After passing the arch bridge and entering the river paths, Wei WuXian started to go at it again.

"Someone is gonna drink a jar of vinegar." said Jiang Cheng.

"Maybe a ton of it." said Nie Huaisang.

Abandoning his paddle, he put one foot on the side of his boat and looked into his reflection in the water, examining if his hair was messed up. As if he didn't just catch tons of water ghouls and escaped from the mouth of the waterborne abyss, Wei WuXian assuredly threw a series of charming winks at both sides of the path, "Sisters, how much for half a kilogram of loquats?"

Sizhui looked at father whose face was dark while looking at the screen.

"Is he flirting?" asked Jin Zixuan.

"As you can see he is." said Jiang Cheng.

"What you see Lan Zhan is nothing. It's nothing at all." said Wei Wuxian nervously.

"Good luck to you, Wei-xiong." said Nie Huaisang.

His age was young, and his appearance was handsome. With such high spirits, it really was a scene of frivolous peach blossoms pursuing the running stream. One woman lifted her bamboo hat, smiling with her head raised, "Young beau, you needn't pay. How 'bout I can give you one for free?"

The Wu dialect was soft, sounding refreshing and sweet. The speaker's lips moved melodiously, and the listener's ears would be enveloped in fragrance. Wei WuXian cupped his hands together, "If it's given to me by Sister, then I definitely want it!"

Everyone can feel that the atmosphere suddenly turns cold.

Lan Wangji was gripping Wei Wuxian's waist so tight.

"Don't tell me he is really jealous." said Jiang Cheng.

"If you flirt with other girls, I will also get jealous. That's normal." said Lan Xichen.

"But I am not a flirt." said Jiang Cheng.

"And I am thankful for that." said Lan Xichen while smiling brightly.

The woman put her hand into the basket, and threw him a round, golden loquat, "You needn't be such polite. It's for how handsome you look!"

The boats moved at a fast speed. As the two boats met, they immediately passed each other. Wei WuXian turned around, perfectly catching it, and grinned, "Sister looks even prettier!"

"Ow Lan Zhan don't hold too tight!" exclaimed Wei Wuxian as Lan Wangji gripped his waist more tightly.

"Wei Ying is flirting." said Lan Wangji.

"Lan Zhan, are you really jealous?" asked Wei Wuxian.

"Don't worry Lan Zhan, I will never do that again and please don't hold too tight or else my waist will snap." he said while hugging the man.

As he showed off and flirted on the side, Lan WangJi was staring straight ahead, appearing quite virtuous. Wei WuXian smugly tossed the toquat in his hand, and suddenly pointed at him, "Sisters, do you think that he looks handsome?"

Lan WangJi didn't expect Wei WuXian to suddenly talk about him at all. Just as he was unsure of how to respond, the women on the river spoke in harmony, "Even more handsome!" Amid this, there seemed to be thelaughter of a few men.

Wei WuXian spoke, "Then, does anyone want to give him one? If you only give me and not him, I'm afraid he might be jealous when we go back!"

"No need for you guys to go back for him to get jealous because he is already from the moment you talked with those girls." said Nie Huaisang who along with Jiang Cheng.
