The Regent's Tender Darling

Chapter 145 Just came to say thank you

After entering the room, Li Maonian had already sat down by the bed in the inn. Lin Jiaojiao looked around the room. In addition to a bed, there was a wooden table with a bench to sit on.

After sitting down, she glanced at Xuemei. Xuemei was stunned for a moment and quickly took out the wolf tooth necklace that had been in her arms for several days.

After holding it in the palm of his hand, he glanced at Li Maonian, who was sitting upright. His slender hands were placed lightly on his thighs. It didn't look scary, but he didn't know why there was always a bit of fear in his heart.

Maybe it was because he couldn't see clearly the face under the black veil, so he couldn't help but feel an unknown fear.

She walked over with the wolf tooth necklace and offered it with both hands. She lowered her head, not daring to look at the black hat.

However, Li Maonian didn't seem to make any move. After about a breath, the hand gently on his leg picked up the necklace.

Xuemei immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retreated to stand behind Lin Jiaojiao.

At this time, no one had the intention to speak. Li Maonian took the necklace and looked at it. He gently rubbed his thumb on the silver inlay of the wolf tooth, and there was a cloud on it.

"Where did you get it, Your Excellency?"

Lin Jiaojiao was inexplicably shocked when the neither serious nor serious words fell, and her face paused under the white gauze. After breathing out slowly, she forced herself to calm down.

Then he said to Xuemei: "Go out and guard."

Xuemei hesitated a little after hearing this, but then remembered that the empress often said that she was disobedient, so she quickly obeyed: "Yes."

When the door closed again, Lin Jiaojiao turned her attention to the man who had just begun to murder them.

If she dared to reveal Li Maonian's identity directly, she would have had enough.

She cleared her throat and said: "The former Japanese princess discovered that a little girl in the house had this wolf tooth necklace as her personal belongings, but as far as I know, this necklace belongs to Li Yun, the legitimate daughter of the Li family. "

After saying that, Li Maonian seemed to still be looking at the necklace and had no intention of speaking. She continued: "According to legend, although the entire Li family was executed, two young children survived, so I took that girl with me. When I returned to the hospital, I inquired carefully and found that she was most likely the orphan of Mr. Li back then. "

"Oh? What are your conditions?"

Li Maonian's voice was cold and calm as water, but in this calmness, there was a blade that could kill people at any time.

She didn't expect Li Maonian to be so direct, which was equivalent to breaking her idea, but she couldn't put forward conditions directly.

The affairs of the Li family have now been almost discussed, so she can no longer go into details. This urgent matter must be taken slowly.

After all, she still wants to go back alive today.

Looking at Li Maonian, she pretended not to hear and said in a calm tone: "This time, I just came to thank you for saving my prince."

As soon as the conversation changed, Li Maonian had to look at her. Although she couldn't see the eyes under the black gauze, she could feel it.

She continued: "I know that your husband is not a worldly person, and gold and silver should not come into his eyes. This princess promises your husband that if he encounters any trouble in the capital, my prince will help him handle it properly."

After saying that, she looked at Li Maonian with bated breath, waiting for the next reaction. She saw Li Maonian clenching the necklace in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.

This made her swallow her saliva even more.

After a while, Li Maonian stood up and bowed to her: "I would like to thank the princess."

Seeing this, she breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, nodded slightly and said, "Sir, if you don't give up, you can be a guest at the palace one day. My prince is not a pedantic person."
