"I see. Why would I be afraid? I was just thinking about what kind of celebration to use after defeating the opponent."
"So that's how it is." Su Yanyue released her arms that were tightly hugging Xu Xiaoyi, her face flushed red, the sound of Master Xiao Yi's strong heartbeat kept echoing in her mind.
The two of them went back and sat down to continue eating in silence.

"Eh? Wang Fu, what did the master say to you? I saw you were picked up?" Wang Shou asked Wang Fu who was walking towards him, wondering if Wang Fu had made a mistake and was scolded, then he had to make fun of him!
"My Lord told me that you don't need to clean up the parade grounds and the government office anymore."
"My Lord, you are so kind to me. I'm a little uncomfortable with this. Is it because you think I'm working so hard making salt? What else did he say, Wang Fu? Tell me now. Don't keep me in such a good mood while I'm eating."
"He told you to clean out all the dry toilets in the county, or he'd drown you in one."

"Listen to my explanation. This is the 'divine incense' given to me by the young master. It's what the master wanted. I secretly kept a pack. You can try it too. It's worthy of being something used by the gods. It's so refreshing. All the stress is gone in an instant."
"Xu Jia! I must criticize you. We are secret guards! We work for the master! How could you hide without permission? What if we are discovered?"
Xu Jia saw Xu Yi approaching step by step with an imposing manner, just like an elder brother teaching a younger brother a lesson.
"Hey, what are you doing! You! You! Don't come over here!~" Xu Jia was so scared that he didn't even notice that he was burned by the cigarette butt.
