Chapter 192: Sweet Honey Ashes Like Frost 13
Although Xu Feng felt that Suihe's attitude and tone were a little strange, he didn't know what was strange exactly, so he let Suihe continue asking.
Ling Xi lowered her eyes slightly, her inexplicably long eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes. She silently remembered Xu Feng and Sui He in her heart.
She answered sincerely in a low voice: "Princess Suihe, I have only seen His Majesty the Night God a few times when I came to Xuanji Palace from the Fire God Palace. I cannot say that I know His Majesty the Fire God."
Hearing Ling Xi say this, Xu Feng became unhappy, and the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing an unsatisfied expression, "Hey, Ling Xi, what's wrong with you? I have spoken to you several times, how come we can't be considered acquaintances?"
After hearing Xu Feng's words, Sui He's suspicion, which had originally subsided, rose again, and there was a look of scrutiny in her eyes when she looked at Ling Xi.
At first she just thought that the maid was pretty, but now she felt that she was more than just pretty, with dark eyebrows, red lips, snow-white skin, beautiful features, clear eyes and eyebrows, and a unique charm. When she smiled, she was bright and charming. She could be called a beauty that could topple a country. She had never seen many people in the heavenly palace who were prettier than her.
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little jealous of the maid's appearance, and also a sense of crisis.
My cousin wouldn't like her, would he? Or was he bewitched by her appearance?
Ling Xi closed her eyes, wishing she could sew Xu Feng's mouth shut with a needle.
Dog Phoenix, shut up! Didn't you see that the Peacock Princess was looking at her with hatred? Was she trying to attract more hatred to her? If you can't speak, just shut up.
Although it is true that she is now a supreme god, she cannot deal with the hundreds of thousands of troops in heaven. Also, Runyu is not a supreme god yet and has no military power, so she cannot rebel.
"Your Highness the God of Fire."
Ling Xi was about to speak when she was interrupted by someone suddenly saying, "I don't know if Ah Xi has angered His Highness the God of Fire and Princess Sui He. Runyu would like to apologize on her behalf."
Hearing this voice that couldn't be more familiar, Ling Xi was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. Her great dragon came just in time. As expected, at the critical moment, she still had to rely on you, Yinglong, which was much stronger than the phoenix.
Runyu walked to Ling Xi, pulled her behind him, and blocked her in front of him, covering herself tightly without leaving any gaps.
Ling Xi obediently hid behind Runyu, allowing Runyu to stand in front of her, without any intention of showing off.
Tall people always stand in front.
Moreover, Suihe has to give Runyu some face after all, and she probably won't make things difficult for her in the future.
Oh, next time I go out, I have to check the almanac and make sure to avoid Xu Feng and Sui He. Now the heroine Jin Mi hasn't appeared yet, and Xu Feng and Sui He are always together in the Heavenly Palace. Wherever there is Xu Feng, there is Sui He. If you meet one, you will meet two. It's really hard to guard against.
Although she is not afraid of trouble, she doesn't like trouble to come to her.
She just wanted to live a peaceful life.
Feeling Ling Xi pinching his clothes obediently and relying on him, Runyu's heart softened and the corners of his mouth slightly raised with a hint of smile.
Seeing Ling Xi hiding behind him after Runyu appeared, Xu Feng's face changed, his smile was a little forced, and he said bitterly: "Brother, you misunderstood, I just happened to meet Ling Xi on the road and said a few words to her."
Suihe looked at Runyu. As a woman, she naturally understood a man's feelings for a woman. Runyu's feelings were not hidden, so they could be easily seen, not to mention that he affectionately called this woman A'xi. If there was nothing wrong, how could he call her so intimately?
And this little maid seems to be very dependent on Runyu, and doesn't seem to be without feelings for him.
Thinking of this, she quietly shifted her gaze away from Ling Xi, feeling relieved in her heart.
As long as he doesn't compete with her for Xufeng, everything will be fine. Then, she looked at Runyu with a smile and said, "Don't mind, Your Highness Yeshen. I saw this fairy and liked her very much, so I said a few more words."
Ling Xi poked her head out from behind Runyu, smiled shyly, and said embarrassedly: "Princess Suihe, thank you for your compliment."
When Runyu saw Ling Xi like this, he knew that she was acting again. He lowered his eyes and looked at her with a gentle smile in his eyes.
When Xu Feng saw this scene, he felt even more upset. He then snorted and said, "Since my brother is here, I will leave first. The Mother Goddess is still waiting for me."
Runyu smiled and replied, "Okay."
"Suihe, let's go." Xufeng called Suihe, and they left together.
After the two left, Ling Xi jumped out from behind Runyu and slowly let out a sigh of relief: "Finally gone."
Sensing her nervousness, Runyu laughed: "Why do you not want to be with them so much?"
The reason why he said he didn't want to was because Runyu knew that Ling Xi would not be afraid of seeing them, and he could see the impatient attitude in her eyes.
If Xufeng and Suihe didn't know Ling Xi, they would not have failed to notice this.
Ling Xi's face was not very good. He did not hide what was in his heart. He directly complained to Runyu about Xu Feng, "He is still your good brother. I deliberately avoided him, but he bumped into me. He brought a Peacock Princess with him. Everyone in the Heavenly Palace knows that the Peacock Princess is his second prince's consort. If I mess with them, it means troubles. It happens that what I hate most is trouble."
"That's Princess Suihe, not Princess Peacock." Runyu corrected Ling Xi's words without any sincerity. His tone was obviously a bit naughty, but his whole person was like a man as beautiful as jade, a young man unparalleled in the world.
Ling Xi shrugged, "Aren't they all the same?"
Anyway, its true identity is a peacock, a white peacock.
The two walked back to Xuanji Palace together. Runyu found that Ling Xi was in a good mood and had a guess in his mind: "Did you go to see your uncle again today?"
Ling Xi nodded, "Yes, he has just rehearsed a new play and asked me to go and taste it for him to see if there is anything wrong with it."
"Oh, by the way," Ling Xi recalled what happened today, and took out the ball of red thread from his sleeve, sorted out the ball of red thread, and then pulled out a strand and handed it to Runyu, "This is for you."
Runyu's heart suddenly started beating very fast, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. Did she know what the red line meant?
"If you have a girl you like, give this to her. It will bring you closer together." Ling Xi said with a smile.
With a click, Runyu's excited heart broke, as if it had been soaked in ice water, cold and icy. It was also as if it had been kicked into the endless darkness of the earth, without a trace of light.
Runyu took the red thread, a bitter look appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Thank you."
But when he saw Ling Xi's clear and bright eyes, he felt that he might not have no chance.
He collected the red thread and they walked side by side again.
They didn't notice that a red string was quietly tied around their wrists and then tied into a knot.
Due to the final exam week approaching, the update time has been unstable recently. Please forgive me, everyone.
