I couldn’t help but blush, immediately retorting: “Who, who… who was staring at you? Don’t be so narcissistic!”
“No?”
Qi Chenxuan’s face showed a mischievous smile, raising an eyebrow: “If you weren’t staring, why is your face so red?”
“I, I…”
I was momentarily speechless, puffing out my cheeks to argue: “I, I drank too much last night. The alcohol hasn’t completely worn off yet!”
“Is that so?”
Qi Chenxuan’s thin lips curved, staring directly at me. I couldn’t help but lower my head guiltily, avoiding his gaze…
What are you two doing
Due to time constraints, we went directly to West Mountain. When we arrived, we saw the Emperor and Lan Qiye walking out of their carriage. Remembering our previous decision, I nimbly jumped down from the carriage and quietly approached Lan Qiye.
Lan Qiye saw me, a flash of surprise crossing his eyes, but quickly returning to calm, then raised an eyebrow: “So? Have you considered it?”
I quickly nodded: “That’s right, I accept your proposal, but you must be responsible for convincing everyone!”
Lan Qiye lightly curved his lips, smiling in agreement: “Okay!”
Seeing him agree so easily, I couldn’t help but be suspicious: “Are you really that confident you can convince the Emperor to agree to the alliance? And Qing Han might not even agree, right?”
Lan Qiye laughed dismissively: “Leave all these matters to me to handle. As for you, just be prepared to return to Jing Yue with me!”
“But…”
Lan Qiye immediately followed up with a puzzled question: “Is there still some problem?”
I hesitated for a moment, and finally asked him uneasily: “That is, you will send me back, right?”
Lan Qiye couldn’t help but laugh: “So you were worried about this. Don’t worry, when the time comes, as long as you want to come back, I absolutely won’t force you in the slightest!”
“Promise?
As if afraid he might go back on his word, I promptly stretched out my hand.
“Promise!”
Lan Qiye smiled and stretched out his hand in response.
“What are you two doing?”
The moment their palms touched, Qi Chenxuan’s cold voice suddenly sounded from behind.
“N-nothing!”
