Chapter 1455 Can’t stand it any longer

Lianyi rolled her eyes in her heart after hearing this. She had seen all kinds of handsome men, and they were all the kind that looked eternally young. She didn't want to see a man grow old, so she just laughed and changed the subject.

After everyone arrived at Houtou Mountain by car, everyone started climbing to the top of the mountain, and basically there were male and female groups. It seemed that everyone knew the purpose of this team building.

Lianyi didn't mean that, so she pulled Hui Wenwen to climb the mountain together. Hui Wenwen said with a frown on her face:
"Lianyi, if you don't want to find a boyfriend in our company, don't ruin my chance of romance!"

"Wenwen, believe me, those science and engineering guys in the network department are not suitable for you. You deserve better. Don't waste your time. Come and work hard with me!"

After Lianyi finished speaking, she pulled Hui Wenwen and quickened their pace toward the top of the mountain.

When Hui Wenwen was about to die, the two finally climbed to the top of the mountain. There was a Taoist temple here, and it seemed that the incense was still very popular.

After Hui Wenwen caught her breath, the two drank a sip of water and entered the Taoist temple.

Lianyi discovered that the deity enshrined here was Yue Lao, and most people who came here to worship were seeking marriage.

Hui Wenwen pulled Lianyi to kneel down and burn incense devoutly, and then, with Lianyi's teasing eyes, pulled her to ask for divination, and then asked someone to interpret the divination.

Lianyi also passively drew a lot, and then accompanied Hui Wenwen to interpret the lot. The old Taoist priest gave her a folded talisman paper, saying that it could help her ward off the peach blossom evil, and Hui Wenwen got a talisman for marriage. The two then left the Yue Lao Temple to meet up with everyone.

Lianyi casually threw the talisman into her backpack, while Hui Wenwen solemnly put it into the compartment of her wallet and also criticized Lianyi's behavior.

"Lianyi, I heard that this place is very spiritual. You can't handle the talisman given by the Taoist priest so casually. You have to carry it close to you. What if you bump into something?"

Lian Yi said in surprise:
"Wenwen, didn't I realize you're so superstitious?"

"Hey! You don't understand. It's better to believe in these things than to believe they don't exist. You still have to have a sense of awe."

Hui Wenwen said mysteriously.

Lianyi did not comment. Under Hui Wenwen's gaze, she put the talisman into her wallet. Only then did the other party reveal an expression of teachable character.

The team building activity that day was very successful. It was already 10 o'clock in the evening when it ended. The company arranged a car to take everyone back to the city. As for whether there would be a second activity, the organizer did not get involved.

Lianyi parted ways with everyone, using the excuse that she had to go back to take Chinese medicine, and did not participate in the second event.

That night, after Lianyi fell asleep, she had a dream she hadn't had in a long time.

The man riding a tall black horse appeared in front of Lianyi again. This time, the opponent was fighting on the battlefield, and he was outnumbered by a hundred.

Lianyi was sitting in a red sedan at this time. She looked down and found herself wearing a red wedding dress. She opened the curtain of the sedan and saw many followers standing beside her. These people had numb and dazed expressions and just surrounded her, as if to prevent her from escaping.

After the man chopped off the last head, he rode his horse to Lianyi's sedan chair and said gently:

"Princess, please come with me! I won't let you go to marry! Those rude foreigners are not worthy of having a beautiful you."

Lianyi rolled her eyes through the veil, then sighed and said:
"The one who is engaged becomes a wife, the one who escapes becomes a concubine! Why would I leave my wife and go away with you? You should know that I am not marrying for someone, but for the stability of our Great Chu border. As long as we can buy ten years of peace, Great Chu can counterattack the Qiang Wolf Tribe, and my mission will be accomplished."

The man outside the sedan obviously didn't expect Lianyi to say that. He was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't know how to respond.

Lianyi snorted in her heart. Although this dream was not made up by her, the other party could not deny her reasons for refuting it, otherwise she would not be able to fool her at all. The other party could only go along with her words.

After a long while, the man patted the irritable black horse under him, and then he said, "Princess, I know that you have the Great Chu in your heart, but this responsibility is too heavy for a woman like you to bear. Now you still have a chance to regret it. I will protect you and let you live freely."

Lian Yi was silent for longer than the other party, giving the other party the illusion that she was considering it. After five minutes, she said:
"I am a princess of the Great Chu. I have to pay a corresponding price for every honor I have enjoyed. I lived a life of luxury in the first half of my life, and this time I am getting married with a beautiful wedding dress. I have no intention of living in hiding for the rest of my life. This is my dignity as a princess of the royal family, and it is also my last bit of dignity."

"Princess, you."

The other party obviously didn't expect that Lianyi would finally reject his proposal, and he became a little anxious, while the black horse under him snorted and wandered beside the sedan chair.

Lianyi raised her hand to open the curtain of the sedan chair, slowly pulled off the red veil, and said to the man whose face could not be seen clearly outside the sedan chair:

"General, tell me your name and I will remember your kindness."

"My name is not worth mentioning, Princess, there is no need to know it."

The man bowed his head and said.

"You don't want me to know, or you don't dare to let me know?"

Lianyi curled her lips into a smile, and when the other party suddenly raised his head, the arrow in her sleeve shot out and hit the other party directly in the middle of the eyebrows.

The next second, the other party fell off his horse. The scene around Lianyi changed and shattered rapidly. She opened her eyes abruptly, and after her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she slowly sat up, turned on the bedside lamp, and took out the talisman from her bag.

The talisman was already half black, so Lianyi threw it directly into the toilet, pressed the flush button, and then lay down to sleep again.

In a rental house in the same residential area of ​​Lianyi, a man opened his eyes in sweat. His eyes were bloodshot and his face was pale. Just as he was about to sit up, he felt dizzy and fell back on the bed.

"Damn, how could this happen!"

Then he felt a sharp pain like a needle stabbing in his forehead, which prevented him from falling asleep for the rest of the night. He couldn't even get up to pour himself a glass of water.

Lianyi slept well in the second half of the night. After getting up, she still walked to work. On the way, she greeted her colleagues as usual. When she was taking the elevator, she met Feng Qing from the same department.

Lianyi raised her eyebrows and asked with concern:

"Feng Qing, why do you look so bad?"

Feng Qing glanced at Lianyi, and the flash of hatred in his eyes was accurately captured by Lianyi.

Her eyes turned, and she stood beside the other person inadvertently, saying in a fuss:

"Feng Qing, why are you leaning to one side?"

Her voice attracted the attention of his colleagues in the elevator. Feng Qing turned his head suddenly and was about to retort, but he felt dizzy and actually fell down.

Before he fainted, he happened to see Lianyi pressing his head with a concerned look on her face.

Lianyi took advantage of the confusion to feel Feng Qing's pulse. His symptoms were obviously the result of nerve damage. She had reason to suspect that he was the one who pulled her into her dream yesterday, and that the medium he used was the talisman.

Lianyi felt that things were becoming more and more interesting, but she didn't know what roles Hui Wenwen and Feng Qing played in it.

See you tomorrow, babies~
