Your sister, is there anyone here to watch a show like this?
Liu Ruo Qing muttered in her heart, but since the other party had saved her, she couldn't say anything.
"Young Master is too kind."
She nodded and smiled, then walked over to the men, pulling the veils off their faces. All of them were faces she was completely unfamiliar with.
She had guessed this long ago.
They were all killers from the martial arts world. Even if someone she knew wanted to kill her, they wouldn't be able to do it themselves.
She reached out and took the sword from one of their hands. Looking at them, she asked, "I will only give you one chance. Tell me, who wants to kill me?"
"We're only hired by people. We don't know who hired us."
Liu Ruo Qing laughed, and in her eyes, a trace of coldness and killing intent flashed past.
His fingertips gently slid across the peak, "You may not know, but I'm not the type to repay a debt of kindness. As I said, I'll only give you one chance. Since you guys don't treasure it, then I'm sorry."
With a few 'shua shua' sounds, those people fell to the ground. Only a bloody wound was left on their neck, and they were currently bleeding profusely.
The man beside him was shocked by Liu Ruo Qing's action, which was so straightforward that he did not hesitate at all.
There were more than ten lives lost, and she did not even blink her eyes when she ended them with a few slashes. It was as if she was killing a few fowl. She really did not give them a second chance.
Throwing the sword dripping with blood onto the ground, she turned her head to look at the man beside her who had a stunned expression on his face, and the corners of her lips curled up.
"I've scared you, I'm usually a weak girl, my actions just now were a bit too rough."
"…"
The corners of the man's mouth twitched.
Killing people without batting an eye, and calling her a weak lady?
Wasn't his actions just now a bit too rough? Very brutal, okay?
He touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment and said, "Maybe they already said it when you gave them a second chance?"
"No need!"
Liu Ruo Qing answered very straightforwardly, "I'm not in a good mood today, I don't have the patience to wait for them to make a second attempt."
Besides, they should be like the killers last time. They would rather die than say anything, even if she gave them a chance.
"It's already late, I have to go back. Thank you again for what happened just now, Young Master."
"The girl has thanked you three times."
Liu Ruo Qing was startled, then laughed, "Goodbye."
"Hello."
The man called out to her. When she turned around, he pointed at her arm and said, "Your wound is still bleeding."
Liu Ruo Qing lowered her eyebrows, looked at his arm, and laughed at herself: "I'm used to it."
She hid the bitterness in her eyes and pulled up the corner of her clothes. She tore off a piece and casually tied up the wound.
Suddenly, Liu Ruo Qing thought of something, she looked at the man and apologetically smiled: I forgot to ask for your name, Young Noble?
The man seemed to have been waiting for her to ask this question the entire time. He seemed to have let out a breath of relief as he looked towards Liu Ruo Qing and said, "You finally asked me. If you didn't ask me, I wouldn't even know how to introduce myself."
"…"
How humorous.
"This one is Mo Rong Tian. May I have your name please? "
"Young Master Mo, it's my pleasure to meet you, my little girl Liu Ruo Qing."
"Liu Ruo Qing?"
When the man heard her self-introduction, a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.
"Yes, Liu Ruo Qing. This humble one has to go first because of an important matter. If fate wills it, I will definitely invite young master for a drink. "
"Alright, until we meet again."
Liu Ruo Qing held onto her wound and walked in the direction of the Jindu. She didn't notice the man's thoughtful expression and was staring at her leaving figure. The corner of her mouth hooked into a meaningful smile.
"Yan Yuan's wangfei is even more complicated than I thought. It's just that …"
A look of confusion appeared in his eyes, "Isn't she called Liu Tian Xin?"
Ever since he had returned from the palace, Yan Yuan had spent the entire day in his study. He took advantage of the matter of handling government affairs to prevent himself from thinking about that woman who did not know what was good for him.
But no matter how hard he tried, he could not read a single word. No matter what he looked at, what appeared before his eyes was still Liu Tian Xin's pair of eyes that were filled with mystery.
"Damn it!"
He threw the document heavily onto the table and came out of his study. The sky had already darkened.
It was early in the winter, and the sun was out. The temperature difference was especially large. When he came out of the study, he could already feel the chilly air.
Thinking about Liu Ruo Qing, his heart began to tighten instinctively.
He quickly walked out of the study and headed towards the East Courtyard. He met the butler walking towards him.
"Your Highness."
"Has the princess returned?"
"He hasn't come back yet, this old servant is planning to ask the prince."
Yan Yuan frowned, he was slightly anxious.
When Liu Ruo Qing returned to the city, the number of people on the streets had already decreased by a lot.
Because it was winter, there were fewer people on the streets than there were in summer.
From the street to the end, it seemed much more deserted.
Liu Ruo Qing did not rush back to the King Jing Palace. This was the first time she clearly felt that this was a place to stay.
She was even unwilling to face Yan Yuan's murderous and warning face.
She didn't go to the drugstore to bandage it. Although the wound was torn, it wasn't too bad.
"Sigh …"
She sighed and went to sit by the river.
On the surface of the river, the moonlight still reflected off the surface of the river.
If anything happens to Chang'er, I will make your entire xieqing apologize for you …
Yan Yuan's voice resonated in her mind once again, slowly eroding her heart.
She held her cheeks as she looked at the river's surface and smiled bitterly. Once again, a sigh came from the corner of her mouth …
"Yeah, how can a blood sister be more important than an outsider?"
Yan Chang's words had to remind her that she was an outsider. In Yan Yuan's eyes, she was also an outsider.
Liu Ruo Qing's eyes dimmed, and in her heart, she could even feel that kind of slight pain.
"My prince, the eighth prince sent word that the wangfei left the palace after the Hundred Blossom Banquet was over."
Yan Yuan waited in the hall with a gloomy face for a long time but no one came back. After hearing the butler's reply, he could no longer sit still.
"Send someone to look for him!"
After saying so, he got up and left the main hall, leaving the manor on his way.
The number of people on the street lessened, and not long after Yan Yuan left, he saw a figure at the riverbank who had been grabbing onto his heart the entire time.
Yan Yuan's eyes flashed with a bright light, he quickened his pace and walked towards her.
The closer he got to her, the slower Yan Yuan's footsteps slowed down, and then he stopped two to three meters away from her.
He quietly watched her as she stared at the river in a daze. Her eyes were lowered, and her frail body seemed extremely tiny under the cover of the night.
Her long eyelashes gently blinked. Just her side profile revealed a loneliness that made his heart ache.
