Female martial arts fanatics only love to fight, while men fight for their lives.

As to why His Majesty wanted him to go to the dark prison to observe Lou Xiao, Li Huaiqing was pleased but he still had some questions.

He thought that he was going to be re-employed, and it was a test for him to see if he really had any hidden feelings towards Lou Xiao...

But maybe in the end, it's just because he's the best.

Lou Xiao was not in a good state at that time. He could see that, although the two of them did not do anything.

But when she looked at him with such emotionless eyes, Li Huaiqing couldn't help feeling a little scared.

No matter how vicious a person is, as long as he has emotions, thoughts and can communicate, he is not scary.

The only thing was that when I couldn't hear anything she said and was held down by her hand and couldn't move, it felt like being pressed down by a mountain. No one would feel good about that feeling of powerlessness.

Is this the danger for people who practice martial arts?

No wonder she was given such a thick iron chain.

Li Huaiqing thought that no matter what she wanted to do at that time, no one could stop her.

Can that fine iron chain really lock her up?

Why did Lou Xiao ask to be put in a dark prison for suspected murder? Even put in chains?

Maybe the reason lies with her that day.

After reporting to the empress, Li Huaiqing returned to his palace and calmed himself down temporarily.

He had originally wanted to visit her in a few days, but he didn't expect that Lou Xiao's chained figure kept lingering in his mind.

I think about it when I write, when I play the piano, and even when I appreciate the paintings of antique masters, I can't help but think of his unfinished paintings.

The painting shows her in chains but meditating peacefully.

"I'm so crazy."

Li Huaiqing murmured.

When he realized that he could not get rid of this scene no matter what, Li Huaiqing finally picked up the food box and slowly walked into the dark prison.

As if nothing had changed, she still sat there motionless, and even though he looked at her in the dark for a long time, she did not speak.

It was not until Li Huaiqing came closer that Lou Xiao suddenly stood up. The sound of the chain being pulled was very loud.

The two men stared at each other through the cell door, and neither of them said a word.

Li Huaiqing was not sure if she was still sane, if she still had the desire to attack, and if she could recognize who he was.

The chain was pulled tight by her, as if it could break at any moment.

And it seemed that she could strike at any time and put Li Huaiqing's life in danger.

In the end, it was Lou Xiao who spoke first, "You shouldn't have come."

As long as she said that, Li Huaiqing felt relieved and relaxed, "If I don't come, no one will come."

Lou Xiao turned away and didn't look at him, "It's best if you don't come."

Hearing the sound of Li Huaiqing opening the cell door, Lou Xiao turned around in disbelief and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you? Without Ai Ying by your side, no one can save you."

Even in the dark prison, there was no one near her cell. If she asked for something, it would be fine. But if she killed him,

No one will even know...

This place is specially used to detain serious criminals.

"you will not."

Li Huaiqing put the food box on the table, spread out the freshly baked exquisite pastries one by one, then picked out the newly developed vegetarian jade radish cake, picked up a piece and handed it to his mouth.

Lou Xiao stared at him intently, and Li Huaiqing neither retreated nor avoided. It seemed like they were in a stalemate and neither of them was willing to give in.

In the end, Lou Xiao was the first to give in. She opened her mouth, bit the Su Yu Luo Cake, and looked away.

Li Huaiqing curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled, full of pride. His eyes fell on her cheek and he thought she was really cute.

"I can't even guarantee that I won't kill you. You came here knowing there was danger. Was this His Majesty's order?"

Even Xiao Zhengdu couldn't come to see him, so Li Huaiqing came again and again. Apart from getting permission from his senior sister, was there any other reason?

So...senior sister is also observing her?
