But he only said the first half of the sentence, and it was also for An Yan. As long as it was something she wanted, he would do his best to help her get it, even if it meant sacrificing his life, even if she wanted it for someone else.
Yan Qingqiu frowned and said, "I think it's better to forget it. It's not worth giving up freedom. Besides, everyone has life and death."
An Yan went to see Li Rongsen and said to him very seriously, "Let's go back." Then she went to pack up.
"It can't be a wasted trip." Li Rongsen said.
Yan Qingqiu had already started packing up, and while helping Li Rongsen pack up, he said, "Just listen to An Yan, don't think too much."
An Yan said: "Forget it, let's go back and think of another way."
"What methods will he use? You insist that I will definitely not be able to leave in three months?" Li Rongsen was really puzzled.
"You don't know the old man from the North Courtyard at all. He never lets an outsider stay here for too long. The last time I came to detoxify, he hurriedly sent me away before I was fully recovered." Yan Qingqiu explained to Li Rongsen, and then said, "Why did he bother to keep you? Of course he likes you."
"Are you interested in me?" Li Rongsen was puzzled. He looked towards An Yan.
An Yan also started packing up and said, "He always has a way to make you stay willingly. You can't beat him."
Li Rongsen wanted to say something else when he saw a man coming over and saying, "City Lord, our Dean wants to see you."
An Yan thought about it for a moment and finally went with him.
The old man in the North Courtyard set up a banquet in the long pavilion of the garden. He motioned for An Yan to sit down and said to her, "It's rare for the city lord to come to the North Courtyard. I should do my best to be a good host."
"The dean has done a great job." An Yan replied politely.
"I have something else I want to give to the city lord. I hope you will accept it." The old man in the north courtyard smiled at her.
An Yan didn't believe that the old man would change his temper. He was famous for his calculations. How could he give her something for no reason? She couldn't help but feel a little confused.
And then I saw several people coming from outside the garden and standing in an orderly line outside the pavilion.
"Come in, everyone. How can people see you if you stand here outside? They can't even see what kind of nose or eyes you have." The old man in the north yard motioned for them to all stand in the pavilion.
There were six handsome men, each with his own style, which made An Yan even more confused. She asked, "What are they doing?"
"Since I have taken your city slave, I will naturally return one to you. You can choose one." The old man in the north yard said to her with a chuckle.
"What's that? I never said I wanted a city slave."
"Why should you be so careful? He's just a slave. It doesn't matter who you replace him with. Besides, these six are famous handsome men. Which one of them can't compare to him?" The old man in the north yard asked An Yan with a smile.
An Yan sneered, and then said: "If they are really comparable, why do you have to take a fancy to my people? It's obvious that you know they are not comparable."
"Then let's take all six of them. One against six, it won't be a loss at least."
The person who said this was Beichen. She was wearing Ming Dynasty clothes today, which made her look even more charming. She walked into the garden and said to An Yan, "Although he is willing to be a slave in Xicheng, you did not agree and did not give him a red rope chain, which shows that he is still a free man."
"So it was you who wanted him."
"I like him, so I'll ask him to stay here for three months. If he wants to leave after three months, I'll let him go."
"Don't say that. You have plenty of ways to stop him from leaving." An Yan sneered, and then said, "Even if you really want him to leave, I don't want him to stay and suffer your punishment."
"What are you talking about? I really want to treat him well."
"He doesn't need it."
"He's unmarried, I'm unmarried, and everyone needs it."
"He is indeed unmarried, but he doesn't need you. As for whether you need him or not, it's your business." An Yan said angrily.
Beichen was also annoyed and said, "What are you talking about? You are just a man."
"What you said is true. He is just a man. There are so many men in the world. You can just find another one. What's the meaning of snatching him from me?" An Yan asked her coldly.
"Then you can find another one, or a bunch of them."
"He is already a city slave of my West City, so naturally no one else can covet him." An Yan did not intend to give in.
Beichen was so angry that he said, "You are the Lord of West City after all. How can you be so ignorant and disregard your dignity for a man?"
An Yan was too lazy to talk nonsense with Beichen. She looked at the head of the North Courtyard and said, "You don't care about your daughter. Look how crazy she is. She is disrespectful to her elders for a man."
The old man in the North Courtyard naturally wanted to side with his daughter, but it was not easy to offend An Yan. If he angered her, things would be difficult to handle, so he had to gently scold Beichen: "You go down first."
But Beichen was used to being spoiled, and said to Anyan: "You don't want Yongchun anymore, right? There is no other place to get Yongchun except here."
An Yan was not threatened by her. She said, "A piece of Yongchun is nothing compared to him."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Beichen sneered and said, "Okay, it seems that Yongchun is indeed worthless, but your West City Lord is willing to visit him in person and endure the cold shoulder for a day, which shows that he is indeed worthless."
"That's all bullshit. I'm not going to give it to you anyway. I'm leaving now." After saying that, An Yan strode out of the hospital.
Beichen was so angry that he fainted. He said to An Yan, "Do you think you can get away? No matter what, even if I have to destroy West City, I will get him!"
An Yan turned around to look at her and said, "If you have the guts, come and rob it. I'm always here to accompany you." After saying that, she left.
The old man in the north courtyard quickly persuaded Beichen to calm down, saying: "You shouldn't say such cruel words. Even if you want to rob, you should do it secretly, not say it openly."
"They have to leave the North Courtyard alive first." Beichen was already angry. She sneered at the six men, "Get out of here, useless bastards."
The old man in the North Courtyard reminded her: "My century-old foundation cannot be destroyed by a man."
"What does our North Court lack from West City? It's because father is too kind. He should have destroyed them long ago." Beichen said shamelessly.
"He is just a man. There are many other men you can want. Why does he have to choose this one?" The old man in the North Courtyard really couldn't understand. Although he also thought that Li Rongsen was good, he was just an ordinary man after all, and she had to fall in love with him.
Beichen was not doing this for a man now, but for dignity, to defeat Anyan. She said nothing more, just turned around and left the garden.
On the other side, An Yan had already gone back.
When Yan Qingqiu saw her coming back, he asked, "What did the old man say to you?"
"Let's go quickly. We can't stay for a moment." An Yan said as she motioned Yan Qingqiu and Li Rongsen to pack up.
Li Rongsen noticed that An Yan's face was not right, and asked her: "Did something serious happen?"
"If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave. Let's leave here first, and I'll talk to you later." An Yan picked up her bag and was about to walk out of the house.
However, he found that the way out of the yard was blocked by branches and vines, which were all crisscrossed together, blocking the gate of the yard and the sky above the yard, so that he could not see the sky clearly.
Yan Qingqiu also followed and said, "Is this old man going to get serious with us?"
"Does it have something to do with me? As long as I stay, they won't hurt you." Li Rongsen felt that it should be related to himself.
An Yan said to Li Rongsen very coldly: "Li Rongsen, don't let me hear me leave these words again, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
Li Rongsen had never seen An Yan be so stern before, so he shut up immediately.
