Ye Lan nodded without thinking: "I told Leng Aotian that you went to Yanjing."
Gu Manman paused, her beautiful eyes full of confusion: "Why? Didn't we agree at the beginning that you would not tell Leng Aotian my whereabouts, and I would never come back?"
Ye Lan lowered his head: "I'm sorry... I underestimated your position in his heart. I thought that as long as you left and gave him some time, he would forget you."
"But……"
It turned out that Leng Aotian reacted immediately after Gu Manman left. He quickly sent people to search all over Country M, but no trace of Gu Manman was found.
In the end, he quickly cast suspicion on Ye Lan.
That night, Leng Aotian almost killed Ye Lan.
In desperation, Ye Lan admitted that she was the one who let Gu Manman go.
After hearing her words, Leng Aotian breathed a sigh of relief.
Because it was Ye Lan who let Gu Manman go, it meant that Gu Manman was not kidnapped or in danger. On the contrary, he still knew where she was.
After learning about Gu Manman's whereabouts, Leng Aotian did not rush to look for her immediately.
On the contrary, the order in country m should be restored as before. At the very least, the current situation in country m is not as chaotic as before.
After doing all this, he rushed to Yanjing with Ye Lan. After searching for a long time, he saw Gu Manman in danger.
Gu Manman paused. What she didn't expect was that so many things had happened during this period of time.
"Gu Manman, I think you are very important to him, right? Otherwise, why would he listen to your words before you left and restore Country M to its previous appearance before coming to see you again?"
Ye Lan lowered her eyes and said softly.
Gu Manman's body trembled: "What?"
She shook her head: "But Sister Lan, don't you like Leng Aotian? Why are you saying these things to me now..."
Ye Lan stood up from the stool and looked at Gu Manman.
She stopped and turned around when she reached the door: "Gu Manman, do you know why Leng Aotian didn't kill me back then?"
Gu Manman was stunned: "Because he wants to know my whereabouts from your mouth?"
Ye Lan shrugged self-deprecatingly: "There may be this reason, but the main reason is not this. He only said one sentence to me at the beginning, that is, this sentence, I will remember it for the rest of my life!"
"What are you talking about?" Gu Manman pursed her lips.
Ye Lan opened the door of the ward: "He said..."
'That woman spent so much time trying to save you. If she kills you, she will blame me, right?'
Gu Manman paused, but before she could react, Ye Lan had already walked out of the ward.
From that moment on, she truly understood what Leng Aotian was thinking.
He fell in love with Gu Manman in a short period of time, and she couldn't hate Gu Manman.
She thought maybe Gu Manman really had this ability.
In order to stay by his side, she chose to be a loyal follower. Even if she could not get his attention for the rest of her life, she would still be by his side.
"Master Leng, you can go in."
Ye Lan said to Leng Aotian who was smoking a cigarette at the door.
Leng Aotian put out the cigarette in his hand, but had no intention of going in.
"She doesn't seem to want to see me, so forget it and go in and talk to her."
Ye Lan paused, then smiled and shook his head: "Master Leng, there is no such thing. Gu Manman said she is very grateful to you. Go in, it will be okay."
Seeing the smile on her face, he was stunned.
He stamped out the cigarette ashes on the ground, then straightened his hair and clothes and looked at Ye Lan.
"May I?"
Ye Lan was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and chuckled.
She gave Leng Aotian a thumbs up, and then nodded repeatedly: "Handsome, very handsome! You can go with ease, Mr. Leng!"
Leng Aotian coughed twice before turning and entering the ward.
Seeing his back turning and leaving, the smile on Ye Lan's face gradually solidified and then disappeared.
She sighed softly, finally leaned against the wall, and smoked a cigarette like Leng Aotian did before.
Leng Aotian sat back on the stool: "Gu Manman, I will give you time to prepare, but you must leave here with me and return to Country M."
Gu Manman clenched her palms, and then breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "Leng Aotian, I am very grateful to you. If it weren't for you, I might have died in country M. There would be no chance of returning to Yanjing."
He pursed his lips tightly, as if waiting for her next words.
She continued: "I will always remember your kindness to me. However, I can't follow you back. Since I have made up my mind to come back, I have something to do! So, I can't leave!"
"I can wait for you, I can wait for you to finish everything here, and then follow me back."
Leng Aotian continued, his cold eyes full of patience.
Gu Manman was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "These things are not a matter of time."
He suddenly stood up and held her arms with both hands: "I will always remember what you said before you left! I have now restored order in country m. I believe it won't be long before country m can open the channels to various countries."
Exchanges between countries! Everything will develop for the better by then, which is what Luna hopes!"
"It's just that I don't understand. I've done everything, why can't you leave with me?"
Gu Manman showed him a gentle smile: "Leng Aotian, you are really powerful. You have led country M on the right path in a short period of time. But I still can't leave with you."
He paused, and finally sat down feebly: "You woman! Don't you know that you are a disaster body?! You can attract disasters at any time wherever you go! Just like today, if I hadn't arrived in time, you
Already..."
She waved her arm towards him: "I'm fine. If you don't believe me, look at it. Am I not fine?"
"This is not Country M."
He lowered his head.
She paused: "What?"
Leng Aotian raised his head again and looked at her: "This is not Country M. I can't control it at any time! I can't guarantee your safety, do you understand?"
Gu Manman was stunned. It turned out that he had been insisting that she follow him back to Country M because he was afraid that she would be harmed, and he did not have enough ability to protect her?
Her beautiful eyes showed the slightest touch: "Thank you Leng Aotian, but it's not as chaotic as Country M. I'll be fine, don't worry."
Leng Aotian only realized what he had just said.
His face turned red uncontrollably, and he quickly turned away his head and explained feebly.
"What do you mean by that? I didn't say I was worried about you, I just thought you were so stupid that no one would pick up your body when the time comes."
