Qianxi was clearly still in shock. After a moment of stunned silence, he got up from the ground and slowly made his way to us.
Qianxi glanced at me first, then shifted her gaze to Liu Lieyu and timidly asked, "Would another half month be alright?"
Liu Lieyu's cold gaze fell on Qian Xi, exuding an imposing aura without anger.
"Half a month, just half a month." With that, Qianxi turned and disappeared into the sea of stars.
"Let's go back." Liu Lieyu didn't care that Qianxi ran away, and pulled me away from Qianxi's bamboo house.
Half a month? Will the Green Silk Curse be lifted in half a month? My hands, hidden in my wide sleeves, clenched tightly. In half a month, Fei Yan can also transform into my appearance. If it really comes to that and I have to lose my virginity, I'll let Fei Yan do it...
Days passed by, and there were less than two months left until our grand ceremony. Various forces were getting restless, and Liu Lieyu was busy with the ceremony and also had to guard against the wolfish ambitions of various forces, so he rarely came to see me.
Tomorrow marks the half-month deadline since Liu Lieyu issued his death order.
In the past two weeks, Qianxi hasn't come even once. Tomorrow, will Qianxi really be able to solve this problem?
The next day, Huanzi woke me up. I rubbed my sleepy eyes and glanced out the window as usual. A torrential downpour was pouring down outside, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring in the sky, obscuring the time.
I sat up. I had been sleeping so soundly that the noise outside hadn't woken me up at all.
"What time is it now?" My vision gradually cleared. "Has Qianxi arrived yet?"
"It's late afternoon. Qianxi hasn't arrived yet." Huanzi helped me up, dressed me, helped me wash my face, and did my hair.
"Shenshi? So late?" I tilted my head up slightly to make it easier for Huanzi.
I seemed to be struggling all night, thinking that today's analysis might be able to break the curse on me. When I was sleeping, I seemed to hear the early birds singing.
I glanced outside the door; Qianxi should be here soon, after all, today is the final deadline.
After I finished dressing, I sat on the sofa in the living room and waited. To make things easier, I even left the bedroom door wide open while I waited for the analysis.
I was casually eating some snacks on the table and watching a boring TV series when suddenly there was some noise outside the door, which seemed to include the sound of someone talking.
"What's going on?" I immediately became interested, put down the walnuts in my hand, and walked towards the door.
A huge crowd gathered outside the door, and I immediately spotted Qianxi in the throng; her red dress was particularly eye-catching.
"Qianxi, what are you doing?" I shouted, and the crowd immediately made way for me.
"You've arrived. There's a suspicious person here." Qianxi ran up to me, shaking the bells on her feet, and pointed to an ordinary-looking guard in the center of the crowd.
I glanced at him; the young guard captain was average-looking, not ugly, but his features were nothing special—the kind of face you'd forget the moment you saw him.
"What's wrong with him?"
"He used a smokescreen."
"An illusion?" I glanced at the guard again, and suddenly remembered something. I had a feeling that this person's temperament was becoming more and more similar to Fei Yan's.
"Come here." I beckoned the young guard to come to my side.
The young guard, head bowed, trotted up to me, bowed, and cried out, "Your Majesty, I don't understand what this young master is saying."
Qianxi opened her mouth as if to refute something, but couldn't think of the right words, so she frowned, tugged at my sleeve, and shook her head at me.
I turned to Qianxi and smiled reassuringly, "Don't worry."
