Water stained the hem of the robe, and the bloodstains turned the water red, only to make it clear again in an instant.
"You just said that I'm the only person in your world?"
Nan Lingqin asked calmly.
Yuwen Yao chose to remain silent.
Nan Lingqin glanced at Yuwen Yao, then at the crystal-clear stream beside her. "Yuwen Yao, are you planning to kill me here and dump my body in the stream?"
Yuwen Yao, who had just put Nan Lingqin down, was actually a little at a loss. However, he still stood there calmly, his phoenix eyes fixed on Nan Lingqin's face, looking at her so closely, as if she would disappear in the next second. When he suddenly heard her speak like this, cold and sarcastic, he couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart.
"I won't hurt you in the slightest, don't worry."
"Oh!"
Nan Lingqin looked up at him, sneered, and then stepped back.
"Don't go."
Yuwen Yao grabbed her wrist again.
Nan Lingqin turned to look at Yuwen Yao, frowned and said sharply, "Let go."
"It's dangerous over there, so be careful."
"Go to hell."
Seeing Yuwen Yao covered in blood and with a cold expression, Nan Lingqin felt angry and bit down on the back of his hand.
That force could definitely break Yuwen Yao's bones.
Nan Lingqin leaned down fiercely, but before her lips touched his, she paused again.
What difference does it make if I bite?
She raised her head again, her face cold, and pulled her hand away from his. "Don't worry, I value my life more than anyone else now, and I will never die easily."
"very good."
Yuwen Yao's furrowed brow relaxed, and he slowly lowered his wrist.
Nan Lingqin looked away, a half-smile on her face, then tossed the clothes that belonged to Yuwen Yao to him and fastened her belt herself.
The air fell silent for no reason, with only the leaves rustling slightly in the wind and a fishy smell wafting from the air.
Nan Lingqin lowered her hands and looked at the stream beside the two of them. The stream was about half a person's height and connected to a lake.
I wonder if this water is cold?
So, Nan Lingqin suddenly raised her hand and pushed Yuwen Yao inside.
"Thump—"
Water splashed everywhere. Yuwen Yao sat in the stream, the water reaching his shoulders. Blood from his face mingled with the water and instantly flowed down his chin.
It looked so dilapidated.
"Do you have anything to say?"
Nan Lingqin suddenly asked.
Yuwen Yao felt his blood freeze as Nan Lingqin stared at him with clear, sharp eyes. His heart was filled with a mix of elation, complex emotions, and inner turmoil. His lips moved for a long time before he finally said, "I will wait for Xu Yiran to come and pick you up before I leave."
Upon hearing this, Nan Lingqin's starry eyes narrowed. "So, you're not killing me, but protecting me?"
"……right."
The answer was given with a calm tone, yet it was also somewhat difficult.
"Hehe, Yuwen Yao, have you lost your mind after all these days of defeats?"
Nan Lingqin felt a mix of emotions, but suddenly she sneered in anger, "What right do you have to protect me? What right do you have to bring me here? What right do you have to kill so many people?"
"They're thinking things they shouldn't be thinking, damn it."
"Damn it, damn it."
Nan Lingqin glared at Yuwen Yao. He was in the water, soaked and disheveled, while she stood by the stream, her hands hanging limply at her sides. In short, she looked like a queen, her chin held high, exuding an air of dominance.
“You might be mistaken,” Nan Lingqin suddenly said softly.
"You misunderstood?" Yuwen Yao frowned slightly.
"Yes, I actually like Hei Bu Shui. We're mutually attracted and it's a mutual thing. We were just flirting when you showed up."
As Nan Lingqin spoke, she still felt endless regret. Upon hearing this, Yuwen Yao's face darkened instantly, and he spoke with great emphasis, "Don't be stubborn."
"Sulking?"
Nan Lingqin sneered, "Yuwen Yao, don't overestimate your charm. Excessive narcissism isn't a good thing. Besides, even if I were to act out of spite, I should be with Xu Yiran, not you. To be honest... things change, and I've become quite skeptical of my own taste in the past. Looking at you now, you really are..."
Nan Lingqin's eyes flickered, her starry gaze sweeping over Yuwen Yao with utter disdain. Then she shook her head, clicking her tongue in disapproval, "Besides being a little good-looking, he really doesn't have any other redeeming qualities. Unlike the barbarian warriors, whose faces are rough and their skin is poor, but whose physiques are quite robust. I'm thinking..."
"Nan Lingqin!"
Yuwen Yao seemed angry; his face suddenly darkened, and in the blink of an eye, he was standing by the stream in front of Nan Lingqin. "You, what did you just say?"
"I don't seem to have any obligation to explain to you. Okay, goodbye."
"Don't go."
"Are you trying to take liberties with me?"
Yuwen Yao's attempt to pull Nan Lingqin back froze inexplicably at Nan Lingqin's words, and then his hands slowly fell to his sides.
I wanted to take advantage of you, not just take advantage of you, but also want you, want you endlessly, but...
But I can't!
"Do you think that if I were to voluntarily go to the barbarians, would Zydam find me the best warriors?"
Nan Lingqin added that when she said this, it seemed like she really wasn't joking.
"No, you're not allowed."
Yuwen Yao's composure finally crumbled.
Nan Lingqin looked at Yao's cold and angry face, then suddenly laughed, "Yuwen Yao, you don't actually think that because I slept with you, even if I was hurt and my body was damaged, I can only accept you as a man, do you...?"
Yu Wenyao was startled.
"The men of Southern Qi are mostly handsome and charming, and they are also very witty. I like them very much, so it's not a big deal to keep one or two to serve me in bed..."
Yuwen Yao's breath caught in his throat, and his gaze instantly became like a stormy sea, staring blankly at Nan Lingqin, wanting to pounce on her, wanting to see through her, but in the end, he couldn't utter a single word.
