin Jiujiu's friend.
Even when hitting someone, it knew to retract its claws and only patted him a few times with its paw pads.
Although the insults remain, the harm is indeed not significant.
Tantai Yueming was only focused on survival and had completely forgotten about this matter, as well as the fact that Xiaobai could talk and had a bad temper.
The Emperor of Chu looked at the talking little fox and his younger brother, who had been beaten but dared not utter a sound, and his eyes became even more amused.
This kid has messed up his mentality countless times today; finally, someone can teach him a lesson.
