"If Qu Lingyue dies, Wanbeast City will definitely ask you to pay your life. Jun Xie, I know you are arrogant, but now your life is more important. If you provoke Wanbeast City, even Fenghua Academy will not be able to protect you." Lei Fan said earnestly, with a hint of worry in his voice, as if he really regarded Jun Wuxie as a confidant, and wanted to protect her safety with all his heart.

"Oh? Then what do your Highness have any opinions?" Jun Wuxie said.

A smile flashed in Lei Fan's eyes, and he quickly covered it up. He said with a sincere look: "Jun Xie, although I am not as good as the crown prince of Yan State, I am the fourth prince of Yan State at least. If you become my companion, I can rely on my father's favor for me and beg him to protect you carefully. Of course... this is just a temporary solution. If you don't want to stay by my side afterwards, I will never force you! I just want to save you, and only if you become my confidant, the father will do his best to protect you."

Jun Wuxie didn't speak immediately, she just looked at Lei Fan as if she wanted to find something from Lei Fan's face.

Lei Fan looked at Jun Wuxie calmly.

Jun Wuxie suddenly shook his head.

"Thank you for your kindness, no need."

Jun Wuxie's refusal made Lei Fan's face stiffen instantly. He had never expected that Jun Wuxie would refuse his rescue in such a situation. He took a deep breath, suppressed his inner displeasure, and tried hard to maintain a kind face.

"Jun Xie rejected my kindness, but because of the emperor's brother?"

"How do you say this?" Jun Wuxie said.

Lei Fan smiled bitterly and said, "I know Jun Xie, you have a good relationship with the emperor. As the crown prince of the Yan Kingdom, the emperor is naturally not comparable to that of a young prince like me. But Jun Xie, have you not seen yet? Have you ever seen me here in prison for a few days? Have he ever thought about saving you? With Jun Xie, your strength, the emperor naturally wants to win you over, but Qu Lingyue is not an ordinary person, she is the eldest lady of Wan Beast City. To be honest, the emperor has been trying to please Qu Lingyue a long time ago. He also takes good care of Qu Lingyue on weekdays. What he values ​​is Wan Beast City behind Qu Lingyue!"

"Now, you have hurt Qu Lingyue, the emperor must make a choice between you and Qu Lingyue. Junxie, no matter how outstanding you are, in the eyes of the emperor, he still cannot compare with Wanbeast City behind Qu Lingyue. Do you know that in the two days you were imprisoned, the emperor's brother went to the restaurant where Zhanqi Academy was located to ask about Qu Lingyue's injuries? Can't you still see that he is planning to abandon you and protect his relationship with Wanbeast City?" Lei Fan's tone became more and more excited. He couldn't help but hold the iron railing of the cage with his hands. His slightly wide open eyes were filled with worry and injustice, and his face was also blushed due to excitement.

Jun Wuxie just looked at Lei Fan calmly, and her quietness made Lei Fan, who was excited, look extremely ridiculous.

"Your Highness is thinking too much. I don't expect your prince to save me." Jun Wuxie spoke lightly.

"Then why do you still reject my proposal? I really want to help you!" Lei Fan said excitedly.

"Prison is not the place where Your Highness should come. Your Highness can go back." Jun Wuxie lowered his eyes and issued a decree order to expel guests.
