Chapter 64 Overnight
"Yes, Brother Jiang is an aspiring man with outstanding literary talents." Bai Fengyu smiled and served another pair of bowls and chopsticks, and some delicious dishes, "It's rare to meet a close friend in life, and today I will definitely break up with Brother Jiang." I won’t come back when I’m drunk.”

"Okay..." Before Zuo Xiangning finished speaking, a man sat down next to him and asked with a smile: "I didn't know when you had an extraordinary drinking capacity?"

Zuo Xiangning looked at the man beside her.

"Who is this?" Bai Fengyu asked curiously.

"This is my brother." Zuo Xiangning rushed to introduce.

"It turns out it's Brother Jiang," Bai Fengyu stood up quickly and poured a cup of tea for Ling Xiao, "Bai is disrespectful, so I'd like to invite Brother Jiang to Haihan."

"Cousin, Brother Bai, this is my cousin." Zuo Xiangning hurriedly looked sideways at Ling Xiao and said silently with a smile: "In front of the public, please give me some face."

Ling Xiao took a deep look at her, reached out to pick up the tea cup, and said to Bai Fengyu, "I am lucky to meet Brother Bai."

Zuo Xiangning picked up the teacup and clinked the cup with Ling Xiao with a smile. Ling Xiao's cold gaze brought her to her lips and she swallowed it all at once.

As a man, it was the first time for Zuo Xiangning to talk freely with others in public. She was excited and excited. When Ling Xiao glared at her, her good mood suddenly disappeared. She ate some food and then put it down. Bowls and chopsticks, I can no longer eat them.

"Brother Bai has to drive through the night tonight, so let's not delay Brother Bai's schedule." Ling Xiao also put down his chopsticks and said, "I wish Brother Bai a safe journey. See you later."

"See you later." Bai Fengyu stood up, bowed his hands to the two of them, turned around and left casually.

Zuo Xiangning stood there, looking at him enviously.

How nice would it be if I were a man?

He can be as free as he is and can go wherever he wants.

"My eyes are about to fall off. Do you want to go with him? Do you want to catch up and ask him if he is going to the northwest?"

Zuo Xiangning glared at him and returned to the room first.

Ling Xiao asked the waiter to cook a few more delicious dishes before slowly going upstairs.

Zuo Xiangning was lying on the bed and asked him: "I want the waiter to bring in two more tables and put the tables together to use as beds, is that okay?"

"It's up to you. I won't sleep up there anyway." Ling Xiao sat down next to her.

Zuo Xiangning hurriedly got up from the bed, "I'm going to sleep!"

She ran out to find the waiter, but the waiter told him that there were no extra tables unless all the guests had finished eating in the evening and they could be lifted up from downstairs.

Even two people might not be able to lift the big wooden table downstairs.

"Do you sleep well?" Ling Xiao asked.

"What are you doing?" Zuo Xiangning sat down at the table in disappointment and said angrily, "The table is useless."

"I don't mind squeezing in with you." Ling Xiao sat on the edge of the bed and took off his shirt, "I sleep well."

Zuo Xiangning rolled her eyes at him, picked up the tea cup and took two sips of tea. Her stomach was not even half full.

There was a knock on the door outside.

Zuo Xiangning opened the door and saw that the waiter had brought in several dishes, as well as two large pieces of sauced beef and pancake bags.

"It's so late, why do you need so much food?" Zuo Xiangning's eyes couldn't help but shine when she saw the delicious food, "Isn't this beef in soy sauce too much?"

Ling Xiao looked at the little woman who had a sad face just now, but now she was as happy as a little house sparrow.

He walked to the table with a smile, "That's what I'll take on the road tomorrow to eat. Do you think it's for you?"

"You have to take all these dishes away?" Zuo Xiangning's little face suddenly collapsed, "How can you take this watery soup with you? Even if you carry it with a food box, it will spill everywhere."

"Are you really stupid?" Ling Xiao handed the chopsticks to her, "The beef and bag are taken away, and the rest are for you to eat now." "Really?" Zuo Xiangning picked up the chopsticks. , smiled and asked: "How do you know I'm not full?"

"I'm not as stupid as you." Ling Xiao picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the spicy chicken. He nodded and said, "This tastes good."

Zuo Xiangning's big black and white eyes slowly curved into crescents. She also picked up a piece of diced chicken and nodded repeatedly after eating, "Well, it's really delicious."

"It's delicious, just eat more." Ling Xiao pushed the Dongpo Pork in front of her, "Their food is pretty good too."

Zuo Xiangning took a sip and found it to be really good.

"Do you often live here?" Zuo Xiangning asked curiously.

"Yes." Ling Xiao nodded, "Every time I go to the west or south, I will stay here for a night. The scenery here is very beautiful, especially the sunrise."

"Really? Then I have to get up and watch tomorrow morning." Zuo Xiangning raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "Do you want me to call you?"

"Are you sure you can get up?"

"Of course." Zuo Xiangning rolled her eyes at him, "I don't even have a place to sleep at night, so what else can I sleep on?"

"You can sleep on the bed." Ling Xiao said.

"Really?" Zuo Xiangning said with a smile: "I was indeed right, the prince is really an upright and honorable man."

"The bed is big enough anyway." Ling Xiao smiled and pushed the beef patties in front of her. "Try this. If it tastes good, take some with you to eat on the road tomorrow."

"Will we still ride horses tomorrow?" Zuo Xiangning asked with lingering fear.

"Not only do you have to ride a horse, you also have to work hard, day and night." Ling Xiao said seriously: "Try to reach Zhangye within ten days and go north together with the team escorting the grain and grass."

"Ten days?" Zuo Xiangning's eyes widened in surprise, "Riding at night and day, for ten days and ten nights?"

"Aren't you in a hurry?" Ling Xiao poured her a glass of wine, "Try this."

"I don't know how to drink." Zuo Xiangning was anxious, but her butt started to hurt when she heard about riding horses every day. How could she be in the mood to drink?
"Don't you still want to stay with me until you get drunk?" Ling Xiao said with a smile, "I thought you had a good drinking capacity."

Zuo Xiangning asked with a grimace: "Can we go to a nearby city tomorrow? Didn't you say it gets colder as we go to the northwest? I have to buy two thick clothes, right?"

"The reason why business here is so good is because it is located at the junction of the three places, but it is not close to the three places. The nearest county is a day's journey away." Ling Xiao smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm here. It won’t freeze you.”

Zuo Xiangning's face turned slightly red as she thought of his chrome-like body.

She stopped talking, picked up her chopsticks, ate the vegetables in big mouthfuls, and after eating a small bowl of rice, she put down her chopsticks and said, "Use it slowly."

Zuo Xiangning walked to the window, pushed it open, and watched the river rushing eastward rolling away under the bright moonlight, sparkling and quite spectacular.

After leaving Xianglanzhai and the capital, she had to believe that the world was really big.

Ling Xiao sat at the table, staring at the woman's back, drinking wine slowly, and felt a sense of tranquility and comfort.

After finishing the bottle of wine, he asked the waiter to come in and clear the table. He stood behind Zuo Xiangning and whispered: "You have to get up early tomorrow."

Zuo Xiangning closed the window, turned around and sat on the chair, "You just said you wanted me to sleep on the bed, is that true?"

"Of course it's true." Ling Xiao said, "I always keep my word."

"It's a deal!" Zuo Xiangning jumped up happily, ran to the bed, put down the bed curtain, took off her shirt and got into the quilt, doing it in one go, without even stopping for a moment.

This prince is actually a pretty good person.

"Can you go a little further in?" The bed curtain was suddenly lifted, and the man's tall figure blocked the edge of the bed. "Give me some room, too."
