C25 (2/2)
Bai Zhixi slapped his palm on the table, scaring the rest of the people to the point that they shot dissatisfied gazes at her.
She smiled as she replied. Since everyone saw how beautiful she was, they didn't make a fuss about it. After watching for a while, they once again enjoyed the delicacies in silence.
”Miss, may I ask what you need?” It's lunchtime now, so please don't disturb other people's meal, okay? ”
The girl who greeted her just now looked at her with a gentle gaze. That soft and gentle voice matched her appearance. No one would dare to make a ruckus.
If a lady who served tea was already so beautiful, then her master must be pretty good as well!
Bai Zhixi said apologetically. Luckily the veil covered half of her face and gave Lan Yi a disguise that no one else could recognize. Otherwise, it would really be too embarrassing.
”I'm sorry, this is the first time my young miss has come, I'm a little excited.”
Lan Yi looked at her apologetically, and secretly stuffed silver into her hands, but the lady did not accept the money, she only pushed it away with a smile.
Seeing this, Bai Zhixi really admired the boss behind the scenes. How could he have a perfect management system?
”It's nothing. Miss, please wait for a moment. The dishes you ordered will be ready soon.”
Actually, Bai Zhixi did not eat anything, one, it was inconvenient for her to wear a veil, and secondly, her lips had not even disappeared, so her mouth was hurting a lot.
After a while, a steaming pot of mandarin duck was served. Just looking at it was enough to stimulate her stomach. Along with the fragrance that assailed her nose, it was the familiar smell of a spicy hot pot which was suitable for eating in this cold winter.
”Miss, can you eat like this?”
Lan Yi sat on the opposite side with his hands on his cheeks, looking at Bai Zhixi worriedly.
He had originally wanted to buy some ointment for the Miss, but after strolling around for a long time, he actually forgot about this matter.
”En...” Lan Yi, go and ask the shopkeeper if there are still rooms upstairs. ”It's not convenient for me …”
Earlier, she was too focused on inquiring about the person behind the scenes and didn't want to eat here. Now that she wanted to eat, and couldn't take off her veil in public, she could only see if there was a room upstairs.
”Okay, miss, wait for me here for a moment.”
Lan Yi stood up and walked over to the shopkeeper's side, and whispered something to him, and was quickly brought up to the second floor.
The moment she went up to the second floor, Bai Zhixi once again felt that scorching gaze. It was as if someone was monitoring her, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
She habitually looked around, her gaze stopped at the half-open window on the third floor opposite her. In the room covered by a gauze curtain, there was a faintly discernible figure that seemed to be looking at her, but why was she so familiar with the outline? However, she did not know who the person was.
”Miss, please come in. Please sit here for a moment. I'll bring the dishes to you right away.”
The girl pushed open the exquisitely designed door. Bai Zhixi stepped into the room and looked around. Compared to the noise on the first floor, this room was quiet and elegant.
What was eye-catching was the pot of red plums on the windowsill. Flowers bloomed, the wind blew, the cold wind blew, and a faint fragrance entered his nose, adding a touch of color to the monotonous room.
”Miss, the wind is strong at the window, let's sit down and rest for a bit!”
Lan Yi saw that his young miss was staring at Hong Mei in a daze, so he decided to check her pulse to see if she had gotten an old illness.
”Lan Yi, how did you get the owner of the stage to agree to let us go upstairs to eat? I seem to recall that the second floor was reserved in advance? ”
Bai Zhixi turned around and sat on the soft couch. She lightly took a sip of the dessert with a refreshing fragrance that didn't have the sweetness of the modern day.
”Oh, Miss. Originally, we didn't have a room today, but we didn't want to check out our previous guest, so we got lucky.”
Even though Lan Yi calmly answered the question on the surface, he still nervously pulled on his sleeve, but he quickly recovered, as if nothing had happened at all.
”Oh, really? Looks like our luck is really good! Quickly eat, after we're done, we'll go to the blacksmith. ”
Lan Yi's actions just now did not escape her eyes. Ignoring the fact that no one knew that she was the daughter of the Prime Minister, just by looking at the luxurious design, without enough silver, it would be difficult to step into the second floor.
From what she knew, the original body used to be a fool. All these years, the Prime Minister's Estate only fed her to the point of being full and warm, not giving her any silver.
Similarly, in the Sky Room on the third floor of Love Sea, a faint dragon's saliva filled the entire room. As Jun Mohan sat there playing chess by himself, he didn't know where he had landed on the chess pieces.
”Jun Mohan, you black-hearted bastard, come out if you have the guts, I'll fight you to the death.”
I have never heard his voice before, but this unrestrained and unrestrained voice had a hint of gnashing of teeth, yet it did not make our prince Lord raise his head, instead he threw the teacup in his hand towards the door, as though he heard the man's painful curses.
Then, with a speed as fast as the wind, he rushed to stop in front of Jun Mohan, pointed a fan at him, and glared at him.
