His scorching breath sprayed on Bai Xianyu’s ear. She did not need to look to know that her ear was red. She bit her lower lip. “You eavesdropped on our conversation?”

Xie Xingyun did not answer or let go of her. It had only been a few days. Why did he miss her so much?

It had been a long time since he had smelled the scent of the Chinese rose on her.

It was as if a long lifetime had passed.

He missed her till his heart ached.

Bai Xianyu felt that the hand on her waist was about to tighten. Her grip on the branch of peach blossoms paused. In the next second, her embroidered shoe ruthlessly stepped on Xie Xingyun’s gold-and-black woven boots.

He did not even frown, but after a few seconds, he let go of her.

However, Bai Xianyu was not totally free. The man’s iron arms were on both sides of her body, imprisoning her in the small space between his chest and the railing. The two of them were so close that not even a fist could be put in.

Bai Xianyu did not know why Xie Xingyun appeared in front of her again. She raised her head to look at him. “Young Marquis, why are you going back on your word? Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t appear in front of me again?”

Xie Xingyun lowered his eyes. “Yes, I didn’t keep my word.”

Bai Xianyu frowned and wanted to speak, but the man held her hand. “Why didn’t you throw away the flowers he gave you?”

“Why should 1 throw them away? It’s a token of his affection.”

She was deliberately exasperating him.

“What about me?” Xie Xingyun said, “Isn’t the painting 1 gave you a token of my affection?”

Bai Xianyu’s gaze flickered. When she thought of the painting that she had torn to shreds, she felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

“My actions that day were indeed a little overboard, but that was because you forced me to accept it.”

Xie Xingyun stared at Bai Xianyu’s face. Under the flickering candlelight, her cheeks were slightly red, and her beautiful face looked even more beautiful under the moonlight.

He took out a Glacier Rose out of nowhere. “…If I don’t force you now, would you accept mine?”

Bai Xianyu almost thought that the man in front of her was not Xie Xingyun.

Her eyes were sizing him up with a tinge of doubt. There were all kinds of emotions, but a lack of adoration and shyness.

Unknowingly, the love in these familiar eyes had disappeared without him noticing.

Xie Xingyun’s heart tightened and he was at a loss.

The next moment, he threw his flower and the branch in the girl’s hand into the river.

Bai Xianyu had wanted to stop him, but the man held her in his arms. He buried his head in her nape, and his tone was a little unsteady.

“If you don’t want mine, then you can’t have theirs either.”

Bai Xianyu’s chin rested against Xie Xingyun’s shoulder, her hands propped up on the man’s chest. Hearing this, she pushed down hard. “Why? 1 can accept the flowers from anyone 1 want.”

Xie Xingyun looked up. “How naughty.”

Bai Xianyu struggled for a while and decided to save her strength. Compared to Xie Xingyun’s strength, she was like an ant trying to shake a big tree.

After half an hour, Xie Xingyun finally made a move.

He said, “Come with me to release the river lamps.”

Bai Xianyu wanted to refuse, but he continued, “Accompany me to complete three things. After that, I won’t take the initiative to look for you again.”

Bai Xianyu said, “I don’t believe you.”

Xie Xingyun seemed to have expected her answer and took out a token from his sleeve.

Bai Xianyu took a look and exclaimed, “Death-Exemption Token?”

Legend had it that the Prince of Nanzhao had outstanding military achievements. When he received his fief, he was even given a Death-Exemption Token.

There were only a handful of people who could possess the Death-Exemption Token, and most of them were relatives of the royal family.

Xie Xingyun took a step back and placed the Death-Exemption Token in Bai

Xianyu’s hand. “If 1 breach my promise, this is yours..”
