336 Baili Was Acting Strangely
“What do you mean by understanding a brother? Then please understand that I’m usually too tired from doing business. Can you commit suicide?”
Ning Yue was angry, so she naturally did not stand on ceremony.
She thought that the boss would be angry, but he suddenly laughed out loud. “Since Princess Mingyue doesn’t like me, I’ll take my leave. I hope Princess Mingyue will abide by your agreement with me.”
Then, without letting Ning Yue speak, he turned around and left.
Ning Yue stood rooted to the ground in shock. What promise had she made to this boss? Why couldn’t she remember a word?
No, she had to think carefully about what he had said about her saving his wife in the past. Otherwise, she would be easily led by the nose.
After the boss had walked far away, she looked at Baili. Her sharp gaze made Baili’s scalp tingle.
“Baili, tell me honestly. What’s your relationship with the Demon Palace?” Ning Yue asked.
“There’s no relationship.” Baili knelt on one knee.
He did not tell Ning Yue that this was Yuan Hui’s idea. He did not dare to say anything and could only tell Ning Yue that they did not mean anything else. He would definitely protect Ning Yue well.
His attitude angered Ning Yue.
She sneered but didn’t reprimand Baili. “Do you think what you did was right or wrong?”
“I was foolish. I know I was wrong. Princess, please forgive me.” Baili did not dare to look at Ning Yue.
Ning Yue was rarely angry. Her tone was very bad now.
He knew that she was angry, and he also knew that he had touched Ning Yue’s bottom line. However, what he had done this time was not too out of line. Could Ning Yue not help him?
No, his main point was that this was Yuan Hui’s idea.
Seeing Baili’s attitude, Ning Yue frowned slightly. He did not feel that he had done anything wrong at all. On the contrary, he even thought that he was doing this for her own good.
Ning Yue sighed. She didn’t know what to say.
“Baili, I can’t control you. Leave now.”
Baili’s expression changed completely as he looked at Ning Yue in disbelief.
He knew that his actions this time had angered Ning Yue, but he thought that he would just let Ning Yue reprimand him. He did not expect it to be so serious.
“I know my mistake. Princess, please punish me. Princess, don’t let me leave!” Baili was a little flustered.
Yuan Hui was the one who sent him to Ning Yue’s side. Now, Ning Yue actually asked him to leave.
“Baili, you have to be clear. It’s not that I want you to leave, but it’s not suitable for you to stay by my side. You’re working under uncle emperor. You’re the most suitable person to stay by his side. It’s hard on you to stay by my side,” Ning Yue said.
Ning Yue’s attitude was very firm. She wanted Baili to leave. With Baili’s personality, it was indeed not suitable for him to stay by her side.
“Princess, I know my mistake.” Baili was unwilling to leave no matter what.
Ning Yue sighed again. “You belong to uncle emperor. You’ve been away for so long. You should return to his side.”
Baili’s eyes darkened. It seemed that the princess was not planning to forgive him.
“Princess, I was wrong. Please don’t chase me away.” Baili looked at Ning Yue. “The emperor said that if I can’t protect you well, he’ll tell me to get lost as far as possible.” Baili’s smile was a little forced.
“But do you know what you did wrong just now?” Ning Yue asked.
Although Baili kept saying that he knew he was wrong, he did not seem to realize what he had done wrong.
Sure enough, Baili shook his head.
“Although I follow the emperor, I’m not an official. I’m just a guard. I’m good at fighting. I can do anything for the emperor. Perhaps sometimes I don’t understand the ways of the world or how to deal with interpersonal relationships. I’ve decided on my own thoughts and judgment. My decision is the best choice for you.” Baili looked a little bitter as he said it.
“Princess, please don’t despise me. I’m willing to learn from you. Princess, please teach me.” Baili looked at Ning Yue sincerely.
Not only was Ning Yue very business-minded, but she also had her own methods to deal with some people.
Before Ning Yue went to the Fenghua Pavilion, he had already asked around. Liu Lian was a difficult person to deal with.
She could even deal with such a difficult person. This meant that their princess was very capable.
Baili believed that Ning Yue was very powerful. If he followed her, he would definitely learn a lot.
