Xie Xingyun seemed to be surprised by her words. He raised his arm and placed it in front of her.

“You mean this?”

Bai Xianyu found it strange. “Mm.”

Xie Xingyun curled his lips slightly. “They’re quite cute. I like them very much.”

Bai Xianyu,”…”

It was not enough for him to just say that. In front of Bai Xianyu, he gently stroked them with his other hand, as if he was afraid that he would flatten the bite marks with a little force.

Bai Xianyu,”?” Why would anyone like her bite marks?

Xie Xingyun propped himself up and lowered his eyelids slightly. He said in a negotiating tone, “Look, do you want to take another bite?”

Bai Xianyu, “No way.”

Hearing her words, Xie Xingyun looked a little disappointed, but he did not force her.

He liked any mark she left on him.

“If you’re not talking about the pain in your arm, then where is the pain you mentioned just now?” Bai Xianyu looked at his leg as she spoke. “Could it be that I had kicked you?”

Xie Xingyun raised an eyebrow and held her hand to his heart. “It hurts here.”

Bai Xianyu,”…”

So, was she being flirted with?

Xie Xingyun seemed to feel that the tone of his voice just now could not completely show what he meant. He added, “It hurts the moment you say ‘thank you’, ‘excuse me’, ‘I’m sorry’, it hurts.”

The corners of Bai Xianyu’s mouth twitched. “Your words of love are too unnatural.”

Xie Xingyun’s lips curled up slightly. “Then what’s considered natural?”

Bai Xianyu really thought about it seriously. Then, she suddenly thought of something. Wasn’t this something he should consider? He was the one pursuing her now, not her. Why should she help him think of words of love?

“I don’t know,” she said bluntly.

Xie Xingyun was caught off guard and approached her earlobe. “I love you.”

Her breath caught in her throat.

“Whether you like me or not, I will still love you.” Xie Xingyun’s eyes were darker than the night.

He waited for a long time, but Bai Xianyu did not reply. He leaned over and saw that she had already fallen asleep.

Her long eyelashes cast a shadow on her eyes. Her skin was fairer than snow, and her red lips were charming.

Xie Xingyun stared at her quietly for a long time before quietly landing from the bed and tucking her in.

After he left, Bai Xianyu, who had already “slept”, slowly opened her eyes again.

His eyelids would not close.

She felt that Xie Xingyun’s words were true.

Everything he had said to her before to express his feelings was true.

She had never been so sure… that Xie Xingyun loved her.

For someone like him, if he did not love, even if someone held a knife to his neck, he would not say anything.

But a person like him had told her more than once that he loved her.

Bai Xianyu sighed softly. If she heard this in the past, she would be so happy that she would not be able to sleep.

The next day.

The news that Bai Xianyu’s fever had subsided also spread to Daqing’s envoy delegation. They wrote letters one after another and sent them to Daqing, and the gifts they prepared already filled the room.

Mo Linyuan wanted to go in and take a look at her, but he was stopped by a man who claimed to be an imperial physician.

“She needs to recuperate now. Don’t enter and leave as you please. Otherwise, I’m afraid her injuries will worsen.” Gu Yu waved his fan and smiled with a flair.

Mo Linyuan saw that he indeed had a token to enter and leave the Inner Palace, so he believed him.

He did not get to see Bai Xianyu, so he walked towards the foot of the mountain. There were a few hunters at the foot of the mountain, and they were very far from each other.

Mo Linyuan went to the most concealed house that was hidden in the mountain, revealing only a corner of the roof.

Walking in, the interior decoration was no different from an ordinary hunter’s house. There were fox furs, tiger skins, and some wild vegetables. However, when he walked into one of the rooms and gently moved a kettle, a secret passage that led to an unknown place appeared.

Mo Linyuan did not go in. His eyes were cold.

Soon, the person who heard the sound hurriedly crawled out and prostrated on the ground. His voice was trembling as he said, “Your Highness, 1 know my mistake!”

Mo Linyuan was unmoved by the injuries that criss-crossed his body. “Do you know that your arrow almost killed her?”

That person endured his injuries and kowtowed. “It’s my fault. 1 thought that everything would go according to plan, so when I saw that Your Highness and the people from the imperial family of Great Kui were there, I was afraid that 1 would miss the opportunity, so 1 shot an arrow! But I didn’t expect Bai Xianyu to pounce!”

Mo Linyuan still had lingering fears when he thought of that scene.

After a long silence, he said, “You should be glad that she’s fine.”

The reason why Mo Linyuan spared his life was also because he had not disobeyed his orders.

However, something unexpected happened.

The marriage alliance which he had hated deeply was now exactly what he wanted..
