deadly mantra

Chapter 278 The opening remarks of the chance encounter
The bustling streets were bustling with people.

A low-key carriage drove by slowly.

The man driving the horse is tall and has sharp eyes. He is always vigilantly observing his surroundings.

The man turned his head and asked respectfully into the carriage:
"Your Highness, where will we go next?"

There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

After a while, a mellow low voice sounded:

"Where to..."

The people sitting inside seemed worried and fell silent again.

"Your Highness?" After waiting for a long time, without waiting for a reply, the man spoke again.

"Alas..." A slightly irritable sigh floated out of the carriage.

After a while, the car window was pushed open.

The blue curtains fluttered gently in the wind, passing over Li Mubai's angular cheeks.

He watched boredly as passers-by moved past the car like running water.

Suddenly, a beautiful figure broke into his field of vision.

Li Mubai's troubled expression changed instantly, his eyes brightened, and his high-pitched voice was full of surprise:

"Miss Ji?!"

Ji Fanyin was standing on the side of the road, staring at the candied haws in the child's hand with greedy eyes and feeling worried. Suddenly she heard someone calling her, and she turned around following the sound.

The bright sunshine, with refreshing warmth, shone on her side.

The crimson dress made her look like a blazing fire.

And the smile that burst out of her eyes for a moment was like a soft cloud, slamming into Li Mubai's heart fiercely.

Li Mubai's heart pounded, and his phoenix eyes slowly opened in surprise.

"Li Mubai?" Ji Fanyin walked quickly to the carriage and smiled: "I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing recently? Have you eaten?"

Li Mubai was a little flattered:
"You ask...how am I doing lately?"

Ji Fanyin smiled brightly:
"Yes, don't people who meet again after a long separation always use these words as their opening remarks?"

Li Mubai's smart mind became a little sluggish at this time:
"Opening...prologue?"

Ji Fanyin nodded and said bluntly:
"Now~ I've said the opening remarks, so I'll go straight to the point. Li Mubai, do you have any broken silver? I'm used to bringing gold bars when I go out, but today I just ran into a problem. I don't want gold bars, but broken silver."

She turned around and pointed to the man selling candied haws on the street corner: "I want a bunch of candied haws."

stunned.

stunned for a long time.

Li Mubai let out a sigh and smiled, smiling more happily than ever before.

The unpleasantness of the past few days miraculously disappeared due to her appearance.

Li Mubai was in a good mood and invited Ji Fanyin to get on the carriage.

He opened the curtain, ordered his entourage to buy candied haws, and handed it to Ji Fanyin himself, with a soft smile on his face and eyes, and asked:

"Where's Miss Ji? You're doing well lately. Have you eaten?"

Ji Fanyin sat next to him and shook his head.

Li Mubai suppressed the excitement in his heart, his eyes brightened again, and asked:

"Above the clouds?"

Ji Fanyin shook her head instinctively:

"If I don't go, I'll get tired of eating it every day."

Li Mubai's face froze slightly.

He was so happy just now that he actually forgot about Shui Qingchen's existence.

That's right, she lives in Qingyi Garden.

No matter how much you like the food there, you will definitely get tired of it if you eat too much.

Li Mubai thought for a while and suggested:

"I know there is a farmhouse outside the city. The food is not as exquisite as Yun Shangduan's, but the ingredients used are all wild vegetables that he personally serves and eats. It's quite interesting to eat them once in a while. Do you want to go?"

Ji Fanyin took a big mouthful of candied haws and spoke vaguely:
"also."

Li Mubai raised his voice happily:

"Liang Chao, go back to the farmhouse."

"Yes! Your Highness." Liang Chao tightened the reins and drove the carriage towards the outside of the city.
