If he attacks himself again, the system can punish him.
However, Qu Qingxi was not fooled. She was not stupid enough to think that she could provoke him into attacking her again and then have the system electrocute her.
If Ren Nuanyun hadn't been carrying the system, and if the system hadn't directly healed Ren Nuanyun's injuries and helped her detoxify, Qu Qingxi would have preferred to just feed Ren Nuanyun a packet of mute-inducing medicine and make her mute.
Seeing Ren Nuanyun lying on the ground like a clown, trying her best to curse her and provoke her to attack her again, Qu Qingxi found it all laughable.
She had no idea what was going on with the system, that it would choose such an unintelligent person as its host; it was truly laughable.
Qu Qingxi slowly walked to Ren Nuanyun's side, squatted down, grabbed Ren Nuanyun's collar, but did not hit her. Instead, she leaned close to Ren Nuanyun's ear and whispered, "You're not the only one who has a system, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Ren Nuanyun froze, then looked at the person in front of her in shock.
What does that mean? She actually knows I have a system?
No, there's another meaning to her words: she might also have a system.
Ren Nuanyun stood there, staring blankly at the person in front of her, speechless.
Enjoying the ever-changing expressions on Ren Nuanyun's face with satisfaction, Qu Qingxi smiled and then got up to leave.
However, after taking only two steps, they heard footsteps outside, and judging from the sound, there was more than one person; it was likely a group of well-trained people.
Qu Qingxi paused, just about to turn around, when suddenly a dark figure flew towards her. Qu Qingxi quickly raised her hand to attack, but saw that the person dodged her attack and then reached out to grab her waist.
Upon smelling the familiar scent, Qu Qingxi knew that the person in front of her was He Liufeng.
He Liufeng was exceptionally skilled in light-footed martial arts and quickly led Qu Qingxi away from the Crown Prince's residence.
Qu Qingxi had many guesses in her mind: Why was He Liufeng here?
When did he arrive? Did he discover his secret?
Thinking this, Qu Qingxi turned her head to look at He Liufeng. He was also wearing a mask, so she couldn't see his expression. She could only vaguely sense that he was very serious.
He Liufeng did not take Qu Qingxi back to the Prince's Mansion, but went directly to Cuiwei Pavilion and entered his room.
Upon opening the door, the room was quite simple, containing only a desk, a chair, and a soft couch.
Qu Qingxi stood at the door, silently looking at the person in front of her.
After closing the door, He Liufeng walked straight to the desk, sat down, and removed the face mask to reveal his handsome face.
Qu Qingxi then took off her face mask and walked up to He Liufeng, asking, "When did you get there?"
Qu Qingxi actually wanted to ask what he had seen, and whether he had seen her use her spatial ability to collect the arrows flying towards her.
"I wasn't asleep. I got up as soon as you left," He Liufeng said honestly.
Seeing Qu Qingxi staring at him warily, He Liufeng couldn't help but feel sad, but he also understood. After all, no one could accept their secret being suddenly discovered.
Yes, He Liufeng saw that the arrows disappeared instantly when they reached Qu Qingxi's side, and then emerged from her cloak a moment later.
He Liufeng was certain that this wasn't about the cloak; he had personally chosen that cloak for Qu Qingxi, and there was absolutely no problem with it.
The only problem is Qu Qingxi. He Liufeng doesn't want to know what secrets she has. He only knows that she is who she is, his princess, Qu Qingxi.
"Then what do you want to ask?" Qu Qingxi raised an eyebrow at He Liufeng. The fact that he had gone there so early meant that he had seen everything.
"I don't want to ask anything." He Liufeng stared intently at Qu Qingxi. "This is your business, your privacy. If you don't want to talk about it, then don't."
"Then why did you bring me here?" Qu Qingxi fell silent upon hearing He Liufeng's words. He wasn't even asking? Wasn't he curious?
But since He Liufeng had already said that, Qu Qingxi didn't say anything more and changed the subject.
Why did He Liufeng come to Cuiwei Pavilion instead of taking her back to the Prince's Mansion?
"Please sit down."
"Where should I sit?" Qu Qingxi looked at He Liufeng suspiciously. There was only one chair in the room, and he was still sitting. Was she supposed to sit on the table?
Upon hearing this, He Liufeng looked up and glanced around the room, then suddenly remembered that there was only one chair there, right under his bottom.
"On the soft couch." He Liufeng pointed to the soft couch next to him. Seeing Qu Qingxi hesitate, he added, "This room is cleaned every day. Don't worry, it's very clean."
Qu Qingxi then walked to the soft couch and slowly sat down.
"I brought you here to tell you something: Cuiwei Pavilion is part of my organization."
Qu Qingxi was stunned for a moment because she didn't expect He Liufeng to confess this. She blinked and looked at He Liufeng again, only to see that he looked very sincere.
"Why are you telling me this?" Why choose to tell me this today? He also said he didn't want to know his secrets, so he brought me here today to exchange his secrets for hers?
Countless guesses flashed through Qu Qingxi's mind.
"I'm telling you this not so that you'll say something or confess your own affairs, but just to tell you this," He Liufeng explained, noticing the confusion on Qu Qingxi's face.
“You did a good job today, but you don’t need to do these things yourself. Cuiwei Pavilion is my territory. From now on, you can arrange for them to do whatever you want.”
You just need to wait for the results at the mansion; don't get your hands dirty with blood because of unrelated people.
He Liufeng spoke earnestly. He felt sorry for Qu Qingxi when he saw her wreaking havoc in the Crown Prince's residence today. She had no power, so she chose to take matters into her own hands when faced with such a situation.
"I..." Qu Qingxi was at a loss for words. Had she overthought things?
She thought that He Liufeng told her about Cuiwei Pavilion in order to exchange secrets with her, but she didn't expect him to say that he could arrange the people in Cuiwei Pavilion at will.
"Are you blaming me for having blood on my hands?" Qu Qingxi couldn't think of anything else, so she could only say this dryly.
“That’s not what I meant. What I meant was that you don’t need to work so hard. You just need to give the order, and someone will do these things for you.” He Liufeng stood up and sat down next to Qu Qingxi.
"Today is not the right time. Some important people from Cuiwei Pavilion are not here. Another day, after they return, I will ask them to come to the Prince's Mansion so that we can get to know each other properly."
If you don't want to see them, just take the token and tell them what to do.
As He Liufeng spoke, he took out a jade token from his pocket and handed it to Qu Qingxi, "This is a token of Cuiwei Pavilion. You can use it to come here at any time and instruct them to do anything."
Qu Qingxi only glanced at the jade pendant. It was a warm white jade, with a smooth and lustrous texture, about the size of a baby's palm. Upon closer inspection, two characters were engraved on it: "Cuiwei".
