Bai Aoxue did not panic at all. She still said indifferently: âWho? Get out!â When her words fell, she had already held the dagger in hand.
That cold weapon crossed a beautiful arc in the air just like a shining light.
âHaha, Miss Bai, youâre still so decisive!â The dagger was caught by a slender hand. Bai Aoxue also clearly saw that manâs appearance.
Bai Aoxue looked at the man who leaned against the window ledge and looked at her with a pair of charming eyes, with his two fingers seizing her dagger.
âI donât know that Prince Peerless has tastes in climbing over walls and windows. Do you really like them?â Bai Aoxue did not have a trace of surprise. Sitting on the bed calmly, Bai Aoxue looked at Qi Liange disdainfully and said so.
After Qi Liange listened to Bai Aoxueâs words, fierce light flashed across his beautiful eyes, while he still looked like a cunning fox, which remained unchanged for thousands of years.
âMiss Bai, you overstated the truth. Itâs all because of Prime Ministerâs cruelty. He even doesnât allow people to come and visit. I just want to see Miss Bai.â Qi Liange looked at Bai Aoxue as if he was heartbroken. His speed of changing expression really caught Bai Aoxue unawares.
Bai Aoxue looked at Qi Liange who seemed to be heart-broken. Strangers might think that she did something frenzied to make this man who was loved by the whole world sad.
âPrince Peerless, it was you who overstated the case. I donât accept visits just because I have been feeling tired recently, so I need to rest. In addition, after a few days, I will get married, so Prime Ministerâs mansion needs to be cleaned and decorated.â Bai Aoxueâs tone was still cold. She wasnât moved because of Qi Liange pitiful expression.
After Qi Liange listened to Bai Aoxueâs words, he asked as if he didnât know anything: âMiss Bai, are you sick? Why would you feel tired?â
âPrince Peerless, thank you for your concern. Iâm fine. Itâs probably because that Iâm going to get married, so my imagination runs wild inevitably.â Bai Aoxue explained carelessly since she didnât want to go further with Qi Liange.
After Qi Liange listened to Bai Aoxueâs words, he raised up his eyebrows slightly. He was somewhat angry with Bai Aoxueâs concealment. He thought that at least Bai Aoxue could regard him as a friend. It seemed that he thought too much about their relationship...
âMiss Bai, donât treat me as an outsider. I have always treated Miss Bai as one of my few friends. If Miss Bai has any difficulties, I will try my best to help you.â Instead of being cynical, Qi Liange looked at Bai Aoxue and said seriously.
After Bai Aoxue listened to Qi Liangeâs words, she picked up her eyebrows with amazement and laughed, but she didnât say anything.
Qi Liange even regarded her as his friend. She wasnât too shocked. She just felt it inconceivable. A person like Qi Liange didnât need friends at all.
Elegance and cunning were the first impressions that he gave people. However, after getting along with him for a long time, you would find that Qi Liange was proud and aloof. His natural advantages always made people feel self-abased when they saw him.
Of course, Bai Aoxue wasnât one of them.
Bai Aoxue only regarded Qi Liangeâs words as a joke then touched upon this topic. After all, she was not confident enough to think that every man who saw her would be fascinated.
Moreover, this man was Prince Peerless who was praised by the whole world!
âPrince Peerless, you over praised me. Iâm just a woman who has no integrity or ability. How can I be friends with a noble prince?â Bai Aoxue made her reply very tactfully.
Although she couldnât be friends with Qi Liange, she couldnât be his enemy!
After listening to Bai Aoxueâs words, although Qi Liangeâs expression didnât change, his sharp eyes that stared at Bai Aoxue straightly exposed his mood at this time.
âMiss Bai, youâre too modest. I think that there are few women in this world who can compare favorably with Miss Bai.â Qi Liange continued. He did not intend to let go of Bai Aoxue.
When Bai Aoxue listened to Qi Liangeâs words, her beautiful eyes roamed round. She smiled lightly: âWhat kinds of woman do you think I am, Prince Peerless? A woman who is good at psychological tactics or disguise? If you think so, you really misunderstand me. A rabbit can beat people when it is anxious, let alone human beings.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
How could Qi Liange not understand Bai Aoxueâs meaning? He slowly walked to the window. His plain clothes made a conspicuous show of his gentle and modest temperament compared with the purple gilt robes that he wore when they first met.
Those people who first met him wouldnât think that this man had the momentum of a monarch, but Bai Aoxue knew that people who were good at disguise were the most terrible.
They waited for opportunities to act just like cheetahs. In order to prey, cheetahs are willing to stand still for a long time. As long as the time is ripe, they capture their preys decisively and rapidly!
âMiss Bai, donât be so paranoid. I just appreciate your unyielding temperament and your soul that would rather disappear than submit.â Qi Liange shook his head gently, as if that fierce light never appeared in his eyes.
Bai Aoxue listened to Qi Liangeâs words. In the sunlight that went in through the window, her eyelashes slightly trembled like the wings of a butterfly, which seemed to be able to fly at any time.
Bai Aoxue was silent. When Qi Liange thought that she would not say anything, she slightly picked up her good-looking thin lips and smiled faintly.
âPrince Peerless, maybe you donât understand that soul is more important to me compared with a beating heart. Even if my heart canât beat anymore, my soul canât and wonât submit!â Bai Aoxue said lightly as if she was picturing the past.
But in Qi Liangeâs eyes, peerless was not enough to describe Bai Aoxue. It seemed that the bright light in her eyes when she spoke could burn people.
It was what people in the dark desired most, and also what they wanted to destroy most. It could burn their hearts through their skin. However, even so, some people would gamble everything on it!
Perhaps... Now, Qi Liange finally understood why Jun Yeyan was obsessed with Bai Aoxue.
Why he was born in the dark but was eager for brightness?
âMaybe there is no one in the world who has the same idea as Miss Bai.â Qi Liange sighed.
Bai Aoxue didnât reply Qi Liange who looked like he was asking both himself and her.
This is the way the world is. Everyone has their own thoughts and desires. Because of this, there will be good and evil.
âArenât...you, Prince Peerless?â Bai Aoxue asked with a smile. There was no doubt or prejudice in her tone. She just wanted to ask this question.
When Qi Liange listened to Bai Aoxueâs words, he was slightly stunned. He narrowed his beautiful eyes and hid his beautiful deep eyes at the same time.
âThen I want to ask you one more question... Why do you value soul instead of life? You know, there is no soul without life.â Qi Liange looked at Bai Aoxue in the eye.
It seemed that Bai Aoxue knew that Qi Liange would ask this question. There were unbreakable determination and resolution in her eyes.
âIf my soul summit, then I canât move forward even Iâm alive! As for life, everyone would become a double handful of earth in the end!â Her words were powerful and rousing which had resolutions that couldnât be overlooked and resisted!
âHaha... Yeah! Even the soul is kept, how far it can go if itâs bent? Itâs abnormal! Miss Bai, you have a more thorough understanding of the world than me!â Qi Liange sighed and looked at Bai Aoxue with appreciation.
Bai Aoxue was unmoved by honor or disgrace. Qi Liangeâs praise didnât let her change her expression.
âPrince Peerless, you over praised me. This is just my own opinion.â Bai Aoxue said faintly, but there was not so much resistance to Qi Liange. After all, it was not easy to find a close friend.
âTalking with Bai Aoxue is really a pleasure. I must make friends with you!â Qi Liange said seriously. Although he was always surrounded by lots of people, Bai Aoxue was the second one who could have an animated conversation with him except for that person.
Bai Aoxue gently moved then looked at Qi Liange. âIt is also a pleasure to make friends with Prince Peerless.â
There was a short period of silence after Qi Liange listened to Bai Aoxueâs words. Then he looked at Bai Aoxue with a little bit surprise and shock. He said: âSo, Miss Bai, you see me as your friend?â
âYes..., you can say so in principle, but I hope that you wonât do anything beyond my principles. Such as... last time in the alley. Although Iâm not outstanding, how could I not know that I was followed?â Bai Aoxue looked at Qi Liange with sharp eyes.
In fact, when she was fighting with those second-rate killers last time, she knew that someone was peeking at her secretly, but she did not try to meet the tough with toughness. After all, she was too weak and she did not know what they intentions were, so she just waited quietly.
It was not until she saw Qi Liange in Prime Ministerâs mansion that she could be sure that the person who secretly peeped at her that day was Qi Liange.
Although she didnât know what Qi Liangeâs purpose was, she was not afraid of him. If they wanted to play a game, she would definitely keep them company. Who would be the winner was not settled, wasnât it?
Qi Liange was not shocked when his secret was exposed. Instead, he appreciated Bai Aoxue even more.
He thought that Suxiao and he hid themselves quite well, but they were still noticed by Bai Aoxue. He didnât think that Bai Aoxue saw them by chance or just guessed it.
âHow did you know that the person in the dark that day was me?â Qi Liange asked with doubt. He didnât deny or agree with what Bai Aoxue said.
But Bai Aoxue knew that Qi Liangeâs question indirectly admitted that it was him who hid in the dark that day.
Since he admitted easily, Bai Aoxueâs beautiful eyes roaming around and suddenly glistening, she lightly opened her rosy lips and said: âHow can I do my job in the future if I tell you my special skill?â
After a pause, Bai Aoxue continued: âIf you can get me some first-class high-grade Shaoxing wine, maybe I can tell you.â
When Qi Liange listened to Bai Aoxueâs words, he could not help laughing.
He did not expect Bai Aoxue to be so lovely and cunning. She even started to think about his high-grade Shaoxing wine.
âOh...no problem, as long as you can solve my problem.â Qi Liange smiled helplessly.
When Bai Aoxue saw that Qi Liange was so generous, she no longer hid the truth.
âSmell.â Bai Aoxue said one word faintly with her thin lips.
âSmell?â Qi Liange looked at Bai Aoxue with doubt.
When Bai Aoxue saw that Qi Liange was confused, she smiled: âYes. Although there was only a faint smell of pelargonium on your body, it is enough for me to notice you.â
