As soon as Zhou Chifu looked at Shi Quan, he immediately remembered the brief time he spent with Lu Zhicheng when he was on the front line. He felt his cheeks were a little hot and subconsciously coughed twice.
"Master Zhou, you are finally here. My master is waiting for you upstairs. Please come." Shi Quan walked up to Zhou Chi and said respectfully.
The waiter in the shop was also so busy that he laughed and said, "Please come in, my distinguished guest!"
Zhou Chi coughed and followed Shi Quan into the inn. However, Shi Quan did not go upstairs. He just stood straight at the entrance of the stairs: "Master Zhou, please come upstairs."
Zhou Chi's face became even hotter and he went upstairs without saying a word.

Lu Zhicheng was already waiting upstairs and was impatient. Guang Zhuyeqing had already drank two bottles. He leaned against the window and kept staring outside, his eyes almost bursting with fire. He finally watched Zhou Chi riding away. Come, while he was so busy that Shi Quan went down to pick up people, he hurriedly twisted the handkerchief and wiped his face in the mirror. He had been working day and night for the past half month. He was used to it in the military camp and didn't feel it was hard, but At this time, he was very dissatisfied with the black and blue under his eyes. He was so busy that he rubbed his face vigorously, and then sighed and threw away the veil.
He listened to the "dong dong" footsteps coming from downstairs. The footsteps seemed to be stepping on his heart. They were getting louder and louder, getting closer and closer, and his heartbeat became faster and faster. He was so nervous that he quickly ran to the table and drank most of the bowl of tea. As soon as he put down the tea bowl, he heard a gentle knock on the door from outside.
Lu Zhicheng was so busy that he ran to the door in three or two steps, and opened the carved door. As soon as he saw the person outside the door, his heart immediately rose to his throat, and his stomach was full of stuff. He couldn't even say anything. He was nervous and excited. He didn't know where to look with his eyes. He rubbed his hands and said to Zhou Chi: "You... are you here?"
Zhou Chi said "hmm". He looked at Lu Zhicheng's appearance. His heart, which had been tense all the way, suddenly calmed down. He looked at Lu Zhicheng and said softly: "What? You don't invite me?" Come in and sit down?”
"Come in! Come in quickly, it's cold outside," Lu Zhicheng was so busy that he let Zhou Chi in. He took Zhou Chi to sit down at the small table in front of the window, and hurriedly poured tea for Zhou Chi while mumbling, " Warm yourself up with a cup of hot tea. This green bamboo leaf is good. I brought it from... from the capital... "
Zhou Chi watched Lu Zhicheng pour himself tea with trembling hands and brought it over. His hands were shaking badly, but they were also really beautiful. His fingers were long and his nails were full. Because he had practiced in southern Xinjiang for so long, Lu Zhicheng was darker than before, and his skin was a healthy wheat color. At this time, he didn't know whether it was because of nervousness, but the blood vessels under the skin were slightly bulging. Zhou Chi couldn't help but look at the hands a few more times. When Lu Zhicheng spoke again, he was too busy to look away.
"The capital has good bamboo leaf green. I brought you some. Do you like it after trying it?" Lu Zhicheng also held a tea bowl and pursed his lips and said to Zhou Chi. Zhou Chi was not wearing official uniform today. Wearing a moon-white slanted brocade robe with a white jade crown on his head, Zhou Chi looked very lazy and casual today compared to the spacious and serious official uniforms he usually wears. Moreover, he has fair skin, and today he is wearing light-colored clothes. He was even whiter. Sitting in the warm sunshine at this time, his whole body looked like a piece of transparent white jade. Lu Zhicheng couldn't help but be fascinated.
