“…” Gu Yanfei was stunned.
She finally understood. No wonder this cat became even more “pampered” after leaving home for a few days last time. It only ate fish belly meat and fish eyeballs, slept with wool or silk blankets, and played with toys that were all night pearls. Even its claws had to be sharpened with white rattan mats.
This cat had been spoiled by Xia Houqing!
Gu Yanfei glanced at the cat lying on the red handkerchief and asked Xia Houqing sincerely, “Are you short of cats?”
Who would want such a stupid cat!
Xia Houqing raised his brow and scoffed. “What do I need a cat for? To provide for it?!”
It wasn’t a bad offering either! The young man in black nodded repeatedly and stared at the cat in a daze.
“Meow, meow, meow!”
The cat cried out indignantly and jumped nimbly from the ground to the table. It exhaled fiercely at Xia Houqing and bared its teeth.
How obedient! The young man in black was about to kneel down to the cat. He took out a bag of fragrant dried fish from his sleeve to show respect to the cat.
The other three people in the pavilion ignored the cat.
“Lord Xia, please take a seat.” Chu Yi raised his hand and invited Xia Houqing to sit down. His slightly raised eyebrows showed his good mood at this moment.
Xia Houqing didn’t move and instead looked down at Chu Yi arrogantly.
Chu Yi didn’t mind. He picked up the wine pot and personally poured two glasses of wine. He pushed one glass toward Gu Yanfei and handed the other to Xia Houqing. His actions were elegant, flowing like water, and as relaxed as the clouds.
The white wine fragrance escaped from the cup and lingered in the air.
The last time, in an elegant seat at Rongxiang Teahouse, Chu Yi had also handed Xia Houqing a cup of pear blossom white wine. At that time, Xia Houqing didn’t take it.
This time, Xia Houqing raised his hand and took the cup of pear blossom white wine.
He raised his chin and finished the wine in his glass.
The line of his chin became clearer and more beautiful as he raised his head.
His overly fair skin glowed slightly in the sunlight, making his red clothes look like blood against his snow-white skin.
After drinking it, Xia Houqing casually threw the wine glass away in disdain before sitting down. His crimson clothes meandered to the ground like water.
Although he received the wine and drank it, which meant that he agreed to cooperate with Chu Yi, Xia Houqing still looked at Chu Yi with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
His gaze wasn’t that of looking at a friend, but more like looking at an opponent worthy of his full effort.
Chu Yi was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. It was satisfying to work with a wolf, but he had to be wary of being bitten by a wolf at any time.
Fortunately, he was also not a good person.
Xia Houqing’s cold and devilish phoenix eyes lowered slightly, and a cold arc appeared at the end of his eyes.
“How straightforward.” Chu Yi didn’t care about the other party’s attitude. In fact, the corners of his lips curled up a little more. He clapped his hands gently and said, “Other than the Yu family, I can give you another gift.”
“Oh?” Xia Houqing raised his thick black eyebrows. “I don’t accept just any gift.”
“Baili Yin,” Chu Yi said gently.
He was an elegant young master, gentle and refined. Even if it was a human life he was referring to, he still looked calm, as if he was reciting a poem.
Xia Houqing’s slender and beautiful fingers casually rubbed the white porcelain wine glass twice. The dark red blood ring on his finger flowed with a blood-like luster as he looked down disdainfully.
“Hch.” Xia Houqing chuckled softly. The corners of his lips curled up strangely, as if he was wearing a demon fox mask. He said slowly, “The Eighth Princess of the State of Yue, Princess Ximing, is indeed a rare beauty. Young Master Yi, are you really willing?”
If Baili Yin died in the State of Jin, Chu Yi would have no fate with this beauty.
Xia Houqing slowed down his speech, his eyes filled with undisguised schadenfreude. His voice became gentler and more charming. “I heard that Princess Ximing is only 28 years old, but she’s still unwilling to choose a husband because she has someone she likes.”
“Beauty?” Gu Yanfei rested her chin on her hand. Her sleeves fell down and slowly unfolded like blooming petals, revealing a wrist cup as delicate as jade.
She said with interest, “Princess Ximing of the State of Yue?”
Chu Yi’s crow-feather-likc eyelashes trembled rapidly twice. His hand subconsciously tightened around the wine glass in his hand. In an instant, a rare tense expression appeared on his face.
The next moment, Gu Yanfei asked Xia Houqing curiously, “Is there a portrait?” Gu Yanfei’s eyes lit up. She cherished looking at beauties the most!
Chu Yi chuckled softly. His tone was light and slow as he asked nonchalantly, “A portrait?”
He poured more wine for Gu Yanfei.
The corners of Xia Houqing’s eyes twitched slightly. He couldn’t be bothered with them and gestured to the youth in black.
The youth in black immediately understood. He took out a jade pot and a matching jade cup from the wooden box he carried with him and poured the clear and transparent Lanling wine into the jade cup.
When Gu Yanfei saw that Xia Houqing was silent, she guessed that there was no portrait of Princess Ximing. She didn’t care and drank the fragrant wine in her cup.
The calico cat finished the dried fish fed by the young man in black and was finally satisfied. It jumped up and happily went to find fun by itself.
“Meow-”
It happily chased after the blue peacock.
The blue peacock was shocked and yelled again. It flapped its wings and fled. It flew and ran at the same time. A few blue feathers floated in the air in a tizzy.
Gu Yanfei was also attracted by this scene and laughed uncontrollably.
After a while, she heard Xia Houqing’s jade-like voice again. “This ’gift’ is probably what you want, Young Master Yi.”
Xia Houqing looked at Chu Yi with a firm expression, his entire body surrounded by a blood-like hostility..
