Fang Qingyou said directly that since any pretense would be futile in front of Luo Qianmo, she should stop pretending, otherwise she would only be wronging herself and gain nothing.

Luo Qianmo narrowed his eyes slightly. Everyone says that women are fickle, and now he truly understands that.

Not long ago, this little woman was very close to me, but now she is so wary of me.

The difference is truly enormous.

Her attitude towards herself now seems even more resistant than ever before?

The Cold War was indeed a cold war, a war without gunpowder but more terrifying than war itself.

"Youyou, you know I don't have any conditions for you, I just want you to do one thing."

"What is it?" Fang Qingyou stared directly into Luo Qianmo's eyes.

Doesn't doing something have conditions? You hypocritical bastard!

If she weren't in a disadvantageous position, she definitely wouldn't pay any attention to this awful man; he's just too awful.

She knew nothing, except that Luo Qianmo was an absolute scoundrel.

She was so angry that she didn't even notice that Luo Qianmo's way of addressing her suddenly changed from Miss Fang to Youyou.

"Youyou, you should know that I want you to stay away from Yi Lingyun."

Fang Qingyou never expected that Luo Qianmo's condition would be like this.

The expectation in his eyes suddenly faded, replaced by anger.

Luo Qianmo actually threatened her with information about the Ren family. Was it possible that if she agreed to his conditions, he would tell her the information, and if she didn't agree, he wouldn't say a word about the Ren family to her?

Fang Qingyou was furious. She hated being threatened, and she hated even more that Luo Qianmo used the Ren family to threaten her.

If it were someone who didn't know her, it wouldn't matter, but Luo Qianmo knew perfectly well that she cared a lot about the Ren family, yet he still used the Ren family to manipulate her.

Haha, is this what he calls "no conditions"?

If this had happened to someone else, Fang Qingyou would have been angry too, but for some reason, Luo Qianmo's actions enraged her to the extreme, as if she were about to be set ablaze with anger.

Perhaps it's because she genuinely wanted to try things out with him and was truly willing to treat him with sincerity, that the pain of being hurt is magnified many times over.

"Eighth Prince, I'm sorry, I can't meet your conditions, not in the past, not now, and not in the future!"

Fang Qingyou suddenly stood up, said coldly, and then turned to leave.

Yi Lingyun was a friend she considered a friend, and she really couldn't bear to abandon this friend just because Luo Qianmo didn't like him.

She really wanted to know news about the Ren family, but no matter what she thought, she would never betray her friend.

Yi Lingyun was the first friend who gave her warmth when she came to this strange world, a friend who was deeply devoted to her. If she were to abandon him like this, she would be unworthy of being a friend!

Even if Luo Qianmo threatened her a thousand or ten thousand times, she would never do such a treacherous thing.

A tall, slender figure blocked Fang Qingyou's path.

"Youyou, are you really going to distance yourself from me for the sake of Yi Lingyun?"

Luo Qianmo's eyes narrowed slightly, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Fang Qingyou felt her anger suddenly ignite and become uncontrollable.

"Luo Qianmo, are you really going to threaten me with my mother for the sake of Yi Lingyun?"

The man's thin lips pressed into a line. "Youyou, you know I never intended to threaten you; I just didn't want you to get close to Yi Lingyun."

"I know?" Fang Qingyou sneered. "Luo Qianmo, let me tell you clearly now, I don't know, I don't know anything about it!"

"You say you don't want to threaten me, so what are you doing now?"

"I'm asking you, if I don't agree to stay away from Yi Lingyun, are you not going to tell me anything about my mother?"

"Isn't this a threat? Luo Qianmo, then tell me, what is this?"

The relentless questioning made Luo Qianmo's expression grow increasingly somber.

"Youyou, you should understand that my purpose is simply to keep you away from Yi Lingyun."

Luo Qianmo reiterated that he has always acted by any means necessary to achieve his goals.

He knew Fang Qingyou was stubborn and wouldn't easily change her mind once she made up her mind, which was why he wanted to use the Ren family's information to force her to give in. He just didn't expect her resistance to be so strong.

The more this happened, the stronger Luo Qianmo's desire to force her became.

Could it be that she cares so much about Yi Lingyun?

Even if she doesn't give him the cold shoulder, can she really abandon the Ren family for his sake?

Thinking this, Luo Qianmo's expression grew even more unpleasant.

Fang Qingyou's expression was equally unpleasant: "Luo Qianmo, let me tell you now, I will not distance myself from Yi Lingyun, absolutely not! He will always be my friend, Fang Qingyou. If you can't stand him, or rather, if you actually can't stand me, I completely accept your breakup!"

"Is this alright?"

Fang Qingyou spoke loudly; she was completely unable to control her anger.

"Fang Qingyou, do you know what you're saying?" Luo Qianmo suddenly grabbed Fang Qingyou's arm, his strong hand seemingly about to crush her hand.

"Luo Qianmo, you can't stand me getting close to other men, and I won't abandon my friends. Since neither of us can accept the other, why stay together and hurt each other? It's better to part ways amicably!"

Fang Qingyou's tone rose a few decibels as she met Luo Qianmo's gaze without fear.

My heart was filled with anger, but also with bitterness.

She just made a friend, so why does it seem like she did something heinous?

She was indeed willing to date Luo Qianmo, but she did not want to be confined.

If Luo Qianmo is already so strict with her now, what if they really get married in the future? Will he lock her up in the mansion and not let her go out at all?

She is a person, a person with thoughts, not a caged canary!

If being with Luo Qianmo comes at the cost of sacrificing her freedom, then she would rather not have this man.

Her life should be vibrant and colorful, not just about a man and a solid cage!

Good gathering and good dispersal.

The four words echoed in Luo Qianmo's ears like a spell.

He had always known that Fang Qingyou was different from other women; many of her ideas and actions were things that women of this era did not possess.

But today I truly witnessed her difference, a difference that seems to be ingrained in her very being.

Women here rarely have such courage in matters of love, let alone with a prince from the imperial family. Even men might not have her kind of boldness...
