Junior sister, she reached the pinnacle of life by picking up rags

"Isn't it okay? He likes you anyway, at least you won't die if you follow him."

"And didn't you tell me not to care whether you live or die?"

Yan Yun sat on the chair, withdrew his gaze from the window, turned his back to him, and spoke in a surprisingly cold voice.

Lian Heng didn't know what to say for a moment. Although he was the one who said this, how could this be the same as if it fell into Zhirong's hands?

Looking at her almost ruthless appearance, and thinking about how he was moved by her putting him back into the storage bag just now, he was so angry that he grabbed the vase on the table and threw it down.

"Snapped--"

The sound of the vase breaking was particularly loud in the house, and then the two of them fell into silence for a long time.

"Host, do you really want to use him as a bargaining chip?"

Duocai shut off her thoughts, so naturally he couldn't hear her, "Are you so heartless?"

It didn't believe it. If she was really so heartless, she wouldn't be here now.

"You'd better not plan any more tricks for me. It doesn't matter whether you save unimportant people or not."

Duocai doesn't understand human thinking. For their system, the interests of the host are paramount, and everything else is irrelevant.

Yan Yun: Yeah, don't worry.

"you……"

She turned around and looked at Lian Heng, who was still depressed and angry.

He was leaning against the couch, his loose black hair covering most of his face, his brows were vaguely visible, and underneath was a fluffy white fox fur blanket. His red clothes were particularly eye-catching.

Lian Heng didn't want to talk to her, but he felt that he was angry for no reason.

I was so depressed for a while.

"Don't be angry, go back to the flowers first, or he might come and catch you suddenly."

Yan Yun was helpless. She really didn't intend to use him as a bargaining chip. Under the circumstances at that time, she could only agree first.

Otherwise, neither of them will end up well.

But if she told him, she was afraid that Lian Heng would be tricked by Zhirong, the old fox, and both of them would be in a worse situation then.

"You've already used me as a bargaining chip, why are you still worried about what I'm going to do? If I get caught, I'll get caught..."

Before he could finish his words, he felt Zhirong's aura, and immediately he lost his nerve and went straight into her storage bag.

"..."

Yan Yun, who had just been stunned by his reprimand, saw him suddenly come back and knew that Zhirong was here again.

She stood up vigilantly, and sure enough, the next second, Zhirong pushed the door open and walked in.

Zhirong was followed by a large group of attendants, who bowed their heads respectfully and held plates in their hands.

They came in one after another, filled the table with food, and then lifted the red cloth, almost blinding Yan Yun's eyes.

South Sea pearls, white jade glass stones, blood-red corals... and one intricate and gorgeous piece of clothing after another.

Further on, there were snacks and pastries whose fragrance filled the entire room.

Zhirong knew that Lian Heng had just come out, and his eyes fell on the storage bag on Yan Yun's waist.

All the things presented to him were what Lian Heng liked. Zhirong knew that he could not bear the hardship and it was only a matter of time before he gave in.

At first, he was just too impatient...

"..."

There was a look of eagerness and determination in Zhirong's eyes, which made Yanyun feel uncomfortable.

As soon as he left, Lian Heng came out again.

He sat at Yan Yun's feet, trying hard not to look at the things he liked, "Don't believe him, he's very hypocritical, you don't even know how he treated me before."

Yan Yun's hand fell gently on his head, as if to comfort him and to reassure him.

He raised his head in surprise, and his nose brushed across her palm, making her feel a little itchy, and he quickly retracted his nose.

"Zhirong is a madman..."

Lian Heng leaned on her legs, not knowing how to express the resentment in his heart, mainly because it was a little difficult to say it out loud.

"Are you really going to use me as a bargaining chip? You're going to use me as a bargaining chip and protect me."

He stayed in the storage bag and calmed down for a while. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. She gave him water when he was in the clam shell, saved him in the Black River, gave him a protective shield when he was in the water, and even held him back from going down the secret passage...

When Lian Zhirong came to kill her, she was so weak that she stood in front of him.

Yan Yun glanced at him and said, "Of course I am using you as a bargaining chip. You and I have no relationship, what are you dreaming about? I am protecting you only because I think you are useful."

Her words were cold, but her hand quickly tapped the tip of his ear.

The wall has ears.

Lian Heng immediately understood what she meant and felt relieved. He said that he was still very smart!

So is he going to act now?

The thought of this made him excited; he liked this.

As soon as she saw his bright eyes, she knew he had figured it out.

"You heartless woman, I must have been blind to think you were a good person."

Lian Heng stood up and condemned Yan Yun with a cold snort.

"..."

What? You still want to scold her after knowing the truth?

He sat aside. Although he was very determined not to take anything from Zhirong, the sweet smell of cakes kept wafting through the room...

Forget it, he just endures it!

As night fell, she looked out the window. The sky here didn't look like the sky. It felt more like a piece of paper that could be punctured. She didn't know how to describe it, it was just very strange.

"This is the world opened up by Zhirong."

Lian Heng also came over and pointed at the sky. "Beyond this is the Black River. If this piece of sky is broken, the water of the Black River will flood this place."

He had been with Zhirong since he was a little girl, so naturally he knew a lot.

The two stayed here for several days and Zhirong showed no intention of taking them to the Eye at the Bottom of the River.

Yan Yun couldn't figure out what he was thinking and could only wait quietly.

In the past few days, she has learned a lot from Lian Heng. The Eye at the Bottom of the River is the eye of the entire Heihe River and the place of origin of the Heihe River.

Lian Heng only knew that it was connected to a secret realm, but he had never been there.

"Zhirong is the only one among us who has successfully left. He later came back."

Lian Heng lay on the beauty bed, as lazy as a cat, "But I don't know how to enter the Eye at the bottom of the river."

He asked Zhirong back then, but he was unwilling to tell him.

She suddenly remembered Duocai's words. Even if she found the place where the two were connected, she might not be able to get out?

She lowered her eyes, thinking about what this sentence meant.

Secret realm, what kind of secret realm could it be?

"Or let's escape."

Lian Heng couldn't stay any longer, so he walked over to her and whispered in her ear, "I'll use my charm to control them, and then..."

"how?"

Although Zhirong has not come over in the past few days, he is becoming more and more anxious, and always feels that Zhirong must be doing something secretly.

Yan Yun raised her eyes, frowned slightly, and thought about the method he mentioned.

There was a hint of anticipation and anxiety in his eyes, as if he couldn't wait to get her approval.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

There was a knock on the door, followed by the voice of a maid, "The Lord will host a banquet at Tianji Palace tonight at 12:00 p.m. to welcome the young lady. I hope the young lady can bring Master Lian Heng to the banquet on time."

Throw a banquet to welcome her?

Tian Zhirong would have wanted to kill her directly, so why would he specially hold a banquet to welcome her? I'm afraid it was the Hongmen Banquet.
