Both worlds are like dreams

Xuyao looked at her with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

However, before he could raise any doubts, Xue Huang began to speak rapidly, "Since you are asking me, why don't you think about whether I know the answer before asking? Even if I know the answer, why should I tell you? Since you asked me and I answered you, why don't you believe it? If you don't believe me, why are you asking me?"

Xuyao: Is your brain damaged?

Xiao Ling'er couldn't help laughing and said, "You little girl, you are really sharp-tongued. It was Gu Qinglan who made you unhappy, but you took it out on the master. How about the master and I help you teach him a lesson?"

"Don't go!"

"unwilling?"

"What's it got to do with you?" Xue Huang snorted.

Xu Yao said, "I chose to ask you just to know whether cooperating with me was your suggestion or Wei Yunzhou's plan."

"The cooperation has already been established, what's the point of asking these questions?"

"Because I am pursuing a secret, and this secret is very likely the truth behind the destruction of Beiyuan. Only a few people know this secret. How did Wei Yunzhou know it, and what is his reason for pursuing it?"

Xue Huang raised her eyebrows, "So Second Uncle didn't fool me. The condition he promised you is this secret."

Xu Yao frowned slightly. In this case, the conditions proposed by Wei Yunzhou were not instructed by Xue Huang. Then why did Wei Yunzhou keep pursuing the truth? Was it for the secret or some other reason?

"You trust him a lot?"

Xue Huang nodded, "Of course, he is my uncle."

"What will you do if one day you find out that he will be your enemy?"

Xue Huang felt that his words were a bit puzzling, and frowned, "I don't want to hurt you, but I still want to say, don't think that just because someone you trust has betrayed you, there is no trust anymore in this world. My second uncle is very good to me. He has hidden many things from me, but he would never do anything to hurt me. I also remind you not to hurt him, otherwise I will not forgive you."

Xu Yao's expression turned cold. "Then I also remind you that Wei Yunzhou and I are only in a cooperative relationship at the moment. I will keep my promise and will not embarrass him, including the people he cares about. But if he stands in my way, then there is only one way to go, and that is death."

Xue Huang twitched her lips and looked at him angrily. In a sense, Wei Yunzhou and Xu Yao were on the same path, but Xue Huang couldn't tell him Wei Yunzhou's true identity. After all, the more people knew, the more danger there was, and that identity was something Wei Yunzhou didn't want to mention, so she wouldn't say much.

But she didn't want to see them hurt each other here, both of them would suffer, so she said: "Only by changing positions at the right time can we both get what we need. You should think about it carefully."

Xu Yao sneered, "Then do you know where you stand?"

"Stop dragging this into my head, okay?" Xue Huang said helplessly. "I only care about one thing right now, and that's Mo Xingyue's safety. You promised my second uncle that you wouldn't hurt her."

"I made a promise and I won't break it."

"You can't abuse her either," Xue Huang thought for a moment and said, "She is also very valuable to you. At least you should let her eat and drink well."

Xu Yao twitched his mouth. Mo Xingyue was the princess of the Beiling royal family and one of his enemies. It was good enough that he didn't kill her with a single sword. Why did he have to treat her with delicious food and drinks?

Xue Huang saw the displeasure in his eyes, and was afraid that he would kill Mo Xingyue in anger, so she quickly said, "It doesn't matter if she doesn't eat or drink well, just let her live well and don't bully her."

Xiao Ling'er sighed, looked at her and smiled: "You silly girl! You have repeatedly driven yourself to death for others. Why don't you think more about yourself?"

Xue Huang did not answer, but only said: "If you have nothing else to do, I will go back."

Xu Yao said nothing and turned away.

Xiao Ling'er asked, "Do you have anything you want me to tell Mo Xingyue?"

“Be strong and brave, eat well and drink well.”

"Don't worry." Xiao Ling'er said. "The master won't make things difficult for her."

"Also," Xue Huang said, looking at Xu Yao's back, "thank you for saving me last time."

Xuyao didn't look back and walked away as if he didn't hear anything.

Xiao Ling'er smiled and said, "See you another day."

Xue Huang watched them walk away, and slowly walked down the mountain.

Gu Qinglan had been waiting for her downstairs. Seeing her come back, he smiled and said, "Go and have a rest."

Xue Huang nodded, "I just met Xu Yao up there, but he doesn't plan to see you. But don't worry, Xingyue is fine."

"He didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

"No," Xue Huang said with a smile, "We are in a cooperative relationship now, how could he embarrass me?"

"I have to go back to the palace early tomorrow morning and help Your Highness deal with some things. You should stay here and take good care of your injuries."

"I want to go back, too."

"This is Brother Wei's arrangement. He hopes you can stay away from this matter for the time being."

Xue Huang had no choice but to agree, "Okay."

"Okay, go back to sleep."

Xue Huang nodded and walked back to her room, but she was not sleepy at all.

Gu Qinglan also sat in another room until dawn.
