The palms of your hands are extremely sensitive places.
In the past, when she was teaching Shi Dai how to draw talismans, Jiang Baiyan was accidentally touched by her once.
He couldn't recall the exact feeling, he only remembered that he couldn't help but shudder.
At this moment, she intentionally scratched the palm of her hand, and the itch became more real.
Not to mention Shi Dai called out "Chen Yu" in a low voice.
The itching on his hands spread to the tips of his ears, and Jiang Baiyan closed his fingers.
The reason why Shi Dai was asked to teach him how to coax people was, after all, just a whim.
No matter she faced Han Zong in Junlai Inn or the white tiger demon today, she always had a way to please people.
Seeing her chatting and laughing with others, Jiang Baiyan couldn't help but think that Shi Dai's smiling eyes could only be focused on him.
This idea was extremely despicable, but he couldn't restrain it, so he half-joked about being unkind.
Jiang Baiyan knew that with Shi Dai's temperament, he would definitely teach him how to coax him.
He guessed right.
But when he was treated like this by her, Jiang Baiyan actually lost his mind.
It's hard to tell whether Shi Dai did it on purpose.
She was sitting quietly on the chair, her eyes passing over his cheek, as if she was worried, but also curious.
Sensing his trepidation, Shi Dai fluttered her eyelashes and laughed out loud: "You are really... so ticklish."
Jiang Baiyan was the most ticklish person she had ever seen.
Even the slightest touch was enough to make him tremble slightly.
When she touched his tail fin, he even——
Shocked and thinking about it again, Shi Dai quickly stopped her thinking.
"I was distracted when I was trying to coax you."
Jiang Baiyan was much taller than her. Shi Dai looked at him and had to raise her neck.
When he raised his head, strands of soft dark black hair fell down, sticking to his forehead and ears, making his face look like mutton-fat white jade.
Shi Dai said: "I will be serious in the future - extremely serious."
An overwhelming tone.
Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes: "In the future?"
"Well, later."
Shi Dai smiled, raised her index finger, and waved it in front of his eyes: "Coaxing you is not limited to today."
The fingertips curled up unnoticeably.
Jiang Baiyan curled his lips slightly: "Thank you very much."
"Stop!"
Shi Dai crossed her hands and said, "'Thank you' and 'No problem' are prohibited."
Jiang Baiyan was too polite to her in the past, and "Thank you, Miss Shi" has almost become a mantra. Now that he has taken off the title "Miss Shi", the previous thank you is still deeply ingrained.
She had a fever and was very afraid of the cold. When she went out, she wore a fluffy snow-colored rabbit fur cloak.
Because she was wearing a heart-to-heart bun and her black hair was curled up, like a white rabbit with upturned ears.
It goes well with this slightly childish action.
After being disturbed by Shi Dai, the topic was moved away, and the atmosphere finally became less weird.
Jiang Baiyan remained calm, clenched his hands into fists, and brushed the place she touched with his fingertips: "Okay."
He was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Do you want someone who is proficient in cooking, washing clothes, cleaning the house, beauties, and martial arts?"
In order to relieve the thoughts that were stirring in her heart, Shi Dai was drinking tea.
The hot tea entered her mouth, but before she could swallow it, she narrowly avoided choking.
Even she herself had almost forgotten this incident, but Jiang Baiyan actually remembered the conditions so clearly?
"what?"
Shi Dai coughed a few times: "Didn't I say that these requirements are too harsh and should not be taken seriously."
Jiang Baiyan didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes were quiet and deep.
"Besides, liking someone is not an imperial examination. There are no fixed answers to fill in one by one. After meeting each other, I felt that they were compatible, and I naturally fell in love with them."
Shi Dai said casually: "However, it's good to know how to do housework. I'm not squeamish."
So she has no interest in most children from aristocratic families.
Shi Dai felt uncomfortable getting along with the young masters who had been pampered since childhood and were skinnier and tenderer than her.
She used to be busy with her studies and working part-time, and occasionally worried about her livelihood. In fact, she had suffered a lot and could not take time off.
Instead of fighting crickets and playing polo with the family members, Shi Dai preferred to stay in Zhenesli, working on cases and catching monsters with her friends.
Jiang Baiyan: "Right?"
His tone was casual, as if he mentioned it casually.
Shi Dai: "This... I really can't explain clearly."
She was completely unfamiliar with this aspect of the matter, and when facing Jiang Baiyan, she became even more nervous for no reason.
Shi Dai smiled after saying this: "Besides, even if I like him, he may not like me. There is no such thing as a character."
Jiang Baiyan thought, no.
There will be no one in the world who doesn't like Shi Dai.
At the same time, he felt curious: "If he has no intention of you, what should you do?"
Shi Dai resolutely said: "Of course I don't like him."
She has no obsession, or rather, has a deep obsession.
In Shi Dai's view, emotions require joint efforts from both parties, with each other coming and going and supporting each other.
If the other person only regards her as a dispensable role and cannot give her the love she longs for, she will definitely break it off immediately and hang on a tree without any time.
Shi Dai won't force things, she can live well alone.
Jiang Baiyan smiled: "That's quite open-minded."
"Speaking of this," Shi Dai held up her cheeks, "What about you?"
My heart clenched secretly.
She asked: "What kind of person do you like?"
Jiang Baiyan: "I don't know."
To be precise, he doesn't even know what "like" means.
In the past, he was imprisoned in the dark underground, with only pain to accompany him day and night. Jiang Baiyan developed an inextricable addiction to pain.
Later, the evil cultivator regarded him as a sharp sword, and he gradually became accustomed to killing. I don't know when, killing became a part of his life.
That was the only ripple in his stagnant life.
Jiang Baiyan felt that he should like it.
But if you want to put these two words on someone——
He wanted to get close to Shi Dai, longed for Shi Dai's touch, and didn't want to see her hurt and die.
Jiang Baiyan thought carefully, could such an emotion be called "like"?
"Not sure?"
Shi Dai didn't have much doubt and joked: "You like to cut off the water the most now, right?"
Jiang Baiyan whispered silently and did not refute.
His fingertips tapped on the edge of the table one after another. His expression was indifferent, with a hint of absent-minded laziness.
Shi Dai did not continue to ask, but Jiang Baiyan recalled the question just now——
"What should you do if he doesn't care about you?"
If Shi Dai had no intention of treating him, what should he do?
This thought couldn't be thought about in detail, it just passed through my mind, causing a strange stinging pain, like being poked by the tip of a knife and then covered with an airtight net.
A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and Jiang Baiyan touched his heart.
Just at this moment, the main door of the elegant room was pushed open.
"We're back."
Meng Ke stepped into the room, smiled and exhaled thin white smoke: "Come and see who these people are."
It got dark very early in the late winter. Shi Dai and Jiang Baiyan chatted for a while in the private room, and the dusk came quietly.
The candlelight in the elegant room was rippling. Shi Dai looked toward the door and saw a dark figure.
Behind Meng Ke is the painted-skinned demon who came to Shi Mansion a few days ago to pay homage to the New Year.
There are male and female painted-skin demons, and their appearance looks much better than the previous pale complexion.
"what."
Shi Dai noticed the change at a glance: "Is this... using cosmetics from Jiaoyue Pavilion?"
"Yes."
Meng Ke introduced the guests into the room one by one: "It's our latest rouge and makeup powder. How about it, isn't it good?"
The Painted Skin Demon is born with a face as white as paper. Although he can adjust his facial features at will, his bloodless skin cannot be changed.
At this time, we have to mention Dazhao’s magical cosmetics.
The makeup powder deepens the skin tone, and the rouge adds just the right amount of crimson, which complements the painting-skin demon's exquisite craftsmanship.
She glanced around a few times and stopped at a familiar face. Shi Dai waved her hand: "A Chun."
Ah Chun was the first painted skin demon she met.
In my impression, Ah Chun looked miserable and thin at the beginning. When talking to her, he would always lower his head timidly.
Ah Chun's appearance has not changed today. She still has the same facial features that Shi Dai asked her to draw with a brush. Her cheeks are lightly powdered due to the application of makeup.
Like peach blossoms condensed with dew, the scenery is beautiful and beautiful.
"Miss Shi."
Ah Chun smiled softly: "I heard that you had a fever yesterday. Are you feeling unwell now?"
"Don't worry, the medicine will cure the disease."
Shi Dai asked: "You just came back from Jiaoyue Pavilion?"
"Ah."
Touching his cheek, Ah Chun said softly: "There are always customers who think that we look different from ordinary people... Mrs. Meng specially asked someone to make this kind of makeup powder, which can be used by painted skinned demons."
In this way, they are no different from others and can walk on the streets openly without worrying about attracting strange eyes.
Shi Dai felt happy and did not forget the identity of her master. She led the painted skin monsters to sit down one by one:
"Most of the people here today are not human, so you don't have to be restrained. The food in Linxian Pavilion is good, are there any taboos?"
As she asked the question, her eyes swept across him lightly.
The painted-skin demons all painted their own facial features. Unexpectedly, many of the faces disappeared from the crowd and were ordinary.
Shi Dai was startled at first, but then figured it out.
They have lived for too long under either surprised or inquiring eyes, and finally live a peaceful life, unwilling to attract attention.
The painted-skin demons sat down one by one. Shi Dai turned around and caught a glimpse of Shen Liushuang and Shi Yunsheng walking out of the observatory.
Must be an illusion.
Shen Liushuang's expression... seems strange?
Before she could think about it, more figures appeared outside the door.
He is a corpse hunter who works in partnership with "Send Me".
Song Ningyan sat on the shoulders of a muscular zombie as usual, her legs dangling leisurely. When she saw several Zhenesi colleagues, she lazily lowered her lips and said, "Long time no see. How is Dede's fever?"
Good things don't go out, bad things pass thousands of miles.
How come everyone and the demon in the whole room knew she was sick?
Shi Dai tightened her cloak and said, "It's not serious. It's already healed."
"Frost flow."
Glancing at the silent Shen Liushuang, Song Ningyan narrowed her eyes: "Has your money been stolen?"
Otherwise, why would his face be so lifeless?
Shi Yunsheng also felt strange and turned his head.
He and Shen Liushuang stayed at the observatory. Through the gaps in the carvings, they could vaguely observe Jiang Baiyan's movements.
In his opinion, Jiang Baiyan and Shi Dai behaved appropriately from beginning to end, sitting on two chairs respectively, and never even came close to each other.
But for unknown reasons, Shen Liushuang fell into deep thought.
And it is the contemplation accompanied by pupil earthquake.
Could it be that she saw something?
When Shi Yunsheng asked, Shen Liushuang only said "nothing".
It is the same now.
Carefully stroking up her long hair that had been blown by the wind, Shen Liushuang regained her casual look, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "How could that be? I just stood outside for a long time, the wind is cold."
These words only deceived Shi Dai.
As someone who had suffered from fever, Shi Dai took off her rabbit fur cloak and planned to put it on her body: "It's cold? You won't be sick, right?"
After speaking, he looked at Shi Yunsheng: "How are you?"
Shi Yunsheng:......
Confused, like ants crawling around, he looked at Shen Liushuang silently: "I'm fine."
"You won't get sick, don't worry."
Stopping her sister from handing over the cloak, Shen Liushuang looked at Song Ningyan and changed the subject: "Is this a new zombie?"
Song Ningyan is half a collector, and has a large number of zombies of various types under her hands.
Shen Liushuang had worked with her in Zhen'es for several years, and Shen Liushuang had never seen the person in front of him.
"It's my new flying zombie."
Song Ningyan gently stroked the zombie's head: "I spent a lot of effort to get rid of the evil spirit from it."
Zombies are divided into many categories.
Purple zombies, white zombies and green zombies are corpses shortly after death. They have corpse aura and are afraid of sunlight.
Mao Zheng has a higher level of cultivation, with copper skin and iron bones. As for Fei Zheng, he is as agile as flying and is not afraid of swords. It takes thousands of years to develop.
Shi Dai was very interested and looked at it up and down.
This zombie's face was covered in scars and its complexion was ashen. It was shaped like a hill, as big as three of her combined. Its neck and wrists were as thick as tree stumps, and it was surprisingly strong.
Song Ningyan sat on its shoulder, and she didn't violate the rules at all.
It fits that movie line, "I can hit ten."
The evil spirit was driven away, leaving only vague instincts in the zombie. Song Ningyan stroked his head and nuzzled him like a puppy.
It is completely different from his fierce appearance.
Shi Dai thought quietly, so good.
The exorcists more or less brought one or two zombies with them. Song Ningyan explained:
"Boss Meng said that there are painted-skinned demons here today, so you can try putting makeup on them."
Zombies are transformed from corpses, and through the hands of the Painted Skin Demon, their appearance can be made the same as that of ordinary people.
Naturally, the hidden danger of zombies scaring passers-by is solved.
Song Ningyan touched her chin and thought about it in advance: "What kind of face should I give it..."
Looking at the other corpse chasers, a few lively and bold ones have already started chatting with the painted-skin demon.
Shi Dai understood.
Co-authored Tonight is a big dress-up game with Miracle Zombie.
After the corpse chasers, one after another dark shadows walked into the private room.
The sixteen night wandering gods were well organized, dressed in black robes, and moved slowly. When they saw Shi Dai, they all bowed their hands and saluted.
They were originally as tall as iron towers and looked a bit scary, but now they have shrunk in size and become the size of an adult.
Shi Dai had an indescribable premonition.
really.
The leader, Ah Yi, raised his dark eyes: "I heard..."
Shi Dai glanced at Meng Ke.
Her trumpet-like mother obediently covered her mouth.
Ah Yi: "I heard that Miss Shi has a fever."
"Recovered this morning."
Shi Dai responded patiently and invited them into the house: "Walking in Dazhao for ten days, isn't it very hard?"
Sixteen groups of shadows answered one after another.Ah Yi said calmly: "It's not hard, it should be."
Ah Er was very happy and looked around: "I'm exhausted. Is this the legendary Linxian Pavilion? It's so beautiful!"
……
Ajiu's face didn't change: "Duty, responsibility, place."
……
Shi Wu opened his eyes wide and was dazzled by the magnificent decoration in the private room: "Oh——"
Shi Lu followed it and sang a duet: "Wow——"
Shi Dai thought they were cute and friendly, and grinned: "The cooking skills of the Linxian Pavilion cook are first-rate in Dazhao. The food will be served later, so you can eat more."
Sixteen pairs of black eyes looked at her at the same time and blinked at the same time.
Meng Ke responded at the right time: "You can eat as much as you want, but if you don't have enough, add more."
See what happens when the children are hungry.
When the Night Traveler takes his seat, the guests arrive, and the food is gradually served.
Linxian Pavilion specializes in immortality, and the dishes are naturally unusual.Each dish is served on a jade plate and is designed with an elegant appearance with a strong ancient charm.
For example, the dish called "Snow Infant" in front of Shi Dai is made of processed frog meat wrapped in bean pods. It is as white and tender as snow, and has a round body, like a baby made of ice and snow.
The Painted Skin Demon and the Night Traveling God came to the Immortal Pavilion for the first time. They were so amazed that they couldn't bear to put down their chopsticks.
In comparison, the corpse chasers were much more stable.
People who are willing to deal with corpses are mostly withdrawn.Even though Song Ningyan was leisurely and leisurely, she often had dark circles under her eyes, looked sleepy, and was too lazy to talk to strangers.
Shi Dai glanced away and found that [-]% of the corpse chasers were wearing dark-colored clothes and sitting at the table, looking as still as a mountain.
When he looked sideways at his zombie, his expression became much softer.
"Thank you for your support today."
Meng Ke raised his glass generously: "Jiaoyue Pavilion, have you given it away? Let's work together on Night Travel Express. I wish you all a lot of money."
After saying that, she lowered her head and rubbed Shi Dai's hair next to her: "I especially want to thank Dai Dai for the idea. In addition, there are..."
Shi Dai smiled and cleared her throat: "Today we are gathered here to celebrate our good friend Jiang Baiyan——"
Jiang Baiyan, who had a plain face and was eating alone:?
His movements froze.
Shi Dai: "The story book written by him, "Han Chuang You Hua", was successfully sold and became popular in Chang'an City."
Jiang Baiyan:......
His movements completely froze.
I remembered.
Before the New Year, he saw Shi Dai and Shi Yunsheng building a snowman. He wanted to scare her with a joke, but she took her into the study and made up a story in a daze.
In Shi Dai's original words, "The plot has ups and downs, the details are horrifying, and it has a different sense of reality. It will definitely be very popular."
To be honest... he has indeed experienced the extremely cruel magic and dangers inside.
He had completely forgotten about this matter long ago, but when he suddenly mentioned it today, Jiang Baiyan raised his eyes blankly.
Shi Dai was in a good mood, smiling with her eyebrows flying, and shook the wine glass in her hand at him.
In order to be more down-to-earth and eye-catching, the original title of the book was "Appalling!"The woman discovered this in the courtyard!After learning the truth, the entire city of Chang'an exploded! 》.
But after thinking about it, she felt that given Jiang Baiyan's temperament, he probably wouldn't like such an exaggerated title.
Making money was important, but she had to respect Jiang Baiyan's preferences first, so after asking him, she changed it to "A Quiet Story in a Cold Window".
That string of "appalling" is the small print added on the title page.
Facts have proved that the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley. Once "Han Chuang You Hua" came out, it attracted storybook lovers to rush to buy it, and the sales volume was very impressive.
"I have watched "The Story of a Cold Window"."
Meng Ke responded: "The literary talent is outstanding and it is a rare masterpiece in recent years."
Shi Jingcheng followed his wife and praised him together: "Bai Yan has a quick mind and excellent swordsmanship. He is actually both civil and military."
Shi Dai gave a thumbs up: "A genius is actually by my side!"
Jiang Baiyan:......
I don't quite understand what the three of them are talking about.
The tips of his ears were slightly warm and he closed his eyes.
Among the painted-skin demons and corpse chasers present, a few had read "The Story of a Cold Window" and did not expect to see the author himself, which was a novel sight.
During the banquet, people were drinking wine and drinking wine, and the voices were intertwined.
Jiang Baiyan didn't eat much. Firstly, he didn't like the noise, and secondly, he couldn't get used to the smell of alcohol. After a short while, he put down his chopsticks after finishing his meal, said goodbye and left the observatory to get some fresh air.
Gentle and polite from beginning to end, can't fault it.
Not far away, Shen Liushuang's eyes were condensed and she frowned slightly.
Half an hour ago, on the observatory, Shi Yunsheng didn't notice any clues, but she could see one detail clearly.
Shi Dai and Jiang Baiyan didn't know what they said, so they stretched out their right hands and scratched Jiang Baiyan's palm.
Shi Dai scratched the palm of Jiang Baiyan's hand.
At a subtle angle, in a dark shadow.
Shen Liushuang:? ? ? ? ?
For a brief moment, all thoughts left her.
Immediately afterwards, there was a vigorous brain explosion.
Why did her sister touch Jiang Baiyan's hand?After touching it, he smiled.
Why didn't Jiang Baiyan dodge?He is eccentric and arrogant. No matter who he comes into contact with accidentally, he will quickly avoid it.
She doesn't understand, and she doesn't want to understand.
But when we are alive, we should face the bleak life and face the dripping blood.
After standing upright in the cold wind of late winter for a long time, Shen Liushuang realized something.
In the storybook, this is called mutual affection and affection.
In fact, Shi Dai was the more proactive one.
Shen Liushuang clenched his fist, then unclenched it, then clenched it again and then loosened it again.
Thoughts raced through my mind, and at first it was pure "why".
After her doubts settled, she continued to think:
Jiang Baiyan why?Because of his face?Well, putting aside any prejudices, Jiang Baiyan was the most handsome man she had ever seen.
He is also very good at swordsmanship, and at a young age, he has already become famous in Zhenesli.
But why should he?
Then he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
This brat, just touching his hand, actually let Dede take the initiative?Was his own arm stuck to the table? !
All in all, taking this sudden discovery as a premise, many things have been tricky before.
At the celebration banquet for the Lianxian case, when Jiang Baiyan was drunk, it was Shi Dai who sent him home.
While chasing the fairy in the painting, Shi Dai fell into the water. Jiang Baiyan was faster than Liu Rutang, who was possessed by Lady Bai, and rescued her from the bottom of the water.
Oh, yes, Jiang Baiyan also took the initiative to teach Shi Dai how to practice swordsmanship.
——This kid, has he been secretly thinking about things since then?
Shen Liushuang clenched her fist.
Remembering Shi Dai's action of gently poking his palm, Shen Liushuang loosened his fingers.
What can she do.
Since Shi Dai took the initiative, Shen Liushuang could not act as a villain indiscriminately.
When they used to read the script, what she and Shi Dai hated the most were characters who deliberately created obstacles between the protagonists.
So she struggled again and again, and Shen Liushuang finally thought that if Shi Dai liked it, she wouldn't mind helping.
It doesn't matter whether you use white hands or black hands.
Shi Dai, who was immersed in delicious food, knew nothing about Shen Liushuang's ever-changing emotions.
The food at Linxian Pavilion is the best in Chang'an, and the craft amber wine is even more delightful, as sweet as sweet spring.
Shi Dai drank two drinks and explained the specific operation process of express delivery to the night wandering gods. The painted skin demon and the corpse chaser were stunned for a moment.
There is too much to say, and I can sum it up in one sentence: If you don’t get rich, who will get rich?
"I have made arrangements for the warehouse to pick up the goods."
Meng Ke said: "Tonight I entrust a batch of goods to all the immortals. Please send them to Yangzhou City. Thank you for your help."
Shi Dai took a sip of amber wine, stretched out her chopsticks, and looked at the dishes in front of her.
It's a fish dumpling.
The original owner living in this world has eaten it many times, but for Shi Dai herself, she has never tasted it.
Seeing her pause, Song Ningyan on the side asked: "Dade doesn't like eating pork?"
Fish dumplings, or sashimi, are very popular in Dazhao and are a common delicacy at banquets.
Because it is raw food, it is difficult for some people to accept it.
Shi Dai shook her head: "No."
"Dede likes to eat fish."
Meng Ke understood her preferences and held a pair of chopsticks for her: "You guys should also try it. Linxian Pavilion's fish fillet is the signature dish."
The fish has red flesh and white skin, and is cut as thin as cicada wings.
Shi Dai swallowed it in one gulp. The meat was soft, no fishy smell, and extremely delicious.
It tastes so good.
Shi Dai's eyes lit up as she experienced the new delicious food.
This was the finale of Linxian Pavilion. When the dish was served, Jiang Baiyan had already left the table.
She briefly recalled that she had asked Jiang Baiyan if he would eat fish.
The answer is to eat.
Mermaids live underwater, and their favorite and most commonly eaten food should be fish.
"Mother."
Shi Dai whispered to Meng Ke beside him: "I'll ask Jiang Baiyan if he wants to try it."
Shi Yunsheng was alert: "I'll accompany you——"
Before she finished speaking, Shen Liushuang grabbed her arm.
"What are you doing outside?"
Shen Liushuang: "It's too cold at the observatory. Children should stay indoors and don't catch cold."
Shi Yunsheng:?
Shi Yunsheng:? ? ?
The small eyes are full of confusion.
Who pulled him to stand outside for nearly half an hour this afternoon?Isn't that person called Shen Liushuang?
Shen Liushuang looked as usual and took half a bowl of green vegetables for him: "It's time for the vegetables to get cold. Don't waste it. Eat it."
Unable to guess Shen Liushuang's intention, the boy looked at her blankly, then turned around, and there was no one in Shi Dai's seat.
And he had to bury his head and gnaw on the most disgusting vegetables.
Shi Yunsheng:?
Sir, this is so strange.
*
Pushing open the carved wooden door connected to the observatory, Shi Dai was blown away by the night wind.
Jiang Baiyan stood alone by the railing. Hearing the sound, he turned around.
Although she was embarrassed to admit it, the first thought that popped into Shi Dai's mind was not "really cold".
But "so beautiful".
It was dusk, and the moon was bright in the sky.
The young man is tall and tall, with a good frame and a slim waist. His brows and eyes are slightly hazy in the moonlight and candlelight.
The dark bamboo patterns on the white clothes seemed to flow slightly, and together with Zanli's exquisite facial features, they suddenly hit her eyes.
Real visual impact.
Seeing it was her, Jiang Baiyan frowned and stepped forward, blocking the direction of the wind: "What are you doing out here?"
"The new finale dish is fish breasts."
Shi Dai gathered her cloak and spoke with a hint of expectation: "It tastes very good. Do you want to eat it?"
After looking at her for a moment, Jiang Baiyan chuckled: "You came out specifically to ask me this?"
It was just a trivial thing, he didn't expect Shi Dai to remember him.
Shi Dai nodded: "Didn't you say that sharks eat fish?"
"Ah."
Jiang Baiyan said: "I heard it."
The next sentence had no beginning or end, and Shi Dai didn't understand it until she heard the laughter coming from the room.
The atmosphere in the private room was lively, and the guests' voices increased unconsciously. Jiang Baiyan was at the observatory and could hear the conversations inside.
Therefore, he knew that the fish meat was on the table.
Shi Dai wanted to ask him if he could go in, but unexpectedly, Jiang Baiyan beat her to it.
He spoke softly and spoke clearly: "Do you like fish?"
Shi Dai's heart moved slightly.
The meaning was almost the same. He asked and Song Ningyan asked, but they gave people completely different feelings.
Facing Song Ningyan, Shi Dai could answer without hesitation or thinking.
Hearing Jiang Baiyan say this, she hesitated inexplicably: "Huh?...Hmm. The fish tastes very good."
After I finished speaking, I felt something was wrong and wanted to take it back, but unfortunately there was no undo button.
Blinking again, Shi Dai caught a glimpse of blue light.
Jiang Baiyan's right hand was slender and well-proportioned, and his skin was as white as porcelain, showing a coldness under the moonlight.
There was a shimmering light in her palm, and when she looked closely, she found it was a small blue fish.
——The gem that Jiang Baiyan bought in a barbarian shop in the West Market a few days ago.
His voice was light and calm: "Send it to you."
Shi Dai raised her head: "Huh?"
Jiang Baiyan curled his thin lips and smiled lazily: "Don't you like it?"
Like to eat fish.
Of course I also like fish.
His tone was too ordinary, as if he was talking about today's weather rather than giving her a valuable treasure.
"How does this work?"
Shi Dai shook her head: "This is your favorite treasure, right? I can't accept it."
Jiang Baiyan sighed: "When did I ever fall in love with this kind of jewelry?"
The rest of Shi Dai's words were stuck in her throat.
When Jiang Baiyan bought this Western Region sapphire, she was puzzled. With Jiang Baiyan's preferences, she would never take a fancy to such exquisite gadgets.
If he hadn't bought it for himself——
Jiang Baiyan said: "It's to see you off."
Shi Dai:......
My mind was in a state of confusion.
Caught off guard by a word, Shi Dai managed to calm down, her breath slightly confused: "Send it to me? At that time?"
Jiang Baiyan: "Yeah."
She stayed in Hu Shang's shop for a long time because of this orb.
Did Jiang Baiyan notice?That's why you bought it?
Just because of her?
Her chest was swollen with unfamiliar emotions, and the corners of her mouth raised uncontrollably. Shi Dai wanted to suppress it, but failed.
She simply smiled and responded: "...Oh."
Jiang Baiyan: "Don't like it?"
Shi Dai: "I like it."
After thinking for a while, she added softly: "The blue fish is very cute."
Very strange.
When her eyes fell on the little fish gem, what Shi Dai thought of in her heart was Jiang Baiyan's tail.
The clear blue shark's tail looks and feels like water.
It is a softer color than sapphire.
In a sense, he is also a blue fish.
Indeed... quite cute.
In the corner where the lights don't shine, Jiang Baiyan's expression is a little gloomy.
He raised his eyebrows and suddenly took a step closer. A dark, threatening shadow pressed down heavily.
Due to the height difference, Shi Dai was completely imprisoned.
Looking down at her, Jiang Baiyan smiled: "Cute?"

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
In the past, when she was teaching Shi Dai how to draw talismans, Jiang Baiyan was accidentally touched by her once.
He couldn't recall the exact feeling, he only remembered that he couldn't help but shudder.
At this moment, she intentionally scratched the palm of her hand, and the itch became more real.
Not to mention Shi Dai called out "Chen Yu" in a low voice.
The itching on his hands spread to the tips of his ears, and Jiang Baiyan closed his fingers.
The reason why Shi Dai was asked to teach him how to coax people was, after all, just a whim.
No matter she faced Han Zong in Junlai Inn or the white tiger demon today, she always had a way to please people.
Seeing her chatting and laughing with others, Jiang Baiyan couldn't help but think that Shi Dai's smiling eyes could only be focused on him.
This idea was extremely despicable, but he couldn't restrain it, so he half-joked about being unkind.
Jiang Baiyan knew that with Shi Dai's temperament, he would definitely teach him how to coax him.
He guessed right.
But when he was treated like this by her, Jiang Baiyan actually lost his mind.
It's hard to tell whether Shi Dai did it on purpose.
She was sitting quietly on the chair, her eyes passing over his cheek, as if she was worried, but also curious.
Sensing his trepidation, Shi Dai fluttered her eyelashes and laughed out loud: "You are really... so ticklish."
Jiang Baiyan was the most ticklish person she had ever seen.
Even the slightest touch was enough to make him tremble slightly.
When she touched his tail fin, he even——
Shocked and thinking about it again, Shi Dai quickly stopped her thinking.
"I was distracted when I was trying to coax you."
Jiang Baiyan was much taller than her. Shi Dai looked at him and had to raise her neck.
When he raised his head, strands of soft dark black hair fell down, sticking to his forehead and ears, making his face look like mutton-fat white jade.
Shi Dai said: "I will be serious in the future - extremely serious."
An overwhelming tone.
Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes: "In the future?"
"Well, later."
Shi Dai smiled, raised her index finger, and waved it in front of his eyes: "Coaxing you is not limited to today."
The fingertips curled up unnoticeably.
Jiang Baiyan curled his lips slightly: "Thank you very much."
"Stop!"
Shi Dai crossed her hands and said, "'Thank you' and 'No problem' are prohibited."
Jiang Baiyan was too polite to her in the past, and "Thank you, Miss Shi" has almost become a mantra. Now that he has taken off the title "Miss Shi", the previous thank you is still deeply ingrained.
She had a fever and was very afraid of the cold. When she went out, she wore a fluffy snow-colored rabbit fur cloak.
Because she was wearing a heart-to-heart bun and her black hair was curled up, like a white rabbit with upturned ears.
It goes well with this slightly childish action.
After being disturbed by Shi Dai, the topic was moved away, and the atmosphere finally became less weird.
Jiang Baiyan remained calm, clenched his hands into fists, and brushed the place she touched with his fingertips: "Okay."
He was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Do you want someone who is proficient in cooking, washing clothes, cleaning the house, beauties, and martial arts?"
In order to relieve the thoughts that were stirring in her heart, Shi Dai was drinking tea.
The hot tea entered her mouth, but before she could swallow it, she narrowly avoided choking.
Even she herself had almost forgotten this incident, but Jiang Baiyan actually remembered the conditions so clearly?
"what?"
Shi Dai coughed a few times: "Didn't I say that these requirements are too harsh and should not be taken seriously."
Jiang Baiyan didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes were quiet and deep.
"Besides, liking someone is not an imperial examination. There are no fixed answers to fill in one by one. After meeting each other, I felt that they were compatible, and I naturally fell in love with them."
Shi Dai said casually: "However, it's good to know how to do housework. I'm not squeamish."
So she has no interest in most children from aristocratic families.
Shi Dai felt uncomfortable getting along with the young masters who had been pampered since childhood and were skinnier and tenderer than her.
She used to be busy with her studies and working part-time, and occasionally worried about her livelihood. In fact, she had suffered a lot and could not take time off.
Instead of fighting crickets and playing polo with the family members, Shi Dai preferred to stay in Zhenesli, working on cases and catching monsters with her friends.
Jiang Baiyan: "Right?"
His tone was casual, as if he mentioned it casually.
Shi Dai: "This... I really can't explain clearly."
She was completely unfamiliar with this aspect of the matter, and when facing Jiang Baiyan, she became even more nervous for no reason.
Shi Dai smiled after saying this: "Besides, even if I like him, he may not like me. There is no such thing as a character."
Jiang Baiyan thought, no.
There will be no one in the world who doesn't like Shi Dai.
At the same time, he felt curious: "If he has no intention of you, what should you do?"
Shi Dai resolutely said: "Of course I don't like him."
She has no obsession, or rather, has a deep obsession.
In Shi Dai's view, emotions require joint efforts from both parties, with each other coming and going and supporting each other.
If the other person only regards her as a dispensable role and cannot give her the love she longs for, she will definitely break it off immediately and hang on a tree without any time.
Shi Dai won't force things, she can live well alone.
Jiang Baiyan smiled: "That's quite open-minded."
"Speaking of this," Shi Dai held up her cheeks, "What about you?"
My heart clenched secretly.
She asked: "What kind of person do you like?"
Jiang Baiyan: "I don't know."
To be precise, he doesn't even know what "like" means.
In the past, he was imprisoned in the dark underground, with only pain to accompany him day and night. Jiang Baiyan developed an inextricable addiction to pain.
Later, the evil cultivator regarded him as a sharp sword, and he gradually became accustomed to killing. I don't know when, killing became a part of his life.
That was the only ripple in his stagnant life.
Jiang Baiyan felt that he should like it.
But if you want to put these two words on someone——
He wanted to get close to Shi Dai, longed for Shi Dai's touch, and didn't want to see her hurt and die.
Jiang Baiyan thought carefully, could such an emotion be called "like"?
"Not sure?"
Shi Dai didn't have much doubt and joked: "You like to cut off the water the most now, right?"
Jiang Baiyan whispered silently and did not refute.
His fingertips tapped on the edge of the table one after another. His expression was indifferent, with a hint of absent-minded laziness.
Shi Dai did not continue to ask, but Jiang Baiyan recalled the question just now——
"What should you do if he doesn't care about you?"
If Shi Dai had no intention of treating him, what should he do?
This thought couldn't be thought about in detail, it just passed through my mind, causing a strange stinging pain, like being poked by the tip of a knife and then covered with an airtight net.
A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and Jiang Baiyan touched his heart.
Just at this moment, the main door of the elegant room was pushed open.
"We're back."
Meng Ke stepped into the room, smiled and exhaled thin white smoke: "Come and see who these people are."
It got dark very early in the late winter. Shi Dai and Jiang Baiyan chatted for a while in the private room, and the dusk came quietly.
The candlelight in the elegant room was rippling. Shi Dai looked toward the door and saw a dark figure.
Behind Meng Ke is the painted-skinned demon who came to Shi Mansion a few days ago to pay homage to the New Year.
There are male and female painted-skin demons, and their appearance looks much better than the previous pale complexion.
"what."
Shi Dai noticed the change at a glance: "Is this... using cosmetics from Jiaoyue Pavilion?"
"Yes."
Meng Ke introduced the guests into the room one by one: "It's our latest rouge and makeup powder. How about it, isn't it good?"
The Painted Skin Demon is born with a face as white as paper. Although he can adjust his facial features at will, his bloodless skin cannot be changed.
At this time, we have to mention Dazhao’s magical cosmetics.
The makeup powder deepens the skin tone, and the rouge adds just the right amount of crimson, which complements the painting-skin demon's exquisite craftsmanship.
She glanced around a few times and stopped at a familiar face. Shi Dai waved her hand: "A Chun."
Ah Chun was the first painted skin demon she met.
In my impression, Ah Chun looked miserable and thin at the beginning. When talking to her, he would always lower his head timidly.
Ah Chun's appearance has not changed today. She still has the same facial features that Shi Dai asked her to draw with a brush. Her cheeks are lightly powdered due to the application of makeup.
Like peach blossoms condensed with dew, the scenery is beautiful and beautiful.
"Miss Shi."
Ah Chun smiled softly: "I heard that you had a fever yesterday. Are you feeling unwell now?"
"Don't worry, the medicine will cure the disease."
Shi Dai asked: "You just came back from Jiaoyue Pavilion?"
"Ah."
Touching his cheek, Ah Chun said softly: "There are always customers who think that we look different from ordinary people... Mrs. Meng specially asked someone to make this kind of makeup powder, which can be used by painted skinned demons."
In this way, they are no different from others and can walk on the streets openly without worrying about attracting strange eyes.
Shi Dai felt happy and did not forget the identity of her master. She led the painted skin monsters to sit down one by one:
"Most of the people here today are not human, so you don't have to be restrained. The food in Linxian Pavilion is good, are there any taboos?"
As she asked the question, her eyes swept across him lightly.
The painted-skin demons all painted their own facial features. Unexpectedly, many of the faces disappeared from the crowd and were ordinary.
Shi Dai was startled at first, but then figured it out.
They have lived for too long under either surprised or inquiring eyes, and finally live a peaceful life, unwilling to attract attention.
The painted-skin demons sat down one by one. Shi Dai turned around and caught a glimpse of Shen Liushuang and Shi Yunsheng walking out of the observatory.
Must be an illusion.
Shen Liushuang's expression... seems strange?
Before she could think about it, more figures appeared outside the door.
He is a corpse hunter who works in partnership with "Send Me".
Song Ningyan sat on the shoulders of a muscular zombie as usual, her legs dangling leisurely. When she saw several Zhenesi colleagues, she lazily lowered her lips and said, "Long time no see. How is Dede's fever?"
Good things don't go out, bad things pass thousands of miles.
How come everyone and the demon in the whole room knew she was sick?
Shi Dai tightened her cloak and said, "It's not serious. It's already healed."
"Frost flow."
Glancing at the silent Shen Liushuang, Song Ningyan narrowed her eyes: "Has your money been stolen?"
Otherwise, why would his face be so lifeless?
Shi Yunsheng also felt strange and turned his head.
He and Shen Liushuang stayed at the observatory. Through the gaps in the carvings, they could vaguely observe Jiang Baiyan's movements.
In his opinion, Jiang Baiyan and Shi Dai behaved appropriately from beginning to end, sitting on two chairs respectively, and never even came close to each other.
But for unknown reasons, Shen Liushuang fell into deep thought.
And it is the contemplation accompanied by pupil earthquake.
Could it be that she saw something?
When Shi Yunsheng asked, Shen Liushuang only said "nothing".
It is the same now.
Carefully stroking up her long hair that had been blown by the wind, Shen Liushuang regained her casual look, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "How could that be? I just stood outside for a long time, the wind is cold."
These words only deceived Shi Dai.
As someone who had suffered from fever, Shi Dai took off her rabbit fur cloak and planned to put it on her body: "It's cold? You won't be sick, right?"
After speaking, he looked at Shi Yunsheng: "How are you?"
Shi Yunsheng:......
Confused, like ants crawling around, he looked at Shen Liushuang silently: "I'm fine."
"You won't get sick, don't worry."
Stopping her sister from handing over the cloak, Shen Liushuang looked at Song Ningyan and changed the subject: "Is this a new zombie?"
Song Ningyan is half a collector, and has a large number of zombies of various types under her hands.
Shen Liushuang had worked with her in Zhen'es for several years, and Shen Liushuang had never seen the person in front of him.
"It's my new flying zombie."
Song Ningyan gently stroked the zombie's head: "I spent a lot of effort to get rid of the evil spirit from it."
Zombies are divided into many categories.
Purple zombies, white zombies and green zombies are corpses shortly after death. They have corpse aura and are afraid of sunlight.
Mao Zheng has a higher level of cultivation, with copper skin and iron bones. As for Fei Zheng, he is as agile as flying and is not afraid of swords. It takes thousands of years to develop.
Shi Dai was very interested and looked at it up and down.
This zombie's face was covered in scars and its complexion was ashen. It was shaped like a hill, as big as three of her combined. Its neck and wrists were as thick as tree stumps, and it was surprisingly strong.
Song Ningyan sat on its shoulder, and she didn't violate the rules at all.
It fits that movie line, "I can hit ten."
The evil spirit was driven away, leaving only vague instincts in the zombie. Song Ningyan stroked his head and nuzzled him like a puppy.
It is completely different from his fierce appearance.
Shi Dai thought quietly, so good.
The exorcists more or less brought one or two zombies with them. Song Ningyan explained:
"Boss Meng said that there are painted-skinned demons here today, so you can try putting makeup on them."
Zombies are transformed from corpses, and through the hands of the Painted Skin Demon, their appearance can be made the same as that of ordinary people.
Naturally, the hidden danger of zombies scaring passers-by is solved.
Song Ningyan touched her chin and thought about it in advance: "What kind of face should I give it..."
Looking at the other corpse chasers, a few lively and bold ones have already started chatting with the painted-skin demon.
Shi Dai understood.
Co-authored Tonight is a big dress-up game with Miracle Zombie.
After the corpse chasers, one after another dark shadows walked into the private room.
The sixteen night wandering gods were well organized, dressed in black robes, and moved slowly. When they saw Shi Dai, they all bowed their hands and saluted.
They were originally as tall as iron towers and looked a bit scary, but now they have shrunk in size and become the size of an adult.
Shi Dai had an indescribable premonition.
really.
The leader, Ah Yi, raised his dark eyes: "I heard..."
Shi Dai glanced at Meng Ke.
Her trumpet-like mother obediently covered her mouth.
Ah Yi: "I heard that Miss Shi has a fever."
"Recovered this morning."
Shi Dai responded patiently and invited them into the house: "Walking in Dazhao for ten days, isn't it very hard?"
Sixteen groups of shadows answered one after another.Ah Yi said calmly: "It's not hard, it should be."
Ah Er was very happy and looked around: "I'm exhausted. Is this the legendary Linxian Pavilion? It's so beautiful!"
……
Ajiu's face didn't change: "Duty, responsibility, place."
……
Shi Wu opened his eyes wide and was dazzled by the magnificent decoration in the private room: "Oh——"
Shi Lu followed it and sang a duet: "Wow——"
Shi Dai thought they were cute and friendly, and grinned: "The cooking skills of the Linxian Pavilion cook are first-rate in Dazhao. The food will be served later, so you can eat more."
Sixteen pairs of black eyes looked at her at the same time and blinked at the same time.
Meng Ke responded at the right time: "You can eat as much as you want, but if you don't have enough, add more."
See what happens when the children are hungry.
When the Night Traveler takes his seat, the guests arrive, and the food is gradually served.
Linxian Pavilion specializes in immortality, and the dishes are naturally unusual.Each dish is served on a jade plate and is designed with an elegant appearance with a strong ancient charm.
For example, the dish called "Snow Infant" in front of Shi Dai is made of processed frog meat wrapped in bean pods. It is as white and tender as snow, and has a round body, like a baby made of ice and snow.
The Painted Skin Demon and the Night Traveling God came to the Immortal Pavilion for the first time. They were so amazed that they couldn't bear to put down their chopsticks.
In comparison, the corpse chasers were much more stable.
People who are willing to deal with corpses are mostly withdrawn.Even though Song Ningyan was leisurely and leisurely, she often had dark circles under her eyes, looked sleepy, and was too lazy to talk to strangers.
Shi Dai glanced away and found that [-]% of the corpse chasers were wearing dark-colored clothes and sitting at the table, looking as still as a mountain.
When he looked sideways at his zombie, his expression became much softer.
"Thank you for your support today."
Meng Ke raised his glass generously: "Jiaoyue Pavilion, have you given it away? Let's work together on Night Travel Express. I wish you all a lot of money."
After saying that, she lowered her head and rubbed Shi Dai's hair next to her: "I especially want to thank Dai Dai for the idea. In addition, there are..."
Shi Dai smiled and cleared her throat: "Today we are gathered here to celebrate our good friend Jiang Baiyan——"
Jiang Baiyan, who had a plain face and was eating alone:?
His movements froze.
Shi Dai: "The story book written by him, "Han Chuang You Hua", was successfully sold and became popular in Chang'an City."
Jiang Baiyan:......
His movements completely froze.
I remembered.
Before the New Year, he saw Shi Dai and Shi Yunsheng building a snowman. He wanted to scare her with a joke, but she took her into the study and made up a story in a daze.
In Shi Dai's original words, "The plot has ups and downs, the details are horrifying, and it has a different sense of reality. It will definitely be very popular."
To be honest... he has indeed experienced the extremely cruel magic and dangers inside.
He had completely forgotten about this matter long ago, but when he suddenly mentioned it today, Jiang Baiyan raised his eyes blankly.
Shi Dai was in a good mood, smiling with her eyebrows flying, and shook the wine glass in her hand at him.
In order to be more down-to-earth and eye-catching, the original title of the book was "Appalling!"The woman discovered this in the courtyard!After learning the truth, the entire city of Chang'an exploded! 》.
But after thinking about it, she felt that given Jiang Baiyan's temperament, he probably wouldn't like such an exaggerated title.
Making money was important, but she had to respect Jiang Baiyan's preferences first, so after asking him, she changed it to "A Quiet Story in a Cold Window".
That string of "appalling" is the small print added on the title page.
Facts have proved that the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley. Once "Han Chuang You Hua" came out, it attracted storybook lovers to rush to buy it, and the sales volume was very impressive.
"I have watched "The Story of a Cold Window"."
Meng Ke responded: "The literary talent is outstanding and it is a rare masterpiece in recent years."
Shi Jingcheng followed his wife and praised him together: "Bai Yan has a quick mind and excellent swordsmanship. He is actually both civil and military."
Shi Dai gave a thumbs up: "A genius is actually by my side!"
Jiang Baiyan:......
I don't quite understand what the three of them are talking about.
The tips of his ears were slightly warm and he closed his eyes.
Among the painted-skin demons and corpse chasers present, a few had read "The Story of a Cold Window" and did not expect to see the author himself, which was a novel sight.
During the banquet, people were drinking wine and drinking wine, and the voices were intertwined.
Jiang Baiyan didn't eat much. Firstly, he didn't like the noise, and secondly, he couldn't get used to the smell of alcohol. After a short while, he put down his chopsticks after finishing his meal, said goodbye and left the observatory to get some fresh air.
Gentle and polite from beginning to end, can't fault it.
Not far away, Shen Liushuang's eyes were condensed and she frowned slightly.
Half an hour ago, on the observatory, Shi Yunsheng didn't notice any clues, but she could see one detail clearly.
Shi Dai and Jiang Baiyan didn't know what they said, so they stretched out their right hands and scratched Jiang Baiyan's palm.
Shi Dai scratched the palm of Jiang Baiyan's hand.
At a subtle angle, in a dark shadow.
Shen Liushuang:? ? ? ? ?
For a brief moment, all thoughts left her.
Immediately afterwards, there was a vigorous brain explosion.
Why did her sister touch Jiang Baiyan's hand?After touching it, he smiled.
Why didn't Jiang Baiyan dodge?He is eccentric and arrogant. No matter who he comes into contact with accidentally, he will quickly avoid it.
She doesn't understand, and she doesn't want to understand.
But when we are alive, we should face the bleak life and face the dripping blood.
After standing upright in the cold wind of late winter for a long time, Shen Liushuang realized something.
In the storybook, this is called mutual affection and affection.
In fact, Shi Dai was the more proactive one.
Shen Liushuang clenched his fist, then unclenched it, then clenched it again and then loosened it again.
Thoughts raced through my mind, and at first it was pure "why".
After her doubts settled, she continued to think:
Jiang Baiyan why?Because of his face?Well, putting aside any prejudices, Jiang Baiyan was the most handsome man she had ever seen.
He is also very good at swordsmanship, and at a young age, he has already become famous in Zhenesli.
But why should he?
Then he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
This brat, just touching his hand, actually let Dede take the initiative?Was his own arm stuck to the table? !
All in all, taking this sudden discovery as a premise, many things have been tricky before.
At the celebration banquet for the Lianxian case, when Jiang Baiyan was drunk, it was Shi Dai who sent him home.
While chasing the fairy in the painting, Shi Dai fell into the water. Jiang Baiyan was faster than Liu Rutang, who was possessed by Lady Bai, and rescued her from the bottom of the water.
Oh, yes, Jiang Baiyan also took the initiative to teach Shi Dai how to practice swordsmanship.
——This kid, has he been secretly thinking about things since then?
Shen Liushuang clenched her fist.
Remembering Shi Dai's action of gently poking his palm, Shen Liushuang loosened his fingers.
What can she do.
Since Shi Dai took the initiative, Shen Liushuang could not act as a villain indiscriminately.
When they used to read the script, what she and Shi Dai hated the most were characters who deliberately created obstacles between the protagonists.
So she struggled again and again, and Shen Liushuang finally thought that if Shi Dai liked it, she wouldn't mind helping.
It doesn't matter whether you use white hands or black hands.
Shi Dai, who was immersed in delicious food, knew nothing about Shen Liushuang's ever-changing emotions.
The food at Linxian Pavilion is the best in Chang'an, and the craft amber wine is even more delightful, as sweet as sweet spring.
Shi Dai drank two drinks and explained the specific operation process of express delivery to the night wandering gods. The painted skin demon and the corpse chaser were stunned for a moment.
There is too much to say, and I can sum it up in one sentence: If you don’t get rich, who will get rich?
"I have made arrangements for the warehouse to pick up the goods."
Meng Ke said: "Tonight I entrust a batch of goods to all the immortals. Please send them to Yangzhou City. Thank you for your help."
Shi Dai took a sip of amber wine, stretched out her chopsticks, and looked at the dishes in front of her.
It's a fish dumpling.
The original owner living in this world has eaten it many times, but for Shi Dai herself, she has never tasted it.
Seeing her pause, Song Ningyan on the side asked: "Dade doesn't like eating pork?"
Fish dumplings, or sashimi, are very popular in Dazhao and are a common delicacy at banquets.
Because it is raw food, it is difficult for some people to accept it.
Shi Dai shook her head: "No."
"Dede likes to eat fish."
Meng Ke understood her preferences and held a pair of chopsticks for her: "You guys should also try it. Linxian Pavilion's fish fillet is the signature dish."
The fish has red flesh and white skin, and is cut as thin as cicada wings.
Shi Dai swallowed it in one gulp. The meat was soft, no fishy smell, and extremely delicious.
It tastes so good.
Shi Dai's eyes lit up as she experienced the new delicious food.
This was the finale of Linxian Pavilion. When the dish was served, Jiang Baiyan had already left the table.
She briefly recalled that she had asked Jiang Baiyan if he would eat fish.
The answer is to eat.
Mermaids live underwater, and their favorite and most commonly eaten food should be fish.
"Mother."
Shi Dai whispered to Meng Ke beside him: "I'll ask Jiang Baiyan if he wants to try it."
Shi Yunsheng was alert: "I'll accompany you——"
Before she finished speaking, Shen Liushuang grabbed her arm.
"What are you doing outside?"
Shen Liushuang: "It's too cold at the observatory. Children should stay indoors and don't catch cold."
Shi Yunsheng:?
Shi Yunsheng:? ? ?
The small eyes are full of confusion.
Who pulled him to stand outside for nearly half an hour this afternoon?Isn't that person called Shen Liushuang?
Shen Liushuang looked as usual and took half a bowl of green vegetables for him: "It's time for the vegetables to get cold. Don't waste it. Eat it."
Unable to guess Shen Liushuang's intention, the boy looked at her blankly, then turned around, and there was no one in Shi Dai's seat.
And he had to bury his head and gnaw on the most disgusting vegetables.
Shi Yunsheng:?
Sir, this is so strange.
*
Pushing open the carved wooden door connected to the observatory, Shi Dai was blown away by the night wind.
Jiang Baiyan stood alone by the railing. Hearing the sound, he turned around.
Although she was embarrassed to admit it, the first thought that popped into Shi Dai's mind was not "really cold".
But "so beautiful".
It was dusk, and the moon was bright in the sky.
The young man is tall and tall, with a good frame and a slim waist. His brows and eyes are slightly hazy in the moonlight and candlelight.
The dark bamboo patterns on the white clothes seemed to flow slightly, and together with Zanli's exquisite facial features, they suddenly hit her eyes.
Real visual impact.
Seeing it was her, Jiang Baiyan frowned and stepped forward, blocking the direction of the wind: "What are you doing out here?"
"The new finale dish is fish breasts."
Shi Dai gathered her cloak and spoke with a hint of expectation: "It tastes very good. Do you want to eat it?"
After looking at her for a moment, Jiang Baiyan chuckled: "You came out specifically to ask me this?"
It was just a trivial thing, he didn't expect Shi Dai to remember him.
Shi Dai nodded: "Didn't you say that sharks eat fish?"
"Ah."
Jiang Baiyan said: "I heard it."
The next sentence had no beginning or end, and Shi Dai didn't understand it until she heard the laughter coming from the room.
The atmosphere in the private room was lively, and the guests' voices increased unconsciously. Jiang Baiyan was at the observatory and could hear the conversations inside.
Therefore, he knew that the fish meat was on the table.
Shi Dai wanted to ask him if he could go in, but unexpectedly, Jiang Baiyan beat her to it.
He spoke softly and spoke clearly: "Do you like fish?"
Shi Dai's heart moved slightly.
The meaning was almost the same. He asked and Song Ningyan asked, but they gave people completely different feelings.
Facing Song Ningyan, Shi Dai could answer without hesitation or thinking.
Hearing Jiang Baiyan say this, she hesitated inexplicably: "Huh?...Hmm. The fish tastes very good."
After I finished speaking, I felt something was wrong and wanted to take it back, but unfortunately there was no undo button.
Blinking again, Shi Dai caught a glimpse of blue light.
Jiang Baiyan's right hand was slender and well-proportioned, and his skin was as white as porcelain, showing a coldness under the moonlight.
There was a shimmering light in her palm, and when she looked closely, she found it was a small blue fish.
——The gem that Jiang Baiyan bought in a barbarian shop in the West Market a few days ago.
His voice was light and calm: "Send it to you."
Shi Dai raised her head: "Huh?"
Jiang Baiyan curled his thin lips and smiled lazily: "Don't you like it?"
Like to eat fish.
Of course I also like fish.
His tone was too ordinary, as if he was talking about today's weather rather than giving her a valuable treasure.
"How does this work?"
Shi Dai shook her head: "This is your favorite treasure, right? I can't accept it."
Jiang Baiyan sighed: "When did I ever fall in love with this kind of jewelry?"
The rest of Shi Dai's words were stuck in her throat.
When Jiang Baiyan bought this Western Region sapphire, she was puzzled. With Jiang Baiyan's preferences, she would never take a fancy to such exquisite gadgets.
If he hadn't bought it for himself——
Jiang Baiyan said: "It's to see you off."
Shi Dai:......
My mind was in a state of confusion.
Caught off guard by a word, Shi Dai managed to calm down, her breath slightly confused: "Send it to me? At that time?"
Jiang Baiyan: "Yeah."
She stayed in Hu Shang's shop for a long time because of this orb.
Did Jiang Baiyan notice?That's why you bought it?
Just because of her?
Her chest was swollen with unfamiliar emotions, and the corners of her mouth raised uncontrollably. Shi Dai wanted to suppress it, but failed.
She simply smiled and responded: "...Oh."
Jiang Baiyan: "Don't like it?"
Shi Dai: "I like it."
After thinking for a while, she added softly: "The blue fish is very cute."
Very strange.
When her eyes fell on the little fish gem, what Shi Dai thought of in her heart was Jiang Baiyan's tail.
The clear blue shark's tail looks and feels like water.
It is a softer color than sapphire.
In a sense, he is also a blue fish.
Indeed... quite cute.
In the corner where the lights don't shine, Jiang Baiyan's expression is a little gloomy.
He raised his eyebrows and suddenly took a step closer. A dark, threatening shadow pressed down heavily.
Due to the height difference, Shi Dai was completely imprisoned.
Looking down at her, Jiang Baiyan smiled: "Cute?"
