Jiang Jingyu, who was sitting in the sedan chair, curled her lips after seeing the big hand in front of her. There was a smile in her eyes but her voice was still cold when she spoke.
"What does my life or death have to do with Master Liaochen? Master Liaochen, please go back quickly. I don't want to be an eyesore anymore and disturb Master Liaochen's meditation."
As soon as he finished speaking, the big hand in front of him tightened slightly.
Lechen still did not withdraw his hand, and his low and solemn voice reached Jiang Jingyu's ears through the curtain of the sedan chair.
"You have never been an eyesore to me."
Jiang Jingyu raised her eyebrows. As expected of a disciple of Master Jingkong with a high level of comprehension, he could use sweet words and rhetoric effortlessly.
But... she actually likes to listen to it.
However, she did not intend to go back with him so easily. The beautiful monk had left her alone for three whole days without saying a word. If she went back so easily, what if he stayed behind closed doors and repeated the old scene again?
Thinking of this, Jiang Jingyu said in a deep voice, "Since I'm not an eyesore, why did Master Liaochen avoid me for three whole days?"
Liaochen fell silent.
I don't know how to answer this.
Jiang Jingyu laughed self-deprecatingly: "I knew that the reason why Master Chen came after me was just to complete the task assigned by Master Jingkong."
"Please ask Master Lechen to go back and tell Master Jingkong that I appreciate his kindness, but everyone is destined to die. Since this day will come sooner or later, it doesn't matter to me whether it comes sooner or later."
After hearing her words, Lechen's heart suddenly ached.
"Princess, don't say such discouraging words. I'm here, and nothing will happen to you."
He already knew how to remove the curse from her body, so nothing would happen to her again.
"I know my own health condition very well. Master Liaochen, please go back. I am also going back to the palace."
"Princess, come back with me."
As Lechen spoke, he took two steps forward and stretched his hand towards Jiang Jingyu again.
"I've made up my mind to leave. Master Liaochen, there's no need to persuade me. I'm not a quiet person. Everything on Luoxia Peak these past few days has made me feel uneasy. If I'm not feeling well, why should I force myself?"
"I was negligent in this matter. Don't worry, Princess. It won't happen again."
After hitting a wall, Lechen finally realized how wrong he was. He forced himself not to see her or talk to her, thinking that he could forget everything between them. However, he ended up making her lose her only sense of security.
It was obviously his own paranoia that made him unable to overcome the hurdle in his heart, but in the end, it made her suffer.
Liaochen now has a clear goal. Since she has lost her sense of security, he will rebuild it, making it more solid and indestructible.
"Master Liaochen, don't blame yourself. I've made my words very clear. Master Liaochen, take care. You and I...will never meet again."
Jiang Jingyu's voice was cold, and she didn't give in even after Chen made a personal promise.
"Let's go."
Before the carriage set off, Lechen pulled open the curtain that separated the two of them, and jumped into the carriage under Jiang Jingyu's astonished gaze.
Liaochen bent down and walked towards Jiang Jingyu, and finally sat down beside her.
"Princess, this is Liaochen's fault. Liaochen shouldn't have deliberately ignored you and neglected your feelings because of his own paranoia, leaving you to endure the pain brought by the nightmare alone. Don't worry, this will never happen again. Liaochen will always be by your side."
Jiang Jingyu didn't say anything, but listened quietly to Lechen's heartfelt words.
Lechen stared at her profile and said seriously, "If the princess insists on returning to the palace, then Lechen will accompany her. Wherever the princess goes, Lechen will be there. Until the curse on the princess is removed, Lechen will definitely protect the princess."
A smile flashed across Jiang Jingyu's eyes very quickly. She turned her head to look at Lechen, and met Lechen's cautious gaze.
"Master Liaochen cares so much about my life, is he concerned about me?"
Liaochen looked at her steadily, and then uttered a word softly: "Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Jingyu suddenly moved closer to him: "But Master Liaochen and I have no relationship at all. I'm just one of the many pilgrims. Why would Master Liaochen care about me?"
Looking at the face so close to him, Lechen's pupils dilated slightly. He opened his mouth but didn't know how to answer.
Jiang Jingyu raised her red lips and looked at Lechen, whose face was stiff, with a half-smile. She slowly raised her hands that were hanging on his legs and finally covered Lechen's left chest.
Lechen's already accelerated heartbeat beat even faster the moment Jiang Jingyu covered him.
"Master Liaochen is upset, isn't he?"
Lechen didn't say anything, but his constantly sliding throat and evasive eyes showed his panic and helplessness at the moment.
Jiang Jingyu's hand, which was covering Chen's chest, gradually moved upwards, gently stroking his collarbone, his chin covered with stubble, and his delicate face like a demon.
"Master Liaochen, answer me, yes or no?"
As Jiang Jingyu asked, she continued to outline Chen's face with her fingers. Her eyebrows, eyes and nose became the property of her hands. Her fingers moved along with her sight, and when her sight fell on Chen's cracked thin lips, her fingers stopped.
Liaochen, who was already sitting upright, suddenly tensed up.
"Princess……"
Lechen's voice was hoarse and seductive, and his eyes were burning as he looked at Jiang Jingyu who was so close to him, feeling the warmth from her fingers.
"Shh, don't talk."
Jiang Jingyu hushed softly, lowered her eyes and slowly moved closer.
The soft and fragrant lips pressed against Chen's thin lips again, and the plump lips were squeezed and deformed the moment they touched.
Liaochen suddenly widened his eyes and clenched his fists, but he did not push Jiang Jingyu away. He let their lips touch each other and feel each other's warmth.
The next moment, a touch of moisture lightly brushed across Lechen's cracked lips. Stimulated, Lechen subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Jiang Jingyu stood up faster than him and hooked her arms around his neck, then sat her whole body on Lechen's legs.
Jiang Jingyu sat on Lechen's legs, hooked her arms around his neck tightly, and kissed his lips again under Lechen's astonished gaze.
But this time it was not just touching, she bit Xiachen's thin lips lightly with her pearly teeth. Xiachen opened the corners of his mouth slightly in pain, and Jiang Jingyu took the opportunity to slide her tongue tip in.
The moment their tongues touched, Lechen felt a numbness all over his body. When he wanted to grab his clothes, he grabbed Jiang Jingyu's dress in his hands.
Jiang Jingyu became more and more presumptuous, teasing Lechen wantonly. Lechen froze in place, forced to endure waves of numbness.
After teasing for a while, Jiang Jingyu withdrew from Lechen's mouth. She put her arms around Lechen's neck and looked at him straight.
"Master Liaochen, is it true or not?"
Lechen pursed his lips, said nothing, raised his hand and grabbed the back of Jiang Jingyu's neck, answering with action.
