Chapter 13: Blue Fire
The three of them got out of the carriage and merged into the flow of people, while the driver drove away alone.
Following the flow of people into the city, I turned my head to look around, and saw that there were all kinds of buildings here, neat and orderly.
Since Burning Dragon City is the largest town in the vicinity, it has become a platform for logistics transactions in various villages and towns. There is a constant stream of vendors who come here to resell their goods, and the streets are full of people negotiating prices.
Jiawen and Lucy were also a little overwhelmed.
But Aunt Nai was a little familiar with the way, leading the two through the busy streets, walking for about ten minutes, and finally stopped in front of a hotel.
The hotel is not large, only two floors, and there is no one guarding the door. Pushing open the door, several people pulled in.
When you enter the store, the interior of the store is very nice, and it doesn't feel like a small hotel at all.
Lamps made of crystal hang from the ceiling to add a bit of enchanting color to the room, the floor is covered with a carpet made of the skins of unknown animals, and the rest of the furnishings are extraordinary, of course, the most conspicuous is the crystal bottles on the counter.
Half a glass of bright red viscous liquid had been poured out of the crystal wine glass next to it, and there was a strong sweet smell in the air, making it difficult not to notice it.
Sniffing the smell, Jiawen couldn't help but want to take a closer look.
"The flaming dragon tongue is mellow and sweet. It is made with dragon's blood fruit as the main ingredient, and after a long period of fermentation, the wine is so strong that it is said that the dragon will not be able to withstand it even after drinking it. β
The voice came from upstairs, and it was charming and magnetic, and it was easy to sketch the image of a mature woman in my mind.
On the escalator leading to the second floor, you will see a pair of crystal feet with a pair of crimson high heels.
Looking up, the tight calves, the looming smooth knees, the red skirt covering the plump thighs, the soft and boneless bee waist, and the two indescribable huge spheres.
Next, with delicate red lips, short ear-length hair of the same tone, a shallot-like nose, clear eyes, and a sense of grace and luxury between her eyebrows, Yanran is also a stunning beauty.
Walked slowly to Jiawen's side, leaning against the counter behind his back, his wrists crossed over his chest.
"How about it, little brother, would you like a drink?" the woman teased.
Jiawen hurriedly said that he would not drink.
"Yo, I'm still shy. The woman let out a silver bell-like laugh. Reaching out and taking a drink from the glass, a color of intoxication appeared in front of him, but it quickly disappeared again.
"Lan Huo, don't you want to say hello when you see an old friend?" Aunt Nai on the side stepped forward at this time, and it seemed that the two seemed to be acquaintances.
The woman named Lan Huo suddenly stood there and muttered to herself, "Lan Huo, how long has it been since no one called this name?" β
"It's been a long time," Aunt Nai stood opposite Lan Huo at this time.
"If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, and say what is the matter with me. Putting down the wine glass, Lan Huo turned around and lowered his head and lay on the counter.
Aunt Nai also stepped forward, her face calm and side by side: "I hope you can fulfill your original promise." β
"Poof," Lan Huo chuckled.
"Do you still have such naΓ―ve thoughts to this day?"
Turning his head to look at Gavin and Lucy.
"The heir, is it him or she. No kidding,"
After a pause, he turned his head and played with the wine glass in his hand.
"Since that war, I've lost everything, including my life, my faith, and my honor, you know Chanel. Lan Huo's expression was a little painful.
The blood-like liquid was poured into the glass, and it shook for a moment, and the liquid flowed through the walls of the glass, and then it was drunk again.
"I'm not kidding. Aunt Nai looked relaxed.
"Phew. There was a sound of the table top colliding with the wine glasses.
"Then don't come to disturb me," Lan Huo turned his head to meet Aunt Nai's eyes.
Long.
"Then change the question," apparently Aunt Nai was also expected by the outcome of this conversation.
"It's not too much to ask for the two of them to stay with you for a while. "Aunt Nai means something.
"You know my rules, and it seems like this time it's not a big problem. Lan Huo finally lifted his spirits.
Aunt Nai didn't say anything, just stretched out her white jade-like hands, took off the ruby ring finger of her left hand and put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Lan Huo.
"This will be used as a reward," a hint of reluctance flashed in Aunt Nai's eyes.
After taking the ring, his expression was a little surprised: "Are you sure you want to give me the "Cave Heaven"? Lan Huo wanted to speak and stopped.
"After such a long time, some things should be put down. "Aunt Nai, don't turn away.
"Don't regret it," Lan Huo chuckled as he covered his mouth with his drunken eyes open, and put the ring on his left little finger.
"I never regret anything. Aunt Nai was resolute.
"It's your character, well, the color is very much in line with my heart, and I agreed. Stretching out his hand to look at the ring, Lan Huo replied casually.
"Jiawen come over here," Aunt Nai said at this time.
Hearing the sudden mention of his name, Jiawen walked over quickly, although he didn't know why.
When she arrived, Aunt Nai took out a gold card from her waist and handed it to Jiawen. "You keep this gold card, I won't be in the past few days, you have to take care of yourself and Lucy. β
"You're leaving again after just a few days?" asked Jiawen after taking the gold card.
"Well, there's something to do. Aunt Nai didn't want to say more.
"You go out with Lucy first, get familiar with the environment, and come back to your Aunt Huo later. β
"Okay, I got it. Realizing that Aunt Nai didn't want them to hear the next conversation, Jiawen agreed knowingly.
Turning around, he called Lucy. Unlike Jiawen, the little girl's child mind can't understand the conversation between adults, and she is bored and is braiding her hair.
After greeting Aunt Nai, the two went out. There were only two of them left in the room.
"Looks like you're going to play big this time. Lan Huo's expression was cold, and he lost his previous taste of teasing.
"If I don't come back in three days, the two of them will be entrusted to you. Aunt Nai turned and took a few steps.
"Forget it, I'm not an orphanage here. Lan Huo straightened up and stretched.
"Let's just do it for now, without further ado, my time is precious right now. β
"Walk slowly, don't send. Picking up the wine bottle, Lan Huo threw something over casually, and then turned to go upstairs.
Aunt Nai's eyes flashed with surprise after taking it, and she looked at Lan Huo's back and was silent for a while, then turned around and left.
