Xiao Jinxing asked An Ning, enunciating each word clearly.
His tone obviously mixed with anger.
After she abandoned him, he returned with Xiao Wu to the county magistrate’s residence.
Then.
His mind was completely filled with the scene of her leaving without a trace of nostalgia.
He thought that upon seeing her again, he could accept everything about her, even if she went to Qingfeng Building, he felt like killing soone, but he could accept it.
After all, back then, it was his fault.
He was the one who chose to give her up.
Afterward, she had her own life, her own joys, and he tried hard to accept it.
But the only thing he couldn’t accept was.
Her leaving again.
Just thinking she might disappear... he didn’t dare to imagine what he would do if that happened.
Yet he did not go to find her imdiately.
He was just afraid his rage would hurt her.
So he spent an afternoon calming his emotions.
Letting himself cool down.
Now, seeing her again.
Seeing the distance she maintained, the rejection, it made his heart ache faintly.
The strong urge to pull her into his arms continued to grow, uncontrollable...
"My lord misunderstood. I, a re girl, finished using the restroom and didn’t see you outside. I thought you had lost patience and left, so I returned," An Ning explained, unhurried.
She had already thought of an excuse on her way here.
Very clear about what kind of person Xiao Jinxing was, even after an afternoon he would certainly hold her accountable.
Tonight, calling her here, it was either to kill her.
Or to force her hand.
Xiao Jinxing put down the teacup, stood up from the chair, his tall and stately figure right in front of An Ning.
Looking down at her.
An Ning did not raise her head.
But she felt Xiao Jinxing’s anger.
A very strong fury.
So tonight, most likely he wanted to kill her.
She remained calm.
She slowly felt the figure in front of her crouch down.
The next mont.
His slender fingers lifted her chin.
Making her eyes et his.
An Ning pursed her lips.
Her gaze indifferent as she looked at Xiao Jinxing.
Seeing the restrained anger in his eyes, perhaps... there was also a hint of sadness.
But to An Ning, none of it mattered.
From the mont she jumped down the city wall.
There was no longer anyone nad Xiao Jinxing in her life.
She had no feelings for him.
The revolutionary friendship turned to ashes five years ago!
She heard Xiao Jinxing’s words through gritted teeth, saying slowly, "Do you think I’m that easy to deceive? Ye Qichi!"
Ye Qichi!
An Ning’s heart did skip a beat.
So.
Xiao Jinxing had recognized her after all.
His patience with her had also reached its limit over the past few days.
To Xiao Jinxing, besides Bai Mowan, he wouldn’t spend much effort on anyone else.
So now, he had laid all his cards on the table.
But she.
Wouldn’t admit it.
Would rather die than let Xiao Jinxing know she was Ye Qichi.
Her steady gaze looked straight at Xiao Jinxing, not a flicker in her eyes, "I don’t know what you’re talking about, my lord."
"Do you hate ?" Xiao Jinxing asked her.
Deeply asked her.
A trace of redness seed to glisten in his eyes.
As if he was restraining it.
"I really don’t know what you’re talking about, my lord." Ye Qichi deflected her gaze.
At that mont, she also pushed away Xiao Jinxing’s hand raising her chin.
"If it’s not a heart attack, please excuse then," An Ning got up from the ground.
Just as she stood up.
Her body was suddenly pulled tightly into Xiao Jinxing’s embrace.
The force was so great that her nose hitting his chest ached painfully.
She wanted to break free.
But her body was only held tighter.
In Xiao Jinxing’s brute strength, An Ning could not resist, and it felt suffocating.
Her entire face was pressed tightly against his chest.
Airless.
For a mont, An Ning thought Xiao Jinxing really ant to kill her tonight.
She even thought, it wouldn’t take much longer.
Before she truly would be killed by Xiao Jinxing.
She tensed her gaze.
And suddenly opened her mouth, biting down hard on Xiao Jinxing’s chest.
With all her strength.
Xiao Jinxing felt the pain.
But didn’t let An Ning go imdiately.
Allowing her, to furiously bite into his body.
Compared to the pain in his heart, this wound was nothing.
An Ning in his arms was about to collapse!
If this continues on.
If this continues on.
She really would die.
She let go.
Even through the fabric, she seed to taste the blood.
Yet the man seed unmoved in his intent to kill her...
Just as An Ning thought she was dood tonight, just at the mont she let go in resignation.
Xiao Jinxing suddenly released his hold too.
An Ning took a deep breath.
Before she could catch it.
She got up and ran.
If not now, when?!
Yet the mont her hand touched the door.
Her whole body was suddenly pinned down.
Unable to open the door at all.
The powerful body pressed her directly against the door, immobilizing her from behind.
An Ning clenched her fists.
Trying hard to suppress her anger.
"Don’t run anymore, okay?" Xiao Jinxing asked her.
An Ning stayed silent, she didn’t even want to hear his voice.
"Co back with ." He whispered in her ear.
Using his softest voice, his most humble tone.
Begging her to co back.
For everything he did in the past, all the cruelty he subjected her to, he would make ands.
Spend his life making up for the hurt he caused her.
Please don’t leave again.
Ye Qichi.
I beg you, don’t go.
The overwhelming emotions he was suppressing, An Ning truly could not feel.
Her mind was entirely consud with how to escape from next to Xiao Jinxing.
She had made a mistake.
Or rather, she had underestimated Xiao Jinxing.
She thought as long as she put an end to Xiao Jinxing’s intentions, he would give up and leave.
But she had ignored Xiao Jinxing’s arrogance.
What he believed in was very hard to change.
He was convinced she was Ye Qichi, no matter how much she did, he would not believe otherwise.
She should have left with Youyou and Luming.
She shouldn’t have tried to outsmart Xiao Jinxing.
Living a life surrounded by sches and plots since childhood, having seized the throne of the Daxuan Kingdom, she should not have challenged him!
She suppressed her raging fury.
And with a calm voice said, "My lord, you’ve mistaken for soone else."
"I know you hate ." Xiao Jinxing wouldn’t listen to An Ning’s explanation.
An Ning clenched her teeth.
"But I can change." Xiao Jinxing promised softly in her ear, "Anything you don’t like about , I’ll change. Anything you like, I’ll learn."
An Ning remained unmoved.
Even felt a sense of disgust.
What she didn’t like was him appearing before her eyes, but he wouldn’t change that.
"My lord, you truly have the wrong person." An Ning said patiently, "I, a re girl, am a stranger to you. Please let go..."
An Ning’s gaze suddenly tightened.
Because, she sincerely felt Xiao Jinxing’s lips, cautiously fall on her earlobe.
