Ye Jinxing drew his sword, his face tense.

Although he was not as prejudiced against Pei Xiuyan as before after hearing Fei Wan's words, he could still feel the danger clearly.

Pei Xiuyan also stood there holding a sword. Based on his experience of fighting with him just now, he was definitely no match for Pei Xiuyan.

But he couldn't retreat except to protect Miss Luo.

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Fei Wan didn't care about anything else and ran out to stand between them.

"I'll go back with you."

The girl bit her lip and looked at Pei Xiuyan, standing between them. Her tone was sincere, as if her heart and eyes were filled with him.

It was like this before...

Let him believe her.

Pei Xiuyan's mouth curled up into a mocking arc, and his eyes fell on Ye Jinxing as if he was looking at a dead person.

"General Ye's son, Ye Jinxing, was skilled in swordsmanship at a young age. Unfortunately... General Ye betrayed the country and his entire family was executed."

Just one simple sentence condemned the entire Ye family.

"Pei Xiuyan! If you have anything to say, come at me. My Ye family has been loyal and brave for generations. Father would never do such a thing!"

Ye Jinxing couldn't restrain himself and was about to rush forward, but because Fei Wan was in the middle, he stopped.

"If I say it, it will be."

A very light low laugh was heard. The man was as beautiful as a jade under the moonlight, but he looked like a devil that had just crawled out of hell, which made people shudder.

"Your Majesty, this matter was caused by me. Young Master Ye did this out of concern for me. If Your Majesty wants to punish me, then punish me."

As soon as he took a step forward at night, his heart began to beat fast.

The man came up to her, reached out and pinched her chin, forcing her to look into his eyes, but his words were merciless.

"What about Gu Ruobu? Ye Jinxing is worried about you. He said it so kindly. It turns out that the second young lady of the Luo family likes this type..."

His fingers moved down and touched her neck, which was so cold that it sent chills down her back.

That delicate and fragile neck, in his eyes, seemed as if it could be easily crushed in the next moment.

"Pei Xiuyan! You're talking nonsense! Miss Luo and I are innocent!"

Ye Jinxing was so angry that he started yelling, but Pei Xiuyan seemed to be deaf to all this. He only had eyes for Fei Wan, wanting to see what her attitude was.

The girl said nothing, her stubborn eyes meeting his, causing him to soften his grip a bit.

At this time, he was still considering her thoughts.

He actually believed that she couldn't do that.

Finally he compromised.

Pei Xiuyan let her go, but there was no emotion in his eyes.

"Take her back. Young Master Ye is guilty of insubordination and should be thrown into the Heavenly Prison."

This was the maximum he could compromise.

"If it happens again, I can't guarantee that the person who came to save you will be able to stand here alive."

He leaned close to her ear and said in a low voice, "Do you want to leave me?"

Fei Wan looked up at him in surprise. He smiled, took her hand, and interlocked their fingers. It was clearly an ambiguous gesture, but he held her fingers tightly.

His fingers were clenched white, and the blood on the back of his hand, which had just solidified, cracked due to the force, and drops of blood fell.

Blood fell between the fingers of the two people holding each other, but he seemed unaware of it. He looked straight at Fei Wan, with a smile on his lips and a soft voice.

"I won't give you this chance. Since you said you love me, even if you die, you must die by my side."

He thought she would be scared and run away.

Even he himself hates him for being like this.

After being in darkness for many years, I long for sunshine.

So...she wanted to leave him, right?

But sorry, now that this beam of light is shining in, he has to keep it no matter what the consequences.
