He had said that he would never see Ji Qingyan again, but Xuan Lie still stepped into the Flame Residence.
"Where's my mother?"
"In the room." Ji Qingyan said.
Princess Yong Ping had fainted in his Flame Residence, so Ji Qingyan had no choice but to inform Xuan Lie to come and get her.
However, they all knew that this was just an excuse. In fact, Ji Qingyan wanted to see Xuan Lie, so she asked him to come. Otherwise, she could have just called a servant of the Xuan Mansion to pick her up.
Xuan Lie stared at him and asked,"What did you do to my mother? Why did she faint?"
"What do you think I will do? Beat her up?" Ji Qingyan smiled mockingly.
"Ji Qingyan!"
Why did he always speak in a joking tone? Xuan Lie didn't know when he was serious.
"Perhaps it was her first time coming to Flower Street, so she fainted from shock!”
"Can't you be more serious?”Xuan Lie said unhappily.
"When I'm serious, you don't believe me at all.”Ji Qingyan said.
Did Xuan Lie really think that he would hurt Princess Yong Ping? Even if he hated her, he would never hurt Xuan Lie's mother!
"I'm not talking to you anymore."
Xuan Lie was about to enter the room when Ji Qingyan suddenly stopped him."
"Wait, Xuan Lie, I heard that you are going to follow the army to battle. Is this true?”
Xuan Lie stopped.
"It's true. The emperor wants to find someone he can trust to be the supervisor of the army, so I volunteered.”
"Even if you're an army supervisor, you can still become the enemy's target. You're not thinking of sending yourself to your death, are you?”Ji Qingyan couldn't hide the worry in her voice.
"This is none of your business," Xuan Lie said impatiently.”
"How can it not be my business? If you are going to the battlefield to escape me, then I…"
"Are you trying to persuade me not to go?”Xuan Lie looked back into Ji Qingyan's eyes and asked.
"Will you not go because of my advice?”Ji Qingyan asked.
"I won't." Xuan Lie said without thinking.
Ji Qingyan knew that she shouldn't be disappointed. She knew that Xuan Lie hated him so much that it was too late. How could he stay for him?
However, Xuan Lie was not going to the neighboring town, but to the border that was hundreds of thousands of miles away from him!
"I won't wish you a pleasant journey.”Ji Qingyan said.
"I don't need your blessing either."
After saying this, Xuan Lie immediately went into the room to look for Princess Yong Ping. Then, he left with Princess Yong Ping. He didn't even look at Ji Qingyan, because even Ji Qingyan couldn't change his decision.
"Flame God, I'm here to bid you farewell.”Du Jiyao said.
As the Great General, he naturally had to go to the border when the Turks invaded.
"Is that so? Even you are leaving." Ji Qingyan's tone was full of reluctance.
Of course, Du Jiyao wouldn't think that Ji Qingyan was reluctant because he was leaving. He heard that Xuan Lie was also going to the border. Ji Qingyan's reluctance must be because of Xuan Lie!
"This isn't like you at all." Du Jiyao couldn't help but ask.
"How do I look like me?" Ji Qingyan asked.
"The Flame God I know should be cold and arrogant. As long as it's what you want, you must get it no matter how difficult it is. Where did your courage go? Did you know? You look really ugly when you're suffering from love.”Du Jiyao said mercilessly.
He had had enough of Ji Qingyan's zombie appearance.
"I know." Ji Qingyan said dejectedly.
"If you must have Xuan Lie, then go after him!”Du Jiyao blurted out. "It doesn't matter how much humiliation I suffer. Anyway, the worst thing is the current situation.”
"Chase him?" Du Jiyao's words echoed in Ji Qingyan's mind. Indeed, no matter what, it was better than the current situation, so he made a decision in his heart. "Jiyao, I have something to ask of you.”
Du Jiyao raised his eyebrows. What could Ji Qingyan have asked of him? This made Du Jiyao very curious.
"What is it?"
"Actually, it's not a difficult thing. It's just a piece of cake for you.”Ji Qingyan revealed his usual confident smile.
Now Du Jiyao finally understood what he wanted. It didn't matter if he got Ji Qingyan's heart or body. He just wanted Ji Qingyan to be happy. Why did he only understand such a simple thing now?
"What is it?"
"Help me find my love." Ji Qingyan said.
He was willing to give up everything just for Xuan Lie to return to his side.
The army had already set off for a day.
After setting up camp, Du Jiyao invited Xuan Lie to his tent. However, when Xuan Lie arrived, he ordered people to tie him up.
"Du Jiyao, what are you doing? Could it be that you want to take revenge?" Xuan Lie was puzzled and emphasized,"The matter between me and Qingyan is already in the past. At this moment, I only want to serve the Imperial Court!”
"It's very troublesome for me to hear you say that.”Du Jiyao said.
"What do you mean?" To be honest, Xuan Lie really couldn't guess Du Jiyao's intentions.
"Explain it to the young duke!" Du Jiyao turned his head and said to the person beside him.
Standing beside Du Jiyao, a man in armor and a helmet covering his face said,""I want to kidnap you, Xuan Lie."
" You…" Xuan Lie was so shocked that he couldn't say anything. Just hearing that voice made Xuan Lie's heart beat wildly.
It was Ji Qingyan! The man who shouldn't be here.
Ji Qingyan took off his helmet, revealing his beautiful and exquisite face. There was still a smile on his lips.
"From now on, you have to listen to me.”Ji Qingyan approached him and said.
This was what Ji Qingyan had asked Du Jiyao to do. He wanted Du Jiyao to arrange for him to join the army and then help him kidnap Xuan Lie.
"What the hell are you doing?" Xuan Lie roared.
It was fine if Ji Qingyan was fooling around alone, but why was Du Jiyao also fooling around with him?
"Little Marquis, just obediently follow the Flame God! I can serve the country anytime, but love is something that can only be met by luck. I believe that you will definitely thank me in the future.”
"As if I would thank you!" "Let me go!" Xuan Lie said angrily.”
Ji Qingyan pretended not to hear Xuan Lie's words. He turned to Du Jiyao and asked,""Is the carriage ready?"
"Yes." Du Jiyao replied.
"Thank you, Jiyao." Ji Qingyan was grateful to him from the bottom of her heart.
"If you really want to thank me, give me a hug!”Now, Du Jiyao only hoped for a friendly hug.
"Then what's the problem?" Ji Qingyan said as she stepped forward and hugged Du Jiyao.
In Xuan Lie's eyes, the hug between Ji Qingyan and Du Jiyao was really an eyesore.
"How long are you going to hug me?"
Could he say that his love for Ji Qingyan had disappeared? Xuan Lie's burning jealousy almost burned Du Jiyao to ashes.
"It won't hurt to hug him." Du Jiyao said maliciously, but he deliberately hugged Ji Qingyan tightly.
Perhaps this would be their last hug.
The carriage had already traveled some distance. Ever since they got on the carriage, Ji Qingyan and Xuan Lie had not spoken a word. The silence was suffocating. In the end, Xuan Lie spoke first,
"Can you untie me now?”
"No, unless you promise me that you won't run away.”Ji Qingyan said.
"Alright, I promise you." Xuan Lie nodded. At first, he was indeed very angry, but now he only wanted to know what Ji Qingyan wanted to do.
With Xuan Lie's assurance, Ji Qingyan released Xuan Lie. At this moment, the carriage suddenly jolted, causing Ji Qingyan to accidentally fall into Xuan Lie's arms.
"Ah! I'm sorry."
Ji Qingyan was about to get up, but Xuan Lie stopped him and pulled him back into his arms.
"I made up my mind to leave you, do you know that? But look at what you've done to me! You actually shattered my determination so easily.”
"I'm sorry." Ji Qingyan buried her head in his chest.
"Is that all you have to say?" Xuan Lie sighed." What do you plan to do next?”
"Plans?" Ji Qingyan shook her head.
"You kidnapped me without any plans?”Xuan Lie called out in disbelief.
"I had no choice." "I just want you to understand the real me," Ji Qingyan said with a wronged expression.”
"The real you?" Xuan Lie frowned." I thought I knew you well enough.”
"No, you don't know me, so you can't trust me. " Lie, I only need ten days. In these ten days, we will live in harmony and show our true selves. If you still can't forgive me after ten days, I will give up.”Ji Qingyan bet everything on these ten days.
Xuan Lie told himself that he must not be fooled by Ji Qingyan. He was the best at lying. Everything he said was fake, but he heard his mouth say,"Alright, ten days it is."
Could ten days change anything? At this moment, Ji Qingyan and Xuan Lie were unsure.
Xuan Lie and Ji Qingyan found an inn to stay in, but it was difficult for Ji Qingyan's beautiful appearance not to attract the attention of others. When they ate in the inn, they attracted a group of hooligans who coveted Ji Qingyan's beauty. They thought that Ji Qingyan was a woman dressed as a man!
"Miss, come and have a drink with your brothers!”
The leader of the hooligans pretended to be crazy and grabbed Ji Qingyan's shoulder, smiling ambiguously.
Ji Qingyan frowned slightly. They had committed two major taboos without realizing it.
First, they actually called him "Miss". He hated it when people treated him as a woman. Secondly, he hated it when people touched him.
Just as Ji Qingyan was thinking about how to deal with this group of hooligans, Xuan Lie couldn't hold back his temper and said to the leader of the hooligans,""Let him go!"
"Kid, you better not spoil my mood.”The leader of the hooligans said viciously.
Humph! Who was the one who overestimated himself? Seeing that Xuan Lie was about to take action, Ji Qingyan immediately signaled Xuan Lie to calm down with her eyes. Then, she turned around and smiled at the hooligans.
"What's wrong with drinking with you guys? I don't care what you guys want to do, but I like the strongest man.”
"Of course it's me!" The leader of the hooligans said arrogantly.
Normally, no one would dare to refute his words, but Ji Qingyan was too tempting, so someone among the hooligans stood up and said,"
"No, I'm the strongest among us. I usually give in to Boss.”
"You're all wrong. I'm the strongest!”Another person stood up and shouted.
In the end, almost all the hooligans were arguing that they were the strongest. Ji Qingyan suggested,""Let's duel! Only a duel would reveal who was the strongest.”
"That's true."
Everyone agreed with what Ji Qingyan said. Only by fighting could they know who was the strongest.
In an instant, the entire inn fell into a fight. Everyone wanted to defeat each other.
Xuan Lie had long known that Ji Qingyan could confuse people. Even if he was placed in front of the enemy, the enemy might still kill each other for him!
In short, Ji Qingyan was a terrifying man, and Xuan Lie was deeply attracted to this terrifying man.
"Let's go!" Ji Qingyan grabbed Xuan Lie's hand and said.
"Eh?"
After Ji Qingyan started this fight, he actually wanted to leave?
"Do you want to join this chaos and fight for me?”Ji Qingyan teased.
"Don't be silly."
Xuan Lie and Ji Qingyan walked out of the inn. Sigh! It seemed that they had to find another place to stay.
Along the way, Ji Qingyan hummed softly as if the chaos had never happened.
"It's a very nice song." Xuan Lie looked at him and said.”
"This is what my mother taught me. The meaning of the song seems to be about a person who has been abandoned and is waiting for his lover to change his mind.”
That should be Ji Shiniang's inner thoughts. Half of her life was waiting for Xuan Qing.
"My parents said that your mother is a ruthless woman, but is that really the case?”
Xuan Lie was suspicious. Would a ruthless woman sing such a sad love song?
Ji Qingyan forced a smile. Xuan Lie didn't know the truth, but so what if he did? After all, that person was Xuan Lie's mother, and Princess Yong Ping was actually a pitiful woman.
Therefore, Ji Qingyan replied," In the kingdom of love, everyone is selfish. My mother and I are very similar. We are both good at using our appearance to achieve our goals, but the only thing we will not sell is our feelings."”
Thus, Ji Shiniang loved Xuan Qing deeply, and he also loved Xuan Lie deeply.
"Even I was almost bewitched by you, Qingyan.”"I'm a bit luckier than those people who fought for you in the inn. I know your true face. I was attracted by your beautiful face and was destined to be destroyed."”
"Do you hate my attention-grabbing face?" Ji Qingyan asked innocently.”
"What…what do you think?" Xuan Lie asked.
"If you hate this face, then I will destroy it.”Ji Qingyan said.
"Stop joking." Xuan Lie thought he was joking, but Ji Qingyan took out her dagger and slashed at her own cheek!!
"What are you doing!" Xuan Lie stopped him in time.
"I'm not joking. I've never been.”Ji Qingyan looked into Xuan Lie's eyes.
"I understand." "But you don't have to hurt yourself to prove it!" Xuan Lie said emotionally.”
"Would you believe me if I didn't do this? This is the real me. I'm willful and awkward. I can only use this method to prove my sincerity to you.”
"Azure flame…"
Xuan Lie held Ji Qingyan's hand. Could he trust Ji Qingyan again? Although he really wanted to believe him.
"I love you, Xuan Lie. I can even use my life to prove it.”Ji Qingyan grabbed Xuan Lie's hand to suppress her pounding heart.
"You don't have to use your life to prove it. I believe that you are sincere.”Xuan Lie hugged him and said.
Xuan Lie decided to trust Ji Qingyan again, but if Ji Qingyan lied to him again, he would never be able to pull himself together again.
"Lie, are you really willing to believe me?”"Have you forgiven me?" Ji Qingyan asked happily.”
"Should I forgive you? No, I won't forgive you. I want you to repay me with the rest of your life.”
"Then what's the problem?"
Using a lifetime to pay for it was the sweetest punishment for Ji Qingyan.
They hugged each other tightly, only having each other in their eyes and hearts, until a group of uninvited guests disturbed them.
The hooligans who harassed Ji Qingyan in the inn didn't give up. They chased after Ji Qingyan and Xuan Lie.
"Humph! We've finally found you. You're deliberately trying to sow discord between us brothers, that's why you want us to duel, right?”The leader of the hooligans asked angrily.
"You only realized it now? Idiot." Ji Qingyan hid behind Xuan Lie and said,""Xuan Lie, I'll leave these people to you.”
Xuan Lie sighed, feeling that his life was really bitter. He still had to clean up the aftermath for Ji Qingyan.
However, there was nothing he could do about it.
Will this happen often in the future? Since Ji Qingyan had caused trouble, he had to clean up the mess for her.
"Brat, you better move aside." The hooligans shouted in unison.
"No, I won't move." Xuan Lie glanced at Ji Qingyan and replied,""He is the person I love the most. If you want to hurt him, you have to go through me first.”
"You're courting death!"
The group of hooligans thought that they could easily deal with Xuan Lie because they had the advantage in numbers, so they swarmed up.
Unfortunately, their wishful thinking was wrong. Even if they all attacked together, they were still not Xuan Lie's match.
Ji Qingyan looked at Xuan Lie, who had the upper hand, and deliberately shouted,""Wow! As expected of my Lie. Your skills are really amazing. I admire you too much!”
Amidst Ji Qingyan's praise, the group of arrogant hooligans could only flee.
"Lie, capture that leader!”Ji Qingyan shouted at Xuan Lie.
Xuan Lie immediately caught the leader of the hooligans.
"Hey! Why do you want to escape? Aren't you very arrogant?" Ji Qingyan didn't forget to mock the gangster leader.
That person felt even more ashamed when he heard that.
"Azure Flames."
Ji Qingyan didn't want him to catch the leader of the hooligans just to tease him, right?
Ji Qingyan told Xuan Lie to calm down, then turned to the leader of the hooligans and asked,""Tell me honestly, who sent you here?”
"Eh?" "Qingyan, how do you know someone sent him?" Xuan Lie asked in surprise.”
"Because I found out that he had been following us since we left the camp.”Ji Qingyan replied.
"Humph! So you've already discovered my actions.”The leader of the hooligans gritted his teeth and said," You can kill me or torture me if you want. But don't think I'll tell you who the mastermind is!"”
"Is that so?" Ji Qingyan smiled coldly." I'll definitely have a way to make you say it.”
"What…what are you doing?"
As the leader of the hooligans screamed in panic, Ji Qingyan took a pill and threw it into his mouth.
"Do you know what I made you eat?”Ji Qingyan smiled evilly.
The leader of the hooligans shook his head with a pale face.
"What did you make me eat?"
"Poison, of course!" "If you don't take the antidote within two hours, your entire body will fester and you'll die from the poison," Ji Qingyan added.”
"You…"
At this moment, Ji Qingyan was like a demon.
"Quickly tell me who ordered you to kill me, and I'll give you the antidote. If you're late, you won't be able to save me!”
"I'll talk, I'll talk!" The leader of the hooligans finally gave in." The person who instructed me was the daughter of the prime minister.”
"Xue Mingzhu?" Ji Qingyan raised her eyebrows.
"Mingzhu?" Xuan Lie simply couldn't believe it. How could a daughter of a prestigious family do such a thing?
"She said that if I killed Ji Qingyan, she would give me ten thousand gold taels. Now that I've told you, give me the antidote!”
"Don't worry, bring us to see Xue Mingzhu first, and I'll give you the antidote.”Ji Qingyan offered another condition.
"Alright."
In order to get the antidote, the leader of the hooligans was willing to do anything.
"What are you up to this time?”Xuan Lie asked Ji Qingyan suspiciously.
"Of course, I'll give him a taste of his own medicine!”Ji Qingyan smiled coldly." I won't let go of those who want to harm me.”
This was Ji Qingyan's way of living!#
