    Lee Ann Heart sent a transmission note to Lee Ann.

    “What should I do, my lord?”

    “He wants to buy you a drink, so you’re on your own.”

    Liam wanted to see how Liam Heart would respond.

    “I …… I’ve never been in this situation ……”

    “It’s my first time, too, seeing you in this situation.”

    “Can I really, like, make up my own mind?”

    “Sure.”

    “Then …… then I’m welcome.”

    Li An knew that teaching the Sorrowful Heavenly Sword Technique or opening up the two chakras was not as useful as experiencing it firsthand.

    The man introduced himself:

    “I am the young master of the Tianyang Sect, Gu Si.”

    He wore a gorgeous silk robe, and on his wrists and fingers, he wore gems of great value, even the folding fan in his hand was inlaid with a large gemstone that shone brightly.

    “Has the girl ever heard of us, the Tianyang Sect?”

    “No, I’m a lone voice, so please forgive me, Mr. Gu.”

    “There’s no harm in it, the girl doesn’t have to care.”

    The Heavenly Soil Sect, in the region, was considered quite a famous sect.

    Gu Si’s dress, at a glance, it was clear that he was from a famous family, and Li An Xin actually said that he had never heard of the Tianyang Sect, which made him a little embarrassed.

    “I wonder where the girl’s teacher comes from?”

    “I come from a small, remote sect, which Lord Gu should not have heard of.”

    “And …… what is the girl’s name?”

    “My name is Whiteface.”

    Li An Xin remembered the white mask he was wearing and made up a name off the top of his head.

    Gus froze for a moment when he heard the strange name, then smiled:

    “White-faced girl, why don’t we talk somewhere else?”

    “Not really, we’re in the middle of a conversation.”

    It was only then that Gu Si noticed Li An, who had been staring at Li An’s heart before and hadn’t even noticed Li An’s presence.

    “And this young warrior is?”

    Before Li An’s heart could figure out how to introduce Li An, Li An opened his mouth:

    “I am the white-faced girl’s escort.”

    Gu Si sniffed and frowned slightly.

    He was obviously wondering why the guard was eating at the same table as his master.

    Just that one subtle expression revealed his nature.

    Liam sent a transmission to Liam’s heart.

    “Today, let me be your escort, you’ve served me for so many years, it’s time for me to serve you for a day, enjoy it, there aren’t many opportunities like this.”

    “Thank you, my lord, I will enjoy it.”

    Gus said to Liam Heart:

    “It seems that you and your guards, are very close.”

    Lee Ann Heart looked at Lee Ann and smiled:

    “I told him to go do his own thing and he had to stick around me.”

    Gu Si glared fiercely at Li An, with a look that seemed to say, You’re a guard, how dare you seduce your master?

    “I wonder what you were talking about?”

    “We talk about everything.”

    “I’d advise you, it’s best to keep your guards, at arm’s length.”

    Liam heartily chuckled:

    “Getting in good with the guard so he can take the knife for me, right?”

    Li An Xin laughed in her heart, Li An Xin was using what he had said before to refute Gu Si.

    Gus said with a puzzled look on his face:

    “That’s not what I meant.”

    “So what do you mean?”

    “Underlings, always have something, that shouldn’t be on their minds, and it’s not good for them.”

    Gu Si said in a serious manner, but his bejeweled body, how to look at it, does not look like some kind of a man who has been through a lot.

    His words were nothing more than wanting to show his maturity and stability in front of a beautiful woman.

    “You’re so cute.”

    “Huh? Oh, you mean the underlings, they sure are cute.”

    “No, I’m talking about you, Mr. Valley, you’re cute.”

    Gu Si froze, he didn’t expect that Li An Heart would praise him so bluntly for being cute.

    “Well, you buy me a drink, go to the most expensive restaurant in town and drink the most expensive wine.”

    Liam Heart stood up.

    “What? You don’t want to buy me a drink anymore?”

    “How come? Go away.”

    The two walked out of the tavern, and the reaction of Liam’s heart was unexpected.

    He hadn’t expected her to agree so readily to go for a drink with Gus.

    A few moments later, the three of them arrived at the most expensive restaurant in the city and asked for an elegant room.

    “Mr. Gu, since you want to play, call all your friends, male and female, to join in the fun, why? Don’t you have any friends?”

    Gu Si’s face, slightly flushed.

    “The jungle is a dangerous place, people are unpredictable, I only trust myself.”

    It seems that he was brought up to not trust anyone.

    “It seems that you’re really lonely, so I’ll be your friend.”

    With her characteristic enthusiasm and cheerfulness, Li Anxin enlivened the atmosphere, which was originally somewhat dull.

    She seemed to be really enjoying herself, spending time with Gus.

    Her attitude, as if to say:

    “You want a drink? Fine, I’ll accompany you to the end! Since we’re going to have fun, let’s have fun!”

    Soon, a sumptuous table of wine and food filled the table.

    From these dishes, it was clear that Gus was a swashbuckling cockney.

    “This wine, a pot costs fifty taels of silver.”

    Gus bragged, and Liam’s heart exclaimed in exaggerated surprise:

    “I’ve never drank before, such expensive wine! Thank you, Mr. Gu, I’ll be sure to savor it, and yes, pour a glass for my guards as well.”

    She didn’t wait for Gu Si to answer, so she picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Li An.

    “Sword Protector, have a drink too, this wine is expensive, don’t waste it.”

    “I’ll check first.”

    Li An took out a silver needle and carefully examined the wine and food, and although Gu Si was a little dissatisfied, Li An heart said with a smile:

    “Mr. Gu, you wouldn’t poison the wine and food, would you? Doing that would warrant a beating!”

    “What do you take me for? Even if I don’t poison, there are still women that are willing to throw themselves at me.”

    Li Anxin smiled sweetly, her smile, charming and moving, even Gu Si, also looked a little infatuated.

    “I knew it, you’re not that kind of person, come on, let’s drink.”

    The three raised their glasses and shared a drink.

    Liam Heart finished his glass of wine, and said with intent:

    “It’s too bad that it’s just the three of us drinking such good wine, the guards outside!”

    She’s actually going to call the guards of Valex, to come in and have a drink with them.

    Gu Si instantly looked displeased.

    One of the guards stepped forward and said:

    “We don’t have to, we have to protect the male.”

    Liam heartily chuckled:

    “Are you really protecting the male?”

    Her tone, meaningful, and the guard was dumbfounded.

    Usually, they just followed Gu Si to eat and drink, so how could they be considered protection?

    Liam Heart said gently to Guise:

    “Mr. Gu, don’t think too much, let’s all have a drink together and liven things up, come on, all sit down.”

    The guards looked at each other, not knowing what to do, they all looked at Gu Si, waiting for his instructions.

    Li An heart showed a disappointed look, Gu Si saw this and had to nod his head in agreement.

    The four guards, which walked over to the table and sat down.

    “Here, I’ll pour everyone a drink.”

    Li An Xin picked up the wine jug and poured wine for the guards, a hint of sympathy in her eyes.

    She had been an escort once, and she could understand, how these guards felt.

    “Come on, everybody, cheers!”
