She looked up at the stunning woman in front of her and suddenly gave a short laugh. "You probably think I'm a joke."
Lu Liangwei raised an eyebrow. Her expression remained calm as she replied seriously, "Somewhat, but I'm not laughing at you, truly."
Li Tong'er clenched her fist and turned away. She felt embarrassed, but still forced herself to say, "Thank you for being willing to save me."
Lu Liangwei shook her head. "The one who saved you was that child, not me." At that, she pointed at Chu Qi who was standing at the side.
Chu Qi darted a look at her and turned to leave, sword in hand.
They were both about the same age, so why was she pretending to be more mature and call him a child?!
Chu Qi was a little annoyed.
Li Tong'er watched the young man walking away as she looked over at him.
She suddenly found this to be a little incredulous.
The Empress was about the same age as the boy, yet she was calling him a child.
