"You want to ask for leave from me?" In the palace, Long Xunyi was surprised for a moment, but then he said calmly: "What makes you so nervous must be related to Sister An, right?"
Jing Aotian nodded.
"Speaking of which, Sister An hasn't been to the palace for quite some time. How has she been doing recently?" Long Xunyi said again.
"Everything is fine, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Jing Aotian replied indifferently.
Long Xunyi's dark pupils stared straight at him, his thin lips curled up slightly, as if smiling, but also as if he was just doubting, "Really? Since everything is fine, then your fake emperor cannot be allowed."
"Your Majesty, are you suspecting that I am lying?" Jing Aotian was not a fool. He could tell from Long Xunyi's words what he was suspecting.
Long Xunyi smiled indifferently, "I'm not doubting you, but I'm very sure you're lying. Since you said you took leave because of Sister An, then it must be because something happened to Sister An. But you told me everything was fine. Who could you fool with that? And from what I know about you, you're not the kind of man who would leave work to accompany a woman."
Although they fought openly and secretly for power, Jing Aotian never failed to do what he should do. So even if there were some problems between them, the Jing Aotian he knew was a man who clearly distinguished between public and private affairs. So even though Jing Aotian was one of his opponents, he didn't hate this man too much.
"It seems that nothing can be hidden from the emperor, but I did not lie to you, because Yu'er is indeed fine, but..." Jing Aotian paused for a moment before saying, "The one who is in trouble is Xing Mo."
"Xingmo? Is that Master Xingmo? The man Sister An brought back? What does he have to do with your taking leave? Aren't you doing this for Sister An?" Long Xunyi was a little confused by Jing Aotian's words.
Jing Aotian said that he was taking leave for An Tingyu. I thought something must have happened to An Tingyu, but Jing Aotian said that the person in trouble was not An Tingyu but Xing Mo.
What does this have to do with that?
A messy feeling.
"Your Majesty, this matter is somewhat complicated. To put it simply, Xing Mo lost his sight in order to save Yu'er. I have previously informed you of Xing Mo's true identity. After Xing Mo became blind, Feng Sang intervened and threatened to kill Yu'er. Therefore, Yu'er is going to Fuling Mountain to find a cure for Xing Mo. I am concerned for her safety, so I have decided to take leave and go with her."
"I see. Then go ahead! I'll let someone else handle the things you're doing. Protect Sister An. If anything happens to her, you'll be held responsible."
Jing Aotian bowed slightly and said, "I guarantee it with my life."
In the Zhuchun Pavilion of the An Mansion, An Tingyu stared at the man in front of her and said helplessly: "You actually asked for leave? Just because of my little thing?"
"What do you mean by that? Those two siblings are dangerous people now, so I have to be careful." One is a man who wants to compete for his woman, and the other is a woman who wants to kill his woman, so neither of them is a peaceful person.
An Tingyu glared at him with amusement, "Come on! To be frank, it's not just a jealous jar. Don't think I don't know."
Feng Sang might want him to care, but she knew that Jing Aotian cared more about Xing Mo, and was also afraid that she would agree to Feng Sang's conditions out of guilt. This was the reason why he wanted to follow her.
"My woman just understands me." Jing Aotian did not deny it.
"Hey, what are you touching with your hands?" An Tingyu rolled her eyes at him. It turned out that when Jing Aotian was speaking, his big hands had already hugged her and were restlessly wandering on her body.
"Oh, no, I've been discovered!" Jing Aotian pretended to be surprised, but there was no trace of feeling of being caught on his face. Instead, he smiled charmingly and dazzlingly.
"You! Can you please stop being lustful in broad daylight? It would be so embarrassing if someone saw us." An Tingyu rolled her eyes in annoyance, her tone very helpless, but she did not refuse and pushed him away.
"It's okay. Xing'er is accompanying Xi'er to school, Meizi is at the market buying groceries, and Dangyan has been sent by you to Fu Mansion to deliver New Year's goods. As for my guards, they are all outside the door. No one will disturb us."
An Tingyu's red lips curled up slightly, and her willow-shaped eyebrows raised lazily, "Why do I feel that you put a lot of thought into doing that with me? You even know where Dang Yan went?"
"It's unfair! This is a huge misunderstanding. It was Dang Yan who revealed his whereabouts to Yun Sheng. He said he was worried that you would be alone at home and your safety would be unsafe. But Dang Yan really cares about you!" At the end, Jing Aotian felt even more sour in his heart.
Although Dang Yan did not confess his feelings to An Tingyu and usually only did what a guard should do, anyone with a discerning eye knew Dang Yan's feelings for An Tingyu. He was not blind, not to mention that as long as something happened to An Tingyu, Dang Yan, who was usually indifferent and expressionless, would change his expression, so of course he saw it.
But Dang Yan was An Tingyu's bodyguard after all, so he couldn't say anything unless Dang Yan admitted it directly.
Hearing this, An Tingyu's beautiful eyes flashed with a deep feeling, and after a moment, she curled her lips and smiled: "Dang Yan is my guard. If you are jealous of him, then you will be jealous every day in this life."
"It's good to be jealous! Didn't you say that jealous people are healthy? And the more jealous I am, the more I want to keep you from getting out of bed. It's a happy thing, don't you think?" Jing Aotian blinked at her evilly, his words hinting at something.
"It's your head!" An Tingyu pushed his big hand away and glared at him angrily, "If you are jealous every day, won't it tire me to death? Can't you be more restrained? If you continue like this, I won't let you enter the room."
