After Li Tianliang had dinner, he tucked the little bun on the bed, closed the doors and windows, and walked to Mr. Qi's door next door. He stood there, hesitating, wondering... whether he should knock or not.
Waiting for someone to bathe and return the favor?
This is so inconsistent with Miss Lu's style. This is simply not what Lu Lan would do!
Whether it was a fight or a verbal argument, she had never surrendered to a man before, but now she was defeated by this man again and again, and she felt helpless.
If so, she wouldn't stand here with her hands raised, like crazy, knocking on the door of a man waiting for her to serve.
The only strange thing is that she, Miss Lu, doesn't like to break her promises and is naturally upright.
As soon as she raised her hand to knock on the door, she felt the whole inn rumble and tremble three times. Her whole body rushed forward and she unintentionally pushed the door open and broke into his room.
Mr. Qi didn't hold a lamp, so he was leaning on the couch and reading in the moonlight. He was turning the pages of the book he had finished with one hand, but unexpectedly, the room shook and the pages fell down.
He looked up and saw an arrogant and weird little elf that broke into his room without permission.
Tianliang frowned inexplicably, looked towards the source of the earthquake, and whispered dissatisfiedly: "What happened?"
It's not that she's not here, that bug is messing with something else.
"Miss Li, why are you in such a hurry?"
A somewhat casual tone rang in her ears. Tianliang raised her head and saw that the person who had been leaning on the step had moved in front of her at some point.
It was dim in the room, but Mr. Qi's dark eyes were extremely bright. They seemed to be not as deep and unpredictable as usual, but had a touch of warm glazed color.
She stared blankly for another moment.
Qi Xuan leaned down, held the book in his right hand, and tapped her forehead, "When I ask you questions, you have to answer them. Don't just look at me."
At this point, Tianliang was awakened.
She pushed him, opened the book in his hand, and said angrily: "Reading in the middle of the night without lighting up, are you a freak?"
"You want to hold the lamp?" He smiled in a deceptive way.
A flash occurred in Tian Liang's mind, and he understood the meaning behind his words.
When his four words are translated, the hidden meaning is————
You are here to wait for me to take a bath. I am so considerate to prevent you from being shy and not holding the lamp. But does Miss Li want to be honest with me?
"A bath?" Tian Liang stood up, folding his hands and making a clicking sound, as if preparing for a battlefield, "How do you take a bath?"
"Why is Miss Li so excited?" He said again casually, picked up the book she had knocked down, flicked the dust off, walked to the table and put it down.
Take a deep breath and don't get angry.
This person twisted other people's words, spoke gently and sarcastically, and his ability to make her angry was first-rate.
"Miss Li, come here."
He gave a gentle order.
"What are you doing?" She stood there, watching him begin to untie the belt around his waist, retreating instead of moving forward, and warned: "You don't want me to take off your clothes, do you? Mr. Qi is such an adult, he doesn't even know how to put on clothes."
Take off?"
"What are you thinking about?" he sighed. "There is a bathtub behind the screen. If you open the plug on the side of the bathtub, you can bring in the hot spring water."
It turned out that he wanted her to let go.
but……
Who is delusional? She doesn't even want to mention him or take another look at him. Why would she still be delusional about him? It's so narcissistic.
"Okay, I'll release the water for Mr. Peacock."
She smiled, turned directly behind the screen, and followed the instructions.
Mr. Qi didn't pay attention, and just replied softly outside the screen, "It's better than being unloved."
Click!
The bathtub plug that had just been pulled out from the side of the bathtub was shattered in Tianliang's hands... crushed to pieces.
"This is the spring water brought specially for the upper room. Although the water flow is not turbulent, it needs this special bolt to block it." Mr. Qi took off his robe and put it on his cloak, then he wore a white suit.
Wearing a thin shirt, he walked into the screen and looked at the cool sky with a smile.
He kindly reminded, "Miss Li, if there is a flood here, hundreds of thousands of taels of gold will not be enough to compensate for many items."
Tianliang stared at him and narrowed his eyes.
Well, for the sake of saving Baozi, she will bear it!
"Sir, please wait a moment. I'll go downstairs and ask the shopkeeper for another bolt."
"Changle Pavilion."
After Mr. Qi said the name of his room, he stood there without moving, looked at her, and waited quietly.
Tian Liang hurriedly ran down with long strides, reached the bottom in one breath, found the shopkeeper, and asked: "Shopkeeper, the wooden bolt that leads to the spring in Changle Pavilion is broken. Can you please give me another one."
Mr. Qi lived in Changle Pavilion, and everyone in Tianfeng Pavilion knew it, so without saying anything, the shopkeeper immediately bent down to ask for the wooden bolt that matched the room in Changle Pavilion.
"My boss..." Seeing the shopkeeper Xun sweating profusely, the landlady reminded her in a low voice, "You forgot! Just in case, Mr. Qi took away the wooden bolt and put it in the drawer under the table in Changle Pavilion.
It’s here.”
The shopkeeper woke up and turned around to explain!
As soon as he turned his head, he saw that the dashing and sultry girl had long since disappeared.
Kicking open the door, he strode in in the cold weather, and went straight to the screen. He saw that the room was safe, the barrel was filled with hot air, the water temperature was just right, and the wooden plugs were in place. Mr. Qi took off his clothes, sat in the barrel, and closed the door.
With my eyes resting and my mind resting, I am having a great time taking a bath!
Tianliang bent down, lying on the barrel, and raised his eyebrows, "Mr. Qi, is it fun to play with me?"
He opened his eyes with a bit of charm, looking a little innocent and confused, and apologized: "Qi has a bad memory, so I kept it in the drawer. Miss Li, please don't mind."
She pursed her lips and killed him with her eyes.
"Do you think I won't mind being tricked by this clumsy trick?" She asked back, with a threatening smile on her face, "Sir, there is also a skill in lying, how about it be more advanced?"
"That's it." Mr. Qi gave her a meaningful look, "Miss, you originally wanted to stay in the room and watch me undress and take a bath. It was Qi who didn't understand."
Snapped--!
Tianliang punched the water, causing a foot-high splash, "Qi, you pissed me off!"
