"Junior brother, why are you punishing yourself like that? I know that you don't love those women, but in your heart, you've always had the shadow of junior sister, right?" Zheng Ting Ze looked suspiciously at Qian Ru Ming.

"Do you think you know me well? A woman who doesn't love me, what do I do when I read it... Alright, I don't want to talk about the past anymore. Give me a treasure that's proper, or else I'll definitely avenge 'Hei Hei'! " Qian Ru Ming said coldly. He didn't seem to be joking at all.

"That Qinglan has the same eyebrows as Junior Sister, that's why you gave her such an important thing, right?" Zheng Ting Ze was still seeking death.

"Shut up! I've already said that you don't need to mention the past anymore. I don't want to pursue this matter any further, so don't force me to start a massacre! " A murderous light flashed in Qian Ru's eyes. However, when he felt Zheng Tingze's gaze, Qian Ruming immediately changed his attitude.

"I assume that the girl from the Spring Festival should be the one you love? Otherwise, you wouldn't have given 'Bai Bai' to her! "It's a pity that junior has a deep affection for you. Aren't you looking at the wrong person …" Qian Ruming shrugged his shoulders as he raised his eyes to conceal the sorrow in the depths of his eyes.

"I don't want to explain it to you. Even though you don't want to leave the dust behind, I owe you one after all … "Ugh …" Zheng Ting Ze used his lightning fast speed to violently pull out a dagger and fiercely stabbed himself in the stomach. The sudden pain made Zheng Ting Ze unable to restrain himself from groaning in a low voice.

"You … "Why do you have to go through so much trouble!" The moment he saw blood gushing out from Zheng Ting Ze's dagger, Qian Ru's heart trembled slightly. He suddenly went forward and slapped Zheng Ting Ze twice to stop the bleeding.

"Now that we're even, as for 'Hei Hei' and 'Bai Bai', maybe this is heaven's will. They were originally a pair, and now that they are able to die for each other, it can be said that they are willing to do so. Junior apprentice-brother … "Sorry …" As he watched Zheng Ting Ze's lonely back, an indescribable pain surged from the bottom of Qian Ru Ming's heart. At that time, he knew that his Junior Apprentice Sister liked his Senior Apprentice Brother, but for the sake of getting his Junior Apprentice Sister, he had deliberately ignored all of this. If he was to say that he was in the wrong, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

Just as Qian Ru Ming was sighing emotionally, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Who?" "Come out!" Qian Ruming suddenly turned around and looked at the dark corner. Before long, Qing Lan's figure slowly walked out from the dark corner.

"It's you …" In fact, he had come to find Qing Lan. If, before he had killed the ghost Luo Sha, he had always thought that Qing Lan seemed to hate him, but in his heart, he at least cared a little about him. However, when he woke up in the empty wilderness, his heart seemed to have dropped to the bottom.

"I didn't mean to hear about your old affairs. I just wanted to talk to Imperial Physician Zheng about something." Qing Lan explained and was about to head to the royal hospital, but was stopped by Qian Ru.

"You should have seen it. He just stabbed himself. Do you think he has the ability to follow you to the Phoenix Storage Pavilion again?" The moment Qian Ru Ming appeared in front of Qing Lan, Qing Lan immediately retreated and looked at Qian Ru Ming warily. She did not know why, but after hearing the story just now, Qing Lan suddenly felt that Qian Ru Ming was not as hateful as he was now. But that was it.

"In that case, farewell …" Qing Lan saw the accusation in Qian Ru Ming's eyes and turned around, but was stopped by Qian Ru Ming.

"Is there really no place for me in your heart? Even if we have already been married? " Qian Ru Ming's voice sounded very injured. He felt as if he was being bitten by a venomous snake, causing him to almost suffocate.

"I did not do it voluntarily! Money is like life. Back in the wilderness, I wanted to take your life with a single sword, but I didn't because I owed you a favor. If we don't have anything to do with each other in the future, I hope you won't look for me again! " Qing Lan opened her mouth and spoke with determination in her eyes.

"No longer have anything to do with it? Do you think it's possible? " Qian Ru Ming pretended to smile confidently as his small eyes narrowed down to a slit.

"You … Don't try to do anything to me anymore, I... "Mmm mmm …" Before Qing Lan could finish, Qian Ruming had already grabbed her slender waist with one hand while his other hand was inserted into the hair at the back of her head. His sausage mouth covered Qing Lan's cherry lips. It was an almost crazy kiss, and his heavy voice was tinged with a sense of punishment.

No matter how hard Qing Lan tried, Qian Ruming was indifferent. Even though he bit Qian Ruming's lips, Qian Ruming's actions remained firm and even became crazier. Qing Lan no longer had the strength to resist. She collapsed into Qian Ruming's embrace, and the kiss slowly became gentle. The kiss fell on her fair neck, and the moment Qian Ruping pushed her against the wall, she suddenly woke up, took out her bun of pearls, and fiercely stabbed down.

Qian Ruming only felt a chill behind him as he suddenly dodged. However, because he was too close to Qian Ruming, a long bloody wound was left on his left arm.

"Ugh …" He had never expected that Qing Lan would try to kill him. Suddenly, an angry flame rose in his heart, and Qian Ruming, ignoring the pain in his left arm, suddenly pinched Qing Lan's neck, slowly tightening, slowly tightening. Qing Lan suddenly felt like she was suffocating, and the scenery in front of her blurred, was she dead? Even if she died, it would be good. Besides Xiao Yuxuan, he had nothing else to worry about. Yuxuan … Qing Lan knows that she isn't worthy of you, but in her next life, she still hopes to have a chance …

Perhaps dying was a relief to her, she really did not want to face Qian Ruming, but just when Qing Lan thought she was doomed to die, Qian Ruming suddenly let go and looked coldly at Qing Lan.

"Why aren't you begging for mercy? As long as you are willing to say a word of apology, I will spare your life! " Qian Ru's voice was cold and his eyes were cold. In his entire life, he had only been tempted by two women. One was his junior sister and the other was Qing Lan, but what he got in return was almost the same result. One betrayed him and ran away with him while the other chose not to be with him even if he died. What was it!?

"Cough, cough …" Qing Lan was speechless, she didn't even look at Qian Ru Ming as she staggered towards the Phoenix Storage Pavilion. Looking at Qian Ru Ming's fading back, Qian Ru Ming suddenly smiled bitterly. Perhaps he shouldn't have fallen in love with any woman in his life, ah, why give up such a large part of the forest for a woman who wanted him dead?

Xiao Wang Manor.

Inside the house, the candle flame was faint and yellow, emitting a fragrant scent. The candle light flickered and shone on Duan Mu Yan's face, flickering with light and dim, further contrasting with Duan Mu Yan's devastatingly beautiful appearance.

"Is Zi Min well?" Duan Muyan worriedly asked as she looked at Yao'er, who was helping her take off her makeup.

"Esteemed wangfei, don't worry. Zi Min has already gone to bed. Everything is fine …" Yao'er respectfully replied as the comb in her hand slipped through Duan Muyan's long hair that was like a waterfall.

"Yao`er, let me ask you, why are you in Master's mansion today?" Duan Mu Yan had a nagging feeling that after Yao'er left Zheng Ting Ze's residence, she had something on her mind. When she saw Yao'er at Physician Zheng's residence today, she was even more certain of her thoughts.

"I... "I'm just going to see if my injuries are healed …" Yao'er indifferently replied as her face was dyed red.

"Yao'er, your master is about to reach the year of the flower armor, and you are only twenty years old. You must be careful. Sometimes, if you lose your heart, you won't be able to find it …" His eyes were filled with warmth, she had never imagined that Yao'er would have such feelings of adoration and admiration for Zheng Tingze.

"Esteemed wangfei …" The awkwardness on her face deepened as she pursed her lips, pulling Yao'er to sit on a chair.

"Yao`er, in my heart, you are not servants, but sisters. If I meet a suitable candidate, not only will I not stop you, I will also bless you. I just want you to follow Master, it would be too unfair for you!" Duan Mu Yan sincerely said.

"Princess, what are you talking about? Yao'er won't go anywhere until you've accomplished your great mission. She'll stay by your side and walk through fire and tread on water without hesitation!" Yao'er resolutely said, her eyes filled with determination. Duan Mu Yan gratefully held Yao'er's hand as she slightly nodded her head.

"Thank you. If you like Master, I can say that I just wish you happiness …" Duan Mu Yan softly said, feeling incomparably gratified in her heart. Now that Yao'er had someone she liked, she understood Zi Min's personality. Once things were done, she would definitely decide for them and allow them to marry as a husband. At this moment, Duan Mu Yan suddenly thought of Xiao Yuxuan. Ever since their marriage, she had never seen him again.

Early in the morning, Duan Mu Yan, Yao'er, and Zi Min went to the inn as usual. After disguising themselves, they arrived at the Spring Festival Courtyard.

"Yao'er, did you remember what I told you yesterday?" Duan Moyan instructed in a low voice.

"Don't worry Miss, Yao`er will go right away, it's just that …" Is Miss really safe here? " A ghost like Luosha, she was already like a viper in a cup of wine.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen …" You can go first! " Duan Mu Yan nodded his head, gesturing for Yao'er to leave. Although Yao'er was worried, she still had important matters to attend to, so she had no choice but to leave the Spring Festival.

After Yao'er left, not even half a cup of tea later, Duan Mu Yan's Purple Butterfly Pavilion welcomed an uninvited guest.

"Lady Meng Yan, we meet again …" She saw that the person in front of her had long hair that was dyed in ink, purple clothes that fluttered in the wind, and a trace of an evil smile was always revealed on her incomparably magnificent face. Every time she faced Duan Xingyi, Duan Mu Yan would always feel a dangerous wind surrounding her, especially when Duan Xingyi had eyes as deep as the sea; it was as if there were too many secrets hidden away for her to see through.

"Isn't Lady Meng Yan surprised to see me?" Seeing Duan Mu Yan's face filled with astonishment, Duan Xingyi pursed his lips, the corners of his lips curving into a carefree smile. Just as Duan Mu Yan was about to stand up to welcome him, a green-robed young lady suddenly appeared behind him. Duan Mu Yan felt that she was familiar with this young lady, but she couldn't recall where she had seen her before.

"This is Lady Meng Yan …" It's so beautiful! " It was just a simple sentence, but it resounded like thunder in Duan Mu Yan's ears. She remembered this voice, back in the prison, it was the owner of this voice who disguised himself as her and made her a prison cell for three days. Right! Duan Mu Yan suddenly understood. Back then on the main street, she had clearly seen this woman in the carriage of the Moon Splendor Hall.
