The two wine bowls clinked lightly, and the two men drank the wine inside in one gulp.
"Go."
Feng Beichuan suddenly said something out of the blue.
What are you doing?
Li Chang'an raised an eyebrow, his gaze unfriendly.
"Of course, we're going to make that delusional guy give up!"
Feng Beichuan seemed quite serious, which left Li Chang'an both amused and exasperated—this man was far too naive.
There was no other way; this kind of thing had to be done without leaving any room for maneuver. Otherwise, even if Li Chang'an made a promise, it wouldn't put his mind at ease. Feng Beichuan felt that Ye Lingxiao was full of lewd talk and pretended to be innocent, and that he really had ulterior motives. If he didn't block the way, his Chang'an might fall into that person's trap one day.
“Go find Ye Lingxiao now and tell him to give up on the idea that you can never be with him in this lifetime.”
Li Chang'an was embarrassed. This guy was really a thoughtful little helper. He even came up with the words for him. It seemed that he had planned this all along.
Did I get scammed?
"Does it have to be this way?"
After much deliberation, Li Chang'an still felt it was inappropriate. Doing so would be too hurtful. If he really said something so absolute, how could he work with Ye Lingxiao in the army in the future?
“Your Highness, you didn’t have so many concerns when you hit me.” Feng Beichuan’s words were tinged with bitterness, and he felt more and more aggrieved the more he thought about it. “If you’re going to cooperate, you should at least show some sincerity. Besides, it’s just a matter of a word, it’s no big deal.”
Li Chang'an had no choice but to compromise. She had never been so humiliated before, and she secretly planned to get her revenge sooner or later!
Thinking of this, he ignored Feng Beichuan and walked straight out of the tent. Feng Beichuan knew he had succeeded, and a smug smile appeared on his lips. He quickly followed him out.
As soon as she went outside, she saw Deputy General Sun and others guarding the area. Li Chang'an felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at Ye Lingxiao and felt as if she had swallowed a mouthful of paste, unable to speak at all.
"Well, you all should go back now. I have something to say to General Ling Xiao."
Seeing that their general was safe and sound, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. But when they saw Feng Beichuan following them out, they clenched their fists again, secretly wishing their general would give this guy a good beating!
"Everyone, disperse, disperse!"
Deputy General Sun urged everyone to leave, but he himself didn't go far, hiding in a nearby shadowy spot to keep an eye on Feng Beichuan.
Now only Li Chang'an, Feng Beichuan, and Ye Lingxiao remain.
The atmosphere was somewhat eerie.
Feng Beichuan stood smugly beside Li Chang'an, waiting for her to say what he wanted to hear, and occasionally taunting his rival.
"Ling Xiao, I want to..."
Li Chang'an hesitated to speak, which made Feng Beichuan very anxious. He thought to himself that he had never seen this woman act so coy before, so why did she change when she was with Ye Lingxiao?
Could it be that she's been blinded by this brat?
However, Feng Beichuan quickly dismissed this absurd idea. Who was Li Chang'an? How could he be so easily tempted?
If it were that easy, wouldn't I already have a husband and wife and a large family?
Li Chang'an frowned as he looked at the person beside him. His expression was unpredictable and he looked very strange. Li Chang'an wondered what kind of bad scheme he was plotting.
Why don't you get lost?
Li Chang'an gave him a cold look.
"I, I must be a witness!"
Feng Beichuan spoke with righteous indignation.
"Get out! Don't make me say it a third time!"
Li Chang'an got annoyed again. This guy was making her restless and her mind was in a mess. This feeling of being led by the nose was really unpleasant!
"Then you have to promise to do as I say."
Feng Beichuan was unwilling. He had planned to find an opportunity to mock Ye Lingxiao after he was humiliated, but now it seemed that was impossible. He had no choice but to settle for second best and start negotiating with Li Chang'an.
After a two-second silence, Li Chang'an suddenly kicked out, and Feng Beichuan only felt a gust of wind sweep past him before he was sent flying!
They really showed no mercy!
Feng Beichuan got up from the ground in pain, not daring to cause any more trouble, and left, looking back every three steps.
Wow, that's awesome!
Cangyun, who had been hiding in the shadows, couldn't help but marvel. Although he had witnessed it before when his prince went to propose marriage, he still couldn't help but sigh when he saw it again.
Zhuque, standing to the side, couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. He really loved watching the drama unfold!
"Fortunately, our prince arrived in time, so it wasn't all for nothing that he took that kick."
As Cangyun spoke, he casually put his arm around Zhuque's shoulder with a mischievous grin: "Hey, if you were to fight her, what are your chances of winning?"
Zhuque didn't answer, but just stared coldly at his restless hand, wondering if she should chop off this gossipy woman's claws.
Feeling the murderous gaze, Cang Yun awkwardly withdrew his hand and left, feeling rather embarrassed.
"Chang An, is Feng Beichuan threatening you? Tell me, and I'll help you resolve this!"
Ye Lingxiao sensed something was off about the conversation between Li Chang'an and Feng Beichuan. He guessed that Feng Beichuan might have found some leverage to coerce him. If that were the case, he would not hold back. Even if he was the regent, he could not bully the person he loved!
Li Chang'an shook his head in denial, feeling even more reluctant. This fool was still thinking of her, how could she say such things to hurt him?
After thinking for a moment, Li Chang'an finally did enough ideological work. She gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, I'll say it. I've never been afraid of anything!"
"Ling Xiao, I've just thought about it and I think now is not the time to worry about romantic feelings, so let's not bring up that matter again. We can still be good friends and good brothers."
