Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 209 Lotus Tower (12)

Li Xiangyi quickly grabbed the reins of the carriage and shouted, "Whoa~" As he moved, the carriage stopped steadily.

At the same time, Li Xiangyi showed a bewildered look on his face, as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him at all. He asked loudly, "What's wrong with you, young man? Why did you run to the middle of the road and block my way for no reason?"

Fang Duobing was not surprised to see Li Xiangyi who had successfully stopped the carriage. Instead, he looked him up and down with interest, and then shouted excitedly: "Master, I am Fang Duobing! Don't you remember me?"

When the other party introduced himself, Li Xiangyi pretended not to hear him and responded indifferently, "I don't know any Fang Duobing at all, and I have never accepted any apprentices. If you know what's good for you, get out of the way and don't delay my return home!"

However, Fang Duobing obviously didn't buy it. He jumped onto the shaft of the other side of the carriage in a familiar manner, and after sitting firmly, he continued, "Master, you can't cheat! I still have the little wooden sword you gave me, and you promised in person that when I grow up and come to find you, you will accept me as your disciple. You can't break your promise."

"Just sit down. How can you be sure that I am the one you are looking for?"

"Because you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen! And your voice and appearance have not changed over the years, so I can recognize you at a glance."

"is it?"

……

Along the way, Fang Duobing kept chirping like a sparrow, making Li Xiangyi very confused.

Now that he had finally returned home, he just wanted to have some peace and quiet for a while, so he glanced at Fang Duobing impatiently and said unhappily, "Alright, alright, shut up! I've been listening to you chattering since we left the city, aren't you tired and thirsty?"

Fang Duobing was startled at first, then he slapped his forehead as if he had suddenly realized something, and shouted, "Oh~ Now that you said that, I really feel a little thirsty."

Li Xiangyi parked the car steadily, and without even glancing at the people beside him, he walked towards the lakeside cottage. Before he got close, he caught a glimpse of Ji Xiao coming down from the second floor. He quickened his pace, took two steps at a time, took the tray from Ji Xiao, and said, "I have finished my shopping, and I can leave here at any time."

"Okay." Ji Xiao responded softly.

Then, she looked at Fang Duobing, who had followed Li Xiangyi into the house and was standing quietly by the side, and asked curiously: "Who is this little brother? Why did he come back with you? Do you know each other?" The expressions of the couple were exactly the same, and there was no trace of acting at all.

Seeing that Ji Xiao finally noticed him, Fang Duobing hurriedly stepped forward and introduced himself: "Master's wife, my name is Fang Duobing, and I am the apprentice of my master Li Xiangyi."

Ji Xiao looked puzzled and turned to look at Li Xiangyi.

At this time, Li Xiangyi, who had put the dishes away, rolled his eyes helplessly and explained to Ji Xiao: "It was this guy who stopped me just now and had to follow me shamelessly. And he never stopped talking all the way."

After saying this, he asked Fang Duobing again: "Aren't you thirsty?"

Fang Duobing was at a loss and answered subconsciously: "Of course I'm thirsty!"

Seeing this situation, what else can Ji Xiao say?

Helplessly, she could only signal the other party to sit down first, then she personally poured a glass of warm water and placed it on the table, and said softly: "Please sit down and drink some water to moisten your throat first."

Seeing this, Li Xiangyi also sat down beside Ji Xiao, picked up the teapot on the table, skillfully filled two cups with tea, and then gently pushed one of the cups in front of Ji Xiao.

Ji Xiao smiled and nodded in thanks, reached out to pick up the cup, took a sip, then slowly put the cup down and began to stare intently at Fang Duobing who was sitting opposite her.

The person in front of him had a fair face and delicate features, especially a pair of big, lively and bright eyes, which were even more eye-catching; coupled with an innocent smile and a slightly silly temperament... Ji Xiao couldn't help but sigh inwardly, what a sunny and handsome boy!

But at the same time, she also had a hint of doubt in her heart - what kind of mood did the parents of such a simple and lovely boy have to let him venture into the world alone?

Thinking of this, Ji Xiao couldn't help but secretly glance at Fang Duobing again, then lowered her voice, leaned close to Li Xiangyi's ear and whispered: "Xiangyi, look, this is really a complete naive boy! And he is also a cute boy with big watery eyes~ He looks quite handsome, but I don't know what his parents are thinking, to let him run around without any defense like this?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiangyi also turned around and looked at Fang Duobing, then nodded in agreement, expressing his agreement with Ji Xiao's opinion, muttering to himself: "Yes, that's true. Maybe he sneaked out without telling his family!"

Then Li Xiangyi looked at Ji Xiao in a low voice with a heartbroken look and asked, "Is he as good-looking as me? Do you dislike me less now that I'm older? Ah~ My heart hurts so much!"

"Yeah." Ji Xiao agreed deeply and nodded repeatedly.

Then Ji Xiao held Li Xiangyi's face with a strong desire to survive and said, "Well, he is still a child, just a little older than our son. I just admire him, yes, I admire him. And to me, you are the most beautiful."

After hearing the satisfactory answer, Li Xiangyi said proudly: "That's pretty good."
