On the way back, Nalan Que tried again. "Li Yixiao, I'm telling you. Don't retreat so that you can advance. Don't loosen the reins only to grasp them later. Don't purposely complicate matters… if you ask me now, I may give this ring to you. Only if you promise me that…"
"What is wrong with you ladies?" Li Yixiao said, "We have to pass this to the higher ups. How can we take this for ourselves? Do you not have any awareness? Don't use your way of thinking to dirty my noble sentiments!"
Li Yixiao did not care about the ring. Incidentally, he could be more strong-willed in front of Nalan Que. There was no reason for him not to be happy!
"Ha ha," Nalan Que laughed. "Fine, fine. I have dirtied your sentiments. You'd better not regret it!"
