Chapter 219: Sweet Honey Ashes Like Frost 40
The hiding person was dressed in black, wrapping his entire body tightly, leaving only his face exposed.

The key point is that Ling Xi doesn’t recognize this face and she has never seen this person before.

Yanyou put out the fire on his body, jumped in front of Runyu, and complained with a bitter face: "Your Highness Yeshen, this maid beside you wants to burn me to death."

Hearing Yanyou put Lingxi in the position of a maid as soon as he spoke, and spoke without the slightest respect, Runyu's face turned cold and he warned: "Axi is not my maid, Yanyou, be careful with your words."

"It's not a maid," Yanyou tilted his head, "What is it?"

Ling Xi looked at Yan You with sharp eyes, "Who are you? Why are you in my Xuanji Palace?"

Yan You said with a smile: "Beautiful lady, let me introduce myself. I am Yan You, the Snake Fairy, a famous handsome man in the six realms. As for why I am in your Xuanji Palace, you should ask His Majesty Ye Shen."

Yanyou?

Why does this name sound so familiar?
The name Yanyou flashed through Ling Xi's mind, and he finally found this name in the corner of his head.

Oh, isn’t this Jin Mi’s friend?

Ling Xi looked at Yan You, paused, and said strangely: "Oh, you are the snake fairy Yan You who was driven down to the mortal world by Sui He and the Queen Mother a hundred years ago?"

When Yanyou heard what Ling Xi said, his face twisted for a moment.

He sneered, "Beauty, it's not good for you to expose people's shortcomings like this, right?"

Under Yanyou's glaring eyes, Ling Xi sat down calmly and threw Yanyou's words back: "Same here, you came out of Qiwu Palace and ran all the way to my Xuanji Palace, and also attracted the God of Fire. Tell me, what exactly do you want to do? Don't you think that the Queen Mother regards Runyu as a thorn in her side?"

At the end, the look Ling Xi gave Yan You could be said to be murderous.

Yanyou turned his head away guiltily and said stubbornly, "It's just a misunderstanding. I was just panicking."

Ling Xi laughed twice, "Do you think I will believe you?"

Ling Xi put down the cup with a bang and warned Yan You: "Go back and tell the people behind you not to target Runyu and Jinmi anymore. If she wants revenge, let her do whatever she wants. We even have a common enemy. I can even help her, but if innocent people are involved, don't blame me for not giving you face."

Yanyou was startled by the bang, his heart tightened and his palms were sweating from nervousness.

How does she know so much?
"You and Jin Mi are good friends. If Jin Mi knew that you were using her, how do you think she would feel?" Ling Xi looked at Yan You with a smile, and there was a threat in her words.

Hearing this, Yanyou's expression changed again.

"I understand." He replied with a complicated expression.

Ling Xi looked at him straight: "Now that you know, leave quickly. I hope you can convey my words to the master behind you."

Yanyou looked at Ling Xi with a strange look for a while before casting a spell and leaving.

After Yanyou left, Lingxi poured a cup of flower tea for Runyu beside him, handed it to him, smiled gently, and then said, "If you have anything to ask, just ask it."

Runyu's mood was very complicated.

He felt that Ling Xi seemed to know everything, but he was confused and knew nothing.

"Axi, do you know who is behind Yanyou?" Runyu stroked the wall of the cup. For some reason, he had a hunch that the person behind Yanyou had an inseparable relationship with him.

Ling Xi didn't know how to answer Runyu's question. She certainly knew the truth about the person behind Yanyou, and this person had a great relationship with him.

But Runyu no longer remembers his childhood memories, and she couldn't let Runyu recall those painful childhood memories.

"Runyu," Ling Xi's eyes flashed with flesh-colored light, and his gaze moved, "Do you still remember your childhood?" Runyu was stunned and subconsciously tightened the cup in his hand. A light and shadow flashed in his mind, but he could not see the face clearly.

As far as he could remember, he was brought to the Heavenly Palace by the Mother Goddess. People in the outside world said that he was the illegitimate son of his Father Emperor, but he really didn't know who his biological mother was. It was said in the Heavenly Realm that she was gone. Moreover, he really couldn't remember anything about his childhood.

"I don't remember," Runyu shook his head with a gloomy face. However, since he was brought to heaven by the Mother Goddess, it was possible that his biological mother had really died or had abandoned him on her own initiative.

In this case, it doesn’t matter whether he has the childhood memories or not.

Ling Xi looked at Runyu, with a hint of heartache in her eyes, "Do you want to regain your previous memories?"

Runyu remained silent, thought for a while, and replied: "Not for now, Axi, I'm not ready yet."

Ling Xi held Runyu's hand, trying to warm it with the warmth in her hand. She comforted him softly, "Don't worry, I will be with you. I will support you no matter what decision you make."

People's hearts are always biased. If she were asked to choose one among everyone, she would only choose Runyu.

The woman's hands were hot, and a warm current flowed through Runyu's heart, as sweet as honey.

He couldn't help but let out a smile, a very warm and sincere smile. He used a little strength in his hands and held Ling Xi's hand tightly, as if he was holding his whole world.

At this moment, the two hearts seemed to be leaning against each other.

On the second day, when Runyu went to the astrological table to arrange the stars, Ling Xi left the Heavenly Palace and came to Dongting Lake alone.

Looking at the vast Dongting Lake in front of him, Ling Xi's heart was calm.

This place is governed quite well by the Lord of Dongting Lake. It seems that she has kept the hatred of that year firmly in her heart. At the same time, she has also transferred her longing for Taihu Lake to Dongting Lake.

At this time, a person suddenly appeared on the shore. He was a little boy wearing red clothes and had two horns on his head.

Ling Xi looked at him intently, and then thought of Runyu.

Was Runyu like this when he was young? He was very good-looking, lively, and would sneak out to play.

It’s a pity that she didn’t meet Runyu earlier.

But think about it, it wasn't too late for her to meet him.

"Sister," the little boy ran to Ling Xi and stood in front of her without her noticing.

The little boy tugged at Ling Xi's clothes, tilted his head back, and asked in a childish voice, "Sister, are you looking for someone?"

Ling Xi looked at the child, squatted down, and was at the same height as him. He touched his head and asked gently: "What's your name?"

The little boy smiled, showing a few teeth, "My name is Li'er."

"Li'er, can you take your sister to find the owner of this lake?" Ling Xi conjured up a small toy and handed it to him.

Li'er took the toy, and the next second, she said crisply: "No, sister, my stepmother doesn't see outsiders."

Ling Xi: "Then go tell her that there is a sister who has news about her older brother and ask her if she wants to meet this sister."

Li'er's childish face was confused, "Okay, sister, wait for me."

Then he entered the water.

Ling Xi hurried to follow.
