As Yin Lin was sizing up Xiao Ruyue, Xiao Ruyue also looked towards her. Her gaze made Yin Lin feel extremely uncomfortable, she hurriedly gave her an excuse to go and get rid of her, then asked the waiter for the location of the toilet and left in a hurry.
Xiao Ruyue retracted her gaze, she was laughing behind her veil, but her smile was covered, so no one could see her.
After Yin Lin left, Xiao Ruyue let Shen Liang make the decision to order. Shen Liang hesitated for a moment, before saying: "Since this is the place you've chosen, then it's naturally you who shall order. We've never been there, so how would we know what's good or bad about this place? "
Shen Liang had no rebuttal, and followed the pattern of the table of dishes that Yuwen He and Xiao Jingyu had ordered at that time.
When the dishes were served, Yin Lin finally returned. She sat down and intentionally or unintentionally looked at Shen Liang and Qing Qing.
Judging from her expression, she must have used the excuse of going to the restroom to go through the entire restaurant. After confirming that there were no major problems, she came back.
Xiao Ruyue naturally saw through her tricks.
On a whim, she ran out of the palace without having arranged her guards in advance, which meant that she was putting herself in danger. Yin Lin and Shen Liangqing were both under the orders to protect her closely, so being extra careful was inevitable.
There were already a few tables of customers in the Spring Harmony Temple. After Xiao Ruyue and the rest, a few more tables of customers arrived.
While waiting for the dishes to arrive, Yin Lin had already poured tea for Xiao Ruyue. She looked around and took off her veil.
There was a private room on the second floor of the Spring Harmony Temple, but Xiao Ruyue had said that it would be better to stay downstairs, so going to the private room was boring.
When the waiter came to serve the dishes, he saw Xiao Ruyue's appearance from the corner of her eye, and her hands that were carrying the dishes froze in place. Her eyes were fixated on Xiao Ruyue's face, not moving at all. It was as if her soul had been taken, his face was filled with infatuation, and she stopped moving.
This girl was too good-looking. Her oval face was the size of a palm and her eyes were like they were made of water. Her small nose was extremely pretty and her small mouth was pink and tender.
The plate in his hand tilted and the soup ran down the side.
Qingqing was the closest to him, so she took his plate without a second word. Yin Lin coldly snorted right after: "Mhmm!"
The waiter suddenly woke up from his dream, and faced Yin Lin's gaze, he shuddered.
"Humph!" "F * ck off." Shen Liang was even colder. From his gaze, it was clear that he was saying: If you continue to look at me, this general will wring out your brain!
The waiter shivered again. He grabbed the tray and ran away as fast as he could, but he couldn't help but turn his head back.
At this moment, Shen Liang became even angrier. He wanted to slap the table and teach the waiter a lesson. How could a lowly commoner like the princess of a country, the Empress Xi Xia, be blasphemous! How preposterous!
The shopkeeper noticed that the situation was bad and immediately went over to apologize, and repeatedly said that he was unable to discipline the noble man, so he could not be blamed. However, his eyes could not help but drift towards Xiao Ruyue, revealing a look of infatuation.
The shopkeeper knew that he was in the wrong and apologized profusely. Only when Yin Lin glanced at him out of the corner of her eyes did he sensibly take a step back, and before she left did she say that she would not let that ignorant brat come over again.
Following that, he heard the fierce cursing of the head storekeeper in the kitchen. The sound was not small and attracted the other customers to look over. However, the storekeeper quickly came out from the back, smiling apologetically as he asked everyone to forgive him.
Anger appeared on Shen Liang's face. His hands were placed on the hilt of his saber, as though he was ready to charge in at any moment.
"Big Brother Shen, don't get angry." Xiao Ruyue said gently, "We are out, it is not good to blow the matter, after eating, we should go back, if we cause trouble, it will not be easy to settle."
"But …" Shen Liang felt indignant.
Yin Lin and Qing Qing also wanted to say something, but were interrupted by Xiao Ruyue, who shook her head: "She's just a lecherous little waiter. At most, we can just scoop out his eyeballs."
Xiao Ruyue laughed and said, her smile was harmless.
Shen Liang nodded his head blankly, while Yin Lin and Qing Qing revealed an understanding look on their faces.
The three of them didn't say anything.
When the last few dishes were served, the waiter who was staring at Xiao Ruyue did not appear. When the dishes were all served, Xiao Ruyue started to eat without a trace of politeness.
She was the first to start eating, and then called for Shen Liang, Yin Lin and Qing Qing to make their move.
Some people praised him, saying that the spring vacation was truly worthy of its name. The dishes cooked by the guests were excellent, especially the famous dishes such as the half a river moon, Earthly Paradise, Flowerblooming flowers, and so on, they were not inferior to the famous Taibai Lou at all.
Xiao Ruyue and the others also had this dish on their table, which made them excited as they listened to the conversation around them. When they put down their chopsticks, they had the intention to taste the dish, to see if it was really as good as the rumors said it was.
Amongst the four of them, Xiao Ruyue was the happiest one. She ate slowly and quickly, and ate with relish. She looked so beautiful, yet she could not find any fault with the way she ate. On the contrary, it was very pleasing to look at.
He saw her happily eating, but her movements were sluggish. For some reason, she shook her head, "Why do I feel a little dizzy? My entire body doesn't have any strength."
"Madam, what's the matter?" Yin Lin was so shocked that her hands froze. She put down her chopsticks and wanted to help her see if she was alright.
Xiao Ruyue shook her head, she opened her mouth to say something, but before she could, she closed her eyes and fainted.
"Madam!" Yin Lin stood up in shock.
Qing Qing and Shen Liang stopped what they were doing at the same time. Sensing that something was wrong, Shen Liang drew his sword from its sheath with a "dang" sound.
The customers at the tables that were eating excitedly had a change in expression, they took out their weapons from under the tables and surrounded Xiao Ruyue and the rest.
The door closed somehow.
Qing Qing also held her sword tight, while Yin Lin supported Xiao Ruyue, the three of them vigilantly staring at the surrounding assassins.
"Who are you people? What do you want to do? " Yin Lin asked coldly.
The encirclement became smaller and smaller, but when Qing Qing wanted to rush out, her steps stopped. It seemed that she couldn't stand steadily either.
Not only her, even Yin Lin and Shen Liang was like this.
"What tricks did you do in the food and tea!" Shen Liang's face darkened. He swayed on his feet as though he was unable to stand, and it was said that he wielded the blade in his hand to confront his opponent.
"In order for you to be captured, I naturally have to do a lot of things in the food." A hoarse male voice came from the direction of the stove, "The Ten Incense Soft Muscle Powder tastes pretty good, right? Is it because I can't breathe, because my body is weak, and I feel dizzy? "
The curtain was lifted and a man wearing a black robe and a black mask walked out. He walked over with his hands behind his back, looking extremely confident and proud of himself.
The assassins looked at him the moment the black-clothed man appeared. He was clearly the leader of these people.
In the spring and Ramadan there was only the sound of footsteps.
Shen Liang glared at him and said, "Just who do you think you are and what you want to do?!"
"Of course it's this woman!" "Put him down, kneel and beg for mercy, I can still spare your lives, if you want to put up a resistance, then don't blame me for killing you!"
"If you want to kill me, then kill me. What are you talking about? Kneeling and begging for mercy!" "Hmph!" Qingqing snorted disdainfully. She raised her face, but it was filled with pride. "If you want to touch my wife, then step over our corpses!"
"My wife is as noble as the sun and the moon. How could you, a bastard from who knows where, meddle in her thoughts?!" "I advise you to stop as soon as possible. Don't die without even knowing how you died!" Although Yin Lin could not stand anymore, his momentum was not weak at all.
Afraid that he would lose his balance, Shen Liang placed one hand on the table, while the other gripped his saber tightly. He was prepared to engage in a bloody battle with these people at any moment.
"Scram if you know what's good for you. There's still time!"
"Even if you speak too fast, it's useless!" If we don't keep the people here today, you guys can forget about going anywhere! "
As soon as the leader of the group, a masked man dressed in black, gave the order, the fake customers from the restaurant rushed over unrestrainedly.
Leaving Yin Lin to protect Xiao Ruyue, Shen Liang and Qing Qing rushed out and started to fight with the assassin.
Perhaps it was because he had suffered from the Weakness Powder, but Shen Liang, who was known for his superior kung fu skills, did not have the upper hand in battle. He even struggled to fight against a few assassins who were much weaker than him.
Yin Lin took out her flexible sword and protected the unconscious Xiao Ruyue with one hand, while facing the enemy with the other. The assassins were already in front of her, and she couldn't bear them any longer.
The leader, the masked man in black led the crowd and walked towards Xiao Ruyue. Shen Liang and Qing Qing saw the situation changed and wanted to retreat, but the assassins used everything they had to delay them, and kill them with their moves. They retreated without a door, and could only watch as the black-masked man approached Yin Lin and Xiao Ruyue under the encirclement of numerous assassins.
"It's too late to stop now!" Yin Lin protected Xiao Ruyue with one hand, the flexible sword stood in front of her to protect her, "If something happens to my wife, my Patriarch will definitely burn your bones to ashes to make you die a graveless death!"
"You can't even protect yourself, and you still dare to say such harsh words. Do you think I'm afraid of you, a servant?!"
The black masked man looked at the people around him, and a few of them went to retrieve Yin Lin's weapon. On the other hand, the masked man dressed in black snatched Xiao Ruyue out of Yin Lin's embrace.
Xiao Ruyue was still in slumber, his body was so soft that it was grabbed by the black masked man, he laughed out loud, "Your wife is now in my hands, I will take her away immediately! This reputed one would like to see how your Patriarch will burn my bones and scatter my ashes!
"How dare you!" Yin Lin was so angry that his entire body was trembling, he was held captive by a few people, and struggled with all his might, but to no avail.
Shen Liang and Qing Qing were already exhausted. Surrounded by the assassins, they shook in anger.
After the black masked man laughed complacently, he supported Xiao Ruyue and was about to leave, but right at this moment, Xiao Ruyue made her move — —
