Chapter 11
The concierge found Lu Yao, whose face was flushed from drinking too much wine, among the children of the nobles who were drinking Qushui in the backyard.He leaned into the young master's ear, and said that there was a lady from the restaurant at the door to deliver the cakes, and said that Mr. Lu had ordered them.

"Ah?" Lu Yao's clothes were open, his head was tilted, and his eyes were hazy, "I... am I determined...?"

Someone laughed and said: "The lady in the restaurant is pretty?"

The concierge also smiled: "The little lady is wearing a bamboo hat, and she can't see her face clearly through the veil. But her figure is slender and graceful."

A group of people immediately booed loudly and laughed everywhere: "Then Mr. Lu must be settled! Quick, let her come in and take a look!"

Lu Yao was still a little confused: "What—! I'll decide what! Did any of you use my name to make fun of me?"

"Whether he's joking or not, can't you, Mr. Lu, afford a meal of pastries? Why don't you take a look at this lady in the restaurant!"

Lu Yao thought so too, he laughed loudly, and waved his hand boldly: "It makes sense! Go! Bring her in! Let me see!"

……

Lin Yu didn't wait long outside the door, when she saw the concierge approaching quickly, and beckoned to her: "Come in, lady, Mr. Lu is calling you over!"

Instead, Lin Yu showed a hesitant look, hesitating at the door.

The concierge said, "Oh, what are you dawdling about?"

Lin Yu worried: "I...is there a lot of people at this banquet? Or, little brother, you can send it there for me, and I'll share...you [-]% of the payment, okay?"

Seeing her timidity, the porter has no doubts.

He smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? All the young masters here are respectable young masters, how could they do some scandalous things regardless of their status? Besides, do all the young masters want any kind of beauties? It is your good fortune to see you." .But I just want you to deliver it in person. If you don’t even want to deliver a meal, how can you do business at home?”

Lin Yu bit her lip, as if forced by his words, finally made up her mind, and stepped into the door with the food box.

She followed behind the concierge and walked through the winding corridors. She only felt that the scenery on this road was elegant and quiet, but when she walked around a lotus pond, she revealed a scene of drunk and disoriented young men. There is a lot of hustle and bustle in the world, and the world of mortals is tacky.

The maids held up their skirts and shuttled among them to pour wine and serve food. Occasionally, they were grabbed by the corners of their clothes to joke and play.

No prostitutes were invited to perform dances, which may be the last persistence of Xingmen Temple as a Taoist temple.

Among such a group of unrestrained people, the thin figure in the first seat, who was dressed in a blue silk Taoist robe, stood out particularly.

He was sitting alone in a pavilion on the water some distance away from the shore. There were gauze curtains hanging around the pavilion, and the breeze blew gently, revealing the upright figure in the pavilion.

He seems to be guarding the last clean place. While looking at the pages of the book slowly, playing with the jade flute in his fingertips, he doesn't care about the guests who are drinking together, but if anyone makes too much trouble, he will The jade flute was close to his lips, and then blew out a horrific remnant sound like howling wolves and ghosts.

So the guests all over the place covered their ears, just like Monkey King who had been chanted a magic spell, and shouted in pain: "Brother Ying, don't blow it, stop blowing it!"

Sitting in the main seat, also named Ying, if there is no accident, it is the eldest son of the Li family, Li Ying.

Lin Yu glanced vigorously, but could only see a thin and fair side face clearly.

What surprised her was that Zhu Rongzhan's complexion was already extremely fair, but his face still had a rosy complexion and luster, while Li Ying's complexion was even fairer, almost like ice and snow.

And for some reason, his eyes were covered with a black silk cloth.

Is it because you are weak and sick, and you are not feeling well...?
Not knowing if she sensed someone's eyes on her, Li Ying frowned and turned her face in Lin Yu's direction.

But can he really see it?

Is the black silk cloth transparent or not?

The veil is raised and lowered.

As soon as Li Ying caught sight of a strange figure in a green shirt, she was blocked by a light veil, and then saw Lu Yao standing up abruptly, her back completely covering the girl.

Lu Yao reeked of alcohol and stammered a little: "You, you are... the lady of which shop?"

Lin Yu pretended to be afraid that he would be drunk, bowed his head without answering, turned sideways, and moved quietly towards Li Ying's direction.

Lu Yao followed up with a smile and said, "I heard that if you don't deliver it yourself, you won't pay me? I, Lu Yao, am not this kind of person! Someone must have used my name to tease you!"

However, he was not angry when someone used his name.In fact, among the people he knew, there were many people who could do such narrow things.They are all sons of aristocratic families, these jokes are harmless and not worth taking seriously.

Another young master who joined in the fun came over and said with a smile: "Little lady, take off your veil and let us see, how about we take care of all your cakes today?"

"If you fall into the favor of this young master, he will patronize your shop every day from now on!"

"Hahahaha, if I follow you, why are you willing to let the little lady sell pastries?"

"It can be seen that he is unreliable! Why not follow you!"

Seeing more and more people gathered around, Li Ying tilted her head and asked in a low voice, "What's going on? Whose girl is that?"

His voice is soft and thin, and you have to listen closely to hear it clearly.

Fortunately, his nanny has taken care of him since he was a child, and even when he has grown up, she has always been by his side and has a tacit understanding.Hearing his question, she immediately leaned over and said: "Your servant, go and ask."

It's not hard to find out about Lin Yu's background. Soon, she came back and told her neatly: "Someone ordered a box of pastries in Mr. Lu's name, and made things difficult for the young lady, saying that if she didn't deliver them in person, she would not pay them on credit. So here she is."

Through the crowd, Li Ying saw Lin Yu from a distance trying to avoid the siege of the princes, trying to keep her veil, but was forced by them to retreat step by step towards the water pavilion.

The guards guarding both sides of the water pavilion immediately put their hands on the handle of the knife at their waists, making a guard gesture.

Just when she was about to bump into the two steel knives ignorantly, Li Ying raised the jade flute and put it to her lips: "Woo——!!"

All the young masters stopped in their tracks one after another. Occasionally, a few drunken staggered a few steps forward, and the people beside them hurriedly supported them and dragged them back.The guards on both sides also sheathed their knives.

Li Ying held up the flute and did not put it down, saw the woman standing in front of the crowd, looking at him, and suddenly stretched out her hand to lift the curtain hanging from the bamboo hat.

Behind the white gauze is a face as bright as the moon.She was dressed in a green shirt, as if she had stepped out of the clouds and mist in the mountains, she was so beautiful and beautiful.

Lin Yu knows that beauty is not a panacea, and sometimes it can only bring disaster, but sometimes, this face is often one of her sharpest, most effective and deadly weapons.

She bowed to Li Yingying, and bowed to salute: "Thank you, my lord."

Lu Yao looked at Lin Yu in surprise, then at Li Ying who was far away, and said in surprise, "Brother Ying? Have you also taken a fancy to this girl?"

Li Ying put down the jade flute and did not speak, or maybe his voice was too soft for no one to hear.His nanny walked up to the pavilion and said to Lin Yu, "Please come closer."
