Chapter 213: Flattery
It turned out that what Xiao Mu was worried about did not happen, in fact, from the time Lin Yi walked in excitedly, Xiao Mu could surmise that this female madwoman definitely thought of a good name for the palace maid Xiaohong, so she hurriedly came to show off to herself.

Xiao Mu's conjecture was not wrong at all, after Lin Ye came, in front of Wang Chengen and the other eunuchs and palace maids, although he was still patient and tried his best to show the dignified atmosphere of being a queen, but in fact, his face was full of can't hold back her mood of wanting to show off, even Xiao Mu, who has always thought that he can't observe words and feelings, can see that if Wang Chengen and them are not sent out, it is estimated that Lin Yi may not be able to hold on to be exposed immediately.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Mu ordered Wang Chengen and them to go down first, Lin Yi over there breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was very tired, and complained about Xiao Mu's speed, "You are really his ink, and you have been delaying sending them away because you want to see my joke?" β
"I'm already fast, okay?" Xiao Mu first defended himself, but he also knew that he would definitely not have the upper hand if he was entangled with Lin Yi on this issue, and in the end, he was afraid that he would have to bow his head and admit defeat, so he simply led the topic to the topic, "I remember that I just left from you, right?" Are you in such a hurry to find me, is there something wrong? β
In order to divert Lin Ye's attention from complaining about his slow speed, Xiao Mu decisively chose to ask knowingly - knowing that Lin Ye must have come to him to show off because of a good name, but he didn't say anything, but asked with a puzzled look.
Xiao Mu's approach was very successful, and when he heard him ask about his intentions, Lin Yi over there really didn't dwell on the trivial issue of why Xiao Mu didn't drive Wang Chengen and them away for a long time, but said with excitement on his face, "I thought of a good name for her!" β
"Good name? To whom? Since you want to cooperate, you have to do enough of the scene, Xiao Mu gradually figured out some tips for talking to Lin Yi, so he still asked with a puzzled face.
"You idiot, you forgot so quickly." Lin Yi still mocked Xiao Mu's IQ, but judging from her expression, she was undoubtedly in a good mood at the moment, even if she said belittling words about Xiao Mu, she still had a smile on her face, and it didn't seem like she was really dissatisfied with Xiao Mu - I don't know why, Xiao Mu looked at Lin Ye's smiling face, and the word "flirting" suddenly popped up in his head, and in a sense, his and Lin Ye's current performance seems to really match the meaning of this word......
However, Xiao Mu also knew that his idea was too absurd and uninhibited, and it was impossible for the relationship between himself and Lin Yi to be the kind of relationship that could be described by this word, and in the end, Xiao Mu could only explain it with his own understanding of the word "flirting" that there was a problem somewhere, and Xiao Mu had to secretly pinch his thigh, trying to dispel this cranky thought.
This series of ideas was actually just a matter of a moment, so Xiao Mu didn't miss Lin Ye's next words, "Didn't you make the suggestion just now, saying that you wanted to change Xiaohong's name, why did you forget it so quickly?" β
"Oh, you mean it!" Xiao Mu patted his head and made a look of sudden realization, as if he had really forgotten the suggestion he had just made in the Pacific Ocean.
Xiao Mu didn't feel that it was enough to just do this, and then the expression on his face changed from sudden realization to shock, "No, I remember that you decided to change her name just before dinner, did you think about it so quickly?" β
Xiao Mu said in a surprised tone, and even there was a little obvious exaggeration in his words, but Lin Yi seemed to be even more useful after hearing it, "That's nature, just a name, do you still have to light the lamp and boil up in the middle of the night?" β
"Well, indeed, after all, you are also an industry insider, and it shouldn't take much effort to think of a name with the right artistic conception......" Xiao Mu simply flattered, or it couldn't be regarded as flattery, because his real thoughts at the moment were indeed the case, after all, Lin Ye, as a Chinese professional, specialized in ancient literature, didn't seem to be a difficult task to choose a name for a palace maid, at least he shouldn't have to be like himself, when he was in Daxing Huikang Inn, almost lost face in front of Yang Tao and his three children, and finally barely passed by plagiarizing other people's names.
"Hey, what do you mean by an insider? Do you think I'm the kind of charlatan who tells fortunes and counts? However, Xiao Mu's words were still caught by Lin Ye, and suddenly Lin Ye's face showed a touch of anger.
"How could I mean that...... Xiao Mu regretted that he talked too much, and while accidentally annoying Lin Yi, he explained again, praising Lin Yi's professionalism and literary literacy, and finally appeased Lin Yi again.
Fortunately, Lin Yi was not really angry, and he was also a little half-joking, so he quickly regained his interest.
"Okay, after talking about it for a long time, I still don't know what name you gave her? Don't hang my appetite anymore, tell me quickly! Xiao Mu saw that Lin Ye's mood had finally recovered, so he hurriedly made a look of impatience, as if Lin Ye didn't say anything more, he would feel so uncomfortable that he would die.
However, in fact, it was the opposite, Lin Yi came up with this name when he was halfway through dinner, and he didn't even eat the rest of the dinner, so he just ate two bites indiscriminately and hurried over to Xiao Mu, just to show off immediately. As a result, it was Xiao Mu, who didn't know what was going on for a while, and then marveled at Lin Ye's thoughts and thoughts, and patted Lin Ye's ass for a long time, but Lin Ye still hasn't had a chance to show the peerless good name she came up with, in fact, although Xiao Mu's face is impatient, but Lin Ye at this time is the most anxious one.
"Bring a pen." Lin Yi said in a chic manner, and then took the pen handed by Xiao Mu, dipped it in thick ink, and wrote two big characters on the paper - the dragon flying and phoenix dance here is not an exaggerated rhetorical technique, but a literal meaning, because Lin Ye's calligraphy level is really not flattering, and the word "apple" in Daxing last time still makes Xiao Mu remember it vividly.
Xiao Mu looked at the two words that Lin Yi had written down stroke by stroke, and then a shocked expression appeared on his faceβthis time it was not pretending, but really shocked.
"Are you sure you're serious?!"
