"That's right, that's right. From the looks of it, this Imperial Concubine An really does seem to be a favorite of the emperor."
Just as Qian Li came back to her senses, she heard these words.
Li Nian laughed mockingly, then said: "Only newbies laugh, now you can only hear old people crying. In any case, there are plenty of concubines in the palace, so it's still too early to make a decision on who would be able to last until the end. "
With just that simple sentence, Qian Li suddenly felt as if her heart had been pierced by something.
Very painful...
However, this pain was different from before.
There seemed to be something touching about the pain.
Many years later, when Qian Li finally remembered when she had changed her opinion of Li Nian, the first scene she would see would be this moment.
It was a pity that it was too late when she wanted to start cherishing this person.
"Qian Li, you actually told them that you still have to finish this round within a month?" It was at this moment that the thin man appeared. He ran over in a hurry, her tone somewhat hurried. Clearly, he had suddenly heard the news.
Hearing that, the people in the courtyard all raised their heads to look at Qian Li, who knows when it started, but the few people who had initially fought with him, actually especially liked to run towards her if there was anything wrong.
Although she did not remember anyone else besides Li Nian and the skinny guy, but it was undeniable that ever since they came to visit her, she was able to rest well at night.
Those who liked to cause trouble for her had recently restrained themselves.
"It can't be, Qian Li. This round is not like the previous two rounds, they are all true experts."
Qian Li nodded, and then said, "Time is of the essence, I'm not in the mood to waste time on these things."
Hearing this, the skinny man became even more anxious.
He said, "Qian Li, don't be so impulsive. This round, if anyone has said it before, then it would be impossible to change it once they have confirmed it. At that time, even if they really don't have any strength left, or when they are severely injured, they will still need to participate in the next round on time.
Before the thin person could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Qian Li.
"I know."
It was still the same emotionless three words. This caused everyone present to be stunned.
"Even if I know you, you still …"
But the lanky man did not finish her words, it was not because she did not want to speak anymore, but because Qian Li directly turned and entered the house, closing the door behind him, and did not even give him a chance to speak.
He touched his nose and smiled awkwardly.
"Boss, you don't need to say it, what if Qian Li gets injured?"
Li Nian raised his head, looked at the door that was tightly shut, and continued splitting the firewood in his hand.
Seeing that he had no reaction at all, the thin man was very anxious.
"Boss, are you really not worried at all?"
Li Nian swept his eyes across him, "There's nothing to worry about. Firstly, we are very clear on Qian Li's abilities, passing these tests is only a matter of time. Secondly, worry is useless, she will not listen to us."
"Although that's what I said, as a friend, I feel that I should still take care of him and remind him."
Hearing that, Li Nian's chopping of firewood suddenly stopped, his gaze was fixated on Qian Li's door, she suddenly said: "We considered Qian Li as our friend, but Qian Li treated us as strangers."
The skinny person instantly exploded. He pointed at Qian Li's door, and even her voice was somewhat unsteady: "That can't be, we've already known each other for so long, eating together, training together, and recently watching her sleep, how can she not be a friend."
However, in the end, Li Nian did not answer this question.
In the room, Qian Li leaned against the door and looked at the table.
She no longer had any friends in her life, and she did not need any. Other than people that she could take advantage of, she did not want to get to know anyone else.
The people outside did not mean to not remember their names, but it was because it was useless to remember them. As the only woman here, Gong Ming must have other plans.
Even if there were no arrangements, she would definitely find a way to get him to take her out.
Since he knew it would end like this from the start, why would he need to know about it?
Other than wasting each other's time and energy, Qian Li didn't think that it had any other meaning.
With that thought, she returned to her bed. The wounds on his body had completely healed.
It doesn't hurt if you don't touch it.
A month later, when he saw that Qian Li was standing right in front of him, Li Nian did not feel that it was strange at all.
Should I go easy on Qian Li?
However, Qian Li did not give him any time to think, "Brother Li, no need to hesitate, using your full strength is the best way to show respect to your opponent."
It was just a very ordinary sentence, and it easily dispelled the worry in Li Nian's heart.
Li Nian nodded his head, "In order to prevent yourself from saying that victory is undeserved, at this stage of the trial, you can actually set the time of your own accord."
Recently, she had been competing and didn't seem to have any extra time to wash her clothes, so she changed into another set. Thus, today, she was wearing the same set of female attire she had worn the second time she went back to the base.
It was still very fitting, but because her previous opponents were too strong, Qian Li was injured. As his fresh blood stained her clothes, he felt that it was a little dazzling.
So he still couldn't resist the urge to give Qian Li a way out.
"I have always liked to end things quickly. If I am truly defeated, that would also be my fate."
After saying that, Qian Li took the initiative to launch an attack.
In a flash, she had disappeared from his original location, the move that she had used before, but after more than two months of competition, Qian Li's martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds, and from the looks of this movement, Li Nian immediately gave up on all distracting thoughts.
Qian Li was a very good opponent, it was worth it for him to give it his all.
The two of them were very serious, and what they didn't know was that after the match started, a black figure quietly appeared in the crowd.
The current Gong Ming did not wear a hat, nor did he have a black veil covering his face.
But even if he didn't say anything and just stood there, Qian Li could still feel his different gaze.
She frowned, as she guessed that Gong Ming was here, but she did not turn to look in his direction during the entire process.
He didn't even give her a glance.
Gong Ming folded his arms across his chest, his two lips slightly parted, naturally carrying a type of something called Charm. However, after seeing his face, he would not think about anything else. This man was truly too cold.
He was so cold that others didn't dare to even dream of him existing in the slightest, as if he was born to be a person. No matter who stood by his side, the drawing style was out of place.
The surrounding noise and discussions disappeared without a trace after he appeared. Other than the sounds of Qian Li and Li Nian's battle, there was nothing else.
"Whap."
A clear and crisp sound came out from the center of the stage, only then did everyone turn to look, only to realize that Qian Li's leg had fiercely kicked Li Nian's arm.
The situation was too exciting, everyone had actually forgotten about Gong Ming who was standing at the side after a moment, and started the discussion again.
"Is Qian Li's leg crippled this time? Who doesn't know that Boss Li's arms are actually much stronger than your legs? With the loud noise just now, could it be that Qian Li is also crippled? "
"Yeah!"
Before the two of them could finish talking, someone by their side spoke out, "Something is not right, look, Qian Li actually stood up."
"Her legs are all right? Impossible! No matter how strong she was, she was still a woman. The bones in a woman's body were too weak.
"But she did stand up, and look!"
The voice of the speaker was drowned out by everyone's curious voices, they looked towards the center of the stage, only to realise that Qian Li was already walking towards Li Nian, but instead was holding onto her arm, with an ugly expression on her face.
"Can we continue?"
Qian Li's red lips slightly parted, her voice clear and melodious. Amongst such a large group of men, she sounded exceptionally clear.
"Yes." Li Jian straightened his body, but his hands were at his sides. As if it was broken …
The crowd exclaimed, "So this time, the one who lost her hand is Boss Li! Heavens, this Qian Li, is she even a woman? " This question was not answered, because everyone saw Qian Li speak up without changing her expression.
"Then continue."
Just as Qian Li came back to her senses, she heard these words.
Li Nian laughed mockingly, then said: "Only newbies laugh, now you can only hear old people crying. In any case, there are plenty of concubines in the palace, so it's still too early to make a decision on who would be able to last until the end. "
