Chapter 13 – The Idiot Says (One)
Li Si, as expected, had left…… only, if she looked through the crack in the door, wouldn't the opposite party see her as well? However, no matter which way she looked at him, he was devastatingly beautiful==
"The little lady has arrived, but what is she doing, hiding outside?" Li You raised his eyebrow, laughing, expressively seductive, with eyes emanating watery glints.
She had been discovered. Yan Xuan wasn't too disappointed, really, from the first time she saw him in the flower garden, she knew that his martial arts skills were extraordinary. Otherwise, how would he know that there was someone outside the window?
"I came back to find something." She confidently pushed open the door and strolled in, facing the table covered with exquisite food, forcing herself to not drool.
"Hungry?" Li You used his right hand to lift his cup, the corner of his mouth twisting upwards, "the little lady's actually quite brave, brave enough to come back alone."
She sat down with no trace of politeness, "the rooms next to us have people, you wouldn't dare to do anything to me."
"If I really wanted to do anything, do you really think I would even give you the opportunity to open your mouth to scream for help?" Li You looked at her, laughing quietly, his words as if a needle filled with poison had stabbed Yan Xuan.
She trembled on the inside, but she looked calm and collected on the outside, "here's the thing, if there really is an accident in this room, you're not getting off without taking responsibility either."
Li You didn't mention it again, sipping a bit of his wine, his left hand tapping on the purple, wooden table, emitting a lovely noise.
If anything happened in this room, others may not even suspect him…… he was on no shortage of tricks.
"You have my token, don't you? I've come here, what do you want, go ahead, say it." Yan Xuan scratched her head, feeling a little restless.
"Why do you think I took your token?"
"That token has been with me for many years, if it has disappeared than I will notice almost immediately, which leads to the fact that the token was with me when I came in the grand visitor's tower. I tied my token very tightly, unless…… unless it somehow grew legs of its own and ran off." Yan Xuan stared intensely at the evildoer across from her, her tone firm. "When I was heading out, I pa.s.sed your side."
Perhaps it was that time, she feared.
Because of his skill, leaving not a single trace was simple for him, but he may have wanted to intentionally make her suspect him. He must have wanted her to come back, which was one of the reasons why she didn't bring butler Tang.
"Little lady, I finally understand why you haven't been kidnapped and sold now." It really wasn't dumb, Li You sighed, as if disappointed, putting the token on the table. "I was going to cheat you out of here, but it seems impossible."
Yan Xuan walked over and picked up the token, retying it to herself. Li You reached out his hand to grab her shoulder and push her down to sit next to him. "It's boring to drink by oneself, I could only use this way to make you come back."
She didn't say anything. She wanted to stand up, but the pressure on her shoulder truly was formidable.
She whimpered a little…… Learning that much kung fu, it did no use now.
"I…… don't drink." Okay then, she would lie. Before, she drank two cups, but after she drank those two cups, she didn't remember what had happened.
"Scared of me?" Li You asked, withdrawing his hold on her.
Her……. Scared of him?? Yan Xuan was a little perplexed. Frankly, the first time she met him, he used the excuse of being drunk to hara.s.s her. The second time, he bullied her, and almost made er lose her life. Now……
She didn't dare to drink while she was in his presence.
——The fifth highness…… he was a pitiful child. For his whole life, other than the imperial concubine, no one had ever touched him, I didn't even get close to him, always keeping my distance.
Aunt Ling's words from that day echoed in her ears. The Li You next to her, somehow, she was almost able to see what was in his eyes…… loneliness.
Li You wasn't that type of person, right? ……Yan Xuan thought, suddenly wanting to trust him, her heroic spirit soaring up. "Drink, drink, why would I be scared of you?"
Li You blinked a little, the corner of his mouth suddenly hooking up, letting out a quiet, enchanting laugh. For a moment, the world lost its colour, leaving only him in al his magnificence.
Yan Xuan averted her eyes, not looking at him, filling a cup with wine, tipping her head back and downing the cup.
Yep, she must have forgot something. Even if Li You wasn't going to do anything to her, then what if she herself…… had taken the opportunity to hara.s.s him?
Yes, there was a huge possibility. Yan Xuan shook her head, trying her best to keep her head clear, but a burst of omnipresent murkiness enveloped her.
Arghhhh I left for my vacation two days ago and I forgot that yesterday was Thursday…. sorry this chapter is late and I didn’t do the last chapter to fill in for what I missed so I’ll be missing a day (for those of you who don’t know I’m going to start just posting on Mondays and Thursdays until I have the time and ability to increase upload speed) but I’m going to be missing a chapter on the 7th that I’ll do my best to finish when I get back… Sorry in advance~
