The West Lake of Yangzhou — — Tian Xin Building

When Lu Haoran received the jasmine tea, he was slightly stunned. The refreshing fragrance of the tea made him feel like he was in a dream. It was a familiar scene, as if he had sat on the same bamboo stool and drunk the same tea long ago. The only difference was that the other person drinking tea was that the blurry smile on his face was replaced by Qian Piaoxue's peerless beauty, causing people to be unable to differentiate between dream and reality.

Quan Er said: "My family's young master will be here shortly. Young Master Lu, please have some tea first."

Lu Haoran nodded, and asked: "Can we first send Miss Piao Xue in to rest? I'm afraid she won't be able to take all the work she has gone through."

Quan Er clapped his hands and called over a servant to help him enter the house, leaving Lu Haoran to inspect the bamboo house.

The more he looked, the more familiar he felt. A voice at the bottom of Lu Haoran's heart continuously told him that he remembered this place and that he had been here before. Unfortunately, memories answered him. He had never been to Yangzhou, let alone the West Lake.

Without even drinking the tea, Lu Haoran lightly tapped his head in an attempt to shake off that blurry image. As he was working hard, a delicate fragrance drifted past him, and when Lu Haoran raised his head, it just so happened to match the Young Master Youxiang's elegant smile.

Yue Zijun cupped his hands and smiled: "Young Master Lu, thank you for your hard work."

Lu Haoran felt powerless, and asked angrily: "Are you that confident in me? Aren't you afraid that I'll change my mind midway? "

"As expected of Young Master Lu, you are indeed worthy of being a gentleman. I, Yue, have not misjudged you."

That's why you set me up? He was being chased all the way back. If he didn't have a strong foundation in martial arts and his luck wasn't good, he would have already ascended to heaven.

Thinking about it, he threw Yue Zijun a resentful look and said: "Young Master Youxiang is indeed Young Master Youxiang, we have already arranged everything beforehand, even without my protection, there will be people supporting Miss Qian on the way, but I am the one who is feeling poor and nervous, causing people to laugh."

Yue Zijun laughed lightly and said: "I, Yue Yang, have indeed made some arrangements to prevent myself from being separated from Miss Qian during my escape, but I am not certain. With Young Master Lu's protection, I can ensure the safety of Miss Qian. Isn't it? "

Lu Haoran was speechless. She wanted to retort, but was unable to find the appropriate words to say. In the end, she had no choice but to compromise, "As long as the Miss Qian is safe."

However, Yue Zijun said: "Yueyu did not say that Miss Qian would be safe once we arrive at the Tian Xin Building!"

"Huh?"

"If Young Master Lu really is as rumored in the outside world to be a responsible person …" Yue Zijun bent down and whispered into Lu Haoran's ears: "Please..."

Lu Haoran's face gradually became ugly as he listened to Yue Zijun's words...

That night, Yue Zijun left Lu Haoran, who was visiting, at the Tian Xin Building. Lu Haoran happily accepted it, and when he went to the back of the house, he coincidentally saw a bunch of flowers in the backyard that were blooming with flower buds, and asked: "What kind of flowers are these?"

Quan Er replied, "Jasmine!"

"Jasmine?" Lu Haoran was startled, and could not help but ask: "All of these were planted by your Young Noble? Now it's bud setting? "

Quan Er smiled, "Mn, elsewhere would require five months before they can blossom. Our Tian Xin Building's jasmine flowers can bloom in four months, and we will bloom all the way until September!"

No wonder he smells so good. Lu Haoran thought, if this Young Master Youxiang spent the entire day with the flowers in the garden, it would not be strange for her to have such a strange fragrance.

"Young Master Lu, this is your bedroom." Quan Er brought Lu Haoran outside the room, pushed open the door and said: "My family's young master resides there, Miss Qian resides in the small courtyard on the right. It is the place where the servants live. If Young Master has any instructions, just say them. "

"Thank you."

"Then, young master, rest well. I'll go down first."

After sending Quan Er off, Lu Haoran entered the room, looking at the simple and elegant decorations of the house, a familiar burst of throbbing once again.

He held his head with one hand as he slowly sat down, attempting to grab onto that faint shadow. However, in the end, it all ended in failure.

What was wrong with him?

Why did his memories become so strange the moment he stepped into the Tian Xin Building?

As Lu Haoran lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, he suddenly heard the sound of a flute coming from outside the room.

He got up and opened the window, only to see a dashing young master standing amidst the jasmine flowers. His goose-yellow robe shone with a faint pearly white under the moonlight, and the ribbons in his hair fluttered in the night wind. His hands were as thin as porcelain, and each of his knuckles looked slender and perfect.

Two words flashed across Lu Haoran's mind — Under the Moon Gentleman.

And this person was none other than Yue Zijun.

"Young Master Yue is so elegant." At the end of the song, Lu Haoran clapped his hands and praised: "Wen Jun's song, it could even be said that her arms were bursting with wind, and she almost ran away to the moon."

"Young Master Lu must be joking." Yue Zijun turned around and smiled humbly.

That smile was even brighter than the moon at the horizon. It suddenly smashed into Lu Haoran's heart, causing his heart to beat twice as fast as usual.

Yue Zijun asked: "Young Master Lu, why aren't you sleeping this late?"

Lu Haoran was still at a loss because of his palpitation, and didn't say a word.

"Young Master Lu?"

"Huh?"

"What's the matter with you?"

"I …" Lu Haoran held his chest as he tried to describe what it felt like, but after staring at Yue Zijun for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Have we really not met before?"

Yue Zijun was surprised, and said indifferently: "Sir Yue and Sir Lu did not have any relationship before Heaven Vanishing Valley, as for whether or not you have seen each other before … I'm not sure. "

"Is that so …" Lu Haoran was a little disappointed, he went back to the hut and said: "It's getting late, I won't be accompanying you, Young Master Yue should also rest early!" He closed the window.

Lu Haoran lied down on the bed, his heart was still filled with unspeakable melancholy from the previous answer.

Did they really have no relationship at all?

Strange …

He had only asked them if they had seen it before, but why did Yue Zijun insist that they were not friends?

This Yue Zijun … It always felt weird.

Yue Zijun saw Lu Haoran turn off the lights in the window and returned back to his room.

Inside the room, Quan Er was dozing off while guarding the lamp. When she heard the Young Noble enter, she suddenly woke up and got up: "Young Noble."

"Mm, it's getting late. You should go and sleep!"

"I will wait upon young master to change."

"No, I don't want to sleep yet."

Quan Er sighed and said: "Is Young Master unable to sleep because Young Master Lu is sleeping in the opposite door?"

Yue Zijun glared at Quan Er, and scolded him: "How do I usually teach you? "He's becoming more and more impudent."

Quan Er pouted and replied: "How would I dare to say anything to Young Master! But Quan Er had something he had no choice but to ask Young Master. "

"What is it?"

"Does Young Master really plan to travel with Young Master Lu?"

"So what?"

"Young master!" Quan Er became flustered: "Who swore to the heavens that they would never get involved with Young Master Lu again? Who said that if I see him again, I will die a horrible death? Young master! The first three feet of the head is filled with a god. If you go back on your word, you will be punished! "

"Are you hoping that this young master will receive his retribution?"

Quan Er stomped his feet and said anxiously: "Young Noble! "You!"

Yue Zijun laughed and patted Quan Er's head: "Alright, alright, I know that you're worried about me, but I'm not the one looking for him this time, he's the one looking for me."

"However, Young Noble took the initiative and invited me, Young Noble Lu, to escort Miss Qian to the north."

"There's nothing I can do. With so many people chasing after Qian Piaoxue, how can I protect him?"

"But Young Master also said that he was destined to go against the righteous path of martial arts. Wouldn't that implicate Young Master Lu?"

"Quan Er!" Yue Zijun sighed, "It's exactly because I know that that's why I can't let him go …" He looked in the direction of Lu Haoran's house and said: "This time, even if I send Qian Piaoxue away, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in the Central Plains Martial Forest. I won't have the chance to see Haoran again in the future.

Quan Er saw the sadness in Yue Zijun's eyes, and couldn't bear it anymore. He softened his tone: "Quan Er didn't have any intention to blame Young Master, Quan Er just … "But …"

"I understand. You are doing this for my own good."

"There's also Young Master Lu! I'm afraid that even if you do that, he won't be able to stand up in the Central Plains martial arts Lin. "

"Idiot Quan Er, since I have decided to do this, I naturally have a way to help Haoran purge his wounds. These so-called righteous path martial artists are actually very easy to deceive." As he said that, Yue Zijun revealed a confident smile, causing Quan Er to shake his head.

Young master, oh young master! You're too smart! But he didn't know that sometimes, he would be tricked by his own intelligence!
