"Sir, we're here." After rowing the boat to the end, the woman slowly put down the paddle and returned to the cabin.

Zhang Qingjiu was still lying on the boat in the same position as before, and closed his eyes at some point. Murong Chunlai kept drinking, looking where he didn't know where to go.

The woman waited for a long time, then suddenly sat down next to Zhang Qingjiu and stretched out her hands.

"What are you doing?" Murong Chunlai's eyes turned cold, and he moved as fast as lightning. When the woman's fingers were still an inch away from Zhang Qingjiu, he squeezed her wrist tightly.

The sudden change made the woman turn pale in fright. She looked at the overturned wine glass on the table and was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a long time. "I...I just wanted to press her temples to see what this young man looked like."

, seems very tired."

Press? Murong Chunlai frowned and then came to his senses. His behavior was a bit extreme, but if these hands moved around Zhang Qingjiu's face...

Thinking of certain scenes, I suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Shaking the woman's hand away, Murong Chunlai narrowed his eyes and said, "No need."

"Yes, yes..." The woman took a deep breath and carefully stepped aside.

"Why are you so cruel to others?" At this moment, Zhang Qingjiu, who was lying down, suddenly opened his eyes and looked directly at Murong Chunlai, "She doesn't have any bad intentions."

"If she had bad intentions, you would be a dead body now." Murong Chunlai glared at Zhang Qingjiu fiercely.

This was the first time he spoke to the woman in front of him in such a serious tone.

Zhang Qingjiu curled his lips and sat up straight, "If I were a dead body, I don't know whether it's you or me who can't do it."

"You!" Murong Chunlai took a breath.

"What? Did I say something wrong?" Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows, but ignored him and turned to look at the woman, "Hey, you haven't told me what your name is yet."

"My name is Lan Miao." The woman lowered her head and said.

"Lan Miao." Zhang Qingjiu nodded and sighed quietly, "Lan Miao, let me give you a suggestion."

"Please give me some advice, Master." Lan Miao lowered her head even further.

"I suggest you not to think about how to sink this ship." Looking at the woman's suddenly raised eyes, Zhang Qingjiu smiled, "Just wait patiently for two more days, and I'll make sure your wishes come true."

A flash of panic flashed in the woman's eyes, her mouth trembled for a while, and she turned away, "Mr. Master, I can't understand what you are saying."

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, just understand in your heart." Zhang Qingjiu nodded, "Of course, you can also choose to continue with your previous plan, but as you can see, with him around, your plan may not succeed."

After looking at Murong Chunlai and then at Zhang Qingjiu, the woman gritted her teeth and stood up suddenly, "Young master, it's getting late. I'll send you back home."

Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows and lay down again, "Okay."

The woman paddled again, and this time the boat was much faster than before.

Murong Chunlai rolled his eyes at Zhang Qingjiu and said, "I'm sick."

Zhang Qingjiu said without blinking: "Take medicine."

The small boat's body was light and it quickly reached the shore. When the bow hit the shore, the boat's body swayed slightly.

The woman's body stiffened for a moment, and she immediately got ashore. Fu Shen said, "You two gentlemen, we have arrived at the shore. Please get off the boat."

"Yeah." Zhang Qingjiu stood up, patted his sleeves, turned to Murong Chun, who looked awkward, and said, "Let's go? Why are you still standing?"

The corner of Murong Chunlai's mouth moved, but he hesitated to speak. Finally, he snorted coldly, walked around Zhang Qingjiu, and walked in front of her.

The group of three people walked towards Yixiang Building again. Just when they stepped into the backyard, the small boat behind them suddenly sank. Half of the hull fell into the river, and then sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Someone around saw this scene and immediately caused a commotion.

Inside, I was so shocked that I couldn't speak for a long time. I quickly asked the people around me: "Is there anyone inside?"

"No, I just saw the owner of the boat returning with his guest." Another person replied.

"My dear... if we drive into the river, we will sink at such a speed that we will never come back."

"you do not say……"

…

Back indoors, Lan Miao took the two of them to a small room, asked them to sit down, turned around, opened a locked cabinet, and took out a small clay pot from inside.

Zhang Qingjiu looked at her actions and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

A quarter of an hour later, Lan Miao came over with a pot of tea. For a while, the fragrance of tea was lingering and refreshing, which actually diluted a lot of the tea.

"Master, please have some tea." Lan Miao made some wine for Zhang Qing.

At this moment, there was a burst of urgent footsteps at the door.

"Girl, no, no, no, no, no, our ship has sunk!" The little girl with two crotch buns rushed in with a panicked look on her face.

Lan Miao was giving Murong Chunlai a hand that was making tea, and the tea suddenly spread all over the table.

"I'm sorry, sir, I'm so rude." Lan Miao seemed frightened. She put down the tea and tried to wipe it with her own hands.

Zhang Qingjiu stretched out his hand to hold her, "Don't worry, he won't drink."

Murong Chunlai narrowed his eyes and was about to speak, but the girl who came in hastily said: "Girl, mother asked you to come over and have a look."

Lan Miao glared at her and shook her head nervously, "Didn't you see that I still have guests?"

Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows, "If you're in a hurry, just go and take a look at the ship."

"No, I'm not in a hurry." Lan Miao shook her head and sat down carefully.

Zhang Qingjiu glanced at her, nodded, picked up the tea and took a sip, "I don't drink your tea for nothing, why not, how about we make an exchange?"

"What, what exchange?" Lan Miao's eyes flashed.

"The two of us will not pay the money today. We will come back in two days. If what you are thinking about comes true in these two days, the money will be waived. If not, how about we pay again?" Zhang Qingjiu

Put the tea cup down slowly.

When the girl heard this, she was stunned and gasped, "You two are so shameless. How can you have tea, drink, and go on a cruise without paying for it? You also made it seem like not paying is a gift from you! Besides, in my girl's heart,

What is there for you to talk nonsense about?"

"Don't be rude!" Lan Miao took a breath, turned around and glared at the girl, then turned to Zhang Qingjiu and said, "Master, what do you mean?"

Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows and said, "You are a smart man, please tell me whether you agree or not."

Lan Miao took a deep look, lowered her eyes and said, "I agree, Nujia."

Zhang Qingjiu nodded, "Well, you can go about your business. It's time for us to go back. By the way, I forgot to tell you. My name is here."

Pointing to the water stain next to the tea cup on the table, Zhang Qingjiu stood up and walked outside.

The girl's angry voice came from behind, "Girl, how can there be such a person? He who wants you to give money after eating and drinking is really a scoundrel!"

"Don't be rude." Looking at the figure outside the door, Lan Miao took a deep breath and looked at the marks on the table, "He saved my life..."

On the carriage back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Murong Chunlai looked at the vast night and suddenly turned his head, "When did you know there was something wrong with the ship?"

He never noticed that the ship had been tampered with.

"Very early." Zhang Qingjiu's lazy voice came from inside.

"Since you know she wants to harm you, why do you still save her? You're full?" Murong Chunlai frowned.

"She didn't mean to harm me." Zhang Qingjiu snorted, "She just had no other choice."

Murong Chunlai's brows darkened a little, "Then what are you planning?"

Zhang Qingjiu yawned, "Fishing."
