Crossing the Passenger Sacrifice

"She seems unconvinced, and looks like she wants to stop you from being given an official title before her..." As Li Huoyue retreated, Sang Fuqing breathed a sigh of relief and spoke slowly.

"So, you control her because you want me to be promoted to an official position smoothly?" Li Huoyue asked again.

Sang Fuqing nodded, trying to look well-behaved and obedient, and not threatening.

Li Huoyue smiled and said, "Don't you think this is contradictory?"

After saying that, Li Huoyue had already started thinking about how to deal with Sang Fuqing later, and the leaves in his hand were squeezed a little harder.

The clan leader knew that he would be given an official title, so he asked Sang Fuqing's mother not to cancel the engagement. However, he controlled Xu Jiao'er so that he could be given an official title smoothly. The "cooperation" he mentioned at the beginning was just bullshit.

You came here late at night just to talk nonsense?

Li Huoyue didn't believe it.

Sang Fuqing's attention was completely on Li Huoyue's hand. Seeing the leaves in Li Huoyue's hand slowly being clenched, Sang Fuqing's heart also tightened.

He was totally unaware of what was wrong with his words. He laughed dryly and replied, "Haha... no way..."

After hearing the answer, Li Huoyue loosened his grip, letting the leaf slip from his hand, and turned around to return to his seat.

But, people cannot be killed now.

Kill him the day after tomorrow.

Li Huoyue thought to himself.

Before the leaf fell to the ground, Sang Fuqing's face changed and he jumped up. With everyone's eyes still on him, he did something that no one would have thought of -

I knelt down instinctively.

Hearing a "bang" sound behind him, Li Huoyue turned around in surprise.

He is worthy of being the former top scholar in the imperial examination. Even though he has lost the youthful vigor and vitality he had in the past, his straight back and the handsome face of a scholar make him look dignified even when he is kneeling.

Sang Fuqing raised his head, ignoring the gazes of others, and asked almost pleadingly: "Can you... not kill me first?"

The study was not quiet. There was the noise of the heavy rain outside, the movement of the uninvited guest climbing over the roof in the rain, and the low shouts of the hidden guards in the Li Mansion who were lured out and chased after him.

Li Huoyue Sang Fuqing raised his head, ignoring the gazes of others, and asked almost pleadingly: "Can you... not kill me first?"

The study was not quiet. There was the noise of the heavy rain pouring down outside, the unusual movement of the uninvited guest climbing over the roof in the rain, and the low shouts and pursuit of the secret guards hidden in the Li Mansion after being lured out. Each sound was unique in its own way.

Li Huoyue listened to the noise outside becoming increasingly louder, as if more than one wave of people were coming.

"She seems unconvinced, and looks like she wants to stop you from being given an official title before her..." As Li Huoyue retreated, Sang Fuqing breathed a sigh of relief and spoke slowly.

She looked at the person kneeling in front of her again. The words he said were louder than the noise outside, making her thoughts even more confused.
