Ming Lingyi thought Li Yun was spouting nonsense.
She rolled her eyes at him without a word.
Li Yun, however, started muttering an explanation. "I wasn't exactly lying, was I? I was just helping him see that he should back off. Besides, you rejected him today too, didn't you?"
"How did you know that?" Ming Lingyi couldn't help but ask.
Li Yun poured himself another glass of water. He was actually starting to feel a little thirsty.
"Isn't it obvious?" He glanced at Ming Lingyi with a grin, looking smug now that his little plan had worked. It was undeniable that after sending Jiang Yuchuan away, Li Yun was in an exceptionally good mood. No one looking at him now would ever guess that just moments ago, facing Jiang Yuchuan, he had been so enraged he'd wanted to draw his sword and kill the man. "We're husband and wife. How could I not know what you're thinking?"
Ming Lingyi scoffed at that but didn't deign to reply.
Li Yun added, "I was helping you out of a tight spot."
