Chapter 56

After getting a good mood from Shen Yan, Liu Ling thought of the porridge he originally planned to make for Shen Yan.Liu Ling told Shen Yan how well she cooked porridge, and Shen Yan became interested in what she said.

As a result, when they went to see it, facing a pot of overcooked stuff, the two looked at each other in blank dismay.

Mr. Shen leaned over to take a look, and smiled, "A master cook? You really think highly of yourself."

Liu Ling was annoyed that he didn't show her face, so she asked the maid, "Where's my porridge?"

She asked calmly and restrainedly, quite calmly, but the servants of the Shen residence did not dare to think that Princess Changle was easy to talk about.

The maids faltered, to the effect that the scene between the princess and Mrs. Shen was so exciting that everyone was so busy watching the show that they didn't expect to take care of the princess' porridge.The main reason was that the porridge didn't look very good, and everyone thought that the princess was going down the steps given by Mrs. Shen and didn't want porridge.

Liu Ling asked: "Which people looked after the house at that time?"

Several maids stood up.

Liu Ling's face became even colder as ice, walking towards them, Lingxi Lingbi behind her whispered to the princess: Look, Mr. Shen is still standing behind you. Doesn't Mr. Shen feel embarrassed when you slap Mr. Shen in the face like this?

Liu Ling raised her eyebrows, "I just want to ask about the appearance of porridge at that time, did I say that I would hit someone?"

Lingxi and Lingbi were silent, and Master Shen who was behind the princess laughed.Shen Yan stretched out his hand and hooked Liu Ling back, and said in a good tone, "Okay, let's find something to eat." Then he looked at the maids who had neglected their duties, and said nothing about going down to receive the punishment And metaphor.

Liu Ling was slipped away by Shen Yan, but she clearly remembered Shen Yan's dislike for her before, and said, "I didn't do well, did you do well? But it's not the same as me, why laugh at me." Shen Yan Say, "I didn't do well because I didn't learn it; you didn't do well because you didn't learn it. There's an essential difference between the two, okay?"

Liu Ling reached out to scratch him, and he took two steps back, looked at her, and smiled.

No matter what the cooking skills of these two people are, Shen Yan teased Liu Ling a few words, but did not really annoy her, and took her to play by the lake.Liu Ling looked at the overwhelming lotus leaves, so she took Shen Yan to pick lotus leaves together, and wanted to make lotus leaf rice for dinner.

Liu Ling squatted by the water, stretched out her hand and splashed water on Shen Yan's face, "Are you cooking?"

"Don't splash me," Shen Yan wiped the water off his face and said, "Let's do it together."

Liu Ling was satisfied now.

After picking the lotus leaves, Liu Ling looked at the dark green lake and calmed down, with a look of reminiscence in her eyes, "My house also has such a big lake," she gestured to Shen Yan, "It's in my yard, as soon as you open the window, I can see it. I see it, I see it..." She seemed to see the scene where her mother drowned herself.

Shen Yan asked, "What did you see?"

She paused, and then said, "When I saw it, I wanted to eat lotus root from the bottom of the lake. When I was a child, my mother often peeled it for me to eat, that is, to eat it raw. My father didn't allow it, because it was not clean, so he gave her a lesson. She won't peel it off for me..." Her voice lowered, with a faint smile on her face.

Before she was five years old, the family also had a relaxed and happy time.She hadn't thought about it for a long time... Just as she was thinking this way, there was a "plop" next to her. In her surprise, Shen Yan jumped down into the lake with only a little splash.

"Shen Yan!" Liu Ling was quite nervous all of a sudden, she lay down on the bank and called him, fearing that something would happen to him.

After a while, he emerged from the bottom of the water and gave her three or four pieces of small lotus root in one hand. Under Liu Ling's complex eyes, he slowly went ashore, "You mentioned lotus root, I suddenly want to try the lotus root in this lake this year. It hasn’t been picked clean, I didn’t expect there to be more.”

Liu Ling wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.In order to help her divert her sadness, he went so far.

Shen Yan glanced at her, "Pick lotus roots with me?"

Liu Ling curled her lips, "I'm your servant, am I here to work for you?"

She spoke ruthlessly, and when Shen Yan asked someone to push the boat, she was still supported and staggered up.Naturally, Shen Yan would not let her, a rich lady, go into the water to pick lotus roots. She went into the water again and again, and the white and fat lotus roots were neatly piled up on the bow.

Liu Ling watched nervously from the beginning to the end, pulled him into the boat, wiped the water on his body, and said, "Enough is enough."

Liu Ling's hands are small and soft, yet extremely flexible.She may not be good at cooking, but the speed and proficiency in washing lotus roots amazed Shen Yan.Facing Shen Yan's eyes, Liu Ling said, "My mother doesn't wash for me anymore, but I like to eat, so I learned to wash by myself. For so many years, I have washed and eaten by myself." Her mother brought her much pain Only in this way can she feel the momentary warmth left by her mother.

"Taste." Liu Ling handed a washed pink and white lotus root to Shen Yan's mouth. The lotus root has a slightly astringent taste, but it is sweet and delicious, which is very good.

The moon is shining brightly, the stars are few and far between, and the clear water is [-] meters. In the water, a fish swims by, looking at the squatting men and women on the boat with their big round black eyes.After watching it for a long time, it felt tired, so it shook its tail again, and flowed away briskly like red in the water.

Shen Yan lowered her head and ate lotus root with Liu Ling's hand.He was sitting on the boat, his clothes were dripping down, his trouser legs were rolled up, his legs were stretched into the lake, and he leaned forward to pick the few lotus leaves that Liu Ling couldn't pick.

Liu Ling retracted his hand slowly, he accidentally bit her finger.

Liu Ling's fingers trembled slightly, and after she withdrew her hand, she lowered her head and continued to wash the lotus root, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

Shen Yan said, "You're acting affectionate again, aren't you?"

Liu Linghu clapped her hands and splashed water on him, "You care about me?"

Shen Yan blocked it with her hand, "I told you not to splash me with water, you didn't understand, did you?"

Liu Ling didn't take his words seriously, and splashed more joyfully, "What can you do to me? Show me one too."

It is quite interesting to imagine that she and Shen Yan are splashing water on each other at the two ends of the boat.After all, since the relationship between Liu Ling and Shen Yan has gotten better and better, they haven't done any other flirting between lovers.Although she felt a little stupid when she saw others like that, Liu Ling still hoped to do all those stupid things together with Master Shen.

Shen Yan narrowed her eyes and stared at him deeply.He placed his hand on the lake, and Liu Ling looked at him expectantly.Then he struck down heavily with his hand, the force was so ingenious that water rose up in all directions, all splashing in Liu Ling's direction.

The one with big waves is like Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, stretching endlessly.

Moreover, the water hit my body with such a sudden force, and it hurt a little.

Liu Ling was furious and angry, and hid back, "Stop, don't splash me again! Otherwise, I will get angry!"

"That's what I said when you splashed me with water." Shen Yan smiled calmly.

Liu Ling was pushed back by the water that jumped a foot high, and her face turned pale with anger, "I dived! I really jumped!"

Before Shen Yan reached out to pull her, she saw him approaching through Shui Qianzhong, her face was calm, thinking that he was going to bully her.Really helpless, Liu Ling bit her cheek, leaned to the side, and jumped into the water.

Like Shen Yan falling into the water, she jumped into the water without much splash.

Seeing the posture of falling into the water, Shen Yan knew that her water skills were not bad.Therefore, he was not in a hurry, and just stood at the bow of the boat, waiting for her to emerge from the bottom of the water.

Time passed little by little, and at first there were still bubbles rising upwards, but the lake behind was as flat as a mirror, and there was no movement at all.

Shen Yan's face changed slightly, and the smile on his face disappeared, "Are you still coming up?"

No one responded to him.

"Liu Ling!" His tone was severe.

Still no sound.

"Liu Ling, don't make fun of me!"

He suddenly thought of the way she looked at the lake just now, fascinated and jealous.That longing and self-sufficient expression, such a nonchalant change of subject... He regretted it, thinking that he knew she had a psychological shadow on the water, so how dare he rest assured that she went into the water alone?

Without any further hesitation, Shen Yan jumped into the water.

He went deep again and again, looking for him at the bottom of the lake, eager to find him.But among the clear water and white sand, looking around, there is no familiar figure of the girl at all.When he couldn't keep breathing, he came out of the water to take a breath, and then went under the water again.

After going back and forth again and again, his heart became colder and colder, and he could only hold on to his breath, thinking that it would never be like this.

It was just a joke, if it was true... the sun was glaring, the sky was blue, the wind was whistling, Shen Yan was holding on to the edge of the boat, panting heavily.He didn't dare to think about it, he wanted to calm himself down, but the soft sound of the wind was like a funeral song to his ears.

He wanted to think a little bit about Liu Ling's character.

She doesn't want to commit suicide, but it doesn't mean she won't commit suicide.The shadow of the past dragged her behind like a giant beast, making her stooped and staggering... How dare he make such a joke with her?
Closing her eyes, Shen Yan wanted to go into the water again.But this time, he felt something underwater, sticking to his leg, climbing up like a vine.He froze, lowered his head, and looked as far as he could at the bottom of the water.

That dark green shadow floated up slowly like a cloud.Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had misread.But no, in the smooth lake, with his head down, he can clearly see any abnormalities.

His waist was grabbed by a white and slender hand, and there was a sound of water breaking behind him, and a person, dripping wet, stuck up from behind.

Liu Ling's voice was cold, with a slight smile, "You are so boring, you are not scared by me."

He was scared to death by her.

Shen Yan reached behind his back and pulled the girl who was sticking to him to the front.Seeing Mr. Shen's quiet eyes, Liu Ling felt something was wrong.She pursed her lips and explained softly, "Do you think something happened to me? No, I am very good at swimming... I never told you that my mother committed suicide by diving. So after she died, I learned to swim... ...I'm really good at water, you see you have drilled out for so long, I can hold my breath and stay out of the lake."

She couldn't continue because Shen Yan's complexion was too bad.

She had never seen such a terrifying look in his eyes.

Extremely dark, extremely cool, and extremely calm again.When thinking about what big decision he is going to make, and who he is going to attack, he must have this look in his eyes.

Liu Ling almost thought he was going to kill her.

His hand was pressed against her neck, her heart was pounding, and her moist eyes were lowered.She subconsciously thought that if he wanted to kill her and die in his arms, she would also be willing.

She suddenly heard his laughter, the kind of relieved laughter.She looked up at him, and was embraced by him, listening to his warm voice, "Close your eyes, there are weeds on your face and eyelashes."

He held her small face with gentle movements, as if he was afraid of hurting her.His big rough hand brushed her face, and he could still feel his care and care.His warm breath came over, gently blowing the dust on her eyelashes.She was very comfortable being cared for, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up.

She said, "Shen Yan, I heard you calling me, but I thought it was just a game. I just want to surprise you and see how good I am at water. I just want to see you surprised."

He said, "Well, I was surprised, I didn't know you were so familiar with water. Sorry to scare you just now."

Liu Ling smiled at him, smiled, and felt sad again, her nose was sore, and her eyes seemed to be about to shed tears.

She also said to him, "I scared you too, sorry, never again."

Shen Yan hugged her, put her hands on her shoulders, and said in a low voice, "I'm really afraid of you... Liu Ling, if this happens again, think about how lonely I will be if you're not here. Thinking of it this way, maybe you can feel a little better."

Liu Ling's tears still fell, she hugged his neck tightly, "Okay, I'm thinking of you."

Kisses as delicate as raindrops fell on the corners of her eyes and between her eyebrows, and she responded in the same way.

She raised her neck, hooked his hands loosely on the back of his neck, and said hoarsely, "Here?"

"Go back." Shen Yan picked her up and swam to the shore.

The curd-like night mist floated on the lake, and the night wind blew through, leaving only a small boat with no one to cross it.
