"Then go. Since they want to start a war, then we will fight against them. Ling, just remember that I will always be on your side."
"Well," Leng Ling responded in a low voice. He felt very uncomfortable and curved the corners of his lips sourly, "Why does it have to be like this? Why can't we live in peace? Do we have to fight to the death?"
Li En looked at the sadness flashing in Leng Ling's eyes and persuaded him softly, "I know you hate war, but if they don't abide by the agreement, then we can't be merciful. Although war will bring blood and killings. However,
If we can defeat them, those brief moments of pain will lead to lasting peace, and that's the only thing we can do."
Listening to the man's words, Leng Ling's beautiful eyes dimmed.
He is right, a peaceful life is only temporary. As long as the invaders keep eyeing their country, there will be no permanent peace in Lanson.
Since returning to Sarat, I have been avoiding this question.
Valencia's clutches have already reached the border of Cossel. If I don't take up arms to fight them at this time, there will really be no hope.
"You are right," Leng Ling secretly clenched his fists, "We must fight, no matter how high the cost, we must fight."
There was a hint of smile in the corner of Li En's heroic eyebrows, "This is my Ling, don't be afraid of harm, don't be afraid of sacrifice, pick up weapons and fight. No matter where I go, I will always follow you."
"kindness."
The summer wind, carrying the faint fragrance of flowers, slowly rippled in the air, ruffling the short black hair.
Leng Ling's clenched hand loosened, and he slowly raised his hand to smooth his messy hair, which was firmly held by a warm and wide palm.
"!"
The other party's sudden move frightened Leng Ling. He looked around in panic, trying to break away.
"Don't be afraid, there is no one."
After making sure that no one else was present, he let the other person's palm wrap around him and move it little by little to the other person's chest.
An uninhibited smile slowly appeared on Li En's handsome face. He moved closer to observe the other person's pink face, as well as the lightly pursed light-colored thin lips, and quietly moved closer.
The shallow kiss was no longer as fiery and long as before, but instead it lasted like a dragonfly touching water.
Maybe because he was afraid of being seen by outsiders in the garden, and because Li En didn't want to cross Leng Ling's bottom line, he could only steal the fish quietly.
Thick and long eyelashes swept across her eyelids. Leng Ling tilted her head with slightly red cheeks and moved her lips, "You are so presumptuous. You are not allowed to do this outside without my consent."
The weak accusation was no longer cold and harsh, but it was like the spice between lovers. Lien felt happy when he heard it, "Yes."
Another breeze passed over the garden, picking up some petals. A few petals seemed to be naughty elves in Leng Ling's messed-up hair, and they refused to leave.
Li En reached out to touch Leng Ling's hair, but the other party thought he was going to make some intimate gesture again and glared at him angrily.
"There are flower petals in my hair," Lien curled his lips evilly and spread his palms like a magic trick.
I saw a few pink and purple petals lying quietly on Li En's palm. The delicate petals were so fragile that they seemed to break with just a gentle pinch.
"You smell so good, just like the scent of these flower petals."
Leng Ling was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at the tall man in front of him. The deep love in his golden pupils was undisguised.
He was a little embarrassed by the other party's hot gaze, and lowered his eyes shyly.
The familiar scene brought back Leng Ling's childhood memories, and the first encounter with this man ten years ago flashed before his eyes again.
Staring at these petals, he raised his hand to take one, and picked up the soft petals with his slender fingertips. He was a little lost.
The weak Lansen is like these petals, so beautiful, but fragile and powerless, being toyed with by the invaders.
As a member of the Leng family, in order to protect our beautiful country, make our people prosperous and healthy forever, and fulfill the last wishes of our father and ancestors, this is what we should do.
"When we return to Kessel, the first thing we need to do is to strengthen our combat effectiveness. We must not let those people underestimate us."
"As commanded."
The two of them left the garden one after another. Li En said he had to go out for something, while Leng Ling wanted to go outside for a walk alone.
As soon as he walked out of the presidential palace, he was stopped by someone from behind.
"Your Highness, please wait."
Hearing this old but still calm and powerful voice, Leng Ling turned around and said, "Elder Luo La, you haven't left yet?"
Elder Laura's eyes were calm, and his deep pupils were full of meanings, "Your Highness, I want to talk to you. I wonder if you are free now?"
Leng Ling lowered his eyes and thought deeply, "I was just thinking of going out for a walk and having a drink together."
"yes."
Leng Ling got into Elder Laura's car and came to a nearby coffee shop.
Spacious store, elegant and simple decoration, well-proportioned store furnishings.
The female voice was singing Lansen's traditional folk songs, and the soft and magnetic voice was as sweet as the whispers between lovers.
The rich and mellow aroma of coffee floated in their noses, and the two of them sat in a private room.
Elder Rolla got straight to the point, "Your Highness, in fact, I do not agree with the decision of the President and Admiral Kaman on this matter."
Leng Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, "How do you say that?"
"I haven't read that coded message, and I've never heard of the Valencian troops stationed over Cossel before. They didn't fully investigate Cossel's situation, and they only relied on a vague
I just asked you to pass the coded message, but I don’t think it’s appropriate to do so.”
"Are you saying that no one knows about Kessel and that the secret message came suddenly?"
Elder Lola nodded solemnly, "Yes, there are also senior officials from the military and the presidential palace inside the Presbytery. I wouldn't be unaware of such a big change. Although the Valencians have been eyeing our Lanson, they will never let anything go.
opportunity to invade us. However, as far as I know, the current domestic situation in Valencia is not very stable. You know, most people don’t like war, even Valencians.”
