Zhong Yan had no idea he was so optimistic; otherwise, she would have been more willing to teach him a lesson. Neither of them told the truth, clearly showing they didn't take her seriously.
Under such circumstances, it would be strange if she could maintain her good temper!
Besides, she never considered herself a good-tempered person, and she certainly wouldn't be polite to people unnecessarily! So, under the current circumstances, whatever he said was useless.
"Bao Jingye, have you thought this through?"
"Your Highness, King Qin Guang, since you already know, there's nothing more for us to hide! Things have come to this point, so perhaps you should..."
"Um?"
“Let’s go back to my hometown and take a look!” Bao Jingye said weakly. “After all, the underworld is currently leaderless. If you come back, you can help manage it.”
That sounds a bit guilty.
Jiang Xiaochen narrowed his eyes, his expression somewhat unpleasant. Wasn't it said that he couldn't go back at will? How come it's become that everything can be forgiven when it comes to him?
Tsk...
What exactly are these people up to?
Thinking about these things made me even more serious.
Bao Jingye felt increasingly miserable. How could he be wrong no matter what he said? Could it be that no matter what he did, it was wrong, and she had no intention of understanding him at all?
If that's the case, he can only sigh at his own misfortune.
Moreover, it's not just ordinary suffering!
After much thought, I decided to give up.
"Your Highness King Qin Guang, everything I said is true. You must believe me."
"..."
"Someone is waiting for you back home, someone is waiting for you."
"What if I don't believe you?!"
"I... I can't do anything." Bao Jingye simply started to act shamelessly, squatting on the ground and refusing to get up. His eyes looked increasingly pitiful, as miserable as could be.
Zhong Yan subconsciously took a step forward, then realized something and took a few steps back! He looked helpless. Was he pretending to be pitiful?
To actually use such a method is truly astounding!
She was quite curious about what he was trying to do in this state.
"Ahem, Master Ghost..."
"My dear aunt, please don't belittle me! I'm nothing but a nobody in front of you."
"you……"
"If you say that again, I will be utterly ashamed."
"..."
Zhong Yan remained silent. What could she say after he had already said that? It seemed a bit too much to continue! Interestingly, Bao Jingye looked much more pleasing to the eye now than before.
"Since you want to explain, why don't you tell us what exactly happened back then!"
"Um?"
"I'll ask, you answer." Zhong Yan quickly made a decision; she absolutely couldn't let her see anything, so she put on a confident and righteous expression.
Bao Jingye took a deep breath and composed himself: "Okay, ask me anything you want, I won't say a word."
Zhong Yan curled the corners of her lips. That's exactly what I wanted—no questions asked! Otherwise, where would I put my pride? Besides, in the current situation, it wouldn't be good for her to say anything more.
Tsk, that's not appropriate!
But where should we begin asking?
Logically speaking, since they were both completely clueless, it was really difficult to say anything. If they asked the wrong question, they'd give themselves away!
