Yang Han was furious and very strong. Cheng Zi, who was pushed to the ground, was in so much pain that tears came out of his eyes. He groaned but did not cry out loud. He still said to Yang Han stubbornly, "Brother Ci will never marry you."
Shen Ci immediately helped Chengzi up, gestured, and asked if he was okay, then glared at Yang Han.
[Go away, I won't marry you, and I won't make any deals with you again!]
The little guys in the dilapidated temple are a thorn in Shen Ci's side. He will never allow anyone to hurt them, especially Yang Han, who has ulterior motives.
Yang Han was furious. She didn't expect Shen Ci to reject her just for a little beggar.
"Okay, Shen Ci, I'll wait for the day when you come to beg me." She was unwilling before, but as long as she wanted, she had hundreds of ways to make Shen Ci cry and beg her. By then, she would not be so easy to talk to.
The sinister look in Yang Han's eyes before she left made Shen Ci frown.
Perhaps, he shouldn't have cooperated with Yang Han from the beginning.
"Brother Ci."
A voice called from the side, and Orange pulled his sleeve.
He said, "Brother Ci, we just want you to be by our side. Don't marry that old woman. She's not a good person."
Orange understood what the old woman said, which was why he was so angry.
"Yes, Brother Ci, don't listen to that bad guy. We don't want you to marry her, and we don't want you to leave." Other children also ran out of the dilapidated temple. They obviously heard what was said just now.
Shen Ci hugged them.
【Don't worry, Brother Ci won't leave you. 】
After getting Shen Ci’s assurance, the little guys breathed a sigh of relief.
-
That afternoon, Qing'er came to the dilapidated temple again.
Chen Ci is not here. It is said that he went to the bookstore.
Qing'er stayed in the dilapidated temple, chatting with the little ones while waiting for Shen Ci to come back.
From what the Oranges said, they soon learned that Yang Han was looking for Shen Ci.
"That person is very old and very mean. She actually wants Brother Ci to marry her."
"She was very fierce, she pushed the orange to the ground and her eyes were scary."
“…”
The little ones were indignant and obviously disliked the man.
Qing'er frowned and his face suddenly turned cold. He didn't expect that there would be such a shameless old woman who would actually set her sights on his brother.
Chen Ci's face is actually similar to his, both are beautiful and gorgeous. It is precisely because of this appearance that Qing'er became the most beautiful girl in Chunmanyuan.
Now, Shen Ci's facial features have grown and become more and more handsome. In addition, he is now in a dilapidated temple. Everyone knows that he has no background and is an object that can be bullied. In this case, such a beautiful face will definitely attract the covetousness of those with ulterior motives.
If they come openly, it's easy to deal with, but if they do it in a shady way.
For a moment, Qing'er was so impulsive that she wanted to acknowledge Chen Ci immediately and take him under her protective wings.
Compared to his previous self in Chunmanyuan, he is now able to protect his younger brother.
Qing'er didn't know how long she had been thinking and struggling until a voice came from outside the dilapidated temple.
As soon as Shen Ci returned and saw the familiar carriage outside the dilapidated temple, he was slightly surprised, and then he was wrapped in joy.
Is it Brother Qing'er who is here again?
Shen Ci couldn't wait to run in, and sure enough, he saw the familiar boy sitting on the straw, talking with Chengzi and the others.
Qing'er also happened to look up and saw Shen Ci.
Shen Ci went to the bookstore, holding a stack of paper and ink sticks in his hand.
[You're here.] Chen Ci's eyes were bright, as if inlaid with stars, and the corners of his lips unconsciously curled up, and thousands of words turned into one sentence: "You're here."
“Well, I came to see you for something.” Qing’er stood up and took the things from Shen Ci’s hand.
Qing'er could tell that the paper was the roughest kind, and the ink stick was the cheapest. For Chen Ci and his friends with their living standards, using paper was already a luxury.
If it weren't for writing a storybook, Chen Ci probably wouldn't have bought pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Even when writing a storybook, Chen Ci would think twice every time, trying to write better without scribbling or making any changes, so as to save paper.
Qing'er felt a little sad in his heart as his fingertips rubbed the rough paper. After they recognized each other, he would definitely buy the best for his brother.
Chengzi thoughtfully handed Shen Ci some water.
Qing'er saw sweat on Chen Ci's forehead and took out a handkerchief to wipe it for him.
Feeling Qing'er's gentle movements, Shen Ci was stunned and a little embarrassed, but his heart was as sweet as if it was filled with honey.
Sometimes he always had the illusion that Qing'er was his brother.
Qing'er is so nice to him.
It would be great if Qing'er was really his brother.
But he knew that this was impossible.
He is just a wandering orphan.
Brother Qing'er and the other people in Yipinzhai lived a happy life.
Suppressing the disappointment in his eyes, Shen Ci took the handkerchief and sorted out his emotions.
I'll do it myself.
Qing'er let go and let him do it.
Only after they sat down did Shen Ci ask, "You just said you had something to talk to me about?"
"Let's not talk about this for now. I heard from Chengzi that someone was causing trouble for you this morning? Who was that person?" Qing'er had to find out who was coveting his brother.
Shen Ci quickly understood that Chengzi had told Qing'er about what happened with Yang Han in the morning.
[Yes, it's the person who bought the storybook from me before. But don't worry, I won't marry her.] He knew that Qing'er definitely didn't want him to marry someone like Yang Han.
After listening to Chengzi's translation, Qing'er immediately grasped the word.
"You said that person this morning was the one who bought the storybook from you earlier?"
Shen Ci nodded.
This time, Qing'er could no longer suppress his anger. He stood up suddenly and paced back and forth in the dilapidated temple. He usually did not show his emotions, but now he started cursing.
"I knew that person had bad intentions. And really, to be able to do such things as defraud others and plagiarize other people's stories, how good can her character be?"
"A woman in her fifties, who sold her husband and became obsessed with beauty, married two young maids. She still hasn't changed her lustful nature. It seems she really needs a lesson."
Qing'er couldn't suppress the breath in her chest no matter what she did.
In fact, he had seen many people of this type when he was in Chunmanyuan, and he hated this kind of people the most.
[Don't be angry, I won't marry her. I promise.] Shen Ci didn't expect Qing'er to be so angry about this. He felt both amused and happy.
It's really nice to have someone who cares about you like this.
Before it was Chengzi and the others, now it’s Brother Qing’er.
[By the way, Brother Qing'er, you just said you had something to talk to me about. What is it?] Afraid that Qing'er would continue to be angry, Shen Ci hurriedly changed the subject.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Qing'er's anger intensified, with a hint of hostility in her.
