"Yan Yan..."
"It's nothing." Zhong Yan's expression stiffened when she saw Bai Xi acting coquettishly, but she changed the subject after all. Oh well, there's nothing to be angry about! Besides, even if she were angry, what could she do?
We can't exactly drag the Teng Snake out and beat it up!
Of course, it's not that she thinks it's wrong to fight.
I just feel that if we pull out the Tengshe now, Jiang Xiaochen might not be a match for him, and that would be awkward.
Besides...
She has her own ideas too!
Jiang Xiaochen frowned, his mood not very pleasant. What did she mean by this? It seemed like she was trying to hide something from him. Did he have absolutely no trust in her?
Otherwise, how could she be in this state?
Realizing this, he suddenly felt terrible!
Clearly, this version of Zhong Yan made him feel somewhat unfamiliar, uncomfortable, and even uneasy.
"Yan Yan, you said you wouldn't hide it from me."
"yes."
"and you……"
"Uh, I don't know what to say! It's all because of this broken stone, otherwise I would still be sleeping at home right now." Zhong Yan said awkwardly, "How about I just give this stone to you?"
"You said that?!" Jiang Xiaochen stared at her suspiciously for a long time before finally nodding. "Since you put it that way, then I'll take it. However, something like this can't happen again!"
He knew very well that this was Zhong Yan's way of giving him a concession because she didn't want him to keep asking.
However, since she put it that way, he certainly wouldn't object!
Looking at Bai Xi again, her face was gloomy, as if she was about to burst into tears at any moment. Her posture clearly showed that she was very uneasy and wanted to cry.
Of course, Zhong Yan didn't care much!
In the first place, repaying kindness with ingratitude is not her style.
Now that things have come to this, it's even less likely that they'll agree so easily!
Besides, if it weren't for Bai Xi protecting her just now, would she have kept it from Jiang Xiaochen? Obviously, that's impossible. So, saying anything is pointless!
Bai Xi felt a chill in her heart, knowing that she wouldn't have a good life if she fell into his hands. So she simply slipped inside! At the same time, she made up her mind that no matter what he said, she had to act innocent and pretend that she knew nothing.
No matter how Jiang Xiaochen called her, she wouldn't answer!
Of course, ideals are often grand, but reality is often harsh.
As it turns out, when Jiang Xiaochen really sets his mind to tormenting someone, he's capable of any method! After sending Zhong Yan back, he focused all his attention on the Five-Colored Stone.
If he wasn't mistaken, something must have happened before he arrived. So, what could it be? The person who could make Bai Xi look so utterly hopeless must be someone he knew.
Thinking this, an idea immediately came to mind!
"Get out here!"
"..."
Inside the five-colored stone, all was silent.
No matter how powerful or how much force Jiang Xiaochen exerted, they acted as if they knew nothing, and didn't even give him the most basic response.
It's obvious she's just trying to annoy him!
He gave a cold, smirking smile, seemingly in a rather good mood! Of course, what he was really thinking was a matter of opinion.
hehe……
