Yun Qixi raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, and asked with a profound smile: "Which girl is so lucky?"
Shan Jingyan stared at her deeply, "This is for you."
"Me?" Yun Qixi's jaw dropped, "Why?"
Shan Jingyan suddenly raised his hand and used his slender fingers to brush away a strand of hair in front of her eyes.
Ever since he had met Shan Jingyan tonight, he had held her hand twice and she had never felt awkward before, but at this moment, she really felt an instant of awkwardness. His actions, as well as the way he acted, were very much like the actions of lovers.
"Yun Qixi was born on the evening of the seventh night in the fifth year of the Heavenly Treasure, so she was named the seventh night. Today is the seventeenth day of the twenty-first year of Heavenly Treasures. It is your sixteenth birthday. "
Shan Jingyan spoke slowly, as if this information had already existed in his heart.
"You know?" Yun Qixi was surprised.
Qiao Er, who had always been at the side, sadly replied, "Yes, today is indeed Miss Er's birthday, and also, it is Second Madam's birthday."
The initial awkwardness quickly faded due to the heavy topic that Qiao Er suddenly brought up.
Catching the sight of Yun Qixi's stiff face, Shan Jingyan's gentle smile flashed with a hint of pain, and his voice became gentler, "So, this jade hairpin is my birthday present to you."
In reality, whether it was the Yun Qixi who had teleported over or the Duke Palace's Miss Er, both of them were having their birthdays today. In the past, only her mother would remember her birthday, including her stupid father. He never thought that he would still receive a birthday present after teleporting to the Great Swallow.
If she remembered correctly, this was the second time they had met.
"Four …" Just as Yun Qixi was about to speak, Shan Jingyan had already placed his fingers on her lips.
His fingers were warm, his eyes warm as the spring sun, and he shook his head slightly at her to silence her.
The crowd was noisy, and he said in a low voice, "In private, just call me Jing Yan."
Yun Qixi scratched her ear awkwardly, then laughed, "This is the first gift I received today, okay, then I won't hold back, thank you, Jing Yan."
Satisfied with her address, Shan Jingyan smiled and nodded, "Three days later, I will get someone to send you a gift."
They left the crowded crowd at the Agarwood Pavillion gate and aimlessly walked on the main street. What they didn't know was that Wan Xi had already handed the embroidered handkerchief over to their master.
In the second floor of Agarwood Pavillion, a person stood quietly at the window that had been opened. His position allowed him to see all the scenes on the street in a single glance, but his line of sight was not in the mood to watch the hubbub of the Double Seventh Night.
Along the way, Yun Qixi talked and walked, but she discovered that Shan Jingyan was a person who really knew how to listen. Even if the topic of conversation was not of interest to him, he would still smile and listen, her demeanor was very good.
Just as they were walking, a person suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their path.
"Fourth Prince, Miss Yun, I will wait for you at Drunk And Delicious."
The corner of Yun Qixi's mouth twitched. The Ge Feng in front of him was still as expressionless as ever after ten thousand years. He was the same as his father, as if he owed someone else.
Qiao Er opened her mouth wide, pulling on Yun Qixi's sleeves, "Miss Er, Prince Jin also knows that you have come out, looks like this paper can't wrap fire."
Seeing Qiao Er being shocked, Yun Qixi comforted her and patted her hand that was pulling her sleeve, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, let's have fun."
Before long, they had arrived at the entrance of Drunk And Delicious.
She remembered that last time when Shan Liancheng introduced these famous people, they were at the opposite side of the Drunk And Delicious, and she also remembered that the Drunk And Delicious was right next to them.
Not far away, a lovely and gentle voice came from the entrance of the Cuiliu Residence, causing Yun Qixi to immediately get goosebumps. But at this moment, Shan Jingyan unnoticeably frowned.
Once she entered the Drunk And Delicious, Yun Qixi finally understood why this place was the restaurant that these officials and nobles welcomed the most. In the ancient times, in terms of configuration, this place could definitely be considered a five star place.
Today was the Double Seventh Festival, and it was already nightfall. Right now, there was a lot of traffic.
The first floor of the Drunk And Delicious, which could not be seen from the outside world, was currently filled with people, and was extremely lively.
They followed Ge Feng all the way up to the second floor. Compared to the noise on the first floor, the second floor was quieter.
They had arrived at the door of a private room, and Yun Qixi saw a lonely, cold figure sitting quietly outside the window while facing the other side.
"Master, Fourth Prince and Miss Yun are here." Ge Feng said as he walked forward.
As the wheelchair turned around, his indifferent gaze turned over, bringing with it an indistinct chilliness.
"Third Brother." Shan Jingyan called out politely.
"This servant greets Prince Jin." The Qiao Er also bowed.
"Your leg's healed?" Shan Liancheng's gaze moved up Yun Qixi's legs, and landed on her face again. These words were clearly directed at her.
Yun Qixi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, so she stopped opening her eyes, "That's enough."
After answering him, she suddenly thought about why she was so nervous the moment she saw him. He wasn't a jackal or a tiger, not to mention, she hadn't provoked him. He couldn't just randomly bite people, and there was a third person.
"Prince Jin, I am not talented, so I know a little about medicine. My little injuries are nothing, if Your Highness is willing, I can let me see, maybe I can help you stand up very quickly."
The color in Shan Liancheng's eyes was very dark, while he was stunned for a moment. Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and an understanding appeared within his bland smile.
"Qixi, you can cure Third Brother's legs?"
Yun Qixi glanced at Shan Liancheng, and laughed: "Actually there are a lot of times where treatment isn't only a matter of doctors, it also has a lot to do with the patient. If the patient doesn't want to recover, then no matter how good the doctor is, there's nothing that can be done, right, Prince Jin?"
Shan Liancheng stared at her without saying a word. He then looked back at her with a smile that was not a smile.
"Third Brother, I was on the way just now and coincidentally met Seventh Year's Eve. I didn't expect you to come out as well. If we knew earlier, we would have gone straight for the Drunk And Delicious."
Shan Jingyan said with a relaxed tone, attempting to break this strange atmosphere. As for Shan Liancheng, when he heard the two words "Seventy Day", his eyes lightly narrowed.
After half a quarter of an hour, he slowly shifted his gaze away from Yun Qixi and looked at him. The cold light in his eyes dimmed a little, and he said indifferently, "It's not too late now, the food has not been served." He turned to look at Ge Feng, "Ge Feng, send the message, serve the dishes."
After a while, the dishes were served. Although there weren't many dishes, it was definitely exquisite.
Shan Liancheng had already walked from the window to the table, Shan Jingyan unceremoniously sat down, he turned his head and saw that Yun Qixi was still standing there, smiling as she called out to her, "What are you standing there for? Come and sit down. "
After saying that, he looked at Shan Liancheng, a trace of sadness flashing past his eyes. Staring at the dishes on the table, he chuckled, "In a month, you will be one family. When that time comes, I will call you Third Sister."
Shan Liancheng held onto the wine cup with his slender fingers, he picked up the wine cup and took a sip, not saying a word.
Yun Qixi suddenly thought of the phrase 'eating doesn't eat is free, eating is free', and then, there was the phrase 'drunk today'. As a result, her originally light worries and worries were quickly dispelled. She walked over and calmly sat down, and smiled, but that smile was directed at Shan Jingyan.
"Fourth Prince, who knows what will happen in a month? As the saying goes, a plan can't change as quickly as it is changed. At that time, there might be some unforeseen event. "
It was only when she finished speaking that Yun Qixi finally shifted her gaze towards Shan Liancheng, and successfully saw his eternally cold face darken a little.
At this moment, on the big round table, the three people were seated in a triangle, if not for the warm and uncontainable smile on Shan Jingyan's face, he would have felt that he was a three-legged man.
"Third Brother, this is your favorite Gui Hua Fish, eat more." Shan Jingyan picked up a piece of Osmanthus Fish and placed it in Shan Liancheng's bowl.
He was always like this, sensitive and intelligent, aware that the atmosphere was not right and would come out at the right time to act as a defender.
His gaze swept across the table as he asked, "Qixi, these are all dishes with very unique Drunk And Delicious. What do you like to eat?"
Actually, Yun Qixi only came out after eating dinner, although she had the attitude of not eating for nothing, but her stomach was still full, so she had no appetite at all. After looking at it for a long time, she sighed, "I'm afraid that no chef will be able to cook what I like."
"Oh?" Shan Jingyan's interest was piqued, he put down his chopsticks, and smiled as he looked at her, "That's not necessarily true, there are a lot of good chefs in Drunk And Delicious, what do you like to eat? "Tell me about it."
Yun Qixi stared at him and laughed: "I like to eat KFC."
Shan Jingyan seemed to have been knocked over, and his brows furrowed slightly, "There's a steamed yellow chicken, a steamed chicken, and a flower chicken. I have never heard of a Kendall chicken's method before."
Puff!
Fortunately Yun Qixi reacted quickly, and at the same time she put down the teacup, she tilted her head and spat a mouthful of tea on the ground. Otherwise, the entire table's delicacy would have been destroyed by her.
It was as if she had been stabbed in a laughing hole. She could not stop laughing. She leaned on the table, laughing until the entire table was shaking.
It was only until Qiao Er, who was standing at the side, pulled at her sleeve, that she finally raised her head and held onto her stomach which was aching from laughing. Only then did she see Shan Jingyan's face filled with astonishment, while Shan Liancheng's face had already turned dark from her laughter.
"Is there really that Kendall chicken you were talking about?" Shan Jingyan asked suspiciously. Seeing Yun Qixi laughing so crazily, he suspected that she had been tricked.
After hearing his question, Yun Qixi's smile that had originally faded came back again. Seeing Shan Jingyan's embarrassed expression, she strongly restrained herself and laughed, "There really is one, it's just that ordinary chefs can't do it."
Although he was still skeptical, Shan Jingyan did not pursue the question. Laughing, he took down a small blue and white porcelain wine jug from his waist, and poured a small cup into the wine cup in front of him. When he poured the wine, he could not help but cough twice.
Shan Liancheng reached out and pressed down his hand, looking at him, "Fourth brother, drink less of your body."
Shan Jingyan laughed, "Don't worry Third Brother, it's fine, I'm not used to drinking any other wine, I only drink my own wine."
Seeing that he was insistent, Shan Liancheng finally let go of his hand.
Yun Qixi thought back to her first time meeting Shan Jingyan who had fainted in the pavilion, and the wine jug in his hand. She took his pulse. His body was worrying.
"You can't drink too much." she said.
Shan Jingyan raised his head, seeing the worry in her eyes, he laughed gently: "It's okay, I won't drink too much, it's just a small cup."
"Heh, it's so lively!"
Suddenly, a drunken voice could be heard at the door.
