Chapter 105 The Wine Thief

In the Lingxiu Villa, most of the things were for pleasure.

The first and foremost was the pleasure of bathing. Many men were bathing in the pool. At the sight of them, Tang Youyou was already dizzy.

She walked towards a pool not far away, but was suddenly pulled behind a screen by an inexplicable force from behind.

Rong Xun wrapped the petite Tang Youyou in his arms and whispered carefully in her ear, "Shh, just jump into the water later. These people won't let it go easily if they can't find you."

Rong Xun's voice was extremely pleasant. At this moment, it became a reassurance for Tang Youyou. She nodded silently.

She took a look at the man in front of her and always felt an indescribable familiarity.

Thinking of this, she quietly went to one side, gently took off her Western Regions clothes, and then picked up the clothes Rong Xun had just given her and changed into them.

On the other side of the screen, Rong Xun was also anxiously looking for Tang Youyou. "Brother Tang, Brother Tang? Where have you gone?"

At the same time, a black - clothed man in the distance turned back. In a hurry, Tang Youyou finally appeared in front of him. Rong Xun told her to hold her breath. Then, the two of them jumped into the water together.

In the pool, the two of them could vaguely see the black - clothed men checking above. However, at the same time, Tang Youyou's face was flushed.

Rong Xun signaled with his eyes for her to be more patient, but unexpectedly, Tang Youyou could no longer hold her breath. The bubbles in her mouth grew from small to large and floated upwards.

Tang Youyou stared at him with big eyes. She had run out of air and couldn't help but prepare to swim upwards.

At the same time, as the bubbles floated up, they also caught the attention of the black - clothed men. Those men looked thoughtfully at the pool.

At this moment, Rong Xun grabbed Tang Youyou's wrist and pulled her into his arms.

Before she could react, Rong Xun kissed her on the lips. With a deep kiss, he successfully breathed air into Tang Youyou.

The long breath made Tang Youyou, who couldn't hold her breath, return to normal immediately. It was not until the people above left that the two slowly surfaced.

As soon as Tang Youyou stood up, she slapped Rong Xun.

This slap left Rong Xun completely stunned.

"Pervert!"

After being slapped by Tang Youyou, Rong Xun saw a blush on Tang Youyou's face.

"We're both men. You're not shy, are you?"

Blocked by his words, Tang Youyou couldn't even voice her grievances. She said, "I'm not. I just think that even two men shouldn't do such a thing."

Saying that, Tang Youyou grabbed the clothes on the ground and disappeared behind the screen again. When she reappeared, she was wearing the clothes she had worn when she first came.

This behavior surprised Rong Xun even more. He joked, "We're both men. Who hasn't seen anything?"

At this moment, Rong Xun had already forgotten about the slap on his face, and the group of people who had left just now had already left the scene.

The two looked at each other. But at the next moment, Tang Youyou seemed to finally realize something. She felt around her belt, but it was empty.

She looked shocked and went back to the place where she had changed clothes just now, but the Drunken Immortal Brew was nowhere to be found.

Rong Xun deliberately lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Tang, are you looking for something?"

Tang Youyou nodded thoughtfully. "My wine is gone."

Hearing this, Rong Xun looked at her with a puzzled expression and said, "I don't think Brother Tang is a heavy drinker. Why are you so bothered about a jar of wine?"

Tang Youyou frowned. She looked up slightly and followed the faint smell of wine towards a place not far away.

The closer she got, the stronger the smell of wine became. She gently pulled open the screen, and on the other side of the screen, an old man with a hunched back was holding the wine jar with both hands, about to open the lid and drink.

When the lid of the wine jar was opened, the fragrance of the wine filled the air.

Now, Tang Youyou was sure that this man was the wine thief.

Tang Youyou snatched the Drunken Immortal Brew from the man's hand. She put one hand on her hip and held the wine jar with the other.

"Senior, stealing someone else's wine jar is an unkind act. You can't really justify this, can you?"

Hearing this, the old man turned around and looked at Tang Youyou. When their eyes met, he then looked at Rong Xun on one side.

After a while, he suddenly burst out laughing.

"You two are really... very interesting."

Rong Xun immediately recognized this man. A man who was addicted to alcohol but traveled alone with a wine flask, and had a long xiao on his waist, walking around freely. This was the well - known All - Knowing Scholar in the world.

"Staying at home but knowing everything in the world, Senior All - Knowing Scholar."

As soon as Rong Xun said this, the All - Knowing Scholar smiled slightly.

The All - Knowing Scholar got up from the ground, patted the dust on his hands, and looked at the two of them with a smile. "You two, who wants to ask about their own affairs?"

Who wanted to ask a question? This question made Tang Youyou slightly stunned.

"The wine belongs to me. Naturally, it's me who will ask."

But before she could finish her sentence, she heard the sound of an arrow breaking through the air behind her. Rong Xun instinctively hugged Tang Youyou again and suddenly turned around. The arrow grazed Rong Xun's arm.

If Rong Xun hadn't saved her in time, Tang Youyou would have been dead by now.

Looking at Rong Xun, who was injured for her, Tang Youyou said softly, "Thank you."

Rong Xun nodded and pointed at the jar of wine. "Go and ask quickly. It's such a good opportunity. I'm not that lucky."

Tang Youyou nodded. Then the two followed the All - Knowing Scholar to his place. They saw the man sitting on a reclining chair, leisurely holding the wine jar, and looking at Tang Youyou from time to time.

"Little girl, tell me. What do you want to ask?"

Being seen through by the old man in front of her, Tang Youyou wasn't surprised. That day, Lin Xiao had told Tang Youyou all about the All - Knowing Scholar's abilities. Naturally, she knew this man's capabilities.

But then she thought of Rong Xun, who had just saved her life. Although they had just met by chance, she couldn't not repay his life - saving grace.

Tang Youyou pondered for a long time and then slowly said,

"Can I only ask half a question?"

As soon as she said this, the All - Knowing Scholar, who had just picked up the wine jar, paused slightly. He had just moistened his mouth with the wine, but Tang Youyou's words forced his desire to drink back.

"Half a question?"

"I, the All - Knowing Scholar, have been in this world for so many years, and I've never seen anyone ask half a question."

Tang Youyou narrowed her eyes warily. "So, is it okay to ask half a question?"

The All - Knowing Scholar leaned back on the reclining chair and quietly looked at Tang Youyou. He crossed one leg over the other and kept twisting his ankle.

He said lazily, "Of course it's okay."
