The concubine's favorite? Break off the engagement and marry another prince, please respect you

Chapter 46

There was a slight tremor in Lu Ziyan's voice that he himself could not even feel.

It seems like panic, and also like collapse.

His dark eyes stared at her intently, trying to find some clues on her face.

At least it proves that what she said just now was done on purpose to anger him.

But Xie Wan Ning's gaze passed over him and looked at the man standing at the entrance of the cave, her eyes full of anticipation.

…She was expecting another man to rescue her.

This realization made Lu Ziyan's eyes suddenly filled with hostility, as if there was a silent anger burning in them.

Xie Wan Ning felt the hand holding her neck suddenly tightened. She frowned in pain, "Let me go!"

"She told you to let go, didn't you hear me?" The man at the door's usually clear voice was tinged with a hint of lowness.

"Get lost!" Lu Ziyan turned around suddenly, his dark eyes seemed to be filled with a storm, "It is not the turn of others to meddle in our affairs."

Pei Yuqing pursed her lips, her eyes fell on the girl who was pressed into the corner, and said, "I have no right to interfere in her affairs."

As soon as he finished speaking, two secret guards suddenly appeared, swords drawn.

The cave was small and there was no room for any attack. Xie Wan Ning was still struggling desperately, but the next moment, Lu Ziyan grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.

He was very strong, and Xie Wan Ning's nose hit his chest unexpectedly, causing her to cry out in pain.

Before he could react, he was carried into the corner again.

With her chin lifted up, Lu Ziyan's eyes fell on her straight nose. He looked at it carefully, then lowered his head and kissed her, his voice slightly apologetic: "Did I hurt you?"

Without caring about ruining her makeup, Xie Wan Ning raised her hand and wiped her nose fiercely, then pushed him hard on the shoulder.

Unexpectedly, this time she pushed him further away. She took two steps back towards the cave entrance and said with disgust, "Why did you do this to me?"

Seeing that the girl ran to another man as soon as he let go, Lu Ziyan looked gloomy.

His jaw was clenched, trying to suppress his anger, and he chuckled: "What did I do to you?"

"Lu Ziyan, I have been engaged to you since I was ten years old. In the past six years, I have never done anything to let you down. Even when I broke off the engagement, I wanted to part ways amicably and leave both of us with dignity."

Xie Wan Ning rubbed her wrist which was hurt by being held, and looked at him with cold anger in her eyes: "But you relied on your strength today to kidnap me here and force me. Don't you feel ashamed of yourself?"

The words "forced" caused the two men present to change their expressions.

Pei Yuqing's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and he looked at her sideways. His lips opened subconsciously, but he finally held back the question that was on his lips and did not interrupt the confrontation between the two.

Lu Ziyan leaned against the stone wall and smiled. Not to disappoint his usual stern appearance, his smile was somewhat frivolous. "How can this be shameful? I only regret not getting close to you earlier."

His eyes passed over the gloomy Pei Yuqing and fell on Xie Wan Ning's face. He pulled the corners of his lips slightly and said word by word: "If I had known that my Wan Wan tasted so good, I would never have endured it for so long."

How patient he was, he couldn't bear to touch her even with a finger, and he endured it until now she doesn't want him anymore and runs off to meet an old man secretly!
Lu Ziyan only felt that his back teeth were itching.

...He was about to lose control of the girl who loved him so much.

He suddenly closed his eyes and tried to calm down.

Xie Wan Ning didn't understand his mixed emotions of pain and anger at all, but was trembling with anger at his shameless words. How could she not see that this man had become a bit of a gangster!
His body was shaking with anger, and Pei Yuqing, who had been silent beside him, held his arm. He said softly, "Anger hurts the liver. You already have a strong liver fire, so don't get angry anymore."

"Be good, don't let other people's mistakes affect your health."

His voice was calm and soothing.

Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips slightly, feeling the anger in her heart gradually subside. She held him with her backhand and drew energy from the warmth he transmitted.

Looking at them standing hand in hand, Lu Ziyan narrowed his eyes slightly and clenched his fists. Just as he was about to attack, he heard the cruel girl say, "The more arrogant you are, the more I will be glad of my decision."

She said she was glad she made the decision.

Lu Ziyan, who originally thought that nothing could hit him hard, suddenly turned pale.

"Although Lu Ziyan was cold and ruthless before, in my eyes, he was at least a hero who defended his country," Xie Wan Ning paused and said, "not the hooligan who relies on his strength to bully a weak woman now."

"If you still care about the friendship we had in the past, don't appear in front of me again."

"You said so much just for this sentence, right?" Lu Ziyan suddenly opened his eyes and gave her a smile full of sarcasm: "Wanwan, do you think I'm a fool who can be dismissed with a few words?"

As he spoke, he strode forward with an imposing manner, frightening Xie Wan Ning so much that she took a step back. The man next to her held her arm and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'll protect you."

He looked at Lu Ziyan who was stopped by the secret guards and said calmly, "It is not gentlemanly to pester a girl. Your words and deeds are inappropriate, so please go back. You are not welcome in the Duke of Pei's Mansion."

"Who do you think you are? How can you even dream of her?" Lu Ziyan's face twisted instantly, he could no longer control himself, and threw a punch at him with murderous intent, but was stopped by two secret guards.

So, on this not-so-remote garden path, Lu Ziyan actually started fighting with the two secret guards.

There were already quite a few guests today, and soon someone noticed the commotion here and was watching from afar.

Xie Wan Ning looked extremely ugly.

The engagement was finally cancelled, and the rumors about her in the capital had gradually faded in the past few days. Now, in front of so many people, this "romantic incident" of two men fighting for one woman happened.

The rumors will only get louder than before.

She wasn't afraid of damaging her reputation and having difficulty getting married, but she was annoyed that she wouldn't be able to go out and play for a long time.

Pei Yuqing glanced at her with concern: "Are you okay? He..."

Xie Wan Ning shook her head slowly, her eyes fixed on the unarmed Lu Ziyan, her expression solemn.

She had only seen him hunting with a bow, and this was the first time she saw him fighting with someone.

Since they were chosen by Pei Yuqing as personal bodyguards, the two secret guards must have strong martial arts skills, but they are still no match for him.

Lu Ziyan didn't suffer any loss in the one-on-two fight and was on the verge of winning.

Fortunately, this is the residence of Duke Pei, and the thing we have the most is guards.

However, it was Ming Jian who appeared faster than the guards.

He appeared out of nowhere, walked quickly to Lu Ziyan, and whispered something.

Lu Ziyan kicked the guard who was approaching him and finally stopped his attack.
