Chapter 16 Lotus Garden

After the last class, Mo Yixuan, who was a school grass, put his left hand in his pocket, and the black backpack was put on his right shoulder, leaning against the door of the first class of the second year of high school, waiting for Li Xiaoyi to come out, with a charming smile on his handsome side face.

"Isn't that our school's school grass Mo Yixuan?"

"Who is he waiting for?"

"Wow, that's handsome!"

"It must be waiting for our two major schools."

"The school grass is matched with the school flower, but there is only one school grass."

"It doesn't have to be waiting for the two school flowers."

"Then who do you say he is waiting for?"

"I don't know."

Some of the students in the class started talking while cleaning up, and closed their mouths as they passed in front of the school grass.

"Mo... Hello Mr. Mo! A girl with glasses in a ponytail walked to the door with a schoolbag, and when she saw the handsome and charming Mo Yixuan, she couldn't help but look up at him and whispered hello, her tone shy.

"Hello!" Mo Yixuan looked up and smiled at the shy girl without hesitation, there was no easy-going relatives who belonged to the school grass.

"Who are you waiting for?" Seeing that Xiaocao smiled at her, the girl immediately lowered her head, her cheeks were slightly red, and asked him in a low voice again who he was waiting for, and hugged the schoolbag in her arms tightly with both hands.

"Wait for a fool." Mo Yixuan looked sideways in a certain direction, and his gaze was only willing to stay on the familiar figure from beginning to end, as gentle as the spring sun.

"Goodbye, Mr. Mo." The girl trotted away with questions, who is the fool?

"Xiao Yan, look at the door." Bai Jiatian put on her bag, walked to Li Xiaoyi's table, patted her shoulder lightly, and looked in the direction of the door.

"Mo Yixuan?" Li Xiaoyan followed Bai Jiatian's words, glanced at the door, and a familiar figure stood against the door.

"It's coming to find us Xiaoyi."

"Xiao Yu's flower messenger has arrived." Arlene and Tong Zhi, who had finished cleaning up, also looked at the door.

"Arlene Tong Zhi, can you not make fun of me, where does his hanging appearance look like a flower messenger." Mo Yixuan, who felt a few glances, smiled and waved to the few of them to greet them, Li Xiaoyan pursed his lips and withdrew his gaze to stop looking at him.

"Well, we'll go first."

"Stay safe on your way!"

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye." Arlene pulled Tong Zhi through the back door of the classroom.

"Xiaoyi, I still have something to do with Jia Tian, since someone is looking for you, let's leave first, call us if you have something."

"Stay safe."

Mu Rongya patted Li Xiaoyan's shoulder and smiled slightly, grabbed Bai Jiatian's arm and went out from the back door of the classroom.

How strange are these four people today, Li Xiaoyan put the books on the desk into the desk box, got up and picked up the shoulder bag on the chair and put the chair away, and went out through the back door with brisk steps, just to avoid someone.

Seeing this, Mo Yixuan hurriedly chased after him, how could this little girl always avoid him.

"Your little arms and legs are pretty fast."

"What's the matter, tell me quickly."

Mo Yixuan, who had caught up with a few strides, still smiled and walked side by side with her, but Li Xiaoyan was a little helpless.

"It's okay, can't you wait for you to come home from school?" Mo Yixuan asked rhetorically, what's wrong with this girl today?

"What the hell is going on?" Li Xiaoyan asked again, slowing down.

"You'll find out if you come with me somewhere first." Mo Yixuan grabbed Li Xiaoyan's wrist and walked quickly down the teaching building and walked towards the gate of the school.

"Mo Yixuan, where are you going to take me?"

"You'll know when you get there, it's a good place anyway."

"Here you go again."

"You're going to love this place."

“……”

Half an hour later, Mo Yixuan pulled Li Xiaoyi to Guanhe Garden, one of the tourist attractions in the city center.

"Mo Yixuan, what are you bringing me here for?" There was a closing notice hanging at the entrance, Li Xiaoyan felt a little strange, the summer closing was also half past seven, and it closed so early today? I didn't see anyone who came to enjoy the lotus flowers, and there would have been notices in the past.

"You'll know when you get in." Mo Yixuan smiled mysteriously, pulled up Li Xiaoyu again and walked to the side of the small door to stop, stretched out his hand and knocked three times, and soon someone opened the door: "Young Master, Miss Li, please come in!" The middle-aged man in a black suit was smiling and tall, and the gentleman politely bowed to Mo Yixuan and Li Xiaoyi to greet them.

"Hello!" Li Xiaoyan smiled politely and nodded, this is Mo Yixuan's housekeeper, he is really very personable.

"Uncle Li can prepare now." Mo Yixuan threw the backpack on his shoulder to the housekeeper Uncle Li, and pulled Li Xiaoyu to walk towards the destination, and Uncle Li followed after closing the door with the bag on his back.

"Mo Yixuan, why is your butler here?" Li Xiaoyan was very puzzled, and he hadn't heard that his house had anything to do with Guanhe Garden.

"Are you very puzzled that Guanhe Garden closed so early today?" Mo Yixuan turned his face to look at her, and Li Xiaoyan nodded.

"Because I'm out of the triple price wallet market." Mo Yixuan put his right hand on the back of his head, glanced at the blue sky and white clouds, and said slowly.

"What?" Li Xiaoyan was a little surprised, is this guy idle and has nothing to do? It's not like that's how you squander your wealth!

"Didn't you say that one day you would be able to experience the elegant life of the ancients by yourself quietly drinking tea and eating delicious and exquisite snacks? I didn't make it to your birthday, so I should make amends. Mo Yixuan put down his hand, suddenly stopped, turned to look at Li Xiaoyi, who also stopped, with a very gentle expression and a serious tone.

"Mo Yixuan, I'm joking, why are you still serious." Li Xiaoyan has never seen Mo Yixuan with such a serious face, what happened to him today? She's not used to him like this, he has nothing to squander, how can he let himself be good! How does it feel a bit like the bloody plot of a Korean drama.

"I'd rather see your happy smile, it's the only special birthday gift I've ever given you." Mo Yixuan smiled softly and continued to pull her up and walk forward.

"Even if it's a birthday present, there's no need to do this, you guy is always so annoying." Li Xiaoyu really didn't know how to express it to him, she also understood this guy's intentions, he took care of himself since they met, so she has always treated him as a good friend, but how can there be so many pure feelings, after all, when she was a student, she said that feelings were too conclusive, and she was not an ordinary person, and there are some things that cannot be easily touched.

"As long as you like it."

"It's a waste, but I'm really looking forward to it."

"It's called elegance, how to say it's waste."

"You are arrogant, you are proud, and the waste can be said to be so fresh and refined."

"Life is only a few decades in the world, and a few days of happiness are a few days."

Walking through the trail and walking through the corridor, Mo Yixuan pulled Li Xiaoyi to the Lotus Pavilion.

The clear surface of the lake, revealing the slim lotus flowers, like a delicate and young girl, shy, smiling, crimson and fragrant. Pieces of green lotus leaves, like the knight guarding the princess silently hugging and foiling, but also like a lover who is in love with each other, and like a lovely fish that is always inseparable from water, all of them are indispensable.

"The bamboo-colored stream is green, and the lotus mirror is fragrant, which is worthy of being the water out of the hibiscus and the silt without staining!" Looking at it, the lotus flowers in the pond make Li Xiaoyi feel very happy, and even the vision has become much clearer, this is probably the infinite blue lotus leaves in Yang Wanli's poems, and the lotus flowers in the sun are different red!

"You didn't like to memorize Tang poems before."

"That was before."

"The best West Lake Longjing, absolutely genuine, come and try it." In front of the round stone table, Mo Yixuan poured the top-grade Longjing upside down, looked up at Li Xiaoyi, who was kneeling on one knee on the chair and holding the vermilion fence with both hands.

"You know I don't know how to drink tea, Longjing is a good tea, but here I am like ordinary tea." Li Xiaoyan turned around and walked over to sit down with his skirt, took off the bag on his body and put it on the stone bench on the side, picked up the red sandalwood teacup in front of him and blew it, and took a sip.

"I don't understand, but whether it is good tea or not, in terms of taste, shape, color, and fragrance, there is still a big difference." Mo Yixuan, who was tasting good tea, smiled slightly, he still loves Oriental Chinese tea more than the coffee of this Western country.

"Although I also like to drink and eat well, I just don't have much taste." Li Xiaoyan put down the teacup and propped up his head with his left hand.

"Taste is not used to bind the world, happiness is the most important."

"That's what you're talking about." Li Xiaoyan nodded in agreement with what the other party said.

"Young master, the snacks prepared for Miss Li are ready, please use them!" It wasn't long before a tall young maid cautiously walked into the gazebo with a tray, took out the tray of dim sum flowers, placed it on the stone table, and placed two pairs of ceramic cutlery in front of the two of them.

"Thank you for your hard work." Mo Yixuan nodded, the maid smiled politely, bowed to the two of them, and left with the empty tray.

"It's exquisite!" Looking at the dim sum of different shapes and colors, Li Xiaoyi put down the hand supporting his head and sat upright.

"Twelve different flavors and shapes are all your favorite to eat." Mo Yixuan picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of white round cake in the center of the plate and put it on her small dinner plate.

"Thank you!" Li Xiaoyi picked up the round cake with chopsticks and tasted it, and there was a small lotus flower engraved on the cake.

"How?" Mo Yixuan asked.

"Rose-flavored, so delicious!" Li Xiaoyi nodded, the filling is a faint rose fragrance, the skin is made of glutinous rice, the sweetness is moderate, and you won't feel sweet and greasy if you eat a few more bites.

"It's all yours, I won't rob you, but it's quite interesting to tutor you in this elegant environment." Mo Yixuan took a sip of tea before remembering another thing about him.

"Are you going to take me to see the lotus flowers, or are you going to tutor me? Also, when did I agree to give me tutoring? After eating a cake, Li Xiaoyan took a big sip of the tea on the side, and glanced at the other party with questioning eyes.

"Both, your girlfriends agreed!" Mo Yixuan nodded, and he began to do ideological work for Li Xiaoyu in a serious manner.

"When did they say that? Why didn't I know that they didn't ask me? Li Xiaoyi picked up a piece of ice-skinned mung bean cake and took a bite and said, this kid wanted to fool her, so he said this on purpose.

"They all told me about their actions, and they were very happy for me to come and tutor you."

"You've been domineering for a day or two, you don't talk to me." Li Xiaoyan took a sip of tea after eating, this guy wanted to brainwash her again, so she wouldn't be fooled.

"I'll tell you the truth, I can't talk to you, can I?"

"I'm afraid the sun is coming out in the west."

"What's wrong with following a charming, handsome and golden man to eat and drink spicy food, this kind of treatment is not available to everyone, do you want to miss such a good tutoring treatment?" Mo Yixuan saw Li Xiaoyan with a look that I don't believe you very much, don't you want to deceive me and fool me to get by, and asked her very seriously, is he so untrustworthy, he is not joking.

"Are you really getting more and more narcissistic, are rich people so narcissistic?"

"I'll tell you the truth."

"You say that every time." Li Xiaoyi said that she is not a person who sells her soul for food, this behavior is shameful and shameful.

"Besides, I'm not a wolf, what are you afraid of." Mo Yixuan picked up the teapot and added tea to Li Xiaoyu.

"Just like you, I'm afraid of you, it's just a joke." Li Xiaoyan glanced at him disdainfully, small.

"Then you're so afraid that I'll tutor you?" Mo Yixuan shook his head and smiled, this little girl is a piece.

"I don't like to be fooled." Li Xiaoyan took a sip of tea.

"When have I fooled you?" Mo Yixuan glanced at the watch he was wearing on his left wrist and asked seriously.

"Don't you?" Li Xiaoyi's two eyeballs rolled, asked rhetorically, and picked up a small yellow square cake and put it in his mouth.

"It's not that you don't know, but you have to ask knowingly." Mo Yixuan poured tea for himself, and said pitifully that his heart was pricked again, and he didn't know how many times he was pricked by her.

"However, it is good to be able to do the exercises in such a beautiful view." Li Xiaoyan stood up, walked to the fence behind Mo Yixuan, and tilted his head with his hands and elbows to look at the pink lady in the pool.

"It's good to be quiet." Mo Yixuan walked up to her, took out a silky and delicate gold-rimmed white handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her, embroidered with a small golden crape myrtle flower.

"Thanks!" Li Xiaoyan took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, it's really convenient for this guy to carry a handkerchief with him.

"Happy Birthday!"

"Thank you!"

Li Xiaoyi wiped his lips and returned the handkerchief to him.

"After eating the lotus seed soup, I'll send you home." Mo Yixuan looked sideways at Li Xiaoyi, who was looking at a pool of lotus flowers, and he wanted to look at her quietly like this.

"What are you watching me do? Do I have something on my face? Li Xiaoyan turned her face to meet Mo Yixuan's gentle gaze, which made her a little embarrassed and immediately turned her back to him and didn't dare to look at him, how could she feel that her face was a little hot? I can still feel my heart beating a little fast, he is a little abnormal today.

The breeze blows, the lotus leaves and flowers in the blue pond sway gently, and the sun is much softer.

"No, it's just that I haven't seen your face mellow for a few days." After a while, Mo Yixuan spoke softly to break the somewhat embarrassing atmosphere, looked away, and looked into the distance with his hands in his pockets.

"Is there one? Really gained weight? Li Xiaoyan turned around, pinched the flesh on both sides of his face, and patted it, as if it was a little fleshy, and a little elastic.

"If you don't believe me, I'll ask someone to bring you a mirror to see." Mo Yixuan joked, and stopped looking at her, afraid that she would be like that just now.

"It's nice to have some meat." Li Xiaoyan flicked his cheek lightly.

"Young master, the lotus seed soup you asked for is ready."

"Thank you Uncle Li." Mo Yixuan gestured.

"Okay, young master." Uncle Li put the lotus seed soup on the table and left.

"Let's go, taste the fresh lotus seeds, they must taste good."

"You didn't take me to see the lotus flowers, you wanted to make me gain weight."

Mo Yixuan turned around and pulled Li Xiaoyu back to his seat, picked up the ceramic bowl and tasted it.

"Tastes good, doesn't it?"

"It's delicious, is there a recipe?" Li Xiaoyi nodded, and sent spoonfuls to his mouth.

"Family heirlooms are not exposed."

"Stingy."

"If you want to eat, feel free to tell me, I'm very generous to my friends."

"I'm not the kind of person who is greedy for small gains."

"It's not a good word, and it's not for nothing."

"I think I could have a few more bowls." Li Xiaoyi, who had finished drinking a few times, looked at the empty bowl and licked the corners of her mouth, she wanted to have a few more bowls.

"When you leave for a while, bring it back for your brothers and sisters to taste, and bring back these snacks as well, it's best to share the food." Mo Yixuan glanced at her secretly and smiled gently, she always looked so happy and cute when she ate.

"I can't eat more, and it won't be good if I can't get dinner when I go back." Li Xiaoyan thought about it, once because she was too full because of gluttony, but when she came home for dinner, she didn't get sick and started to feel uncomfortable, her sister and Su Dabai were worried about her, Su Dabai carried her to the hospital and couldn't take care of dinner, so let's go according to the normal diet rules, Mo Yixuan didn't remind her, it was estimated that she would be hungry again.

"Shall I send you home?" Mo Yixuan put down the bowl in his hand and asked again after a while.

"Just ask Uncle Li to send me back." Li Xiaoyan looked up at him, bit his lip and refused.

"Okay." Mo Yixuan agreed softly, her tone was a little helpless, she wanted to be her flower messenger and didn't give her a chance, it can be said that the falling flowers were intentionally ruthless.

At this moment, in the basement of the Mu family, Xue Xiu was holding the steaming coffee on the armrest of his chair, blowing the hot liquid with a cold expression, and the bound Hua Ji knelt on the ground with her head bowed.

"You say, should General Ben kill you or torture you slowly?" After blowing for a while, Xue Xiu took a sip, raised her eyes to look at the vicious woman kneeling in front of her, and smiled coldly.

"Listen to me." Hua Ji raised her head to meet the other party's murderous and cold eyes, eager to cut her with a thousand knives.

"Say you have a backbone or a hard mouth!" Xue Xiu couldn't help but mock when she heard it, is she worthy?
