The Legend of the Guardians of the East Gate
Ch. 156 - Men are dangerous to me.
The young man took the opportunity to take out a thousand gold coins moving in his money pouch, and handing them into the woman's hands made Zhou Lu Zi so happy, while squeezing Zhi Yuan's fingers, he said, and the woman's fingers were like they were so at home in Zhi Yuan's hands.
All looked satisfied, and they ended up saying goodbye to Zhi Yuan and Zhou Lu Zi.
"Thank you, foster mother, please take care of my lover, and you, I hate you so much" Yun Mei looked at Wang Lee and hugged Zhi Yuan, went with her friends.
"You see, you just crossed your line," Zhou Lu Zi said looking at Wang Lee.
Madam I'm sorry, this won't happen again, give this stupid waitress one more chance" said Wang Lee, and began to hate Zhi Yuan so much, and the manager of the diner brought the sum of their bills, approaching his third table.
"400 gold coins" said the restaurant manager,
Zhou Lu Zi nodded, took out his money bag and handed it to the manager of the restaurant and looked like the man was so happy to accept it, and returned some of the money.
"You're a pretty rich cultivator, aaahhh, his fingers wanted to touch back Zhi Yuan's fingers but came to a halt as several people entered the third floor of the inn.
Zhou Lu Zi's face turned pale when he saw an old man entering the third floor with some of his comrades, the old man was a former defense minister. The woman lowered her face slightly because she did not want to be recognized being in that place with two young men.
Zhi Yuan who was aware of the change in the woman's face, flicked the sleeves of his wide robe and raised it so naturally covered Zhou Lu Zi's face from the old minister's gaze that looked around for a moment.
Zhi Yuan took out a white veil, and handed it to Zhou Lu Zi, who looked back calmly lowered his face, received the veil given to Zhi Yuan and wore a veil that covered his nose down, which he said, with hurry.
"Son Wang took out the imperial carriage and waited for us two hundred meters away from this place" Zhi Yuan said.
"cih.. what are you doing, dare you order me, I'm level 4, and you just...
"Comforter Wang.." said Zhou Lu Zi in a slightly high tone, making Wang Lee quickly duck.
"Do all his orders, now!" said Zhou Lu Zi and the young man immediately left his two.
"Your Majesty.. Now that we go, your imperial ring please let go," Zhi Yuan said standing near Zhou Lu Zi.
Zhou Lu Zi did all the young man's words and his face was still slightly lowered, Zhi Yuan quickly put on the pair ring on the woman's index finger and put on another one on the thumb of his own hand and both stepped away from their table.
The former defense minister who was laughing along with his comrades gazed towards the two, his laughter vanished staring into the eyes of Zhou Lu Zi who was hand in hand with Zhi Yuan.
Both passed the minister to the stairs,
"wait!!! madam, may I see your face" said the minister standing towards Zhi Yuan.
The young man paused for a moment and stepped closer towards the old minister, Zhou Lu Zi just lowered his head behind Zhi Yuan's back, squeezing the young man's fingers.
"ehemmm... wife? right, of course you're husband and wife, I'm sorry young man, I just thought if your wife was my daughter's friend" the old minister said so politely, seeing that Zhi Yuan and Zhou Lu Zi clothes were extremely expensive clothes.
"Your master looks to be of high quality, but so low in ethics, you shouldn't even look at such a woman, let alone a married woman, please mention your surname," Zhi Yuan said, made the old man swallow his saliva and slightly back off.
"aaahhhhh... already...young man, forgive my mistake, I'm just so shocked, please forget what I did," said the former Old Minister and Zhi Yuan died at the restaurant, both of them stepped through the streets with the eyes of the old minister who always watched over the two until they were not seen again.

Zhou Lu Zi took off the veil, stepped foot ahead of Zhi Yuan, his face looked so upright and solemn, his eyes glaring occasionally at the stars in the dark sky, so much so he thought, his eyes glaring at the stars in the dark sky, the woman took her breaths deeply many times.
"Zhi Yuan, why are you quiet? shouldn't it be asking me why I'm nervous like this" Zhou Lu Zi said, stopping and turning to look at the young man who was just speechless.
"Your silence frightens me Zhi Yuan, if in the Peach Pavilion I still understand her because we are drunk, but today when you put on the couple's ring, and calling me wife made me in another world, because you first mentioned that name to me, even the late Emperor did not have time to call me that, I was so lost, I was so overwhelmed, almost hugging you, and giving up life to live that beautiful name for you, near you I changed without being able to control again, I became naked so innocent, fragile, fragile, even I'm not ashamed to ask you for money, to be honest with my natural desires, sometimes I purposely give up on you, things I never do for others, she said, in the end I realized you were a very dangerous man to me Zhi Yuan, and did you know the worst thing about it? although I know you don't have feelings for Yun Mei, but for a second I don't even care about my foster daughter's feelings anymore, I'm a really bad mother Zhi Yuan," Zhou Lu Zi took a slow breath, shaking his head a few times.
Zhi Yuan stared around for a moment, his greenish eyes lowered, his teeth draped like he had no answer to the woman who looked so helplessly full of guilt, and the young man hugged Zhou Lu Zi, his eyes were all over him, and the woman just quietly let her body like gushing in the young man's arms, with such a chaotic mind.
"it's okay," said Zhi Yuan, gently rubbing the back of the woman's head made the woman close her eyes even more.
"Losing control is not a good thing Zhi Yuan, given my current position," Zhou Lu Zi said with a face so solemn, closing both of his lips while nodding a few times.
"What are we gonna do now?" zhou Lu Zi asked, making Zhi Yuan speechless, and letting go of his embrace, but was held back by the woman.
"You don't have the answer to my question, do you?" zhou Lu Zi asked, the woman only looked into Zhi Yuan's eyes avoiding the woman's eyes, Zhou Lu Zi smiled so with a sigh of sadness,
"He didn't answer all my outpouring of feelings, meaning he didn't want me, his heart was already in the possession of another woman, I was really very disappointed, and had to end all of it before it got out of control again, only one regret I have, why is there a woman who preceded her melted her heart, if only I had known her more when I first met at the foot of Huanlun Mountain, maybe now I'm the happiest woman, huh...." inner Zhou Lu Zi, exhaled with his lips slightly opened while smiling blandly
"Although disappointed but at least you've been honest, hahaha... You can see right? when you give me so much pain, the bottom of my heart still wants to defend you, justify your actions, aahhh I don't believe this, for God's sake," said Zhou Lu Zi slightly away from Zhi Yuan, raising his head so that his eyes would not let out water, slightly shaking in disbelief
"It's enough Zhi Yuan, I'm so glad you didn't lie just to please me, or to benefit from my body, from now on forget what's gone by, there is nothing special between us, we are just people who meet for a moment at the intersection, if we meet again, never look at me again, after all my life today is not just a matter of the heart, and also so many men are around me, it is not difficult for me to deal with this kind of business," Zhou Lu Zi said, as if he had made the right decision.
Zhi Yuan slightly kept his distance, though,
"Your Majesty, as always you are so hard on yourself, always able to think so maturely and logically, love is only a trivial thing that must be ignored by a great leader like you, he said, about just that momentary person, I will always remember your advice," said Zhi Yuan, returning to his comfort man's style of speech.
Zhou Lu Zi nodded,
"We've ended up here, don't ever follow me again" said the woman and removed Zhi Yuan's ring, letting her fall on the street, get inside the horse carriage and leave Zhi Yuan standing with his eyes closed.
