Chapter 259 Giving Face



Seemingly to prove that what he said was true, Liang Xuanjing added, "The food and snacks over there are absolutely delicious. Today it's my treat, you can eat whatever you want!"

After saying that, he whispered in Li Chang'an's ear, "Give me some face!"

Li Chang'an couldn't help but sigh and give up his idea of ​​being alone.

After dealing with Li Chang'an, Liang Xuanjing's face lit up with joy. He then waved to Liu Mengwan and Feng Beichuan beside him and said in a serious tone, "Let's go then. Let's have a good meal today to get rid of the bad luck!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Feng Beichuan's expression as if by accident. He saw that the man's face was dark and his eyes were full of anger as he stared intently at the hand that was resting on Li Chang'an's shoulder.

That piercing gaze seemed to want to chop that hand off.

Liang Xuanjing naturally saw all of Feng Beichuan's emotions and understood why Feng Beichuan looked like he had a deep-seated hatred for him.

A sly glint flashed in his eyes.

Feng Beichuan was so angry that he gritted his teeth and gave this shameless scoundrel a thorough dressing down.

This guy actually dared to lay a hand on the person he liked; it's absolutely unforgivable!

Normally, Feng Beichuan would have already slapped that dog's paw off.

In this situation, although he had the desire, he couldn't bring himself to do it, so he could only suppress his anger.

What made Feng Beichuan feel even worse was that he couldn't understand why Li Chang'an would react so strongly to the slightest overstepping of his bounds before, but now that it was that brat Liang Xuanjing, this woman seemed to have lost all feeling and didn't put up any resistance.

The old vinegar jar has been overturned again.

Just then, Li Chang'an seemed to realize that something was wrong, and felt uneasy all over.

With a quick glance, when she saw the paw that was naturally resting on her shoulder, she immediately found the culprit.

The way these brothers and sisters acted, neither like brothers nor like sisters, was truly uncomfortable to behold.

Immediately, Li Chang'an looked coldly at Liang Xuanjing and asked, "Does your arm not hurt anymore?"

At first, Liang Xuanjing didn't react, and just waved his hand with a laugh, saying, "It's alright, Miss Liu's technique is superb, so it doesn't hurt much."

But after saying those words, he suddenly felt that something was not quite right. He then looked at the woman's slightly furrowed brows and slightly disgusted face. Although he felt strange, he couldn't quite figure it out.

At this moment, Li Chang'an felt that this person was truly hopeless.

Then, she coldly glanced at Liang Xuanjing's restless paw, and then raised her hand and slapped the paw down.

It was only then that Liang Xuanjing suddenly realized what was happening, and couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed.

He was naturally outgoing and friendly. Not to mention that he had a life-and-death bond with Li Chang'an, even if he met someone he had just met, he could still put his arm around them within three sentences.

"Young Master Liang, you'd better put your arm back in, otherwise it will hinder your recovery."

As Li Chang spoke, he gave Liang Xuanjing a dismissive look before walking straight ahead.

Seeing this, Feng Beichuan felt a little gratified. Then he thought that it wasn't so bad that this woman was a bit aloof. At least she could clearly draw her own boundaries with others, which made him feel better.

But now a new problem is troubling him.

Because he was sidelined by Li Chang'an, Liang Xuanjing turned his gaze to Liu Mengwan, who was watching them with a smile.

"Hey, Miss Liu, what brings you out of the manor today?"

As expected, Liang Xuanjing immediately started talking and began chatting with Liu Mengwan about everyday things.

And he was right about her; compared to Li Chang'an, this Miss Liu was indeed much easier to get along with.

Therefore, the current situation is such that Li Chang'an walks alone at the front, Feng Beichuan follows alone at the back, and Liang Xuanjing and Liu Mengwan are chatting and laughing in the middle, making it quite lively.

Feng Beichuan felt a surge of restlessness. He watched Liang Xuanjing and Liu Mengwan chatting idly on the side, feeling extremely frustrated.

If this were any other time, he would have already gone to Li Chang'an and started nagging him.

Thinking of this, Feng Beichuan couldn't help but sigh softly, and then involuntarily turned his gaze to Li Chang'an.

Unfortunately, Li Chang'an was completely unaware of this. Now that Liang Xuanjing was no longer making a fuss, her ears were finally much quieter. She was naturally happy to be alone, and her steps gradually quickened, as if she were not with the people behind her at all.

After struggling with his thoughts for a long time, Feng Beichuan gradually convinced himself that as a man, he had to take the initiative. In any case, things couldn't possibly get any worse than they were now.

Immediately, he gritted his teeth and strode forward to catch up with Li Chang'an.

The two are now very close.

Feng Beichuan raised his hand slightly, but suddenly felt as if his throat was blocked and he couldn't speak at all. In the end, he could only clench his hand into a fist again and put it behind his back.

Just as Feng Beichuan was inwardly cursing himself for being a coward, Liang Xuanjing suddenly came running up behind him with small, quick steps.

"Hey, why are you walking so fast? Weren't you at the very back at the beginning? Are we walking too slowly?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan was speechless for a moment. He then glared at the talkative fellow and went on his way in silence.

Whether Liang Xuanjing was deliberately causing trouble or genuinely didn't sense anything amiss, he turned to Liu Mengwan and said, "We shouldn't be walking too slowly, right?"

Liu Mengwan could only shrug helplessly and remain silent.

Then Liang suddenly looked like he had just realized something, slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I know! It must be because none of you were talking that you walked so fast. Come on, let's all have a chat!"

After saying that, he ran up to Li Chang'an and sincerely invited him, "Your Highness, you must be lonely and tired walking so fast all by yourself. Why don't you chat with us and relieve your boredom?"
