Chapter 140 Where to Go and Where to Return
Chapter 140 Where to Go and Where to Return
In the dimly lit room, candlelight illuminated the entire world.
Murong Yao moved lightly and stood on the huge drum, dancing gracefully to the sound of the red dragon playing the drum.
As expected of the "Dance Demon," every movement is a perfect blend of power and beauty. The sound of her footsteps striking the drum, in sync with the music, is not at all jarring; on the contrary, it has an exciting and invigorating quality.
The captivating melody and rhythm, the dazzling dancers' steps, the sipped wine, and the beautiful women by your side—it all felt like a dream, intoxicating and unforgettable.
The banquet lasted a long time, and by the time it ended, the moon was high in the sky and cicadas were chirping everywhere.
The place where Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing were resting was not far apart, so Qing'er led the way, Fang Duobing walked behind, and Consort Xi helped the drunk Li Lianhua to go together.
"Qing'er, why aren't you leaving?"
Fang Duobing looked at Qing'er, who had stopped halfway, and asked her a question.
It's dark and deserted here, I wouldn't want it...
"Sister Xifei, may I speak with Doctor Li alone for a few minutes?"
Qing'er ignored Fang Duobing and walked to Li Lianhua and Xifei at the back.
"Qing'er, it's late. We can talk about it tomorrow. Besides, Doctor Li is already drunk."
"I don't want to wait until tomorrow. I'll just say a few words. You and Young Master Fang wait a moment ahead, we'll be right behind you."
"Miss Qing'er, Li Lianhua is in such a state, how can she talk to you? Did you two know each other before?"
"We've known each other for a long time. Sister Xifei, please, please?"
"Alright, hurry up and finish. I'll help Doctor Li to the pavilion next door first, and then I'll take Young Hero Fang to the side room. Come back as soon as you're done talking. Doctor Li, this way please."
"Thank you, Sister Xifei."
"Is there anything I can't hear, Li Lianhua? Say something!"
Fang was anxious and left the drunk Li Lianhua here. What if something happened to him, given his weak and ailing health?
"Fang Xiaobao, you go ahead. I'll just sit in the pavilion and get some fresh air to sober up."
"Okay, then, but don't forget to admire the moon."
"understood."
After Li Lianhua sat down, Chao Fang, who was ill, waved his hand.
"Young Master Fang, this way please. The room is not far from here."
Consort Xi led the way, walking in front.
"Oh, please."
Fang Duobing glanced back at Li Lianhua and Qing'er before leaving with Consort Xi.
"How is Dr. Li now? Would you like a hangover pill?"
As she spoke, Qing'er took out a pill from her pouch and prepared to hand it to Li Lianhua.
"No need, I'm fine."
Li Lianhua stopped Qing'er's actions.
"Miss Qing'er, did you specifically send those two away? Is there something you want to say to me?"
"Are you Li Lianhua, the owner of the Lotus Pavilion?"
Qing'er looked Li Lianhua up and down a few times, but unfortunately Li Lianhua was wearing a mask, so she couldn't see anything. Therefore, she asked cautiously.
"I am Li Lianhua. What brings you here, young lady?"
Those who have heard of Doctor Li's name know that he is Li Lianhua, the owner of Lotus Pavilion. Why does this girl need to confirm again? Is she afraid that someone might be impersonating him?
Qing'er was a little excited, her fingers tightly gripping the handkerchief, her tone anxious and apprehensive.
"Ten years ago, on the shore of the East China Sea, the Lotus Pavilion was built?"
"Yes."
Li Lianhua was somewhat puzzled. Who was this person? Someone who knew the details of Lotus Pavilion? Could this person, at this age, be...?
"It really is you, I've finally found you."
"What...what do you want with me?"
"Where has my aunt been all these years? I write to Li Lianhua every year, but I have never received a reply. I have been waiting for her reply all these years."
