Currently the location that they were at, the nearest Da Qi border would be Ji City. Ye Zhen Zhen was worried about Li You returning to Ji City alone, so Ji Wu Jiu sent 50 soldiers to send him back. Actually Ji Wu Jiu felt that Li You is very suspicious— previously his 4 guards that was sent to spy on Li You, actually lost their target sight on Li You, and he somehow appeared in the Nu Zhen army, if to say it was out of coincidence, it really was too hard to believe. Furthermore, currently wars are everywhere, merchants travelling around has been reducing day by day, why would the merchant friend pass by a war zone?
Ji Wu Jiu strongly believed that this Li You has some problem, therefore when Ye Zhen Zhen waved goodbye to Li You, he made a decision. To bring Li You along with them.
Ye Zhen Zhen did not understand why he did that, Li You knew that they were going to go kill some people, so he was very unwilling to follow as well, but no matter what, Ji Wu Jiu did not let him go.
Ye Zhen Zhen was abit angry, “What are you trying to do, our trip this time is still considered very dangerous, why are you implicating the innocent?”
Ji Wu Jiu answered, “What if he is a spy, after he returned he might go look for Nu Zhen tribe to inform them, what would happen then?”
“How can he be a spy?”
“If he wasn’t a spy, I will guarantee his safety, Zhen Zhen, believe me”
Hearing how firm his decisions were, it means that he really felt that there was something wrong with Li You, and not blind jealousy. Anyhow, the suspicious towards other’s trait of Ji Wu Jiu cannot be changed easily. But as the emperor, his words are of finality, saying that he will protect Li You, means he would be able to do it.
Therefore, Ye Zhen Zhen could only console Li You for a bit, saying that to allow him to follow to let him experience the victory as well, to go there to play for a while before returning home, making it sound like they really are going there to visit as a tourist.
Li You can only laugh bitterly “Brother Zhen, you don’t have to say anymore, Brother Wu is suspicious of me right?”
Ye Zhen Zhen is not good with lying, and was not sure how she should explain.
Li You asks “Then, brother Zhen, what do you think? You also think that I am a spy?”
“How would I” Ye Zhen Zhen replied without thinking.
“Thank you” Li You looked at her seriously, “with your words, no matter how other people look at me it is not important anymore”
Ye Zhen Zhen started to feel uncomfortable from his gaze, rubbed the back of her head and said “I still haven’t thank you, for saving me that day”
Li You laughed “I was too anxious and even dragged you along with me, and still needed you to save me back, now you thanking me, really make me feel embarrassed”
Ye Zhen Zhen felt even more uncomfortable, “I didn’t mean that”
Just when Li You wanted to reply her, he saw Ji Wu Jiu walking towards them quickly, grabbed Ye Zhen Zhen’s back collar, and dragged her out. When he left, he also pass on a gaze of warning towards Li You.
Li You just rubbed his nose and smiled at him.
