"...No." Shi Wuqing's mood was hard to describe: "Don't do anything rash."
"Okay." Jiang Cong's expression was quite regretful.
The Great Devil never read people's expressions. People around him glanced at him vaguely, but he seemed unaware of it. He only focused on looking at Shi Wuqing, thinking one thing at a time, and said expectantly: "Qingqing, you haven't called my name yet!"
Shi Wuqing didn't want to talk to him, and was thinking frantically in her head, when the male protagonist comes, why doesn't Jiang Cong want to make a move on the male protagonist on the spot!
"Qingqing! You are distracted!" Jiang Cong narrowed his eyes in dissatisfaction.
Many people broke out in cold sweats immediately.
Shi's father was among them, and he couldn't help but say, "Qingqing, hurry up and reply to the adults!"
Shi Wuqing thought of Jiang Cong's nickname "Cong Cong"...
She took two steps forward, approached Jiang Cong, and whispered, "I don't want to shout in front of so many people."
Jiang Cong's eyes sparkled, like a big dog waiting for a bone: "Then Qingqing, do you want to shout in private?"
"……Can."
Shi Wuqing's original intention was to ask him to stop making trouble and wait until the birthday party was over, but as soon as she finished speaking, her arm was grabbed by the other party.
The girl looked up blankly.
Jiang Cong happily pulled her to a deserted corner: "Come on, let's go to 'private' now!"
“?” Shi Wuqing.
etc!
Privately, it is waited out, not created! !
"Oh..." Master Shi watched his daughter, the protagonist, being dragged away. However, he couldn't say anything about the culprit and could only utter an awkward syllable while watching.
The others all pretended not to see anything and continued chatting happily.
The big shots in the imperial city are not to be messed with.
But the lively banquet did not last long before a scream broke the harmonious atmosphere!
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, only to see a young lady pointing a trembling hand in a direction:
"monster!"
…
"Okay, it's private now." Jiang Cong curled his lips and waited expectantly.
Shi Wuqing was silent for two seconds, then finally compromised.
She lowered her eyes and said, "...Cong Cong."
Jiang Cong was stunned.
After waiting for a long time without any response, Shi Wuqing couldn't help but secretly glance at the other party.
Then she saw a handsome face with a blush, and those unruly and wild eyes, now hazy as if drunk.
"Qingqing." He called softly, his voice a little dazed.
"Um?"
"Come back to the imperial city with me!" Jiang Cong suddenly said.
Shi Wuqing didn't say anything.
"There are too few things I can give you here. Only things from the Imperial City are worthy of you! When the time comes, I can give you whatever you want!" Jiang Cong's eyes lit up the more he spoke. "My father and mother will definitely love you! You will live in my house from now on, and no one can hurt you! You will live a thousand times better than here!"
"Is the imperial city very big? Bigger than ebony?" Shi Wuqing looked up.
Ebony is the name of this small town.
"It's huge. The central street of the imperial city alone is three times the size of ebony trees! Qingqing, the world over there is ten thousand times more wonderful than ebony trees!"
"Then why did you come here?" She followed his voice and fell into fantasy, but soon asked in confusion.
Jiang Cong told the truth indifferently: "I heard there might be monsters here, so I wanted to come and take a look."
"Monster?" The girl's expression changed slightly.
Jiang Cong thought he had frightened her and quickly said, "It's just a rumor, it may not be true! Don't be afraid, even if it is true, I will protect you!"
The two were standing by the river at the moment, the clear water stirred up ripples, and their reflections were swaying gently in the ripples.
"Okay... tell me about monsters." The girl was much more interested in monsters than the imperial city.
Jiang Cong told her in detail what he knew: "Monsters do exist. They are cruel, cunning, violent, and like to kill. The prototypes of monsters are plants and animals, but not all monsters are transformed through cultivation. Some monsters are humans who were assimilated by monsters in cruel ways..."
"But Qingqing doesn't have to worry about encountering monsters, because monsters are rare. And there is a profession in the world called monster catcher, whose job is to kill monsters."
After Jiang Cong finished speaking, he looked expectantly at the thoughtful girl, hoping to see a look of admiration on her face.
And he saw it as he wished. Shi Wuqing raised his face and said seriously: "You know a lot."
His heartbeat was a little fast, but Jiang Cong pretended to be relaxed and said with a casual smile: "It's just so-so. If Qingqing is curious, I'll ask them to catch a monster when I get back and show it to you up close."
Although Jiang Cong said this, he also knew that monsters were hard to find and even harder to catch, so he planned to take it slowly. However, he didn't expect that just after he finished speaking, a scream came from the banquet:
"Monster! There's a monster!"
