Chapter 471 Star, why are you running?
As soon as Qi Yunran opened the door, she saw Xingchen standing at the bow of the ship.

His sharp eyes scanned his surroundings, his expression showing no sign of relaxation.

Assassins who come to kill on merchant ships usually appear when the people on board are at their weakest, when everyone is drowsy.

After keeping watch all night, with dawn approaching, they naturally let their guard down.

For almost a month now, the assassin has appeared almost every night around this time.

Therefore, he was quite vigilant, and usually, when these assassins came, he would take them out silently.

When they woke up at dawn, the place had already returned to peace.

He had already thrown those assassins into the sea to feed the big fish.

Upon hearing the noise, he immediately turned around.

When he saw Qi Yunran, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

His eyes were fixed greedily on her fair and delicate face.

But suddenly, as if remembering something, he narrowed his eyes and immediately prepared to retreat, handing the bow of the boat to Qi Yunran.

But Qi Yunran angrily called out to him, "Xingchen, why are you running?"

Xingchen was taken aback when he heard Qi Yunran's somewhat angry voice!
What's up with her?
Qi Yunran quickly walked to Pei Yuanjun's side, and she got angry just looking at his black mask.

Caught off guard, Xingchen had her mask removed.

A flicker of panic crossed his face; he wasn't good at hiding his emotions.

With the mask on, he doesn't need to hide anything; he can make any expression he wants.

But now that Qi Yunran has suddenly ripped off his mask, Xingchen immediately turns his face to her side.

He was afraid that she would see the deep affection and unwavering devotion in his eyes.

He didn't want her to hate him! But he couldn't bring himself to forget her and stop liking her immediately!

Seeing that Pei Yuanjun wouldn't even look at her, Qi Yunran felt frustrated and said in a cold voice, "Xingchen, will you still wear a mask when you return to Louqu Kingdom?" Xingchen felt a pang of sadness; she was indeed angry.

He thought that after not seeing her for more than half a month, her attitude towards him would have changed.

But to her surprise, it only made her hate it even more.

A huge boulder pressed down on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe, and his nose felt a little sore.

Her eyes were moist, but she tried her best to suppress her emotions.

"Master, if you don't like it, I won't wear Xingchen anymore."

It's a bit difficult to say, but not wearing a mask requires even more self-control to control one's facial expressions.

She wanted to prevent him from realizing that he still loved her, so that he would dislike him even more.

Qi Yunran was almost amused by Xingchen's evasive gaze.

I've been avoiding her for over twenty days, and to make matters worse, I gave her a hard time the moment we met. Why should I?
“Pei Yuanjun, let me tell you, don’t flatter yourself. I tore off your mask because we’re about to arrive in Louqu Kingdom, and I was afraid you’d frighten Bao’er. Didn’t you say you’d comfort Bao’er when we got back? If Bao’er sees you wearing an iron mask, just like those masked men in black, do you think she’ll be scared?”

Pei Yuanjun paused, his excitement and anticipation shattered.

He thought she was telling him that she liked him.

He was filled with anticipation, ecstasy, and excitement.

But this is the last sentence!
Her eyes were lowered as she looked at the sea: "Master, rest assured, Xingchen will be careful!"

Qi Yunran was completely enraged by his attitude: "Master my foot! You call me master in front of Bao'er? Do you dare?"

Xingchen remained silent, pursing his lips. It wasn't that he was afraid, but that he didn't want Bao'er to know about their relationship.

In front of Bao'er, he thought of Qi Yunran as only Bao'er's mother, and he was simply her father.

Seeing that Xingchen had suddenly fallen silent, Qi Yunran sneered, "Why aren't you saying anything? Aren't you usually so irritating?"
