Chapter 612, Chu Lang
After watching the live-action version of Floating on Water, Daohua became more interested in opening up the eight extraordinary meridians and practicing martial arts. She couldn't wait to order the boat to set sail, wanting to ask Gu Jian if he knew about the Eight Meridians Pill.
Not long after the boat sailed out, Wang Man'er came in and said, "Miss, the young prince's boat is ahead."
After hearing this, Daohua quickly stood up and walked to the window to look out. Seeing Defu standing on the boat in front, she immediately laughed and said, "They are faster than us. Let's go out and take a look."
After the two boats approached, Daohua saw that Xiao Yeyang did not come out as usual, and couldn't help but think, is Xiao Yeyang taking advantage of the fact that today is his birthday and becoming arrogant?
After thinking about it, Daohua asked the servant to bring a gangplank and place it between the two boats, and then he walked over.
Defu was startled when he saw Daohua coming over by herself. He quickly walked over and said, "Miss Yan, please slow down."
The water flow in the middle of the river is relatively fast, and the boat will still shake after stopping.
The two boats were only two meters apart. Daohua was confident that she could pass quickly. After the gangplank was set up, she stood on it and then walked quickly towards the opposite boat.
Xiao Yeyang in the cabin heard the noise outside, left the uninvited guest in front of him, and walked out quickly. As soon as he got out of the cabin, he saw Daohua staggering towards the opposite boat. His heart tightened, and he walked to the side of the boat in two steps, stepped on the gangplank, and reached out to grab Daohua.
With Xiao Yeyang's support, Daohua quickly passed the springboard.
After Daohua stood firmly, Xiao Yeyang looked at her unhappily: "Why are you so anxious? Wait for me and I'll be there in a moment. Why do you need to come over? What if you lose your balance and fall into the river?"
Daohua didn't care much: "I have a very good balance, how could I fall so easily? Besides, even if I fell into the river, I can swim."
Just as she was about to ask Xiao Yeyang what he had just done, Daohua caught a glimpse of a white figure standing in the cabin.
Why does it look familiar?
Suddenly, Daohua's eyes widened.
Isn’t this the man in white who could float on water that we saw at the dock before?
How come he was on Xiao Yeyang's boat?
Soon, Daohua felt relieved again. Xiao Yeyang and his third and fourth brothers had been talking about catching the monk before. It seemed that the man in white should be one of Xiao Yeyang's men.
Seeing Daohua looking at the person in the cabin curiously, Xiao Yeyang remembered that he had something to say to that person just now, so he took her into the cabin.
Looking at Daohua who came in with Xiao Yeyang, Chu Lang raised his eyebrows slightly.
At this time, Daohua finally saw the other person's face clearly, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
The man in white looks to be in his thirties or forties. He is gently waving a folding fan, his white clothes fluttering in the wind, and his eyes are smiling. What a handsome and suave middle-aged uncle!
Xiao Yeyang looked at Chu Lang and said in a bad tone: "Thank you for your help this time. If everything is fine, you can leave."
Even though Xiao Yeyang was so blunt in chasing him away, Chu Lang still waved his fan leisurely, pointed at the rice flowers, and said with a smile: "Why, don't you want to introduce yourself?"
Xiao Yeyang: "No need for introduction, you can go now."
Looking at Xiao Yeyang who made no secret of his dislike, Daohua realized that she seemed to have guessed wrong. The handsome uncle in white in front of her did not seem to be Xiao Yeyang's subordinate.
Chu Lang smiled and shook his head, tapping the letter on the table with his fan: "I helped you kill Monk Kong after all, and this is your attitude?"
Xiao Yeyang frowned: "I didn't ask you for help."
Chu Lang sneered: "Well, this time, my kindness was taken for granted again, if it weren't for you..." Seeing Xiao Yeyang's face suddenly turned ugly, Chu Lang stopped talking with a bored look on his face.
"Okay, I'll go."
As he said this, he stood up and walked out. As he passed by Daohua, he smiled and said, "This kid has a stubborn and bad temper. It's a good thing you can put up with him."
Hearing this, Daohua was unhappy and immediately retorted: "Excuse me, do you know Xiao Yeyang well?"
Chu Lang looked at Xiao Yeyang: "I often hear people talk about him."
Daohua: "Everyone has their own preferences. It's inevitable that they will be biased when dealing with some people and things. How can you comment on someone through someone else's mouth?"
Chu Lang choked and couldn't find any words to refute.
Xiao Yeyang was very happy to see Daohua defending him so much. He walked up and pulled her behind him, then made a "please" gesture to Chu Lang.
Chu Lang looked at Xiao Yeyang, then looked at the rice flowers standing behind him who were looking at him with dissatisfaction. He fanned himself a few times and left in a depressed mood.
Daohua walked to the window and watched Chu Lang lightly tap the water a few times and then climb up the river bank as light as a swallow. She couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement and turned back to ask Xiao Yeyang, "Who is that person?"
Xiao Yeyang snorted, "What a disgusting fellow."
Daohua looked at the letter on the table and asked, "Is that the secret letter you lost earlier?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded.
Daohua was puzzled: "Why would that person help you?"
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: "That person will not do anything without profit, anyway, he has no good intentions."
Seeing that Xiao Yeyang really disliked the man just now, Daohua didn't ask any more questions: "Okay, today is your birthday, don't let some insignificant people affect your mood."
Xiao Yeyang let out a breath and looked at Daohua: "You are right." Then he ordered the boat to set sail.
After a while, we arrived at Taohua Village.
Peach Blossom Temple.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang coming with Daohua, Grandma Gu and Gu Jian both smiled widely.
Both of them knew that today was Xiao Yeyang's birthday, but neither of them had ever thought of celebrating his birthday. There was no other reason.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang coming today was really a pleasant surprise for the two of them.
Grandma Gu went to the kitchen personally to make a bowl of longevity noodles for Xiao Yeyang.
Looking at the longevity noodles, Xiao Yeyang was a little surprised. He smiled and said to Grandma Gu: "Thank you, Grandma. However, you are not in good health, so you should not cook in the future."
Granny Gu smiled and shook her head: "It's just a bowl of noodles, there's no need to get tired. Come and try it and see if it suits your taste."
Xiao Yeyang quickly took a bite and praised loudly, "Delicious." He glanced at Daohua and said, "I thought I wouldn't be able to eat longevity noodles this year. Fortunately, my mother-in-law loves me. Unlike some people, I guess they wouldn't even think of making it for me."
Daohua understood that this was meant for her, and immediately said, "We don't live together, so there's nothing I can do even if I want to."
Xiao Yeyang: "When you're done, can you ask someone to bring it to me?"
Daohua: "By the time I spent delivering the noodles, they've all clumped together. You're such a picky eater, how could you possibly eat mushy noodles? That's just a waste of time."
Xiao Yeyang: “.” I can’t argue with him, so I just eat my noodles.
Granny Gu watched the two bickering with a smile. Seeing her grandson's aggrieved look, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Wait a couple of years, and you'll be able to eat longevity noodles every year."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang was moved. He glanced at Daohua and lowered his head to eat noodles obediently.
Daohua looked at Grandma Gu strangely, feeling that there was something else behind her words.
I have something to do today, so I will only update once!
