Chapter 290 The Nobleman in Black Robes
Yes, we all are.
Li Shuchen: "Come on, let's arrange some flowers, and then we'll swing together."
"it is good"
In Ye Bingli's hands, the swing chair gradually transforms into a work of art, lively and vibrant, exuding the fragrance of flowers.
"This is practically every girl's dream chair, Bingli, please sit down."
After Li Shuchen finished speaking, he took a step and sat down on one side of the swing. Seeing this, Ye Bingli sat down on the other side of the swing.
"Bingli, lift your feet up, I'll swing on the swing, swing high, let's fly high!"
"it is good"
Ye Bingli lightly lifted her foot, and Li Shuchen pushed off the ground with both feet, causing the swing to swing backward and then forward. When it returned to parallel with the ground, Li Shuchen pushed off again, making the swing swing even higher, and so on.
"Shuchen, we're flying so high!"
The clear and melodious sound entered Li Shuchen's ears, making him feel as if he were about to become an immortal.
"We can fly even higher, watch me!"
Li Shuchen mustered all his strength, pushing off with both feet and legs simultaneously.
Whoosh! The swing swung even higher.
Suddenly lifted several meters off the ground, Ye Bingli nervously gripped the rope with one hand and grabbed Li Shuchen's arm with the other.
"Shu Chen, are we going to fall?"
"Fly with confidence, I will definitely protect you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Bingli immediately relaxed, no longer afraid of falling, and simply let herself fly.
"When Changning arrives tomorrow, let's capture our most beautiful moments under this big tree, by the swing."
After Li Shuchen finished speaking, he turned to look at Ye Bingli, who returned his gaze and smiled.
"it is good"
"I'm working myself to death down here, while you're having a blast flying around up there."
Cheng Zhian stood to the side, holding a small porcelain bottle, looking at Li Shuchen, who was grinning broadly, with a resentful expression.
Li Shuchen glanced down and immediately noticed the small porcelain bottle in Cheng Zhian's hand, asking, "How many milliliters of rose essential oil were extracted?"
Three milliliters
Li Shuchen: "The extractor is indeed more powerful than before, impressive, Young Master Cheng."
Cheng Zhian: "Acceptable"
"Don't be modest. Since you did so well, I'll let you play on the swing."
Li Shuchen and Ye Bingli stopped swinging, got up and walked to the side.
"Please, Young Master Cheng."
Cheng Zhian smiled and sat on the swing: "The swings you made give me the most exciting feeling."
Li Shuchen tilted his head and asked, "What impulse?"
Cheng Zhian said calmly, "Buy it and take it home."
Li Shuchen raised an eyebrow and asked, "One thousand taels of silver, do you want it?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Zhian glanced at Li Shuchen, then stopped talking and began to swing on his own.
His lips curved into a gentle smile, his expression reserved and tender. Swaying gracefully with the swing, his androgynous face always gave Li Shuchen the illusion that she saw a girl's deep and subtle love for the swing.
Thinking of this, Li Shuchen shuddered and tried to distract himself.
"Where's Yuying? Isn't she with you? Why hasn't she come over?"
Cheng Zhi'an: "Didn't you say you were going to go fishing after lunch? General Liang went to change his clothes."
Li Shuchen couldn't understand what he was saying. He was just slacking off, why did he need to change his clothes?
Ye Bingli tugged at the dazed Li Shuchen: "Shuchen, lunch seems to be ready."
"Lunch is ready, let's go eat!"
Li Shuchen pulled Ye Bingli back into the house, and when he looked up, he saw Liang Yuying, dressed in a handsome black outfit, sitting at the table.
Li Shuchen had never seen this garment before; it was clearly newly made, a blend of black and red with subtle gold thread patterns, exuding an air of noble prestige and aloofness—a top-tier example of black clothing.
"Yuying, you look beautiful in this outfit."
Li Shuchen couldn't resist touching it, constantly uttering exclamations of admiration.
With her ears turning red, Liang Yuying asked, "Does Shu Chen like it?"
"I like it, I like it!"
Liang Yuying smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this.
Li Shuchen: "But we're going to go fishing later, it would be such a waste if you got this dirty."
Liang Yuying smiled faintly: "It's alright, we can wash it again if it gets dirty."
Ye Bingli kept her head down, drinking her tea. She understood everything, but said nothing.
"You've all arrived."
Gu Ziying walked into the room with a smile and sat down at the table: "Yuying's new clothes are very dazzling. The one you wore this morning is dirty. I'll have someone clean it for you."
Upon hearing this, Liang Yuying replied, "Thank you, Ziying, I can wash myself."
Gu Ziying didn't think about anything else and lowered her head to begin eating.
Li Shuchen also started eating.
After lunch
Li Shuchen found several large wooden barrels, threw them onto the carriage, walked up to Li Wanbai, and patted its head.
"Wanbai, shall I take you to go fishing?"
Catching fish? It can't catch any fish anyway. The owner probably wants to do the hard work himself, but it won't do that.
Then he tilted his head to the side.
"Sigh~"
Not going
Li Shuchen's hand froze in mid-air: "Hey, Wanbai, you're being disobedient again. Come with me to catch fish, and I'll treat you to a whole roasted lamb."
Li Wanbai rolled its big, round eyes in thought. Roasted whole lamb? It smelled the delicious roasted whole lamb from yesterday, but unfortunately it didn't get to eat any.
"How about it? Want to go fishing?"
Li Shuchen continued to coax
Li Wanbai hesitated whether to nod.
"Shu Chen, let's go."
Liang Yuying led Hongying over
"You've brought Hongying with you; that's enough. Let's go."
After Li Shuchen finished speaking, he released Li Wanbai's rope, took Hongying's hand, and headed towards the entrance of the village.
Li Wanbai panicked when she saw this.
"Hehehe~"
He hurriedly called out to Li Shuchen, his face full of flattery.
Li Shuchen turned around and said, "Hey, Wanbai, are you going?"
Li Wanbai hurriedly lowered her head, "Yes, yes, I want to go..."
Li Shuchen blinked: "But there's no whole roasted lamb for you to eat."
Li Wanbai was stunned after hearing this. A liar! A complete liar!
Li Shuchen turned around and continued walking out, but after taking only two steps, he heard a call behind him again and turned back once more.
"you want to go?"
Li Wanbai nodded emphatically and glanced at the red figure.
Li Shuchen strode up to Li Wanbai and slapped the horse's back: "I told you to go, but you wouldn't. Now that Hongying is gone, you're following her. Do you even care about me anymore? I bet you only care about Hongying."
Li Wanbai lowered her horse in shame and chuckled twice.
Li Shuchen sighed helplessly, "Girls can't stay in school forever."
He loosened Li Wanbai's rope and led it to stand side by side with Hongying.
Liang Yuying gently stroked Wanbai's horse's head: "Wanbai really likes Hongying."
After speaking, he looked at Li Shuchen.
Li Shuchen nodded: "That's right, it won't even listen to me anymore, bad horse."
After saying that, he slapped Li Wanbai's bottom again.
Liang Yuying pursed her lips upon hearing this; that wasn't what she meant to say.
Li Shuchen stepped onto the carriage: "Let's hurry, it's a bit far."
Liang Yuying swallowed back what she wanted to say and replied, "Okay."
The two men and two horses quickly arrived at the riverbank.
Li Shuchen jumped off the carriage and looked around at the wide river.
The river flows gently from north to south, its current not very rapid, but the water is green, indicating it is quite deep.
Be careful when catching fish later.
Li Shuchen lowered his head and reached down to undo his belt, beginning to undress. Soon he was down to only his undergarments.
Liang Yuying stood blankly behind Li Shuchen, motionless, her face flushed as if she had a fever of 40 degrees Celsius, her eyes unsure of where to look.
Why is Shu Chen dressed like this?
