"Oh, then tell me, cousin, how is he different from Nangong Chun?" Xiao Jinzhu looked at Li Liuyun with a half-smile.

Li Liuyun thought for a moment, then had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak:

"First of all, he is better looking than Nangong Chun. He is pleasing to the eye and a feast for the eyes."

"Looks are given by one's parents, what does it have to do with him? There are plenty of good-looking men in the world, not just Nangong Li."

"Secondly, he is very rich. When we got engaged, he gave me all his savings."

"What? Does my cousin think our Xiao family and the Prince of Huainan's mansion are short of money?"

Li Liuyun thought for a moment, sighed, and stopped trying to appease Xiao Jinzhu: "Cousin, I know you and my uncles are doing this for my own good, but Nangong Li is really different from Nangong Chun!"

He is a man I can entrust my life to. He saved my life when I was a child, and now we are in love. He has promised me that we will be together for life!

You signed a contract with me at the time of our engagement, stipulating that if you betray me in this life, you will leave with nothing, and all the property of the Prince of Pingnan will belong to me. You will only be with me for the rest of your life, growing old together and never leaving me!

He respects me and cares about me. Even when my appearance had not recovered, he did not look down on me and unconditionally supported all my decisions. He is the husband I chose!

He's the one I want to spend my life with, so I hope my family, like me, can accept him. I hope to receive their blessings.

Xiao Jinzhu looked at the little girl in front of her with a firm expression, stepped forward and patted Li Liuyun's head: "Cousin knows! It was cousin's fault, and I won't target him anymore!"

However, you also need to understand your cousins' position. After all, you were badly hurt by Nangong Chun before, and almost lost your life. Besides, they all share the surname Nangong, and they want to marry our Xiao family's darling daughter. It wouldn't be right if they didn't pay off some debts first!

After Xiao Jinzhu finished speaking, she looked at Nangong Li and said, "Brother-in-law, do you think what my cousin said is right?"

Nangong Li stepped forward, took Li Liuyun's hand, and nodded with a smile: "Cousin is right, but please rest assured, cousin and uncles, I will definitely take good care of Yun'er. Yun'er is more important to me than my own life, and I will marry no one but her in this life."

I will definitely not let her suffer any injustice. Also, the reason why Yun'er liked Nangong Chun before was because she mistook him for her savior. Yun'er only wanted to repay his kindness.

"Although we both share the surname Nangong, we're not necessarily family! Once Yun'er and I have resolved the threats in Southern Xinjiang, we'll settle scores and avenge every wrong done to us. All the suffering and injustices Yun'er endured will be exacted back tenfold by me! Please rest assured, cousin."

Xiao Jinzhu patted Nangong Li on the shoulder: "That's more like it, but if you want to gain our approval, you still have to work harder. Yun'er has suffered too many grievances before. For the rest of your life, you must treat her even better."

Nangong Li nodded: "Cousin, don't worry! Father and Mother also like Yun'er very much, and they will never let Yun'er complain about being wronged again!"

"You must remember what I said today. Yun'er is not without anything. She has the Xiao family as her maternal grandfather, as well as three cousins ​​and a younger brother! If you ever do anything to wrong Yun'er or cause her any suffering, we will definitely not let you off the hook!"

After speaking, Xiao Jinzhu looked at Li Liuyun and said, "Cousin, always remember that you have someone backing you up! Besides the Li family, there's the Xiao family, and you also have three cousins!" Then she turned and left.

Li Liuyun called out from behind Xiao Jinzhu, "I understand, cousin!"

After Xiao Jinzhu left, Nangong Li hugged Li Liuyun from behind: "Thank you, Seventeen! And thank God for letting us meet again in this era! It gives me the opportunity to make up for my previous regrets."

Li Liuyun turned around and smiled as he grasped Nangong Li's hand: "Actually, when I first transmigrated to this world, I cursed God. The original owner was simply a cannon fodder character!"

But out of a sense of duty, I wanted to avenge the original owner of this body and take care of her younger brother and mother. Then I met you, and when I pulled you out of the hot spring, heaven knows how excited I was. But when I took your pulse and discovered you were severely poisoned, I was extremely anxious.

Fortunately, I have spiritual spring water in my space, which can temporarily suppress your poison. After that, besides revenge, I had another goal: to quickly upgrade my space so I could cure you!

Although I didn't know at the time that you were the modern-day Nangong Li, I secretly thought that even if you weren't Nangong Li, just seeing that familiar face occasionally would be quite satisfying.

Nangong Li smiled and nodded: "Looks like I should thank my face!"

"That's right! As people say, there's no such thing as love at first sight. So-called love at first sight is actually lust at first sight!" Li Liuyun teased Nangong Li with a smile.

"Seventeen, we will leave the military camp early tomorrow morning, but with a group of more than a dozen people, we are too conspicuous. Apart from Yin San staying at the military camp to recover, I plan to split into three groups. I and Wushuang will each lead our own secret guards and hidden guards to infiltrate the Southern Border Imperial City first."

"We'll go to the Holy Palace first to meet up with Chu Yu and her son, and then we'll go to the Crown Prince's residence to see what his plans are."

"Is it really okay for An Yi to bring his own bodyguards?" Li Liuyun was genuinely a little worried about An Yi's mind.

Nangong Li nodded: "Don't worry, Anzhi is only unguarded in front of us, which is why he seems a little slow-witted. He's been by my side for so long and has never made a mistake."

An Yi's ability to maintain his position as the leader of the secret guards isn't solely due to his superior martial arts skills. During the secret guard training camp, An Yi's performance in various aspects was quite outstanding; stealth and concealment are his strengths, so there's no need to worry about him.

"Since you say it's okay, then there's definitely no problem. By the way, you stay here and keep watch for me. I'm going into the space to test Ye'er and the others' blood, and then I need to compare it with the previous test reports."

Next, after cultivating antibodies against the virus, I also need to develop an antidote and a vaccine. Now that we've brought them out, we must bring them back safely.

Nangong Li nodded: "Thank you, Seventeen, thank you for everything you've done for them! If it weren't for you, Xiao San and Yin San would probably be dead already."

“They are all your comrades-in-arms, and Xiao Jinhua is my third cousin. How could I stand by and watch him die? Even if a stranger is in danger, I would still lend a helping hand.”

"Alright, you stay here and keep watch for me. I'm going into the space to study that old lecher's virus. I must develop an antidote and a vaccine today. I never fight a battle I can't win."
