Chapter 1458 Returning as the Boss 17

Su Yan was drinking happily. When he returned to Taoyuan Cottage, Lin Zichou was still awake.

When he heard the noise, he hurried out and felt relieved when he saw that it was her coming back.

Seeing that he was relieved, Su Yan smiled and said, "Why, are you worried that something might happen to me?"

Lin Zichou walked up to her and prepared to help her, but was pushed away and refused by Su Yan.

"I'm not drunk, I don't need help."

Lin Zichou withdrew his hand, but did not completely let go. Instead, he held it around her to prevent her from falling.

"I'm really not drunk. Didn't I tell you that I can drink a lot without getting drunk?"

"I also didn't tell you that the peach blossom wine I brew is very easy to get drunk and has a strong aftereffect."

"Hahaha, really? That's amazing."

Lin Ziwu said with a helpless expression. Sometimes he really felt that Su Yan, this fairy, didn't look like a fairy at all.

She seemed more like a mortal being. She could easily blend into the surrounding environment and get along with mortals naturally. She didn't have that sense of superiority.

He had been to the mortal world for training before. Those immortal kings and fairies who went to the mortal world for training had a kind of contempt for mortals in their bones and looked superior.

It seems that they are so different from others that they look down on ordinary people. They think that ordinary people are stupid and ignorant, greedy and jealous.

But in fact, apart from their shorter lifespan, mortals are no worse than the creatures in the other four realms. Sometimes he even feels that mortals are smarter because they are good at inventing and creating, and they can use their wisdom to create many things that can be done by magic.

"Are you worried about something? Why aren't you asleep so late?"

"No, I was just a little worried when I saw you didn't come back."

Su Yan laughed: "I am a martial arts expert, you can rest assured that no one can hurt me."

"Yeah." He agreed now. If Su Yan went out to drink in the future, he would still wait for her to come back before going to rest.

Watching Su Yan walking back to Taoyuan Cottage in a crooked manner, he also went back to his room to sleep.

He had no intention of taking the imperial examination in this life. Having served as an official, he was more familiar with a lot of knowledge and its practical applications than the invigilating officials.

For some things, since you have experienced them before, you can naturally take shortcuts. He is not that pedantic. With the memories of his previous life, he knows better how to climb quickly.

On this day, Lin Zichou went out for a social event. Less than a cup of tea later, a beautiful lady found his residence. However, she went to the wrong door and wandered outside Taoyuan Cottage. Just as she stood on a slope, she saw the beautiful scenery of Taoyuan Cottage. She thought it was worthy of being the residence of Master Zichou. It was just like him, with beautiful scenery and beautiful women, so ethereal that it made people forget the world.

She plucked up her courage and gently knocked on the door, thinking about how she would thank him later.

When Su Yan yawned and came out to open the door, she was still a little surprised. Usually, when Zhang Jin and Lin Zichou came to see her, they rarely knocked on the door.

Zhang Jin would shout her name outside the door, and Lin Zichou would push the door open by himself. After all, Su Yan had told him not to be polite, and he really wasn't polite.

"Who?"

The moment she saw Su Yan, she was stunned. When she saw Su Yan's beautiful face, her face instantly turned red with embarrassment. She said nervously and ashamedly: "Um, I... am passing by... and want to ask for a bowl of water... Yes... I am very thirsty... Miss, can you give me a bowl of water?"

Su Yan saw that she looked flustered and embarrassed, and it didn't seem like she was asking for water.

Besides, if she saw it correctly, the other person had a shy look on his face and only became stunned and at a loss after seeing her.

Su Yan suddenly found it interesting and invited the person in.

"Girl, you are thirsty. Come in and sit down. I am bored at home alone. I will make you a cup of tea."

"Don't bother with that. I'm not that thirsty right now. If it's inconvenient, forget it."

The other party wanted to leave, but Su Yan stopped her calmly and said with a smile: "Young lady, since you are here, come in and sit down. There are very few women visiting my Peach Blossom Land, and it's rare that a beauty comes here."

Lanzhi felt a little ashamed when being praised as a beauty. She felt that she was not worthy of being called a beauty in front of the other person. The other person was the real stunning beauty.

Lanzhi couldn't resist Su Yan's enthusiasm and entered Taoyuan reluctantly. In fact, she was very curious about the relationship between Lin Zichou and Su Yan.

Su Yan invited everyone to the largest peach tree in the yard. The peach blossoms were bright and beautiful. The breeze was blowing gently, and occasionally a few petals would fall down. The smell of the flowers was refreshing.

Lanzhi felt a little awkward, so she sat on a low stool on a tree stump. Su Yan took out a set of tea sets and a stove and started to boil water and make tea.

"Miss, are you here to look for someone?" Su Yan asked with a faint smile.

"Ah."

"Looking for Lin Zichou?"

Lan Zhi was afraid that Su Yan would misunderstand her, so she quickly explained, "Actually, I came here to thank Master Zichou. The day before yesterday at the poetry gathering, I accidentally offended Master Renault, and it was Master Zichou who saved me, so I came here today to thank him for saving my life."

"So it's a hero saving a beauty?"

Lanzhi continued to explain with great fear: "Miss, please don't misunderstand me. I am just a singing girl in Tianxiang Tower. I dare not have any desire for Master Zichou. I came to your house with such a thick face today just to thank him for saving my life."

Su Yan could see that she really came to thank Lin Zichou. Even if she had any thoughts before, she didn't dare to have them now. She was afraid that she had misunderstood the relationship between herself and Lin Zichou.

"Don't be nervous, have a cup of tea first. The flower tea here is not available to ordinary people."

"Thank you girl."

"Don't call me a girl. My name is Su Yan. What's a girl's name?"

"My humble name is Lanzhi, I dare not pollute Miss Su Yan's ears."

Su Yan had heard of the name Lanzhi, the courtesan of Ducheng, from many people.

I thought that all the courtesans were high-spirited and high-spirited people, but I didn't expect that this Miss Lanzhi looked quite well-educated and well-mannered.

At least, she gave her a very good first impression, a good girl who knew her limits and was polite.

Su Yan poured her some more tea, and then slowly said, "Miss Lanzhi, there is no need to underestimate yourself. I have heard of your great name. You are as beautiful as your name, elegant and noble."

"I......"

"Actually, you misunderstood. This is not where Lin Zichou lives. He lives next door and I am his neighbor. But I get along well with the girl. You may as well come to my Peach Blossom Land often in the future."

"If Miss Su Yan doesn't mind..."

"Don't mind, don't mind. It's my blessing that such a beautiful woman can come and play with me."

"Then I would rather obey your orders than respect you."

"Well, the girl is also a straightforward person."

Su Yan took Lanzhi to the peach forest for sightseeing. Lanzhi couldn't help but exclaimed: "Are the peach blossoms blooming in this season? And I didn't even know there was a peach forest here before."

Su Yan smiled but said nothing.
