Having known each other for many years, how could Huangfu Lingyao not be aware of Mu Jiangli's martial prowess?
Knowing about his deep inner strength was one thing, but from the force he displayed, Huangfu Lingyao could also sense that Mu Jiangli did not have a favorable view of the Liu family.
Could it be that he had some grudge against the Liu family?
But if there was enmity with the Liu family, why was he so concerned about Liu Shimei?
Or was it because of Liu Shimei that he harbored this resentment towards the Liu family?
From Mu Jiangli's recent behavior, it was clear that his concern for Liu Shimei came from the heart. So much so that when Huangfu Lingyao mentioned 'Because the Crown Prince likes her', it caused him to lose his composure.
He wanted to ask more, but Mu Jiangli suddenly said, "I will fulfill the promise I made to you. But, Huangfu Lingyao, if you harm her, I will not spare you!"
Huangfu Lingyao shivered.
