Chapter 111 Lili, please don’t be so distant from me
Jiang Li immediately turned her head to look at the door, then pushed the man down on the bed with a nervous look on her face.
"Hurry! Lie down quickly and don't let yourself be exposed!"
After walking through the gates of hell, the culprit must pay the price.
Li Jinyuan took a deep breath, and the look in his eyes as he looked at Jiang Li was still so hot that it was difficult to restrain.
"Don't look at me, pretend to be weak."
The man was very obedient, with his long eyelashes half-closed to hide the emotions surging in his eyes.
His overly pale face made him look a little weak, which was exactly the effect Jiang Li wanted to achieve.
The next second, Li Junlin, led by Qi Yu, slowly walked into the room.
Jiang Li used all the acting skills she had learned in her previous life. Her almond-shaped eyes were moist and tears slowly flowed down her cheeks. She looked broken.
"Why is my royal brother so weak?"
Li Junlin pretended to be anxious and walked forward quickly. After seeing the "weak-breathing" person on the bed, he was still stunned for a moment in disbelief.
Was Li Jinyuan really... eliminated by him just like that?
Having fought with him half-openly and half-covertly for so many years, I didn't expect that this day would come so suddenly. Besides being pleasantly surprised, I also felt a bit of an indescribable panic.
Jiang Li slowly stood up with the help of the bed, her steps unsteady. She raised her arm and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.
"Your Highness, I have met you."
Seeing the girl so heartbroken, Li Junlin pursed his lips, feeling a little sad in his heart.
Did she care so much about Li Jinyuan's life or death? She clearly wanted to marry me...
For some reason, he only approached Jiang Li because of the Jiang family behind her. As for the fact that his father arranged her marriage to Li Jinyuan, he felt a little annoyed but had no other feelings.
But now, seeing how dazzling she was when she was with Li Jinyuan, how clever and brave she was when she accompanied him to Changzhou to win people's hearts, and how innocent she was when she acted coquettishly towards him, these were things he had never seen before...
Every time I appear in the same occasion with her, my eyes always fall on her uncontrollably.
He could clearly feel that he wanted her.
Growing up, he would never compromise on what he wanted, and he would get it no matter what means he used.
Naturally, Jiang Li wouldn't be surprised this time...
Li Junlin looked at Jiang Li, restrained the sharpness in his eyes, and reached out his hand to support her.
"Lili, get up quickly. If you're not feeling well, don't bow. Go over there and rest."
The girl calmly avoided his extended hand with a distant look on her face.
If the jealous person lying on the bed saw this, he would probably be so angry that he would "come back to life" and couldn't continue the performance.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. However, Your Highness is so weak right now, and I am really worried..."
Jiang Li didn't know whether Li Junlin had discovered that she was the one who eavesdropped that day, so she couldn't figure out how much she feared him.
In that case, she might as well act a little more distant, which would also reduce the possibility of being exposed.
Li Junlin's hand, which was frozen in mid-air, moved, then he chuckled and retracted it.
"Have you invited the imperial physician? My brother is so ill now, we can't be afraid to see a doctor."
"No matter how strong your body is, you can't overcome every disease."
As the man spoke, he had already come to the bed. Meeting Li Jinyuan's weak eyes, the man's dark eyes deepened, and his heart felt at ease for a moment.
It looked like the scorpion's tail venom had completely taken effect.
But he still couldn't completely let down his guard.
"Thank you for your concern, my royal brother... Qi Yu has already examined me. Ahem! I just caught a cold, it's a bit serious, I'll be fine after two days of rest."
"Cough cough..."
Jiang Li stood behind Li Junlin, watching the man's superb acting skills on the bed, she couldn't help but applaud in her heart.
What a pity! He has such a good potential to be an actor, and he also has a good-looking face. He will definitely become famous in the entertainment industry!
"Eh!"
Li Junlin frowned, his tone full of disapproval.
"Even if Qi Yu knows some medical skills, how can he compare to the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital?"
"I will send someone to invite him right away. My brother's illness cannot be delayed any longer!"
Seeing him turning around and about to call for help, Li Jinyuan panicked. He didn't care about his weak body and raised his voice, as if he was very afraid that someone would diagnose his illness.
"My Royal Brother, please wait... Don't bother. It's just a cold. The doctors in the Imperial Hospital still have to serve the ladies in the harem. If we delay greeting them, it will be bad."
The man's repeated evasions seemed truly abnormal.
Li Junlin narrowed his eyes, his thin lips curling up in a barely perceptible arc.
It seems that Li Jinyuan has really fallen into his hands this time...
"Since that's the case, I won't force you. My royal brother, please take care of your health."
The moment the man turned around, his deep eyes looked at Jiang Li who was standing behind him.
The frightened girl quickly restrained her expression and lowered her head.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Li Junlin didn't move, but continued to stare at her.
"Please trouble Lili to escort me out of the palace. There is something I want to talk to you about."
Now not only Jiang Lizhen was stunned, even Li Jinyuan who was lying on the bed couldn't help but look at her coldly.
"it is good……"
Even though she felt uneasy, Jiang Li didn't want to arouse his suspicion.
The girl followed Li Junlin's footsteps and slowly walked out of Linfeng Palace.
The man remained silent along the way, which made Jiang Li's uneasiness reach its peak.
Seeing that she had reached the gate, she finally couldn't bear it any longer.
Her delicate little face was a little solemn, and she called out to stop Li Junlin.
"My Lord, what do you want to say to me?"
Li Junlin stopped, his hands hanging behind his back, and he slowly turned around.
"Does Lili have to be so distant from me..."
The man's gaze towards her was like a deep pool, and Jiang Li could not detect any of his emotions.
The fair little hands were clenched into fists, but were completely blocked by the wide skirt.
"Your Majesty...what does this mean?"
The royal family attaches great importance to etiquette, and Jiang Li doesn't think she did anything wrong.
Moreover, although the original owner was very fond of him, he did not like her and could even be considered to be annoyed with her.
It's just that he has never shown his deep scheming...
But now he actually asked her to be less distant from him. It was really funny...
"Didn't Lili like to call me Brother Rin the most before? You can call me that now."
Jiang Li's breath was caught, and then goose bumps began to spread.
"This... is really not polite."
Jiang Li clenched her teeth. The original owner had such a dull personality, but she was unexpectedly bold with Li Junlin...
The man stared at the girl's lowered head, and the dull unhappiness in his heart spread again.
He didn't like her distant attitude towards him...
