Twenty-six

The three of them went upstairs to the room, Qiu Guanghan pulled the stool out, both of them sat down, but Qiu Guanghan was standing. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info After a moment of joy, she stared straight at Ling.

Ling Li was stunned by her, looked under the table, and hurriedly stood up and said, I don't know that there are only two stools for you to sit on.

It's okay not to speak, as soon as he spoke, Qiu Guanghan's eyes turned red, and he punched him and said, You are still embarrassed to speak! You didn't listen to me, you had to join in the fun, and you almost lost your life!

Ling Li hurriedly smiled and said, don't you say that, don't you come out well now?

Qiu Guanghan stomped his feet and said, you are still smiling, you are ......!

Ling Li stopped laughing. He could see an inconspicuous flush on Qiu Guanghan's cheeks from excitement. She rarely does. At this moment, he could really feel her concern. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, which made Qiu Guanghan think that he was telling him to stop talking, so he stopped in a daze, but unexpectedly his hand reached up and touched her face. He looked at her, at her somewhat embarrassed and shy face, at her wandering eyes and warm lips. The only pity is that there is also a Shao Xuanye next to him.

Qiu Guanghan lowered his head and shook off his hand, but he still unconsciously hugged her tightly and stroked her hair without saying a word. Naturally, Shao Xuan also wanted to avoid it a little, but before he stood up, he saw Qiu Guanghan carefully pushing Ling Li away, and said, I'm not saying that you're not good, don't take it so seriously. She glanced at Shao Xuanye as she spoke, and turned her head away embarrassedly. Actually, I was afraid that you would misunderstand me, and when I saw you in distress, I fled alone.

I just wanted to let you go. Said sharply. I remember you said before that you would not do something that you knew would be useless, so I know you wouldn't be so stupid as to let them find out. I didn't expect to see you in Matsue - you found this place so quickly. I...... I really didn't expect that.

also relied on Brother Shao. Qiu Guanghan said. If you hadn't met him, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been so easy to save you.

Do you already know each other?, Ling Li asked.

No—of course not.

Is that......

Actually, it's like this. Qiu Guanghan lowered his head and said. I knew that one person couldn't help you, so I wanted to pay someone to save you. I...... Don't laugh, I also thought that others could pay you to kill people, so of course I could spend money to hire someone to save you.

Ling Li also glanced at Shao Xuan, sat down and said, isn't this a joke. The famous Shao Daxia, how could you hire a little girl you didn't know with silver?

How can you say that? Qiu Guanghan said. Brother Shao is chivalrous, he doesn't care if it's silver or not, but he promised me anyway!

I didn't mean that. Said sharply. But--he said and glanced at Shao Xuanye. I'm afraid you don't know what kind of character he is in the rivers and lakes now, right?

Be...... What kind of character? Qiu Guanghan said a little nervously. Brother Shao, you ...... You're that kind of ...... Boss figures?

Shao Xuan also shook his head and said, Ling Gongzi is lifting me, Miss Qiu don't take it seriously.

I see that those people in the restaurant respect you very much, of course you are not an ordinary person, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you. Qiu Guanghan said with a smile. But...... But ...... She said, looking at Ling Li...... What's wrong?

Ling Li deliberately said quite lonely, his father was originally known as "the first knife in the Central Plains", and now this title can be regarded as falling on his head, who does not buy his face, wherever he raises his arms, he can gather hundreds of masters. Do you think he's a leader figure?

Qiu Guanghan looked at Shao Xuanye in surprise and said, the first knife in the Central Plains...... Is it so powerful?

Shao Xuan also had to stand up and say to the two, Miss Qiu, Ling Gongzi, I really don't dare to do what you say. I believe that as long as people with a little conscience will do their best, it doesn't matter if Shao has a little bit of a reputation or is a nobody, it makes no difference.

Ling Li looked at him with a silent expression, but Qiu Guanghan snorted, where, many people in the restaurant that day didn't seem to want to help me at all. But...... She smiled. I didn't know you were such a big person, anyway, I was presumptuous. She said and took out the stack of silver tickets, and said, although you don't care about this silver tael, you should accept it. Although this ...... It's not my money, but I'm always with Brother Ling, and I will always have a chance to pay him back in the future.

Ling Li listened to her words, obviously separated himself from Shao Xuanye, and felt a lot of use in his heart, and smiled and said, Aren't you trying to save me, what are you doing to pay me back?

Precisely. Shao Xuan also smiled. What else will you two divide between you and me, and his money will not be yours? but do not reach out to take it when he speaks.

Qiu Guanghan hurriedly shook his head and said No, it's not Brother Shao, don't misunderstand us. Brother Ling and I are just friends. We haven't known each other for long, and I have used a lot of silver taels from him before, and I haven't returned them yet. Now, it's a last resort.

Shao Xuan was also stunned, looked at Ling Li and said, these two people are not what I thought? That's strange - Ling Li's amorous nature is famous, a girl like Qiu Guanghan, let alone him, anyone will think about it.

I was thinking about listening to Qiu Guanghan and said, Brother Shao, you don't hold it yet!

Shao Xuan also smiled and said, since you want to draw so clearly with him, you should first ask him if he is willing to lend you this money.

Qiu Guanghan wanted to open his mouth to refute, but he stopped, turned his head and looked at Ling Li who was about to ask, Ling Li had already said, I gave it to you, you don't need to ask me.

Qiu Guanghan turned his head and stuffed the silver ticket forward very confidently, saying, Anyway, if he doesn't agree, I will return the silver to him and owe you money; See which of you will let me borrow money!

Shao Xuan and Ling Li couldn't help but glance at each other, but they said at the same time, why do you bother......

Speaking of this, both of them were stunned, paused, and said sharply, why are you so serious, I already said I don't want it.

Precisely. Shao Xuan also said. Why bother with such a trivial matter.

Qiu Guanghan glared and said, this is a small matter, so what do you say is a big deal?

Have you forgotten? Shao Xuan also said. At that time, it was said that people would be rescued, and you would have two drinks with me. As for the silver...... I didn't tell you.

...... That's what I said. Qiu Guanghan seemed to think about it. But......

I am very honored to meet you this time, where is there any reason to take money. Miss Qiu should put it away. Shao Xuan also smiled.

Qiu Guanghan thought about it and said, don't do it, anyway, listening to Brother Ling, you don't lack this bit of silver, then-she stuffed a silver ticket to Ling Li again--I'll give it back to you!

Seeing that Ling Li's lips were about to move, she hurriedly rushed to say, don't say that you don't want it, this silver is yours and yours. If you really gave it to me, then I should pay off the debt I owed last time, and it is yours anyway!

Ling Li couldn't refute it, so he had to take it, and said stupidly, anyway, you're with me, aren't you?

But Qiu Guanghan glanced at him and didn't answer, but turned to Shao Xuanye and said, you don't want silver, then I can't break my promise, so I'll go downstairs and have two drinks?

All right. Shao Xuan was also pleased.

Ling Li is not as happy as him. -- Suddenly left me down to drink with someone? What is this? Seeing the two of them walking out, he only bit his lip and stared at Qiu Guanghan's back without saying a word.

Qiu Guanghan walked to the door, turned around and saw him motionless, and said in surprise, go, what are you doing staying?

When Ling Li saw her shouting herself, the expression on her face softened, and she couldn't help but smile, nodded and said I'll come.

There was no one in the lobby downstairs, and the store quickly set up food and drinks for the three of them. Qiu Guanghan raised his glass and said, Brother Shao, I respect you.

Shao Xuan was also busy saying that he didn't dare to do it, and drank all the wine in one gulp. Qiu Guanghan saw that he drank dry, and he also swallowed the wine in one gulp, but his face was obviously not so relaxed.

Ling Li had been looking at her all the time. He figured he had never seen her drink. Seeing that her face was not good, he immediately shook her hand and said, "Are you okay?"

Don't worry. Although Qiu Guanghan said this, he frowned.

Shao Xuan also looked at her with concern and said, if you really don't like wine, don't drink it!

This...... As soon as Qiu Guanghan finished speaking, she suddenly coughed with extreme discomfort in her throat. Ling Li hurriedly patted her on the back. Are you alright?" he asked nervously. Did you choke?

Qiu Guanghan shook his head while coughing, stopped for a while, raised his head and said, To be honest, I only drank for the first time today. However, I have never tasted the taste of sake, and I have heard of it, so I am not surprised......

Shao Xuan also looked at the empty cup, and then looked at Qiu Guanghan and said, I'm really sorry, Miss Qiu, it turned out that my request was too rude, at first it was just like that, you don't have to take it seriously. If you really want to drink, you might as well drink some water.

Precisely. Ling Li also said. He saw that Qiu Guanghan tried his best to suppress the appearance of something in his throat, and before he could speak, his hand had already begun to swing, and he unconsciously added another sentence, if you promise him, he will not forget it, I will make a drink for you. Anyway, Shao Daxia saved me this time, and I should thank you too...... You two.

Qiu Guanghan's hand waved twice, and then he swallowed his saliva and said, It's not as bad as you think, so I'll drink it myself. Anyway, it was like this at the beginning, if not, how would you learn to drink?

Ling Li glanced at Shao Xuanye suspiciously, and Qiu Guanghan filled his cup again. Ling Li had no choice but to say, then you drink slowly.

So I also had a drink with Shao Xuan, and the task of drinking "two" cups was completed. But Qiu Guanghan filled the glasses of the three people with wine, and she seemed very interested, making people wonder if she was a little wrong with the two glasses just now.

Miss Qiu, do you still want to ...... What are you doing? Shao Xuan also asked tentatively.

I don't think the wine is so bad and I kind of like it. Qiu Guanghan smiled. What about you?--Brother Ling hasn't touched the cup yet, what about you, Brother Shao?

......Shao Xuan was also a little helpless. Of course I ...... Not so fast......

That's good. Let's drink this cup together.

The two men had no choice but to raise their glasses to accompany her.

I drank a lot of wine, talked a lot, and didn't seem rusty and restrained.

Miss Qiu is born in autumn, right? Shao Xuan also asked.

Qiu Guanghan chuckled. Why? My surname is Qiu, which is the birthday of autumn?

Not really. But isn't the word "Guanghan" the moon it refers to? If Miss Qiu is not the birthday of the Mid-Autumn Festival, how can she call it this name?

Qiu Guanghan's expression suddenly darkened. Who knows. The person who gave me the name is no longer there......

Shao Xuan was also silent, and said for a while, I'm really sorry, I don't know......

It's weird. Qiu Guanghan suddenly smiled. Why do you keep saying my name? Lingli's name is also strange, why don't you talk about him?

Ling Gongzi ...... Shao Xuan also smiled kindly. He hears his name several times a day, and he doesn't feel it anymore when he hears it too much.

Why? Qiu Guanghan said strangely. Do you often hear Brother Ling's name?

Not so often. Shao Xuan also said. In the past few years, there have been more things that have been involved with him in the rivers and lakes. Who else in their line of work is stronger than him? a feared gold medal killer, I never dreamed of sitting with him for a drink.

Qiu Guanghan was surprised again. Are you serious? Brother Ling is also such a famous person?

Miss Qiu doesn't know? Shao Xuan is also strange. He looked at Ling Li and said with a smile, You are good, don't say anything to Miss Qiu.

Ling Li kept his head down and was silent, and sighed at the moment, a killer has a name and a surname, and he asks people to listen to it several times a day, so it's better not to do it.

Shao Xuan also laughed, but it took great courage to quit. Like Brother Ling, who went to the mountains and forests at the age of twenty, I am afraid that there are only a few of them throughout the ages!

Ling Li couldn't help but laugh too, and said, unfortunately, he couldn't go into hiding, and he was arrested.

Qiu Guanghan looked at the two of them and interjected, I don't care. I don't care what kind of character you are in the rivers and lakes, anyway, I just met you, and I know your people, not your fame, I ...... anyway Ignoring what others say to you or afraid of you, I treat you all as ...... Friends, as long as you don't think I'm presumptuous!

Where to say. Shao Xuan also said. It's too late for me to be happy to have a friend like you. You know all of our people, it's better than knowing a reputation, right?

Qiu Guanghan hummed softly, and then said happily, but the two of you got to know each other's reputation first, let's talk about it, what is the difference between people and reputation?

Both of them were stunned, and Ling Li said first, I don't think it's any different, Shao Daxia's reputation is very good......

What do you think? Qiu Guanghan turned around and asked Shao Xuanye again.

Ling Gongzi ......

Ling Li coughed. I'm afraid I don't have a good reputation......

Shao Xuan also laughed and said, Before I met Ling Gongzi, I also thought about what kind of person you were, but now, the rumors cannot be believed.

Isn't it?" Qiu Guanghan said with a smile. I said that his name was strange, and it would inevitably make people think that he was fierce, but in fact it was not at all like his person, it was all scary, and he was obviously delicate and cute......

Ling Li had already turned his face away and was not ready to take on this topic, but he suddenly turned back and frowned and said, "Cute and cute?

Do you know what Miss Qiu meant? Shao Xuan also smiled. She just thinks you're a nice person, not at all like your name suggests.

But that's as it should be. Qiu Guanghan said. Otherwise, how could he have such a good woman's popularity?

Shao Xuan also glanced at Ling Li in surprise and said, "Women's fate-you confessed to Miss Qiu?"

What is this. Ling Li lowered her head and said, she didn't ...... anyway Not care.

Qiu Guanghan really didn't care about his words, and then smiled, presumably his reputation is so big?

Shao Xuan also smiled, no, no, Miss Qiu, don't say that......

Ling Li seemed to be thinking about something, and looked at the other side blankly, as if he didn't hear Qiu Guanghan's teasing.

But. Qiu Guanghan immediately withdrew his smile and said, there should be another thing that makes him more famous, right?

What is the matter? Shao Xuan also said.

It's the sword in his hand.

Ling's body shook slightly, and he came back to his senses.

Shao Xuan also glanced at Ling Li, nodded and said, not bad. This sword, known as the "black sword" on the rivers and lakes, is said to have a long history.

Brother Shao seems to be ...... about this Do you know very clearly?Qiu Guanghan glanced at his expression carefully.

Shao Xuan also smiled. This is natural. I don't know how many people are about to take advantage of this opportunity to seize the "black sword", but they don't know where the others are, most of them are like flies without heads; a few days ago, there was sudden news that Ling Li appeared in Lin'an, and some people were already rushing to it. Even if I didn't know before, I should have heard people talk about it all the way!

This is the case, there are so many martial arts people in Lin'an City all of a sudden. Qiu Guanghan said. However, Brother Shao, with all due respect, why did you come to Lin'an?

Shao Xuan also laughed and said, Miss Qiu thinks that she is also here for the sword in Brother Ling's hand?

I didn't say that. Qiu Guanghan lowered his head and said. I know you're a good person, and you promised me to save people before I said that the person you want you to help save is called Ling Li. But...... But if you came to Lin'an, if it wasn't related to Brother Ling, why did you come to Songjiang so coincidentally, and why did you rush to Songjiang with me, and there was no intention of rushing back to do your own business at this moment?

Can't I just come to enjoy the mountains and rivers?" Shao Xuan also said with a smile. Miss Qiu's suspicions seemed to be a little heavier.

Qiu Guanghan's face flushed. She thought that she was suspicious at the beginning, and she was about the same psychology as she was at the moment. She opened her mouth to explain again, but she felt that it was better not to explain, so she didn't feel silent, and raised her glass to drink, but Ling Li opened her mouth to speak.

At the end of the year, Shao Daxia specially came from Luoyang to the south of the Yangtze River to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and it seemed that he was very interested. Although he had a smile on his face, his eyes looked straight at Shao Xuanye.

Qiu Guanghan felt that the atmosphere seemed to suddenly become tense, and unconsciously put down the cup, quietly pulled the sleeves of the sharp shirt and said, Brother Ling!

Shao Xuan was silent. Ling Li smiled and shook his head, and also lowered his head to drink.

After a long while, Shao Xuan also suddenly smiled and said, Miss Qiu can rest assured. Qiu Guanghan raised his head to look at him, but his eyes were staring at Ling Li.

I'm definitely not here to sharpen the sword in my hand. He continued. Merely...... I just want to ask him about one thing.

Ling Li also looked up at him, and the eyes of the two made Qiu Guanghan worried. She wanted to ask you what you were going to inquire about, but she knew that this might not be something she could understand, so she had to ask hard, so what about you...... You don't mean to be bad for Brother Ling, are you?

Don't overthink it. Ling Li on the side smiled. If Shao Daxia wants to be unfavorable to me, he will do it on the way back.

Qiu Guanghan didn't speak, but he thought in his heart, but maybe it was because he promised me to save you, and he didn't guarantee anything after I saw you come out safely. Thinking of this, he blushed because he thought of Shao Xuan like this, thinking that since he valued the things promised me so much, he would definitely not be a villain.

So she just oh and said, anyway...... Anyway, I know you're not a person who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, so I won't say anything. If you have something to say, I'll go back to my room first.

She stood up as she spoke—the two men were still seated, and their eyes didn't take their eyes off her. She couldn't help but have some foreboding, her mind turned, her body shook, and she sat down again.

This sharp gaze turned around, and his hand reached out to help her. Are you alright?" he asked.

Qiu Guanghan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart I just need to disrupt this tense atmosphere, and it will be fine, and said softly at the moment, I am afraid that I have drunk too much and am a little dizzy.

That...... Ling Li glanced back at Shao Xuanye. I'll send Miss Qiu back to her room to rest first. You......

I waited. Shao Xuan also replied.

Ling Li didn't say anything anymore and followed Qiu Guanghan upstairs.

Are you really okay? Sleep. Ling Li opened the door for her.

I'm fine. Qiu Guanghan grabbed his hand. Brother Ling, you promise me, you ...... Don't do it!

How could it be, you think too much. Ling Li laughed. I have no grievances with Shao Daxia, he only said that he has something to ask me, how can he do it?

But...... But you just did that...... I'm scared. Qiu Guanghan still frowned at him. Will you promise me?

Of course. Ling Li smiled, wrapped the hair on her forehead, saw her face as usual, a little relieved, and said, you rest for a while, I will come back in a while.
