”How do you feel now?”

Nangong Xuan's lazy and low voice travelled over, the smell of alcohol assaulting his nose, causing him to frown elegantly. He shifted to the left, distancing himself from.

”How many beauties are there in the great hall? Why don't you go and tease them and come here to cool them down?”

The restlessness in his heart from before vanished. For some reason, she actually didn't hate Nangong Xuan's shameless look. With him by her side, she felt a sense of dependence, a hint of reassurance.

”How could those beauties compare to a hint of your beauty? Aren't I here to accompany you? Xi Er, if there's someone in the Eastern County who wants to force you to do something you don't like or can't stay here any longer, can you come with me to the Southern Frontier? In there, if someone dares to harm you, I will definitely dismember his body into ten thousand pieces. ”

Nangong Xuan pulled her head away, and said each word clearly. The beautiful phoenix eyes did not have the slightest hint of playfulness as it earnestly looked at her.

When Bai Zhixi heard his words, her eyes swelled up. She could only bear with the tears that were about to come out. Ye Zichen immediately stood up and walked towards the lakeside as if nothing had happened.

”Alright, when the time comes, Crown Prince Xuan can just stop looking down on me.”

Facing a clear lotus pond water, the cold wind came out, that touched tears scattered along with the wind. She took a deep breath.

”Don't worry, this prince loves beauties so much and doesn't have enough time to care for them, so why would he turn his back on you?” ”Let's go, remember what I said!”

She did not turn her head back, but she felt a strong reluctance to part from her. He could only allow the cold wind to blow against his face and wake him up.

As for Nangong Xuan, she violently gulped down a mouthful of wine as she left with a hint of bitterness in the corner of her mouth. He didn't have any feelings for her, but seeing her like this made him want to protect her. However, when he saw her stubborn appearance, he was helpless.

”Take it. This prince has treasured this handkerchief for over a dozen years. I'll lend it to you to wipe your tears.”

After Nangong Xuan left, she stood at the side of the lotus pond and thought so much that she didn't even know when Mo Feiling arrived. Looking at the picture of a woman with a handkerchief, Bai Zhixi could not help but roll his eyes, and then kicked Mo Feiling's knee. He grabbed the handkerchief in his hand and wiped his face before putting it away.

”Who is crying? It's just that the cold wind is blinding.”

When he thought about the male and female duo who were acting coquettishly on their handkerchiefs, Bai Zhixi instantly felt his face flushing red, and he felt even more contempt towards Mo Feiling.

”What a tough mouth you are, I really don't know how a woman like you can be so cruel. However, I like your character. ”

Mo Feiling placed his hand on her shoulder, and looked at her with a profound look, then stood there like a fool, with a smile floating on his face.

”Are you going to take it away yourself or are you going to visit the Hundred Flowers Hall at Love Sea?”

Looking at the hand on her shoulder, Bai Zhixi's eyes became stern, and her entire body started to emit a cold aura, causing Mo Feiling to quickly withdraw her hand, quietly accompanying her in blowing the bone-chilling cold wind.

He could still clearly remember Hundred Flowers Tower's thrilling and beautiful incident, but he did not want to experience it a second time. However, he did not want to have any memory of it as he saw her unable to control her hands.

”Oh, now you can return my things to me, right?”

After the silence, Mo Feiling extended his slender palm towards Bai Zhixi. The joints were distinct, the skin exquisite, it was even more beautiful than Bai Zhixi's hand.

”What?”

Looking at his pale, bloodless, and slightly rough hands that was in such a miserable state, Bai Zhixi could not help but frown. How unfair it is that a man should have such beautiful hands.

However, she had forgotten that Mo Feiling had lived in the palace ever since he was young. He had no worries about food or clothing, his hands were not stained with water, and they were definitely perfect and flawless. And the original Bai Zhixi's life was even more miserable than the maidservant's. The hands must have been rough from washing clothes in the cold winter. Although he had more than a month of maintenance, how could it compare to more than ten years.

”A handkerchief!” What would a girl like you do with a handkerchief like that? ”

Mo Feiling pulled her and looked at her, trying to find where to put the handkerchief. That handkerchief was something he had bought using all his belongings from Nangong Xuan. It had an extraordinary meaning, as if he would not be able to sleep if he lost it.

”I'll keep that handkerchief for you, so that you won't have to see it harboring thoughts all day long and persecuting the young ladies of a good family.”

Bai Zhixi pushed Mo Feiling away, looked at him in disdain, and turned to leave.

The icy-cold bone words were like thunder that struck right into Mo Feiling's mind. He stood there dumbstruck like a wooden chicken as he watched Bai Zhixi walk into the distance.

After a moment, he regained his senses and suddenly shouted for Bai Zhixi who was in front of him to stop.
