Chapter Ninety-Six: The Boat Sails on the Water
"That's right, I'm a little old with the owner of Sulong Island, but for some inconvenient reason, I have a dislike, and now I see that the two should be his friends, so I want to bother the two of them to be a lobbyist, and after the fact, there will be a lot of thanks. β
I didn't expect Shen Yu and Qing Zhu to know each other, but they may not be able to help in this matter, not long ago, they offended him. Zhiying looked at Ling Jun, afraid that he would be unhappy, but he just smiled faintly and said, "This matter can only be said to be doing his best." β
Lord Qing nodded, expressing understanding, "That's natural, as long as the two of you are willing to go to Shuilong Island with me, you will be grateful if you say a few words when necessary." I'll send someone to settle the two of you, and when we explain what is going on here, we'll set off immediately. β
Zhiying couldn't bear to spoil the interest of the green lord, and waited until there was no one around: "I think we are so unkind, the front foot was scolded by Shen Yu, and the back foot took the green lord over, are you sure he will give us a good look?"
"You don't know that. Ling Jun smiled mysteriously at her.
Zhiying blinked suspiciously, puzzled.
That night, the green lord held a banquet to entertain them, and Zhiying looked at a table of fish and shrimp and was amazed. In addition to the usual carp, crucian carp, cod, shrimp, crab, and many unknown seafood, Zhiying looked at a plate of red fish and did not dare to put down the chopsticks.
"This is the famous Arowana in Qinghai, not only the meat is fresh and tender, but also has the effect of nourishing blood and invigorating qi. β
Zhiying was very embarrassed by the warm hospitality of the green master, she looked at the half-cooked fish, and felt that it was difficult to swallow, but Ling Jun calmly sandwiched a piece. Seeing that Lingjun had eaten the fish fillet, instead of having an appetite, she felt creepy, and she felt an irrepressible nausea deep in her throat.
"When is the Qing Lord going to leave for Sulong Island?" Zhiying forced himself to divert his attention, no longer staring at the scarlet fish in a daze.
"This," he pondered for a moment, as if he was considering, "the wind has been in the wrong direction for the past two days, and as soon as the wind turns in the direction, we will set off, and this time everything is simple, we will try to go back as soon as possible." β
Is he in a hurry? Zhiying thought about this question, or maybe he had a lot of affairs as a young master.
After the meal, Zhiying and Lingjun enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the seabed in the company of their servants. It's not as bright as on land, but the dim light shines on the priceless gems, reflecting the incomparably magnificent colors, and everything is so dazzling, Zhiying feels that Qionglou Yuyu is not enough to describe the grandeur of this place. She reached out and touched the cold, shiny wall, and she didn't know what material it was made of, the glazed tiles were eclipsed in front of it, and the bronze and porcelain were crude and unelegant. She suddenly wondered what the Heavenly Court was like, and which one was more amazing than this one.
Ling Jun looked at her quietly from the side, at this time Zhiying was like a curious child, eager to explore the unknown, he thought this kind of Zhiying was very cute, rather than serious and deep, even painful and paranoid, he hoped that she could always be carefree.
"By the way, Ling Jun, why are you lying to the green master?" she said softly, retracting from her servant, snuggling up to his shoulder.
"What lie?" Ling Jun didn't understand what she meant for a moment.
"Why do you say I'm your junior sister?"
Ling Jun smiled and asked without answering, "Why do you say?"
"I don't know, I don't know. Zhiying shook her head. She suddenly covered her eyes and said angrily, "Oh, don't laugh anymore." Ling Jun's smile was so lethal that Zhiying only felt that her heart was about to jump out, and at this time she understood the meaning of "thrilling".
However, Ling Jun refused to let her go, and asked almost forcefully: "What do you say, why do you say it?"
"I don't know, I don't know!" Zhiying responded indiscriminately while avoiding his confinement, and finally couldn't dodge it, so he played a trick, "It's not fair, you're so unfair!"
Ling Jun ignored her noise, hugged her with his backhand, opened his mouth to hold her earlobe, sucked carefully, held Yingying, softened his body, and Ling Jun took the opportunity to push her against the wall. With a fiery chest in front of her and a cold wall behind her, Zhiying wandered between ice and fire, this huge contrast made her almost crazy, she unconsciously clinged to Ling Jun's arm, wanting to get closer to him, closer to him, until the two were intimate and merged.
"Lingjunβ" she gasped, struggling to call his name, she wanted to make sure it wasn't her wishful thinking. Even if the two have expressed their intentions, she still feels that she has gained and lost, this uneasiness has always been with her, she doesn't understand what is going on, she wants to ask Lingjun, but she gets a deeper kiss.
Ling Jun was immersed in a beautiful kiss, he liked the easy-going and natural atmosphere when the two were alone, this kind of freedom, even unscrupulousness made him feel happy, and he was extremely eager to hope that the two could be together for a long time, not asking about the world, only talking about Fengyue. He thought, once the matter of Sulong Island is over, he will take Zhiying to Yinsi, and stay with her day and night, it is as dark as here, although there are not so many gorgeous buildings, but there will always find new and interesting things, and he will not let her get bored.
"Hold on to it, I promise we'll be together forever, I promise. Ling Jun said in between kisses.
Zhiying tilted his head, melted into his tenderness, and trembled: "Yes, we will be together forever." β
At the end of the kiss, both of their faces were red like words, their eyes were facing each other, Zhiying was shocked by the boldness and enthusiasm just now, she subconsciously looked around, and was relieved that she didn't notice anyone passing by. "It's not going to happen. She muttered, whether Ling Jun could hear it or not.
Ling Jun regained his composure, and he was like a jade gentleman again, he calmly took Zhiying's hand, pulled her and walked forward slowly, and said, "If my expectations are good, we should set off in three days." β
"Yes, you also look at the direction of the wind?"
"It's not that hard. Ling Jun disagreed.
Zhiying knew that he had a long life, and what he saw and learned was by no means comparable to ordinary people, and she only had a share beyond her reach, but she was still unwilling: "If I were not a fairy, just an ordinary person, would you still be willing to be with me?"
"Of course, I didn't know you on the first day. β
Zhiying was not satisfied with this answer, "I know, you knew me when I was still Yan Huan. And it was also in that life that she fell in love with her, she sometimes wondered, does Ling Jun love Yan Huan more or love Zhiying more? She knows that she is simply asking for trouble, obviously it is her, but it is not her, she is jealous of another self.
At this time, Ren Lingjun is well-informed and resourceful, and he will not understand Zhiying's thoughts, he only knows that Zhiying is suddenly unhappy, but he doesn't know the reason, and finally Zhiying smiled and revealed the matter.
Three days later, as Ling Jun expected, they set off for Shuilong Island. The ship was the same as before, but this time the flag of the Qinglin Hall was raised, and the blue background was embroidered with white waves, and in the distance was the appearance of a palace. Although there is only one ship, the momentum is undiminished, which fully reflects the majesty of the green lord.
The young girl is also on the boat, although she is still veiled, but Zhiying knows that she is unhappy, you can call it a woman's intuition, but this intuition is more accurate than divination.
There was no one around, Zhiying and the green girl stood side by side, and the sea breeze blew the corners of their skirts high, as if fairies descended to earth.
"If there is anything unhappy, just say it, as a woman, I will keep it a secret. "Zhi Ying is empathetic.
"Can you tell I'm unhappy?" the young girl's eyes widened in disbelief.
"It's not that hard. Zhiying disagreed, and at this time she finally realized Ling Jun's mood when he said this.
"Then youβ" The young girl stopped talking, as if she was worried.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to go to Sulong Island?"
"Not bad, but I have to go. β
"Why?"
"Because... You're so smart, you can't be surprised. β
Zhiying was puzzled, what should she think of?
"Lord Qing, my father, wants to marry me to the master of Sulong Island. β
"What!" Zhiying was dumbfounded, "how is this possible!"
"How could it be, that's what my father was going to do. β
Zhiying looked at her, thinking of Shen Yu's temper, she only felt that it was very difficult for these two to be husband and wife, and she didn't know what this green lord thought.
"The owner of Sulong Island and my father are old acquaintances, and the two of them stopped interacting because of my mother's fight, and now that you two have a good relationship with him, I want to take this opportunity to renew my friendship with him. β
Zhiying was dumbfounded when she heard this, thinking that this was the end. Mo said that there was no hope for this matter, and even if there was, Shen Yu had to send them off behind closed doors when he saw them.
"This, young girl, you should have told me earlier. β
"I didn't know you well before, and besides, I can't contact outsiders at will, where is the opportunity to talk. β
Zhiying knew that she was telling the truth, but the question now was, how could Shen Yu talk about marriage calmly? Moreover, if he used his daughter to compensate without getting his mother, according to Shen Yu's arrogant nature, would he faint directly?
"Actually, I don't want to get married. The young girl said again. She has lived in isolation since she was a child, deliberately distinguishing herself from her surroundings, just to show her noble status, and now she is directly talking about marriage with a person she doesn't know, how can she accept it, she doesn't even know how to get along with that person.
Zhiying can understand the young girl's mind to some extent, the wishful thinking of the young lord has caused her a lot of trouble, but she can't resist, so she can only be stuffy in her heart, taking one step at a time.
Zhiying felt that she couldn't control this matter, but still said: "As far as I know, the master of Sulong Island is not a good person, if you don't have the heart, don't be too enthusiastic, so that your father can understand that it is impossible for you." β
Qingnu nodded, "I see." β
