Chapter 201 The Untamed 7
The two moored their boat near the lotus leaves, where there were many lotus pods, and began to pick them.
Li Shuang picked a lotus pod, immediately peeled open the lotus seeds inside, and removed the bitter lotus heart.
"Xichen, try it. I picked it myself. Is it delicious?" She held the lotus seed to Lan Xichen's lips.
He smiled slightly, opened his mouth, and ate the lotus seed.
After a moment, he nodded and said, "It's delicious, with a very sweet and refreshing taste."
After saying that, he peeled pears for Li Shuang, and the two fed each other.
They had a great time for a while. After picking enough lotus pods, Li Shuang sat on the boat and enjoyed the scenery, while Lan Xichen peeled lotus seeds for her.
Pear Frost ate them one by one, enjoying them immensely. She even secretly picked some lotus pods for Xiao Qi.
"Thank you, host, hehe."
"Go eat!"
Watching him carefully peel lotus seeds, Li Shuang said, "Xi Chen, come a little closer."
Upon hearing this, Lan Xichen leaned closer to her in confusion. Li Shuang leaned in and heard his slightly rapid breathing.
Li Shuang smiled and kissed him directly.
A lotus seed was transferred from Li Shuang's mouth to his.
Then Li Shuang stepped back, smiling, and said, "Try it, how about the lotus seeds you peeled yourself?"
Lan Xichen was still stunned, his ears burning a little. When he came to his senses, he actually started to taste it with a serious expression.
"Not bad, it tastes even better than the ones I peeled before." He nodded as he spoke.
His appearance amused Li Shuang: "Hahaha."
Lan Xichen saw her smiling happily, looked around, and saw that there was no one around.
He pulled her hand and applied slight pressure, causing her body to lean against him. Then, he embraced her and began to take the initiative, realizing that she had separated from him too quickly and he hadn't had a chance to enjoy himself yet.
A kiss filled with the fragrance of lotus blossoms lasted for a long time before the two finally stopped.
Li Shuang's lips grew even redder, and Lan Xichen's gaze darkened as he watched.
"It's getting late, let's head back now!"
Li Shuang thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let's go then!"
The two rowed back to shore, and found an inn to stay at, carrying lotus seeds and unpeeled lotus pods.
Afterwards, Li Shuang accompanied Lan Xichen to resolve his grievances, and then he went to participate in the Hundred Schools Hunt.
“Then I’ll go in first!” Li Shuang said, pulling Lan Xichen’s hand.
He patted Li Shuang's head and said reluctantly, "Why don't you come with me?"
Li Shuang shook her head and said with a smile, "I won't go, but I can watch over you from inside the bell and chat with you."
Lan Xichen had no choice but to nod and watch as Li Shuang entered the bell.

During the hunt at Baifeng Mountain, Li Shuang was inside observing the situation outside.
Xiao Qi chimed in, "Host, is the Jin family the second Wen family?"
"Yes, wherever there are people, there will be struggles, fighting and scheming for profit."
The group began their hunt in the mountains, and Jin Guangyao walked towards Lan Xichen.
"Second brother, I was busy just now and didn't have time to talk to you."
Lan Xichen shook his head and said with a smile, "It's nothing!"
They chatted casually for a few minutes before heading into the woods.
Then he encountered a group of people arguing, and Jin Guangyao went up to ask them what was going on.
He was scolded and ridiculed by Madam Jin, and Jin Zixun didn't take him seriously.
"Host, Jin Guangyao has suffered so much humiliation, no wonder he's so scheming!"
“Isn’t that how all villains start out?” Li Shuang said casually.
“The host is right!” Xiao Qi nodded.
When Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji met, they walked back together.
"Wangji, I've noticed you've been looking worried lately. Is something on your mind?"
Lan Wangji hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Brother, I want to take someone back to Cloud Recesses and hide them away."
"Wow, host, Lan Wangji's words are so sweet and romantic!"
"You're still swooning over him? Don't you have a boyfriend?" Li Shuang looked at him, seeing him acting like a little kid, still infatuated with someone.
"Hehe, watching a drama!" Xiao Qi said with a smile.
Lan Xichen knew who he was talking about and said, "I'm afraid he might not be willing!"
Lan Wangji didn't speak, knowing that what he said was true.
Upon hearing Lan Xichen's words, Li Shuang said, "But you know what, this drama is indeed quite ahead of its time. Lan Xichen can even accept his younger brother, which shows how special he is towards men!"
"Yes, yes, love transcends gender, that's certainly ahead of its time," Xiao Qi nodded.
At the banquet, Lan Xichen saw Su She, a traitor of the Lan clan.
Jin Guangyao walked over, feigning innocence, pretending not to know about the matter, or that he had just learned about it from the sidelines.
Jin Guangyao: "Second brother, I didn't know about this. Just now..."
Lan Xichen shook his head good-naturedly: "It's alright, ignorance is no excuse, you don't need to worry about it."
After he finished speaking, he went to his seat and sat down.
Li Shuang transmitted her voice to Lan Xichen: "Xichen, do you really believe he doesn't know?"
Lan Xichen smiled and said, "Shuangshuang doesn't believe me?"
"I don't believe it. He must know. Xichen, you think everyone is so perfect!" Li Shuang's voice came from behind.
Lan Xichen listened to her words and reflected on them.
Li Shuang continued, "But it's also because you have a kind and gentle nature, that's true!"
Lan Xichen listened to her reasoning and evidence, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Then what do you think?"
“If you don’t get scammed, of course I think there’s no problem!” Li Shuang said truthfully.
Lan Xichen smiled and said, "Then that's settled. From now on, whenever we encounter something uncertain, I'll listen to you, and no one will be able to fool me!"
Li Shuang sat cross-legged inside the bell, her hands supporting her chin, and asked, "Really?"
“Of course, I know you care about me, and you are the most important to me,” Lan Xichen said earnestly.
Li Shuang became interested. "Then it's a deal! No going back on your word!"
"I won't go back on my word," Lan Xichen assured him.
“Okay.” Li Shuang nodded.
Xiao Qi's voice came through: "Host, Jin Zixun is about to cause trouble. Should we stop him?"
Li Shuang casually said, "Well, we can't just watch Lan Xichen suffer because of him. Xiao Qi, think of a way."
“Host, I can make him faint without being detected. Your spiritual power is not suitable for taking action,” Xiao Qi said.
“Okay, let’s do it this way. Jin Zixun is too much of a troublemaker; this will be a good opportunity for some peace and quiet.”
Jin Zixun stood up, took the wine jug, and took a step when he suddenly collapsed to the ground with a thud.
This action startled everyone, who all stood up and exclaimed, "What's wrong with Young Master Jin?"
Sect Leader Jin quickly ordered his men to carry him away and find someone to look after him.
Wei Wuxian walked in and saw this scene. He had something to discuss with Jin Zixun.
Because of Kim Ja-hoon's fainting, the Hundred Flowers Banquet ended early, and the subsequent farce was averted.
Lan Xichen and everyone else were in the hall, waiting for Jin Zixun's condition.
In the end, the person still hadn't woken up by night, and no one noticed anything wrong, so they had no choice but to let everyone go and rest.
