Liu Hui Ying did not think much about his gaze, she simply thought that he was acting reserved because of what she said after all Zhai Tianyu has showed her this side of him a lot of times before which was why she calmly nodded and then turned around to walk towards the carriage, she did not take Zhai Tianyu or his actions to heart at all.

In her mind, Zhai Tianyu already had someone he wanted to be, surely he wouldn’t think of her in any other way. If only she knew how to read the thoughts of a man, or much less had a little experience with men, she would have understood that Zhai Tianyu’s gaze was not that of a man who was looking at simply an acquaintance.

Li Gang who was very familiar with such gazes wanted to warn Liu Hui Ying but he was stopped by Jia Li and Grandma Lan Fen. Seeing that the two of them were stopping him, Li Gang was really angry he looked at the two of them and glared at them simultaneously while the two clutched his arms.

” What are you stopping me for? Can’t you see that the man has some schemes over our boss? What will you do if he was to make a move?” Li Gang no matter how much he teased and taunted Liu Hui Ying cared for her a lot, to him she was like a younger sister whom he has seen grow up in front of him, which was why he cared about Liu Hui Ying a lot.

He has seen her struggles and has seen how she was treated by the men of the world where she had no one to turn to, her distrust towards men were not just because of what happened to her sister and the resentful soul that was trapped in her body but also because of all the experiences that she has gone through, which could be said that they were not light at all.

” You are simply jumping the gun too much and too early,” like Li Gang, Jia Li cared about Liu Hui Ying as well after all she and Liu Hui Ying were like a sister even if the two of them squabbled a lot, she cared about Liu Hui Ying just as much as Li Gang did, but she also knew that what was important and what wasn’t, more importantly, she was able to keep a good reign of her temper which was why she could see the importance of this development.

” I know that you are upset with the Emperor but you have to see that Liu Hui Ying is at least tolerant towards him, what if he somehow manages to treat Liu Hui Ying’s wounds? Even though Liu Hui Ying is happy and she acts like she is fine, don’t you think that she is lonely too?”

” Doesn’t she has us? Why will she be lonely?” Li Gang was not at all convinced

.....

” We are going to move on sooner or later,” Jia Li reminded him causing Li Gang to pause in his struggle as he looked at Jia Li who was solemnly looking at him. ” Even though we have been with Hui Ying for so many years, even though we are like a family, you will have to understand that you and I and Grandma Lan Fen will move on from this world once we are done letting go of our regrets when that happens what will happen to Liu Hui Ying? She will be all alone. Do you want her to be alone?”

” What’s more she only has us as her friends, even if I do admire her but I think that her staying in the world of the dead and befriending the dead is a bit too much,” Grandma Lan Fen chimed from the side when she saw that Li Gang has stopped struggling. ” You might think that this is wrong but think about it, apart from the dead have you ever seen Liu Hui Ying get close to another person before? A living one?”

Li Gang pursed his lips as he thought over it but then he rolled his shoulders and took the arms of Jia Li and grandma Lan Fen off his arms as he glared at the two of them and said, ” I will accept anyone for Hui Ying but not that treacherous Emperor, not only does he has someone in his heart…there is also the fact that the man thinks nothing of Liu Hui Ying in front of his ambitions, in case Liu Hui Ying comes in his way of acquiring what he wants, I am sure that he will harm her which is why I do not believe him at all, you can say what you want but this man…he won’t do!”

After speaking he flew after Liu Hui Ying like a bodyguard he glared at Zhai Tianyu who was simply standing on the side and did not even do anything, seeing Li Gang glaring at him, Zhai Tianyu touched his nose guiltily. It wasn’t as if he has forgotten the warning that Li Gang gave him before and knew that his line of thoughts did not sit well with either Li Gang or himself, which was why he was willing to reflect on himself.

When Liu Hui Ying noticed that Zhai Tianyu was not moving, she turned her head and looked at the man who was still standing like a statue at the spot she has left him and then frowned as she asked, ” What is wrong with you? Why are you standing there like a mute, your majesty?”

This was the first time Zhai Tianyu heard anyone curse him, he shook his head and then walked over to Liu Hui Ying before he loudly said, ” You do know that you can get punished for that my queen?”

” Try if you can do that, your majesty.” Liu Hui Ying teased Zhai Tianyu as she winked at him and then turned around to walk ahead of him. ” But you will be the one who will suffer the most.”
