Chapter 35: Going to the Feast
"I remember you, but who did you call that?"
The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, not to mention that Xia Fan had a good impression of Gu Xiqiao, but for a while, he forgot who the other party's surname was, and only remembered that he hit the other party's two panda eyes.
“...... I'm sorry, it's rude to be under the Xia, the chief disciple of the Huanhua Sword Pavilion, Gu Xiqiao!"
Gu Xiqiao was slightly stunned, as if he remembered that he had indeed forgotten to identify himself last time, in fact, it was no wonder that he would be negligent in this regard, after all, Gu Xiqiao was quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and no matter where he went, people in the rivers and lakes would recognize him.
The problem is that Xia Fan has lived in seclusion in the mountains for many years, and it is inevitable that he will be lonely and unheard of the personnel on the rivers and lakes, so he doesn't know that Gu Xiqiao is normal.
"Gu Xiqiao? Okay, I remember. Xia Fan nodded slightly. "I don't know what you did when you stopped me on the street this time? What? Do you still want to fight me for the thief?"
Your Excellency laughed, knowing that you were not your opponent, how could you dare to provoke Your Excellency again now. Gu Xiqiao's smile was mixed with a hint of unspeakable bitterness. "I just heard that Your Excellency has come to Qingping today, so I want to take this opportunity to apologize to Your Excellency, and specially set up a banquet for Your Excellency. ”
"The banquet, it won't be the Hongmen banquet, right?" Xia Fan raised his eyebrows.
"Hongmen Banquet?" Gu Xiqiao said in confusion. "Dare to ask Your Excellency what is the Hongmen Banquet?"
It means that there is no good feast. Xia Fan looked at Gu Xiqiao with a smile.
"Your Excellency, you're laughing again. Gu Xiqiao said with a sneering face. "Setting up a banquet to apologize is completely sincere and apologetic from the heart, and besides, your martial arts are superb, even if you have a bad heart, what reason do you have to fear?"
"Let's do it, let me see what you have in mind!"
As he spoke, Xia Fan patted Shi Xiaofeidao, who was stunned beside him.
"Let's go, since someone has a free treat, we can't live up to the other party's kindness. ”
"Senior, are you really not afraid of fraud?"
Shi Xiaofei, who was following closely beside him, couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Don't worry, this guy is a smart guy. With that, Xia Fan had already walked in front of Gu Xiqiao. "Am I right, Xiao Gu?"
Xiao Gu?
The corners of Gu Xiqiao's eyes twitched imperceptibly, but he still maintained a warm smile on his face.
"Your Excellency said so. ”
Immediately, Gu Xiqiao led the two of them to a nearby inn, which made the surrounding people who were secretly watching the lively rivers and lakes feel a little disappointed.
In order to entertain Xia Fan, Gu Xiqiao specially chartered the largest private room on the second floor of the inn, and when they entered the private room, they unexpectedly found that there was already a person sitting at the wine table.
A mysterious woman wearing a hat and a veil.
Especially when the other party saw Xia Fan, he deliberately glanced over his head and snorted coldly.
"Wan'er, don't be rude to Your Excellency!" Gu Xiqiao saw the woman at the wine table, and his expression changed instantly. "And why did you come here? Didn't I tell you to stay in your room?"
"Gu Gongzi, I'm sorry, please forgive the little woman for her recklessness, it's just that the little woman has some questions that she wants to ask this master face to face. ”
The uninvited guest at the wine table was Miss Huang.
After she argued with Gu Xiqiao, her eyes gradually moved to Xia Fan's body, and at the same time deliberately bit the word superior.
"It's okay, I don't have the same knowledge as the little girl, and you don't have to care about Xiao Gu. ”
Xia Fan Shi sat down on the wine table with all his eyes, as if he ignored the yellow girl.
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but I was rude. Gu Xiqiao hurriedly bowed his hand. "If there is disrespect in the younger sister, I hope that Your Excellency can have a lot of Haihan. ”
"Is she your junior sister?" Xia Fan asked casually.
"To be precise, she is the younger sister of a friend, but some time ago, a friend had something to leave for the time being, so she specially asked to take care of one or two in the next. "Gu Xi Bridge Road.
"I remember, she is the little girl who shouted that the thief was their family that day?" Xia Fan said thoughtfully.
"Yes, but this junior sister is not deeply involved in the world and has lived in the sect all the year round, so there is something offensive in her words, and I hope that Your Excellency can be tolerant and considerate. Gu Xiqiao smiled bitterly.
"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, not to mention that this little girl is estimated to be in the stage of youth and rebellion, flaunting herself, letting go of her personality, and being stubborn, these are all very normal things, anyway, the person who has a headache in the end is not me. Xia Fan shrugged his shoulders and said disappreciably.
"You ......"
"Your Excellency's words are really thought-provoking!"
Gu Xiqiao stopped Miss Huang from speaking with his eyes for the first time, and then hurriedly complimented Xia Fan.
"Without further ado, let's hurry up and let Xiao Er serve the food. Xia Fan said lightly. "I've been in the mountains for too long, but now I can finally get a good meal. ”
"Your Excellency, wait a minute, and then we will arrange it now. ”
With that, Gu Xiqiao walked outside the door and informed the nearby Xiao Er, and returned to the house after a while.
"Your Excellency, the little girl has some questions for you......
Before serving, Miss Huang finally seized the opportunity to ask.
"It's easy to say, but we'll talk about it when we're done eating. ”
Xia Fan blocked her back with a word, and Gu Xiqiao stared closely at him, afraid that she would speak disrespectfully, and Miss Huang would not be able to continue to have a seizure for a while.
In the next banquet, except for Xia Fan, who was feasting, everyone could be said to have different thoughts.
Shi Xiaofei always felt that the atmosphere was too awkward and made people restless.
Although Gu Xiqiao is exquisite, the appearance of Miss Huang undoubtedly disrupted his overall plan.
As for Miss Huang, she was silent with a sense of resentment, and she didn't even move a bite of the food on the table.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten such a sumptuous delicacy, and people really live for better enjoyment. ”
After the wine and rice were full, Xia Fan couldn't help but sigh.
"Today can satisfy your wishes, and you will feel satisfied in the future. Gu Xiqiao saw the needle.
"Alright, now that the meal is ready, it's time for us to get down to business. Xia Fan smiled, and his gaze inadvertently fell on Miss Huang. "Little girl, it's hard to hold back, isn't it? ”
"Your Excellency, the little girl wants to know, since Your Excellency is a senior master, why did you forcibly seize the stolen things that originally belonged to our sect?"
"I came to the banquet to solve each other's misunderstanding, otherwise do you think I would really agree to someone's invitation casually?"
As he spoke, Xia Fan glanced at Gu Xiqiao intentionally or unintentionally.
Gu Xiqiao, who noticed Xia Fan's eyes, subconsciously showed a slightly embarrassed smile.
"Shi Xiaofei, tell them about you. ”
