"Shopkeeper, help me pack my clothes. I'll take this one and the one I'm wearing. Is your person-in-charge here? I want to see him!"
The shop owner was stunned. With a hint of vigilance in his eyes, he said," You must be joking. We're a small business. I'm the shop owner. There's no one in charge. Here, this is your parcel. You can pay downstairs."”
Shaking his head, he took out the jade pendant with the word Xuan engraved on it and handed it to the shopkeeper." Did your person-in-charge say that Ling Yuxuan is the real master?”
"It's just a jade pendant. Anyone can counterfeit it.”
"The shop owner is quite cautious. Chou Yan has been here before. If he's here, ask him to come to Fuyuan Inn to find me. I'll be leaving first."
After saying that, he threw down the silver, took the clothes and left. The shop owner behind him hurriedly ran to the back hall. A slightly rough but dignified man was sitting in the back hall. He looked at the shop owner who rushed over and asked," What's the matter? Why are you so flustered?”
"Young Master Qiu, a young master came over just now and said that he wanted to see you. He left a jade pendant and asked you to go to the Rich Source Inn to look for him.”With that, he handed over the jade pendant. Qiu Yan took a glance and hurriedly chased after him. Ling Yuxuan was sitting in the lobby of the Rich Source Inn. Qiu Yan saw him the moment he entered the door. He quickly walked over and whispered," Why is Young Master here?"”
"It seems that you've been very busy recently, and your business has improved. You should be able to meet my requirements in half a year.”
"Thanks to the books Young Master gave me, I've learned a lot. In the past few months, I've already grasped a lot of resources.”
"I called you here because I have a mission for you. How many people do we have in Canal Water Town?”
"Chou Kun and a few brothers are there. There was a small problem with the business there, so he went there to solve it.”
"Alright then, tell him to investigate in advance who the county magistrate, Lord Liu, is in close contact with. I suspect that he has something to do with this matter.”
"Alright, Young Master."
"Nichang, I've brought you some clothes. I'm coming in.”
She gently pushed open the door of the room and saw that Ni Shang was already asleep on the bed. She looked at her exposed arm and pulled up the blanket to cover it.
Knock, knock, knock. There was a knock on the door." Guest, I've already brought your medicine back to boil. I'll bring it in for you."”
"Thank you, Second Brother." He took out some silver and handed it to the smiling waiter.
He gently shook Ni Shang."Ni Shang, wake up. It's time to drink the medicine."”
Her fingers accidentally touched Ni Shang's forehead. It was so hot. She had a fever. It was all her fault for being out for so long.
He picked up Nishang and rushed out of the inn to find the nearest medical center." Doctor, doctor, come and see the patient. She has a fever. Hurry up."”
"This lady should have suffered external injuries, which caused her wound to become inflamed and cause her to have a high fever. It's not a serious illness. Young Master, don't be so anxious. I'll give her a medicine for her fever. It should be able to reduce her fever after drinking it.”
After he prescribed the medicine, he returned to the inn and handed the medicine to the waiter. Ling Yuxuan sat by Ni Shang's bed and said," Silly girl, I told you not to come out. You must be injured now. You're unlucky to have met me."”He reached out his finger and scratched the tip of Ni Shang's nose.
Ling Yuxuan used a small spoon to feed the medicine to Ni Shang's mouth. Perhaps she was unconscious and could not drink the medicine at all. He could only drink the medicine himself and feed it to Ni Shang mouth to mouth. After repeating this repeatedly, the medicine was finally finished. The sun was gradually replaced by the moon, and night had completely arrived. He touched Ni Shang's forehead, and the fever had finally subsided.
After a busy afternoon, Ling Yuxuan walked to the side of the bathtub and began to bathe. It had been two days since he last showered, and he felt terrible. He quickly took a bath. When Ni Shang came out of the screen, she was already awake. Her eyes were staring straight at Ling Yuxuan. The wound on her abdomen had already formed a scar, but it looked a little ferocious. Ni Shang just looked at it, and her heart beat faster. She touched her heart and thought strangely,
"Why is it that every time I see Brother Ling like this, my heart beats faster and I even feel that Brother Ling is very sexy? Next time I return to the Glazed Tile Valley, I will ask Master to treat me.”
"Nichang, you're awake. Oh right, I've brewed medicine for you. Drink it first.”
"Okay, big brother Ling. It's dark now, but I just woke up. I don't want to sleep yet, can you bring me out for a walk?”
"Your injury…That's good. Let's go out and see the scenery of this town. I bought you new clothes.”
After putting on her clothes, Ni Shang pulled open the door and walked out. Ling Yuxuan took a look.
"The color and style of this dress really suit you. You've worn the taste of this dress. Not bad, hahaha. You can go advertise now!”
"Advertising? Is it something to eat, or?"
"It's nothing. Let's go and take a look at the bustling area of the town.”
She held Ni Shang's small hand and walked towards a crowded place." Big Brother Ling, there are so many people today. Is there an event?”
Ling Yuxuan pulled a passerby and asked," Auntie, is there any activity in town today? Why is it so lively?"”
"Young man, you must be a foreigner. Coincidentally, today is our town's annual begging for cleverness festival. Many people will come. You can go to the begging for cleverness temple with the little girl to ask for a marriage.”
"Thank you, Auntie!"
"Big Brother Ling, did you know about the festival of begging for cleverness? I haven't had a holiday yet!"
"Let's go shopping slowly. There's no hurry."
Ni Shang pulled Ling Yuxuan to a stall that sold hairbands. She picked one up and looked at it, then tried it on Ling Yuxuan's head. In the end, she chose a white bamboo-patterned hairband and handed it to him.
"Big Brother Ling, let me give you a hairband. Your hairband was broken last time and I see that you haven't changed it.”
She reached out and took the headband. She pulled off the old headband and tied her hair with the new one.
"It's impolite not to come. Follow me.”
The two of them came to the place where Ling Yuxuan bought clothes. The shop owner could tell at a glance that it was the owner of his shop. He respectfully walked forward and asked," Sir, what can I do for you?"”
"Do you have any headwear here?”
"Sir, please follow me. The jewelry is on the third floor.”
Arriving on the third floor, Ni Shang ran to the jewelry shop happily and asked the shop owner about the price. In the end, she always ended up saying that it was too expensive. Ling Yuxuan found it extremely funny. His eyes kept looking at the jewelry. In an inconspicuous corner, he saw a jade pearl hairpin. He picked it up and looked at it. It was simple but elegant.
"Nichang, come here."
Ni Shang obediently ran over. I inserted the pearl hairpin into her hair and nodded in satisfaction.
"Shopkeeper, how much is it? I'll take this."
"Young Master has good taste. This pearl hairpin has been here for so long, but no one has touched it. It is actually the best jewelry in this shop.”
When Ni Shang heard that it was the most expensive, she reached out to take the pearl hairpin.
"Don't take it off. I'll give it to you. It suits you. Store owner, put it on my tab. I don't have that much money to give you now.”
"Alright, Young Master. Take care."
On the way, Ni Shang was jumping around happily. For a small town to be so prosperous, it meant that his big brother was still very outstanding as the emperor.
"Brother Ling, let's write our wishes on paper and throw them onto this big tree.”
Ni Shang ran over to pick up a pen and paper and began to write. Then, she placed the note in her palm, closed her eyes, and threw it onto the tree.
"What wish did Nichang write?"
"I told you, wishes can't be said out loud. It won't come true! Big Brother Ling, write one too."
He picked up his pen, wrote down four big words," The world is peaceful, the people are happy ", and threw them onto the tree.
They came to a river and sat on the steps, watching the people coming and going across them. The adults were smiling like flowers, and the children were laughing.
"Nichang, isn't your Coloured Glass Valley beautiful without the worldly disputes?”
"Where I grew up, it was my home. Master and Eldest Senior Brother were my family. Brother Ling, what about you? As a prince, you should be quite good.”
"Me? Being in the royal family had too much helplessness. Sometimes, one's life was worse than that of ordinary people. Take big brother for example. In the end, he still couldn't be with the person he loved. People only saw our bright appearance as kings, but they didn't know the helplessness in our hearts.”
"Sure, I'll dance for Big Brother Ling.”
He took out the jade flute, and the sound of the flute slowly flowed out. Sometimes it was melancholy, striking the weakness of the soul, sometimes it was cheerful, free and easy, and sometimes it was bold and unrestrained, bold and uninhibited. Coupled with the dance of Nishang, it performed an extraordinary story in this ordinary town.
People stopped to watch the beautiful dance and moving music. After the song, they picked up Ni Shang and jumped over the water, disappearing from everyone's sight.
Ling Yuxuan used his qinggong to arrive on a roof and took out a bottle of wine from his pocket.
"Nishang's dance is getting more and more charming. When she dances, she looks like a fairy.”After saying that, he took a sip of wine.
"Big Brother Ling, actually, it's always your songs that give me inspiration. Listening to your songs, I always feel like you've experienced a lot of bad things. There's more sadness in the song than happiness.”
Snatching the wine from Ling Yuxuan's hand, Ni Shang also took a sip.
"Nichang, I really want to be with you forever. I don't have to care about so many things.”
"Of course. In the future, you can come back to Glass Valley with me. Eldest Senior Brother, Master, we can live together.”
Ling Yuxuan looked at her and smiled bitterly. His finger brushed the tip of Ni Shang's nose and he continued drinking.
She thought to herself," Nishang, you're too naive. You're so naive that I can't bear to bring you to my dark world. Is my world not suitable for you? But I love you. When I realized that I had fallen in love with you, I couldn't stop it. Sigh."
