Fei Xiao Chai may be impulsive and he may not know what was going on, but he had one great advantage: he knew his own limits.
For example, right now, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that his Little Junior Sister Yunkai should have left Xiao Jiu'an behind. However, when Feng Qi said that she could not leave him behind, Fei Xiao Chai immediately changed his position. He called out to Ji Yunkai to take care of Xiao Jiu'an and to not let him die.
He could not think about such hard and complicated things, so he only needed to listen to Feng Qi.
"I know." It was very strenuous for Ji Yunkai to drag Xiao Jiu'an, but when she heard Fei Xiao Chai's words, she staggered a few steps back, almost falling to the ground. Even so, she did not let go of Xiao Jiu'an.
In the end, Xiao Jiu'an had risked his life to save her, so how could she leave him behind?
"Little Junior Sister, quickly, quickly, take three steps to the right and run forward." From time to time, he would give Ji Yunkai directions so that she could avoid any danger.
This action was undoubtedly the greatest humiliation to his opponent, who was also a very proud person, Ye Cang Qiong. Seeing that Fei Xiao Chai was distracted from the battle between them, he was immediately angered, and his moves abruptly changed into sharp and fatal strikes.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing!?" Fei Xiao Chai instantly felt an increasing pressure. He had no choice but to focus all of his attention on battling Ye Cang Qiong.
Fortunately, Ji Yunkai had already dragged Xiao Jiu'an out. Although their last few steps were a bit awkward, and the two rolled on the ground a few times, they were able to escape and not get smashed to death by the falling wooden tiles.
"Yunkai, take Prince Yanbei with you.…" Feng Qi did not give Ji Yunkai a chance to catch her breath. He urged them to leave, but before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of orderly footsteps.
"Rescue is coming!" Fei Xiao Chai's eyes immediately lit up, and so did Feng Qi's. After Feng Qi faked a move to force back Ye Cang Qiong's maid, Feng Qi turned around and walked to Ji Yunkai's side and helped her up. He then took out a bottle of medicine and gave it to her, "Little Junior Sister, this is a pill to strengthen and nurture your body. Take two pills first."
"Thank you, Feng Qi… Senior Brother." Ji Yunkai looked at the smiling, yet unfamiliar man, who looked as smooth as jade, in front of her and his eyes widened for a moment.
This was the second time she saw Feng Qi, and the first time she spoke to him, but she did not feel like he was a stranger. She could not even put up her guard against him.
One must know that because of her experiences as a child, she was extremely wary of others. After all, her blood relatives abandoned her. If even they could not be trusted, then who else in this world could she trust?
"You're welcome." Feng Qi seemed to be able to see through her heart, and knew that Ji Yunkai was uncomfortable. After giving the medicine to Ji Yunkai, Feng Qi elegantly retreated, putting a distance between the two of them.
It was just a single step, yet it did not seem distant, nor did it make them seem alienated. It was a distance that could be used to attack and defend, and was extremely suitable for their current situation.
This man was truly… he made one feel comfortable, and there was no way for one to be on guard against him at all.
Ji Yunkai could not help but let out a light smile, a smile that came from the bottom of her heart.
The sound of footsteps from outside the courtyard came closer and closer, and Ye Cang Qiong's two maids had caught up to him. Feng Qi had no choice but to turn around and deal with the entanglement of the two maids, "Little Junior Sister, feed Prince Yanbei three pills to him, and then think of a way to escape."
"Alright." Ji Yunkai did as she was told and poured three pills into Xiao Jiu'an's mouth.
It was very obvious that the people who had arrived would be able to charge in very quickly, but no matter if it was Ye Cang Qiong or his maids, both of them seemed to not mind at all. It was as if the people who had come were not Xiao Jiu'an's reinforcements, but their own people.
"Are you still not going to run?" Fei Xiao Chai wasn't someone who could not speak his mind, so he could not help but ask when he saw this.
"Run? Why should I run?" Ye Cang Qiong gave a noncommittal smile, "Fei Xiao Chai, you can't be naive enough to think that the people who came was Xiao Jiu'an's men, right?"
"What do you mean?" Fei Xiao Chai's expression changed slightly as a trace of unease flashed across his eyes.
At this time, the people outside the courtyard had already rushed in. When Ye Cang Qiong saw the person in the lead, he faintly smiled, "Feng Qi, I, Ye Cang Qiong, have won this round. Now, I want more than just a Nine-Revolving Heaven Pill."
"Yunkai, quickly, bring Xiao Jiu'an with you!" Feng Qi wasn't Fei Xiao Chai, Ye Cang Qiong had already explained things so clearly. No matter how foolish he was, he would be able to understand what was going on.
There was a traitor within the Yanbei Army, and they could not wait for Xiao Jiu'an's reinforcements tonight.
Xiao Jiu'an had probably guessed it already, or maybe Xiao Jiu'an had done it on purpose, to lure out the spies in the Yanbei Army. In order to find a spy from the Yanbei Army, what was the point of Xiao Jiu'an pretending to be unconscious for a month? Why take such a dangerous risk tonight?
Ji Yunkai wasn't like Fei Xiao Chai either. Let alone Feng Qi reminding her, even if Feng Qi did not tell her, she would have already guessed what happened.
Xiao Jiu'an was really a ruthless person. Not only was he ruthless to others, he was also ruthless to himself.
"Aren't you afraid that Feng Qi and I will ignore you and let you die here?" Ji Yunkai could not hold in her anger anymore, but she still carried Xiao Jiu'an up, before running in the other direction.
"Little Junior Sister Yunkai, quickly leave… I will go after Boss." However, Fei Xiao Chai realized something was off when he saw the "reinforcements" rushing towards Ji Yunkai and Xiao Jiu'an, he immediately understood what was going on.
Fei Xiao Chai carelessly sprinkled some medicinal powder, forced Ye Cang Qiong to retreat. He leapt in front of Ji Yunkai, and blocked the "reinforcements" attacks on her behalf.
Ji Yunkai's eyes reddened as she looked at the figure that was not too tall and sturdy in front of her, and she said with a choked voice, "Senior Brother, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? Little Junior Sister should take care. Hurry up and go, stop wasting time!" Fei Xiao Chai had always been a carefree person, but he could not bear such sincere gratitude. He pretended to be angry and chased Ji Yunkai away, but in truth, he was feeling extremely happy inside.
His Little Junior Sister called him "Senior Brother." He also had his Little Junior Sister, hahaha...!
