"I..." Youxi bit her lip tightly, "If I had the strength, I wouldn't need to be afraid of him. I could make some decisions based on my own strength, but as you saw just now, my father forced me to marry, so I had no choice but to let you block for me for a while."

What You Xi didn't tell Mu Ruyue was that he said this not to avoid getting married, but to save her life...

After all, he owed Mu Ruyue a favor and couldn't just watch her being abused by the Demon Emperor.

But that man was too strong, and she was no match for him. Apart from saying these words, there was no other way...

However, although You Xi did not say these words, Mu Ruyue could imagine them.

That’s why she didn’t blame Youxi afterwards…

"Since I'm here to face him, I'm sure I can escape this disaster, so you shouldn't say these words."

"Human, don't worry. My father is not that stupid. After a while, he will see through our lies. So my words can only buy us some time, unless we make our fake play real, which is obviously impossible..."

As You Xi was speaking, a familiar breath rushed towards him from the front, causing him to shudder. He raised his head and saw the girl's cute baby face, and his heart was filled with ecstasy.

"Ali, why are you here?"

Concubine Li bit her lip lightly and walked slowly towards the two of them.

"Youxi, long time no see. I didn't expect that after so many years, you are still the same as before..."

Her eyes were dazed, and she seemed to see the young man walking through the flower fields many years ago.

Unfortunately, things have changed and they can never go back to the past...

"I came here to say congratulations."

There was a hint of bitterness in Concubine Li's heart.

Over the years, the Demon King doted on her, and she coveted the power at hand, but the man in her heart was always the boy from many years ago...

"Ali, I'm sorry that I failed to protect you before," Youxi said with some guilt, "but I heard that he treats you very well, so I feel relieved..."

Concubine Li felt a pain in her heart and smiled bitterly: "No matter how good he is, he is not you anyway..."

Besides, in that man's heart, she was just a plaything...

"Ali..."

Yuki was stunned.

To be honest, he and Concubine Li had a very good relationship. This girl was also his only friend. He hated himself for not being able to protect her, and blamed himself for many years...

However, apart from this, there is no other inappropriate feeling towards her.

So Concubine Li was totally wronged back then...

"Youxi..." Concubine Li murmured the name softly, staring at the handsome face of the boy infatuatedly, with a bitter smile on her pale face, "You have grown up, and you will eventually marry another woman..."

But she still couldn't let him go...

"Ali, why are you..."

"Actually, I just came to see you," Concubine Li secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and a smile appeared on her lips, "Okay, I should leave now, Youxi, take care."

After saying this, she wanted to walk past Mu Ruyue, but just as she reached Mu Ruyue's side, she suddenly took a few steps back and fell to the ground with a thud...

"Ali!"

At this time, You Xi was staring at the place where Concubine Li had just stood, and did not notice this scene.
