Chapter 558 Selling My Feelings
Yan Li: ...
I didn’t expect Xiaoxiao is such a dramatic actress!
Wu Xiaoxiao obviously saw Yan Li's teasing look, so she rolled her eyes at Yan Li behind Xiushan's back.
You have no conscience. You don’t even know who I’m doing this for?
"Miss Wu, what exactly did they do?" Palace Master Xiu looked at Wu Xiaoxiao.
"As soon as they rushed into my tent, they wanted to take Li Yan and the others away." Wu Xiaoxiao said.
Palace Master Xiu: ...
Is not this nonsensical?
I sent them to borrow people, so naturally they have to take the people away.
"Palace Master, I think we are wronged." The disciple who was beaten by Yan Li felt so wronged.
"Miss Wu, are you kidding? This Palace Master sent them to borrow people, so naturally they have to take the people away." Palace Master Xiu said coldly.
"You also said it was a loan. Since it was borrowed with my consent, Li Yan and the others went with you, that was a loan. When they came, they took people away without saying a word. That was robbery, not a loan." Wu Xiaoxiao wiped the tears from her face and spoke.
Palace Master Xiu was stunned when he heard this!
I really didn't expect that there would be someone in Zi Han Palace who dared to argue with me about borrowing and robbing.
"Besides, as the palace master, you must have a lot of people available to you, but I am a weak woman and only have Li Yan and three others by my side. Now you have taken them away. What do I have left?" Wu Xiaoxiao asked in a weak tone.
"This Palace Master just wants them to help me do this. They will naturally come back to you after the task is done." Palace Master Xiu felt a nameless anger burning in his heart.
"They have never left me. What if I died during the time they were away?" Wu Xiaoxiao said and looked at Palace Master Xiu.
"How is that possible?" Palace Master Xiu asked conditionally.
"I understand. Palace Master Xiu, do you not want me to be with the Young Master? If that's the case, I can leave. Although the Young Master is a very good person, I'm not the kind of person who would go along with you..." Wu Xiaoxiao began to sob after she finished speaking.
"Xiaoxiao, don't worry, I won't let you leave." Xiushan, who was standing by, began to cooperate with her.
"Young Master, I think I'd better leave. Otherwise, not only will I suffer, but Li Yan and the others will also be implicated by me." Wu Xiaoxiao said while wiping her tears.
Palace Master Xiu: ...
What's happening here?
I just wanted to take the three people around her away to test them.
How did it become that I was forcing her to die in order to break up the couple?
"Li Yan and the other three are Xiaoxiao's only support. You have so many people you can use, why do you have to take them away?" Xiu Shan looked at Palace Master Xiu coldly.
"Forget it, let her keep this person. I won't lend her to you." Upon seeing this, Palace Master Xiu angrily waved his sleeves and left.
After Palace Master Xiu left, Yan Li and the others returned to the tent.
"Are you thirsty? Have a glass of water." Yan Li poured a glass of water for Wu Xiaoxiao with a smile.
"Huh..." Wu Xiaoxiao took the water and drank it all in one breath before she let out a long breath.
"Are you afraid?" Xiushan looked at her with amusement.
"Afraid." Wu Xiaoxiao nodded very honestly.
"If you're afraid, why do you do this?" Xiu Shan looked at her in confusion.
"I can't let Li Yan and the others be in danger." Wu Xiaoxiao said.
"Thank you for your hard work." Yan Li patted her shoulder with emotion when she heard that.
Maybe Wu Xiaoxiao is not very courageous, maybe Wu Xiaoxiao is not strong, maybe Wu Xiaoxiao's status is not high.
But she has been trying her best to protect herself!
"Why are you being polite? We are friends, aren't we?" Wu Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Li with a smile.
"Yes, we are friends." Yan Li smiled and held her hand.
After Yan Li finished speaking, he set up a barrier around Wu Xiaoxiao's tent and led everyone into the space.
"Where is this? It's so beautiful." As soon as she entered the space, Wu Xiaoxiao was immediately attracted by the beautiful scenery in the space.
"This is my space." Yan Li said with a smile.
Although this is just a secret space ring that I took out casually, it is also my own space.
"Mom." Xiu Shan was stunned for a moment and then saw Dugu Ying sitting there and looking at him with a smile.
"Shan'er, although you have grown a lot taller, mother can still recognize you at first sight." Dugu Ying stood up and hugged Xiushan.
"Mom, your injury..." Xiushan let her go and asked worriedly.
"Under Li'er's care, I have almost recovered." Dugu Ying said with a smile.
"Li'er?" Xiushan was very surprised at the way his mother addressed Yan Li.
"My name is Yan Li, and this is my fiancé Xiao Yu and my elder brother Xiao Yi." Yan Li solemnly reintroduced them.
"I knew you must be using aliases, but I didn't expect that you, Li'er, were engaged." Wu Xiaoxiao on the side was very shocked.
"What's so strange about getting engaged? You can do it too." Yan Li said, his eyes wandering between her and Xiu Shan.
Dugu Ying, who was standing by, saw Yan Li's gaze and her eyes lit up when she looked at Wu Xiaoxiao.
"What is this girl's name?" Dugu Ying asked.
"In response to Madam Xiu, my name is Wu Xiaoxiao." Wu Xiaoxiao bowed and replied.
"Aunt Ying, Xiaoxiao was snatched back by Young Master Xiu." Yan Li leaned close to Dugu Ying's ear and said.
In fact, the sound was so loud that everyone present heard it.
"Snatched her back? Wouldn't that make her my daughter-in-law?" Dugu Ying said immediately after hearing that.
"Mrs. Xiu misunderstood. I..."
"It's normal for girls to be a little shy. Xiaoxiao, come here and show yourself to me."
Wu Xiaoxiao was about to explain something when Dugu Ying pulled her over. She looked at Wu Xiaoxiao with great satisfaction.
Wu Xiaoxiao looked towards Xiushan who was standing beside her for help, but Xiushan just smiled back.
When Xiushan smiled, Wu Xiaoxiao felt her heart was in turmoil.
Could it be that he really likes me?
"Xiaoxiao, I am really pleased with you when I bring you back to Zihan Palace. But if you still miss that First Young Master..."
"How could I still be thinking about that unfaithful man..."
Before Xiushan finished speaking, Wu Xiaoxiao hurried to explain.
"That's great. I'll take you back to the Dugu family and hold a wedding for you." Dugu Ying's eyes were filled with excitement.
"This...I..." Wu Xiaoxiao really wanted to say that this was not what she meant.
"Xiaoxiao, don't you like me?" Xiushan asked Wu Xiaoxiao as he approached her.
Xiushan’s approach made Wu Xiaoxiao’s heart skip a beat.
"No, no..." Wu Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say.
"That's good. Our engagement is now settled." Xiushan's lips curled up with a hint of success.
"This..." Until the two of them signed the marriage contract, Wu Xiaoxiao felt that her whole head was confused.
"Congratulations, congratulations." Yan Li couldn't help but admire Xiu Shan's initiative.
"Li'er, why do I feel like I've sold myself out?" Wu Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Li.
"You, are you blinded by happiness? Let me tell you, Xiushan is a thousand times better than that so-called First Young Master." Hearing this, Yan Li looked at her with a helpless look.
