After tossing and turning for a long time, I took a deep breath and said, "That's it, I'm leaving. You...you should take care of yourself."
The moment I turned around, I burst into tears.
I don't know why I feel so uncomfortable. Is it because I saw Yan Xiaoqing being beaten so badly? Or is Liu Chi forced to be tied to Yan Xiaoqing, trapped in this dark palace for many years?
I have no idea.
Speaking of which, isn’t this all what I want?
In order to have one less enemy, I joined forces with Liu Chi to imprison Yan Xiaoqing. But why am I so sad and sad?
Just as he was about to go out, Yan Xiaoqing behind him suddenly said: "Stop."
I couldn't wait to turn around and even looked at him expectantly: "What's wrong?"
At this moment, I will happily accept whatever Yan Xiaoqing says, even if he scolds me, it doesn't matter, as long as he is willing!
Liu Chi asked suspiciously: "What's the matter with you?"
Yan Xiaoqing raised his chin: "Liu Chi, please go out. I have something to say to Changting alone."
I quickly wiped away the wet tears on my face while no one was paying attention, pretending as if nothing happened.
Liu Chi frowned, but before he could say his refusal, I intercepted him: "It's okay, you can go out."
It seems that I am used to giving orders to Liuchi, and I actually have the feeling that no matter what I say, Liuchi will obey it without any intention of disobedience.
This time was no exception. Liu Chi hummed, turned around and went out, even closing the iron door.
Yan Xiaoqing and I were the only two people left in the huge prison cell. The air seemed to be stagnant. Our breathing sounds echoed in the silence, but no one spoke first.
This seems to be a silent tug of war.
Finally, I broke the silence: "What are you going to say to me?"
Yan Xiaoqing sneered first: "What? Are you afraid that I will eat you?"
The same lazy tone as always made me feel more friendly.
I couldn't help but relax my tense nerves and slowly approached him. But at this moment, Yan Xiaoqing shouted coldly: "Don't come over."
I was shocked: "What's wrong?"
Yan Xiaoqing moved her head with difficulty and said indifferently: "You have to see the scars on Gu's body clearly to be satisfied?"
Some people are so proud that they don't want anyone to see the pain they suffer.
Just like Xia Yan will never tell me how the layers of old scars on his back came from.
The same is true for Yan Xiaoqing.
"Okay, I'll stand here and won't go over."
After another brief silence, Yan Xiaoqing spoke first: "I have already done what I promised you, and now it's your turn to do something for me."
I blinked and asked with some uncertainty: "You want me to help you escape?"
If this is the case, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help him, let alone take him away. If one day I'm locked up here myself, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to get out.
Yan Xiaoqing sneered, as if he was laughing at my overestimation of my abilities. He also expected that I didn't have this ability.
"You think too highly of yourself."
This sentence hurt my self-esteem a little, but it doesn't matter, he was hurt so deeply, and now he should use me to vent his anger.
I pretended to be all ears: "Then what do you want me to do for you?"
"Go to Yan Xitong and tell him where Gu is currently being held."
