Yan Lang immediately turned around and shielded Qing Qian behind him. Li Hongji wasn't a good person. He couldn't let Qing Qian get hurt.
Li Hongji's eyes were fixed on Qing Qian. The corners of Qing Qian's eyes were slightly red, and there were faint traces of crying. Her entire body was wet, and she did not know how much she had suffered. He only knew:
She wasn't good. She wasn't good at all.
Li Hongji's hands tightened as he looked at Yan Lang with eyes full of anger. Of course, he knew that Yan Lang left to protect Qing Qian, but was this how he protected Qing Qian?
"First Prince, I have already helped you kill Li Jingsui. Please return Qingqian to me.”Yan Lang's words were very light, but it did not allow for rejection.
"Humph." Li Hongji snorted." She's mine." If you don't give it to me, I don't mind giving you one.”As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers raised their bows and arrows.
"Qing Qian, don't be afraid. I will protect you.”Yan Lang said to Qing Qian behind him. Yan Lang's words were very certain, but the sweat on his palms betrayed his nervousness. It was absolutely impossible for him to retreat from such a close-range shot, not to mention he had to protect Qing Qian.
"Yes." Qing Qian nodded. Yan Lang's words were enough.
"Li Hongji, I'll go with you." Qing Qian ignored Yan Lang's objection and walked to Li Hongji's side." Yan Lang, remember what I said today. You can come to me anytime to fulfill your promise."”Qing Qian smiled at Yan Lang. Although she was in a sorry state at this moment, that smile…
It was enough to topple a city.
Li Hongji and Yan Lang were both stunned. The corners of her lips curled up into a beautiful smile. Yan Lang, I won't regret today's decision in my next life.
She was too tired. She needed a gentle harbor to rely on.
So, between the one she loved and the one who loved her, she chose the latter.
This was not a wise decision, although it was quite pragmatic.
Looking at Qing Qian and Li Hongji's back view, Yan Lang shook his head. Qing Qian, I will only exchange that promise with you when I am certain that you are absolutely safe. Although I've always wanted you to be my wife.
…………
"Why? Are you reluctant?" Li Hongji raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't like the current Qingqian who was submissive and didn't say anything.
"Yes, I can't bear to." Qing Qian nodded without any concealment.
Li Hongji only smiled and did not comment. Regardless of whether he was in Qing Qian's heart or not, she could only be his in this life. Life, yes. Death, yes.
He returned to the First Prince's estate with Li Hongji. Qing Qian didn't say anything to Li Hongji and walked towards her room, leaving behind a cold back.
"Qing Qian, it was my fault today. "Li Hongji hesitated for a long time, but he still managed to squeeze out these words through gritted teeth. This should be the first time the esteemed First Prince has lowered his head to someone.
Qing Qian shook her head and didn't say anything. She continued to walk to her room. Li Hongji, although I'm very surprised that you would apologize to me, not everything can be resolved by an apology.
You sold me to a wolf, a wolf you knew would eat me alive.
Your heart is so cruel.
Qing Qian closed the door, but Li Hongji looked at the closed door for a long time before he got up and went back.
He sighed slightly. No one knew what that meant.
