Ren Yingying was hesitating, as if it was difficult to speak.
Yang Lianting noticed her troubles, smiled and comforted: "Yingying, I don't really want you to make a decision, it's just a joke. As your eldest brother, how can I not care about your father's safety?"
Ren Yingying blushed when she heard this. She glared at Yang Lianting, turned around, and seemed relieved.
However, deep down, she was a little disappointed.
Seeing Ren Yingying's cute look, Yang Lianting said with a smile: "Sister, don't be angry, brother will never joke again."
Ren Yingying turned sideways, faced Yang Lianting, and said with firm eyes: "Brother Yang, I have seriously considered your proposal. You helped me, and now you are still the head of the Huashan Sect, and you are so handsome. If you Don’t dislike me, I am willing to stay by your side to repay you after rescuing my father.”
Yang Lianting looked at her beautiful face and was deeply moved. He held her hand gently: "Yingying, I really like you. But I'm afraid of being rejected, so I test you in another way. As long as you are willing, I will treat you well all my life."
Ren Yingying nodded shyly and looked up at Yang Lianting: "Brother Yang, I believe you."
The two looked at each other affectionately, completely ignoring Lan Fenghuang next to them. Lan Fenghuang helplessly held his forehead: "How long will you continue to be tired? I'm leaving and I won't disturb you anymore."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Lan Fenghuang angrily mounted Yang Lianting's horse, which hurt and galloped away.
Yang Lianting was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, Lan Fenghuang had disappeared around the corner of the woods.
Ren Yingying chuckled, "Brother Yang, are you worried about your horse?"
"How could it be?" Yang Lianting chuckled.
"It's just a horse, not worth mentioning. It's just Miss Lan..." "Brother Yang, don't worry."
Ren Yingying smiled, "Phoenix and I are like sisters, and we have the brightest personalities. Brother Yang doesn't have to worry about it."
"How could I care?" Yang Lianting said with a smile, "The prison girl has a bright personality, far better than those who are scheming."
"Yes." Ren Yingying nodded and looked at the sky, "Brother Yang, let's set off. I know Phoenix has returned to Luoyang."
Yang Lianting nodded: "I will listen to sister Yingying in everything."
Along the way, Yang Lianting held Ren Yingying's hand tightly. She tried several times to withdraw it, but failed. Although he was not used to such closeness, there was a hint of sweetness in his heart.
On the way down the mountain, Yang Lianting told Ren Yingying about the place where "Ren Woxing" was imprisoned.
"If Brother Yang hadn't told me, I might never have found my father in my life. He was imprisoned in the dungeon of Meizhuang!" Ren Yingying looked at Yang Lianting with gratitude.
Yang Lianting patted her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, Senior Ren will be safe and sound. Didn't Sang Sanniang and the others say that Dongfang Bubai gave an order to see me as if he were in person? Let's go to Meizhuang and try."
Having said this, he paused and looked at Ren Yingying with a smile in his eyes. Ren Yingying felt a little uncomfortable and pretended to be angry: "Brother Yang, why do you look at me like this?"
Yang Lianting laughed: "Sister Yingying, Senior Ren is my future father-in-law. If I don't save him, how can you spare me?"
Ren Yingying was speechless for a moment, and her embarrassed look made Yang Lianting smile even more cheerfully.
In the dim light of dusk, the two arrived at the outskirts of Luoyang City.
Ren Yingying pointed to Green Bamboo Lane ahead with a cheerful smile and said, "Brother Yang, we are almost there. Look, Green Bamboo Lane is ahead."
Yang Lianting looked up and saw Green Bamboo Alley, a deep and narrow alley located in the east part of Luoyang City.
Walking to the end of the alley, a green bamboo forest appeared in front of you. The breeze blew and the bamboo leaves swayed gently, looking elegant and natural. Five small houses can be vaguely seen in the bamboo forest, with a unique layout, two on the left and three on the right, all made of thick bamboo.
Entering the house, you will find bamboo tables, chairs, and couches. There is also an ink bamboo painting hanging on the wall. The brushwork is bold and the ink is dripping, giving people a sense of vitality. There is a Yao Qin and a Dong Xiao on the table, and the whole alley is filled with a fresh breath, which seems to be a world away from the hustle and bustle of Luoyang City outside.
As soon as he entered the house, an old woman came forward. She looked at Yang Lianting carefully, and then gave Ren Yingying a meaningful look.
Ren Yingying blushed with embarrassment and did not dare to look at her.
The old woman said with a smile: "Fenghuang has already told me that thanks to the help of Master Yang this time, otherwise they don't know what would have happened. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Master Yang. Please invite Master Yang to sit in the room, I have already prepared the food and wine, and would like to express my gratitude."
Yang Lianting was a little surprised. He originally thought that the green bamboo man was a man, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be an old woman.
He saluted the old woman and said, "Thank you, grandma."
The old woman bent down and returned the greeting: "Master Yang, you are welcome. Please come with me."
When they arrived at the bamboo house where they were eating, Lan Fenghuang had been waiting for a long time. Seeing them coming back, Lan Fenghuang rolled his eyes: "Oh... I thought you wouldn't come back."
Seeing Ren Yingying's shy look, Supervisor Phoenix shook his head helplessly: "When you come back, eat as soon as possible. If you don't come back, my mother-in-law won't let me eat alone. I will starve to death."
After saying that, she stared at them both dissatisfied with her big eyes.
The old woman invited everyone to enjoy dinner together.
Yang Lianting noticed that Lan Fenghuang seemed a little unhappy, so he specially put a chicken drumstick in her bowl.
Lan Fenghuang was stunned for a moment, then continued to eat with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.
After the meal, it was getting late, so the old woman took Yang Lianting to the bamboo house on the left to rest.
On the bamboo bed, Yang Lianting tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. I vaguely heard the sound of the piano echoing in my ears, and my heartstrings were gently plucked - could that be the sound of Ren Yingying's piano?
Yang Lianting couldn't help but put on her coat, stepped out of the bamboo house, and looked for the source of the sound of the piano under the moonlight.
The sound of the piano was like a trickling stream or like a continuous drizzle, causing ripples in Yang Lianting's heart.
He hurriedly looked for the sound of the piano.
But I met Lan Fenghuang halfway, and saw her looking up at the bright moon in the sky. The moonlight shone through the bamboo leaves on her pretty face, giving her a hazy beauty!
Yang Lianting looked at Lan Fenghuang carefully, her face was as delicate and beautiful as a morning flower. She is dressed in gorgeous Miao costumes, as colorful as a rainbow. The top is exquisitely embroidered, delicate and vivid.
The silver hairpin shone with dazzling light, and the gems inlaid in it were as bright as stars. The bead curtain hanging down between her hair swayed gently with her steps, making a crisp sound.
Lan Fenghuang was holding a wine bag in his hand. He was obviously drinking alone here. What was on his mind?
Seeing Lan Fenghuang drinking alone here, Yang Lianting was a little worried about her: "Miss Lan... too much alcohol is harmful to your health, and the weather is so cold now, so you should go back and rest early!"
Lan Fenghuang turned her head to look at him, with some dissatisfaction with him in her eyes: "You don't have to worry about my affairs. You can go find your sister Yingying."
Yang Lianting had no choice but to take off her clothes and put them on Lan Fenghuang: "It's better to go back and rest early! For a girl, this is not good for your health!"
Seeing that Prisoner Fenghuang was unmoved, he stood up and left, just as Lan Fenghuang said, to find his sister Yingying.
After Yang Lianting left, Supervisor Fenghuang looked at the direction he left with a smile on his lips and murmured to himself: "Yang Lianting, you are the one who provoked me, then you should be responsible to the end. Our Miao girls dare to love and dare to Hate, now that I have identified you, don’t even think about getting rid of me..."
