Lin Qingya trembled as she passed through the underground passage and finally escaped to the back garden. The garden was silent, with only a few unknown insect sounds echoing in the night sky. She took a deep breath and tried to calm her panic. She had to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise it would be bad if she was discovered.
She looked around and found a small door in the corner of the back garden. She walked quickly to the door, but found it was locked. She pushed hard, but the door didn't budge. Lin Qingya didn't give up and continued to shake the door vigorously, but she couldn't open it.
"Damn it!" Lin Qingya cursed in a low voice. She looked around and found that there was no one in the garden. She decided to take the risk and climb over the wall.
When she climbed over the wall, she unexpectedly found a figure standing on the top of the wall. The figure had his back to her and she couldn't see the person's face clearly.
"Who?!" Lin Qingya exclaimed and asked vigilantly.
The figure turned around, and Lin Qingya saw the man's face clearly. It was Li Chengqian.
"It's you?" Lin Qingya was a little surprised. She didn't expect to meet Li Chengqian here.
Li Chengqian looked at Lin Qingya with a complicated expression on his face and said, "Sister Qingya, why are you here?"
"I came here to find Li Rui." Lin Qingya replied.
Li Chengqian's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he asked, "Did you find it?"
"I found him, but he was imprisoned in a secret room and I couldn't open the door." Lin Qingya said. She did not hide the fact that Li Rui was imprisoned.
Li Chengqian sneered and said, "You are still too naive. The palace is not as simple as you think. Do you think you can do whatever you want here?"
"I have found out Li Heng's secret, and I want to expose his conspiracy!" Lin Qingya said firmly. She didn't care about what Li Chengqian said. She knew that she had grasped important clues, and she must use these clues to help Li Rui and protect herself at the same time.
Li Chengqian looked at Lin Qingya with aggression in his eyes. He slowly approached Lin Qingya and whispered, "Sister Qingya, if you want to expose his conspiracy, why not expose my secret first?"
Li Chengqian's voice was filled with a dangerous charm. He slowly approached Lin Qingya, his eyes full of teasing, as if he was playing with a prey. Lin Qingya was not afraid at all. She looked straight into Li Chengqian's eyes and said in a calm tone, "What do you want to know?" Her voice was calm and firm, as if she did not have any emotional fluctuations, but it made Li Chengqian feel an invisible pressure.
"Do you really think you're hiding well? Do you think I don't know you're using me?" Li Chengqian's tone gradually turned cold. He stretched out his fingers and gently stroked Lin Qingya's cheek, his movements gentle but full of danger.
Lin Qingya turned her face slightly to avoid Li Chengqian's touch. She said calmly: "I admit that I used you, but I never thought of hurting you. I need your help. We need to deal with Li Heng together."
"Are you telling the truth?" There was a glimmer of doubt in Li Chengqian's eyes. He did not believe in Lin Qingya's sincerity. He always thought that Lin Qingya was just using him.
Lin Qingya did not answer. She just smiled faintly and asked, "Are you afraid of me?" There was a hint of provocation in her tone. She saw through Li Chengqian's fear and anxiety.
Li Chengqian was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Lin Qingya to ask this. He looked at Lin Qingya with a trace of confusion in his eyes. Lin Qingya's face had a sly smile. She continued: "I know you are afraid of being exposed, you are afraid of losing everything, you are afraid of Li Heng's revenge. But I can help you, I can help you get everything you want." Her voice became softer, as if she was saying a secret love word.
Li Chengqian was attracted by Lin Qingya's voice, and he was deeply immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself. He looked into Lin Qingya's eyes, which were full of desire and confusion. Lin Qingya smiled gently, and then said: "We need to cooperate, only in this way can we win the final victory."
Lin Qingya gently pushed Li Chengqian's hand away, turned around and walked deep into the garden, leaving Li Chengqian with a charming back view, as if waiting for him to chase her. Li Chengqian looked at Lin Qingya's receding back, his thoughts were in chaos, and he didn't know what to choose.
"What on earth do you want to do? What on earth do you want to get?" Li Chengqian murmured to himself in a low voice, his eyes filled with confusion and fear of the future.
