As she stroked these soldier books, Qian Li felt that she could not bear to part with them. Even the anxiety on her face seemed to have lessened by quite a bit.

His restless heart gradually calmed down after seeing these books.

Sure enough, there were things that could calm him down, and these books were obviously one of them.

After Gong Ming was done, he looked around, but did not see Qian Li. He closed his eyes and listened carefully, and quickly determined where Qian Li was.

He was startled, as though he did not know why a girl would be interested in the Military Strategy. Due to his curiosity, he walked towards Qian Li.

At this moment, the sunlight was coming in from the inside of the study through the window that had yet to be opened.

A woman in red casually leaned against a bookshelf behind him, holding onto a book in her hands as she read with relish.

Beautiful. Beautiful. Immovable.

Gong Ming's eyes slowly warmed up, and he felt that he seemed to have seen a familiar person.

In his memory, there was once a woman who liked this kind of expression when reading books.

Unfortunately, that woman was gone forever.

The speed was so fast that he didn't even have time to tell her about his intentions and rescue her from the fire. Before he could let her see the person clearly, she was already gone.

And it was even …

Left him forever...

Thinking of this, Gong Ming's eyes started to burn. The more Gong Ming looked at his, the more he felt that she was very similar to Murong Yan.

It was at this moment, Qian Li who was seriously reading suddenly felt that there was another person beside him.

Raising his head, he realized that he did not know when Gong Ming was actually standing not too far away from him.

She frowned slightly, secretly blaming herself for being too careless.

But actually, with Gong Ming's power. If he didn't want Qian Li to find out, Qian Li would put in all her effort. She might not even be able to detect his existence.

"Prince?"

The current Gong Ming was unfamiliar to him. The look in his eyes was extremely similar to the feeling he had when he was in the tomb.

Not knowing why, but when he used this gaze to look at, Qian Li felt her blood run cold.

The questions that he wanted to ask slowly faded away.

She suddenly didn't want to ask anymore, and she didn't want to say the things that she hadn't said yet.

She had thought things through thoroughly, and those things would definitely come to light in the future. Besides, if she asked Gong Ming now, other than that, which would make him suspect that she had other motives, she would not receive the answer she wanted to hear.

In that case, why bother doing so?

Qian Li's voice brought Gong Ming's train of thoughts back to reality, and looked at Qian Li's completely different face that was still standing at the same spot. Gong Ming felt that he had overthought things.

She could not help but laugh bitterly. Indeed, Murong Yan had this ability, whoever was near her would not be able to hold back from liking her. Someone who had been with her for a little longer would be unconsciously affected by her.

He had seen such a situation too many times.

There were even many times when he saw the commoners teaching their own children, saying all the while, "When you grow up, you have to learn from the Empress." In that case.

Everyone hoped that their daughter would become a phoenix, and the female lead in the story would forever be Murong Yan.

It was a pity that they died young. The heavens were always like this, and those who were truly useful to society could not be left alive.

He couldn't bear it either. He adored her heart.

Gong Ming came back to reality.

With Murong Yan's temperament, how could a small Qian Li be able to learn it?

Although she might be a bit retarded and wasn't her person, she still wasn't.

Murong Yan had always been an irreplaceable existence.

Whether it was in his heart or inside …

In the hearts of the people.

"You like the Military Strategy?" In order to ease his awkwardness, Gong Ming walked towards Qian Li, who stood up straight and took the opportunity to put the book back down.

"I can't really say I like her, but it's just that people who know her liked to read them. I always see her holding these books when she has nothing to do with. As time passes, I get curious about them."

After saying that, Qian Li sighed, then continued, "In the past, I didn't think these books were good, but this person, was truly a strange person. Not only did her thoughts change with the experiences she has, with time, even her hobbies change, but now, looking at these books, she felt that something was different.

While speaking, Qian Li had already put the book back in its original position, and Gong Ming had also arrived beside Qian Li.

"If you like it and can see it, you can come over later."

"Hmm?"

Qian Li seemed to not understand the meaning of those words. The study room was a very important place to any prince.

Here, if there were no surprises, there would be some hidden secrets.

So, what Gong Ming said now, was he going to tell his his secret?

"You have to believe that the real secrets are not hidden in the study room. The things that can be placed in the study room are mostly things that are known by everyone or are not important, so …" You don't have to worry about discovering my secret. "

Hearing this, for some reason, Qian Li felt a sense of relief.

She nodded, "Since Master has already said so, then Qian Li can only accept."

Gong Ming seemed to be very satisfied with Qian Li's reaction, and wanted to say something. His gaze inadvertently swept across Qian Li's hand, and those shocking scars instantly attracted his gaze.

Thus, unconsciously, he directly stretched out his hand to hold onto Qian Li's hand.

, who was confused, wanted to retract his hand, but he realized that he was not a match for Gong Ming in terms of strength.

"Mistress, you …" Thus, he could only look at the man before him with a confused expression.

He was so close to her, so close that if he moved any closer, they would stick together.

A familiar smell lingered at the tip of Qian Li's nose, mixed with the scent of books, causing him to feel even more familiar.

He was lost in thought.

His warmth came from her hand, like a warm current that was slowly spreading from her palm to the bottom of her heart.

His heart that had been cold for a long time suddenly felt warm at this moment.

Qian Li was shocked by the sudden change in events. She wanted to pull back, but Gong Ming's strength was still there.

The temperature on the surface of his body suddenly increased, this was a feeling he never felt before when he was with Gong Ye.

His heart pounded like thunder. Qian Li felt that his heart had suddenly become extremely anxious.

It seemed as if he wanted to jump out, yet also seemed to be pressing down with all his might.

Just then, Gong Ming suddenly spoke out.

"How?"

"Hmm?"

Qian Li's eyes were wide opened, she thought that Gong Ming was going to force her to be her friend, but after hearing his question, Qian Li felt that her brain suddenly stopped thinking.

So, Gong Ming was just curious about the wound on his palm?

This was a little awkward, and it was practically without thinking. Qian Li said it out loud, "Sometimes, when you are nervous, you unconsciously exert yourself, and when you react, your palm becomes like this."

"…" The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, but in the end, he still asked curiously, "There are so many wounds, and none of them are deep. Could it be that when you pinched them, they didn't hurt?"

"At that time, I didn't even know what pain was, and Master already knew it. Qian Li's endurance seemed to be better than that of an ordinary girl, so …"

After saying that, Qian Li kept her hand. This time, Gong Ming did not stop him and looked at him for a while.

Just as Qian Li was about to escape from his scorching gaze, he suddenly spoke out, "I really don't understand why all of you women need to have such long fingernails."

Qian Li was instantly amused, "Beautiful."

The corner of Gong Ming's mouth twitched again, and it was an extremely obvious twitch this time.

he said. " "You, who have never applied makeup, actually left your fingernails for the beauty of the world?"

She purposely waved her nails in front of Gong Ming's face and said, "As the proverbs say, everyone loves beauty. Qian Li is also a woman, why can't she love beauty?"
