After listening to Li Ye's panicked defense, Liu Mingzhi's eyes became sharper instead of lessening.
In fact, even the faintest hint of murderous intent became clearly visible.
Li Ye felt the obvious murderous intention in Young Master Liu's eyes, and a little sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.
Looking at his uncle with a panicked look, Li Ye involuntarily took a few steps back.
"Uncle, I really don't think that way. The reason why I can't form a good relationship with Miss Ren is because I have an obsession in my heart that I can't let go of.
Uncle, we have known each other for so many years, and you should know very well what kind of person my child is.
If the child really has evil intentions, I should lie dormant and wait for the opportunity, right? Why break the agreement and risk death by coming to Beijing?
My son broke the contract and went to Beijing this time. I really just asked uncle for help. You have to believe me."
Liu Mingzhi stared at the panicked Li Ye, and slowly took out a dagger with a cold light from his sleeve, holding it tightly in his hand.
"Ye'er, no matter what your thoughts are, to my uncle, these are no longer important.
I don't care whether you really can't accept Yatou Ren or because you see her feelings for her uncle. To me, there is no difference between these two points.
Because for a dead man, I don't care about this at all."
After hearing what Young Master Liu said, Li Ye's heart suddenly trembled. He stared at the dagger in Young Master Liu's hand with wide eyes, full of fear and uneasiness.
"Uncle, are you going to kill me?"
Liu Mingzhi gently touched the sharp edge of the dagger with his fingers and nodded noncommittally.
"That's right, Ye'er, your continued living is always a disadvantage to my uncle. Only when you die can I truly feel relieved.
If you cut the weeds without eradicating the roots, they will grow again with the spring breeze. If you are still alive, uncle and I will never sleep well.
The reason why I didn't kill you before was because my uncle missed his old relationship. But now that you have violated the agreement, I really can't find a reason not to kill you.
Just like you can't find a reason to convince yourself to accept Ren Yatou, uncle, I can't find a reason to convince myself not to kill you."
As Liu Mingzhi spoke, he took steps, raised the dagger with a cold light in his hand, pointed it at Li Ye's neck, and slowly approached.
"Ye'er, my uncle has no choice but to send you on his way. He has no choice but to do it. Don't blame me after you go underground."
"Uncle, wait a moment, wait a moment."
Young Master Liu paused slightly and stared coldly at Li Ye, who had his hands raised in a panic.
"Do you have any last words?"
Li Ye put down his hands and took a few deep breaths, looking imploringly at his indifferent uncle.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! My uncle wants to kill the child, and the child has nothing to say. After all, the child broke the contract first. But before my uncle wants to kill the child, can I agree to the child's request?"
"Let's talk about it. As long as it's not too much, my uncle can give it some thought."
Li Ye breathed a sigh of relief, took out the delicate purse from his arms and handed it to Liu Mingzhi.
"Uncle, if you find her in the future, please return this purse to her and tell her that I, Li Ye, will definitely keep my promise in the next life.
If possible, please ask her to go to the child's grave to see the child."
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the purse in Li Ye's hand and sighed with complicated eyes.
"You are still such an infatuated person."
"Please uncle, please agree to this trivial request. I will be very grateful."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Ye's pleading eyes and shook his head lightly: "You should do these things yourself after you arrive at the Palace of Hell."
The moment Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, his figure turned into an afterimage and shot towards Li Ye. In less than a blink of an eye, the cold-gleaming dagger had already appeared in front of Li Ye's neck.
There were no corpses separated and no blood splattered. The dagger's blade stopped steadily at a hair's length from Li Ye's neck.
Li Ye looked at Mr. Liu standing in front of him in a state of confusion. Not only could he clearly feel the cold edge of the dagger, but he could also hear his own rapid heartbeat.
"Huhuhu uncle? What do you mean?"
Liu Mingzhi glanced at Li Ye, who was panting rapidly. The cold and murderous intent on his body was long gone. He put down the dagger and turned to look at the window where the breeze was blowing, with a look of regret in his eyes.
Silently putting the dagger into his cuff, Liu Mingzhi sighed to himself with melancholy eyes.
Maybe, I really guessed wrong.
Li Ye finally came to his senses and looked at Mr. Liu, whose murderous intention had long since disappeared, as if he was a different person. There was still a clear look of panic in his eyes.
"Uncle, you?"
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and patted Li Ye's shoulder, then walked towards the chair next to him.
"Ye'er, did I scare you just now?"
Li Ye swallowed hard several times and nodded involuntarily.
"To be honest, I was scared, and I was quite scared."
Liu Mingzhi sat on the chair and laughed, raised his eyes to look at the door of the private room and said softly: "Yan'er, don't stand outside, aren't your hands tired from holding the wine bottle?"
After a few breaths, the door was gently pushed open, and the third princess walked into the private room with a slight smile, holding a tray and walking lightly.
Although the third princess had a soft smile on her face, Liu Mingzhi still saw a slight hint of panic in her beautiful eyes.
The third princess secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the fear in her beautiful eyes gradually faded away. She put down the tray in her hand with a smile and placed two bottles of wine on the table.
"Husband, I just chatted with Sister Bizhu downstairs for a while, so I came up a little late, which delayed your drinking with Ye'er. I hope you won't take offense."
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a faint smile, picked up the pot and filled the two wine glasses on the table with wine.
"What are you talking about? It's just a trivial matter. How can my husband be willing to blame you?"
"Ye'er, sit down too, and we'll continue drinking. You were frightened just now, so drink a few drinks to calm down the fright."
"Uncle."
"Sit down and talk."
"Hey, kid, sit down right now."
Liu Mingzhi raised his wine glass as a gesture, then put it directly into his mouth and drank the wine in one gulp. Seeing this, Li Ye also hurriedly drank a glass of wine, but this glass of wine did not taste very good.
"Yan'er, pour some wine."
"Hey, I know it."
"Ye'er, my uncle didn't hide it from you. Just now, when I was standing at the window, I suddenly felt the aura of a master. I subconsciously thought it was your men who were ambushing me secretly.
So I deliberately put on a show to test you, hoping to see if that master was actually your subordinate.
My uncle was wrong, maybe he was just a martial arts man passing by."
Li Ye was stunned for a moment and nodded sadly.
"It turns out it was just a misunderstanding. The child really thought that uncle, you were going to kill the child!"
"Hehehe, brat, don't feel any pressure or burden in your heart. If my uncle really wants to kill you, why wait until today.
You should also understand in your heart that your presence may cause another bloody storm in Qiankun Langlang's world. Just in case, uncle, I have to be more cautious.
After all, my uncle really doesn’t want to see Dalong start another war and cause the people’s lives to suffer again.
What my uncle did just now was out of helplessness, so just don’t take it personally, let alone resent your uncle."
"No, no, although the child is scared, but after knowing the real reason, the child will not complain at all.
After all, my uncle is in a different position, so it is reasonable to be cautious."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Ye with gratified eyes: "You boy, you have not read in vain these years. After all, you have made a lot of progress."
"Uncle, you are so complimentary. My son is just passing the time."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's continue drinking."
