"Duke's daughter." Ji Lingkong's eyebrows furrowed, filled with astonishment at her warm concern; it was truly odd. Unlike those infatuated noblewomen who pursued him tirelessly, Lie Fengzi was smart, knew how to retreat gracefully, and had a sense of proper conduct.
She was a woman with pride and dignity, not overly proactive or passionate. What happened today? Her attitude was so intimate; she seemed to regard him as her boyfriend, making the atmosphere ambiguous.
However, she hadn't done anything excessive, so he smiled lightly.
"Thank you for your concern, but I'm fine, and you don't need to waste Miss Lie's time."
"It's not a waste at all. As long as Young Master Ling Kong you recover quickly, I can be at ease." Despite his distant tone, Lie Fengzi didn't mind, continuing to smile warmly and kindly. "You made this sacrifice for the country; such a hero deserves everyone's respect. I truly admire you."
