novelLet's party together

"7th Prince."
"No need to be so courteous, Nian maiden! We are not the uptight type. You're way too formal."
Then, Nangong Jun Xi swept his peach blossom eyes around and landed on the silent Le Yao Yao.
When Le Yao Yao sensed Nangong Jun Xi's eyes, she bowed and said, "Servant wishes you well, 7th Prince."
"Haha! You sure woke up early! Did you have fun last night? Why don't we do it again later!?! Let's party on the decorated pleasure boat!"
Clearly, Nangong Jun Xi wanted Le Yao Yao to be his drinking partner.
You can't blame him. Ever since he had arrived at Prince Rui's residence, he had always wanted to go drinking. Yet, it was such a difficult wish. His senior brother refused to get drunk and had always maintained his guard. In addition, Leng Jun Yu was so boring. Drinking with him was like drinking with the lid on. There was no point.
As for Dongfang Bai, he could definitely handle his liquor. However, he was always so elegant. He would never took huge gulps or ruin his graceful image. So, in Nangong Jun Xi's opinion, drinking with him also felt quite restraint as well.
However, this little guy was different. At least, "he" could play drinking games with him! Plus, he would take huge gulps and drink heartily.
So, even though his head was pounding like it was about to explode, Nangong Jun Xi still wanted to do it again!
Hence, the moment he found out that the little guy was at the medical clinic, he rushed here.
However, this feeling wasn't reciprocated. Le Yao Yao pouted her red lips and instantly refused.
"No thanks."
"Huh? Why not?"
Nangong Jun Xi was surprised by Le Yao Yao's rejection. But he quickly readjusted himself and *pa* as he closed his fan. He smiled with his teeth and laughed, "I know! You're afraid if you drink too much, you'll get a headache the next day! Haha. That's a reasonable concern. In the past, the first time I got drunk, I felt as if my head would explode. I thought I was going to die! But slowly, I began to fall in love with drinking. Hm... since you don't want to, we can go another time!"
Then, Nangong Jun Xi lifted his robe and sat down; just in time for Xiao Tang to deliver the tea to him.
Nangong Jun Xi had talked too much, so his mouth was dry. So, he drank some tea to nourish his throat. Then, he turned to Dongfang Bai, "Oh yeah. Didn't you say you guys want to go for a ride on the West Lake? Let's go now! I happened to be hungry as well."
Nangong Jun Xi's eyes were on Le Yao Yao again. He was smiling.
"Xiao Zhu Zi, you've never been to the West Lake, right? Let me tell you, West Lake is pretty damn fun! The night scenery is stunning. Most importantly, there are plenty of snacks along the riverbank. They are super tasty! There's sweet, sour, spicy, and everything else you can think of! Later, you're going to be in luck!"
"Really?!"
Hearing this, Le Yao Yao couldn't help but feel emotional. After all, she had never been to the West Lake before. In the past, she had heard from plenty of people that the snacks were great! But she never had a chance to go.
After all, buying things required money and she had no money.... so obviously she couldn't go to those places!
While Le Yao Yao was feeling excited, she failed to notice a pair of long, narrow cold pupils observing her. Leng Jun Yu's eyes flickered.
However, her excitement only lasted for a moment. Then, her smile began to falter.
Because, the King of Hell had already said no to Nian Sulan. Nian Sulan had begged him to go, yet he didn't even care.
So now, how could she go if her boss didn't want to go?
Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao's face turned gloomy.
Nangong Jun Xi noticed his and blinked his peach blossom eyes; confused."What's wrong?"
Wasn't he ok just a second ago? Why was he so upset now?
Le Yao Yao pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She had her head lowered as she stared at the tip of her toes.
Before Nangong Jun Xi could press further, Leng Jun Yu interrupted."If everyone wants to go on a ride to the West Lake, then let's go."
"What? Cousin Yu, you're willing to go?!"
Hearing this, Nian Sulan's face immediately lit up like a glorious peach blossom. She assumed Leng Jun Yu suddenly changed his mind because of her. So, she was ecstatic.
As for Le Yao Yao, she was quite stunned.
Didn't he say he didn't want to go? Why did he change his mind??
Man, his mood is so unstable and unpredictable.
Le Yao Yao couldn't see through Leng Jun Yu, so she left it.
As for Dongfang Bai, his pupils knowingly flickered after Leng Jun Yu's words.
——
Sources say that the West Lake was the Heaven Yuan dynasty's biggest, deepest, and clearest lake.
The water was deep and unmeasurable. In addition, it covered a vast area. It surrounded the entire Capital and actually flowed through the ocean.
Furthermore, since the water was so clear, various groups of fishes could be seen when people looking down.
Currently, the Sun had completely set. Right now, the moon was hanging amongst the river of stars.
By the riverbank of West Lake, the entire path was filled with food stalls. Some of the stalls were selling chinese desserts, barbeque meat, and lightly fried appetizers.
Since there were countless of options, it kept all the tourists' eyes busy.
The moment Le Yao Yao arrived by the riverbank, the aroma of the food caused her stomach to growl. However, since she was a servant, she must first take care of her boss and his friends. It was her job to buy snacks for the others to enjoy. Later on, when they were on the boat, they will be able to enjoy the scenery and eat at the same time.
However, Dongfang Bai decided to accompany her to buy snacks. In the end, even the super picky and high class 7th Prince decided to help out to choose some items.
So, right now, Le Yao Yao, Dongfang Bai, and Nangong Jun Xi were walking at the front while Leng Jun Yu and Nian Sulan were following them from behind.
Along the way, Nian Sulan seemed super excited whenever she saw something she liked. She wouldn't stop chatting and pointing. However, Leng Jun Yu would only respond to her with one word. Ex."Oh?" "Really?" "Ah."
Despite Leng Jun Yu's lack of enthusiasm, it didn't affect Nian Sulan's mood at all.
After all, she was finally able to spend time with her beloved Cousin Yu. She felt as if they were going as a couple. It was something she had been longing for years.
Although there were three other people with them, it was fine. She had waited for her Cousin Yu for years, she didn't mind waiting a bit longer.
On the contrary, the three people ahead of them were acting the complete opposite.
"Woah! It smells so good! It looks delicious!" Le Yao Yao ran up to a barbecue stall and nearly drooled.
