Chapter 380 If You Let Her Down, I Won’t Spare You380 If You Let Her Down, I Won’t Spare You
Having known each other for many years, how could Huangfu Lingyao not be aware of Mu Jiangli's martial prowess?
Knowing about his deep inner strength was one thing, but from the force he displayed, Huangfu Lingyao could also sense that Mu Jiangli did not have a favorable view of the Liu family.
Could it be that he had some grudge against the Liu family?
But if there was enmity with the Liu family, why was he so concerned about Liu Shimei?
Or was it because of Liu Shimei that he harbored this resentment towards the Liu family?
From Mu Jiangli's recent behavior, it was clear that his concern for Liu Shimei came from the heart. So much so that when Huangfu Lingyao mentioned 'Because the Crown Prince likes her', it caused him to lose his composure.
He wanted to ask more, but Mu Jiangli suddenly said, "I will fulfill the promise I made to you. But, Huangfu Lingyao, if you harm her, I will not spare you!"

He did not respond, and Mu Jiangli raised his eyes coldly and said, "Also, all your messy affairs, I hope they won't affect Shiming. If she suffers any consequences, grievances, or persecution because of you, don't blame me for disregarding our many years of friendship and becoming your enemy!"
Huangfu Lingyao raised an eyebrow with a touch of playfulness and asked a crucial question, "You... don't tell me you're planning to compete with me for my future wife?"
Mu Jiangli gave him a look that said, "Are you an idiot?"
He had already packed up the chessboard, downed the cup of tea in one gulp, and stood up. "The door is right there. I won't see you off!"
Huangfu Lingyao touched his nose.
He had gone on a trip and returned empty-handed, but he now had even more questions than before!
Back in the room, Liu Shimei had already gotten up and was standing by the door, asking the servant, "Did you see the young man who came with me?"
After a moment's thought, she added, "My fiance, King Dun Yu."
Hearing her words and seeing her anxious search, Huangfu Lingyao was overwhelmed with a sense of satisfaction.
The servant was about to answer when he rushed over, as warm and enthusiastic as ever, saying, "Wife, you're awake!"
His tone was cheerful, and his face carried a brilliant smile. He immediately took Liu Shimei's hand, not waiting for her response, and asked, "Did you sleep well? I saw you were sleeping so soundly, I got a little bored, so I went out to play. I didn't expect you to wake up so quickly!"
Seeing him, Liu Shimei felt relieved and nodded towards the servant, saying, "Now that you're back, everything is fine. Thank you."
Huangfu Lingyao had noticed long ago that Liu Shimei was very humble and courteous in her dealings with people. Despite her assertiveness when dealing with scoundrels, she had a very gentle heart.
Even when dealing with servants, she showed them ample respect. It was a kind of beauty that radiated from the depths of her soul.
As he looked down at her beautiful face, he could not help but think to himself, 'Wife is truly amazing. Such a perfect girl, I must hold onto her tightly!'
Although his visit to Mu Jiangli hadn't provided all the answers he needed, it hadn't been entirely useless either.
At the very least, it confirmed that Old Mu was not his rival in love, right?

Well, it would not be good for their friendship!
While he was gazing at her, she raised her head and said, "Why were you wandering around alone? This isn't our territory, and it's not the familiar Imperial Capital. What if you got lost?"
Her tone carried a touch of reproach.
Thinking back to the last time he had gotten lost in the Outer City's Four Horses Alley, he smiled and said, "No worries! Even if I get lost, I can't get out of this estate. There are walls outside just like air, you can't get out!"
"Oh," Liu Shimei understood. It must be some kind of formation, similar to the legendary 'barrier' in cultivation stories. It could indeed keep energetic dogs like him from running around.
Since she didn't understand much about it and didn't want to ask too many questions, she simply said, "Let's go find Ninth Brother and the others, and then we can go back."
"Sounds good!" After running around and coming back, he had turned into a well-behaved Husky!
On the way back to the Imperial Capital, Liang Yi still wore a troubled expression.
