Chapter 361 Lotus Tower 20
Li Xiangyi was stunned by Qiao Wanwan's action and didn't know how to react for a moment.

By the time he realized what was happening, he felt more and more that Qiao Wanwan was the stumbling block between him and A Xi.

This sister can no longer be kept. It’s bad enough that she doesn’t help him all day long, but what’s even more annoying is that she causes him trouble and becomes a stumbling block.

Looking at Qiao Wanwan who was drunk and stood up for her, Ling Xi smiled gently.

Li Xiangyi looked at the doting expression on Ling Xi's face, and the alarm in his heart instantly sounded.

He felt that if he didn't do something, Ah Xi would agree.

Li Xiangyi hurriedly explained: "Awan, don't talk nonsense, I went there for something, not to look for a woman! And I didn't go there alone, I have someone to testify that I really didn't do anything! Liu Rujing, come and help me testify!"

Liu Rujing, with a confused look on his face, was inexplicably pulled in front of Ling Xi, and Li Xiangyi was beside him, asking anxiously.

Liu Rujing nodded honestly and testified for Li Xiangyi in all seriousness, "Miss Xi, it's true. I saw it with my own eyes. After the master entered the house, he didn't even look at any of the girls and went straight to the courtesan's room!"

There was a strange silence at the table...

Li Xiangyi was so angry that his veins popped out. Liu Rujing, Liu Rujing, you are truly my subordinate!

Qiao Wanwan took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "Ah Xi, you heard it, he has gone to find the courtesan! If you don't know how to distinguish between good and bad men, do you think you can keep him for the New Year?"

Noticing that Ling Xi seemed to agree with Qiao Wanwan's words, Li Xiangyi became completely anxious and spoke before Qiao Wanwan spoke again: "A Xi, don't listen to them. I went to Jiangshanxiao because..."

Li Xiangyi paused here, gritted his teeth, and continued: "It's to find a birthday present for you."

Li Xiangyi originally wanted to give the gift to Ling Xi when they were alone together, but now he couldn't care less and immediately took out the jade pendant and handed it to Ling Xi.

Ling Xi took the thing Xiang Yi handed over, took a closer look, and found that it was also a jade pendant, white, moist and translucent.

More importantly, when Ling Xi held it in his hand, the jade pendant didn't feel cold, but very warm.

And the warmth continued to spread along Ling Xi's hand.

This is actually an extremely rare piece of top-grade warm jade, which is different from ordinary warm jade.

Ling Xi touched the warm jade and looked up at Li Xiangyi. She couldn't help but feel touched. She pursed her lips and asked, "What is this?"

Li Xiangyi smiled brightly and warmly: "Ah Xi, don't you have coldness in your body? I have been looking for this for a long time and spent a lot of effort to get it from Jiang Shanxiao's courtesan. With this, you will feel more comfortable."

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't touched. Ling Xi's old illness had basically no effect on her except for being a little afraid of the cold.

She herself didn't take this issue seriously, but she didn't expect that Xiangyi actually took it to heart.

Ling Xi raised her eyes slightly and smiled faintly: "Xiang Yi, thank you."

Li Xiangyi took the jade pendant and tied it around Ling Xi's waist carefully. He looked very serious when doing this. It didn't seem like he was tying a jade pendant, but rather like he was facing some complicated matter.

After tying the jade pendant on Ling Xi, Li Xiangyi looked into Ling Xi's bright eyes with a smile, and said in a gentle voice: "Happy birthday, Xi."

As the two looked at each other, pink bubbles seemed to appear beside them.

The people nearby saw this scene and turned their heads away at the same time, feeling very upset.

Qiao Wanwan didn't say anything. Of course, there was no doubt about Li Xiangyi's feelings for Axi.

They also knew a little about Axi's cold body problem, but no one took this problem to heart like Li Xiangyi did. After all, this old illness had no real impact on Axi.

The matter was over and no one took it to heart.

After sending the jade pendant away, Li Xiangyi picked up his Shao Shi sword, flew out of the drunk beauty's window, and landed on Jiang Shanxiao's roof.

He found a red silk that was several feet long from somewhere and tied it to the Young Master's sword.

In the night, under the lights of Yangzhou City, the red silk fluttered in the wind, particularly dazzling. Ling Xi leaned over to the window, looking at Li Xiangyi, who was standing on the high roof of Jiangshanxiao, holding a pot of wine in one hand and the Shaoshi Sword tied with red silk in the other, and had a guess in his mind.

After a while, Ling Xi slowly smiled. To Qiao Wanwan, that smile seemed particularly sweet.

The others were confused and had no idea what their leader was trying to do, so they all gathered around the window to see what Li Xiangyi was up to.

Soon, they knew what their leader was going to do.

Li Xiangyi's voice, which was wrapped in his inner strength, traveled far away, and people far away could hear his words.

"Everyone, I am Li Xiangyi, the Fourth Guardian. Today is my sweetheart's birthday. I hope that my Thirty-Six Drunken Swords can make her smile."

As soon as these words came out, the people below started to boo and clamored, "Great!"

People on the street stopped to watch, as if they had not expected to hear such a shocking thing. Li Xiangyi actually had a lover! I wonder which girl is so lucky!

Ling Xi was standing by the window and seemed to be able to see the expression on Li Xiangyi's face on the roof of Jiang Shanxiao's house.

With a warm smile on his face, his eyes must be gentle and affectionate.

Ling Xi seemed to see Li Xiangyi's eyes, which were telling her that this was the second birthday gift he wanted to give her.

The foot-long red silk on the young master's sword swayed with Li Xiangyi's movements, as if it had a life of its own and was extremely flexible.

The young man is wearing red clothes and a red headband, and he is full of vigor and vitality.

Under the bright moonlight, the sword dance is so graceful and elegant.

That day, Drunk as a Crazy, he danced with thirty-six swords all night long.

The entire city of Yangzhou was deserted.

From then on, the legend of Li Xiangyi dancing with red silk and sword was added to Yangzhou City.

And, decades later, it is still circulating.

On the second day, Ling Xi finally got Li Xiangyi, who had been dancing with swords all night, to go back and rest, and she returned to Baicaotang.

In the room of Baicao Hall, Ling Xi glanced at a place and then said, "Come out."

Soon, a secret guard appeared and knelt in front of Ling Xi.

"Your subordinate greets the princess."

"Get up." Ling Xi said.

The secret guard handed a box to Ling Xi, "This is a birthday gift that your majesty and your majesty prepared for the princess, and I was asked to give it to the princess."

Ling Xi opened the box and saw what was inside, and a warm feeling ran through her heart.

"Does the Emperor and the Empress have anything else to say?"

Ling Xi closed the box and asked the silent secret guard.

Secret Guard: "His Majesty hopes that the princess will return to the palace soon. He said that he is tired of reviewing memorials."

Ling Xi: “Got it.”

The secret guard handed Ling Xi another booklet and said, "Princess, this is what you ordered me to investigate about Shan Gudao. I will live up to your expectations and all the information I have investigated is here."

Ling Xi waved his hand: "Go down and have a good rest."
