Chapter 493

Li Chungang shook his head and had no intention of leaving.

"How can this be? I lost, so I should be willing to accept the bet. Since Senior doesn't want to leave, then make another request!"

Now it was Xu Fengnian who felt embarrassed. He had tried to calculate against Li Chungang, but Li Chungang didn't even hold it against him. He felt guilty in his heart.

"In that case, let the girl Qingniao leave with Lin Fan!"

Li Chungang was silent for a moment before suddenly pointing at Qingniao.

"What? Senior, Lin Fan has already inexplicably snatched away one of my childhood sweethearts, the Western Chu Princess, and you still want me to give Qingniao to him?"

Xu Fengnian looked at Li Chungang in disbelief. You old thing, don't tell me you want me to become a lonely person like you?

"Qingniao is a dead soldier arranged for you by your father Xu Xiao, destined to cut off love and desire and die for you at any time. But I saw the affection she has for Lin Fan in her eyes. In this life, the thing I can't stand the most is loving someone you can't have. If you can't be with the person you love, then what's the point of being the world's number one? Since you want to keep your bet, then let Qingniao go!"

Li Chungang had just seen the shadow of Green-Robed in Qingniao, and he didn't want Qingniao to be as tragic as Green-Robed.

"Qingniao, you've been by my side all along—when exactly did you fall in love with Lin Fan? Could it be just because of those legends about Lin Fan circulating in the Jianghu?"

Xu Fengnian was silent for a moment and turned to look at Qingniao.

"Heir Apparent, I…"

Qingniao didn't know how to explain. Should she say she had Lin Fan's diary copy, and although her person was by the Heir Apparent's side, her heart had long since followed Lin Fan to roam the Jianghu?

"Willing to accept the bet, I agree. From now on, there is no dead soldier C, nor is there a maid Qingniao. You are free!"

Xu Fengnian sighed dejectedly and finally agreed to set Qingniao free.

"But…"

"There are no 'buts'. Girl Qingniao, if you have someone you like, cherish every second you are with him. You never know whether tomorrow or an accident will come first!"

Qingniao wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Li Chungang. As someone who had been through it, he advised Qingniao to cherish the person before her.
