Xie Jingrui didn't have time to think about it, and jumped down as well. He reached out and held Liu Yueru in his arms, and said in a hoarse and low voice in her ear: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Xie Jingrui passed through the air and used himself as a cushion to face downwards.

Liu Yueru smelled the familiar ambergris on Xie Jingrui and suddenly opened her eyes.

The man was staring at her, his eyes were deep and heavy, and full of affection.

Liu Yueru couldn't hold it in any longer. With red eyes, she said to Xie Jingrui, "You fool, if we all die, what will happen to the child?"

Xie Jingrui: “….”

Xie Jingrui calmed down, took a deep breath, looked at Liu Yueru and asked patiently, "If we can still survive, can you give me a chance?"

"Answer me." Xie Jingrui asked hurriedly, looking at the deep pool behind him.

Liu Yueru pursed her lips tightly, and she reached out and hugged Xie Jingrui's back. This was her answer to him; "Okay."

Xie Jingrui clenched his hands tighter, and the corners of his lips lifted slightly.

He raised one hand and launched the wire toward the thick tree halfway up the cliff.

The two men's bodies were clearly stopped at a distance of half a meter from the deep pool.

Liu Yueru's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her clear eyes, looking at the current situation of the two people in confusion.

Before she came to her senses, a deep voice rang in Liu Yueru's ears. The man asked with difficulty, "Does what you said just now still count?"

"What?" Liu Yueru's expression faded. "Just now, the prince framed me. It doesn't count."

Xie Jingrui: “….”

"I am the one who averted the danger. If Miss Liu goes back on her word, I don't mind untying the ropes now and leaving our fate to God to decide."

"You! Despicable!" Liu Yueru said angrily.

Xie Jingrui pretended to loosen his grip a little.

Liu Yueru was so scared that she held Xie Jingrui's hands tighter.

Xie Jingrui was very satisfied with Liu Yueru's reaction, and the corners of his lips slightly raised.

Then he pretended to be displeased and retorted: "I risked my life to accompany a gentleman, and you said I was despicable, why don't you say that you are untrustworthy?"

At this moment, Liu Yuru just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. Looking at the deep green pool under her feet, she was horrified.

"No, don't do anything rash. I can't die yet. The child is waiting for us to rescue him." Liu Yueru's voice softened.

"Crack..." A crisp sound was heard above my head.

Xie Jingrui and Liu Yueru looked up at the same time, and saw that the branches began to crack and looked like they were about to break at any time.

"Hold tight." Xie Jingrui said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, I will never let anything happen to you even if I die. Hua Ge'er is still waiting for his mother to come home." Xie Jingrui said to Liu Yueru in a hoarse voice.

Liu Yuru knew Xie Jingrui's heart at this moment. She hugged Xie Jingrui tightly and said, "Let's survive together. Yan Ge'er is also waiting for his father to come home."

"Your Highness, I will rescue you right away." A voice came from the top of the cliff.

A thick rope was also dropped from above.

Xie Jingrui frowned slightly and reached out to grab the rope.

Xie Jingrui raised his eyes again and when he looked at the secret guards above him, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes that they could not understand!

Is it wrong for them to arrive in time to rescue the prince?

Or did the prince dislike them for coming too late?

Think about this.

The secret guards pulled the rope faster, fearing that if they were too slow, Xie Jingrui would come up and skin them alive!

only!

Why did the look in their prince's eyes become increasingly gloomy and colder when he looked at them?

The leading secret guard came to the conclusion that the rope was not pulled fast enough, so he ordered, "Hurry up."

Not long after.

Xie Jingrui and Liu Yueru were pulled up together.

Xie Jingrui looked at those secret guards as if he wanted to cut them into pieces.

"I am late, please punish me, Your Majesty." The leading secret guard was confused and pleaded guilty tremblingly.

After Liu Yueru came up, she coughed lightly and asked Xie Jingrui with a blushing face, "My lord, can you let me go?"

Xie Jingrui reluctantly let go of the hand that was holding Liu Yueru.

Several secret guards looked at each other, and suddenly understood why their prince came up and looked at them like that.

The leading secret guard felt a chill down his spine, as if he had seen his own reincarnation.

Liu Yueru straightened her dress and looked towards the forest where Liu Yunni was.

They had already disappeared. Liu Yueru asked the secret guards on the ground: "Where are they?"

The secret guard glanced at Xie Jingrui, and only after seeing his gesture did he dare to reply, "When we arrived, he was gone."

"It was Liu Yunni. She took Yan Ge'er and Hua Ge'er away. There were also people with strong martial arts skills protecting her." Liu Yueru told Xie Jingrui about her discovery.

"She also said that if we don't open the city gates, we will never be able to find them."

Liu Yueru looked around the mountain and continued, "They are already hiding in the back mountain. Your Majesty can send someone to search here thoroughly."

Xie Jingrui narrowed his eyes slightly and said to the secret guards kneeling on the ground: "Send a group of people over and search the entire back mountain of Wanfu Temple carefully."

"Yes."

The secret guards fled as if they had received the order.

The blush on Liu Yueru's face has not yet completely faded.

Xie Jingrui tilted his head and looked at her.

Liu Yueru wanted to ignore the man's gaze, but it was too anxious, so she turned and looked towards the cliff.

"Be careful." Seeing her so worried, Xie Jingrui pulled her wrist and warned her.

Liu Yueru carefully pulled her hand back and walked back, but when she looked at the waterfall behind her, she always felt that someone inside was staring at them.

"Your Highness, did you feel the gaze coming from over there?" Liu Yueru asked Xie Jingrui doubtfully.

Xie Jingrui looked in the direction of the waterfall, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Go back first." He said in a deep voice.

Liu Yueru hummed softly.

The two walked side by side.

In the sunlight, they seemed like two people in love, hugging each other tightly, stretching their shadows very long and far away.

Xie Jingrui stared at Liu Yueru's face for a long time.

After a long time.

Then he slowly comforted her: "Don't worry, Hua Ge'er and Yan Ge'er will be fine."

Liu Yueru nodded. They knew how much Xie Jingrui loved Hua Ge'er, so for the sake of survival, they would not put the child's life in danger for the time being.

But Liu Yunni would probably vent her anger on the two children.

Thinking that Hua Ge'er and Yan Ge'er might be abused, Liu Yueru's breathing stagnated.

She looked at Xie Jingrui and pondered for a moment before asking, "Do you like Yan Ge'er?"

Xie Jingrui was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I like him. His way of doing things is very similar to mine."

"Why are you asking this suddenly?" Xie Jingrui asked with some confusion.

Liu Yueru showed a bitter look on her face...
