Chapter 359, Moon Viewing on the Roof
"We actually have such a big tree at home!"
Seeing with her own eyes the sycamore tree that her fourth brother had mentioned that covered the roof, Daohua was slightly surprised.
This tree is too big.
"Come on, let's go up."
Yan Wenkai said something, then with a few leaps, he nimbly climbed up the wall to the roof.
Seeing his agility, Daohua's eyes flashed with envy, and she said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you are really amazing now."
Yan Wenkai immediately raised his head and said proudly: "It's just so-so."
Seeing him showing off, Daohua smiled.
Xiao Yeyang shook his head speechlessly, looked at Daohua and asked, "Shall I take you upstairs?"
Daohua immediately shook her head: "I can go up by myself."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at the sycamore tree next to him and asked, "Climbing trees again?"
Daohua nodded: "Not bad."
The wall was two or three meters high, and she couldn't climb it with her bare hands like her fourth brother did without any help.
Fortunately, she is still very good at climbing trees.
Xiao Yeyang didn't try to persuade him: "Okay, then climb quickly. I'll watch you from below to prevent you from falling."
Rice Flower: "Don't underestimate people. How can you fall down after climbing a tree? There is no need for you to watch. Just go up to your roof." After saying that, she walked towards the sycamore tree.
Xiao Yeyang ignored Daohua's words and stood under the tree watching her climb up clumsily. When she reached the roof with the help of branches, he turned over and climbed up.
"careful!"
The roof was tilted and Daohua was a little unsteady. Fortunately, Xiao Yeyang came up in time and supported her.
"Give me your hand, and I'll take you to the roof."
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang and stretched out her hand.
Xiao Yeyang held Daohua's hand tightly and carefully led her towards the roof.
At this time, Yan Wenkai was already sitting on the roof, and he had opened a jar of wine. He tilted his head back and took a big sip. "Little Prince, Big Sister, hurry up. I just discovered today that sitting on the roof and drinking is really a unique experience."
With the support of Xiao Yeyang, Daohua trembled and came to the roof.
"Just sit here."
Seeing Daohua was about to go over and sit next to Yan Wenkai, Xiao Yeyang quickly stopped her: "The view is better here."
Daohua looked up at the moon in the sky, nodded, and sat down on the roof with the help of Xiao Yeyang.
Only then did Xiao Yeyang let go of Daohua's hand, stepped past her, and sat between her and Yan Wenkai.
After he sat down, Daohua looked at Yan Wenkai, who had already taken several sips of wine, with dissatisfaction: "Fourth brother, you came up first, and didn't even say come over to help me?"
Yan Wenkai said casually: "Don't we have the little prince? With him here, he will definitely not let you fall."
Hearing this, Daohua was a little angry: "You are you, he is him, how can it be the same?"
Yan Wenkai: "What's the difference? As long as you don't fall, it will be fine."
Now, Daohua didn't want to talk anymore. She glared at him and looked away.
Yan Wenkai was a little confused and looked at Xiao Yeyang in doubt.
Xiao Yeyang shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.
So, Yan Wenkai stopped worrying about it and continued to drink happily.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Yeyang smiled slightly. This was why he liked Yan Wenkai more. If Yan Wentao was here, he would definitely not be able to support Daohua. If Yan Wenxiu was here, they would not even have the chance to go to the roof.
"The moonlight tonight is really beautiful."
Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, Daohua felt much more relaxed and picked up a jar of wine to drink.
Xiao Yeyang stretched out his hand to stop him: "You want to drink too?"
Daohua: "Aren't we here to admire the moon and drink? Why would we come up if we don't want to drink?" After saying that, she pushed away Xiao Yeyang's hand that was blocking her, then raised her head and took a sip.
After drinking it, seeing Xiao Yeyang still looking at him, he had to say: "Don't worry, this wine is not intoxicating, it's okay to drink a little."
Yan Wenkai, who was standing by, took over the conversation: "That's right, I've already drunk half a pot, and I'm fine."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at him indifferently.
Can a girl’s alcohol tolerance compare to a boy’s?
"Just a few sips."
Seeing Xiao Yeyang looking at her without allowing any refusal, Daohua had no choice but to nod in agreement: "Okay, I'll just drink a few sips." After saying that, she tilted her head back and took another big sip.
When Xiao Yeyang saw this, he reached out and took the jar of wine.
Daohua immediately looked over and asked, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Yeyang: "Watch you, so you don't drink too much."
Daohua: "Xiao Yeyang, I can drink quite well, I won't get drunk."
Xiao Yeyang shook his head firmly: "That won't work either. You didn't bring anyone with you this time. If you get drunk, how are you going to get back? Also, it's okay in front of us, but in the future, when you go out, you can't drink carelessly, understand?"
Rice Flower turned her head, held her chin and looked at the moon without saying a word.
When Xiao Yeyang saw this, he smiled silently, took a paper bag from Defu, and shook it in front of Daohua.
"What's this?"
Rice Flower's attention was instantly drawn to her, and she swallowed.
It was simply because she smelled the tempting aroma of meat.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "Beggar's Chicken tastes good to me. I brought it to you to try."
Daohua took it quickly, opened the paper package in a few seconds, and revealed the fragrant beggar's chicken.
"I want one too!"
Yan Wenkai also smelled the fragrance, and immediately came over and reached out to take the beggar's chicken.
Xiao Yeyang slapped his hand away and said dissatisfiedly: "Your sister hasn't eaten yet. As a brother, why don't you know how to give in to your sister?"
Yan Wenkai withdrew his hand awkwardly: "Didn't I forget?"
Xiao Yeyang snorted, "You forget everything when you see food." After that, he reached out and pulled the chicken leg off and handed it to Daohua's mouth, "Come, try it and see if it tastes good."
Daohua reached out and took the chicken leg, then began to eat. After taking a bite, her eyes narrowed immediately: "Delicious."
Xiao Yeyang smiled: "If you like it, I will bring it to you next time."
While eating, Daohua said, "Where did you buy it? Just tell me the place and I'll buy it myself."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "An County next to Ningmen Pass."
Daohua suddenly stopped talking. She would not run so far just for a bite of food.
"Can I eat now?"
Yan Wenkai interrupted.
Xiao Yeyang glanced at him, pulled down another chicken leg, and then handed the paper bag to Yan Wenkai. Seeing that his wine jar was also empty, he casually handed him his own jar.
Yan Wenkai immediately grinned, quickly took the beggar's chicken and the jar of wine, and then quickly stepped aside, as if he was afraid that Xiao Yeyang would go back on his word.
Xiao Yeyang ignored him and saw that Daohua had finished the chicken leg in her hand, so he handed her another one.
Daohua took the chicken leg and said, "I want to drink some wine."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at her, handed her the jar of wine, and after she took a sip, he quickly took it back.
Daohua had no choice but to gnaw on the chicken leg. While eating, she asked, "Xiao Yeyang, why didn't you talk to me this time?"
Xiao Yeyang raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "You want to talk to me?"
Daohua glanced over and said, "Can you answer the question properly?" After a pause, he said, "Did Master say something to you last time? When we were at Liulichang, I felt that there was something strange about you."
Seeing the sauce on the corner of Daohua's mouth, Xiao Yeyang couldn't help but reach out to wipe it. After wiping it, he saw Daohua staring at him, and then he smiled and said, "Don't think too much. Master Gu didn't do anything to me."
"It's just that the last time I came to your house, Aunt Li was wary of me like a thief. If I don't behave myself, I'm afraid I won't be able to get close to your door in the future."
Daohua was stunned. She didn't expect this to be the reason. After a moment, she glanced at Xiao Yeyang who was sitting next to her with a speechless look on her face: "So you are not afraid now?"
Xiao Yeyang said innocently, "I just wanted to go have a drink with Wen Kai. Who knew you would come along?"
Daohua looked at him with inquiry in her eyes.
I always feel that this guy has bad intentions!
Xiao Yeyang smiled and stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Daohua's head. Unexpectedly, Daohua tilted her head and dodged. Suddenly, he laughed a little: "Okay, eat your chicken leg quickly."
Daohua didn't say much. She just swung her legs and gnawed on the chicken leg leisurely.
Xiao Yeyang picked up the wine jar in his hand and took a sip, then glanced at Yan Wenkai standing beside him.
The wine jar that Daohua took was not big, but it weighed at least one or two kilograms. After drinking one jar, Yan Wenkai was actually a little tipsy. Now after drinking Xiao Yeyang's jar, the drunkenness was even more obvious.
Xiao Yeyang gave Defu a wink, and Defu immediately sat next to Yan Wenkai to prevent him from falling.
Daohua finished her chicken leg, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is everything going on in Liulichang? I heard that a lot of people have been watching you lately."
Xiao Yeyang's expression was slightly restrained, but he quickly recovered: "What could happen? Be at ease, no one can take your money away."
"Money is small, safety is great."
"Haha, are you still worried that someone will attack me?"
"Theoretically, it's impossible, but what if it happens? You still have to be more careful. After all, you've been kidnapped by human traffickers before."
Hearing Daohua bring up the past again, Xiao Yeyang was speechless: "You still can't get over this, right? I'm not saying I'm a top master now, but I still have the ability to protect myself."
Then he paused and said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Looking at Xiao Yeyang's smiling face, Daohua always had the feeling that he was pretending to be relaxed, but since he didn't say it, she didn't dare to ask again.
This guy is actually a very face-conscious person.
Afterwards, the two of them whispered about other things, and under the bright moonlight, it seemed particularly quiet and warm.
Daohua was thirsty after taking a few sips of the wine from the jar, and Xiao Yeyang drank the rest. Holding the empty jar, Daohua glared at Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang touched his nose and said, "I'm doing this for your own good, so that you don't get drunk."
Daohua gritted her teeth: "Thank you."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Daohua glanced at the drunken fourth brother and shook her head helplessly: "Let's go downstairs."
Xiao Yeyang nodded and glanced at Defu. Defu immediately jumped off the roof with Yan Wenkai in his arms. Daohua was very impressed by his neat and light skills.
"Let me carry you down too?" Xiao Yeyang said to Daohua.
Rice Flower shook her head: "If I can go up, I can go down." After that, she staggered towards the sycamore tree.
Xiao Yeyang jumped off the roof only after seeing her climb up the tree branch.
When getting down from the tree, perhaps because she had been drinking, Daohua was not concentrating and accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt. Her body swayed and she fell from the tree.
When Xiao Yeyang saw this, he was shocked and ran over quickly to catch the rice flower. When he landed, the impact was so great that he had to spin around several times while holding the rice flower before he could steady himself.
The sudden loss of weight also scared Daohua. She closed her eyes the instant she fell from the tree. The expected pain did not come. Daohua slowly opened her eyes and saw Xiao Yeyang looking at her helplessly.
"I said I was going to carry you down and jump, but you insisted on doing it by yourself. Now you're scared, aren't you?"
Seeing that her hands were tightly grasping Xiao Yeyang's shirt and he was holding her in his arms, Daohua quickly let go of her hands and said uncomfortably, "You can let me go now."
Xiao Yeyang carefully put Daohua down on the ground, then glanced at her face. Seeing that she was just a little startled, he felt relieved: "Don't climb trees in the future."
Daohua covered her pounding chest and said nothing.
Seeing Daohua was silent, Xiao Yeyang became a little worried: "When we get back, I'll ask the maid to make you a bowl of soothing soup. Drink it before you go to sleep, okay?"
Daohua nodded randomly: "I want to go back."
Xiao Yeyang said quickly: "I'll take you to the Chuihua Gate."
Daohua glanced at him, said nothing, and walked towards the Chuihua Gate quietly.
When they reached the hanging flower gate, Daohua stopped, turned to Xiao Yeyang and said, "You should go back and rest." After saying this, she left quickly without looking back.
Only when Daohua was out of sight did Xiao Yeyang turn around and go back to the guest house. As soon as he returned to the house, a man in black came out and knelt on one knee on the ground.
Xiao Yeyang said calmly, "The Yan family's guards didn't get suspicious, did they?"
The man in black shook his head: "My Lord, no, I used a wild cat to lure them away."
Xiao Yeyang nodded: "You can leave."
The man in black stood up and was about to leave, but just as he turned around, he heard Xiao Yeyang say, "Don't tell Meilin Villa about what happened today."
The man in black nodded.
Xiao Yeyang added: "You are mine now. You should weigh in your mind what you should and shouldn't say in the future."
If he heard that I was drinking and watching the moon with him on the roof late at night, he would probably have a bad impression of Daohua.
It's his fault too, he couldn't help it.
Although he tried his best not to look at Daohua in front of others, once he calmed down, he wanted to see her and talk to her, so he used some tricks to lure Daohua out.
That guy loves to play and is bold. He must be interested in things like going up to the roof to admire the moon.
Sure enough, as soon as Yan Wenkai went to talk to him, he followed him.
The man in black lowered his head: "I know that unless it concerns the safety of the master, I will not mention anything about the master to the old master." After saying that, he looked at Xiao Yeyang hesitantly.
Xiao Yeyang: "If you have something to say, just say it."
The man in black said: "Master, you should trust the old master."
Xiao Yeyang smiled faintly: "I don't disbelieve her, otherwise, I wouldn't want you, right?"
The man in black lowered his head and said nothing.
Xiao Yeyang: "Okay, go down."
"I'll take my leave."
