Time travel is risky, and love requires caution

Before Ling Qiqi could finish her words, Lu Cheng picked her up from the ground.

She was really scared, and the moment her feet left the ground, she subconsciously hugged Lu Cheng's neck tightly.

Their faces were too close, Ling Qiqi's eyes were almost out of focus, and she was forced to ask Lu Cheng face to face.

"Am I not sinking?"

"Shen."

"Put me down, I promise I won't run away. Let's talk about what we have to say. Don't pull or hug each other, it will cause misunderstanding if others see us." Ling Qiqi lobbied sincerely.

Lu Cheng hesitated for a moment, but finally put Ling Qiqi down and turned to walk towards the study. Ling Qiqi followed him obediently, but the more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became, so she taught Lu Cheng a lesson:

"We have to be careful and not get too casual. Don't forget that this is different from the real world. Men and women are not allowed to touch each other."

"So you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other."

"What do you mean?"

"You should stop hugging and cuddling with Ling Yi and Du Jingshan."

"Stop spitting blood at me. I always act out of emotion but stay within the bounds of propriety. You asked me to go to the study just to accuse me of being unfaithful to my husband, right?"

"Let's talk in the study."

Lu Cheng had a serious look on his face. Ling Qiqi knew that he had something important to say, so she stopped arguing with him and quickly followed Lu Cheng into the study.

After Lu Cheng sat down, he asked Ling Qiqi:

"I'm going back to Ximo in a few days, and I've been wanting to find a chance to ask you, what are your plans for the future?"

Ling Qiqi said desperately:

"What plans can I have? You came to me just to ask about this? Don't you know me? I am just doing my job as it comes."

"When will you, the Seventh Princess, take the time to formally hand over the business here to me?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"No need to hand it over. I find it troublesome. Please don't hand it over to me. I have been avoiding you on purpose these past few days because I am afraid that you will push a lot of things onto me."

"You really are avoiding me on purpose."

"Otherwise, do you think I really like to play so much?"

"do not you?"

"Okay, okay, I'll kill two birds with one stone, okay? Do you still need me for something?"

"The business here has long been on track. I'll leave Li Chuan to you to help you manage it. With Qi Qing and Du Jingshan, you should be able to continue to be a hands-off manager."

"What will you do if you leave Lichuan behind?"

"It's rare that you can still consider me. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"I have trained some secret guards in the past two years. They will secretly protect my safety, as well as yours."

"These two years? You sent people to monitor me in these two years?"

“It’s protection, but for a different purpose.”

"Who knows what your purpose is."

Lu Cheng took a deep breath and said:

"I don't want to argue with you."

Ling Qiqi looked up at Lu Cheng and tactfully changed the subject:

"Then let's keep Li Chuan as you said. He can concentrate on being Li San from now on. I think if he continues to play two roles, he will soon become schizophrenic."

"You really don't have any other plans?"

"At least I haven't planned to do that yet. I used to just want to be free from the palace, but now thanks to A'ran, my dream has come true so easily overnight, so I haven't had time to find a new goal yet."

"You are only free to leave the palace, but you are not free as a person."

"Well, you're right, so I just had a moment where I thought that I could consider marrying Pei Chufeng."

"What kind of logic is this? Even if marriage is not a bondage, it certainly cannot be free."

"You have a prejudice against marriage."

"I think you are attracted by her beauty."

"Didn't you tell me to marry someone with poor health? It would be best if I could become a widow after I marry her?"

"When did I say that?"

"Many years ago."

"I said so many things, but you didn't listen. Why did you remember this one sentence?"

"Because I think what you said makes sense. It's a great way to escape being single."

"I think you are just attracted by beauty."

"In your opinion, is Pei Chufeng a short-lived person?"

"How should I know? I'm neither a doctor nor a fortune teller."

"It would be such a pity if she died young. She was so beautiful. Alas, beautiful women have always been short-lived!" Ling Qiqi sighed with regret.

"Do you hope he dies sooner or lives longer?"

"It's all fine. I won't suffer any loss on either side. If I die early, I'll have freedom. If I live longer, I'll have handsome guys." Ling Qiqi looked like a lecherous female hooligan.

"You said you weren't attracted by her beauty, can you please have some shame?"

"I have never denied that I was attracted by beauty. Besides, it's because I want face too much. I want to see a handsome guy's face every day when I open my eyes. Tsk tsk tsk, how do you say he looks like? He is better looking than that stinky monkey Ling Yi. It's so worth it for me to travel through time this time. There are only handsome guys. It's so cool. I am definitely a winner in life. If this happened in the real world, I could only fantasize about it through the screen. Now it's so good. I can flirt with him as I like, hehehehe."

"I used to think you were obsessed with money, but now you are lusting after sex and have become obsessed with sex."

"Puh, puh, puh, how can you be so vulgar? This is called food, sex, and sexual desire."

"You don't want to be your Beiwei female marquis anymore?"

"Being a female marquis won't prevent me from getting married. I want to be a female marquis, but I don't want to be a female nun. I want to have both career and love, and both must be strong. Career requires patience, but fate is something that cannot be missed. I have to act early and not let other wild boars eat my juicy cabbage."

"I think you are desperate for sex."

"You don't understand. It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Stop caring about me and take care of yourself. You said you're not a child anymore, and there's no one who can make you fall in love?"

"Can you talk about something serious?"

"Yes, will there be any danger for you to return to Ximo? What is the Second Prince's intention?"

"There shouldn't be any risk for now. The Second Prince is just trying to win me over and use my relationship with Bei Wei to control the Third and Fourth Princes of Ximo."

"Don't think things are too simple. I think it's best for you to get engaged to the Sixth Princess before returning to Ximo?"

"why?"

"Look, no matter whether Beiwei and Nanshen will marry or not, I have already sworn brotherhood with A'ran. Even if I have established a friendship with Nanshen, it is very likely to stimulate the Ninth Prince to speed up the process of his plot. If he reaches a consensus with Ximo, the world will become two-on-two, and there is no guarantee that there will be war and chaos in the world. But if you marry Beiwei, it will not only help to increase your value, but also make the Northern Emperor rest assured that you will not repay kindness with enmity after returning to Ximo. It will also allow you to quickly gain a foothold among the princes of Ximo and become an important link between Beiwei and Ximo. Anyone who wants to offend you must think twice. The most important thing is that if Beiwei and Ximo marry, it will make the Ninth Prince cautious about Ximo, and the three kingdoms can continue to maintain a superficial balance, and the world can be peaceful for a few more days. Sacrifice you, and thousands of families will be happy."

"I know."

"Then why are you asking?"

"I mean why is it the Sixth Princess?"

"Are you interested in the Fifth Princess? Tsk tsk tsk, is there something wrong with your taste? Although the Sixth Princess isn't that great, at least she's easier to manipulate than the Fifth Princess."

"I don't like either of them. I like you."

"Who?"

"you."

"But I don't fancy you."

Lu Cheng suddenly stood up and glared at Ling Qiqi, who was so scared that she surrendered with both hands:

"A gentleman speaks with his words but never with his hands."
