风信惊了：“……我操了！你为什么要把他赶出军营？！他得罪你了？！” Feng Xin was astonished. “What the fuck...?! Why’d you do that? How’d he piss you off?!” 慕情满脸是血地道：“我只是让他回去，打仗又不是什么好事！我怎么知道他会疯成这样，记仇到现在！……” Mu Qing’s face was covered in blood. “I just made him go home— it’s not like it’s good to fight in a war! How could I have known he’d wind up being this crazy and holding grudges all this time—” 他没说完，又是狠狠一拳送上，“砰”的一声，几乎打歪了他的脸。花城微笑道：“你当初是为什么赶我走，当我猜不出来吗？嗯？” Hua Cheng cut him off with another punch, so forceful that Mu Qing’s face almost contorted when it landed. Bam! Hua Cheng smiled. “Did you think I couldn’t guess why you kicked me out? Hmm?” 慕情目光一闪。花城又嘻嘻地道：“事到如今，谁才是废物，很清楚了不是吗？” Mu Qing looked away, and Hua Cheng snickered. “I guess it’s clear which of us is actually useless trash, hm?” “...” 慕情仿佛被戳了痛脚，吐了一口血，一字一句地道：“幸好把你撵走了，不然留你在军中，让你慢慢靠近太子、整天盯着他脑子里不知想什么龌龊东西吗？那可太恶心了！” Mu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood and grimaced like he’d been stabbed where it hurt. He replied, spitefully slowly, “Thank goodness I kicked you out. If we’d kept you in the army and let you get closer to His Highness, were you going to watch him all day with your mind full of unspeakable filth? Disgusting!”

风信惊了：“你为什么要把他赶出军营？！他得罪你了？！” Feng Xin was stunned, “Why did you need to drive him out of the army?! Did he offend you?!” 慕情满脸是血地道：“你忘了国师怎么说他的？他是……” Mu Qing, face full of blood, said, “Did you forget what Guoshi said about him? He’s–” 他没说完，花城又是狠狠一拳送上，“砰”的一声，几乎打歪了他的脸。而慕情吐了一口血，一字一句地道：“幸好把你撵走了，不然留你在军中，让你慢慢靠近太子、整天盯着他脑子里不知想什么龌龊东西吗？那可太恶心了！” He hadn’t finished speaking before Hua Cheng ferociously delivered another fist with a “bam,” practically knocking his face askew. And yet, Mu Qing spat a mouthful of blood and said, word by word, “Fortunately I drove you out, otherwise, what, keep you in the army, allow you to slowly approach the crown prince, staring at him all day long and thinking who knows what filthy things in your head? That would be too sickening!”
