After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 528: Departure

"Can't you just tell me straight? Your sudden outburst of anger makes me..."

He really didn't know how to comfort her.

You have to understand that he was already being extra careful when dealing with Ye Ruoruo.

Even so, it still made people cry their eyes out. If another problem were to occur, they might really be separated from their loved ones.

Thinking of how easily he had spoken of writing a divorce agreement, Li Jingyang's face darkened even more, and he couldn't help but increase the force of his grip.

"pain."

It took so much effort to get someone to change their expression, only to be swayed by just one word.

Even so, Li Jingyang couldn't bear to make her uncomfortable, so he immediately placed his hand on her slender waist.

“I don’t want to see that person at all, you don’t need to worry.”

"Why should I worry? That's your own business."

"This is not my business, you are my wife!"

Lin Rusi heard the low growl behind her, but she didn't change at all. Her expression remained calm as she looked at her delicate pink fingers.

Unexpectedly, the other person had this expression, which made Li Jingyang even angrier. He raised his hand and turned the person to face him.

When their eyes met, Lin Rusi remained calm, looking at the other person indifferently, and finally even resting her chin on their shoulder.

"I'm a little sleepy; I felt dizzy looking at the ledgers just now."

The voice, which should have been soft and gentle, only made Li Jingyang angrier, and he raised his hand to push the person away.

"Sisi..."

Li Jingyang was furious and wanted to speak, but when he saw the closed eyelashes trembling from the sudden movement, he couldn't get the words out.

I gently placed her on the bed, wanting to say a few more words, when I met those eyes that showed no sign of sleepiness.

"Do you really have to avoid this?"

"Sisi!"

Lin Rusi ignored the angry roar behind her and turned around to crawl under the covers.

The next instant, a loud slam of a door slamming shut came from behind.

She was slightly stunned by what she hadn't expected, then closed her eyes and ignored the commotion outside.

The next day.

After finally venting his anger outside the city, he calmed down.

Hurrying back to the inn, Li Jingyang wanted to explain his feelings to Lin Rusi to ease her unease.

But fate had other plans, and the person who should have been driven away reappeared at the inn.

Fortunately, Lin Rusi was still unconscious at this time and did not see Shen Liuying.

Li Jingyang wanted to bypass the other person, but she was also trained and managed to grab them with difficulty.

"release."

In order to avoid being discovered by Lin Rusi, Li Jingyang could only lower his voice and warn this arrogant guy.

But Shen Liuying didn't care at all, and even squeezed out two tears, looking at the other person with a wronged expression.

"Young Master Lin, I don't want to leave. If my brother knew you were kicking me out like this, he would be so angry that we wouldn't even be able to be friends anymore."

"Whether you leave or not is none of my business. Let go of my hand now."

Shen Liuying tightened her grip even more, pulling the arm tightly and even pulling it towards her chest.

Realizing what the other person was thinking, Li Jingyang's face immediately darkened, and he raised his hand as if to throw the person away.

Then I heard Shen Liuying crying.

"My brother clearly told you to take good care of me, but now he wants to drive me away because of a misunderstanding."

"You're going to kick me out just because of a misunderstanding?"

As she spoke, Shen Liuying stopped clinging to Li Jingyang's arm and curled up into a ball, squatting on the ground and sobbing softly.

His pitiful appearance left Li Jingyang at a loss for what to do.

After all, the agreement was real, and the promise to take good care of each other was also real, but now it has affected the harmony of the couple, so they still need to think it over again.

Just as Li Jingyang was pondering, Shen Liuying's body began to tremble slightly, and even twitched a little.

"You can stay if you don't want to, but you can't stay in this inn. I'll leave a guard for you."

"But I don't know anyone here. Who knows if that person will look down on me or even bully me because of that misunderstanding?"

The sound was very soft, but it still reached Li Jingyang's ears with ease.

The other party heard it clearly and raised an eyebrow again, but in the end, they still chose to compromise and arranged for them to stay at the nearest inn.

Knowing that this was the other party's last retreat, Shen Liuying let out a soft cry, then raised her hand and hugged the person tightly.

Li Jingyang sensed something was wrong, took a step back to avoid the hand, and let the person fall to the side.

"Does Young Master Lin know about the situation next door? What if it's not safe?"

"Do you really think my guards are just sitting around doing nothing?"

Not wanting to pay any more attention to Shen Liuying, he turned his head to look at the still tightly closed door. He wanted to go forward, but found that she still hadn't left.

Noticing this, his gaze fell on the guard beside him.

The other party understood what was going to happen and immediately pulled the person down the stairs, preparing to find an empty room next door to settle them in.

But controlling Shen Liuying's figure wasn't enough; her mouth wouldn't stay quiet either.

“Young Master Lin, it’s a bit early now, you must not have had breakfast yet. Why don’t we go across the street for something to eat? I’ve heard that the jujube paste cake there is especially delicious.”

Li Jingyang ignored it, but stopped going upstairs. He hesitated and glanced at the opposite side, noticing that many people were sitting there. He then turned around and walked out.

Seeing him like this, Shen Liuying thought he was going to have breakfast with her, so she immediately followed him.

"Come and get some jujube paste cake to go."

"okay."

The other party skillfully wrapped up the things Li Jingyang needed and handed them over immediately.

Li Jingyang glanced at the guards, ordered them to keep an eye on the other party, and then walked towards the inn again.

"Sisi, I was wrong yesterday, please don't be angry anymore."

"You didn't eat anything yesterday, get up quickly and try what I brought back for you..."

Li Jingyang stared at the empty room, paused, then looked around before pushing open the window and looking down.

Even so, he still couldn't find that familiar figure, and his face immediately darkened.

"Sisi, stop making a fuss. I know it's my fault. We'll leave together tomorrow."

Li Jingyang still received no response, so he could only search the room, even searching under the bed.

The person was not found, but a piece of paper with ink still wet and a letter of parting were found.

He grabbed the piece of paper and jumped directly from the second floor, landing steadily in front of the shopkeeper.

"When did the lady upstairs leave?"

“This… I just saw someone go to the backyard, and it seems to be that lady who has been living here for quite some time.”

"When? I'll be gone in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

Xiao Er was shaken so hard by Li Jingyang that he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Li Jingyang held onto that thin shoulder tightly, and the immense force prevented him from fainting.

"Just a cup of tea ago, I was on my way to the backyard when I almost bumped into Madam."

Which direction did you go?

Upon hearing Li Jingyang's question, Xiao Er hesitated for a moment, but then, due to the sharp pain in his shoulder, he struggled to raise his hand and point towards the city gate.
