Huanmei ignored the cup that hit her feet and flew in, her arms hanging around Gu Yingxi's neck and her tail wrapped around Li Murong's body.
"No way—Xiao Rong is here too!"
Huanmei took a big sip on Gu Yingxi's face, then pulled Li Murong over with her tail. She opened her arms and hugged her from left to right.
Li Murong struggled twice symbolically.
Gu Yingxi was indifferent, his expression cold and proud.
Huanmei: "Xiao Xi, you already know that Xiao Rong is here to save you, right? So you clearly wronged me before, should you compensate me?"
Gu Yingxi glanced coldly: "If it weren't for your own virtue, how could I have wronged you?"
Huanmei's ears fell down and her mouth became deflated.
She leaned towards Li Murong: "Were you just discussing how to escape?"
Li Murong: "So what?"
Huan Mei came up and said, "No, no, no, Xiao Rong is so honest, I like her so much!"
Li Murong's cheeks were reddened by her and she couldn't hide away. When Gu Yingxi saw this, a flash of worry flashed in his eyes, and then he snorted deliberately.
Huanmei immediately stopped moving.
Gu Yingxi: "Are you so happy to know that we want to escape?"
Huan Mei: "I——"
Gu Yingxi: "You really don't like me!"
Huan Mei: "I'm not——"
Gu Yingxi: "You don't care about me at all."
Huanmei: "Listen to me——"
"I really shouldn't have expectations for you."
When he said this, Gu Yingxi's eyes dimmed imperceptibly, and his voice was just the right amount of low. The coldness emanating from his body faded away a lot, as if a gap had opened under the iceberg, and the hidden vulnerability gushed out.
Huanmei grabbed her ears and shouted distressedly: "Ah ah ah Xiao Xi——"
Huan Mei turned her back to Li Murong, unaware that Li Murong's eyes were full of admiration when she looked at Gu Yingxi.
Ji Yanzhu: "It really looks like that."
Jing Yingrong: "Yeah."
Ji Sha Sword: "Learn more."
Jing Yingrong: "I can't learn."
Ji Yanzhu: "But is the Phantom Beast Emperor really so generous? Doesn't she care at all about her man's plan to escape?"
Ji Jiebi smiled and said: "This is not called magnanimity, it should be called - 'arrogance'."
Huanmei hugged Gu Yingxi lovingly, forgetting Li Murong's existence for a moment.
Li Murong took the opportunity to sit a little further away.
Huanmei: "I just think this escape game is fun. It's definitely not that I don't like or care about you. Xiao Xi, believe me."
Gu Yingxi raised her eyelids slightly: "Seriously?"
Huan Mei nodded like a pound of garlic.
Gu Yingxi: "Then I want three Youe stones."
Huan Mei paused, her aura weakened a few levels: "What do you want that for?"
A flute appeared in Gu Yingxi's hand and said: "Smelt my magic weapon and upgrade it to a higher level."
He glanced sideways at Huan Mei: "Are you reluctant to part with it? You can't even part with a mere foreign object. How can I trust you?"
"No, no, it's just the You'er Stone! But I only have two of these on hand. I'll give them to you when I ask someone to collect the third one, okay? Don't be angry, eh?"
Huan Mei coaxed softly, and Gu Yingxi finally looked good.
Huanmei thought of the other person present, and hurriedly turned to Li Murong as if she was afraid of neglecting him.
"What magic weapon is Xiaorong using? How about I change it to a better one for you?"
Li Murong raised his palm lightly, and a jade-white Yaoqin was suspended in front of him. At the same time, he said softly: "No need."
Huan Mei looked at Yao Qin and her eyes lit up: "Like Xiao Xi, she is a music magic weapon. It seems that Xiao Rong is also proficient in music theory. Then, play a little tune for me?"
Li Murong: "Humph."
Huanmei: "Just play one."
Li Murong put on a "rejection" expression on her face.
Huanmei teased him with her hands up and down.
Li Murong resisted to no avail, as if she finally couldn't bear the trouble, she said: "I'm not good at this."
Huanmei heard the hint of relief, her eyes filled with joy, and said: "How can your playing be bad? It must be the best."
Li Murong: "..."
He was silent and stroked the strings with his long fingers.
Huanmei's eyes sparkled with anticipation.
Li Murong started playing.
One breath passed.
Two breaths passed.
Three breaths passed.
Four breaths...
Huanmei suddenly reached out and grabbed Li Murong's wrist.
Li Murong looked up at her.
The charming smile is still charming and charming.
"Okay, okay, take a rest and don't be tired. Xiaorong wants You'e Stone, what about you? Is there anything you want?"
Li Murong: "Freedom."
"Can't."
"The forbidden 'key' here."
"this……"
"A drop of your blood."
"OK."
Huanmei didn't react until she agreed. Before she could speak, Li Murong said, "Very good. I'll play another song to thank you for your kindness."
"No need, no need!"
Huanmei hurriedly stopped him.
Li Murong looked directly at her. Huanmei seemed to have predicted what he wanted to say, and said first: "Ah! Well, I remembered that I still have something to do. Oh, it's so annoying. I wanted to spend more time with you, but it's all my fault. Yan and the others are not doing their job well, and they still have to worry about me, which is so annoying."
As she spoke, she stood up, faced the two of them with a smile on her face, and walked back to the door step by step, "I will come with you after I finish the work. You have to be good."
After saying this, Huanmei had already stepped out of the door, and the next moment she turned around and ran away.
The room fell silent.
Jing Yingrong turned to look at Gu Yingxi.
"I play badly?"
Gu Yingxi looked calm and said slowly: "I think you should be aware of it."
Jing Yingrong: "No."
Gu Yingxi: "..."
Gu Yingxi wanted to say something, but thinking about the image he had worked so hard to disguise, he held back his words.
Jing Yingrong didn't ask again. She took out a jade slip, entered some information into it, and then handed it to Gu Yingxi.
Gu Yingxi took the jade slip and looked it over briefly, giving her a questioning look.
Jing Yingrong rummaged around in the ring, picked out a lot of materials, put them into a storage bag, gave them to Gu Yingxi, and said, "Making materials."
Gu Yingxi: "You want me to make these things?"
Jing Yingrong nodded and said, "You can ask me if you don't understand anything."
Gu Yingxi: "I don't see the use of these things."
Jing Yingrong: "Because you only have half of it, and I'll do the other half."
Gu Yingxi thought for a long time and seemed to have some enlightenment. At the same time, he had more questions.
But he said nothing and carefully studied the information in the jade slips.
…
The Phantom Beast King slipped out and was thinking about which palace to go to - to watch Xiao Qiu dance, or to play chess with Xiao Zhuo?
It would be best if she could forget about the weird melody that was playing in her head.
However, at this moment, the jade-horned snake entered her field of vision.
"Your Majesty, bring Xiaodie."
The horned snake is followed by a butterfly. The butterfly was about the same size as an ordinary country butterfly, not as big as one scale of a jade-horned snake, but its wings were very beautiful, with golden patterns flashing on the pink and white background, like a burning peach blossom inlaid with gold threads.
The butterfly flew close and stayed on Huan Mei's curled knuckles.
Huanmei: "You came very quickly. Yu Yan has told you about the mission of this trip, right? Do you have any objections?"
The butterfly's pale red antennae trembled slightly. It couldn't speak human words, but Huanmei "heard" its answer.
Huanmei: "Well, just take your subordinates with you in the city. Don't use the forces left behind in Fangqiu."
The butterfly responded.
Huanmei added: "I will let the little eagle protect you. It is only responsible for protecting you and will not interfere with your decision. Once you get there, you have to make your own decisions about everything. I only want one result, don't let it I’ll be embarrassed in front of Chu Cang, okay?”
When she said the last sentence, her smile became sweeter and sweeter, as if she was making some kind of innocent agreement.
Butterfly lowered its head, its curled mouthparts lightly touching Huan Mei's skin, like a kiss.
