Leng Youlan tilted backward, trying to shake off his grip. “Let go! I haven’t walked enough. You can go back by yourself.”
Lei Tianyi continued to hold onto her. He didn’t want to speak, afraid he couldn’t control his anger. How could she want to leave him after he had been so good to her? He wanted to see what color her heart was. In this world, perhaps only she, this reckless girl, dared to ignore his authority.
Under the yellowish light, two slender and beautiful figures stared at each other for a long time.
“I”
“I” As if the silence lasted a century, unable to be endured by the man and woman facing each other, they spoke simultaneously.
“You go first”
“You go first” Again, they spoke in unison, and quick embarrassment reddened their equally outstanding faces.
Leng Youlan blinked her lively big eyes. Looking at her beautiful face, the raging fire in his heart was miraculously extinguished, replaced by a faint cold air.
Lei Tianyi knew she was hinting, “What did you just say to Xiu?” Remembering Xiu’s flushed face and her sweet smile, the just-extinguished anger reignited.
“I’m asking what you and Xiu just talked about. I don’t want to repeat it a third time.”
“Xiu reported to you? How despicable! Sneaky guy! If he lacks ability, why tell on others…”
Unable to tolerate her rambling, “No report” “Just talking about him, what? No report?” Lei Tianyi nodded slightly at her shocked face.
“Oh, he’s not bad then. Seems he understands I was doing this for everyone’s good…”
Lei Tianyi hated her praising others and quickly retorted, “He just didn’t have time.”
Even if I had time, I wouldn’t tell anyone! That’s my shame. If people knew the mighty Dark Emperor’s personal bodyguard Yuan Xiuxi couldn’t beat a little girl, where would my face be?)
“How do you know I talked to Xiu?” “Monitors”
Had he been watching her supposedly perfect escape plan in the monitors all along? So he knew everything she did? Oh no! Stupid Leng Youlan, knowing there were monitors, yet making such a low-level mistake. Where was her usual cleverness?
“Oh, good. I’ll tell you first, so he doesn’t falsely accuse me. Actually… do you think I was wrong?” Her lively big eyes blinked, looking at Lei Tianyi.
