"You two have a lot of free time?"
Li Chang'an raised an eyebrow, his expression somewhat unfriendly, thinking to himself that Ye Lingxiao was too inconsiderate, not even knowing how to take a chance when offered one!
"I don't want to waste time either, so I will naturally listen to Chang An. If she finds it troublesome, I will not do anything reckless with you."
Feng Beichuan's ability to adapt to changing circumstances is truly astonishing. His words not only made him appear very understanding but also extricated him from an unfavorable situation.
He knew he was no match for Ye Lingxiao, and that continuing the fight would only bring him trouble. He figured he might as well seize the opportunity to let the matter drop, since he wouldn't lose anything anyway.
Feng Beichuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking how timely Princess Yong'an was, solving his big problem with just a few words.
Ye Lingxiao glared at Feng Beichuan, who was nearly dead—what a convenient way to go with the flow!
Although the soldiers around Ye Lingxiao were just as unhappy as he was, they dared not protest out of respect for Li Chang'an. They could only silently defend General Lingxiao in their hearts and curse Feng Beichuan, that shameless scoundrel, a thousand times over.
Li Chang'an also didn't want to pay attention to that annoying person who was trying to take advantage of the situation. She knew that Ye Lingxiao had suffered a great deal of anger today, and if there was no resolution, he would definitely feel depressed, which might even damage their relationship.
Thinking about this, Li Chang'an felt a headache coming on again. Were these people just here to cause him trouble?
Just as she was thinking about how to resolve the matter peacefully, Ye Lingxiao spoke first: "Chang An, are you determined to protect him today?"
Ye Lingxiao looked very hurt. The successive blows were almost driving this proud man crazy. If he had known things would develop to this point, he would have kept the secret in his heart for the rest of his life and never uttered a word!
Feng Beichuan, standing to the side, seemed indifferent to the situation. The sun was just coming out, so he could use his fan to cool himself down, and of course, he also fanned himself vigorously to help Li Chang'an cool down.
maintain?
That word is used very well.
Feng Beichuan couldn't help but nod in agreement with Ye Lingxiao's words in his heart, and his mood became exceptionally cheerful. Although saying this might seem like he was living off a woman, he didn't care about such a trivial matter compared to the person he had been longing for!
Ye Lingxiao's words left Li Chang'an speechless. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with him, so why did it now seem like he was a heartless man?
"General Lingxiao, that's not what our general meant."
Deputy General Sun couldn't stand it anymore. The more things went on like this, the deeper his guilt became. He couldn't help but speak up for Ye Lingxiao. Of course, he didn't want everyone to fall out, so he tried his best to keep the atmosphere from becoming too tense.
“Ling Xiao,” after a brief silence, Li Chang’an finally couldn’t help but sigh, “I don’t mean to favor anyone, but what’s the point of you fighting to the death?”
"My heart is with me. It's really not worth you making such a fuss over someone who is not even a little bit important. I'm already exhausted. Please don't cause me any more trouble."
Upon hearing these words, Ye Lingxiao instantly became as dejected as a defeated rooster. His eyes dimmed, and he felt as if his heart had been stabbed by a knife, making it difficult for him to breathe.
It turns out I was just a clown from beginning to end.
Unnecessary people? Who knows that the unnecessary person she speaks of is a treasure in her heart?
"sorry."
The three simple words struck Li Chang'an's heart like a heavy boulder.
In the end, I hurt him again.
Ye Lingxiao turned and walked away alone. By this time, the sun had spread across the earth, but dark clouds still covered the area above his head.
Li Chang'an didn't know whether she should say something to comfort this broken heart, but after thinking it over, she gritted her teeth and didn't say a word, only watching that somewhat sorrowful figure walk further and further away.
With a soft sigh, Li Chang'an clutched the glass beads tightly in his hand and left.
"Everyone, disperse and go do what you were doing!"
Deputy General Sun waved his hand at everyone. He was also very upset about how things had turned out this way. He glared fiercely at Feng Beichuan, this unexpected troublemaker, and then didn't want to look at this scoundrel any longer.
"That's so boring."
Seeing that everyone had left, Cangyun, hiding in the shadows, couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment. Then, looking at the person who was still shamelessly following behind Li Chang'an, he couldn't help but feel annoyed. "Can't our prince have any dignity?"
"You're the one who brought these people here, and you still think you haven't had enough of a show?"
Zhuque rolled her eyes at the gossipy woman speechlessly, then took out an exquisite purse from her pocket, weighed it in her hand, and couldn't help but frown.
That one use of so many Ice Soul Pearls that she worked so hard to make was such a waste!
"Oh, a new weapon?"
Cangyun looked curiously at the purse in Zhuque's hand and reached out to snatch it, but was caught off guard by a palm strike from the other party.
"That's too stingy! Can't I even look?"
Taking a few steps back and rubbing his aching chest, Cangyun complained with a wronged expression that his partner was really too heartless!
Zhuque ignored him and disappeared with a cold snort.
"Why did they all leave?"
This world is so boring! Cangyun couldn't help but complain in his heart. The fun he had finally found was gone again!
Back in his tent, Li Chang'an placed the glass bead in his hand on the table. This thing was really strange; even after holding it in his hand for so long, it still felt as cold as ever.
She was initially annoyed by Ye Lingxiao, but now she had no time to think about those trivial matters. She just wanted to quickly investigate what these strange beads were.
Thinking of this, Li Chang'an prepared to take out her dagger to test how hard the bead was. However, as soon as she took out the dagger and looked closely at the scene in front of her, she was shocked.
A small puddle of water inexplicably appeared on the table where the beads were placed, and the beads had visibly shrunk, as if the ice had melted.
This surprised even the usually calm Li Chang'an. She quickly picked up the beads and held them in her hand. They were still cool to the touch, but strangely, the beads did not change at all and remained smooth.
Originally, Li Chang'an wanted to try cutting the beads with a dagger while holding them in his hand, but the beads were small and slippery, and he would cut his fingers if he was not careful. Without something to hold them in place, he could not cut them at all.
Now it seems that Ye Lingxiao really did fall for these beads, and Li Chang'an finally understands why Ye Lingxiao pursued him so relentlessly back then.
Looking at the few small beads in his hand, Li Chang'an stroked them carefully while pondering why they didn't melt in his hand.
