This was the first time she saw Xiao Yunting cry.
The young man pursed his lips, and apart from a slight tremor, there was no extra expression on his face. Even his eyes were empty, as if the darkness that even the night could not melt into.
With just one glance, Ye Lan fell into his overwhelming despair.
The despair in memory is contagious.
A huge sadness surged from the bottom of his heart, and the boy's face never stopped crying.
He seemed to be questioning life, why was it so cruel and unfair to him, and why was it unwilling to leave him even a trace of beauty?
Why?
Why!
The blood in his hand splattered on his face, and he was like a madman, a ruthless executioner.
Ye Lan froze in place. Besides being overwhelmed by this huge sadness, he was also angry in his heart because he knew the truth.
Is this what women want?
What good would it be for her to push Xiao Yunting into desperate situations again and again? If she didn't love him, she could just abandon him. Why would she torture him like this?
If one day he knew that all this was done by his biological mother, how painful it would be...
At this moment, Ye Lan realized that this was the crux of awakening Xiao Yunting.
There is no construction without destruction. Forcing him to face reality can make him wake up.
But……
Ye Lan slowly bent down, picked up a blood-stained knife on the ground, and made a gesture with his left hand.
"The Red Judge of the Dark Flame Order can penetrate the illusion of yin and yang, cut through the cycle of reincarnation, and enter the sea of consciousness."
She walked closer to the boy step by step, the coldness in her eyes was gone, only a willingness to sink into it.
"break."
As soon as she finished speaking, she took a step forward and grabbed Xiao Yunting's hand.
The young man paused, and his fingers, which had become stiff and cold with blood, moved and grasped a warm hand.
"Who are you?" He turned around and saw the girl who broke the reincarnation seal and the memory barrier to come to his side.
A hazy moonlight fell on the girl's jade-white face. Upon hearing this, she raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "I'll help you."
Help you kill people.
The young man was a little confused by her sudden appearance, but he inexplicably had a sense of trust in Ye Lan in his heart, so when a machete flew towards him, he protected the person behind him without hesitation.
The next second, with a clang, the machete was knocked out and directly hit the enemy on the opposite side like a boomerang.
Ye Lan withdrew his hand and said to the boy in surprise, "You can wipe the tears from your face."
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately raised his sleeves to wipe his face, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and his ears turned a little red.
Boys all want to save face, and it is always embarrassing to cry in front of girls.
It was rare for Ye Lan to appreciate this side of him. The corners of his lips curled slightly, and he dodged to stop another subordinate who was in danger.
Xiao Yunting saw that her hand, which he had just held in his palm, was stained with blood. He subconsciously wiped the blood on his hand onto his clothes. When he found that his body was also wet and covered with blood, he frowned unconsciously with some displeasure.
"Holy crap, that's awesome!"
Not far away, the screams of the men came one after another, occasionally mixed with a few whistles, making the cold and bloody night seem to have a touch of warmth and not so much like hell.
Xiao Yunting looked at the girl's thin but neat figure from afar, wondering what she was thinking.
When daybreak came, they finally finished clearing the streets.
Ye Lan and Xiao Yunting sat side by side on the steps in front of a store. The store behind them was still stained with blood, and their men were dragging corpses back and forth and counting them one by one.
"Here, for you."
Ye Lan turned around when he heard the voice and saw the young man handing him a handkerchief.
The handkerchief was as white as new, and it stood out from the mess on the floor.
"Don't you need it?" Ye Lan asked him back.
The boy paused, curled his fingers at his side, and then shook his head. "My hands are too dirty, you use them."
"..." Ye Lan was silent for a moment, then she took his hand and wiped the blood off it bit by bit, just as carefully and seriously as he had treated her before, "You are not dirty."
What's dirty about living?
No one is born clean and lives a beautiful life. Even though he has killed many people, in Ye Lan's eyes, he will never be dirty.
The young man looked at her in surprise, and inadvertently saw a hint of tenderness on her cold and elegant face. His heart suddenly felt warm, and even his ears turned red.
He didn't move, but just let Ye Lan wipe his hands.
One of his men ran over midway, winking fearlessly, "Boss, where did you find this beautiful girl? She's so tough and gentle, she's amazing!"
They stopped on the street laughing and joking. Even though their faces were dirty and their bodies were injured, this neighborhood would be their new home from now on, and this fact made them happy for a long time.
Before Xiao Yunting could say anything, Ye Lan raised her eyebrows slightly and said with an aura that should not be underestimated: "Call me sister-in-law."
Everyone: “…”
With a gulp, everyone swallowed their saliva and dared not make a sound.
Noticing the speechless state of the young man beside him, Ye Lan glanced at him and asked, "Why, you don't want to?"
The tone was just like a mountain king trying to force his wife into his own hands.
Xiao Yunting: "..."
I always feel like there's something wrong with this conversation.
"I always want to know who you are."
Finally, as if afraid that Ye Lan would be unhappy, he looked away, lowered his eyes and whispered this.
Ye Lan smiled, feeling that Xiao Yunting was indescribably cute when he was young. When she lowered her eyes and saw her fingers gradually solidifying into solid objects, a sense of relief appeared between her brows.
"Ye Lan, my name is Ye Lan." She raised her eyes and looked at the boy's neat and clean profile, and said softly: "We will have plenty of time to get to know each other slowly in the future."
