For once, Ming Lingyi was embarrassed.
But Li Yun just stared at her, giving her no chance to escape.
Ming Lingyi lowered her gaze. "Mm," she said, nodding. "What I said was wrong."
The corners of Li Yun's lips curled up uncontrollably.
When he realized it, he quickly forced them back down.
"So you think I'm better than him now?"
After all, wasn't this the very thing he had come here to hear Ming Lingyi say?
In what way was he inferior to Jiang Yuchuan?
Even after spending the past two days in the palace, tossing and turning day and night, he still couldn't find a single way in which he was inferior to Jiang Yuchuan.
If Ming Lingyi had felt a little guilty before, she now almost rolled her eyes at him upon hearing his words.
'So it turns out he disappeared for two days just to mull over how to make me take back what I said?'
But faced with Li Yun's deep and exceptionally earnest eyes, Ming Lingyi averted her gaze. "Mm-hmm, you're the best. You're better than anyone."
