The powder on the fat woman's face fell even more. Her eyes shone and she stared at Yan Li shyly. She said in a sweet voice, "Young master's words, your servant and Master Shen are friends. I came here today to remind Master Shen that the room money is not urgent, not urgent."
There weren't many people in this world who dared to say they were friends with Shen Wanzhou.
Huang Shaoyu knew how powerful he was and teased, "Auntie, do you know who this young master standing in front of you is?"
The fat woman glared at him, "Who are you calling auntie? You unscrupulous little bastard, I'm a beautiful girl and I'm in the prime of my youth. If you keep yelling, I'll drag you to see the authorities and beat you up a hundred times. I'll teach you a lesson! "
Huang Shaoyu was shocked by her fierce aura and was stunned for a moment. He laughed dryly and said, "You have such a good attitude."
The fat woman turned back to Yan Li and immediately became affectionate again. "Young Master, you are of noble birth. I wonder if you are thirsty. There is a teahouse just outside the street. If you don't mind, how about we go and have some tea?"
Yan Li took half a step back and coughed, "I'm not thirsty."
"Look at you, you're coughing and you're saying you're not thirsty." The fat woman put on a flirtatious look and said coquettishly, "I'll take a step back and reduce Master Shen's rent by half. How about that?"
She blinked and stared at Yan Li expectantly.
Yan Li couldn't help but take half a step back. He fumbled in his pocket and took out a hundred taels of gold and threw it over. He said calmly, "This is enough for Master Shen to live in for a few years. Either you take the money and leave, or I'll make Master Shen move out."
The fat woman caught the gold note and knew it was real just by feeling it. She could only reluctantly leave with regret and resentment.
"Thanks, I'll pay you back later," Shen Wanzhou said lightly.
"It's all thanks to Senior Brother Shen's help this time," Yan Li smiled and shook his head, "This sword is worth ten thousand taels of gold."
"Did you misunderstand something?" Shen Wanzhou frowned. I'm helping you because of Master's orders, not because of any personal reasons. I'll let it go this time, but don't mention it again in the future. "
Even if a normal person didn't ask for favors to be repaid, they would more or less be a little arrogant.
For such a person to be expelled from the Court Of Sword, it was hard to imagine how powerful his mistake was.
"Let's talk about the future in the future," Yan Li said. "If Senior Martial Brother Shen has nothing to do, why don't we have a drink together?"
Shen Wanzhou thought for a moment and said, "Are you going to treat us?"
"Of course," Yan Li said with a smile.
Huang Shaoyu's eyes lit up and said, "Since there are so many people here, why don't we go to the Tavern Heaven on Earth to take a look?"
"Shallow man!" Ji Hyun-woon immediately shouted.
"Are there no normal men in this world?" Huang Shaoyu shouted loudly, "You, Lord Xiao Wang of the Wang Family, actually don't like women!"
He wanted to cry but had no tears. "Heaven, Earth, please grant me the same!"
"Why does Lord Xiao Wang have to like women?" Ji Hyun-woon snorted coldly.
"I said I'll be the host, you have to listen to me when you want to drink," Yan Li said lightly.
"Drinking without women, so boring," Huang Shaoyu said, bored to death.
…
Yan Li brought the four of them to the cottage halfway up the mountain, where the wine was tasty enough.
They drank until midnight, seeing that Huang Shaoyu and the other two were drunk, Yan Li said to Shen Wanzhou who was already drunk, "Senior Martial Brother Shen, is it convenient for me to ask a question?"
"Ask, ask away …" Shen Wanzhou hiccuped. He hadn't eaten a single bite of food, and half of his body was lying on the wine jar.
Yan Li considered his words, then said, "Why was Senior Martial Brother Shen expelled from the Court Of Sword?"
I … "Shen Wanzhou seemed to have sobered up a lot in an instant, his eyes widened, staring straight at Yan Li.
Yan Li said, "If there's something that's difficult to say, I won't ask."
"Sigh …" Chen Wanzhou suddenly changed from mature and indifferent to sentimental. He slowly sat up and took out a jade pendant with a yellow tassel tied to it. He lowered his head to look at it, and his eyes were filled with deep infatuation.
He sighed, but didn't say anything.
Yan Li saw the meaning, secretly guessing whether it was that person, only that person was not allowed by the secular world. In addition to his attitude towards her, and his reaction when he received the letter, he couldn't help but be more certain.
"What do you plan to do in the future, Senior Martial Brother Shen?" he asked.
Shen Wanzhou's eyes were filled with confusion. "I don't know."
"You don't know?" Yan Li said.
"It wasn't easy for me to find a job to support my family, but it's gone now. What else can I do?" Shen Wanzhou said with a frown.
Something stirred in Yan Li, and he said, "Why don't you become a prostitute?"
"Become a prostitute?" Shen Wanzhou glared at Yan Li.
"Be a bandit," Yan Li said.
Shen Wanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly. "Why?"
"I have a good place to go. It's in the White Tiger Domain's Lu Province City." Yan Li said shamelessly, "If you really have nowhere to go, why don't you go to Lu Province City for a walk, Senior Martial Brother Shen?"
"It's too far," Shen Wanzhou refused without thinking.
"You can change your mind at any time, Senior Martial Brother Shen." This was within Yan Li's expectations. He was not disappointed. After all, it was not easy to invite such an elite.
The two of them chatted for a while. When the hut was about to close for the day, Yan Li paid the bill and woke the other three up. Then, he staggered as he prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute," Shen Wanzhou suddenly said.
Yan Li stood at the door and turned to look at him. "Senior Martial Brother Shen?"
"If you can do me a favor, my life is yours." Shen Wanzhou stared at Yan Li with a burning gaze.
Yan Li was not in a hurry to agree. Instead, he asked calmly, "Why do you think I can help you, Senior Martial Brother Shen?"
"Why?" Shen Wanzhou was taken aback. He thought about it carefully for a moment. "I don't know."
Yan Li smiled. "It's not very calm to entrust your life to someone you don't know at all. Please reconsider, Senior Martial Brother Shen."
"My life is yours only if you can do it," Shen Wanzhou said.
Yan Li thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "Can I ask about the specific content of the commission first?"
"I want to be with her!" Shen Wanzhou said with a very serious expression, as if he was making an oath.
Yan Li thought, 'I knew it!'
He thought about it carefully and felt that it was more difficult than ever. "This matter needs to be discussed at length. I can only promise to help …"
Shen Wanzhou rushed up. "You're willing to help me?" He seemed to be ten years younger, glowing with the brilliance of youth. He ran up excitedly and grabbed Yan Li's hand.
Yan Li felt sad and touched when he saw him like this.
How much did one have to love someone so deeply to be able to discard everything else like a pair of worn-out shoes, even one's own life?
He thought of Ji Zhiyuan and suddenly smelled the fragrance of peach blossoms.
He took a deep breath and said solemnly, "I'll help you!"
