Lance retreated from Leng Xiao's room. He closed the door gently, thinking about the conversation with Leng Xiao just now, and turned around absentmindedly.
As soon as he turned around, he met those dark eyes. Without any time to avoid them, the other person's thin lips opened and closed slightly, "Why are you here?"
Lance felt guilty for a while, and immediately pretended to be relaxed and asked, "Your Highness, why don't you go and rest at such a late hour?"
Ru Mo's eyes narrowed, and his cold voice was unusually cold, "Answer me, what are you doing with the president?"
"I……"
"Who's out there?"
Leng Xiao's gloomy voice came out quietly.
Leng Lingjun frowned, "It's me, Leng Ling. Mr. President, are you asleep? There are some things I want to talk to you about."
The other party was silent for a few seconds, and then refused, "I've gone to bed. If you have anything to do, we can talk about it tomorrow."
"Yes, then I'll come see you tomorrow and disturb your rest. I'm really sorry."
There was no emotion in the formulaic tone of Leng Ling's voice. After he finished speaking, he glanced at Lance meaningfully and said, "Adjutant Lance, it's getting late. You should go back and rest quickly."
Lance didn't dare to look at Leng Ling at all. When he saw Leng Ling looking at him, he quickly looked away, "Yes, Your Highness, I will go back immediately."
After saying that, he started to leave, but the other party raised his hand to block his way.
Lance's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked cautiously, "Your Highness?"
Leng Ling retracted her hand, then turned around and said Leng Buding, "Come here."
The previous glance made Lance feel like he had nothing to hide. When he heard the other party ordering him, he clenched his hands and lowered his head to follow.
On an early summer night, the cool breeze blows slowly.
Perhaps it was because of the light rain that had fallen before. There was a damp smell in the air, and some cool night wind penetrated into the collar, making it extremely cold.
Leng Ling took Lance to the balcony on the second floor. He leaned against the wall with his arms folded, "Tell me, what were you and the president talking about just now?"
The young man in front of him had sharp eyes and was exuding low pressure, which made Lance, who was already cold all the more, feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar and was chilled from the inside out.
"Your Highness...it's nothing...just...just some routine matters. The president wants me to report to him..."
Lance lowered his head, not daring to look into Leng Ling's eyes at all. He hesitated for a long time before he finished speaking.
The endless dark lake looked at the young man with his head lowered. Leng Ling's voice was calm and calm, "I don't know what your purpose is for following me, and I don't want to pursue what happened just now. I just want to
Let me tell you, as a soldier in Lanson, you must be loyal to your country. No matter what you do, you must always remember your identity."
Lance was slightly surprised. It turned out that he had known for a long time that his purpose was impure. However, he only wanted to find out the truth about his father's death and never wanted to do anything that would harm the interests of the country.
"Your Highness, you misunderstood. I am a Lanson soldier. I love my country deeply and will never do anything that goes against my beliefs and country. But there are some things that I really can't tell you. Please
You can understand me."
Leng Ling's voice was light, "If you think so, that would be great."
Leng Ling's eyes were cold, "Then tell me, why does the president want you to spy on me?"
"this……"
Lance was stunned. He had promised the president that he would never tell a third person about the transaction with him, not even his own mother.
Now, Leng Ling wants to get things out of her mouth. If she tells him, she will never know the truth about her father's death, and her sick mother will not be able to recover well.
Leng Ling's eyes were sharp, "Answer me."
Lance bit his lower lip hard, "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I can't..."
Seeing the other party showing such a painful expression, Leng Ling turned his head and said, "If you don't want to say it, then I won't force you. If you let me know that what you did harmed Lansen's interests, I will definitely not let you go.
"
"yes."
A trace of disappointment flashed in Leng Ling's eyes, and he waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
Lance breathed a sigh of relief and bowed slightly, "Then I'm leaving. Your Highness, please have a good rest."
"kindness."
Leng Ling leaned against the wall, closed her eyes, and furrowed her beautiful brows. When Lance turned to leave, she uttered a sentence, "Don't let the president know about your affairs and me."
"yes."
Lance left the balcony with deep thoughts, his handsome face gradually became full of meanings.
Your Highness, please forgive me.
I just want to find out the truth about my father's death. The president said that he did not die of natural causes, but died of poisoning. And only the president knows the murderer.
Now, I can only make you distrust and doubt me. As long as I can complete the task for the president, I can avenge my father. By then, I will tell you everything.
But please rest assured that I will never do anything to you or Lieutenant Lien. Because I have found the person I really need to follow, and that person is you.
