As he sat down, Gu Mingyan placed one hand gently on his leg while the other hand reached for his long sleeves. Only then did he receive the tea offered by the waiter, drinking it all in one gulp to soothe his throat.

Her slender neck moved slightly, and her slender white wrist became even smoother, causing Xiao Ze to become even more addicted to her beauty.

"This tea is too bitter." After drinking, Gu Mingyan clicked his tongue and placed the empty cup down.

The waiter was stunned for a moment before hurriedly replying, "I just happened to bring some scented tea yesterday. Does Miss want to give it a try?"

"Yes, and a serving of the Sapphire Tofu and Sapphire Quail."

"Alright, what would you like to eat, young noble?" The waiter looked at Xiao Ze and Gu Ziyan with a smile.

Gu Ziyan raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corner of his mouth raised into a smile, making the waiter's eyes flicker unknowingly, yet two beauties appeared out of nowhere. While he was in a daze, the servant behind Xiao Ze coughed lightly, and said in a low voice: "Bring the best dishes from the Snowcloud Residence to the table."

Without getting angry, the waiter quickly left.

Gu Mingyan looked at the waiter's fleeing appearance, but he did not have any good impression of Crown Prince Xiao Ze.

The type of servant, the type of master.

Naturally, she wouldn't be so shy as to disturb this couple who might become husband and wife in the future, and she didn't want to be too harsh on herself. When the waiter brought the tea over, she placed the silver in his hand and smiled, "And also some sweet and sweet snacks."

"Right away." The waiter immediately left the private room with a smile on his face.

Gu Mingyan savored the bitter taste, the sweet and fragrant tea glowed slightly as he sat there, the sun and sky outside the window were the colors of the sky, and under the sunset, the city was filled with carriages. Looking further ahead, there was only the blurry outline of a mountain peak, until it blended into the sunset.

A man and a woman were respectfully chatting beside his ears.

Xiao Ze naturally would not disobey his mother's wishes and directly treated Gu Ziyan as nothing, but after chatting for a bit, he felt that it was boring, and an impatient look appeared on his face, "If I had known earlier, Sister Zi Yan would have learned a lot, but I never thought that Sister Zi Yan would also know about this set."

A trace of impatience flashed across Gu Ziyan's eyes, but on the surface, she still smiled coquettishly: "Although the theatre cannot be considered elegant, it is still extremely interesting. If His Highness the crown prince is interested, it would be better if we could dress up and take a look in a few days."

When it comes to men, learning is better than being fresh.

When Xiao Ze heard the two words "you and me", he was elated. The impatience in his eyes disappeared as he said, "If that's the case, then it's your fault, I can only observe the affairs of the people but not the citizens."

"The Crown Prince is busy with government affairs, he can't manage it."

After speaking appropriately, Gu Ziyan appeared even more so to be unflustered, and didn't slack off in the slightest when facing Xiao Ze's cold eyes.

Gu Mingyan was secretly amazed, Gu Ziyan treated men well.

After listening for a while, he felt that it was boring, so Gu Mingyan could only eat some food and pastries without touching any wine at all. On the other hand, he drank a small pot of scented tea, and when the sun had set, only lanterns were lit on the streets, as people walked in and out, it was not quiet at all.

Gu Ziyan and Xiao Ze were happily chatting when Gu Ziyan saw the commotion below him. He laughed and said, "Your Highness, since you are not going to the study today, aren't you going to take advantage of tonight's liveliness to take a stroll?"

"Very good." Xiao Ze was overjoyed, only then did he remember that there was a beauty beside him.

Gu Mingyan took this opportunity to turn back and smile: "Then, I'll hand Sister Zi Yan over to His Highness the crown prince."

Gu Ziyan wanted to bring the two beauties down the stairs to wander the streets as soon as he was completely blocked off from view. Gu Ziyan was wondering what Gu Mingyan was thinking, but Gu Mingyan had already brushed by him and disappeared into the crowd when the two of them went downstairs.

The crowd was noisy, so it wasn't too crowded.

Compared to facing Gu Zhiyuan's scoldings, he might as well take a good stroll around the city. He hid Linglong in a safe place and spent a few copper coins to buy a fox mask with half a face, revealing a pair of peach blossom eyes that would make the old lady's eyes go blank.

"Fox spirit!"

"What nonsense are you spouting!" The Lady Boss quickly knocked on the little girl's head and apologized to Gu Mingyan, "I hope Miss will forgive me. She only knows how beautiful a fox spirit looks like, but does not know what it means."

"I should really thank her for her praises."

Gu Mingyan took the opportunity to grab a white fan beside him, then paid the bill and indifferently left.

Walking through the streets, he heard the passerby say: "Miss Zhu Qing is one of the three great beauties of Shengan. Even if you have two restaurants under your command, they are still as beautiful as the clouds. Today, you said that you will compete with Hua Kui at the island in the lake.

Gu Mingyan's footsteps paused, and his eyes became even brighter.

She watched one of the three beauties every day, and she had not met the other two yet.

She quickly stopped the Young Master who had spoken and said with a smile, "Young Master, please wait. I've just arrived, and I've only heard that one of the three beauties is the Courtesan Belle of the pavilion. How can we compete with her today?"

When the two gongzis saw her, they were stunned. They truly thought that the fox spirit had appeared.

Seeing that it was only a finer mask, he smiled and said: "It's already been a few years since Miss Zhu Qing became Courtesan Belle. After she became Courtesan Belle, she couldn't even buy the seat next to her pillow with thousands of gold coins.

"Thank you for your information, Young Master."

Gu Mingyan imitated the martial artist and cupped her hands, her small body retreating into the crowd and disappearing.

The two gongzis looked at each other and were slightly dazed, "Could it be that it's a real fox spirit?"

And in the midst of the crowd, Gu Mingyan was caught red-handed by the person behind him, seemingly quite puzzled.

Seeing that the person beside her was dressed in a black robe, and there seemed to be two words written on her face, 'righteously and righteously', she held a long blade and tugged on her sleeve, revealing a worried look, "It is too unsafe for the young miss to be alone here."

He lifted his hand and pressed down on the mask, revealing only half of his face. "How did the Director recognize me?"

"Your clothes are the same as the one you saw this morning."

It was only then that Unitor-General loosened his grip on her sleeve in embarrassment.

"It's too late to change it." Gu Mingyan laughed, standing on his tiptoes, he could not see where the roads led to, and only asked: "I want to see that Miss Zhu Qing, where should I go?"

"If Eldest Miss wants to see Lady Zhu Qing, why don't you come with me?"

Seeing that she was only here to look at the beauties, he heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that she wanted to play around on a whim.

Gu Mingyan immediately agreed. At the end, when he arrived at the second floor of the small building on the island in the lake and saw Xiao Yiran dressed in a white robe, his eyelids started jumping as well: "Your Highness Fourth Prince?"

"Who is this fox girl?" Xiao Yiran was also stunned.
