Chapter 251: Pleading
So she followed them without even knowing their identities, and she wasn't afraid that they would sell her out.
Lin Baoer was speechless, and had a headache.
She didn't want to care about such a follower, but she couldn't ignore it, especially in such an unfamiliar place. If Jiang Yuzhi was killed by someone, she would probably feel guilty to death.
Lin Zhishen saw through Jiang Yuzhi's inner thoughts and said coldly: "In fact, you don't want to stay in Weicheng, but you don't want to face your parents forcing you to get married. There was the first County Magistrate Wang, and there was the second County Magistrate Li. We helped you this time, but what about next time?"
"So even if you don't know what the future holds, you have to escape from that place."
"It just so happens that our appearance gave you a choice, and you followed us away without caring."
"In the final analysis, you didn't put yourself in our shoes and think about what would happen if we took you with us. You only thought about yourself and deliberately approached us, hoping to seek shelter and leave that suffocating place at the same time."
"Even the argument just now was planned by you."
"You know Bao'er wouldn't have the heart to see you become the target of public criticism, so she deliberately made such a big fuss about that matter to win our sympathy." With
every word Lin Zhishen said, Jiang Yuzhi's face turned paler. In the end, her lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say it and just remained silent.
Lin Bao'er was also shocked and stood there.
She didn't think about those twists and turns, she just felt that Jiang Yuzhi was really persistent and pitiful.
Lin Zhishen narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze shot straight at Jiang Yuzhi, and said directly: "Since you want to know, then I might as well tell you, the place we are going to is Jiang State, another country. From the border to there, we will cross a dangerous desert. The reason why the journey is so long is because the caravan will only set out at a specific time every year. If you miss it, you can only wait for the next time."
"It's because we stayed in Weicheng for too long that we took a boat all the way north to come here, but we are still a step late."
Lin Zhishen seemed not to notice Jiang Yuzhi's expression at all, and continued: "Bringing you with us will not benefit us at all. Not only do we have to take care of your food and drink, but we also have to ensure your safety. Do you think we will accept to bring a trouble with us?"
Jiang Yuzhi's face was pale, and the five fingers of his right hand clenched the corner of his clothes, and he said with difficulty, "I'm sorry... I didn't know..."
"Even if you didn't know, you still followed me regardless, didn't you? With Baoer's sympathy, she definitely didn't want to see you being wronged and bullied alone in these places. Aren't you relying on her kindness that you didn't turn back despite repeated persuasion?"
"Bang."
Jiang Yuzhi suddenly knelt down, scaring Lin Baoer, who quickly jumped aside.
"Miss Jiang, Jiang, there is no need to do this. This is what Ah Shen said. Don't take it to heart..."
"No." Jiang Yuzhi shook her head, her face pale, "What he said is right. I did... approach you with a purpose."
"It was also because I relied on your soft heart that I approached you again and again."
"The quarrel with the shopkeeper just now was also intentional."
At this point, she took a deep breath and raised her head, "But I have never harbored any ill will towards you from the beginning to the end."
"It is precisely because you saved me and the Jiang family that I trust you. When I decided to leave Weicheng, I chose to follow you first."
"But I never thought about whether you needed me to follow you, whether I would cause you trouble, whether I would disturb you."
"This is my fault."
She clenched her fists, her eyes complicated, "But I really... really just want to see the vast world with you. I have been trapped in the city for more than ten years. I am unwilling to be trapped in the backyard for the rest of my life."
"Seeing your high-spirited actions, I realized how envious I am."
"Miss Lin, Mr. Lin, I... I beg you to take me with you. No matter where we go, I am willing. I just want to see that... different world."
Her shoulders trembled slightly. "I also know that I can't go alone, so I follow you shamelessly. Don't worry, I will be responsible for my own food, clothing and expenses, and I will not use, not use your money..."
She was a little anxious. "And safety and so on, if you encounter danger, you don't have to worry about me! Since I have chosen to come out, then life or death is my destiny, and I will never resent you for it."
"If you don't believe it, I can immediately write a handwritten oath to guarantee that even if someone from the Jiang family comes, they will not do anything to you..."
...
Originally, Lin Baoer had to rely on Lin Zhishen to go to Jiang State, so she didn't say anything about it and just gave the choice to Lin Zhishen.
Of course, Lin Zhishen did not answer Jiang Yuzhi in the end.
The sun was setting, and the dusk was gradually approaching. Layers of fiery clouds appeared on the horizon, which was gorgeous and beautiful.
The two were walking on the road. As night fell, the vendors on both sides of the street gradually packed up and prepared to go home, but those beautiful lanterns were put out one by one, lighting up the surrounding roads.
Sniffing the fragrance in the air, Lin Baoer quickly found the wonton stall that was about to be closed, "Boss! I want two bowls of wontons!"
The vendor was naturally very happy that there was still business when the stall was about to be closed. After responding, he happily went to cook wontons.
Sitting on a clean stool, Lin Baoer propped up her chin and stared at Lin Zhishen, who was indifferent, and suddenly said, "Ah Shen, at that time... why did you agree to take me to Jiang Kingdom?"
Lin Zhishen didn't even raise his eyes and wiped the chopsticks in his hand, "Because I know you are not a weak woman."
He said this, and Lin Baoer became interested, "Why do you know that I am not a weak woman? Isn't it obvious enough?"
Facing her questioning, Lin Zhishen was obviously helpless. After thinking for a while, he said seriously: "Although it was the second time we met, I actually saw you a long time ago."
Lin Baoer's heart skipped a beat, and she didn't blink, "You saw me... a long time ago?"
Lin Zhishen met those beautiful eyes and hummed softly, "I only saw you from a distance, you don't know."
"Really?" Lin Baoer was a little disappointed, "Then where did you see me?"
"Qicheng."
Hearing this, Lin Baoer widened her eyes, "Qicheng?!"
She was not unfamiliar with these two words. She once passed by here when she wanted to climb a snowy mountain and caused a big oolong.
Lin Zhishen nodded with a smile, "When I saw that you were so skilled and that you tricked a shop here with just a few words, I felt that you were not an ordinary woman."
