She slowly raised her head to look at the familiar side view. She was once unable to extricate herself from it because of him, but now there was a cold and detached air about her.
”Crown Prince, Jing Yan understands what you are talking about. I have already reported this to His Majesty, explaining everything. The emperor had already sent out a secret decree. Jing Yan was a paper that bound life and death together with him. Jing Yan was the ghost of the royal family. One year later, Jing Yan will definitely go back and perform the marriage ceremony with Crown Prince. ”
Shangguan Jing suppressed the bitterness and hesitation in his heart, he raised his slightly pale face and wore a smile that he thought was gentle without limits, he looked like a lady from a noble family.
When she finished, the atmosphere in the air became even more tense. The silence was so terrible that only the sound of each other's heart beating faster could be heard.
”Alright. I hope Jing Yan will return as scheduled. ”
After that, Dongfang Chen's eyes that were as black as gemstones flashed with a smile. He quickly pulled Shangguan Jingyan into his embrace and tightly hugged her.
”Crown Prince, Jing Yan will not disappoint the Sovereign.”
There were traces of mist in his eyes, and there was also a trace of fear and reluctance in his voice.
When we meet today, I hope you still have a spot in your heart for me.
Shangguan Jingyan pushed Dongfang Chen away fiercely and suddenly kissed him on his cold, soft lips. Caught off guard, Dongfang Chen was kissed. He suddenly hugged Shangguan Jingyan, grabbed her head, and deepened the kiss of farewell.
A teardrop silently fell down Shangguan Jingyan's face, and landed on the ground. The worry of parting enveloped the two people who were kissing in the pavilion.
At Love Sea Restaurant, Nangong Xuan raised the wine jar in his hand and poured alcohol into his mouth with a splash.
On the table in front of him, there were over a dozen wine jars scattered about in a crooked fashion. A pungent smell of alcohol permeated the room. The smell of alcohol filled the air and made people feel nauseous.
”Prince Ling, please …”
Just as Mo Feiling walked into the house, he saw Nangong Xuan lying unsteadily on the jar of wine, his hair was let down, and his face was flushed red. Adding on the pungent smell of alcohol, there was no doubt that he was a beggar.
”Nangong Xuan, I haven't seen you for a few days. How did you make yourself look like this?”
Mo Feiling carefully moved past the wine jar at his feet and snatched the wine from his hands, his tone full of amusement.
Seeing Nangong Xuan's current state, he was indeed shocked. He had known Nangong Xuan since childhood, and their relationship was even closer than his own younger brother's.
For Nangong Xuan, even if something huge were to collapse, he would just laugh it off.
He never thought that Bai Zhixi's disappearance would actually have such a huge impact.
At this moment, he was unfamiliar with this friend of his who he had known since childhood and had grown up playing around with.
”Mo Feiling, don't force me to act. Give me back the wine.”
Nangong Xuan who was lying on the ground suddenly stood up, snatched the bottle, and took another big gulp.
His eyes were bloodshot and his beard was tied around his mouth. He looked at the wine jar in his hand and started laughing. However, his smile looked extremely horrifying.
”Xi Er, it's all because big brother is useless, I can't protect you …”
Nangong Xuan sat on the ground and mumbled to himself as tears welled up in his eyes and he sobbed silently.
”Isn't it just that my sister is gone? As long as he could find it. Look at you, you don't look like a human or a ghost, and even if Xi Er came back, he wouldn't recognize you as his big brother. ”
Unknowingly, when he saw Nangong Xuan in such a state, the anger in Mo Feiling's heart rose to the skies, he snatched the wine jar from's hands and smashed it onto the ground, and angrily shouted at him.
”Nangong Xuan, you, a dignified crown prince of a country, actually disgraced yourself in a restaurant of another country. Have you ever considered the feelings of your people? Have you ever considered Xi Er? What she hates the most are people like you, who only encounter the tiniest of problems and degrade you, who want to live or die. I can guarantee that if Xi Er sees you like this, he will beat you up. She will definitely feel that having an older brother like you is a great shame and humiliation in her life. She will definitely run far away from you and hide as far away as she can. Nangong Xuan, you must do it to this extent for you to be satisfied … ”
Before he could even speak the word 'will', Mo Feiling's shoulder was supported by a shining sharp sword. The gloomy and cold sword qi sprinkled onto his neck wave after wave, causing him to feel extremely terrified.
”Mo Feiling, if you dare, say it again, do you believe that I will kill you?”
Nangong Xuan looked at him with a face as cold as ice. His entire body emitted a condescending aura, pressing down on everyone in the Love Sea, causing them to not even dare to breathe.
Perhaps this was the aura he should have.
They were both sons of the Phoenixis Maiden, so how could Nangong Xuan, as the Crown Prince, be bad?
”Nangong Xuan, kill me if you have the ability, don't make me look down on you.”
Instead of getting angry, Mo Feiling revealed a mysterious smile and struck Nangong Xuan on the shoulder with his palm. In an instant, he rose into the air, broke the window and flew out, and headed towards the forest on the western outskirts of the capital.
Following that, a figure that was as fast as lightning followed and flew out, leaving behind a pungent smell of alcohol.
In the woods on the west side of the city, a few towering trees were blocking the scorching sun. A few cicadas were cicadas' intermittent chirps broke the silence.
After a while, the ear-piercing sound of blade and sword clashing drowned out the chirping of cicadas. As they got closer, they saw Mo Feiling and Nangong Xuan suddenly fighting against each other, it was difficult to differentiate between the two.
As the sun set in the west, the setting sun illuminated the forest with its last ray of sunlight, casting a layer of golden light over the leaves.
