280 Untitled (2/2)
”But I heard that someone has the habit of entering the wrong room.” Someone was digging up old dirt.
Meng Fuyao's face darkened as she said, ”I won't enter wrongly today, firstly, I didn't drink, and secondly, I've already asked Tie Cheng to put a mark on the room he prepared for me.”
All the cabins on the boat looked the same, and Meng Fuyao was afraid that someone would use the excuse of ”entering the wrong room,” and hence, she had called Tie Cheng to create a mark on each of the rooms. Tie Cheng had already told her that the first room was hers, marked with a salted fish, and Zhangsun Wuji's was marked with fishbones.
”Is that so?” Zhangsun Wuji smiled faintly and tapped the room door, saying, ”That's right a mark.”
Meng Fuyao raised her head only to see fishbones dangling from the top…
”Shameless, you changed the mark!” Meng Fuyao cursed angrily.
Zhangsun Wuji merely smiled and waved a hand. A cat wriggled out from under the bed with a ”meow,” and he patted its head tenderly, praising, ”Good kitty, you eat very fast.”
”Eeeee—” Lord Yuan Bao let out an ear-piercing shriek and dove into the deepest folds of Meng Fuyao's robes…
Zhangsun Wuji got up and pulled Meng Fuyao over, still smiling. ”It doesn't matter which room is the right one or not, come, let's look at the water view together.”
The cabin room was only that big, and it was difficult to turn around, so Meng Fuyao sighed and squeezed by his side. The two of them leaned against each other as they watched the water ripples on the surface of the river. There was a certain quality to the quietness and tranquility around them, and after a while, Meng Fuyao said, ”If you can think of this, why not think about how we can get to Tong City quicker.”
”Isn't it great now?” Zhangsun Wuji chuckled. ”Based on the current situation, going by water is the safest route. Earlier on, the gang was performing their ceremony, so the surroundings are clear, and there isn't a single boat around. Right now, nobody under the heavens knows where you and I are located.”
”Your hidden guards and my soldiers don't know as well,” Meng Fuyao reminded. Sighing, she said, ”There is good and bad.”
”Earlier, I had a little chat with the boat's chef upstairs,” Zhangsun Wuji tried changing the topic. ”He said that these three boats belong to the elite of the gang, and after the ceremony, they had originally intended to stop at a harbor and participate in the Green Forest Alliance Conference held by the Guangcheng County. According to him, it's because the bandits that Eleventh Prince had bribed were disrupting the martial balance in the northern region of the Green Forest. Apart from the clans that Feng Jingrui had bribed, the others did not want any relation with them, yet also did not want to declare enemies with Feng Jingrui. This Green Forest Alliance Conference was set up to select a Green Forest Alliance Leader to fight against Feng Jingrui.”
As Meng Fuyao listened, her eyes slowly started to light up with a sly glint, her eyes rolling around in their sockets as she thought. Zhangsun Wuji's lips curved slightly and immediately planted a kiss on her forehead. Before she could react, he'd already let go and said, ”I'm going to sleep.”
Meng Fuyao was about to get back at him for sneaking a kiss on her but was surprised that he suddenly let go and temporarily forgot to punish him. She yawned lazily and lay down to sleep, faintly hearing ceaseless reports coming from below the deck.
”Report, I need to pee!”

…
She snorted and closed her eyes.
As she slept, she rolled around on the bed, feeling as if something was amiss, yet she couldn't tell what was amiss. She patted the bed and sat up, but she still couldn't sense anything, so she lay back down to sleep, thinking, 'What is it? What is it?'
In the middle of the night, she suddenly felt the board beside her disappear and the bed shift, then… A pair of arms reached out, and she smelled the familiar faint fragrance as her entire being was swept into a certain person's warm embrace.
That person's eyes were glinting in the dark like a pearl in a cave as he said in a calm yet assertive tone, ”I've said before, it doesn't matter which room is right or wrong, this board… is movable.”
Meng Fuyao: ”…”
”Besides.” The godforsaken scoundrel continued, ”Your bed is right next to mine, it was meant to be together. Once the board is removed, it becomes one bed. You and I were sleeping on the same bed to begin with.”
Meng Fuyao, tearfully, ”…”
”Fuyao, look.” Zhangsun Wuji blew gently on her forehead, then on her nose, followed by her lips. He chuckled softly and said, ”We really do have fate, even on a random boat we are fortunate enough to share a bed.”
'Fate your head…' Meng Fuyao was already in tears… '@#$% you, if we have fate then why did you block my meridians?'
