Smacking his lips in embarrassment, Feng Jiuxi took his eyes off him, exhaled softly and said, "Brother Bai, don't get me wrong, I'm not disgusted with this matter...... It's just that I'm surprised, you also know that I've been entangled in public opinion recently, especially the prince is always entangled, and at this time you came in and got involved, I can't figure out what you mean......"

The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and Bai Li didn't answer immediately.

Feng Jiuxi didn't dare to look back at his expression, he only felt embarrassed, and his face was full of confusion.

It took a few breaths, like centuries.

Bai Li's voice finally sounded, "It's because I know that the prince has been pestering you for a while, so I want to help you." The best way I can think of is to ask the emperor for marriage, so that if the prince wants to pester you in the future, at least he will be worried that my Bai family on the other side is also watching you, so that he will not dare to do anything excessive. ”

Is that so? Feng Jiuxi asked herself if she should believe this explanation.

To say that he did this to help himself, Feng Jiuxi admitted that it would indeed make the prince jealous to a certain extent, but this approach is inevitably a bit too "self-sacrificing", right......

"Although our Bai family is not as strong as before, it is still one of the four major families, the emperor does not look at the face of the monk and looks at the face of the Buddha, and he will definitely not let the prince mess around." After a pause, Bai Li smiled bitterly and said, "If you feel that this matter has offended you, then I apologize to you, it's really not good, I can go to the saint again tomorrow and cancel this proposal." ”

Feng Jiuxi was soft-hearted in the end, and shook his head slightly, "No need, Brother Bai is also for my good, it's me who is quick to talk for a while, I misunderstood you, it stands to reason that I should thank you." ”

She is such a person, if someone treats her badly and wants to take advantage of her, she can ruthlessly refuse.

But if she really thinks about her, she can't be ruthless and becomes extremely soft-hearted.

Bai Li smiled, as gentle as ever, "Thank you without need, I just hope I didn't bother you." ”

"No...... It's just that in this way, it's me delaying you, in case you meet the woman you like in the future, won't it make her misunderstand. Feng Jiuxi said this, more or less with the intention of deliberately distancing himself.

In other words, he will have a woman he really likes in the future.

But that woman, it shouldn't be her.

Bai Li's eyes fell on her, for a moment, he opened his mouth and said slowly: "There won't be any misunderstanding, don't worry." ”

Because the person he likes is alive in front of him.

Bai Li silently added the latter sentence in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, as sensitive as him, how could he not see Feng Jiuxi's deliberate sense of alienation from him.

So he can't be in a hurry, he can only take it step by step and slowly let her accept himself.

"It's good that there is no misunderstanding." Feng Jiuxi smiled wryly.

It's not that she doesn't understand taste, it's just that if it's not possible between men and women, it's better to make it clear as soon as possible.

"Don't take this matter to heart, just treat it as a friend to help." Bai Li finally said with relief.

Since he had said everything to this point, Feng Jiuxi naturally didn't want to say anything more, just nodded, "Thank you." ”

"Nothing, I left. Baizhitang still has something waiting for me. ”

After Bai Li finished speaking, he got up and was about to leave.
