"Hmph! I thought the prince would help Young Master Mo, but I didn't expect that when things came to pass, he was nothing more than a cowed turtle!" Zhao Yong looked at the closed door and walked away with a roll of his sleeves.
Several guards looked at Mingyue's door and were also confused.
This man of mine is very concerned every time he hears about Mr. Mo. What happened tonight?!
Doubts are doubts, and who dares to ask questions without authorization? He just retreats to his position and continues his duty as a guard.
====================
Misty jungle.
When Mo Li woke up in a daze, he felt that his throat was so dry that it could burst into flames.
"water!"
She whispered instinctively.
After a moment, someone parted her lips, and then a cool liquid slid into her throat.
The water fell into her throat, and her consciousness became somewhat clearer.
She opened her heavy eyelids with some difficulty, and what came into her sight was a chaotic night.
There was a vague figure in front of me, but it was blurry and hard to see clearly.
"Mingyue?!"
She spoke weakly.
"It seems that I have disappointed you this time!" A slightly hoarse voice came over, with a hint of joking.
That voice was very familiar, and its tone was somewhat similar to Mingyue's, but it wasn't him.
Li Qiye blinked, and his blurred vision finally became clear bit by bit.
Then, she finally saw the person clearly.
Hair like ink, eyes like blood, slightly blue lips...
The man in front of me is clearly the Ghost King.
"It's you!" There was obvious surprise in Mo Li's tone.
"It seems that I am more surprised than happy?!" the Ghost King asked with a smile, the white fangs exposed outside his lips shining slightly in the night.
"I just didn't expect it to be you!" Li Li also laughed, catching the heartbeat coming from her ears and knowing that she was still in his arms. She subconsciously wanted to get up, but her whole body was limp and without any strength.
"Don't move!" The Ghost King tightened his grip on her left arm slightly, and brought the water bag to her mouth with his right hand, "Drink more!"
Mo Li followed her words by drinking some water. After the Ghost King removed the water bag, she spoke again, "Thank you!"
"We are friends, so there is no need to be polite!" The Ghost King put away the water bag and took out a handkerchief to help her wipe the water stains on the corners of her lips, "You like him very much?!"
"Who?!" Li Li asked back.
"Mingyue!" The Ghost King raised his lips slightly, "When I carried you away, did you call his name?!"
"I called his name?!" Li Li asked without answering.
The Ghost King nodded.
Li Li pursed his lips and said nothing.
She actually knows Mingyue's name. Is she really attracted to that evildoer?!
"Don't make a sound!"
Before she could come up with an answer, the Ghost King had already whispered and carried her up to the tree crown.
Her face was close to his chest, and through his warm thin clothes, she could clearly hear his heartbeat, and a very light fragrance overflowed into her nose.
The scent seemed familiar.
"Master, where are you, Master!"
In the woods not far away, the baby dragged his short legs out with difficulty, looking around doubtfully with his little eyes.
Obviously I just felt the master's breath nearby, how could there be no one?!
Li Qiye immediately recognized the baby's voice. Before she could speak, the ghost king had already jumped off the tree crown with her in his arms and landed not far in front of the baby.
"Master!" Seeing them, the baby's little eyes showed joy, and he immediately twisted his hips and rushed over, looking at Mo Li who was held in the arms of the Ghost King with concern, "Master, are you okay?!"
