Chapter 209 JiangNan

After seven days of sight-seeing and traveling, Feng Yi Xuan and entourage finally arrived at beautiful JiangNan.

They stopped by the river side which served as the boundary of JiangNan. On the opposite side, the mountains and rivers were like a pair of black and white dragons that were interdependent on one another. In the gentle smoke and mist, a white crane leisurely soared, like a beautiful celestial patrolling the mountains. What delighted Lan You Nian even more was that warm sunlight of JiangNan, and huts along the rivers and lakes giving off a peaceful feeling.

“So beautiful!” Lan Wu jumped off her horse, exclaiming. At this moment, Lan Wu didn’t have any femininity and acted like a crazy girl, but Lan You Nian didn’t show any attempt at stopping her. Standing beside the carriage, An Yi’s eyes were smiling.

Because they’re at JiangNan, everyone changed into some lighter clothing. They disguised as ordinary young masters and misses of merchant background coming out to amuse themselves. That way they won’t be so eye-catching, for a place like JiangNan was the preferred place for many people to go sight-seeing.

Hearing Lan Wu’s exclamation, Lan You Nian couldn’t help ducking out of the carriage. Sure enough, the scent of fresh green intermixed with a flowery fragrance assaulted her nose. From all directions, finely-made winsome pavilion-towers, simple and elegant bamboo lofts, maintaining a harmonious atmosphere with nature. Lan You Nian fell in love with this warm feeling, but she only liked it and didn’t pine for it. No matter how beautiful this place was, without loved ones there, no one would have the desire to stay.

Once Lan You Nian exited the carriage, Feng Yi Xuan did the same. The two’s looks were top-notch. Fortunately, the place their carriage stopped at wasn’t a busy street; otherwise, who knows how many people it will provoke to covet after them. But even so, it still made many of the civilians passing by them were dumbfounded, believing they saw a pair of celestials.

“Young miss, are we to rest at Wu Qing Inn?” Lan Qu was much more self-restrained than Lan Wu. Even with the temptation of this kind of scenery, she still stood by the carriage awaiting Lan You Nian’s orders.

Wu Qing Pavilion had its own property in Jiangnan. There were many places like inns and such. Lan Ren and Lan Feng were already staying at Wu Qing Inn investigating the whereabouts of Heaven’s Tear Heart. Lan You Nian thought they would be going to Wu Qing Inn but it was opposed by Feng Yi Xuan.

When Feng Yi Xuan heard Wu Qing Inn, he felt a faint displeasure, because the words “Wu Qing” made her think of Young Master Wu Qing. Thinking about Nian Nian living at his love rival’s place, Feng Yi Xuan felt the urge to destroy Wu Qing Inn.

“Nian Nian” Feng Yi Xuan grabbed Lan You Nian’s hand, saying a little urgently, “I’ve already prepared a residence. Everything’s been prepared. Let’s go there?” Feng Yi Xuan didn’t want his woman to live at another man’s place. He did actually had people prepare a residence when they departed. The place was arranged according to Nian Nian’s preference. Feng Yi Xuan hoped they will stay there for the time they’re there.

Lan You Nian didn’t discover Feng Yi Xuan’s petty thoughts, neither did she object. Between the two of them, not only Feng Yi Xuan spoiled her unconditionally, at certain times, Lan You Nian put up with Feng Yi Xuan on everything. They were mutually considerate of one another.

“Alright, we’ll go to A’Xuan’s residence!” Before Lan You Nian could offer her opnion, Yu Liu Li hastily spoke. He had come to Jiangnan in the past and knew Feng Yi Xuan had a property here. At that time, he wanted to stay there but didn’t receive permission. For this, he got into a fight with Feng Yi Xuan; of course, the result was a bloody nose and swollen face.

For once, Feng Yi Xuan didn’t give Yu Liu Li a cold look but looked at Lan You Nian with a smile on his face.

Lan You Nian nodded with a smile, “Alright, it’s even more convenient to live at Xuan’s place!” Though it was her own place, there were many inconveniences to living at the inn, for a lot of people came and went from it. If they were to go to Feng Yi Xuan’s place, it would be much better. Lan You Nian trusted Feng Yi Xuan’s place to be absolutely quiet.

Once they finished their discussion, Lan You Nian and Feng Yi Xuan returned to the carriage. The group followed An Yi to Feng Yi Xuan’s residence in Jiangnan.

Lan You Nian had nothing to do inside the carriage; additionally, due to Jiangnan’s warm climate, Lan You Nian playfully stuffed a candied fruit that was placed in the carriage into Feng Yi Xuan’s mouth. Feng Yi Xuan especially disliked eating these sour and sweet foods, but if Lan You Nian personally fed him, he will gladly accept. Even if it was poison, he wouldn’t bat an eyelash. But the last few days Lan You Nian has been feeding Feng Yi Xuan the candied fruits, Feng Yi Xuan felt his teeth were becoming sour. Looking at the candied fruit at the tip of the fair fingertips, the veins on Feng Yi Xuan’s forehead bulged.

But even if his teeth were unbearably sour, Feng Yi Xuan still expressionlessly opened his mouth and consumed the candied fruit, even closed his mouth around Lan You Nian’s fingers, meticulously licking it.

The sensation that traveled from her fingers were like a electric current leaping into her heart, making Lan You Nian recoil for no reason; then, she shot Feng Yi Xuan a glare. But the glaring big eyes, not only did not have any power, were very seductive, making Feng Yi Xuan want to transform into a wolf.

Lan You Nian saw a purple light floating over Feng Yi Xuan’s eyes and hurriedly snatched her fingers back.

Just as Feng Yi Xuan was about to pull Lan You Nian for a kiss, an arrogant voice drifted in from outside, “You people, this young is demands you to stop!” The voice carried a commanding tone which was obnoxious.

From the sounds of it, they were blocking the carriage so the already pulled over. Because the carriage suddenly stopped, Lan You Nian fell into Feng Yi Xuan. Feng Yi Xuan caught Lan You Nian in his arms with his sharp eyes and nimble hands, a smug smile curling up his lips.

Lan Qu and Lan Wu looked at the woman who was riding a horse and blocking their carriage. The reins were already put down as the woman’s horsewhip was pointed at Yu Liu Li and Jing Wu An who were riding beside the carriage, meaning the people she demanded to stop was those two.

Yu Liu Li and Jing Wu An pulled back on the reins, stopping their horse and looked at the arrogant and spoiled woman pointing at them. The two’s face weren’t very good. The two had a higher status than normal people and have never countered a woman who dared to point at them and command them.

Jing Wu An smiled distantly at the woman, asking, “May I ask what this young lady wants?” They came out to sight-see, so Jing Wu An didn’t want to cause any trouble. Jing Wu An was someone who always wears a smile on his face; otherwise, he wouldn’t have become a military advisor at such a young age.

The woman slanted her eyes, carefully scanning Jing Wu An and Yu Li Li and then with a charitable tone, she said to the two, “This young miss has taken a liking to you two and allow you to become guards at this young miss’s home. You won’t have to worry about eat and drink”
