The sound of water splashed behind the screen.

Lin Xiao sat at the table, drinking cup after cup, but couldn't suppress the heat in his heart.

The sound of water stopped.

After a while, Shangguan Feiyan's probing voice came from behind the screen: "Old man? Are you still there?"

Lin Xiao didn't respond.

"Old man?" The voice was louder.

Lin Xiao remained silent.

A corner of the screen was suddenly opened, and Shangguan Feiyan leaned out in panic. The next second, she froze.

Lin Xiao didn't know when he was standing next to the screen, and the two looked at each other.

The air freezes.

Lin Xiao's eyes moved downward involuntarily, and the water drops slid down her neck, sinking into the shocking whiteness on her chest.

He took a breath, but he didn't expect the princess to be in such good shape.

"Ah——!" Shangguan Feiyan screamed and turned around, "Old disciple! What, what are you doing?!"

"Didn't you call me?" Lin Xiao coughed and looked away.

"I shouted so many times, just answer! Who asked you to come here!"

"The old man is deaf." Lin Xiao turned around and walked back to the bed, lying down with his clothes on, "Don't be angry, you continue to wash, I won't watch."

Shangguan Feiyan hurriedly dried herself and put on clothes. When she looked back, she saw that Lin Xiao was already snoring.

She became even more angry, stamped her feet and cursed in a low voice: "My princess is beautiful and fragrant. I am bathing next to you, and you actually fall asleep? Damn old man!"

She rushed over and shouted in his ear: "Get up—!"

Lin Xiao yawned and stretched: "This bed is so comfortable... How about you drive back in a carriage? I'll stay overnight."

"No!" Shangguan Feiyan refused without even thinking, "I'll go back by myself, and you're having fun here? Sister Su and Sister Leng are still waiting at home!"

"That's alright." Lin Xiao stood up, but his eyes fell on the tub, looking at it carefully.

"Damn old man!" Shangguan Feiyan's face turned red again, "You also want to read other people's bath water?"

"Dirty thoughts." Lin Xiao glared at her.

"Am I dirty?"

"I want to bring a bathtub back so that Xinyue and Qingxue can wash themselves."

Shangguan Feiyan's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay!"

When he went downstairs to check out, Lin Xiao said to the waiter: "Another bathtub, four quilts, and silk quilts."

The waiter was stunned: "Sir, the restaurant's food... is not available for takeout."

"I'll give you the money." Lin Xiao took out the silver coins.

"This is not about money, it's about rules..."

At this moment, Jiang Ruyan slowly walked down the stairs, her purple skirt swaying.

"If the old gentleman wants it, of course he can, but the old gentleman is leaving now?" Jiang Ruyan's voice was charming.

"It's getting late, it's time to go back."

"Ruyan also prepared songs and dances for the old gentleman..."

"Another day, another day I will come alone." Lin Xiao grinned.

Jiang Ruyan didn't force him to stay, and said to the waiter: "Go prepare a bathtub and quilt, and pick them out."

"Yes!"

Things were moved quickly.

Lin Xiao asked about the price, Jiang Ruyan waved his hand: "No need, you are my distinguished guest."

Lin Xiao said sternly: "That's not okay. The old man won't take advantage of others despite his age."

Shangguan Feiyan muttered secretly on the side: You just took advantage of me, huh.

Jiang Ruyan refused again, and Lin Xiao thought for a moment: "In this case, the old man likes calligraphy and writes a poem for your store to express his feelings."

"That's great. Ruyan admires literati the most."

Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are ready.

Lin Xiao dipped his pen in the ink, pondered for a moment, and then wrote:

"Singing over wine, life is like dew in the morning, the past days are full of hardships, be generous with generosity, worry is unforgettable, how can you relieve worries, only Du Kang..."

After finishing writing a "Dan Ge Xing", Jiang Ruyan was stunned.

She picked up the paper and read it twice. When she raised her head, she couldn't hide her surprise: "The old gentleman has a great literary talent... He sings and drinks while drinking, and the geometry of life is really a quatrain."

"You talk nonsense after drinking, it's ridiculous."

Jiang Ruyan immediately asked the waiter to bring two boxes of good wine: "Sir, you must accept it. Ruyan would like to make friends with you."

Lin Xiao stopped refusing and held up his hands to express his thanks.

The carriage left the restaurant.

In front of the second floor window, Jiang Ruyan quietly watched the car shadow disappear into the night.

A subordinate behind him whispered: "Sister Ruyan, do you want to kill them?"

"No need." Jiang Ruyan's fingertips touched the ink on the poem, "This old man is interesting, he will come again."

"But he won so much money..."

Jiang Ruyan glanced back, and his men immediately lowered their heads.

"He has a steady pace and a strong aura. He is no ordinary farmer. He hunts all year round and has extraordinary skills. Don't take risks." Jiang Ruyan said lightly.

"Yes."

The man retreated and another man came closer: "Brother Dog, do you want to do it?"

The man who was called Brother Dog showed a fierce look in his eyes: "The boss is too cautious. How powerful can an old man be? Call the brothers and start halfway."
