C778 I'm not a liar

He didn't expect that this old man's martial arts would be so much higher than they had imagined. They had sent out so many people, yet they hadn't even touched a corner of his clothes.

The side hall that Lu Yuan He lived in wasn't far from the main hall that Yan Yuan and the others were in. Adding to that large commotion that crazy old man made in the middle of the night, Liu Ruo Qing was shocked awake in an instant.

She had not been able to sleep soundly all day, and she felt something was hanging in her heart. That was why, after she was awakened, there was still fear and trepidation lingering in her chest.

Yan Yuan had also woken up at this moment. To be more precise, he had not slept at all, so he naturally could hear the sounds coming from the courtyard.

He originally thought it would be easy for the dark guards to kill that crazy old man, but he never expected that it would cause such a commotion in the middle of the night.

Sensing that the person beside him had stood up, he followed suit.

"It's the voice from the courtyard of the Mr. Lu."

As Liu Ruo Qing said this, she had already gotten up from bed, but was stopped by Yan Yuan.

"It's dangerous over there. With the guards, don't go over there."

Liu Ruo Qing shook her head, feeling uneasy, "I heard Uncle's voice, he must be targeting him."

A crazy old man who was in King Jing Palace could even attract the attention of killers, which made Liu Ruo Qing even more certain that the crazy old man had some kind of huge secret on him, and this secret must be related to the annihilation of the Jiang Family.

She did not listen to Yan Yuan's persuasion, she had already put on a set of outer robes and was about to walk towards the direction of the other courtyard.

Yan Yuan was worried, he immediately got off the bed and followed along, but at the same time, at the other side of the courtyard, the guards who had rushed over upon hearing the news were already gathered outside the courtyard.

The few black-robed assassins, who were originally sent by Yan Yuan to kill the mad old man, saw that Yan Yuan and his wife were walking towards them from afar.

The guards, who did not know what had happened, had already surrounded them. In addition to that crazy old man who had great martial arts skills, they had dispatched so many of their secret guards. Yet, they were unable to harm him in the slightest.

At this time, Yan Yuan had already followed Liu Ruo Qing and walked over. Yan Yuan's gaze swept over the person in the lead, her eyes went deep into her eyes, and the person leading them understood.

As soon as his voice fell, before the guards of the manor could rush over, the guards had already disappeared into the darkness.

Seeing Liu Ruo Qing coming over, the mad old man immediately ran towards her. Yan Yuan subconsciously tried to stop him, but he was pushed away by the old man.

The old man's martial arts were very high, adding on to the fact that Yan Yuan was severely injured, the old man pushed him gently and he staggered a few steps back. The wound felt like it was tearing at him, and his expression immediately turned cold.

Seeing Yan Yuan being pushed around by the crazy old man, Liu Ruo Qing suddenly remembered the wounds on his body that had yet to heal. Feeling anxious, she immediately turned to check on Yan Yuan's wounds, only to see that the crazy old man was faster than her by a step, and stood between his and Yan Yuan.

"Young madam, who is this man? How can you be with him?"

"I …"

How could Liu Ruo Qing possibly care about this crazy old man? However, because of what he said, Yan Yuan's face turned even more ashen.

"Young Madam, how can you let the Crown Prince down?" Leave this man! "

Saying that, he stared at Yan Yuan with a guarded expression.

Liu Ruo Qing saw that Yan Yuan's face was extremely pale, and when she thought of his injuries, she did not want to beat around the bush with that crazy old man. She walked over to Yan Yuan's side and asked, "How is it, is your wound hurt because of him?"

The worry that leaked out of Liu Ruo Qing's eyes allowed her expression to ease up a little. He gritted her teeth and shook her head. "Nothing."

He reached out and held Liu Ruo Qing's hand. When he looked at the crazy old man, her cold gaze made the old man's pupils shrink.

Liu Ruo Qing knew that the old man was unconscious. With his current appearance, Liu Ruo Qing did not need to bother with him, but she could see that Yan Yuan's face was extremely ugly. Especially when she looked at the old man, the cold look in his eyes seemed to hide a bit of killing intent.

Liu Ruo Qing was stunned for a moment. Her eyes trembled, but she did not think too much about it, and only advised Yan Yuan, "Let's go back first.

"Yes."

Yan Yuan withdrew his gaze from the old man, and signaled the guards to retreat before he accompanied Liu Ruo Qing to leave.

"Young Madam, where are you going? You definitely can't be fooled by this man. With just one look, you can tell that this man is a swindler. Young Madam!"

Liu Ruo Qing pursed her lips, she could not help but want to laugh, but when she saw that the person beside her had a gloomy face, and actually had a grudge with the old man, although she was shocked that Yan Yuan would actually argue with an old man's crazy words, she did not think much about it.

She turned around and said to the crazy old man, "I'll chase this scammer out now. It's getting late. You should rest first, Uncle."

"Ai!" "Alright!"

The moment he turned around, the old man went back into the house. It was as if he had completely forgotten about the battle that was aimed at him tonight.

Liu Ruo Qing supported Yan Yuan back to the Eastern Courtyard, and looking at his calm face, he laughed: "Enough, uncle is already an idiot, why are you still thinking about what he said?"

She lightly smiled as she pushed Yan Yuan's arm and helped him to sit down on the bed.

But Yan Yuan could not laugh at the moment, the old man had said, "This man is a liar!" His throat tightened and his heart trembled.

Looking at the relaxed smile on Liu Ruo Qing's face, he just couldn't laugh.

Seeing his serious expression, the smile that was on her lips faded away. Her eyes revealed a look of worry, "What's wrong, did something happen?"

She sat down beside Yan Yuan, and just as she sat down, she was pulled into his embrace by him. She was hugged very tightly, to the point that Liu Ruo Qing felt that it was a little strange.

"Yan Yuan?"

"Qing Er, I'm not a liar, believe me."

His voice was a bit hoarse, and his eyes suddenly turned red. The war god who used to shake the world was now like a helpless child, hesitating and at a loss.

Liu Ruo Qing sensed Yan Yuan's abnormality but did not know why he was acting this way. Furthermore, she did not know why he would be so concerned about the words of a crazy old man.

However, his uncertain tone still made her heart uncontrollably ache. She reached out and hugged Yan Yuan's waist, then softly said: "Of course I know you're not a liar. Even if you're a liar, you're still the liar who loves me the most in the world."

Yan Yuan's heart was in turmoil because of her words, and his eyes were a little redder than before.

He released Liu Ruo Qing's body and looked at her with a gentle gaze. In his deep eyes, there was a hidden sense of apology.
