However, Xu Yi wasn't someone anyone could just see whenever they wanted. Ah Li felt that if she went to find Xu Yi, she would always be a step too late and end up missing him.
Because Xu Yi would accompany Shi Shi to go boating on the lake or to go for a spring outing and kite flying outside the city. This time it was even more outrageous; the two of them went to Jiangnan, and their return date was uncertain.
Ali sat in front of the wonton stall and asked the owner to cook a large bowl of wontons as usual.
At this moment, Liu Xiu could not hide his excitement; he had finally waited for this person.
Two days ago, the two guards returned. They couldn't find the person, but they saw that the person had left the city.
Liu Xiu thought Ah Li wasn't from the capital, but the two guards said they met Ah Li while they were eating wontons.
Liu Xiu has been staying here for the past two days. He also asked the boss if Ah Li comes here often.
The owner said, "No, I've never seen him before. He only started coming to eat wontons these past two days, and he always orders a big bowl of wontons every time he comes."
Ah Li was tasting the soup and adding vinegar when Liu Xiu ordered a large bowl of wontons from the restaurant and, like Ah Li, also tasted and added vinegar.
However, when Ah Li noticed him glancing at her from time to time and realized she had poured too much vinegar, she hurriedly put the vinegar aside.
Ah Li raised an eyebrow and looked at Liu Xiu, who blushed first, "I... I like to be jealous."
Liu Xiu even picked up a spoon and started eating the wontons, but he was sour from the sourness.
Ahri was amused and said, "Looks like you really are jealous."
When Liu Xiu saw Ah Li smile, he smiled too, "Yes, I love to be jealous."
The two tables were a little close together, and Ahri lowered her head to eat her wontons.
Seeing that Ah Li was enjoying his meal, Liu Xiu scooped up another one, only to be overwhelmed by the sourness. Nevertheless, he endured it and ate the wonton.
Ah Li didn't laugh this time. Liu Xiu's guard walked up to him and said, "Sir, let's change to another bowl."
Liu Xiu waved his hand. When he saw Ah Li looking at him, he said, "If it's edible, it shouldn't be wasted."
After Ah Li finished eating, Liu Xiu was drinking water.
I finished the bowl of wontons, but left half of the soup.
Ah Li paid the bill and left. Liu Xiu also paid the bill and then followed behind Ah Li. When the guards wanted to follow, Liu Xiu told them not to.
Seeing this, Ah Li stopped and looked at Liu Xiu, who was following behind her. "Is there something you need?"
When Liu Xiu heard Ah Li ask this, he said somewhat embarrassedly, "There's something I want to do. I'd like to get to know you and become friends."
Seeing how incredibly innocent Liu Xiu was, Ah Li walked into an alley.
Liu Xiu followed without thinking.
As soon as Liu Xiu stepped into the alley, Ah Li pinned him against the wall and leaned close to him, asking, "You like me?"
Liu Xiu shouted loudly, "No, no!"
Ahri raised her hand and pinched his cheek, saying, "You're still young, you don't know how wicked people can be."
The guards behind Liu Xiu were about to rush over, but when they saw Liu Xiu secretly gesturing to them to stop, they stopped.
Liu Xiu also said to Ah Li, "I'm not young anymore, I'm eighteen."
"Yeah?"
Ah Li leaned slightly closer to Liu Xiu and suddenly kissed his thin lips, saying, "Remember this from now on, men should also be careful when going out."
Liu Xiu was stunned, and Ah Li slowly released him and turned to leave.
After a long while, Liu Xiu raised his hand to touch his lips. Had he just been touched inappropriately by a 'man'?
Liu Xiu looked in the direction Ah Li had just left and suddenly smiled.
The guards stood behind Liu Xiu, not daring to speak.
At this moment, a shadow appeared behind Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu asked, "Have you caught up?"
The shadow said, "Shadow Two, follow."
Liu Xiu turned and walked towards the alley entrance, muttering, "Hmm, don't lose them again this time."
Ahri took a bite of dragon energy and felt refreshed. This person had delivered himself to her door and insisted on following her around. If she didn't take a bite, she would really be doing herself a disservice.
In the following days, whenever Ah Li went out of the mansion to eat wontons, she would inevitably run into Liu Xiu.
Ah Li also noticed that these days, whenever she left the manor, the people guarding her courtyard would leave before her.
However, Liu Xiu did not add any more vinegar and instead ordered a small bowl.
That day, after Ah Li finished eating, she didn't rush to leave. Instead, she rested her chin on her hand and looked at Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu's manner of eating wontons gradually became more refined. He even looked at Ali with a bit of embarrassment, "Is there something on my face?"
Ahri nodded.
Liu Xiu quickly put down his spoon and touched his face. "What is it?"
Ah Li carefully examined Liu Xiu, then lifted Liu Xiu's chin with her hand and said, "It's a handsome face."
Liu Xiu's ears turned red; this person had really gone too far.
Ah Li said, "After we finish eating, let's go for a walk around the neighborhood."
Ali even helped Liu Xiu pay the bill. After Liu Xiu finished the last few bites of his food, he followed Ali.
The guards stopped following, leaving only Shadow One and Shadow Two to stand guard in the shadows.
Shadow Two also bought a bag of sunflower seeds and handed it to Shadow One, asking, "Want some?"
Shadow One glanced at Shadow Two without any emotion, then followed Liu Xiu.
Shadow Two muttered unhappily, "Eat it or don't, I don't want to give it to you anyway."
Meanwhile, Ahri entered the bookstore, where quite a few people were already waiting.
"I heard that Miss Shishi is coming."
"Everyone who's coming here now, aren't they all waiting for Miss Shishi?"
A group of grown men waited expectantly. Liu Xiu followed Ah Li and noticed that Ah Li casually picked up a collection of poems written by Shi Shi. He said, "This person's poems are indeed quite good."
Ah Li carefully flipped through the poetry collection in his hands. The poems in it were not from this era, but Ah Li could recite a large number of them with his eyes closed.
