Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

"What happened?" they asked, putting down their belongings.

I saw Li Xin and Shangguan Chen fighting fiercely, while Xiao Ruoxin stood aside, watching the scene in horror, and then she quickly walked towards the two people.

"Brother Qu, Brother Huang, please come and stop the fight!" She had never seen such a fierce fight.

After the two intervened, the situation gradually calmed down. Everyone sat down and tried to understand what had happened.

"Actually, I just wanted to go into the water to catch fish, and I accidentally slipped."

Xiao Ruoxin explained: "Shangguan Chen came here to help me, but he misunderstood when Sister Li Xin arrived."

After listening to Xiao Ruoxin's words, Li Li finally realized that it was all a misunderstanding. It turned out that everything was caused by her misunderstanding.

"I'm sorry, I wronged you." Li Xin apologized to Shangguan Chen and looked at Xiao Ruoxin with full of concern in his eyes.

Shangguan Chen smiled and said, "I guess Miss Li saw Miss Xiao fall into the water and thought it was my fault, so she was so anxious."

He turned to Li Xin, his eyes flickering with a hint of fluctuation: "Although I like to joke, I will still take matters of life and death seriously.

It is a good thing that Miss Li cares about Miss Xiao, but we must also avoid misunderstanding others, otherwise, like what happened just now, unnecessary misunderstandings will occur. "

After hearing this, Li Xin did not respond immediately, but just stared at Shangguan Chen quietly.

Qu Tingyun patted her shoulder and said:

"People tend to lose their composure when they are anxious. Miss Li reacted like that because she cared too much about Xin'er. Just explain the misunderstanding. Brother Shangguan, don't take it to heart."

After three months of getting along, Qu Tingyun knew Li Xing's character well - she was neither impulsive nor would she take action based on unfounded speculation.

He believed that Li Xin must have had his reasons for attacking Shangguan Chen. And through the previous confrontation, he also had a general understanding of Shangguan Chen's strength - if the two really competed, it would probably be difficult to tell who was better.

Shangguan Chen was obviously holding back during the fight and did not attack Li Xin with all his strength, and it was obvious that he had no intention of hurting her.

"I won't blame you, but Miss Li did give me a fright just now. Even the fish in the river were scared away."

Shangguan Chen said this half-jokingly, but Li Xin detected a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Shangguan Chen then suggested: "In order to compensate Miss Li for the 'surprise' she gave me, why not ask her to do something for me."

He smiled and looked at Li Xin, pointing at the wild fruits and rabbits nearby:

"The five of us have been traveling all day, and this little food is not enough. How about this, you guys light a fire here, and Miss Li and I will go catch a few more fish and prepare some dishes for everyone?"

"Okay! Okay!" Xiao Ruoxin responded happily because she loved eating fish the most.

"Miss Li, do you have any objection?" Shangguan Chen asked.

"Let's go." Li Xin didn't want to say more. He stood up and walked towards the river, hoping to end his time alone with Shangguan Chen as soon as possible.

"Yi Chen." Qu Tingyun watched Shangguan Chen and Li Li walking away, and exchanged glances with Xiao Yi Chen.

Xiao Yichen stayed to take care of his sister Xiao Ruoxin, while Qu Tingyun found an excuse to leave temporarily and planned to observe the situation.

"If you have anything to say, you can say it now."

Li Xin and Shangguan Chen came to the source of water upstream, but they did not go fishing as they had said before. The two stood face to face, Li Xin's eyes were as cold as a knife, shooting directly at Shangguan Chen, and she spoke without any expression.

"Li Xing, don't be so angry with me. Smile, just like you smiled at Qu Tingyun."

Although Shangguan Chen was smiling, there was no warmth in his eyes, which made people feel a chill.

His dark eyes seemed like a bottomless whirlpool, which seemed to suck Centrifugal in completely.

"Just now, you didn't want to pull Xin'er up, but really wanted her to drown."

This was not a question, but an accusation that Li Xin was certain of. They grew up together, and Li Xin knew the dark side of Shangguan Chen very well.

The water was not shallow, it had reached Xiao Ruoxin's waist. If Shangguan Chen really wanted to save her, he would never have been facing down.

If Li Xin had not appeared in time, Shangguan Chen would have almost succeeded.

"Since you don't want to do it, let me help you do it."

Shangguan Chen did not deny it this time, but said with a smile: "Don't forget, she is your mission target.

You've been delaying for three months, and the old guys over there are getting impatient. If you continue to delay, you know what the consequences will be."

"I've already said that I will complete the mission, but not now! I don't need you to interfere in my affairs!"

Thinking of the scene just now, Li Xin couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If she had arrived a step later, she would be facing Xiao Ruoxin's dead body.

"If not now, then when?" Shangguan Chen's patience ran out and he asked back directly.

He knew that an ultimatum had been issued. If the heads of the Xiao brothers and sisters could not be brought back within this month, Li Xin would be thrown into a water dungeon and tortured.

And he was waiting to completely possess her after the mission was completed!

"This has nothing to do with you!"

Li Xin responded coldly and suddenly threw a dagger. It brushed past Shangguan Chen's wrist and landed steadily on the ground.

She controlled it very well and only injured his meridians, making his right hand temporarily unable to move, but did not hurt his bones.

Such an injury would not only make Shangguan Chen suffer some pain, but would not affect his mission of protecting Xiao Ruoxin.

"Central you!"

Shangguan Chen clenched his injured hand and tried to move his fingers, but found that his right hand had no feeling. He looked up at Li Xin and gritted his teeth and said her name.

"Don't worry, this is just the effect of the anesthetic. You will regain consciousness in half an hour." This is the lesson he deserved. Who dared to touch his people!

Suddenly, there was a slight noise in the bushes. Li Xin immediately became alert, holding a dagger, and shouted sternly: "Who is it? Come out!"

A moment later, the bushes shook suddenly and two fat rabbits jumped out.

Seeing this, Li Xin's expression eased a little. She acted quickly, and with a flash of the dagger, she accurately pierced the throats of the two rabbits, pinning them to the ground.

Because they were afraid to go into the water to fish, and Shangguan Chen's accidental injury could not be repaired, these two wild rabbits became substitutes.

She walked forward, grabbed the rabbit's ears, picked up the prey, and without looking back, left Shangguan Chen alone and went straight back to the camp.

Shangguan Chen glared at the figure that was moving away from him, feeling both angry and helpless.

After waiting there for a long time, when the anesthetic effect wore off, he felt a sharp pain in his right hand, which almost made him unable to breathe.

He silently swore in his heart that he would get this account back from Li Xin someday.

Enduring the pain, Shangguan Chen tore off a piece of his clothes to bandage the wound, put on a fake smile, and slowly walked back to the crowd.

Qu Tingyun witnessed all this on the tree and finally had a clearer understanding of the complicated relationship between the two.
