Xiao Jingwen's lips moved, but he couldn't speak. He looked past him and at the young man wrapped in clothes behind Chu Junyao.
When Yan Xi saw him looking at her, she subconsciously lowered her head, grabbed Chu Junyao's sleeve, and her body trembled slightly.
With just one glance, Xiao Jingwen saw fear and terror in him.
A chill surged in from the soles of his feet and spread out, and the flowing blood instantly solidified into ice.
Xiao Jingwen staggered as a huge panic came over him and enveloped him tightly.
His mind was full of "Yan Xi was afraid of him" and "what did he just do".
The next moment, he smiled, and a fishy-sweet taste suddenly surged in his throat.
Yes, he had been going crazy because of Yan Xi for a long time, but tonight he completely lost control because of his words.
He thought about struggling and escaping from the abyss of fear of losing Yanxi.
It was almost successful.
Unfortunately, reality kicked me back hard tonight.
No one could help him.
So it’s better to just rot inside and take root.
With such a creepy smile, Chu Junyao tightly protected the person behind him and stared at him with full vigilance, "Your Highness Prince Jin, what else do you want to do? This is in the Shangshu Mansion, don't even think about doing anything rash!"
Xiao Jingwen ignored him and swallowed the blood in his mouth. He tried his best to control himself and not tremble. He looked at the boy with his head lowered as calmly as possible, "Yanxi, I have one last question for you. Do you have me in your heart? Even if it's just a little bit."
Hearing this, Yan Xi's eyelashes trembled. She slowly raised her head and met those reddish black eyes. She opened her mouth and was about to speak, but Chu Junyao blocked all her sight and interrupted her coldly, "Your Highness Prince Jin, please respect yourself! It's late at night, please return home early to avoid an uneasy night!"
Xiao Jingwen had difficulty breathing and stared at him for a long time. His legs seemed to be filled with lead, so heavy that he couldn't breathe, but he still dragged his body numb with pain step by step towards the window and flew away.
When Yan Xi heard the disappearing footsteps, his eyes became dull. At that moment, he seemed to have become a wooden man, unable to speak, think or move.
Chu Junyao breathed a sigh of relief only after making sure that the person had left. He hurriedly turned back to comfort the bullied boy, but when his eyes fell on his face, his expression froze.
The boy's eyes were empty, but he shed tears silently.
The red marks on the neck are particularly glaring.
Chu Junyao was so distressed that he held the person in his arms tremblingly, and kept comforting her, "It's okay, Yanxi, it's okay, he's gone, you are safe, big brother will protect you, don't be afraid, Yanxi, it's really okay..."
Murong Xing outside found that there was no movement and became anxious. After hesitating for a moment, he pushed the door open and walked in.
Chu Junyao was seen hugging Yan Xi to comfort her, with a sad expression on his face.
Murong Xing hurried over, not knowing where to put her hands. She clenched her fists and then unclenched them. She patted the dazed boy and said softly, "Yanxi, are you hungry? Sister will make you your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, okay?"
Sweet and sour spare ribs...
Yan Xi's eyelashes twitched slightly, and she blinked. She slowly came back to her senses, her pupils focused, and when she saw Murong Xing, her face turned pale and her lips trembled, "Sister Xing'er..."
"I'm here." Murong Xing's eyes suddenly turned red and he choked with sobs.
Yan Xi felt a lump in his throat and looked at Chu Junyao, who was worried. His vision was a little blurry. "Brother, I'm fine. You guys go back and rest. I'm a little sleepy... I want to go to bed early."
"Yanxi..."
"Brother, nothing happened tonight, right?" Yan Xi asked with a smile, pulling the corners of his pale lips.
Chu Junyao and Murong Xing looked at each other and nodded, "Yes."
Yan Xi smiled, "Yeah, so he didn't come. Big brother, don't be angry. I don't blame him, really."
Chu Junyao moved his lips and wanted to say something, but when he saw the boy who was not sure whether he was laughing or crying, he finally nodded.
