The master and servant did not take a carriage, but chose to walk leisurely.

During this period of time, I have been busy dealing with various forces and engaging in a battle of wits and courage, leaving me with almost no time to enjoy my leisure time.

It's a rare opportunity to go out for a walk, and the long-suppressed mood finally got some relief.

Jiang Xue stretched her arms and moved her body slightly.

She accidentally bumped into the person in front of her, and she immediately withdrew her hand, bowed her head politely and apologized.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

"is it?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Jiang Xue was stunned. She raised her head and saw Jun Li's cold face.

He held a snow-white mask in his hand and looked down at her sideways.

At this moment, Jun Li felt extremely familiar, as if time had gone back to a year ago, when she first met him when she came to Beiling.

At that time, also on this bustling street, she was playing and joking with two maids and accidentally bumped into him who was standing in front of her.

He still remembered that at that time, she opened her little mouth slightly, and when their eyes met, she stared at him infatuatedly, with a cute and naive look.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up in a subtle arc, and his eyes revealed a tenderness that Jiang Xue had never seen before.

"Jiang Xue, do you remember? This was the scene when we first met."

Jiang Xue's face was slightly cold. She stood straight and kept a certain distance from him.

"I'm sorry, Fifth Prince Consort, Changle doesn't have such memories."

"Do you really have to talk to me like this?"

Her cold and distant attitude finally made him unbearable. Forget his past concerns and restraint! Today he just wanted to find out why her attitude towards him had changed so much!

He grabbed Jiang Xue's arm and pulled her in front of him.

He hated the distance she kept deliberately! He hated her cold eyes towards him!

He wanted her to go back to the past! He wanted her to come back to him!

"Jiang Xue, come back to me! Let's start over!"

"Fifth Prince Consort, please be mindful of your words and actions in public."

Jun Li's hands might have been pinched to the point of bleeding. Jiang Xue turned her head to look at her clamped arm.

Jun Li's strength was a little out of control and she felt very uncomfortable now.

The frown revealed Jiang Xue's inner dissatisfaction.

A pair of phoenix eyes shot out a cold light like a knife blade.

No, this was not the expression he wanted. What he wanted was the smile she showed to Xiao Zhan!

It should be a warm and gentle smile!

At the fingertips, the golden needle shone with light and pierced into Jun Li's tiger's mouth accurately!

The painful hand shrank suddenly, but it never let go of Jiang Xue.

Her eyebrows were slightly raised, and her expression was slightly surprised.

"Fifth Prince Consort, before I get angry, I advise you to let go quickly, otherwise the next needle won't just be in the base of the thumb, which is an insignificant spot."

She tilted her head slightly, and a flying knife passed through her hair like lightning, pointing directly at Jun Li, almost touching his head! Jun Li's heart trembled, and he retreated quickly, leaning back, and almost at the moment when the blade touched the tip of his nose, he narrowly avoided this fatal blow!

The blade was only a hair's breadth away from the tip of his nose. If he wasn't careful, his head and body would be torn apart. If he had hesitated just now, even if the flying knife didn't kill him, it would have severely damaged his head!

"Princess, are you okay?" Fu Dong nervously pulled her back a few steps, walked around her, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that she was safe.

Seeing Jun Li approaching again, Fu Dong quickly raised her homemade crossbow, her finger on the trigger, and aimed at Jun Li. She shouted sternly: "Jun Li, this is Bei Ling's land. As the consort of Bei Ling, have you forgotten your identity?"

What happened to this man today? It was as if he was possessed by a demon. She just came out to get some fresh air, but he kept pestering her like a mad dog! Jiang Xue was furious. She was known for her tolerance, but today she was forced to be unable to tolerate it any longer.

However, her angry look seemed to carry a different kind of charm in Jun Li's eyes. He actually felt a little happy in his heart. Could it be that she was not completely heartless to him? Was her words just now showing concern for him?

Jun Li couldn't help but reveal a smug smile, and Jiang Xue felt even more disgusted when she saw this. What a lunatic, she cursed inwardly, and quickly thought about how to get rid of this trouble.

"Jiang Xue, are you worried about me?" There was a hint of joy in Jun Li's tone.

Jiang Xue's mouth twitched. Is this guy crazy? Or is there something wrong with her ears? When has she ever cared about him?

"The Fifth Prince Consort is probably suffering from hallucinations because he is being supervised too strictly by the Fifth Princess." She responded coldly, "Changle can see that you are in a trance. I'm afraid the princess has put too much pressure on you. If you have time, you should go see a doctor. Don't get any strange disease and make the Fifth Princess worry."

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Jun Li standing there in a daze.

Jun Li was just about to get closer again when suddenly, a flash of swords and sabers appeared before his eyes, and a flying knife whizzed past his feet!

One of the knives even cut off a corner of Jun Li’s shoe tip!

"Don't mention Xiao Min to me anymore! She has already..."

His voice stopped abruptly, and Jiang Xue's puzzled look made him shut up in time.

How has she been?

A cloud of doubt emerged in Jiang Xue's mind, and she keenly felt that there was something hidden in Jun Li's words.

She looked at him suspiciously for a moment, but couldn't see anything for the time being.

"So you are here!"

A girl in white clothes walked over and hugged Jun Li's arm.

She was shaking like a spoiled child, her little face was fair, and although not particularly outstanding, she was pretty and cute.

"Where's the mask you bought for me?"

The girl seemed to be completely unaware of Jiang Xue's presence. She spread out her palms and asked Jun Li playfully.

Jun Li glanced at her and didn't answer.

He silently handed her the white mask in his hand.

Then, his eyes focused on Jiang Xue again.

Following his line of sight, the girl in white finally looked directly at Jiang Xue.

"Oh, this sister is so beautiful that she can topple a whole country!"

The girl pinned the mask around her waist and walked forward enthusiastically to hold Jiang Xue's hand.

Her innocent look is very likable.

"You're too kind, girl."

Jiang Xue smiled politely and gently withdrew her hands.

"Brother Li, you have such a beautiful female friend, why have I never heard you mention her?"

The girl turned her head, her eyes fell on Jun Li, and she smiled with her eyes curved.

"It's getting late, we should go."

Jun Li glanced at her coldly, ignoring her words. He was totally different from the way he had been pestering Jiang Xue just now. He immediately turned around and urged the girl to leave. The speed at which he changed his expression was even faster than turning the pages of a book!

"Got it~" the girl responded in a sweet voice, with a gentle ending and a hint of mischief.
