Yang Guo: I'm invincible in the opening battle against Aunt Guo!

After greeting Guo Jing and Huang Rong.

Yang Guo then left the front hall.

The moon is now high in the sky.

Yang Guo walked slowly along the bluestone path.

The scene of Guo Fu eating roast chicken that afternoon is now vividly replaying in my mind.

Although the relationship hasn't reached the final stage yet.

But having this is actually not bad.

After all, this was his first time experiencing it.

Unfortunately, I didn't think of this operation before.

I remember Guo Fu crying out in pain.

Yang Guo stopped and leaned against a pillar in the corridor, looking up at the moon.

He must win over Guo Fu today.

Only by letting Guo Fu know his strength can he prevent trouble in the home.

Otherwise, Guo Fu would get him into trouble sooner or later.

Furthermore, since that girl has already decided on him and is willing to give up her possessiveness to be with him, then he should give her a complete explanation.

The pain she experienced during the day was ultimately due to his impatience; he hadn't prepared her properly.

Yang Guo suddenly remembered something good: wine.

"Alcohol can impair one's judgment, but it can also enhance enjoyment."

Yes.

If Guo Fu were to drink some wine, her body would relax slightly after she became slightly tipsy, and the pain would naturally lessen considerably.

Once the raw rice is cooked into cooked rice, everything will fall into place naturally.

Thinking of this, Yang Guo's lips curled up slightly, and a mischievous smile flashed in his eyes.

Guo Fu, that girl, seems to have a... not-so-good tolerance for alcohol.

He straightened his clothes and turned to walk towards the courtyard where Guo Fu was staying.

His steps were light, and he already had a plan in mind.

At the same time, don't forget to start humming softly while walking:

You got me drunk, you made me cry.

……

In Guo Fu's room.

She was sitting in front of her dressing table, gently touching the red marks on her neck in front of the mirror.

A beautiful face was reflected in the bronze mirror. Her eyes were full of affection, and her lips were slightly swollen. Although she had covered them with makeup, the traces could still be seen upon closer inspection.

Recalling the events that took place with Yang Guo in the room that afternoon, Guo Fu's cheeks flushed again.

Although she was in great pain, Yang Guo's gentleness and thoughtfulness filled her heart with sweetness.

His last sentence, "We'll continue tonight when you're ready," made her both expectant and apprehensive.

What I long for is to be completely united with the one I love.

What I'm apprehensive about is the pain...

"Fu-mei."

Yang Guo's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Guo Fu was overjoyed and quickly got up to open the door.

They saw Yang Guo standing outside the door.

"Brother Yang?" she said with a smile, "You've come..."

Yang Guo smiled slightly and gently stroked her cheek. "I can't sleep a little, so I'd like to take you somewhere."

"Where are you going?" Guo Fu asked, puzzled. "It's so late, what if Father and Mother find out..."

"Don't worry, it's alright." Yang Guo took her hand. "Come on, I'll take you for a stroll in the city."

Although Guo Fu had doubts, her trust in Yang Guo made her nod without hesitation: "Okay."

The two quietly left through the side gate of the Guo residence and stepped onto the night market streets of Xiangyang City.

Although it was already night, Xiangyang, as an important border city, still had a lively night market.

Shops lined both sides of the street, with lanterns hanging high.

Pedestrians come and go, some are chivalrous swordsmen with swords in hand, some are scholars reciting poems, and some are children chasing and playing.

On the surface, it appears to be a scene of prosperity.

Guo Fu rarely had the opportunity to go out at night, and seeing the night market so lively, she couldn't help but look around excitedly.

Street vendors were also shouting: "Bargain sale! Bargain sale! Top-tier martial arts technique, Dragon Claw Hand, only forty taels of silver! Hey, brother, I see you have extraordinary bones..."

"Special weapon: Thorn Particle Gloves. Don't miss out! Once you use them, you'll know their wonders. Young lady, come and take a look; they hold great secrets!"

"Get lost, you scoundrel!"

"Young lady, please don't go! Please believe me. If you don't believe in its amazing effects, I can let you try it right here. If you're not satisfied, you can return it. Young lady, please don't go... Sigh, you don't know what you're missing!"

Listening to the various bizarre hawking cries of the vendors around me.

Yang Guo and Guo Fu both fell silent.

They then smiled at each other and continued walking slowly toward the center of the street.

"Brother Yang, look at those sugar figurines!" she pointed to a small stall. "They're so exquisitely made!"

Yang Guo smiled and bought two sugar figurines, handing one to her and keeping the other for himself: "Try one."

Guo Fu took it, carefully licked it, and her eyes lit up: "So sweet!"

The two walked side by side down the street when Yang Guo suddenly asked, "Fu-mei, would you like some barbecue?"

"Roasted meat?" Guo Fu's eyes lit up even more. "I want some! The wild game you roasted on the way to Xiangyang was the best!"

"Then let's buy some ingredients and go back to grill it." Yang Guo pulled her towards a butcher shop.

The butcher was a burly man. Seeing Yang Guo's distinguished bearing, he greeted him warmly: "What kind of meat would you like, young master? The sheep was just slaughtered this afternoon; it's still very fresh!"

Yang Guo picked out a piece of the finest lamb leg and selected several side dishes.

When paying, the shopkeeper smiled and said, "Young master, you are truly blessed. Your wife is so beautiful; she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life."

Guo Fu blushed, but did not refute.

Yang Guo went to the wine shop and bought a jar of the finest Zhuyeqing liquor before returning to the Guo residence with Guo Fu.

Instead of returning to the front yard, they went straight to a secluded pavilion in the back garden.

This place is surrounded by water on all sides, connected by only one narrow path. It is usually quiet and rarely visited.

Yang Guo placed the ingredients on the stone table in the pavilion and said to Guo Fu, "You sit here, I'll go gather some firewood."

"I'll help you," Guo Fu said hurriedly.

"No need, you can just sit here." Yang Guo smiled and gently kissed her forehead. "I'll be back soon."

He flashed and disappeared into the night in a few leaps.

Guo Fu sat in the pavilion, looking at the ingredients on the table, and a sweet feeling welled up in her heart.

Brother Yang always treated her with such meticulous care and consideration.

Before long, Yang Guo returned carrying a bundle of firewood.

These firewood were all brought from the kitchen.

He deftly set up a pile of firewood on the open ground outside the pavilion, and then found a few flat stones to build a simple grill.

With a flick of the tinderbox, the pile of firewood began to ignite rapidly.

The orange-red flames leaped, dispelling the chill of the night and illuminating Yang Guo's focused profile.

Guo Fu stood to the side, resting her chin on her hands, watching him with a dazed expression.

Yang Guo sliced ​​the lamb leg meat into thin slices, skewered them with bamboo skewers, and then took out a small porcelain bottle and sprinkled some powder on the meat.

"What is this?" Guo Fu asked curiously.

"My special seasoning," Yang Guo said with a mysterious smile, "an exclusive recipe, guaranteed to taste delicious."

He placed the meat skewers over the fire and skillfully flipped and grilled them.

Before long, the oil dripped into the fire, making a sizzling sound, and the rich aroma of meat spread everywhere.

Guo Fu couldn't help but swallow.

Although she had just eaten dinner not long ago, her mother still had rules for her.

She could only eat until she was five or seven tenths full at dinner, so she was actually hungry now.

"You glutton." Yang Guo chuckled, blowing on the meat skewers until they were cool enough before handing them to her. "Be careful, they're hot."

Guo Fu took it and carefully took a bite.

The lamb was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with the spices perfectly seasoned, making it incredibly delicious.

"Delicious!" Her eyes curved into crescents.

Yang Guo took a string of wine for himself, then broke the mud seal on the wine jar and poured two bowls of Zhuyeqing wine.

"Come on, Fu-mei, have a drink with me."

Guo Fu looked at the clear wine in the bowl and hesitated, "I...I can't hold my liquor well."

"A little wine won't hurt," Yang Guo said, raising his bowl to clink with hers. "The moonlight is perfect, and with such a beautiful woman by my side, how can we do without wine?"

Guo Fu was swayed by his words, so she picked up the bowl and took a small sip.

The wine is mellow and sweet on the palate, with a refreshing aroma of bamboo leaves, and is not spicy.

The two ate and drank, chatting as they went.

Yang Guo recounted his amusing experiences in the martial arts world, his entanglement with Li Mochou in Zhongnan Mountain, and his rescue of Wanyan Ping and Yelü Yan.

He spoke vividly, and Guo Fu listened intently.

Before we knew it, more than half of the jar of wine was gone.

Guo Fu's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were glistening with tears; she was clearly intoxicated.

She leaned on Yang Guo's shoulder, her voice soft and sweet: "Brother Yang...you're so kind..."
