Chapter 79 Why Are You Crying?
"Sister He!"
It's Xiao Jingchi! Why is he here? !
Chen He was shocked, raised his head suddenly, and looked towards the door with tears in his eyes.
Xue Minglan also frowned and turned his head away unhappily.
At the door stood Xiao Jingchi, dressed in brocade clothes.
There was still a hint of anxiety and worry on his face, which was unique to young people.
However, when his eyes fell on the two people hugging each other in the room, especially when he saw Chen He nestled in Xue Minglan's arms with tears on her face, wiping her tears with Xue Minglan's clothes——
The worry on his face froze instantly!
In those eyes that should have been clear and innocent, a trace of light flashed quickly...
Was it shock? Was it astonishment? No, it was more like an icy cold chill!
Although it was only a flash, it was so fast that it almost seemed like an illusion.
But Chen He's heart skipped a beat for no reason!
"Jing Chi?"
Chen He felt as if she was scalded, and suddenly tried to break free from Xue Minglan's arms!
She frantically pushed Xue Minglan away.
Xue Minglan was already unhappy about being interrupted, and now that it was Xiao Jingchi, and seeing Chen He's panicked look, eager to distance herself from the matter...
His eyes darkened!
Want to leave? Throw yourself into the arms of another man right in front of him? Even if the other man is just a fool, no way!
Instead of letting go, he used his arms to push Chen He, who was trying to break free, back into his arms more tightly and domineeringly!
"Let go!" Shen He was embarrassed and anxious, and lowered her voice.
"Don't move!" Xue Minglan's voice was hoarse from the injury, but it revealed an unquestionable strength.
The two pushed and resisted, and Chen He used more force in a hurry.
Just heard a "hiss" sound!
Xue Minglan's clothes, which were already slightly open, were torn open by her pulling!
A large area of white chest covered with scars and poisonous veins was exposed to the air without any cover!
The ferocious purple-black poisonous veins!
A pale pink old scar!
There are also fresh bloodstains that were spread during the struggle!
This picture...
A powerful confrontation! A morbid fragility! And an indescribable ambiguity!
Especially under the gaze of another "fiancé", this is simply a blatant provocation!
Chen He was stunned. Looking at the exposed skin, the blood color on his face instantly faded away, and then suddenly turned red again!
Xue Minglan didn't seem to care.
He didn't even bother to hide it.
Although his chest ached slightly from Shen He's struggle, he felt a tinge of pleasure when he saw Xiao Jingchi's instantly stiff face at the door...
He maintained his disheveled posture while holding Shen He, pretending to realize he had just been interrupted, and shouted angrily at the door:
"Where's Xiao Er?! Where the hell did he go?!"
"How come just any random person can barge into my private room?!"
Outside the door, a young man in a coarse cloth shorts was being stopped by two tall, stern-looking men in plain clothes, with an expression that looked like he was about to cry.
Looking at the two men's positions and aura, you can tell that they are Xiao Jingchi's personal bodyguards!
The waiter heard the angry shouts from inside, shrank his neck, and looked inside.
When he saw the "disheveled" and "entangled" ambiguous scene in the house, his eyes widened, his face turned red, and he looked at a loss.
He stammered and explained helplessly with a crying voice:
"Master... this young master... he insisted on breaking in..."
"Little one...little one can't stop me!"
"He... he has helpers..." The waiter pointed timidly at the two guards who were blocking him.
The waiter claimed that he was innocent of the blame being passed on to him. When gods fight, mortals suffer!
Upon hearing this, Xue Minglan curled up the corner of his mouth into a barely perceptible smile.
He raised his chin lazily and said to the waiter, "Okay, got it."
"It's none of your business. Go down."
The tone was casual yet carried a hint of pride as if he was in control of the situation.
The waiter felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly bowed and withdrew.
Xue Minglan then slowly turned his head, looking at Xiao Jingchi at the door with undisguised provocation and boasting in his eyes.
Xiao Jingchi stood at the door, watching them quietly.
The coldness that had just flashed across those beautiful eyes seemed to have disappeared.
Instead, he felt confused and aggrieved, which was in line with his age and mental state?
He blinked, as if he didn't see Xue Minglan's bare chest and provocative eyes.
His gaze returned to Shen He's red and swollen eyes.
At that moment, something dark seemed to surge again in the depths of his eyes.
But soon, he turned back into that innocent child.
He tilted his head, and with a hint of confusion and worry in his voice, he asked softly:
"Sister He..."
"Why are you crying?"
"Who made Sister He unhappy?"
Chen He just felt his face burning!
She exerted force suddenly, and this time, she finally broke free from Xue Minglan's embrace which was filled with sickly warmth!
If she doesn't break free, she will be burned to death in this strange Shura field!
She staggered back a step, hurriedly tidying up her slightly messy hair and clothes, trying to regain a bit of composure.
Xue Minglan looked at the empty arms, his eyes darkening.
That brief moment of tenderness and dependence was eventually interrupted.
But there was no sign of disappointment on his face.
Instead, it was as if he had completed some kind of prank, with a lazy, playful smile on his face.
He slowly and methodically gathered the collar of his shirt that had been torn open by Chen He.
The movements were casual, even a little careless.
He even raised his eyebrows lazily at Xiao Jingchi who was standing at the door.
Chen He took a deep breath, forced himself to ignore Xue Minglan's almost overflowing malice, and turned to Xiao Jingchi at the door.
She tried to force a relatively gentle smile, although her eyes were still red.
"Jing Chi, how did you find yourself here?"
Xiao Jingchi blinked his big, clear eyes, with just the right amount of worry and a little bit of grievance on his face.
"I heard that Sister He had left the palace, so I wanted to come and play with her."
He pointed at the vaguely visible figure of the guard outside the door.
"But mother was worried and insisted that they follow me, saying that there are many bad people outside."
After saying that, he cautiously glanced at Xue Minglan, who was standing next to him with a leisurely look as if he was watching a show.
He pulled Shen He's sleeve, moved closer, and lowered his voice, just enough for Xue Minglan to hear:
"Sister He, your eyes are red. Did Brother Xue bully you?"
Xue Minglan laughed softly when he heard this.
The laughter was a little hoarse, but full of undisguised bad humor.
He took a step forward and looked at Xiao Jingchi leisurely, his eyes like teasing a little kitten who didn't know the immensity of the world: "Oh, so what?"
He leaned forward slightly, with a morbid sense of oppression, and said in a frivolous and dangerous tone: "I was the one who bullied her. Are you going to stand up for her, Sixth Prince?"
The air seemed to freeze.
Chen He's heart was in his throat!
She was afraid that Xiao Jingchi would really be angered and do something inappropriate!
She turned her head suddenly and glared at Xue Minglan fiercely!
This look carried a warning, shame and anger, and even a kind of madness of "Can you please stop making trouble?"
Xue Minglan met her gaze and the smile on his face deepened.
Chen He didn't have time to pay attention to this man who was only interested in causing chaos in the world. She quickly grabbed Xiao Jingchi's arm and protected him behind her.
She softened her voice and explained hurriedly, "Jing Chi, don't listen to his nonsense! He's just teasing you! Sister is fine, really fine!"
Xiao Jingchi raised his little face, looked at Chen He's anxious expression, then looked at Xue Minglan's asking-for-a-beating look, and a faint cold light flashed across his eyes.
But soon, he returned to his innocent self.
He nodded heavily, as if he really believed what Shen He said.
"Oh, I'm glad Sister He is okay!"
He took advantage of the situation and grabbed Shen He's hand. A bright smile immediately appeared on his face, with the anticipation and excitement of a child: "Then Sister He, can you accompany me to play?"
"I want to go to East Street to buy some candy figurines! The Monkey King one I bought last time was delicious!"
"I still want to see the monkey show! I heard there's a new troupe coming today!"
Chen He was stunned for a moment, and then a huge sense of relief surged in his heart!
She nodded immediately, her tone becoming lighter: "Okay! Sister will take you there right away!"
"Whatever candy figure you want, I'll buy it for you!"
She took Xiao Jingchi's hand and turned around and left almost impatiently, not even bothering to glance at Xue Minglan.
Escape! Now! Immediately!
Xue Minglan stood there, watching the two of them walk away together, especially Chen He's unhesitating gesture, and the smile on his lips finally faded.
He slowly raised his hand and touched the wound on his chest.
He watched the two people disappear at the door, then slowly withdrew his gaze, his eyes dark and unclear.
