Xiao Ling'er blinked her big watery eyes and asked in a sweet voice: "Uncle, are you leaving? Then will you come back?"
For some reason, Yu Yi's cold heart felt like it was melted by the sunshine when he heard the voice of this little naughty bun.
He slowly raised his head and said with a slight smile: "Your Highness, I just went out to relax and have no intention of leaving. Don't worry."
In these years, except for the ray of light that gave him in the darkness, he had never tasted any warmth.
And he felt this warmth again in Xiao Ling'er.
So, this girl...is another ray of light for him.
"Uncle, then you come back early. You can't be like mother." Xiao Ling'er lowered her head with a very aggrieved expression. "My mother has been gone for so long. Ling'er misses her so much. Why did she take away her elder brother?"
Don’t take me away?”
Yu Yi was startled and comforted softly: "The queen is also thinking about your safety. There are many people outside who want to deal with you."
"Why?" Xiao Ling'er raised her little face, with a look of ignorance and innocence, "Ling'er has always been good and obedient, and has done nothing wrong. Why do those people want to deal with Ling'er?"
Although Xiao Ling'er is more sensible than ordinary children, she is still just a child. In her mind, as long as she always be kind to others, no one will bully her.
But she obviously did nothing wrong, so why did those bad guys deal with her?
Yu Yi lowered his eyes.
Yes, she did nothing wrong. The people in the shrine didn't want to let her go, and Ruo Xiye... wanted to kill her.
She is just a child. What mistake did she make? Those people want to treat her like this.
"Because..." Yu Yi's voice was trembling, "Some bad people do things for no reason, so, Princess, please stay in the Demon Palace obediently. No one can hurt you in this place."
Little Ling'er bit her finger: "Okay, Ling'er will be obedient. As long as Ling'er is obedient, mother will come back sooner."
This was the first time she had been away from her mother for so long.
When she was in Tianshan, her mother didn't have much time to pay attention to her, but she could always look at her secretly, and she had never been unable to see her for more than half a month...
"Then I'll go and come back."
Yu Yi felt Yun Ruoxi calling him again. He couldn't say anything more to Xiao Ling'er, so he turned to look at her, turned around and walked out of the Demon Palace.
He didn't realize that after his figure disappeared, another old shadow followed closely behind, pursuing the direction he left...
…
On the mountain road, far away, Yu Yi saw a beautiful figure looking around anxiously.
His eyes darkened, revealing countless emotions.
Guilt, helplessness...pain...
But before he could ease his emotions, Yun Ruoxi saw his figure and her eyes suddenly lit up. Immediately, her face darkened and she cursed fiercely.
"Why are you coming so slowly? I've called you several times! Can't you move faster?"
Yun Ruoxi was filled with anger, and she vented all this anger on Yu Yi's head.
When Yu Yi walked in, she slapped him directly, her face turned livid.
Yu Yi did not avoid this slap, but accepted it willingly.
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his handsome face once again returned to its previous cold expression.
"I had something to do just now, so I came late..."
