Ishtar felt annoyed.
How could he do this to her?
What if it scares people?
Ishtar immediately coaxed her, "You're my fiancée. You don't have to apologize to me. I just said something out of turn. Please don't cry, okay?"
Yili looked at Ishtar with tearful eyes and shook her head stubbornly: "It was Baideli who offended you just now. I should apologize to you."
Baideli looked at her fragile back and saw that she had resisted and taken on all this for him. The overwhelming sense of guilt was about to drown him.
"Princess, I shouldn't have been so rude."
Baideli handed Ishtar an exquisite dagger inlaid with gems and said, "Please punish me for my disrespect, Mr. Ishtar."
Yili looked at Ishtar.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Looking at the two people in a stalemate, Yi Li could only use his ultimate move.
She fainted beautifully.
When he fell down and was about to have a deep kiss with the earth, Ishtar quickly caught him in his arms. Baideli's subconsciously stretched out hand froze in the air.
In order to avoid exposing himself, Yili actually fainted.
Alas, in the end it all depends on yourself.
Ishtar's sharp eyes fell on Baideli. "She is my fiancée, Knight Commander Baideli. I hope you can see your place clearly. I don't want her to become so pitiful and embarrassed because of you. You are truly unworthy of your duties."
Facing Ishtar's rebuke, Baideli said nothing, standing there as silent as a pillar.
He watched Ishtar leave with Yili in his arms without looking back.
The originally sumptuous and magnificent dinner naturally ended in a bad mood.
When the princess's envoys saw this scene, they had complicated expressions. They looked at the lonely and desolate Knight Commander Badli in the distance, but didn't know what to say.
Could it be that fate thought that Knight Commander Badli actually had such thoughts about the princess, or that he actually lost control for the princess and personally violated the chivalric code.
No one expressed their inner shock, because they all understood that it had already happened, and no matter what they said, it would not change the fact that made them feel devastated.
I feel full even without eating tonight.
Because they were all full from eating this big melon.
Facing the complicated looks from all of them, Baideli no longer had the energy to care about them.
He was in a daze and didn't know how he returned to his room.
He fell on the soft silk bed and covered his eyes.
Faith, dignity, and personality were completely shattered tonight by my momentary impulse.
He no longer cared what those people thought of him.
His only concern was for Her Royal Highness the Princess.
She thought that her momentary impulse had caused her to fall into a coma, and she could only watch her being taken away by Ishtar, unable to do anything. Even the right to care was cruelly deprived her.
When she wakes up, will she be disappointed in herself?
The brave and mighty knight turned out to be a despicable villain with evil intentions.
He didn't dare to think about what she would think of him.
Confusion like a dark fog trapped him tightly, and the thought of despair turned into a giant hand, tightly gripping his heart.
Just when he didn't know how to go next, he suddenly remembered the monster's words.
"If you really want to know my identity, come to the back garden at midnight when the first rays of the moon shine on the flower bed. I will be waiting for you in the pavilion."
Ishtar looked outside at the clock tower rising into the clouds.
The moonlight broke through the clouds, casting a mysterious veil over the back garden.
The clock struck twelve at midnight.
Be rational, Baideli, it is not a good thing, don't be fooled by it.
But what if what it says is true?
He must do something for her.
Baideli tried hard to ignore the true and despicable thoughts in his heart, and added a high-sounding reason and weight to his hesitation.
He wanted to protect the princess, he wanted to save her from Ishtar.
Her Royal Highness the Princess needs her help.
…
Yili was lying on a big bed as soft as a cloud. When she woke up slowly, she saw Ishtar sitting beside her bed in a black dress, reading a book. The characters in the book were colorful and difficult to understand.
But there were realistic drawings of plants on the pages of the book. Yi Li took a few sneak peeks at them and roughly guessed what was going on.
Is this a book on identifying plants?
Ishtar noticed that Yili had woken up, and when he looked up, he saw Yili looking at him with his round eyes.
He saw a hint of pity in her eyes.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell again?"
Ishtar asked her with concern.
Yi Li shook his head: "No."
"Are you still blaming yourself for what happened to Knight Commander Baideli?"
After Ishtar finished speaking, he saw Yili lower his head and knew that he had guessed correctly.
He gently stroked Yili's head and soothed her, "It's okay. I shouldn't have said that. I knew your difficulties, but I still treated you like that and made you so anxious. I should apologize to you."
Anyone who heard Ishtar's words would be moved.
Unfortunately, the person in front of him was Yi Li.
Yili has no heart.
A man's mouth is a lie. He may say nice things, but he may not mean them in his heart.
However, this time she managed to get through it without any danger.
If the two of them really started fighting, she would be the one who suffered.
"No."
Yili looked at Ishtar in disbelief: "You actually think that, Mr. Ishtar, you are really too kind."
Ishtar smiled upon hearing this: "Kind? You're the first person to think I'm kind."
Yi Li was speechless when she heard this, her face flushed red with helplessness and panic, and she was so shy that she didn't know what to do.
"Is it something I said that's wrong? I shouldn't have praised you..."
Yili's helpless look amused Ishtar, who took the initiative to interrupt Yili's lies.
The smile on Ishtar's face grew wider. "I'm very touched by your compliments. I really like how you see me."
Yili looked at Ishtar in front of him, who exuded the sweet smell of courtship, and didn't know how to express his thoughts at the moment.
I really can't go on acting anymore.
She was disgusted by her own hypocritical performance.
She quickly pulled up the quilt, covered her face, and hid herself inside.
Help! I feel like I'm going to dig a huge villa out of my toes.
She suddenly remembered that she seemed to be still broadcasting live.
At that moment, Yili felt what social death meant.
She closed her eyes in despair and forced a bitter smile.
Damn it, what on earth is she thinking?
It's okay, Yili, you are doing this to complete the task. They must know that you are acting and may even praise her acting skills.
What if a director is impressed by her acting skills and invites her to be a star? Wouldn't she be very successful in the future?
Yili comforted himself in a self-deprecating way, feeling so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into the ground.
Ishtar thought she was being shy and didn't dare look at him again.
