"If I don't let her leave, am I really supposed to sell my body and go with her?"
Aoqian stared coldly at Song Xiwei and questioned her.
Song Xi coughed slightly, "Aren't you old acquaintances..."
“We’re not that close.” Aoqian said dejectedly, his anger threatening to erupt.
"Alright, alright, if we're not close, we're not close. You've already chased her away, I can't very well ask you to bring her back. It's just that you were too harsh on her just now. Taking that whipping is nothing to me..."
Before Song Xiwei could finish speaking, Ao Qian glared at her coldly, "Do you think I care that you'll get whipped?"
Song Xiwei: "???"
Ao Qian turned his face away and said coldly, "You are my only subordinate. She hit you in front of me. How can I save face?"
Song Xiwei nodded in agreement: "You have to consider the owner before you beat a dog. I can understand why you're unhappy."
"You!!" Ao Qian was so angry at Song Xiwei's explanation that he choked on his words, "Shut up!"
Song Xiwei closed her mouth, but her eyes darted around.
He had originally intended to lure the snake out of its hole, but now, instead, he had attracted Aoqian's fiancée, who was then chased away by Aoqian.
Plans can't keep up with changes.
The innocent infected people in those villages and towns were still waiting to be rescued, and Song Xiwei was caught in a dilemma.
Seeing that she was frowning and silent, Aoqian's anger had not subsided. Instead, he had a question that bothered him and he wanted to ask Song Xiwei for confirmation: "Aren't you angry that I didn't tell you I have a fiancée?"
Song Xiwei pointed to her mouth: "Can I speak now?"
Aoqian sighed, wondering why he had to bring that up.
Aoqian didn't want to talk to Song Xiwei anymore.
Turning her head, Song Xiwei walked around to face him. "You've been hiding a lot from me, and besides, this is your personal privacy, so I don't have the right to be angry."
After hearing her explanation, Aoqian's expression softened slightly, but his tone remained harsh: "Song Xiwei, remember this: you are my only partner. From now on, if you have any questions, you can ask me directly. You also have the right to be angry with me, understand?"
Song Xi nodded blankly, as if she understood, yet also as if she didn't.
But who cares, as long as Aoqian doesn't cause trouble.
Aoqian took in her bewildered expression.
Forget it, why should I bother arguing with a blockhead like her?
Besides, they were just partners. The reason he minded that Song Xiwei wasn't angry about Ruoliao's existence was simply because he didn't want any distance between himself and Song Xiwei.
Since we are partners in life and death, we must trust each other.
Thinking this way, he seemed to have found an excellent reason for his series of unusual reactions.
Song Xiwei was completely unaware that Aoqian had gone through a mental struggle and even found an excuse between her and Aoqian.
Her mind is now completely occupied with how to dispel the demonic energy.
After Aoqian regained his composure, he said to Song Xiwei, "I also have a magic weapon like Ruoliao."
Song Xi looked at him with slight surprise: "Young Master, get to the point!"
“If we activate the magic weapon without using demonic magic, the effect will be slightly weaker, but it should still be usable. I can help you dispel demonic energy,” Ao Qian said earnestly, gazing into Song Xi’s slightly bewildered eyes.
Song Xi was slightly stunned. "Really?"
“Hmm,” Aoqian nodded, unable to resist reaching out to smooth Song Xiwei’s furrowed brows. “You’ve been frowning all day. It’s a pity it’s too cold here, there are no mosquitoes or flies to trap you.”
Song Xiwei didn't take Aoqian's joke to heart at all; the most important thing now was to save those innocent people.
She excitedly grasped Aoqian's hand, "Then let's hurry and rescue them!"
