Fuxian Lake is located in the eastern suburbs of Shangjing City. To the north of the lake is a mountain called Youshan.
The mountain is not high, and probably because of the lake, it is shrouded in thick fog all year round, giving people a sense of mystery in a secret realm.
Yu Shuyue and her group of five people rode separately on two small boats. The small boats made it easier for them to enjoy the lotus flowers at close range.
Yu Shuyue and Qi Xiuyao rode together, and Yu Hengyue and Liu Ruoxi and Gu Jingyan rode together.
Originally, Yu Shuyue wanted to be with Liu Ruoxi and the others, but the boat was too small to be together, and Qi Xiuyao's intention to be with her had been made very clear.
Yu Hengyue wanted to intervene and prevent the two of them from being alone, but Gu Jingyan put him on another boat.
Yu Shuyue felt particularly uncomfortable being looked at by someone's fiery eyes at this moment. She was very annoyed that she had inserted the peach wood hairpin he gave her last night into her hair in a fit of enthusiasm this morning.
He looked at her from time to time.
"Your Highness, you have tea."
Yu Shuyue felt uncomfortable and wanted to find something to break the weird silence.
"Thank you Ayue."
How could he not accept the tea she handed over to him? He clearly felt her hand pause when his fingers accidentally touched her warm ones.
At this time, Qi Xiuyao finally realized that he had brought a sense of tension to her, making her uncomfortable. Later, his eyes narrowed.
Don't do anything too hastily. If you really scare her, you will lose more than you gain.
The eyes that were not glued to her body disappeared, and Yu Shuyue let out a long sigh of relief, and then she was able to concentrate on admiring the various lotus flowers that passed by her from time to time.
It was noon now, and there was no heavy fog on the lake. However, there was thick fog near the Youshan Mountain. The Youshan Mountain was hidden in the thick fog, which made it feel like a fairyland.
"There are rumors that there are immortals living in Youshan. Immortals like peace and quiet, so they create heavy fog to prevent mortals from disturbing their tranquility."
Qi Xiuyao saw that her attention was focused on the Youshan Mountain hidden in the thick fog of the lake, and he slowly introduced the legend about Youshan Mountain to her.
"Is it possible that there really are immortals on the mountain?"
There are monsters like Huairang who have lived for more than five hundred years in this world, and it is not impossible that there are immortals.
It's just that although the secluded mountain in front of you looks mysterious, it is actually not high. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a sacred mountain where there are rumors of immortals.
"I don't know. So far, those who wanted to explore Youshan have left and never returned. After a while, the bodies floated on the lake. From then on, few people would think of going to Youshan."
When Qi Xiuyao mentioned Youshan, a dark look flashed across his eyes.
"With such a serious intention to kill, he definitely cannot be a god."
Yu Shuyue couldn't help but shook her head after hearing this, and then asked the boatman to turn the boat's bow and stay away from this weird mountain.
Qi Xiuyao couldn't help but curl his lips as he looked at her. How could she be so cute?
The atmosphere between the two of them was harmonious, but the people on the other boat had different thoughts.
Yu Hengyue was a rough man, and the leisure and elegance of flower appreciation was not suitable for him. He sat alone, sipping tea, and looked in Yu Shuyue's direction from time to time.
One is to be afraid of accidents, and the other is to supervise Qi Xiuyao. As long as he dares to do anything extraordinary, he can help his sister immediately.
Gu Jingyan must be on Qi Xiuyao's side. Seeing how defensive he was, she couldn't help but feel funny.
Although my cousin is quite inhumane at times, he is definitely the most honest when in front of Yu Shuyue, and Yu Hengyue's worries are completely unnecessary.
She really couldn't stand his guarded look, so she took the initiative to chat with him to distract him.
"Little General Yu, this is the lotus cake made by the cook in my house, do you want to try it?"
Looking at the slightly pink pastry handed to him, Yu Hengyue's eyes followed the hand holding the pastry and looked at her.
"Brother Heng Yue doesn't like sweets, why don't Miss Gu give me a taste?"
Liu Ruoxi on the side smiled and said before Yu Hengyue had time to answer, and then took the lotus cake directly from her hand.
She gently took a bite of the lotus cake, showed a satisfied smile, ignored Gu Jingyan and looked at Yu Hengyue and said: "Well, it's really good. I think Ah Yue will definitely like it."
Although Yu Hengyue is relatively slow, he looked at Gu Jingyan's hand that was stained with fine cake crumbs and paused for a while before taking it back. He ignored Liu Ruoxi's words and picked up a piece of lotus cake from the plate on the side and stuffed it in.
In the mouth.
"It's sweet but not greasy and has a faint fragrance of lotus, which is very suitable for this situation. Ah Yue loves sweetness very much, so she will definitely like it too."
Gu Jingyan was unhappy with Liu Ruoxi's rude behavior, but she didn't expect that the man in front of her was comforting her in such a clumsy way. She couldn't help but feel funny in her heart.
She didn't take Liu Ruoxi's low-level and petty approach to heart. She had been in a relationship with the Yu family siblings for more than ten years, and it could be seen that Yu Shuyue cared about this friend very much. This was the first time, and it wasn't a big deal.
She can ignore it.
Gu Jingyan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, but never looked at Liu Ruoxi who was standing aside. She just looked at Yu Heng and smiled softly and said softly: "Don't worry, I've prepared it for Ah Yue. If General Yu doesn't like it, don't force yourself."
."
"No, I never force myself."
As he said that, Yu Hengyue picked up a piece of lotus cake from the plate on the side and stuffed it into his mouth. He told her with practical actions that he really liked this cake and was not trying to deal with her.
Gu Jingyan was amused by his expression and smiled, and now all the slight depression in her heart disappeared.
The more Yu Heng looked at her smiling face, he also raised the corners of his mouth.
The pastries in Liu Ruoxi's mouth suddenly felt dry and hard to swallow before she could swallow them. Her hands tightened involuntarily. Looking at the harmonious scene between the two of them, her presence suddenly seemed redundant.
She admitted that what she had done just now was a bit excessive. Once the feverish moment passed, she also knew that what she had done just now was of great value.
But as soon as the jealousy in her heart arose, she didn't have time to think about it that much.
Yu Hengyue's subsequent series of operations were like a loud slap on her face. She felt her face was burning and felt very uncomfortable.
Sulking, she walked to the bow of the boat and stared at the reflection in the water in a daze.
"Ruoxi, don't move too far to the side, pay attention to safety."
Hearing Yu Hengyue's concern, Liu Ruoxi's dim eyes suddenly brightened up, but when she raised her head to look at him, his eyes had already been retracted, and he was talking and laughing with Gu Jingyan.
Her joyful mood immediately seemed to fall into the abyss. The raised corners of her mouth froze. She bit her lip, feeling a dull pain in her heart.
Yu Heng has changed more and more, and he treats Gu Jingyan differently from her.
