Li Shiyan puffed out his chest and raised his eyebrows. "With these words, if anything happens to you in the future, I, Li Shiyan, will risk my life to help you."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Zhao Quanzhi's sturdy arm.
"Ah!"
Zhao Quanzhi suddenly frowned and withdrew his arm.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing!" Zhao Quanzhi immediately concealed his pained expression and returned to his normal self. He pushed Li Shiyan's chest and said, "Go away, don't curse me. I don't want anything to happen to me!"
The two of them acted as if they had a deep brotherly love. They chatted casually and ignored the people around them.
The soldier who was about to lock the door urged, "Young Master Zhao, the wine has been delivered. You should leave and not make things difficult for us. If Lord Huang were to find out, we will …"
His face scrunched up into a frown.
Zhao Quanzhi did not want to make things difficult for Li Shiyan. He told Li Shiyan to stay in the room and left with Su Ziluo. Li Shiyan watched them leave. He did not expect that someone would help him when he was in trouble. It seemed that his usual conduct was not that bad. Thinking of this, he felt a little proud of himself. However, he hid it under his eyelids and hid it in his heart.
Yes.
The tall soldier held a lock in his hand and stood in front of him. "Heir, you can go in. I have to lock the door."
Li Shiyan was too lazy to argue with him. He turned around and went in. However, just as he was about to close the door, a stray cat suddenly rushed in.
"Meow ~"
The cat's cry was extremely mournful. It sounded as if someone had used a knife to scrape a person's bones, causing his spine to tighten.
"Where did this cat come from?" The black cat jumped onto the table, and Li Shiyan placed the jug of wine that Zhao Quanzhi had brought for him onto the table. As the cat jumped onto the table, the jug of wine was knocked to the ground, and with a "Kuang Dang" sound, it was smashed into smithereens.
The fragrant wine spilled all over the floor. It was accompanied by the broken pieces of the jar and the dust on the floor. It was a very turbid scene.
"Aiya!" Li Shiyan's voice was high.
He was stunned. It wasn't easy to get a jar of wine, but now it was knocked over by a cat that came out of nowhere. Not only was it a pity, but it was also very vexing. Li Shiyan's anger rushed to his chest, and he stared at that hateful black cat. He raised his hand and waved it down, but the black cat dodged in time, and when he waved his hand, it instantly jumped to the ground, and its four paws stepped on the osmanthus wine that was flowing all over the ground. Perhaps it was attracted by the smell of the wine, and it even stuck out its tongue and licked it a few times.
Then, he contentedly slipped through the crack in the door.
He fled without a trace!
Li Shiyan was extremely angry, but that black cat had disappeared without a trace. It was very difficult to find it.
"Damned cat, if I catch you again, I will definitely not let you go. I will definitely teach you a lesson." He scolded as he waved his sleeves a few times.
The elite soldier was also angry at the scene, but just as he was about to comfort him, Li Shiyan threw him out. He didn't even allow him to clean up the broken pieces on the floor. The elite soldier couldn't say anything, so he obediently retreated and locked the door.
Li Shiyan's face turned red with anger, and he kicked away the broken pieces on the floor …
After leaving the Water Moon Pavilion, Zhao Quanzhi cautiously walked to Su Ziluo's side.
To be more accurate, he was nervous! He knew that Su Ziluo was a taciturn and indifferent person. Usually, he didn't like to speak, but his mind was very sharp, and he could always grasp a person's sore spot. Previously, when he and Li Shiyan went their own way in Yan Jing, he had seen Su Ziluo several times.
Every time he mentioned Li Shiyan, he would always hear him hit the nail on the head. Therefore, he was afraid that he would be rude in front of Su Ziluo, or perhaps say something wrong. He was extremely nervous and even cautious.
Su Ziluo looked at him and indifferently asked, "Is Young Master Zhao afraid of me?"
"Ah?"
Zhao Quanzhi was dumbfounded.
He didn't expect Su Ziluo to ask such a question. For a moment, he could only let out an "Ah". He didn't know how to answer, and instead felt a burst of awkwardness. Lele smiled and quickly waved his hand, saying, "How could that be? General Su is amiable and approachable, why would I be afraid of you? Let's talk again.
I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I be afraid? "
Su Ziluo smiled, "Since you're not afraid, then you must be nervous."
"Ah … this … General Su is a capable person, and I'm naturally nervous in front of you. Moreover, you know about the absurd things that happened between me and the heir in Yan Jing, so I feel a bit awkward seeing you."
'He's a person who speaks the truth!'
The smile on Su Ziluo's face deepened. Both of their courtyards were in different directions, so when they reached a fork in the road, they said their goodbyes and left. However, a dog suddenly appeared out of nowhere and leaped straight at Su Ziluo. Fortunately, Qi 'er's eyes were sharp and her hands were quick.
The wheelchair swerved to the side and the dog missed its target.
"Woof, woof, woof …" The yellow dog was unwilling to give up and continued to pounce. Su Ziluo's hand was already on the wheelchair's mechanism, waiting for the dog to pounce on him. He didn't expect that before the yellow dog could get up, Zhao Quanzhi would press down on its head.
Then, he scratched the back of its ear a few times and patted its nose. His strange actions puzzled the onlookers. What was the meaning of his actions?
But in the blink of an eye, the raging yellow dog calmed down and suppressed its violent nature. It obediently lay on the ground, motionless, and only whimpered a few times.
Seeing this, Su Ziluo removed his hand from the mechanism. His expression was indifferent, as if he wasn't affected in the slightest.
Qi 'er asked, "Young Master, are you alright?"
In fact, even if Su Ziluo didn't act, Qi 'er could have used force to restrain the dog, but Zhao Quanzhi was one step faster.
Su Ziluo softly replied, "I'm fine!" Zhao Quanzhi stood up and clapped his hands. He tidied up his wrinkled clothes and stared sharply at the dog lying on the ground. He inadvertently reached out to touch his arm and said, "Why are all the dogs in Ning 'an Villa behaving like this? Move!
If they don't move, they will open their mouths to bite. It's as if we owe these beasts something. "He looked at Su Ziluo and inquired," General Su, are you alright? "
"I'm fine. Thank you, Young Master Zhao."
"It's nothing, it's just a dog."
"The way you grabbed the dog just now was a bit strange. This dog is obviously fierce, so how did it become so obedient after you touched it?"
"I have many dogs at home, so I know them better."
"I see." Su Ziluo gave him a deep look.
Zhao Quanzhi didn't think much of it. He only subdued a dog.
The manservant from the villa ran over from afar. When he arrived in front of Su Ziluo, he panicked and quickly knelt on the ground. "General Su, Young Master Zhao, this lowly one didn't look after this dog. It's this lowly one's fault. Please forgive me!"
His voice trembled.
Zhao Quanzhi glared at him and reprimanded, "What kind of dog do you think you are? Why did it suddenly come out and bite people? What if it really hurt General Su? Are you going to pay with your life? "
"It's this lowly one's fault. I ask General Su to spare my life!"
"Forget about your fault? What a bunch of useless slaves. "Zhao Quanzhi burned with anger.
The manservant trembled.
Su Ziluo didn't show the slightest bit of anger. He only asked, "Is this the dog that bit the corpse?"
"No, the dogs that gnawed on the corpse have been locked up."
"Are the dogs in the villa usually so violent?"
The manservant replied, "They're usually fine, but I don't know what happened to them these past few days. They always bark and run around. "
Su Ziluo's eyes dimmed. He seemed to be deep in thought. He then waved his hand. "Forget it. Take the dog away."
"Yes." The manservant got up and hurriedly pulled the dog away.
Zhao Quanzhi was still indignant. He said, "If it were up to me, we should have killed that dog to prevent it from coming out and biting people again."
Su Ziluo's tone was cold. "Since it's just a beast, why bother with it?"
Zhao Quanzhi's face froze.
'What should I say?'
Su Ziluo thanked him again and parted ways.
Before leaving, Qi 'er intentionally glanced at Zhao Quanzhi.
