Chapter 84: Entanglement and Travel Together



When Miss Jun came over, Zhu Zan was chatting and laughing with Zhang Baotang, Sifeng and others who had come over after hearing the news.

"Second brother, sister-in-law is here." Zhang Baotang was the first to see and said happily.

Zhu Zan laughed and put his arms around Sifeng's shoulders.

"So that means the girl doesn't like you?" he said, continuing the conversation.

The four phoenixes seemed to be smiling.

"Anyway, the young master doesn't like her," he said.

Zhang Baotang reached out and patted Zhu Zan.

"Second brother, second brother." he shouted.

Zhu Zan stared.

"What are you doing?" He said unhappily, and then turned around and seemed to see Miss Jun standing behind him, "Why are you here?"

As if he didn't know why he came here, Miss Jun smiled.

"What a coincidence." She said, "I came to Jiuling Hall."

Zhu Zan said "oh".

"Sister-in-law, we are going to eat mutton soup." Zhang Baotang said happily, "Can you come with us this time?"

This time.

Miss Jun thought back to last year when she first came to the capital and met Zhu Zan and his friends. Zhang Baotang had invited her to have dinner together, but his intention was certainly not as sincere as it is now, and Zhu Zan rejected his proposal outright.

At that time she was a strange stranger to them, but now she was Zhu Zan's daughter-in-law.

"Okay." Miss Jun said, "Let's go eat Xixi mutton soup."

Zhang Baotang exclaimed.

"Sister-in-law..." he said.

Zhu Zan interrupted him with a light cough.

"We haven't gotten married yet, don't call me that." He said in a deep voice, "I have a name."

"Miss Jun, do you also know Xixi Lamb Soup?" Zhang Baotang said readily.

Xixi Yangtang is an old restaurant in Beijing, but it is not very famous, so it is not a big restaurant that everyone rushes to.

The reason she knew this was because her master had praised it highly, but every time she returned to Kyoto, she was in a hurry and always said that she would go there again when she had the chance. After they got married, Lu Yunqi also said that he would take her there when he had the chance, but then there was no chance again.

"The prince said so." She said with a smile and glanced at Zhu Zan.

Zhu Zan sneered at her, but instead of refutation he turned his head away.

When he saw Miss Jun coming, Lu Yunqi stood up, and the Jinyiwei beside him hurriedly followed him, but Lu Yunqi did not step forward, but just stood quietly at the corner and watched.

No one dared to pass through this half of the street.

After seeing Zhu Zan and others mount their horses and march forward, Lu Yunqi also mounted his horse. The Jinyiwei beside him naturally followed, and the sound of their swords swiping was very loud.

They followed not too far away, but not too close, and pedestrians avoided them wherever they passed.

Zhang Baotang looked back.

"Second brother, the pack of dogs are still following us," he said.

Zhu Zan looked disdainful without even turning his head.

"As long as he doesn't block the road, he's a good dog," he said.

As he watched them walk across the street and into a small alley, Lu Yunqi's wooden expression changed slightly.

"Sir, what's going on?" The Jinyiwei beside him immediately looked around vigilantly.

"Nothing." Lu Yunqi said, a smile on his face, "What a coincidence, great."

What a coincidence? And so good?

The Jinyiwei looked puzzled, but they didn't need to understand. They just had to follow orders and watched Lu Yunqi urge his horse forward while everyone followed him.

The small alley suddenly became crowded because of so many people, and when they saw Jinyiwei coming, the customers in the small mutton soup restaurant immediately scattered.

Zhu Zan and others had already taken their seats inside, and the shop assistant came tremblingly to greet Lu Yunqi and his group.

"What does your Excellency need?" they asked carefully.

Lu Yunqi pointed at Zhu Zan and others.

"Whatever they want, I want," he said.

As expected, they were enemies again. The shop owners complained in their hearts. Everyone in the capital knew that there would be no peace whenever the Prince of Chengguo and Lu Yunqi met, especially now that the two of them were competing for the same beauty.

But seeing that Lu Yunqi just said this one sentence and sat down without any other action, and Zhu Zan and others over there didn't seem to see Lu Yunqi, the shop owner, thinking of all the gods and Buddhas in his heart, took his employees and hurried away.

The food at the Yangtang Restaurant was simple and was served quickly. Zhu Zan had a table with four people, while Lu Yunqi had a table with one person. In the huge hall, there were only two tables. One side was bustling with laughter, while the other side was silent. The owner and the waiters standing by felt like they were in two completely different worlds.

"Sister-in-law...Miss Jun, please try this." Zhang Baotang said enthusiastically and placed the large lamb bone in front of Miss Jun.

Miss Jun rolled up her sleeves and started chewing the big bone, which was not very elegant for a girl.

On the other side, Lu Yunqi also picked up the sheep bone and slowly took a bite.

"It's really delicious." Miss Jun nodded repeatedly while chewing.

She ate very quickly and efficiently, and Zhang Baotang and Sifeng were a little surprised.

"Miss Jun seems to eat big bones often." They laughed.

There is a skill to eating this kind of bone.

Miss Jun paused slightly while biting a piece of cartilage, her eyes full of smiles.

Not only big bones, she has even eaten raw fish.

"She has eaten everything." Zhu Zan said on the side.

Zhang Baotang looked at Zhu Zan with a sigh.

"Brother, you really understand sister-in-law... Miss Jun." He said, "You are really thoughtful."

The first sentence was quite normal, but the second one was really incomprehensible. Zhu Zan glared at him. How could he tell that he had intentional intention?

Miss Jun put down the bone, spread her hands and raised them slightly to avoid getting oil on her sleeves. Just as Zhang Baotang was about to hand over a wet towel, he saw Zhu Zan had already taken the towel and grabbed Miss Jun's arm to wipe her hands, with skillful and efficient movements.

Zhu Zan wiped it twice before coming to his senses. He cursed in his heart, "Mom, how come serving others has become a habit!"

He looked up at Zhang Baotang and Sifeng, and was stunned at first. Then he smiled ambiguously and cursed "mother" again.

Zhu Zan wiped Miss Jun's hands in a few seconds, threw down the towel, picked up the chopsticks and ate the tofu shreds in big mouthfuls, as if nothing had happened.

"Miss Jun, please try this again." Zhang Baotang said enthusiastically again.

Miss Jun took it with a smile.

The girls ate heartily, talked and laughed freely, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was very lively. Their eyes never looked at Lu Yunqi, the guest at another table in the room, but Lu Yunqi's eyes were always on them, or to be exact, on Miss Jun.

He ate whatever Miss Jun ate, and when Miss Jun laughed, he laughed too, as if they were sitting opposite each other and eating together.

This kind of scene is not unheard of.

Miss Jun recalled that when she first arrived in Beijing, she and Ning Yunzhao saw Lu Yunqi in a fried tofu shop, sitting and eating with a woman like this.

She didn't know it at the time, but now she certainly understands that Lu Yunqi mistook that woman for herself.

Thinking of this incident and that woman, he thought of the many more women in that courtyard, piecing together to form a single self, with Lu Yunqi hugging them left and right.

Miss Jun just felt nauseous, put down the spoon in her hand, turned her head and vomited.

The people at the table were startled, and Zhang Baotang even stood up.

"Sister-in-law." He shouted, "Are you pregnant?"

Zhu Zan, who was turning his head to look at Miss Jun, suddenly felt like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"You've got it!" he shouted, glaring.
