The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

Chapter 42 He was upset

As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, he turned around and left without looking back, without any intention of staying. Mu Yang was left standing there in a daze, as if he was frozen in place, unable to move for a long time.

When Jiang Li said that, it was like a sharp sword piercing Mu Yang's heart, causing him to feel a sharp pain. He stared at Jiang Li's receding figure with disbelief, and a sense of inexplicable loss and confusion surged in his heart.

Mu Yang subconsciously touched his chest, trying to calm down the strange feeling, but found that his heartbeat was unusually violent and his chest became unusually heavy. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but the words Jiang Li had just said kept echoing in his mind, making him more upset.

Liu Jiaojiao stared at the Third Prince in front of her, feeling an inexplicable worry. According to the information she had, the Third Prince should have felt disgust towards Jiang Li, but the scene before her was completely different - the Third Prince looked at Jiang Li with a puzzled look, without any hatred at all.

Absolutely not! Liu Jiaojiao gnashed her teeth secretly. She would never allow this situation to continue. Anyone or anything that might interfere with her plan must be completely eliminated. Her originally charming eyes became extremely fierce at this moment. She stared at Jiang Li's back as he walked away, as if she wanted to eat him alive.

At this moment, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and a bright smile bloomed on her face. Then, she stepped forward lightly and stood firmly in front of the third prince. This action just blocked Mu Yang's gaze towards Jiang Li.

Her voice was clear and pleasant, like the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley: "Third Prince, thank you very much for your righteous words just now. Jiaojiao is extremely grateful and I really don't know how to repay you. How about Jiaojiao treating you to a meal together?" Her words were full of sincerity and enthusiasm, making it hard to refuse.

Mu Yang was originally immersed in his own thoughts, and was suddenly interrupted, which made him feel a little irritated. However, when he saw the bright smile on the other person's face, he couldn't get angry. After all, you shouldn't hit a smiling person! However, at this moment, he couldn't help but recall what Jiang Li had just said to Liu Jiaojiao, which made him begin to have deep doubts about Liu Jiaojiao's true intentions.

Liu Jiaojiao has been very smart since she was young, and is good at observing people's expressions. At this moment, facing the third prince in front of her, she keenly captured the changing expressions on his face. The third prince's face was sometimes solemn, sometimes puzzled, and sometimes thoughtful. These subtle changes made Liu Jiaojiao think to herself: "It seems that the third prince has some doubts about me."

There is no doubt that all this stems from the fact that Jiang Li just said it too bluntly.

As her eyes turned, Liu Jiaojiao decided to find a way to dispel the Third Prince's suspicion. So, she smiled and said softly, "Your Highness, Third Prince, do you believe everything Miss Jiang Li said? Do you also think Jiaojiao is a scheming person?" After that, she glanced at the Third Prince from the corner of her eye, trying to get more clues from his reaction.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the Third Prince's expression softened slightly, but his eyes were still deep and difficult to understand.

Liu Jiaojiao realized that the wisest thing to do at this moment was to leave quickly, so she smiled and said, "If the Third Prince feels that it is inconvenient, then we can make an appointment another day. It's time for Jiaojiao to go home." After speaking, Liu Jiaojiao bowed slightly and then turned around and left resolutely. Her steps were firm and resolute, just like Jiang Li, without any hesitation or attachment.

Seeing Liu Jiaojiao like this made Mu Yang think to himself: "It seems that she doesn't look like the kind of person who is cunning and has ulterior motives!" Just as Liu Jiaojiao took a few steps forward, Mu Yang suddenly called her to stop.

"Miss Liu, please wait a moment! I was a little out of control just now, I hope you can forgive me." Mu Yang was secretly annoyed. Why was he so easily disturbed by Jiang Li's words? He seemed a little abnormal today.

Looking at Liu Jiaojiao in front of him, Mu Yang took a deep breath. He smiled and said, "Miss Liu, I am really sorry for what happened today. Jiang Li might have been dragged into you because of me."

After saying these words, Mu Yang calmed down a little. He turned and left, leaving behind a graceful back. Liu Jiaojiao, who was standing there, looked at the direction where he was leaving thoughtfully...

Liu Jiaojiao realized something bad at this moment. The Third Prince himself might not know that he was apologizing for Jiang Li. Shouldn't he hate Jiang Li? What went wrong?

Liu Jiaojiao also left after the two of them left. However, at this moment, a figure quietly appeared at the door of Liweilou.

Jiang Bu stood there quietly, his hands folded across his chest, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He stared straight ahead, as if he could see everything that had just happened through a long distance. He secretly rejoiced in his heart: "My sister has finally learned to fight back!" Recalling the scene of his sister confronting others without fear just now, Jiang Bu couldn't help but feel relieved and proud.

Jiang Bu has always known his sister's kindness, but he also knows that she needs to learn to protect herself. Now, seeing his sister stand up firmly and face the challenge bravely, Jiang Bu is sincerely happy for her. He knows that this means that his sister has gradually let go of the shadow of the past and started to find herself again.

"Maybe, this is what growth is..." Jiang Bu muttered to himself. He believed that in the days to come, his sister would become stronger and more confident. And as an older brother, he would always be by his sister's side, giving her the warmest support and encouragement. Thinking of this, Jiang Bu showed a gentle smile on his face.
