Extra 2: Mid-Autumn Festival II - Vegetarian

  Lu Chen and Gu Yanzhi had no friendship. He only heard that he was from the Gu family in Jiangnan. When did this member of the Gu family, who was always aloof and arrogant because of his talent, start to eat for free with a smug look on his face?

  Although he thought so, he responded, "Since Lord Gu doesn't mind, I won't be stingy with a vegetarian meal."

  Gu Yanzhi nodded slightly, "Thank you, Master."

  The two of them exchanged a few words. At the side, Shen Mian was scribbling on paper with a wolf-hair brush out of boredom. When he saw that they had finished chatting, he turned his head slightly. His long black hair fell on the rice paper, as beautiful as silk. His black hair made his skin look white, and his red lips seemed to be dyed with rouge. He really looked like an immortal who had walked out of a painting.

  The two were both stunned.

  Shen Mian seemed not to notice. He threw down the wolf hair brush and snorted, "I thought you were going to talk about this until tomorrow. A vegetarian meal is worth thanking for."

  His words were so direct that Lu Chen did not feel offended. Instead, he found it somewhat amusing. He said, "Master Gu wants to dine with us. What do you think?"

  Shen Mian was surprised and said, "Why is the prince asking me, a guest, for my opinion when you are the host? Besides, I have always admired Lord Gu's demeanor, so it would be great if I could see him up close."

  He always spoke in a somewhat distracted tone, with a pair of peach blossom eyes containing a faint smile. Even when he said flattering words, it seemed as if he was deliberately teasing or provoking them.

  Lu Chen said: "I didn't know that you have admired Master Gu for a long time."

  Shen Mian said: "Although I have never met Lord Gu, I have heard of his talent and reputation a long time ago. It is not surprising that I admire him. Besides, the prince will not know everything about me, right?"

  Lu Chen was slightly stunned, not knowing whether his words had any hidden meaning.

  Shen Mian added: "Mr. Gu's articles are all wonderful, but sometimes they make people uncomfortable."

  Gu Yanzhi asked: "Why is this?"

  Shen Mian smiled and said, "It makes me think that I am too stupid to write such a good article."

  Gu Yan was stunned, then smiled and said, "Young Master, you are too kind. I did not ask for your name."

  "Me?" Shen Mian glanced at Lu Chen, and suddenly smiled, "I am the distant cousin of the prince. Lord Gu can call me Cheng Xin. I just came to the capital from the northwest desert not long ago, and I have not learned any etiquette. Lord Gu, please forgive me for making fun of me."

  Lu Chen frowned slightly, but the sleeve under the table was gently tugged twice by the lying prince. He lowered his eyes and saw only a slender white wrist being quickly retracted. He was silent for a moment, but in the end did not expose him.

  His maternal grandfather was the General Zhenxi, and his family had been guarding the border in the northwest for many years. His distant cousins ​​were indeed all in Mobei, so the prince's lie was not too far-fetched. It was just that the young man in front of him had a delicate air, with red lips and white teeth, and was as beautiful as a carefully carved and polished jade doll. He didn't look like a boy who grew up in the desert, but rather like a golden fairy who fell from the Tianchi Yaotai.
