Chapter 285: Chaos at the Wine Shop

Xue Yan’s pretending was simply unbearable to watch.

Xue Yan quickly looked around.

Seeing no one nearby, he finally let out a breath of relief and hurriedly tried to cover Bai He’s mouth, telling him not to speak nonsense.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Do you think I know nothing? Or are you thinking that I am sitting here alone and you have developed some other intentions?"

Bai He’s words were exactly what Xue Yan was thinking in his heart.

Bai He had been sitting here alone for a long time.

Although he still carried a bit of youthful innocence in his appearance, he was already graceful and poised.

Xue Yan had indeed developed some intentions, but he never expected that his thoughts would be seen through so easily by him.

Moreover, he seemed to know far more than he had imagined.

"Speak softer. What nonsense are you talking about? Do you want everyone to know before you are satisfied?"

"You are not afraid of being embarrassed yourself, so why should I help you hide it? And you even tried to gain my sympathy. How ridiculous."

"You..."

Xue Yan had seen countless people before, man and woman, but he had never seen someone like Bai He.

He looked quite pleasant, but the words he spoke were enough to make anyone angry.

He was so furious that he could not even say a complete sentence.

"Master..."

After hearing Ye Shiyuan’s voice, Bai He’s expression immediately changed.

He waved at him.

"Shiyuan, where did you go?"

"Master, who is he?"

Ye Shiyuan did not answer his question.

Instead, he looked warily at the man standing beside Bai He.

Since he dressed in red, he should be today’s groom.

"You are Ye Shiyuan’s master?" Although Ye Shiyuan did not recognize Xue Yan, Xue Yan recognized Ye Shiyuan. "You, you are that elder from the Lingguang Sect."

The boy he had unintentionally taken an interest in was actually an elder of the Lingguang Sect.

Xue Yan only wanted to quietly slip away and pretend nothing had happened.

"Yes."

"You, why do you look like this?"

Bai He lowered his head and examined himself, not understanding what he meant.

What did he mean by like this?

Was there anything strange about his appearance?

"What is wrong with me?"

"You... look like a child."

Bai He: ...

"Master, do not listen to his nonsense. Let us go."

Ye Shiyuan gave Xue Yan a cold glance and pulled Bai He away, intending to leave.

Xue Yan felt Ye Shiyuan’s gaze and did not dare to move at all.

It was too terrifying.

Ye Shiyuan?

Back then, when he was in Spirit Pagoda, he had personally seen how fierce and ruthless Ye Shiyuan could be.

He was nothing like how he appeared now.

That boy could see through his attempt to pretend, yet he could not see that Ye Shiyuan was even more deceptive than him.

"Shiyuan, I looked around everywhere but could not find you and Xiao Feng."

"Junior brother went off to drink with someone."

Bai He was once again speechless.

Xu Feng did not seem like someone who knew how to drink alcohol.

He actually went to drink?

"Where is he? Then why did you not follow him?"

When Bai He hurried over, they arrived at a wine shop.

As they got closer, they could already smell the strong aroma of alcohol.

Bai He even suspected that people with poor tolerance might get drunk just by walking near it.

He only saw that the door was open.

Inside, there were many people, and from time to time, cheerful voices could be heard.

Some of them were still relatively clear-headed, while others were already swaying and completely out of control.

When Bai He walked inside, unexpectedly, he even discovered that Ning Rongrong was also inside.

She was dressed in men’s clothing.

When she raised her eyes, she saw Ye Shiyuan and Bai He but she did not say anything and silently withdrew her gaze.

Bai He’s attention was of course not on her.

He walked straight toward Xu Feng.

Xu Feng was lying on a chair, still holding a wine jug, and muttering words like "continue drinking" in a dazed voice.

Bai He rubbed his brow and said, "Take him away."

"Yes."

Ye Shiyuan supported Xu Feng and left the wine shop.

No one objected.

The drunk Xu Feng was even more fond of boasting than usual, and everyone there had already learned his identity.

Bai He walked to a spot and pointed at a step. "Throw him here?"

Ye Shiyuan obediently threw Xu Feng onto the steps.

Bai He chanted a spell, and water was directly splashed onto his face.

Xu Feng instantly woke up.

"Master, Senior Brother, why are you here?"

"How long do you plan to keep hugging your wine bottle?"

"Master, please don’t be angry. I was just too happy and drank a bit more with everyone."

Seeing Bai He’s angry expression, Xu Feng immediately threw away the bottle in his hand and hurriedly apologized.

Bai He let out a light snort.

He really was not worry-free.

"You are outside drinking yourself into a stupor. What if something happens?"

"How could anything happen? They all know my identity. They would not dare to do anything to me."

That was exactly why it was even more dangerous.

Bai He wanted to smack him, but the child was already grown up, so he decided to let it go.

"Younger Brother, even though the Lingguang Sect has many friends, it also has many enemies. You must be careful."

Ye Shiyuan seemed to fully understand what Bai He wanted to say.

He spoke on his behalf, and Bai He nodded firmly.

Very much in agreement.

"I understand, Master."

"And you as well. You look completely drunk. How embarrassing. If you cannot drink, then do not drink..."

Xu Feng felt embarrassed after being lectured.

He stood up from the ground and chanted a spell, dispersing the water stains on his body.

"Master, what about the wedding?"
