Chapter 2269 - 2269 It Was Nothing

2269 It Was Nothing

Is Liang He crazy? The corners of Xiao Ba’s mouth twitched as she took a half-step back. “This… isn’t too good, right?”

Liang He hurriedly said, “Miss Xiao Ba, I remember you saying that the person you like isn’t in Fantasy Divine Palace, right? If he doesn’t come, then… Miss Xiao Ba, can you consider me for the time being?”

Xiao Ba took another half-step back. “You mean… you want me to be with you first and leave when they come?”

Liang He was extremely embarrassed, but he still nodded.

When he heard Xiao Ba say those words that day, he was indeed extremely angry. That was why he left angrily after saying those harsh words.

But in the past few days, Xiao Ba’s figure kept appearing in his mind. He couldn’t sleep well and couldn’t do anything; he was in a mess. Therefore, after thinking about it, he finally made this extremely difficult decision.

Although he also felt that this was very bad, he felt a little relieved after saying it. Of course, he had his own plans.

What kind of place was Fantasy Divine Palace? How could one come just because they wanted to?

Perhaps that person would never come. Even if they came, he could still deal with them.

When Xiao Ba saw his determined expression, as if he really planned to do this, she instantly felt uncomfortable. What’s going on?

After waiting for a long time for Xiao Ba’s reply, Liang He was a little nervous. “Miss Xiao Ba, what do you think?”

“I—”

“Xiao Ba.” Suddenly, a calm and slightly cold voice came from behind.

Xiao Ba looked up and saw that someone had already opened the door to the courtyard. He was holding his sword with both hands and standing upright, looking over indifferently.

It was Yan Qing.

Xiao Ba widened her eyes in shock, almost suspecting that she had seen wrongly. Isn’t this person at Peach Blossom Dock? Why is he suddenly here?

After thinking for a moment, she immediately realized something. “You came with His Highness?”

Yan Qing nodded his head, his expression still handsome and cold. His gaze swept across the two of them and lingered on Liang He for a moment. “Liang He?”

Liang He was stunned. “You know me?”

Yan Qing said calmly, “I’ve heard of you.”

Liang He was even more puzzled. This person doesn’t seem to be from Fantasy Divine Palace.

“You’re—”

He came out of the courtyard and seems to be very familiar with Xiao Ba…

She came to Yan Qing’s side and looked up at him. Her weak little hand had already climbed onto his arm as she said softly, “Yan Qing, you’re finally here. I’ve waited so long!”

Yan Qing’s body stiffened. He wanted to push her hand away, but when he looked down and saw the light in her beautiful eyes, he suddenly stopped.

Liang He was also stunned. “Miss Xiao Ba, you are…”

During this period of time, he had some understanding of Xiao Ba. Although she was enchanting and beautiful, she was actually very distant and polite when interacting with others.

Apart from Chu Liuyue and the rest, she was cold to most of the others and didn’t even bother to say much, let alone make such an intimate gesture.

Xiao Ba leaned forward, planning to hug Yan Qing’s arm.

But at this moment, Yan Qing held his sword with both hands and didn’t move. It was simply an iron tube defense.

She glared up at him and reached out to pinch his waist. “Give me your arm! Hurry!”

Would it kill him to cooperate?!

In the end, before she could twist it, Yan Qing’s waist was lean. Under his thin clothes, there were extremely tough muscles.

Her pinch was like a game.

Yan Qing looked down at her.

Xiao Ba threw two glares at him. Only then did Yan Qing let go of his arm.

Xiao Ba immediately took advantage of the situation and grabbed his arm with her slender white arm, then leaned closer to him.

Her skin was really too fair. Under the sunlight, it glowed brightly—it was as if a little force would leave a mark on it.

Yan Qing looked away calmly.

Xiao Ba had already turned to look at Liang He. “Now—do you understand?”

Liang He’s face turned pale. He never expected that he would come in the blink of an eye after gritting his teeth and making such a difficult decision.

He paused for a moment before asking, “Is… is this the person you like?”

Yan Qing’s glabella moved.

Right on the heels of that, he heard the woman beside him laugh gently. “Yes.”

Yan Qing lowered his eyes slightly.

“Looks, figure, and temperament. Which one of them isn’t the best?” As Xiao Ba spoke, she tapped the back of Yan Qing’s hand. “I remember that you broke through to become a legendary warrior before, right?”

Yan Qing paused. “Yes.”

Xiao Ba smiled proudly. Very good! What I want is to crush him!

“Liang He, do you still want to compete now? If you were me, who would you choose?”

Liang He was speechless.

It was one thing to hear about it before, but it was another thing to see it with his own eyes. If this person hadn’t come, he could still convince himself, but now…

He watched with his own eyes as such a man stood beside her, and she leaned against him intimately.

The two of them were almost intimate, as if they were a pair of perfect lovers.

If he continued to pester her, he would really become the joke of the entire Fantasy Divine Palace!

Liang He gritted his teeth, but his face was pale. If I had known…

“I—”

“Liang He, right?” Before he could continue, Yan Qing’s arm fell and held Xiao Ba’s hand.

The warmth of his palm immediately made Xiao Ba shiver and turn to look at him in surprise.

However, Yan Qing’s expression was as cold as ever. He looked at Liang He and said calmly, “Since she has already rejected you, please respect yourself. From today onwards, you’re only allowed to be ten steps away from her. Otherwise—you don’t want to know how fast my sword is.”

The last sentence was cold and heavy, clearly a blatant threat!

Liang He’s face turned red with embarrassment. But as a heavenly doctor, he would only fight a legendary warrior if he couldn’t think straight!

However, Yan Qing could no longer be bothered with his answer. He pulled Xiao Ba and turned to enter. “Xiao Ba, let’s go.”

Xiao Ba blinked and looked at Liang He’s defeated expression. As expected, he didn’t chase after her.

The door to the courtyard closed quickly.

Liang He stood there for a while, feeling extremely embarrassed, and finally left in a hurry.

Xiao Ba turned around and saw that he had already fled. She immediately narrowed her eyes in satisfaction and smiled. To deal with such a person, one has to use ruthless methods!

Although she was shocked when she first heard him agree to her suggestion, after thinking about it carefully, she felt that something was wrong.

Liang He was the youngest Supreme Physician in Fantasy Divine Palace. How could he really do this?

The moment Yan Qing appeared, he was forced to retreat.

She turned back. “Lord Yan Qing, thank you! I didn’t expect you to be so sensible!”

Yan Qing let go of her hand. His fingertips still seemed to have that delicate and smooth touch.

There was also a faint fragrance on them.

He said softly, “It’s nothing. You don’t have to thank me.”
