Chapter 33: A Thought Across the Mountains



That day, when Ning Yuanzhou and Qian Zhao arrived at Jinsha Tower, Li Huashi happened to be competing with others in drinking.

In the hall, on a rectangular table, on the left was Li Huashi, who was wearing a beautiful red dress, and on the right was a man with extraordinary clothes.

There were already piles of bowls on the table. As they drank a little bit, the two seemed to think that this was too slow, so they each held a jar of wine and started competing.

There was a constant stream of booing all around, and Li Huashi really felt like she was almost full from the water she had drunk.

While drinking, Li Huashi saw Ning Yuanzhou in the crowd and paused.

Glancing at Jin Meiniang who was acting as the referee between the two, Li Huashi guessed that Ning Yuanzhou and the other two were probably waiting for her.

After drinking the jar of wine in her hand, Li Huashi smashed the jar on the table and looked at the man opposite her with dissatisfaction.

When the man saw Li Huashi stop, he smiled and gently put down the jar of wine in his hand.

"Madam Nine has admitted defeat?"

Li Huashi looked at the pretty boy in front of her and raised her eyebrows: "You can drink quite well, but as for whether I should admit defeat, first tell me what you want me to do if you beat me? Then I will decide whether to continue competing with you."

The pretty boy was a little surprised: "I don't see a trace of drunkenness on Ninth Lady's face. Is Ninth Lady going to admit defeat in advance?"

Li Huashi: "After drinking so much water, even if I were a water buffalo, I can hardly drink it anymore. Tell me first, what will you ask for if you beat me."

Although it's not that she can't cheat, but since she likes the person in front of her, she might as well see what requests the other party will make if she wins.

The pretty boy chuckled: "What if I say I want to marry Lady Nine?"

"That won't do!" "Nineth Lady, compete with him! Drink him down!" "That's right, Nineth Lady is so beautiful, you are a toad wanting to eat swan meat!"...

Before Li Huashi could even open her mouth, people around her had already raised strong protests.

Li Huashi smiled lightly, opened another jar of wine, took a sip, and gestured to the man.

"Come on, keep drinking."

The man clasped his hands together and bowed.

"I am Fu Bosong from Rongkang Trading Company. Since Ninth Lady is unwilling, I will not compete. I admit defeat."

"Fu Bosong from Rongkang Trading Company? Is he the eldest son of the famous Fu family, the largest bank in Anguo?"

"I heard that when the young master of the Fu family was a teenager, he did not want to accept the arranged marriage of his family, so he left the Fu family alone to work hard outside. It was not until more than ten years later, when he became the head of Rongkang Trading Company, that the Fu family invited him back."

There was a moment of silence among the crowd, and even the person who had previously called him a toad wanting to eat swan flesh stopped talking.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Li Huashi's identity at this time is not as noble as that of a very wealthy young master.

Li Huashi raised her eyebrows. This person refused to reveal his identity at first, but now he finally admitted defeat and revealed his identity.

Regardless of whether the other party wanted to test something intentionally or revealed it unintentionally and just wanted her to look at him differently, Li Huashi didn't like this kind of behavior.

If I say now that I regretted my decision and am willing to marry him, in the eyes of others, I would be regarded as someone who is greedy for money and is trying to get rich.

Although Li Huashi did not regret it.

It’s true that she likes money, but she is already rich, so why does she need to marry a rich man?

What's more, there is definitely no one in this world who is richer than you.

So Li Huashi didn't say a word, nor did she look at the man again. She just turned around and left to go to the bathroom.

In fact, Fu Bosong gave up at the beginning because Li Huashi said that she was so full that she could hardly drink anymore. With sympathy for the lady, and seeing that Li Huashi had no feelings for him, he gave up.

In short, when it comes to matters of the heart, he believes that there is a long way to go, and there is no need to act strong for a short time, or to make others endure the pain and try to compete with him.

He gave his name later because he wanted Li Huashi to remember him and have an impression of him.

Who would have thought that this would make Li Huashi unhappy.

Looking at Li Huashi's back as she turned and left without hesitation, Fu Bosong wondered if he had said something wrong and made someone angry.

But after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what he had said wrong.

Could it be that because she admitted defeat, the other party felt that he looked down on her?

. . .

When Li Huashi came back from the bathroom, Jin Meiniang had already met Ning Yuanzhou.

Li Huashi didn't care what the two were talking about. She pushed the door open and walked into the house. The three of them looked at her.

Li Huashi: "What are you talking about?"

Jin Meiniang smiled and introduced them to each other: "These two are Ning Yuanzhou, the head of the Six Paths Hall of Wu Country, and Qian Zhao, the head of the Six Paths Hall. This is Lady Nine."

Ning Yuanzhou and Qian Zhao stood up and greeted Li Huashi.

Li Huashi smiled and nodded as a response, then walked to Jin Meiniang's side and leaned lazily.

Jin Mei Niang: "They want to know the news about the King of Hedong and the King of Luoxi in Anguo."

Li Huashi looked at the two of them with burning eyes: "Where are Yu Shisan and his men from the Wu Kingdom delegation? Why didn't they come with us?"

Ning Yuanzhou and Qian Zhao were stunned. They didn't expect that Li Huashi not only knew Yu Shisan, but also knew that Yu Shisan was in the Wu Kingdom delegation.

Ning Yuanzhou couldn't help but be a little surprised. Is the current news about Jinsha Tower so impressive?

Ning Yuanzhou: "Madam Nine knows Yu Shisan?"

Li Huashi chuckled: "I know him~ More than that, when Yu Shisan left, he didn't even dare to say goodbye to me and ran away, so it was so hard for me to find him.

Come to think of it, Mei Niang, it seems like Yu Shisan only left you a letter and then abandoned you, right?"
