The spear broke, the halberd sank into the sand, the man looked at Puran woodenly, his eyes out of focus trembling in the sunlight. He suppressed the shock in his heart, took a deep breath, and asked: "Did I ask you to use your full strength in the fight just now?"

Pu Ran shook his head honestly.

With a "biu" sound, the man's heart was pierced by the arrow and broke into seven or eight pieces.

He mounted his horse in a daze, with his head lowered. His listless appearance made his subordinates behind him panic.

Good luck!

The boss has been hit again!

"Don't be discouraged, Boss. It's just that you didn't perform well this time!"

"That's right, how can life always be smooth sailing?"

His subordinates' repeated words of consolation did not improve his mood.

Didn’t perform well?

Why do I always lose when I compete with others?

All smooth sailing?

I've never had a smooth life!

He was like an abandoned golden retriever, sitting on the horse's back pitifully and not saying a word.

He is obviously tall and handsome, but how come he looks like a little fur ball and is so pitiful?

Pu Ran bent her fingers and scratched her palm. Seeing her subordinates' expressions like "We were all trying to comfort him, how could you bear to make him sad?", she finally chose to lie after holding back for a long time: "I admit that I was just pretending... Well, actually you are very capable."

The man stiffened, then laughed, rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment, and said with a shy look: "Thank you for your kindness, young lady. Get on the horse quickly, I will take you to see the master."

Under the daylight, on horseback, the man with a warm smile on his face reached out his hand to her in a natural and friendly manner.

Pu Ran just raised his hand, but the man quickly withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted.

Puran: “?”

He waved his hands in panic, his face flushed, "I'm sorry, girl! I...I didn't mean to offend you, it's just that the journey is long and there are no other empty horses, so I have to ask you to ride with me."

Puran blinked: "Let me get on the horse quickly."

Don't talk about anything else. I'm in a hurry to settle the score with Liu Yin.

Can we set off now?

Hearing this, he became even more at a loss, his face flushed red: "I am Chu Jie, I am sorry."

His rough and broad palm covered the girl's slender wrist. With force, his clothes fluttered and his skirt rippled like waves. She was carried down by him like a butterfly and sat gracefully in front of him.

The girl's slender frame formed a sharp contrast with the man's sturdy and strong chest. The small body was completely held in Chu Jie's arms.

The man felt even more embarrassed. He put his arm around her, grabbed the reins, squeezed the horse's belly, and shouted, "Go!"

The subordinates who followed on horseback behind him kept smiling.

Look how embarrassed you are. All you have to show for yourself is just hugging a girl.

As they thought about it, the curves at the corners of their mouths gradually disappeared.

Damn it, I’ve never hugged someone in my life!

How could a group of men who eat, drink and sleep in the military camp have the chance to come into contact with such a sweet-smelling girl?

Now Chu Jie is in high spirits, while his subordinates are filled with gloom.

"We were ordered to test you to see if you were determined to find him."

"If you are scared away by our threats, the master says there is no need to bring you here."

Chu Jie smiled very embarrassedly: "What intimidation are you talking about? I am already defeated by you."

Pu Ran's eyes swept across the rapidly receding scenery on the side of the road, and he asked in a faint voice, "Is he doing well now?"

Chu Jie happily said: "This is natural!"

This made Pu Ran even more gloomy.

I'm searching everywhere here, but you're just enjoying yourself?

The horse galloped, and its hooves crushed the flowers on the ground.

The wind continued to blow the flowers and leaves into dancing shapes. The sun was setting in the west, and Chu Jie led her to stop at a mansion.

"Come with me, girl."

Chu Jie made a "please" gesture.

Pu Ran lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you for your help."

The man narrowed his eyes, slowed down his pace and led her forward.

There is a different world inside the palace, so beautiful that it seems like a fairyland on earth.

The carved eaves reflect the sun, the painted buildings resemble flying clouds, and there are pavilions, waterside terraces, and winding paths leading to secluded places.

Kingfishers were perched on branches, butterflies and bees were flying around flowers, the rockery was unique, and the quaint bridge had gurgling water. In a trance, Pu Ran really thought there was a layer of fairy mist lingering above.

This elegant and beautiful landscape painting highlights the unparalleled financial resources of the owner of the mansion.

The yard was too big, and after walking around for a long time, Chu Jie still hadn't brought her to her destination.

"Hey... My Lord, please don't abandon me. I don't want to go anywhere else except by your side!"

The man's pleading voice came from the front. Coincidentally, Chu Jie also led Pu Ran to the pavilion in the lake. His expression suddenly became serious and he saluted respectfully: "Master, the person has been brought here."

"Pu Ran!"

Liu Yin, who was sitting at the table with his mouth full of greasy food, put down the big chicken leg and greeted her happily: "You came to see me!"

Pu Ran said nothing, but silently looked at the people in the octagonal pavilion.

The first was the handsome man who knelt at her feet and stopped wailing as she came in.

The man stared in surprise.

Puran remembered him as Yan An who called her "sister" in prison.

Her gaze slowly moved upward and forward, passing by the jewel-covered Liu Yin, and looked at the silver-haired man who was sitting and drinking tea without saying a word.

He looked like a god; this was Pu Ran’s first impression of him.

Her smooth silver hair was half tied up and half loose, and her face was as cold and otherworldly as a banished immortal. If you looked closely, you could see her thick, long eyelashes as white as a cicada's wings.

His pupils were not dark brown but sparkling gold, his nose was high and deep, his lips were tinged with rose color, and when he raised his eyes, they flickered slightly, as if he had embraced a pool of spring water from the first melting snow.

Liu Yin knew that he was in the wrong, so he took the initiative to introduce Pu Ran: "Junior sister, this is the third senior brother, arrogant."

Pu Ran's eyes suddenly became surprisingly bright, which made Liu Yin nervous.

She was well-behaved and gentle: "Third Senior Brother."

Liu Yin: “???”

That's not how you treat me!

You are not a face lover, are you?

Huh? My defense is broken!

He flicked his sleeves arrogantly, his tall body covered with white clothes, which were delicately embroidered with rouge-colored winter plum blossoms, just like frosty snow branches. This casual movement was so elegant and refined that it was out of this world.

Pu Ran's eyes sparkled.

But which god from heaven came down to earth?

Can you please take me with you more and help me go to heaven as soon as possible?

When she called him tenderly and affectionately, Arrogant just glanced at her with his gilded eyes, then looked away with disdain.

Liu Yin was afraid that Pu Ran would get angry, so he quickly came out to smooth things over: "Third Brother, this is Li Laoxin's little sister, please be more friendly."

The man frowned and glanced at Liu Yin with even more disgust than when he looked at Pu Ran.

Puran: Oh, you are not as good as me.

Liu Yin: I’ll cry for you to see:)

The third senior brother is arrogant and conceited. There are few people in this world who are worthy of his attention.
