Chapter 272 Cruise Ship
Pei Yu came back to his senses and met Shen Li's dangerous eyes. His sharp intuition told him that Ali must have misunderstood his distraction just now.
He retracted his gaze and said calmly, "Ali, what do you think of my carving skills?"
"Well, not bad!"
Looking at the bracelet on her wrist, she realized that this was what she was thinking about. But then again, she didn't know if Pei Yu had a white moonlight, a childhood sweetheart, or anything like that.
If there is, it will be troublesome, so it is better to ask clearly.
"Pei Yu, do you have a childhood sweetheart or a good friend?"
Pei Yu had never thought that she would ask this question. He was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. This was a sign that Ali cared about him.
"No Qingmei, I have always kept my distance from women, except you, of course."
While explaining, don't forget to express your feelings.
Shen Li was satisfied. Even if there was, she had not seen the two of them get along with each other in person yet. Apart from being more sober towards Pei Yu, nothing would happen.
Moreover, they grew up together as childhood sweethearts. If there really was something going on between them, it probably wouldn't be my turn.
But since he said no, I'll just believe him.
He took out a fruit from his arms and said, "Here, I have been growing this for a long time. I am giving it to you as a reward."
This is really true. Ever since the Daohua Village Committee's house was built, Shen Li planted two spiritual fruit trees in her own yard. Perhaps because of the soil and air, they have never borne fruit.
Only a few fruits were produced this year, and they were not as big as those in the space. Shen Li ate one, and it contained a faint spiritual energy, but it was better than nothing.
Pei Yu took it, wiped it clean with a handkerchief carefully, then brought it to his mouth and took a bite. After eating it, he looked at Shen Li with bright eyes. After eating the fruit, his abdomen felt hot and his internal strength increased a little bit.
Just this small fruit can actually increase internal strength. He had never thought that there was such a good thing.
"This……"
"I found this by chance in the mountains. After I moved it back, it didn't produce much fruit."
"That's a shame."
Pei Yu did not doubt what she said, but just felt a little regretful.
Soon, the carriage stopped at the dock. The dock was crowded with people coming and going, and the sounds of shouting and hawking were endless.
There is a large ship docked at the dock. The hull is brand new and the entire ship is luxurious. It just stands there at the dock, attracting a lot of attention.
Shen Li saw it as soon as he got off the carriage, and Pei Yu took him to the boat.
There were several boatmen, a dozen guards and several maids on the deck of the ship. When they saw the two people coming up, they all bowed their heads and greeted them.
The boat was very spacious, with two floors above the deck. The decoration was exquisite and luxurious, which did not seem like something Pei Yu would like.
"Where did you get this boat from?"
Pei Yu took her hand and walked inside. There were too many people outside just now and he was afraid that someone would recognize her, which would be bad for her reputation. Now everyone on the boat was his, so it wouldn't get out.
"You've been busy for so long, you should get some compensation, right?"
Shen Li understood that this was what he had obtained during the house search, but he had not handed it over.
"Is it okay for you to do this?"
Pei Yu shook his head. "I didn't come here for any errands. He arranged so many errands for me without any reason. He should give me some benefits, right?"
"Well, you got more than just this benefit, didn't you?"
"They are all what we deserve. Compared with what we sent to the capital, it is just a drop in the bucket."
Pei Yu took Shen Li's hand and looked at the ship. Then they went back to the deck. The ship had been away from the shore for a while. Because it was winter, there was still some fog on the river.
After sailing for a while, someone started to cast a net to catch fish. There was also someone fishing nearby. Shen Li was itching to try her luck. Pei Yu saw this and asked someone to bring two fishing rods. The two of them sat on the deck and started fishing.
As the breeze blew by, the hems of their clothes, one black and one red, intertwined, looking extremely harmonious.
Because we wanted to fish, the boat stopped and we waited for a long time before a fish bit our ears.
Shen Li slid for a while, and when she was exhausted from eating the fish, she pulled it up.
"Ayu, look, it's shad!"
Shad has always been known as a treasure from the waters of the south of the Yangtze River. It is very delicious. However, due to the development of industry in later generations, it has become extinct.
But it is different here. There is no pollution here, which is very suitable for the growth and reproduction of shad.
Seeing that she was happy, Pei Yu suggested: "Ali, why don't we have a competition, how about a half-hour limit?"
Shen Li tilted her head to look at him: "What's the prize?"
"what do you want?"
"Well, I haven't thought of it yet."
Pei Yu suggested: "The loser will agree to one request from the winner."
"Okay."
Shen Li had the fish in the bucket taken away. "For the sake of fairness, my fish won't count. Let's start now."
"it is good."
Although it was a competition, the two would chat from time to time. Pei Yu even took time out to make tea. He looked so relaxed and at ease that it didn't seem like he was competing at all.
The fishing rods of the two people would move from time to time. Half an hour later, Shen Li caught seven fish and Pei Yu caught ten fish.
"Ali, I won."
Shen Li was happy today. She waved her hand and said, "Tell me what you want."
Pei Yu pulled her into the cabin. After enjoying the river breeze for half an hour, although they were not afraid of the cold, her hands had already grown cold.
"Remember it first and we'll talk about it later."
"Row."
Shen Li glanced at him from the side, feeling that he was up to no good.
After looking around, she didn't understand why he brought her here. "Your cabin looks like a banquet hall."
"Originally, Ah Li, do you want to see some singing and dancing?"
"Ok?"
Pei Yu put down the orange in his hand and said seriously: "It was originally kept on this boat. I thought you might like to see it, so I didn't disperse it."
"Then let's see."
Pei Yu gave a look and Tian Qing beside him knew what was going on, and he immediately went downstairs to have people get ready.
Not long after, a maid came in carrying fruits and pastries.
Shen Li ate an orange. She wasn't very hungry, so she didn't eat anything else. Soon, a dancer in cool clothes came up.
She walked in wearing a red dance costume, twisting her slender waist.
She had a charming and graceful figure, with a faint smile on her face, but not flattering. Perhaps she knew that there was someone in the room, so she did not have an expression of seduction.
The musicians behind him also walked in, bowed, and found their respective seats.
Tianqing glanced at the two people sitting in the main seat, understood, and signaled them to start.
Shen Li watched with great fascination the wonderful music accompanied by the graceful dance moves. No wonder those dignitaries all had the habit of keeping dancers!
This person is beautiful and a great dancer. It's a real visual feast!
Shen Li was amazed at the performance, especially the beautiful lead dancer, who had a slender figure and a soft waist. She twisted her body to the beautiful music. Every scene seemed to be carefully carved and was very pleasing to the eyes.
Tianqing looked up and was standing below. When he saw this scene, he was speechless for a moment. Was this the wrong way around?
