Li Yancheng stared into his clear and delicate eyes, and shook his head with a smile, "No, I love to eat it. After you left, I asked the imperial kitchen to add more chili peppers to my meals every day. I got used to it over time and fell in love with the taste of chili peppers."
Hearing his words, the curve of Yan Xi's mouth slowly lowered. Looking at the man whose heart and eyes were filled with him, he couldn't help but wonder how this man had been living after he left.
I think it must be very hard.
Thinking of him, Yan Xi couldn't help but think of Xiao Jingwen.
They were both emperors, and I died before them. They both lived alone for so long. They must have been very sad in the days without me...
Yan Xi stood on tiptoe and kissed Li Yancheng. She held his shoulders and looked at him with wet eyes as she said, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for leaving you there alone."
Li Yancheng pursed his lips and smiled faintly, "It doesn't matter. Now I have found you, right? And I have achieved immortality. As long as you can live forever with me, we can be together forever."
"Immortality..." Yan Xi's rosy lips trembled, gradually fading and turning pale. He loosened his hand and fixed his gaze on the table of dishes, trying to hide his panic. "We will be together forever."
But this can only last forever.
They can't last forever.
Because he had a mission, once he completed it, he would not be able to stay.
Li Yancheng had been the emperor for so long that he had a strong ability to read people's expressions. He immediately noticed that something was wrong with Yan Xi's expression and began to feel uneasy. He suddenly held Yan Xi's hand tightly and asked, "Yan Xi, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing. I'm just a little worried. Demons are in power now. As sorcerers, you and I should take it as our responsibility to exorcise demons and fight against the devil. But it's very difficult to win nowadays, so... I dare not easily guarantee that I can live forever." Yan Xi lowered her head and dared not look at him. Her heart beat faster. She was afraid, afraid of leaving him.
Li Yancheng listened, feeling choked up and uncomfortable. "You can choose not to step forward and leave it to me."
Yan Xi shook his head, his eyes smiling but tears glistening. "I can't do it, Prince. I can't let you go into danger alone. I can't bear to have all the abilities and watch the world turn into purgatory. Besides, their ancestors were once the people you fought so hard to protect. You worked day and night to handle government affairs and create a prosperous era, all for the sake of protecting the people of the world and ensuring that the people live and work in peace and contentment. I can't let their descendants suffer the bullying of demons."
Li Yancheng looked at the young man in front of him who was speaking so clearly. Unconsciously, he felt a sharp pain in his heart, "You..."
His throat tightened and his voice trembled. He took a deep breath, lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Yan Xi, I have discovered that whether in the Li Dynasty or now, you always put the people first. I don't know why you do this, but I think you have the same concern for the world as I do. Just like when I wanted that position, my original intention was to seek peace in the world and prosperity for the people. This is your belief. I shouldn't say anything, but I hope you can put me on the same level as them. I don't want to lose you again."
"No, you are the first." The soft light in Yan Xi's eyes was bright. He picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs with chopsticks, shook it, and said with a smile: "No one is more important than you, because I don't want to not be able to eat the food you cook."
Yan Xi ate it, and the familiar taste lingered on his tongue. His eyes lit up, "Hmm... delicious! Your cooking is still the best for me."
Li Yancheng looked at the person who looked very satisfied because of the delicious food, and the discomfort in his heart dissipated a little. "As long as it tastes good, I can make it for you every day."
"Okay, then I won't be polite." Yan Xi raised his eyebrows and simply continued eating.
"Yeah." Li Yancheng nodded, his eyes fixed on him, unwilling to move away for even a second.
Never mind, it wasn't easy for him and Yan Xi to be where they are today. If Yan Xi... the worst that could happen is that he would just wait for him for another thousand years.
The news that Li Yancheng was giving Yan Xi special treatment soon reached Old Master Lin's ears.
He sneered as he read ancient books in the room wearing reading glasses.
Let him be proud for a few more days. When he finds an opportunity, he will definitely continue to implement his plan and make sure that this brat will never see the ancestor again!
"By the way, we have been staying in Yanjing for some time, and it is time for us to set off back to the capital. You go and make the arrangements and leave tomorrow." Old Master Lin raised his eyes and said to the old butler.
The old housekeeper said: "Yes, I will do it right away, but the old ancestor..."
Old Master Lin: "I'll talk to him during dinner."
The old housekeeper said: "Okay."
In the afternoon, as the sun came out, Li Yancheng and Yan Xi basked in the sun in the yard.
Yan Xi handed him the technique and said, "Although you are highly skilled in martial arts, we will be facing demons and monsters in the future. Therefore, I have selected a technique suitable for you to practice. From today on, you will practice it accordingly to avoid being exposed in front of the Lin family. I believe that with your ability, you will be able to fully comprehend it."
No...don't ask me, I probably don't understand it either, QAQ.
But it’s definitely not that he has a low IQ, absolutely not!
