After coaxing the little girl to go back home first, Jiang Ranli finally met the Fourteenth Prince face to face for the first time after more than three years of separation.
The two times they met before, the first time, Fourteenth Prince wanted to tear her apart and swallow her, and the second time, Jiang Ranli was afraid of angering him and avoided him as much as possible. Strictly speaking, today was the first time they met face to face after more than three years of separation.
"Fourteenth Master, are you not angry anymore?"
Jiang Ranli felt strange. She knew Fourteenth Prince's temperament. He was a man of his word. How come he went from being furious to apologizing in just one day?
The Fourteenth Prince looked around with his beautiful eyes, and his handsome face was full of embarrassment. After a long while, he said, "I'm not angry anymore."
"Why?" Jiang Ranli asked. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
Fourteenth Prince's expression was confused for a moment, but he quickly gave the 'answer', "Why else? I'm just being magnanimous."
Hearing his words which were exactly the same as those of the Tenth Prince, Jiang Ranli's lips twitched. To be honest, she really didn't believe what the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince said. If they wanted to forgive her out of generosity, why would they have done that? The Fourteenth Prince even pushed her off his horse yesterday.
"Li, Li'er, I'm going to help my ninth brother relocate the disaster victims. You should have a good rest at home. I'll come to see you after I've dealt with things."
In order not to be exposed and to not disrupt his ninth brother's plan, the Fourteenth Prince left with these words and quickly slipped away.
Watching him leave in a hurry, Jiang Ranli raised her lips and smiled. No matter what the reason was, it was a good thing for her that the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince were no longer angry.
Since she traveled to the Qing Dynasty, they were one of her few friends. Being able to reconcile with them was something she had never dared to imagine. Now that they were no longer angry with her, she was incomparably happy.
Just as he was looking at the direction where Fourteenth Prince left and laughing, Jiang Ranli suddenly felt the temperature around him drop a little.
Is the scorching heat finally over and is it going to rain?
Jiang Ranli looked up at the sky, but the scorching sun was so bright that she couldn't open her eyes.
"The sun is still the same big sun, but why has the temperature dropped..."
Jiang Ranli squinted her eyes, waiting for her vision to clear up, but before she could finish her muttering, she saw a tall and slender figure appear in front of her.
"Fourteenth Master, didn't you say you would help Ninth Master resettle the disaster victims? Why are you back again?"
His vision had not yet recovered, so Jiang Ranli mistook the figure in front of him for the Fourteenth Prince.
Yinzhen stood with one hand behind his back, silently looking at the woman in front of him whose eyes were slightly narrowed, but who was extremely dazzling and extraordinary. His big hands behind his back were clenched into fists.
"Jiang Ranli, I don't want your next life."
Hearing the cold voice ringing in her ears, Jiang Ranli's back suddenly stiffened and her whole body felt cold. She suddenly opened her eyes, and her vision, which had just been a little unclear due to the sun's sting, gradually recovered. In her clear and bright pupils, the thin and tall figure of Yinzhen was reflected.
"Fourth, Fourth Master..."
Jiang Ranli spoke with difficulty. Looking at the person who was becoming clearer and clearer in her sight, she thought of the letter she left for him before she escaped.
She said that she could not repay him in this life, but she would repay him in the next life with a gift of grass and a ring.
Yinzhen frowned and stared at the pale Jiang Ranli. His expression was as cold and indifferent as ever, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
