Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

Even though her eyes weren't open, Hu Tao reached out her hands, saying, "I want a hug."

What I fear most is when someone who doesn't usually act cute suddenly starts acting cute.

Jiang Bai felt his health bar instantly emptied.

"My goodness, I'm completely doomed by you."

What could Jiang Bai do? Of course, he gave her a hug.

Endure the physical torment, behave yourself, and be well-behaved.

But at the same time, tears were flowing in my heart.

He's working so hard. When will the sect leader finally come of age?

It was around dark when Jiang Bai left Hu Tao's room.

He lay in the gurgling pool, staring blankly at the sky.

It's too hasty to be with the sect leader right now, really.

Waaaaaah X﹏X

It's so hard for him to stay calm!

It jumped onto his face with a plop, looking at him with a puzzled expression. It didn't understand what had gotten into its master this time, making him soak in its own pool.

Jiang Bai parted it, took out an ice mist flower and put it in the water, only then did he feel his body temperature drop.

Hu Tao slept straight through until the next morning.

She sat up in bed, feeling a bit unwell in her head.

She tried to recall what had happened yesterday, but couldn't remember how she got back.

"Hiss, is he drunk?"

It's just a little sweet rice wine, how could that make you drunk?

This was the first time Hu Tao had realized that her alcohol tolerance was actually so low.

"Master, are you awake?" Jiang Bai's knocking sounded at the door.

"Ah."

Hu Tao yawned and walked out of the room.

"How's your head? Are you dizzy?"

"Thank goodness, was I drunk? What happened next? How did I get back?"

She only remembers feeling sleepy and then falling asleep; she has no recollection of what happened afterward.

"Yes, Master, you're drunk. I brought you back."

Chapter 636 You're Like My Sweet Flower

When did I get back?

"I'm not sure, I didn't pay attention to the time."

Have you paid the bill?

"It should have been put in the books." Jiang Bai didn't go back afterward, and didn't know what happened to them after they left.

I suddenly remembered that I hadn't packed the shrimp dumplings yet, but it was too late to do so now.

Walnut stretched and completely forgot about the shrimp dumplings.

"First, a morning run around Liyue Harbor, then breakfast, followed by martial arts practice at the training grounds, and then fishing at Tianheng Mountain in the afternoon..."

Hu Tao quickly arranged the day's tasks.

As the head of a large organization with many employees, Hu Tao fully embodies the fine tradition of delegating tasks to her subordinates. Even though the organization now has a lot of business, she still has plenty of time to do nothing.

Jiangbai is just as capable when it doesn't need to conduct business.

In the afternoon, two idle men took their fishing rods and bait to a quiet pond in Tianheng Mountain to fish.

Despite saying he was fishing, Walnut simply stuck the fishing rod into the ground and had Little Ghost guard it while she lay on the grass under the shade of a tree, enjoying the breeze.

A cool mountain breeze blows, bringing the fragrance of grass and trees. Ripples spread across the lake, and a few lotus leaves sway in the wind.

Jiang Bai picked a large bunch of wildflowers of various colors from somewhere, hung them upside down on the tree, and handed them down.

The fragrance of flowers lingered around her nose, and with a smirk, Hu Tao reached out and pulled him down.

Jiang Bai landed steadily with a backflip, a sweet flower still dangling from her mouth.

He propped himself up on his elbows and pretended to take the sweet flower from his hand and hand it to Hu Tao.

"Master, do you know what you resemble?"

Hu Tao turned to the side, propped her chin on her hand, and looked at him with a serious expression.

"Like what?"

Jiang Bai winked, "You're like my sweet flower, I want to plant you all over my vegetable garden~"

walnut:"……"

Is it okay to fill the whole garden with vegetables?

Hu Tao reached out and gently tapped him on the forehead, then took the sweet flower, plucked a petal and put it in her mouth, immediately launching into a limerick.

"A wildflower in my hand, and a fool beside me."

Jiang Bai continued with the next sentence:

"You and I are sitting under the tree, along with a frog!"

Hu Tao looked down and saw a frog cautiously hopping past her.

Seeing them looking over, the frog let out a terrified croak and jumped directly into the pond, scaring away the fish that were about to bite the hook.

"It even rhymes..."

When Hu Tao praised him, Jiang Bai immediately got excited, nodding and swaying his head, and composed another limerick on the spot.

"Frogs croak, birds chirp. A Hilichurl jumps out, olah!"

Hu Tao wiped her face, and under Jiang Bai's expectant gaze, she finally gave a reluctant compliment.

"Your Hilichurl language is pretty good, huh..."

"I learned that from a Hilichurl expert in Mondstadt. Like this 'olah,' it means to say hello..."

Jiang Bai got even more excited; if it had a tail, it would definitely be sticking up really high.

He began enthusiastically explaining the complete Qiuqiu language to Hu Tao.

“Come, Master, repeat after me, mi muhe ye!”

“mi muhe ye…”

Hu Tao read it aloud, not understanding why.

"What does it mean?"

Jiang Bai looked into his eyes and suddenly leaned closer.

He blinked and, under Hu Tao's slightly widened and somewhat nervous gaze, kissed her on the cheek.

"It means I love you."

Hu Tao blushed bright red, feeling the spot where he had kissed her burning hot.

Even though they were already in a romantic relationship, this straightforward and direct expression of affection still made her feel somewhat at a loss.

"Where did you learn that from?" Hu Tao tried to change the subject.

“Kaya taught me this; it’s from one of his poems.”

"Not bad..." Hu Tao commented seriously, trying to hide her embarrassment at blushing.

Jiang Bai did not do as she wished at all. Instead, he rested his chin on his hand and looked at her with great interest.

"Oh dear, Master, your face is so red!"

The blushing hall master is so cute!

Walnut puffed out her cheeks and made a coquettish gesture.

"You attacked me from behind, you have no sportsmanship!"

"Where did I ambush you? I kissed you openly and honestly!" Jiang Bai pretended to kiss him again.

Hu Tao grabbed him and tickled his ticklish spots.

Jiang Bai clenched his fists, covering his armpits but not his waist.

"Hahahaha—I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"Hmph, Serves you right for laughing at me! Now I'll let you laugh your fill!"

The little ghost beside him shook his head, turned around, and covered his eyes.

It's simply unbearable to look at.

A mountainside in Tianheng Mountain.

Yi Dou stood on a large rock, tiptoeing and looking around.

"Where did that guy go? He's really fast."

Jiuqi sighed, "It's all because you were too enthusiastic, boss, that you scared everyone away."

Yi Dou snorted, "He was the one who dragged me into wanting to become sworn brothers yesterday. I even came to him to become sworn brothers, and now he's gone back on his word! How can that be allowed!"

Seeing that he was missing one of his underlings, he had to make up for it!

"He was clearly not in a good mental state yesterday, boss, you're taking advantage of him..."

Yesterday, Chongyun was originally trying to exorcise a ghost from Yidou, but in the process, the two of them ended up putting their arms around each other's shoulders, considering each other confidants, and even wanting to become sworn brothers on the spot.

If Xingqiu hadn't intervened in time, Chongyun would have had another half-brother from the Ghost Clan.

The next morning, Yi Dou found out Chong Yun's location and immediately set off to find him and become sworn brothers.

This terrified Chongyun, who immediately ran away.

"Ah Ren, how can you say that? I didn't swear brotherhood with him yesterday, so I only came to see him today."

Jiuqi Ren's lips twitched. He really wanted to say that you didn't become sworn brothers yesterday, not because you didn't want to, but because someone pulled you back.

"I saw something blue, it must be there!"

Suddenly, Yidou's eyes lit up, and he jumped off the rock and ran straight towards the blue thing he saw.

To his disappointment, however, it was not Chongyun.

"What the heck, it's actually an Ice Mist Flower..."

He angrily kicked the Ice Mist Flower, and the flower's roots bounced back, sending the bud crashing directly into his face.

"Hey! You little ice mist flower, how dare you hit this great man!"

Ignoring the cold, he grabbed the root of the ice mist flower and tried to pull it out entirely.

Watching the Oni clan member from Inazuma struggle with an Ice Mist Flower, Chongyun, hiding behind a large rock, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He was meditating and practicing his skills when suddenly this person appeared and said he wanted to become sworn brothers with him and asked him to call him "Big Brother." He almost froze the person with a single move.

But the other party insisted that he had taken the initiative to propose the sworn brotherhood, and even brought witnesses.

But he really had no recollection of it at all.

I can't remember anything that happened yesterday.

Chapter 637: Is there no need for a sworn brotherhood ceremony?

Chongyun felt very tired, both physically and mentally.

Ever since he learned from the immortal that the pure yang body cannot be suppressed but also needs to be channeled, he would drink a hot beverage in a safe place, come into contact with a heat source, and release the pure yang power in his body.
