When Shen Lian's figure disappeared into the darkness, Zhu Gaoyu let out a long breath and rubbed his hands. His eyes were shining and his face was full of anticipation.
"System, are you there? I want to draw."
"Ding! At the request of the host, the warhorse lottery card has been activated!”
As soon as the system's voice fell, an image of the prize pool lottery appeared in Zhu Gaoyu's mind.
The few cards rotated back and forth in the flickering light and shadow. After about five seconds, they stopped, and then the card in the center enlarged in Zhu Gaoyu's mind. On the card was an unusually handsome warhorse.
This was…
Cloud-treading Dark Stallion!
Wasn't this…Wasn't this…The warhorse of the Western Chu Overlord Xiang Yu?
When Zhu Gaoyu saw it clearly, he was extremely excited. He rubbed his small hands on the spot and whispered excitedly,
"Quick, quick, quick! I want to see what this Cloud-Treading Dark Stallion looks like!”
As soon as Zhu Gaoyu finished speaking, a black horse appeared out of thin air in the stable.
The divine steed before him had a handsome and fierce physique. Its fur was as soft as black silk, and it shone with a mesmerizing luster under the moonlight, making it impossible for anyone to take their eyes off it.
The most miraculous thing was that its four hooves were as white as snow, without a trace of color.
It could be imagined that when it galloped on the battlefield in the future, it would be as fast as lightning, and its feet would be like stepping on clouds. It was indeed worthy of the reputation of the Dark Stallion!
This Dusk Stallion was originally the mount of Xiang Yu, the Overlord of West Chu. It had followed the Overlord through his entire life of battles and had made countless contributions. It was the number one divine chariot in the Chu and Han Dynasties.
However, bravery was not what satisfied Zhu Gaoyu the most. What satisfied him the most was the loyalty of the Dusk Stallion to its master.
Legend had it that after the Overlord of West Chu committed suicide on the river, the Dark Stallion lost its master and jumped into the river to die. It could be seen that it was loyal and intoxicating.
Now that Zhu Gaoyu had fused with the Overlord's power, this Dark Stallion and him naturally complemented each other even more. He was extremely satisfied.
Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoyu couldn't help but step forward and gently stroke the glossy and smooth mane of the Dark Stallion, chuckling.
"Dusk Stallion, oh Dusk Stallion, this king is very satisfied with you. Eat more fine food in the stable first. In the future, when we conquer the Tartars in the north, you will definitely have a chance to shine!”
"Xilulu-"
Feeling its master's caress, the Dusk Stallion seemed to have sensed something. After snorting, it lowered its head meekly and rubbed its head against Zhu Gaoyu's affectionately, causing the smile on Zhu Gaoyu's lips to widen.
...............
The next day.
Rain Pavilion Teahouse.
Sun Ruowei, dressed in men's clothing, stood on the boat and looked at Zhu Gaoyu, who was craning his neck to look out from the third floor of the Rain Admiration Pavilion.
As soon as the little guy saw Sun Ruowei, he immediately waved his chubby little hands at her with joy and kept greeting her.
Sun Ruowei returned a smile to Zhu Gaoyu, but her gaze became complicated as she looked at him. There was hesitation and pity…
She got off the boat and walked into the Rain Admiration Pavilion. She glanced sideways and saw a group of men sitting on the first floor. A few of the men turned their heads and looked at her with subtle expressions.
Sun Ruowei suddenly remembered her conversation with her father last night.
Father Sun said in a low voice,"Once you enter through the main entrance, our people will see you."
After saying that, he took out a rather exquisite wine pot and placed it on the table. He pointed at the wine pot and continued,
"As long as we deal with this first pot of wine, the rest will be easy.”
"This teapot is called the Rotating Heart Kettle."
Father Sun raised his hand and turned the lid of the pot, demonstrating to Sun Ruowei,
"This turn."
"The next glass is the wine with knockout powder.”
Sun Ruowei's expression turned cold as she looked at Father Sun in shock. Father Sun continued,
"After this glass of wine enters your throat, you will fall into a coma soon.”
Sun Ruowei held her chin, her eyes filled with pity. She lowered her head and said hesitantly,
"Do we really have to do this?"
Father Sun's expression and tone were very calm.
"To achieve great things! You can't be soft-hearted!"
Sun Ruowei shook her head, collected her thoughts, and slowly walked upstairs.
She saw Zhu Gaoyu holding the door frame with his small hand and waiting for her at the door with a smile on his face.
"Miss, you are indeed a man of your word." Zhu Gaoyu rubbed his chin with his small hand and pretended to be deep.
Sun Ruowei looked at his little adult appearance and couldn't help but smile. She walked towards him.
Seeing this, Zhu Gaoyu bent down and said in a childish voice,"Please," before turning around and taking the lead to walk in.
Sun Ruowei curiously looked at the surrounding environment, deep in thought. She heard Zhu Gaoyu say in a tender voice,
"Today, I will be the host.”
"Wouldn't it be great if you and I drank in the wind?”
When Zhu Gaoyu said this, he stretched out his little hand, shook his head, and muttered something. His expression was quite complacent, which made Sun Ruowei laugh.
After saying that, Zhu Gaoyu pulled out a chair for Sun Ruowei in a gentlemanly manner. The back of the chair was quite high, about the same height as Zhu Gaoyu. It looked quite funny when one person sat in the chair together.
Zhu Gaoyu did not care at all. His expression was still complacent. He bent his waist and raised his hand.
"Please."
Sun Ruowei was amused by his small appearance. She nodded slightly and said with a smile,
"Little Daren invited me so warmly, I didn't dare not come.”
After saying that, he walked forward and sat down. Who would have thought that Zhu Gaoyu would even push the back of his chair in a well-mannered manner.
Sun Ruowei was secretly shocked. This child was really strong, but he still had a gentle smile on his face.
"I'm really flattered!"
Then, he looked at Zhu Gaoyu's unfathomable face with a probing gaze and said with a faint smile,
"It's just that I still don't know Little Lord's name.”
Zhu Gaoyu pretended to be deep for a long time, and finally, his cultivation was broken. His small face drooped, and he waved his small hand. He pursed his lips and said indifferently,
"This is not the main point!"
If that wasn't the main point, then what was?!
Sun Ruowei secretly laughed, thinking that this child was really cute.
Zhu Gaoyu picked up the Rotating Heart Kettle on the table with his small hand and poured two glasses of wine. He handed one to Sun Ruowei and picked up another glass himself. With a lazy expression, he said,
"Please."
Zhu Gaoyu stared at Sun Ruowei as she drank the wine. A faint smile appeared on his small face. He flipped the small hand that was holding the wine glass and poured the wine on the ground.
When Sun Ruowei saw this, her expression changed instantly. Looking at Zhu Gaoyu's unfathomable expression, she began to panic, and her eyes revealed a hint of fear.
Could it be…Had he found out?
