C72 (1/2)

After Mo Lianjin heard this, a cold light suddenly surfaced between his brows.

”You know him?”

Su Li stopped talking, and the corner of his mouth twitched a few times.

What a pig's brain!

Even though she knew that this man didn't want her to know too much, she still revealed her true feelings.

How does this lie round now?

”Su Li, how do you know him?” Mo Lianjin suddenly raised his hand and grabbed her lower jaw, forcing her to raise her head and meet his gaze.

His strength was not great, but there was something about him that made her unable to move.

His pair of black eyes were shockingly cold, and a trace of killing intent was faintly contained within them.

Su Li swallowed his saliva. He could clearly feel a chill start to rise from the bottom of his feet.

”Su Li...”

”In the past, when my mother was still alive, I was not as domineering as I am now. He was just a beggar at the foot of the wall. I gave him a thin piece of jade, but never thought that he would place it in his hair.”

”Really?”

Su Li nodded, ”Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, just look at that thin piece of jade with the word ”Li” carved at the back. ”

Mo Lianjin squinted his eyes and looked at Su Li.

For a moment, the entire room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

Only when he let go did she realize that her back was covered in cold sweat. She took a step back, not daring to get too close to him.

When his aura was released, it was so terrifying!

Mo Lianjin took off the crown of the youth's hair and dug out the thin jade. After confirming that Su Li was not lying, he put the piece of jade back into his sleeve without batting an eyelid.

He tilted his head to look at her, but all he saw was her reddened lower jaw.

Mo Lianjin unconsciously raised his hand once again, and brushed towards the place where she was blushing. ”This king made a move just now, you don't know how to dodge?”

Su Li slapped his hand away speechlessly, ”Then we can still avoid them!”

Mo Lianjin was silenced by her, and spoke meaningfully after a long while, ”Su Li, you better not lie to me.”

”I don't dare.” Su Li indifferently replied, and added, ”However, I want to ask you to do me a favor. In the future, don't drag me into your secrets, I really cherish my life.”

Mo Lianjin opened his mouth, but for the first time in his life, he felt that something was stuck in his throat, yet he could not say a single word.

Su Li knocked him away and once again went to inspect the youth's situation.

After a long while, she finally straightened up, ”I wonder if Fifth Prince wants him to die or live?”

His tone was completely unfamiliar. The tacit understanding and comrade-in-arms that the two of them had gotten together in the past had completely vanished without a trace!

Mo Lianjin's eyes dimmed for a moment, ”Yes.”

If he didn't have the password to wake up from the dream, he would only be able to stay like this for the rest of his life. If the Fifth Prince wants him to live, then find someone to take care of him, feed him, and ensure that he won't starve to death!

”You can't wake him up?”

”Fifth Prince, I will only examine a corpse, you think too highly of me.”

”But in the capital, you are the only one who knows what hypnosis is.”

Su Li pursed her lips, she stayed silent for a few seconds, then said: ”Knowing doesn't mean that I know how to cure him, I am powerless against him.”

Mo Lianjin had no choice but to take Su Li and leave via the same route.

The two of them walked back into the busy city, and Su Li walked towards the Yi Village without saying a word.

Mo Lianjin stood in place, and the word of apology that was about to leave his mouth was once again swallowed!

Just as Su Li approached the Yi Village, he saw Song Lai standing at the doorway, as if he was waiting for her.

The moment he saw her, his taut face relaxed.
