Lian Youyou smiled at the hairpin box in Fu Mingrui's hand for a while, then looked at his blushing face and embarrassment, and took it from him without hesitation: "Okay, just consider it as your bribe, I'll accept it. If you have problems that you can't solve in the future, you can come to me." Lian Youyou looked at Fu Mingrui with a smile and winked at him.
Fu Mingrui's face became redder and redder, his heartbeat accelerated as he turned his face away, tensed his body and nodded unnaturally: "Tonight... I broke into the Nine Gates... I'm ashamed..." Thinking of how he and Duanmu Qingchen, the idiot prince, climbed over the wall and sneaked into the Nine Gates tonight, Fu Mingrui was so ashamed that he couldn't raise his head to look at Lian Youyou.
Lian Youyou didn't mind and said, "Actually, I knew it when you came."
Fu Mingrui sighed secretly in his heart. As expected, Lian Youyou knew everything. It seemed that she did not want Duanmu Qingchen to find out the secret on purpose. After all, they were spending the Mid-Autumn Festival together, so why would they let others disturb them
But what Fu Mingrui was thinking was not what Lian Youyou was thinking.
Lian Youyou smiled mischievously: "I want to play with you first, hahaha-"
Seeing Lian Youyou's big wicked smile, Fu Mingrui immediately realized that he was overthinking. Not letting them in was Lian Youyou's way of teasing Duanmu Qingchen.
Lian Youyou's smile seemed to be still recalling the pleasure of teasing Duanmu Qingchen, "I had planned to let that idiot prince in when he was desperate, but I didn't expect..." Lian Youyou frowned, turned to look at Duanmu Qingchen standing beside her, and shook her head repeatedly, "Tsk tsk tsk tsk... This is boring~~~" Lian Youyou's eyes showed disgust and boredom, and she was displeased that the other Duanmu Qingchen opened the door without permission and destroyed her fun.
Lin Tingjun is such a bad guy. Although she knew he would come sooner or later, she didn't expect it to be so soon. Humph, Lian Youyou couldn't help but laugh in her heart. This also means that this guy can't hold on any longer.
But I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. This shows how upsetting the above things are.
Lian Youyou turned back to look at Fu Mingrui again, her eyes became serious, and even contained a warning: "You guessed correctly, this person is no longer Duanmu Qingchen, but don't ask me who he is, anything."
Fu Mingrui stared at Lian Youyou in a daze. The blush on his face faded away because of Lian Youyou's sudden deep expression, and his expression also became serious.
"I want to talk to him alone, otherwise... I'm afraid he will destroy the world. You can go in and find Xiao Linzi." Lian Youyou tapped Fu Mingrui's arm with the hairpin box, then turned around to look at Duanmu Qingchen's gloomy back, "Let's go~~ I'm just full, tsk, I'm quite irritated after eating too much mutton noodles, let's do something interesting with you to relieve my heat~~~"
Let off steam...
Fu Mingrui's heart suddenly tightened because of these two words, and he fell into inexplicable irritation again, burning with all kinds of unspeakable emotions, his heart was anxious.
Duanmu Qingchen in front of him had already turned around, saying one word: "Okay."
The moment he turned around, Fu Mingrui saw the golden divine light emanating from Duanmu Qingchen's eyes, which was as fiery as a torch and more like a burning flame.
In an instant, he felt like he was nailed to the wall and couldn't move! His whole body trembled because of those eyes. That tremor was like the most primitive and instinctive fear coming out of the abyss, which made him feel deeply terrified when he looked into that person's eyes.
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid.” Lian Youyou smiled and patted Fu Mingrui’s stunned face. “I’ll return your silly brother to you later~~~ and I’ll clear his memory as well, so you won’t remember anything~~~” After Lian Youyou said that, she walked leisurely towards the exit.
Duanmu Qingchen walked past Fu Mingrui with a gloomy and indifferent look on his face, without even looking at him, with an arrogant attitude, as if everyone except Lian Youyou in front of him was an ant. He passed by Fu Mingrui like a fierce and murderous god, and every step he took seemed to be stepping on countless evil ghosts, crushing their screams and wails, and also crushing their three souls and six spirits!
Fu Mingrui didn't know who was on Duanmu Qingchen's body, but this person made him feel like he had fallen into an abyss in an instant, falling infinitely, and being gradually swallowed up by the fear of darkness. He didn't hear what Lian Youyou said to him.
From birth till now, Fu Mingrui had never been afraid of anything. But today, he was truly afraid. He felt what it was like to fear the gods!
"Do you want to come in?" Suddenly, Lin Tingjun's voice became his life-saving straw, turning into the hand that grabbed him on the edge of the cliff, pulling him back to reality from the darkness.
He came back to look at Lin Tingjun, only to find that his hands were extremely cold, just like the corpse he had touched!
"Humph." Lin Tingjun couldn't help but smile as he looked at him, "Come in, have a drink and warm yourself up. Youyou is with that man, so she won't be back so soon."
Fu Mingrui looked at Lin Tingjun in a daze. Lian Youyou had clearly left with another man, but there was no jealousy on Lin Tingjun's face. Was this Lin Tingjun Lian Youyou's lover? Why did he not care that Lian Youyou was alone with another man? Didn't he hear what Lian Youyou said to vent her anger
Or maybe Lin Tingjun is a magnanimous person. He trusts and respects Lian Youyou, so he won't be upset just because Lian Youyou leaves with another man.
Compared with Lin Tingjun's calmness and generosity, Fu Mingrui felt ashamed and embarrassed. He was already upset and irritable just knowing that Lian Youyou was with Lin Tingjun. He, Fu Mingrui, really didn't look like a man.
It was true that the emperor was not anxious, but the eunuchs were. As Lian Youyou's lover, he was not anxious or annoyed, so why should Fu Mingrui be anxious again? What was he annoyed about? Since Lin Tingjun was calm, it was even more clear that Lian Youyou's departure with that man was not a tryst, but... their private affairs.
Thinking of this, Fu Mingrui's heart finally calmed down a little. Now that Lian Youyou was not with Lin Tingjun, the waves of jealousy in his heart slowly calmed down.
But Duanmu Qingchen's eyes that spewed golden fire still gave him great shock and lingering fear.
There was still no trace of blood on his face, and his hands still hadn't regained their temperature. He nodded to Lin Tingjun, and followed him into the secret realm. The lotus fragrance in front of him and the yellow full moons floating in the air told him that this was definitely not the mortal realm.
Fu Mingrui had never seen anything that he found unbelievable until he was a child. However, Lian Youyou's arrival brought him more and more unbelievable things, which continuously impacted his original concepts and the world in his heart.
He was surprised again. The white jade bridge, the ethereal fairy air, the snow lotus in the pond, the lotus as big as a bed, and the full moons hanging in the air without any rope.
Everything made it impossible for him to believe that what he saw before his eyes was the real world. (To be continued)
