Chapter 126

Jiang Yanyi was really annoyed, and avoided Feng Shuo for several days.

The crossbow was given to Jiang Yanyi by Auntie Guo.

Jiang Yanyi was still angry, "Give it back to him, I don't want it!"

Auntie Guo looked embarrassed, "Boss, aren't you making it difficult for me?"

Jiang Yanyi was fighting with Feng Shuo, and it was not good to involve the people below, so he didn't say anything.

Business after the New Year is busier than before the New Year. Ruyi Tower is now the undisputed number one building in Xizhou. Every day, whether it is hosting banquets or entertaining individual guests, it is very busy. Many merchants have also settled in Ruyi Tower, and it gradually has the shadow of a later business circle.

The accounts that Jiang Yanyi has to look at every day are more complicated than before, and she has less and less time to spare.

After finally finishing the account book that day, it was already dark. Seeing the crossbow in the room, Jiang Yanyi looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist, and thought of the words of the Grand Empress Dowager, and sighed in her heart.

She was annoyed that Feng Shuo was inconsiderate, but Feng Shuo was an ancient man, and he had always been accommodating to her. It was just that he had been in the army for many years, and he could not change his way of training soldiers when teaching people martial arts.

He took time out of his busy schedule to develop a crossbow for her, but she got angry with him because of a little unhappiness. Jiang Yanyi felt that she might have been spoiled by him.

Thinking about this in her heart, the depression that day slowly disappeared.

Jiang Yanyi picked up the crossbow and examined it carefully.

The crossbow was made of top-grade yellow sun wood, and the grip was polished very smooth. It was not difficult to see that the person who made this crossbow had put a lot of thought into it.

Along with the crossbow, there were ten fine iron short arrows in the quiver. The arrow tips were cold and sharp, and they seemed to glow coldly under the candlelight.

Jiang Yanyi picked up an arrow and put it on the crossbow string. Following Feng Shuo's words that day, she leveled her wrist and pointed the arrow out of the window to aim.

The parrot in the bird cage hanging in front of the window, which had been dozing off, suddenly opened its eyelids, flapped its wings and shouted, "The bad guy is coming!"

"The bad guy is coming!"

Jiang Yanyi's hand trembled and she almost pressed the switch to shoot the arrow.

She stood up and took the crossbow to look around the room, then opened the window and looked out, and stopped when she didn't find any suspicious figures.

Qiu Kui slept in the next room. She was always very sleepy, so the parrot's cry did not wake her up. Instead, Huo Jianjia, who had sharp ears, ran over from the room and knocked on the door and asked, "Boss, are you okay?"

Jiang Yanyi said to the outside, "Nothing, it was Adai who was making noises."

Adai was the name Jiang Yanyi gave to the parrot. He originally wanted to call it "Adai", after all, the parrot did not look very smart, but the parrot firmly protested. Every time Jiang Yanyi called it "Adai", it shouted back several times, "Not stupid, not stupid".

Calling it Adai, it was as quiet as a chicken.

Huo Jianjia was also scolded by the parrot as an "ugly girl". If she had not been concerned about Jiang Yanyi, she would have wanted to eat roasted parrots a long time ago. When she heard that it was the parrot making noises, she also returned to her room.

Jiang Yanyi took one last look out the window before closing it.

But when she turned around and found someone else in the room, she was so scared that she took a half step back reflexively.

Seeing who it was, Jiang Yanyi breathed a sigh of relief, but her face couldn't help but become stern: "When did you come?"

Feng Shuo sat down on the mahogany armchair, holding a parrot with its eyes wide open in fear in his hand, and said casually: "Just now."

He moved his eyes down and landed on the crossbow in Jiang Yanyi's hand.

Noticing his gaze, Jiang Yanyi hid the crossbow behind her body uncomfortably, "What are you doing here?"

Seeing that he was holding the parrot in his hand, she said, "Let Adai go."

Feng Shuo raised his eyebrows and answered irrelevantly, "You taught this stupid bird to say that."

Being stared at by his deep and dark eyes, Jiang Yanyi felt guilty for no reason, "No."

She was just very upset a few days ago, and when she was looking at the accounts alone and felt overwhelmed, she muttered to herself and cursed him a few words, but who would have thought that this stupid parrot would imitate her.

Feng Shuo did not pursue the issue with her any further, and asked, "Do you like this crossbow?"

Jiang Yanyi also felt that she was being too hypocritical for the sake of face. She was obviously not annoyed in her heart, but he asked her these questions as if nothing had happened. She felt a little uncomfortable and deliberately said, "It's OK."

Feng Shuo frowned slightly, he stood up, put the parrot, which shrank its neck and dared not say a word, back into the birdcage.

Obviously he did nothing, but the mere posture of standing up made Jiang Yanyi feel a sense of oppression for no reason, and she subconsciously took two steps back.

Feng Shuo turned his head to look at her, with a hint of embarrassment and sneering in his eyes.

Jiang Yanyi felt a little frightened inexplicably, but she could not show weakness on her face, so she stared back with her neck stiff.

The sneer in Feng Shuo's eyes became more obvious, and he took two steps forward slowly.

When he moved forward, Jiang Yanyi retreated, and retreated until her waist rested on the desk. Jiang Yanyi felt as if her heart was hit by something, and it was pounding, and at the same time, she felt a little annoyed.

"What are you doing?" She was timid.

Feng Shuo didn't say anything, but the sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth was a bit dazzling.

He leaned over and stopped when he was only an inch away from Jiang Yanyi's cheek. Under the candlelight, her rosy lips were like peach blossoms in March, tender and fatally attractive.

He seemed to want to get closer, but Jiang Yanyi didn't want to kiss him under this circumstance, so she turned her head away.

His purpose was not this. He reached behind her and snatched the crossbow. He held it with both hands, his arm muscles tensed, and there was explosive power. "Since it's just something to be used together, it doesn't matter if you don't want it."

Seeing that he was about to break the crossbow, Jiang Yanyi quickly stepped forward and snatched it away, staring at him and said, "This is mine!"

"Don't you dislike it?"

"It's my fault even if I don't like you!"

Knowing that she said one thing and meant another, Feng Shuo's unhappiness because she had deliberately ignored him for several days dissipated a little. He seemed to like pinching her face very much. He raised his hand and pinched it. The smooth, soft and tight touch under his fingertips made him unable to let go: "Jiang Yanyi, you are the stubborn one, right?"

His fingertips were rough, and the skin on Jiang Yanyi's face was delicate. He felt comfortable when he stroked it, but Jiang Yanyi felt it was uncomfortable and quickly turned her head away: "It hurts! You are the stubborn one!"

In this era, there was no term "duckling" for the young men in Nanfeng Pavilion, and Feng Shuo didn't think there was anything wrong with her retort.

Since he was not allowed to pinch her face, he took her hand and kneaded it in a good-tempered manner, "Are your hands still sore?"

Jiang Yanyi glared at him and raised her foot to roll hard on his shoe.

Feng Shuo felt pain and put his hands through her armpits and picked her up like a child.

Jiang Yanyi was already tall, but she usually only reached the height of his shoulders when she stood. She was ready to go to bed when she went to see the crossbow just now. Because the charcoal brazier had been burning in the room for a long time and the room was warm, she didn't wear thick clothes. At this moment, she was only wearing a single layer of clothes. Compared with Feng Shuo, who was wearing a cotton and silk robe, she looked even smaller.

Jiang Yanyi was so angry that he tried to grab him with his claws and teeth. Finally, when Feng Shuo pressed his big hand against his back and pressed it into his arms, he roared and tried to bite his neck.

Feng Shuo joked, "Are you sure you want to leave a mark on your neck?"

He had to discuss matters with his generals and staff tomorrow. If someone saw the bite mark on his neck, Jiang Yanyi would not be afraid of others, but if Chu Changping saw it, Jiang Yanyi would be worried.

She was unwilling to give in.

Feng Shuo said, "You can bite my shoulder."

It didn't make sense for her to be polite when someone asked her to bite him. Jiang Yanyi opened his collar and saw his muscular body, and she was worried about her teeth.

He usually looked thin when he was wearing clothes, but he was very well dressed when he took off his clothes.

It was his eight-pack abs that made her dizzy that night.

Feng Shuo looked at her with amusement: "Are you going to bite it or not?"

After being provoked again and again, Jiang Yanyi glared at him angrily: "Don't scream in pain."

She really bit down hard.

A moment later, Jiang Yanyi looked at her front teeth in the mirror with tears in her eyes under the candlelight - her teeth hurt.

Feng Shuo looked at the bloody tooth mark on his shoulder, and there was a look in his eyes that Jiang Yanyi couldn't understand. When he turned his head to look at Jiang Yanyi, there was only doting: "What a shame, my shoulder doesn't hurt, but your teeth hurt."

Jiang Yanyi didn't want to pay attention to him, so he raised the mirror a little higher and continued to check whether his teeth were damaged.

Feng Shuo walked over and hugged her, and a man's face appeared in the mirror, handsome but heroic. On the contrary, Jiang Yanyi was a national beauty, but because of that miserable expression, she looked a little bit silly.

Jiang Yanyi was only wearing her inner clothes, and Feng Shuo was bitten by her, so his clothes were messed up, and only a part of his collar was exposed in the mirror. The two of them leaned against each other, as if they were an old couple.

Jiang Yanyi turned her head and accused him: "It's all your fault."

She took off her outer robe for too long, and her hands were a little cold. Feng Shuo wrapped her with his outer robe and saw a tear on her eyelashes, which was so pitiful. In addition to feeling distressed, he had more thoughts of bullying her.

He suppressed those wrong thoughts and said with a smile: "Let me check your teeth for you."

Jiang Yanyi touched her front teeth with her tongue and said bitterly: "I always feel like my teeth seem to be loose."

Feng Shuo said: "Open your mouth."

She opened her mouth honestly. Her teeth were very well-shaped. At first glance, they looked like neatly arranged scallops. Feng Shuo gently touched her front teeth with his index finger and said: "No, they are not loose."

Jiang Yanyi was relieved.

However, Feng Shuo did not take his finger out. He half-squinted his eyes and stared at her scarlet and gorgeous tongue. When his fingertips probed over, his breathing became heavier.

A muffled groan soon sounded in the room.

Feng Shuo looked at the bright teeth marks on his fingers, his eyes uncertain.

Jiang Yanyi's reckless bite was much more painful than the bite on the shoulder.

Seeing that his hand was bleeding from her bite, Jiang Yanyi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "You asked for it."

It was a conditioned reflex, she couldn't control it.

Feng Shuo said: "Fortunately it was just the hand."

Soon, Jiang Yanyi's door opened and slammed shut, and opened again a moment later, and the outer robe he had draped over Jiang Yanyi was thrown out.

Huo Jianjia heard the noise and rushed out of her room with a big knife. Fortunately, Feng Shuo was very good at light work and left the yard before she left.

Qiu Kui was awakened by the sound of the door closing. She got up with a confused look on her face wrapped in a quilt and asked: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Jiang Yanyi evaded the question: "I'm catching mice!"

Finally, several people helped her chase mice around the room. After working for nearly half an hour and finding nothing, they went back to their rooms to rest.

The next day, Jiang Yanyi went to the storehouse to get a hammer, iron nails and wooden boards, and then nailed the windows tightly.

Aunt Guo passed by and asked in confusion, "What is the boss doing?"

Huo Jianjia, who participated in the rat-catching operation last night, said while chewing a chicken leg, "The boss said that a rat ran into the room, so he nailed the windows to prevent rats."
