A cold wind swept directly into the room, causing Yuan Jiang's loose black hair to flutter gracefully in the air, fully exposing her delicate and beautiful face. Her fox-like eyes were breathtakingly beautiful, bright and clear. She had a petite and graceful figure, wearing only a simple pink and white silk dress, yet she looked like a fox spirit who had stepped out of a painting.
Her fair and radiant cheeks were smudged with ash, her cold gaze revealing wariness and aloofness, and her delicate, luscious lips parted slightly: "Who are you? How do you know my name?"
Seeing the unfamiliar look in Yuan Jiang's eyes, Li Yanxi was visibly startled. Looking around and not seeing Lou Ji, he was momentarily bewildered. But his joy at seeing Yuan Jiang again was even greater. A delighted smile appeared on his face as he excitedly said, "Miss Yuan Jiang, I thought you and Young Master Lou..."
"I didn't expect you to still be alive. How have you been? What are you doing here? Where's Young Master Lou? Why isn't he with you?"
After Lou Ji and Yuan Jiang fell off the cliff, Li Yanxi and Jiang Yingyue searched for three days and three nights, but they could not find their bodies. Disappointed, they returned to the Li family. After all, Lou Ji was the young master of the Lou family, and the Li family sent many demon-hunting disciples to search, but there was still no news.
Fifteen years ago, after the death of the young master and madam of the Lou family, the Lou family mansion disappeared and no one knows where it is now. Therefore, Li Yanxi could not pass on the news to the Lou family and could only continue to send people to search for the whereabouts of Lou Ji and Yuan Jiang.
And Jiang Yingyue...
A hint of disgust flashed in Li Yanxi's eyes. Lou Ji fell off the cliff, and Jiang Yingyue fled in panic. After returning to the Jiang family, she never left the house again!
This was too strange. Although he had his doubts, he had no evidence and could only keep the matter to himself.
I never expected to see Yuan Jiang here today!
"Don't come any closer!" Yuan Jiang frowned in annoyance. Li Yanxi's barrage of questions left her completely bewildered, but seeing that he meant her no harm and even knew her name, she had no choice but to suppress her temper and say, "Why do you know my name? Also, I don't know any Young Master Lou, so don't try to claim any connection!"
Li Yanxi stood still, stunned for a moment, and squinted at Yuan Jiang. He couldn't help but wonder if Yuan Jiang had hit her head after falling off the cliff and forgotten everything.
Thinking of this, Li Yanxi's heart skipped a beat. His gaze at Yuan Jiang gradually became deep and dark. His well-defined fingers gripped the oil-paper umbrella tightly. After a few seconds of silence, he smiled.
He said, "I apologize for my abruptness, Miss Yuan Jiang."
"My name is Li Yanxi. I met you briefly once, and you may have forgotten it, but I have always kept it in my heart."
"I was so excited to see you again that I blurted out whatever came to mind."
Since Miss Yuan Jiang has forgotten Lou Ji, then let her forget him.
Lou Ji's fate is still unknown, so from now on he will take care of Miss Yuan Jiang!
He wants to marry Yuan Jiang!
Yuan Jiang remained wary: "Really?"
Li Yanxi smiled slightly, took out a pink silk handkerchief from her bosom, and handed it to Yuan Jiang: "Miss Yuan Jiang, look, isn't this yours?"
The handkerchief was embroidered with a lifelike little fox, and the character "Jiang" was embroidered on the fox's pink fur. Yuan Jiang grimaced, her tense nerves gradually relaxing, and took the handkerchief from his hand: "It really is mine."
The hidden demonic aura in the silk handkerchief also belongs to her.
Li Yanxi sat down close to Yuan Jiang and said, "Miss Yuan Jiang, you've lost a lot of weight these days."
"Really?" Yuan Jiang touched her face.
"Hmm, you've gotten even thinner. I wonder if I could have the honor of inviting Miss Yuan Jiang to my humble abode?" Li Yanxi turned his head, his deep gaze falling on Yuan Jiang's rosy and delicate lips, his Adam's apple bobbing slowly.
Yuan Jiang shifted her position to the side and shook her head in refusal: "No, I have to go home."
“Miss Yuan Jiang is a frail woman, it may not be safe for her to go out alone. How about I protect you and take you home?”
The servant behind him rubbed his eyes in disbelief before accepting that the shameless and persistent person in front of him was his young master. He couldn't help but boast in his heart: No wonder the young master was unwilling to go out to find a wife; it turns out he already had a woman he liked.
