Gu Lili lay on the chair in the courtyard, soaking up the sun and sipping tea. Hearing footsteps, she didn’t open her eyes, "Back already?"
Rong Fei stood at her feet, leisurely watching her long eyelashes that looked like little fans. As he bent down and reached out to touch her face, Gu Lili grabbed his arm. In a whirlwind mont, he found himself lying in the spot she had been, his arm pinned down, facing her fierce expression.
"There’s sothing on your face. I wanted to help you remove it."
Just as Gu Lili was about to release her grip, Rong Fei took advantage of her unpreparedness and hugged her. The consequence of this embrace was having his arm dislocated by Gu Lili, causing him to howl in pain and helplessly drag off his half-limp arm to find soone to fix it.
He didn’t forget to throw a remark at her before leaving, "Heartless woman."
Gu Lili clapped her hands, shot him a sideways glance, rose up, and took her tea back to the bedroom.
Just as she sat down, a soldier from Youyou Valley ca in, tossing an envelope to her in a low voice, "Master, your letter."
Then he left quickly.
Gu Lili opened the envelope to see Long Yubei’s handwriting, containing just one sentence: [Gu Xichen is unconscious, already accommodated at ho.]
She burned the letter, her heart filled with urgency. What happened to Gu Xichen?
As hostages of the Demon World, they cannot leave without summons from the Heavenly World and permission from the Demon World.
She was forced to find Rong Fei.
Rong Fei had just fixed his arm when he saw her coming, visibly concerned, "What’s happened?"
"There’s a problem with my friend. I need to go back for a few days. Give two days."
"No." Rong Fei refused, "For dislocating my arm."
"Can’t I just apologize to you?"
Rong Fei smiled with a hint of sarcasm, "What’s the use of an apology? It’s just moving your lips."
"What do you need to agree?"
"Follow ."
Gu Lili followed him back to the bedroom, and he closed the door, asking, "Which friend?"
"You don’t know them."
"How co I don’t know about any friends of yours?"
"Who doesn’t have a friend?" Gu Lili really didn’t want to explain a lot to him, "Just two days, I’ll be back."
"I hope you’re not making up this story to secretly et Long Chan?"
"I really am not." Gu Lili was genuinely anxious, "Rong Fei, I’m not joking with you."
"Fine, then give a kiss." Rong Fei chuckled, "Kiss , and I’ll give you two days."
"I’m notifying you not for any other reason, but as a hostage of the Heavenly World, I thought I’d give you a heads up. Rong Fei, don’t take advantage of this. If you don’t agree, then I’ll just leave forcefully." Gu Lili’s mind was made up, no matter what, she had to leave here.
Rong Fei grumbled, "Do you understand the consequences of leaving forcefully? If you were that capable, why are you here as a hostage in the Demon World? Nevermind the kiss then, how about just a hug?"
Just a hug, Gu Lili stretched out to embrace him. As she was about to let go, Rong Fei’s uninjured arm tightened around her, the scent of her calming him considerably.
He released her, "Be back by tomorrow night."
Seeing him agree, Gu Lili nodded, "Understood."
Leaving Youyou Valley, Gu Lili was very careful walking the path back to Qin Garden, circling around several tis before ensuring it was safe, then entering through the door.
Long Yubei knew she’d co back, but didn’t expect her to return so soon.
"I thought Rong Fei would give you trouble, you’d have to delay a bit."
"What happened to Xichen?!" Gu Lili asked.
