Nangong Lin frowned. His gaze was deep as he looked forward. He stood in place without moving.

A few steps away, Liu Zhixue had taken off her gorgeous clothes and put on an ordinary set of hemp clothes. Without any makeup on her face, she stood in front of others without any disguise on her already devastatingly beautiful face.

The beggars who bullied her didn't have the slightest intention to show mercy. Every punch and every kick was filled with such force.

"I beg you, what is it? Give this to me, I can't do without it." Taking a closer look, it turned out that Liu Zhixue was holding a crystal clear jade pendant in her hand.

The moment he saw the jade pendant, Nangong Lin's frown deepened.

If he wasn't wrong, that jade pendant was a token of their love.

Yan Xiaoxi turned her head. She noticed Nangong Lin's hesitant gaze and the fists that he was clenching. She could not help but pursed her lips.

At this moment, she suspected that Nangong Lin might have feelings for Liu Zhixue.

"Damned woman, let go. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite." The beggar desperately pulled the jade pendant in Liu Zhixue's hand.

"Please." Liu Zhixue's tears fell like rain. At this moment, she appeared to be extremely helpless.

Having lost the Liu Family, Liu Zhixue was like a proud phoenix that had fallen into the earth, becoming a sparrow that was being bullied by others.

"Our patience is limited. If you don't let go, don't blame us for what we will do." The beggars were only there for the sake of money, so they didn't do anything for the time being.

"Yeah, you look pretty pretty. How about I give you the jade pendant to let us all feel refreshed." As he said that, the other beggar shamelessly touched Liu Zhixue's face.

Liu Zhixue abruptly retreated backwards, yelling with all her might, "Help, help?"

"This is a good suggestion, she's much more interesting than the jade pendant." The other beggar agreed.

When he heard this, Nangong Lin finally couldn't hold it in anymore. With a few strides, he stopped in his surroundings and without saying anything further, he punched the beggar that spoke rudely, causing him to fall to the ground.

"Fuck, who beat me up?" The beggar's teeth were dripping with red blood. After lying on the ground for a few seconds, he stood up.

The first thing that entered the beggar's eyes was Nangong Linyun's ink-blue robe. With one look, he could tell that this was a high-grade item, not something that an ordinary person could afford. The person who came must be rich or not, the beggar thought, for the first robbery, seeing that Liu Zhixue was alone and weak, there should be no meaning to it.

Who knew that this woman would give them all her hairpins, bracelets, and purse? She was the only one who was holding onto that piece of jade.

This was the reason for the current situation, and the cause of the trouble.

When the beggar raised his gaze and saw Nangong Lin's sculpture-like face, he froze on the spot and quickly retreated.

"You …" The beggar was so shocked that he was at a loss for words.

Wasn't this person the Prince Lin whom all the people of the Southern Water Nation admired?

Why was it here?

The beggar looked around and realized that this was actually the entrance to Prince Lin's mansion.

Oh my god, it seems like they were really possessed. They actually touched the ground at the end of the year.

"This little one has eyes but does not recognize Tai Ba, please forgive me, your highness." The few of them knelt down and begged for mercy with all their might.

"Forgive me?" Nangong Lin snorted coldly.

"Your highness, this little one has no other choice. Mother is sick, so in order to save her, I came up with this plan." The beggar hurried to explain. Rumor has it that Prince Lin was the most understanding, and upon hearing this explanation, he would probably let them go.

"Yes, my lord, we are forced by life." The other person tightly grabbed onto the corner of Nangong Lin's clothes. It felt as if they were holding onto a lifesaver, unwilling to let go no matter what.

"I beg Your Highness to let us go this time, in the future I will absolutely not do anything that would harm the heavens or the earth." This person kept kowtowing to Nangong Lin, trying to get him to let him go.

Nangong Lin was also not a fool, he did not believe everything others said.

It was unknown when the butler had already stood by Nangong Lin's side. He gave the butler a look. The butler understood and immediately went to do some work.

"Big Brother Lin." Liu Zhixue struggled to stand up from the ice-cold ground. Her fair skin was already red and purple. It seemed that her injuries were not light.

Big Brother Lin?

Hearing this address, the beggars were shocked once again.

Did this girl know Prince Lin?

It's over, it's all over. This time they're dead for sure, why is it that their luck was so bad the first time they stole something from me?

Yan Xiaoxi stood silently a few steps away. She did not move a single step as she took in everything in sight.

From her point of view, the beggar did not seem to know Liu Zhixue.

In that case, was it really just a coincidence?

"Xue'er, why are you here?" Nangong Lin's tone remained the same as he asked indifferently.

"I … I just want to take one last look at Elder Brother Lin before leaving." Liu Zhixue bit her lips, her burning gaze never leaving Nangong Lin's body.

"You want to leave the Southern Water Country?" Nangong Lin did not expect to hear this from Liu Zhixue's mouth.

"Xue'er is extremely grateful to Big Brother Lin for pleading for me. Father has done all these things, and now, he's asking for it himself. No matter how much face Xue'er has, she has no one to rely on in this place. She only wants to leave this sorrowful place and start over." Liu Zhixue said with tears in her eyes. Seeing the situation so clearly, it caused people to be shocked. They could not help but have a better impression of her.

Nangong Lin was stunned. He could see her from Liu Zhixue in front of him. She was not a bad person after all. As long as they could change their minds, it was still possible for them to find their way back.

From the looks of it, Liu Zhixue had gone through so many things. Perhaps, it was just as he had wished, returning to her original heart and returning to her innocent and kind self.

"Goodbye, Big Brother Lin." Without giving Nangong Lin any chance to reply, Liu Zhixue turned around and left. Her speed was so fast that she only left Nangong Lin with a decisive back.

According to Nangong Lin's knowledge, Liu Zhixue's parents were both only children. She had no one that could submit to her.

"Isn't that person Liu Zhixue? "I've heard that General Liu colluded with the enemy and sold off the country, and was imprisoned. His entire family was implicated, and the Emperor spared her because of Prince Lin." A group of women had been attracted over by Liu Zhixue's scream just now. They had surrounded them and were discussing amongst themselves.

"That's right, what a pity. It was General Liu's fault." Everyone felt very sympathetic towards Liu Zhixue's plight. She was originally the pride of the heavens, yet she had become the daughter of a sinner. How great of a blow would this be?

"Prince Lin is also ruthless. After all, they've been in love for so many years, and he was willing to let Miss Liu be left alone and bullied by others. Wandering is out there." One of the women said carefully.

In their eyes, Nangong Lin and Liu Zhixue had always been a match made in heaven. It was a pity that in the end, fate and fate made no difference. Even so, after so many years of love, Prince Lin shouldn't have been so heartless.

Therefore, men are unruly love, only hear the new laugh, unsteady old people cry.

"That's right, that's right. Miss Liu really has a tough life." This woman continued to comply.

Their voices were not loud, and it just so happened that Nangong Lin could hear them.

Nangong Lin cast a cold gaze in the direction of the woman, instantly silencing the crowd.

They did not dare to speak anymore. Although they sympathized with Liu Zhixue, they were more afraid of angering Nangong Lin.

Liu Zhixue had already walked one-third of the way to the front of Prince Lin's residence. She kept walking straight without stopping at all.

"Sister Liu, please wait." A woman's voice sounded at the scene.
