Smiling and being a good listener.

While listening, she would also insert a few words in the middle with interest from time to time, making Li Ping and Zhao Jin more interested in recalling the true past between them and their individuals in a deeper and more comprehensive way.

Then, Zhao Lanyue looked at Li Ping with more tender eyes.

Even later, she simply put her hand in Li Ping's hand affectionately.

Although Li Ping was a little surprised, he still held it gently.

Zhao Jin frowned slightly at the increasingly undisguised closeness between Zhao Lanyue and Li Ping.

He had long sensed that something was a little abnormal about these two people.

Gao Lei actually attended the banquet, but Gao Lei, who never drank, left early because she had other things to do, and never came back.

Neither Li Ping nor Zhao Jin tried to persuade Gao Lei to leave, nor did they take it seriously.

Gao Lei and Zhao Jin were not familiar with each other, and it was difficult to be interested in their topics. It was normal not to continue to accompany them.

But Zhao Lanyue stayed all the time and even drank some fruit wine with her.

This actually surprised Zhao Jin.

Moreover, Zhao Jin had long noticed that the relationship between Li Ping and Zhao Lanyue was a bit abnormal. The distance between them seemed not so clear. Especially after Gao Lei left, the contrast became more obvious.

However, out of politeness, Zhao Jin initially chose to remain silent.

When Zhao Lanyue naturally sat next to Li Ping after the banquet was cleared, Zhao Jin finally understood something.

Of course it was even more surprising.

Now, the two people's hands are so close and pulled together, everything is completely self-evident.

Although he was very puzzled and even felt a little awkward, it was not his turn to talk about this kind of thing.

They are all adults, and they are in their second life. It is impossible for Zhao Jin to interfere with Li Ping's choice.

But it was impossible to continue to pretend to be confused at this time, so Zhao Jin smiled and asked: "Are you two together?"

"Well, we're together." Li Ping grabbed Zhao Lanyue's hand and raised it to Zhao Jin in a show-off manner.

Zhao Lanyue also hurriedly smiled shyly.

After sending a simple blessing, Zhao Jin did not show any interest in further understanding, but continued to talk happily and openly about his past with Li Ping, including Li Ping's embarrassing things...

That afternoon, Zhao Jin hurriedly left Yuezhou under the escort of a company of cavalry sent by Li Ping.

The escort he had brought with him had temporarily transformed into a messenger and rushed to Wuchang in advance to report to Zuo Liangyu.

The main reason why he left in such a hurry and did this was that Zhao Jin needed to return to Changsha as soon as possible, and then lead the army to regain Changde Mansion and make a gesture of pursuing Zhang Xianzhong.

This was the result of discussions between him and Li Ping.

During his short trip to Yuezhou, Zhao Jin had fully grasped the current situation and Zhang Xianzhong's dynamics, and especially understood that his current situation was becoming increasingly embarrassing.

Shi Ming abandoned Zuo Liangyu and Li Ping only planned to inform Lu Daqi while pursuing Zhang Xianzhong to Sichuan on his own initiative, which would undoubtedly make Zhao Jin, who was already in a very bad situation, even more uncomfortable.

He has never been in such urgent need of military glory.

Very urgent!

He needs military merit to increase his weight and protect himself.

At the same time, the weapons, equipment, supplies and craftsmen that Li Ping insisted on giving him will also be handed over in Changde Mansion.

That was also the most suitable place they negotiated.

On the way, looking back at the faint shadow of Yuezhou City, Zhao Jin couldn't help but feel a little sad, and then tears flowed down uncontrollably.

During this meeting, Li Ping strongly invited him to go to Sichuan together, but Zhao Jin refused.

What does the future hold?

Zhao Jin doesn't know.

He only knew that he and Li Ping were destined to part ways.

But no matter what, they will never become enemies one day.
