Jiang Ling 'er stood behind Su Muzhi at first. Although he was not big, he could cover Jiang Ling' er with ease.
When Su Muzhi saw him walk out, he immediately moved aside. Jiang Ling 'er appeared in front of Ji Jing in a gorgeous manner. Ji Jing's mind suddenly went blank and he stopped talking.
"You…Didn't you leave with Shen Fu?”Ji Jing's voice was trembling. When she saw Jiang Ling 'er's face again, she was in disbelief.
When he came back to the Hundred Flower House, he heard that Jiang Ling 'er had left with Lord Shen Fu for two days. He thought that she would not come back once she left. If he had not been protected by Duke Zhao, he would have died long ago. He also did not have the ability to snatch Jiang Ling' er back from Shen Fu's hands. There were many hidden troubles around him, so it was inconvenient for him to leave Haojing to find her whereabouts. He could only wait for the country to calm down and the imperial power to fall into his hands. Then, he would find her and bring her back to his side.
"Thank you, Young Master Jing, for taking care of Hundred Flower House and Mu Zhi.”Jiang Ling 'er looked at Ji Jing, who was standing in front of her. There was a hint of frustration and calmness in his eyes. He was even more reserved. That sense of maturity had already surpassed his age by too much. Experience made a person. That was exactly what it was!
Ji Jing didn't reply. After he recovered from his shock, his emotions suddenly exploded. He rushed forward and hugged Jiang Ling 'er tightly. He held her in his arms as if she would disappear again if he let go. That was the longing that he had suppressed for too long. Jiang Ling' er had already been planted in his heart. The person he was hugging was not an illusion, but a real person."I can't forget you at first sight, I can't forget you at first sight, I can't forget you at first touch, I can't forget you at first sight. The first time I saw you, you danced beautifully, and your smile was enough to topple the city.”
"You…let go first!" When Ji Jing said those words, Jiang Ling 'er's head was empty. It was a mysterious feeling, and she was not just touched. However, Ji Jing hugged her too tightly, and she could not breathe."I can't breathe!"
"I won't let you leave again!" After Ji Jing finished speaking, he completely ignored Su Muzhi who was still standing at the side.
"Don't be like this!" Jiang Ling 'er struggled with all her might, but his strength was too great. No matter how hard she struggled, she could not break free."I'm already married!"
This sentence made Ji Jing's heart turn cold. He let go of her hand in a daze,""You…say it again…"
"I'm already someone else's wife!”Jiang Ling 'er's voice was trembling. Looking at Ji Jing's sad face, she felt her heart ache for some reason.
"Is it Shen Fu?" Ji Jing's eyes were dim and his voice was low. He had already confirmed this answer in his heart.
"It wasn't him. I let you down!"
"It seems that there are quite a number of men around you!”"Tell me who it is!" Ji Jing suddenly roared. I want to kill him!"
"You can't even protect yourself now. Who else can you kill?”Jiang Ling 'er looked at the furious Ji Jing and tears of heartache welled up in her eyes.
"That's right. I can't promise you anything now. It's already very lucky that I can keep my life!”Ji Jing sat on the ground in a daze. His vitality had disappeared, and he was indescribably depressed.
Jiang Ling 'er didn't know how to comfort him, nor did she know how to comfort him. She gave Su Muzhi a look and asked him to wait outside the door.
"Someone wants to kill you, so I came to find you.”Jiang Ling 'er felt a myriad of emotions when she saw how depressed he was. She wanted to hug him and comfort him.
However, she was already married to someone else. Even if it was not the person she liked and she did not marry him willingly, she still knew the basic principles of being a woman. Now, she was different from before.
"There are many people who want to kill me.”Ji Jing smiled bitterly and looked up at Jiang Ling 'er.""Are you concerned about me?"
"I don't want you to die." These were her sincere words. If Ji Jing was really killed, and died in front of her, she didn't know if she would go crazy.
"As long as you stay by my side, I will definitely live well.”The countless days and nights that filled his heart.
"Who wants to kill me?" Ji Jing knew that she knew that someone wanted to kill him and came for him. He was very happy and gratified. His lips exhaled a hot breath and he leaned into her ear. His voice was lazy and a little hoarse.
"Dragon Control." Jiang Ling 'er didn't want to hide anything from him. She had helped him before, and she was afraid that he wouldn't be alert to the Dragon Restraint and would be ambushed."Young Master Sorrow is the Imperial Dragon Restrain Yourself.”
"That bastard child of the Marquis of Chu!" Ji Jing suddenly understood. He had never known the true identity of Young Master Sorrow, but now he finally understood.
" I'm going back. If I don't go back now, the guards around him will be suspicious. If he finds out..." Jiang Ling 'er did not continue because she did not know how Imperial Dragon Keji would treat her.
" The person you married…was him?!" Ji Jing frowned. He had never expected this answer. How could she have anything to do with Yulong Keji and why would she marry him?"How dare he want my woman!"
"She's already married. It doesn't matter who she is!”Jiang Ling 'er saw the flames in his eyes and felt extremely sad. What else could she do? What other choice did she have? She had always wanted to find someone she loved to spend the rest of her life with, but she did not marry because she loved him.
"I won't let you stay by his side. Don't go back! No!" Ji Jing shouted loudly. His anger had already washed away his rationality. How could he let the woman he missed so much and finally saw return to someone else's side?
He grabbed Jiang Ling 'er's arm tightly. His eyes were determined and he refused to let go.
"What else can you do now? If you can't even protect yourself, how are you going to protect me? How are you going to bring me back to your side?”Jiang Ling 'er had to leave. He didn't want Yulong Keji to know his whereabouts and kill him because of him."If you want to take me back and let me stay by your side, then live well and take back everything that belongs to you.”
Jiang Ling 'er pushed Ji Jing's hands away. He fell silent and did not resist or stop her from leaving.
He had nothing now and could only drag out an ignoble existence. He did not even know when his life would be safe. He would only be a talisman to the woman he loved and would not let her live a comfortable life.
He clenched his teeth tightly. He no longer had the courage to stop her. He had no right to stop her. One day, he would stand up again. At that time, the first thing he had to deal with would be to control the dragon and restrain himself.
Jiang Ling 'er brought Su Muzhi back to the wine cellar. The guards outside didn't move. Although it was not a short time, it was still appropriate. Drinking wine was already a waste of effort.
"Come, drink!" She opened a jar of good wine and handed it to Su Muzhi. Her eyes were red and moist. She had been in the wine cellar for so long. How could she leave without any smell of alcohol?
She opened another jar and gulped down the wine as if she was not drinking wine, but water that could forget the pain of love.
"Ahem." Because she drank too quickly, the wine flowed out and soaked her clothes. She choked on her own drink.
"Owner, don't be like this!" Su Muzhi put down the wine jar and snatched the jar from Jiang Ling 'er's hand. He felt terrible looking at it.
Su Muzhi had always been grateful for Jiang Ling 'er's kindness. He treated her like family and respected her very much. Seeing her torture herself like this, Su Muzhi would not have it easy.
"Give it to me!" Jiang Ling 'er shouted. She had drunk too quickly just now and was a little dizzy. What else could she do? She did not know. She was helpless and had to go out drunk. Otherwise, how could she explain staying in the wine cellar for so long?
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the wine cellar. Jiang Ling 'er thought that the guards must have waited for too long and started to feel that something was wrong. They had to check on the situation.
She asked Su Muzhi to open the door while she sat on the ground and continued to pour wine from the jar. It had been a long time since she had drunk the flower wine she had brewed. Now, it tasted completely different from before.
After Su Muzhi opened the door, he didn't say a word. Jiang Ling 'er heard the footsteps and ignored them. The guards must have confirmed that they were still inside, so they let it go. When they heard the footsteps, she thought it was Su Muzhi!
The footsteps slowly approached. Jiang Ling 'er looked up and saw Yulong Keji standing in front of her. His expression was stiff. Although there was no anger, there was no warmth either.
He snatched the wine jar from Jiang Ling 'er's hand and said,""Are you trying to drown your sorrows in wine? Is there something bothering you?"
"Being stared at all day long is like looking at a criminal, how can I not be annoyed? I'm just returning to my Hundred Flowers House to chat with Muzhi, whom I haven't seen for a long time. I don't have freedom, I'm not a bird in a cage, and I don't want to be a bird in a cage!”Jiang Ling 'er felt terrible. She used the two guards as targets and began to complain,"We're husband and wife now. I'm your wife. Heaven and earth have bowed to me. Are you afraid that I'll run away?!”
She had to fight for her freedom now and could not continue like this. She knew that Imperial Dragon Keji did not completely believe her, and she did not even know if he believed her or not.
Imperial Dragon Keji was silent for a moment. He helped her up from the ground and brought her out of the wine cellar, returning to their residence in the city.
Jiang Ling 'er drank too quickly and was a little tipsy. Her body was already swaying. She rested her head on Yulong Keji's shoulder and muttered to herself," I like you. I finally saw my heart clearly today. I like you. What should I do? What should I do…"
As she spoke, Jiang Ling 'er began to cry. In her mouth and in her heart, it was all Ji Jing, not the Dragon Restrain. She felt that she was in great pain, and the more she cried, the louder she cried.
On the bed, Yulong Keji's expression kept changing. She was helpless against Jiang Ling 'er's cries and could not think of a way to coax her. He had never coaxed a woman before, so he was in a difficult position.
He thought for a moment, and a trace of tenderness appeared in his eyes. He pulled Jiang Ling 'er into his arms. He thought that the person Jiang Ling' er was talking about was him and that she was throwing a tantrum because the guards were staring at her."It won't happen again in the future. They won't do this again. Other than protecting your safety, they won't follow you around like you're a criminal anymore. I'll keep my word. You have to promise me that you won't betray or lie to me!”
