    Lin Xiao saw that Chang Rong had understood what he meant and didn't want to waste time on such boring things anymore. He turned to Qin Yao and said warmly: "It's getting late, and the actors inside may have already dressed up. Let's go in early."  Come on, so as not to miss the show."

    Although Qin Yao had the intention of continuing to watch the fun, her face couldn't help but heat up when she heard Lin Xiao speak so softly and sincerely. She nodded quietly and let Lin Xiao lead him in.

    This Liuli Residence is arranged very cleverly. Although there is a main entrance, there is also a side door next to it. There is a secret passage exclusively for guests to enter and exit, presumably to protect everyone's privacy.

    There are two floors in Liuli House. In the middle of the first floor is a large stage. At this time, the curtains have been raised and gongs have been placed on the stage.

    The second floor is the elegant seating area, which just overlooks the stage on the first floor. There are eight rooms in total, forming a circle around the stage.  There is a gauze curtain hanging in front of each seat. This gauze curtain is produced in the Western Regions and is made of a rather strange material. It is hung in front of the seat. People outside cannot see clearly what is going on inside, but people inside can see what is going on on the stage.  Clear as day.

    Incense is burning inside the building, and the smell is quiet and strange. It is not as drowsy as the incense in brothels and other brothels outside, but it has a somewhat refreshing effect on the eyesight.  When going upstairs, the aisle is narrow and can only accommodate one person. There are heavy gauze curtains on both sides of the aisle, which completely blocks the passers-by.

    Qin Yao looked at it quietly and secretly marveled that Liuliju was so painstakingly designed to almost ensure that all the guests who came to the store would not be seen by outsiders. Even the guests watching the theater in the store had no way of knowing each other's details, as if it was specially arranged for trysts.  .

    She remembered a joke she had heard in her early years. It was said that a princess went to a certain theater with her face to listen to a play. She happened to see the prince-in-law and her lover coming out of the house. Their affair was revealed at the same time, and the whole city was suddenly noisy.  In the end, the prince-in-law was defeated and was beaten half to death by the princess. From then on, he never dared to secretly raise his beloved daughter, but the princess still indulged in her behavior and changed her appearance one after another.

    She couldn't help but laugh when she thought of this. If there had been such a wonderful place as Liuli Ju at that time, such embarrassing things would never have happened.

    The two of them entered the lounge from the corridor, and the store owner rolled up the heavy curtains that were originally hanging on the corridor, and lowered the thin gauze curtains of the booth.

    Qinyao raised her head and looked around curiously, and saw that there were couches and tables in the seating area. Behind the couch was a window. When she opened the window, she could see the rippling blue water of Nanyuan Ze.

    Turning around, I could see the stage downstairs through the hanging gauze curtain. When I wanted to sit here and listen to the play, I didn't delay in admiring the lake view outside the window. I don't know who came up with such an ingenious idea.  Really interesting and unique.

    I don¡¯t know who is sitting in the booth next to it. It is quiet and silent, but there are several servants coming in and out carrying kerchiefs, serving them very carefully.  Several elegant seats opposite were also occupied by vague figures, but because of the gauze curtains, their faces could not be seen clearly.

    Lin Xiao looked at Qin Yao from the side and saw that although she was sitting calmly, her black and white eyes could not help but curiously look at the surrounding situation. Her expression was cautious and a little cautious, like an alert kitten.  She couldn't help but feel a lot of pity in her heart, and said softly: "It's been a long time outside in the sun. Let's drink a cup of tea to cool down."

    At this time, Qinyao found some melon and fruit refreshments on the table. Among them was a bowl of cheese topped with fresh cherry blossoms dipped in ice. It was steaming with the slightest chill, which made it feel particularly refreshing to look at it.

    She glanced at Lin Xiao and remembered that when he was exterminating demons in Duke Lu's Mansion last time, he had sent Chang Rong to buy De Rong Zhai's cheese and fresh cherry blossoms for her. She didn't expect to see this snack in Liuli Ju today, and it was so beautiful.  The cherries in the bowl are very large and crystal clear, and the cheese aroma is particularly strong. It obviously takes more effort than Derongzhai's.

    Lin Xiao didn't miss the confusion in Qin Yao's eyes, and his face was hot. How could he have the nerve to admit that he had made all the arrangements according to Qin Yao's preferences today? The snacks on the coffee table were either something he had seen Qin Yao like to eat in the past or he had guessed.  Since Qinyao loves to eat, she made preparations early and kept them cool with ice cubes until she was ready.

    In addition to this cheese topped with fresh cherry blossoms, there are also many delicacies that Qinyao has never heard of, and the table is full.

    Among them, a plate of dim sum is carved into layers of small peonies, which makes people¡¯s index fingers move.  The other dish was made of small emerald green watermelons, which were round and very strange. There were also many fruits on ice. The most eye-catching one was a stack of red hard-shelled fruits on a crystal plate. Qinyao knew that they were called lychees.  , you can only eat it in the palace. Peel off the bright red shell, and you will find snow-white and crystal flesh inside. Take a bite and it will be sweet to your heart. She ate it once in Yuquan Mountain last time and thought it was delicious. Unfortunately, this thing is a tribute from Lingnan.  The tributes that came could only be eaten in the palace, and there was nowhere to buy them with money outside.

    Qinyao ate it with great interest, feeling that the stack of small watermelon snacks was the most delicious, and she swept the plate clean in a short time.

    Lin Xiao was drinking tea at the side and quietly watching Qin Yao eat. Seeing that Qin Yao liked to eat lychees, he put down the tea cup and put the crystal in his hands.Peel the lychees inside one by one and put them on the plate in front of Qinyao.  Qin Yao was still a little shy at first and refused to let Lin Xiao help her peel them. Later, she became so happy that she no longer cared about being pretentious and destroyed the plate of lychees.

    Lin Xiao was happy to see it, but he felt that it had been a long time since his mother died, and he hadn't been as happy as he was today.

    Seeing that Lin Xiao was only watching her eat, Qin Yao said without taking a bite, "The snacks are so good, why don't you eat them?"

    Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Because I still have business to do."

    With that said, he took out a small rosewood box with cloud and water patterns from his arms and placed it in front of Qinyao.
