After Jiang Jinning finished speaking, he didn't even dare to look at the expression on the man's face.
She had known him since he rescued her from the water three years ago, but she was grateful to him for saving her. Later, when he helped the government solve many cases, punishing evil and promoting good, she really began to understand him and gradually developed a good impression of him.
She is not the kind of person who falls in love at first sight. Love at first sight is based on appearance, but she likes him because of his character.
"I like you." Jiang Jinning slowly reached out and gently grasped the man's sleeve with his fingertips. "The person in the fake one said a lot of cold words to me before, and I really thought it was you..."
"That wasn't me." Xiao Linghan explained, "I'm sorry, I don't remember much about what happened three years ago."
He had just started to be self-reliant three years ago, and indeed he had done a lot of things and saved many people.
He originally thought that she had a crush on him because he had cut off Shen Junze's beard, but he didn't expect that the reason she liked him started three years ago.
Although both are acts of heroes saving beauties, they seem different.
"Then you..." Jiang Jinning mustered up the courage to look up at him, "Do you like me?"
Their eyes met, and Xiao Linghan met the slightly red corners of her eyes.
Did she cry?
"I..." Under the girl's burning gaze, Xiao Linghan felt more nervous than ever before. His ears turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, his heart beat faster, and he didn't know what to say.
He has never liked anyone and has no idea what it feels like to like someone.
Jiang Jinning looked at his red face and flustered expression. During the days they had been together, he had always been calm and there had never been any other emotions on his face.
This was also the first time she saw him like this.
He seems to be cuter like this.
"I'm sorry, you have the right to know. I didn't want to hide anything from you." Xiao Linghan suddenly apologized, looking away. "My initial approach to you wasn't pure either. You can understand it as a way to prevent you from meeting the other 'key'. Do you still like me?"
Jiang Jinning thought for a moment and said, "You said before that I met another 'key' that could open the door to the treasure, but there was no treasure inside, but disaster. So aren't you doing a good deed?"
Xiao Linghan was a little surprised when he heard her words, "Aren't you... angry? I approached you with premeditated intention..."
"Why should I be angry?" Jiang Jinning lowered his head and whispered to himself, "I already have impure feelings towards you. Isn't your behavior like offering it to me?"
Xiao Linghan: "What?"
"Nothing... nothing." Jiang Jinning immediately changed his tone. "What about you? If you don't like me, why do you have to explain so much to me? Then the person who pretended to be you said those things to me, wasn't it just to help you get rid of me? Why do you still have to explain to me?"
"Are you worried about being misunderstood by me, or are you afraid that I will be with another 'Key'?" Jiang Jinning asked.
Xiao Linghan pursed his lips, met the girl's eyes that were filled with him, and then blushed and whispered, "I'm afraid you'll misunderstand me."
"So do you like me?"
Xiao Linghan: "I..."
Can he like her?
Just as her sister said, their family was destined to be cannon fodder with a short life. If they couldn't change their family's fate, then if she was with him...
Jiang Jinning looked at the man's hesitant appearance and was obviously annoyed by his behavior.
"Go away." Jiang Jinning shook off his sleeves angrily.
Seeing the girl turn around angrily, Xiao Linghan immediately reached out and grabbed her wrist, "No...that's not what I meant."
He was quite strong, and it hurt a little when he grabbed her wrist.
Jiang Jinning's eyes fell on the man's hand that was tightly gripping her wrist. Noticing her gaze, Xiao Linghan quickly loosened his grip and said, "Jiang Jinning, the risk of being with me is greater than you imagine. You have to promise me that in the future...if anything happens to me, you must leave me without looking back and embark on a new life. Can you do this?"
I don't like people sacrificing for me. If you like me, then live well!"
"Let me see what Seventh Brother is doing?" With the help of System Xuanqi, Wanwan climbed onto the wall of the yard and craned her neck to look inside.
Unfortunately, the windows and doors were closed, so she couldn't see what was going on in the house at all.
Especially since there is a servant guarding the door outside.
Wanwan whispered, "Where is Seventh Brother? Is he in Sister Jiang's room?"
Just as Wanwan finished speaking, she saw a tightly closed window being opened from the inside, and her seventh brother's stealthy figure climbed in through the window.
Seeing this, Wanwan immediately waved to the man.
[Seventh Brother, Seventh Brother, Seventh Brother, Here]
Xiao Linghan suddenly heard his sister's inner voice. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw the small ball lying on the wall.
Xiao Linghan quickly climbed up and asked in a low voice, "Why did you get up here by yourself?"
"It's the Xuanqi Gang..." Before Wanwan finished her words, her eyes suddenly fell on her seventh brother's face.
The next second, under the darkness, Xiao Linghan suddenly saw his sister grinning. The smile startled him, "Sister, what...what's wrong?"
Wanwan smiled and shook her head, "Nothing, Seventh Brother, you are so handsome."
[Wow, there's such a big lip mark on the right cheek, it must have been kissed by Sister Jiang, tsk tsk tsk tsk]
Lip balm?
Hearing this, Xiao Linghan suddenly thought of something. He reached out and touched his right cheek, and sure enough, a little red appeared on his fingertips.
Looking at the little kid's smirking mouth, Xiao Linghan blushed and wiped off the mark on his face.
He originally wanted to explain to his sister that it was Aning who kissed him when he wasn't paying attention.
He and she made three rules: for a period of one year, they would only talk and not do anything that crossed the line.
If they cannot change the fate of their family members who will die young, then after his death, it will not stop her from marrying someone else.
"I just asked Aning. Her father didn't object to her liking anyone before and never interfered with her. But since the day before yesterday, for some unknown reason, he suddenly changed his attitude."
Wanwan: "That's most likely the system's fault."
[Xuan Qi: The system can't completely change people's minds. He must have used some method to make Mr. Jiang think that Jiang Jinning must be with Song Yi, who is impersonated by Shen Junze.]
[Wanwan: What method did that bad system use? ]
Xuanqi found it out in a short while.
[Xuan Qi: Found it. He pretended to be Mr. Jiang's deceased wife and entered Mr. Jiang's dream.]
【Wanwan: Into a dream?】
