Chapter 133 [VIP] Lifesaver (20)
After hearing what Jin Lili said, Xiao Feihe suddenly felt a little grateful towards this former rival.
He rushed into the house impatiently and went straight to the room where Yanyan was sleeping. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the black hair scattered on the bed.
Just one glance and Xiao Feihe felt an indescribable sadness in his heart and almost wanted to cry.
She lay weakly on the bed with her eyes slightly closed. However, in just two days, she looked much thinner. Her chin became pointed and her face was very pale. She lay unconscious and quietly on the bed.
For a moment, he even had the illusion that the person on the bed had left him.
Xiao Feihe subconsciously moved forward a few steps, almost unable to stand steadily. His eyes were slightly red, and he accidentally knelt to move to the bedside, then carefully held the soft palm, and called her name with affection and heartache.
"Yanyan, I'm here..."
He spoke in a very soft, hoarse voice, with a hint of guilt in his voice. He was afraid that he would disturb her, but he was also afraid that she would fall asleep like this and refuse to wake up.
Xiao Feihe gently held her palm and placed it on her cheek, wanting to reach out and touch her face, but he paused subconsciously when he saw the messy scratches on his fingers, then reached out and removed the hair stuck to her cheek, "I'm here to apologize to you, I'm sorry..."
Xiao Feihe's tears overflowed from his eyes unconsciously. His cheek was pressed tightly against the back of her hand, and his voice became more and more choked and hoarse, "Aren't you calling my name? I'm here, I'm here to see you, Yanyan..."
"It's all my fault. It's me who made you look like this and made you suffer so much."
"I am so bad. I really deserve to die. I deceived you with this matter for so long. Can you please get up and beat me, scold me and teach me a lesson?"
"I really know I was wrong, Yanyan, I am sorry for you, can you please get up and look at me..."
Xiao Feihe kept apologizing and begging, his voice full of pain and heartache. He would rather be the one to suffer, but why shouldn't he suffer this?
Xiao Feihe's tears flowed silently. He held her hand and knelt beside the bed, constantly confessing his sins. He looked at Nan Yan's sleeping face with compassion, not wanting to miss any of her reactions.
I don't know how much time had passed, so long that Xiao Feihe's throat had become hoarse and dry to the point of pain, and his knees had become numb to the point of losing feeling as he knelt on the ground.
He seemed to notice vaguely that the fingers in his palm were trembled slightly.
Xiao Feihe was startled at first, then he looked up subconsciously.
The person on the bed seemed to be sleeping uneasily, with her brows slightly furrowed and her eyelashes still trembling slightly. Xiao Feihe called her softly a few times, and after a while, the person below finally slowly opened her eyes.
The moment she regained consciousness, Nan Yan's first reaction was that her mouth was too bitter, so bitter that she couldn't bear it. She didn't know how many bowls of bitter medicine the hero had fed her during the time she was unconscious. Even now that she woke up, it was still so bitter that it made her headache.
Nan Yan coughed a few times, feeling the bitterness and hoarseness in her throat, and subconsciously shouted, "Water..."
The sound was so faint that it was inaudible, as if he would lose consciousness in the next second and fall into coma again.
However, the person guarding the bed rushed out immediately after hearing the sound. He ran so fast that he almost forgot that his legs were still numb. He staggered a few steps accidentally and almost hit the table and chairs and fell down. Fortunately, he stabilized.
"Okay, you want some water? It's coming soon, wait a minute." He said, and hurriedly poured a cup of warm tea from the table outside, then rushed back at a very fast speed, holding the teacup in one hand, and carefully lifted the person lying on the bed with the other hand, leaning on his shoulder,
"Come, Yanyan, drink some water."
He passed the teacup to the person's mouth and watched her sip it. His heart seemed to soften into a pool of warm water. Only at this moment did he finally breathe a sigh of relief. She finally woke up.
When Nan Yan finished her cup of tea, the man leaning against her immediately asked in a low voice, "Is that enough? Do you want to drink some more? You've been in a coma for two days and have had a fever for a long time. It's normal to be thirsty. Can I pour you another cup?"
After drinking the tea, Nan Yan's mouth finally stopped being bitter, and her throat was no longer dry and hoarse, so she immediately started to turn hostile.
As soon as Xiao Feihe finished speaking, the person he was leaning on stiffened, as if he had just realized who he was, and as if he had just remembered what happened that day.
Then her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly moved her body away, unwilling to lean on him anymore.
Xiao Feihe's eyes suddenly became dim.
Nan Yan pursed her lips and turned her face away. She closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them again. A hint of mockery suddenly appeared on her pale face. She asked in a hoarse voice, "What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you? Don't come to me again from now on. Don't make me hate you more and more."
She was too weak to even say this.
Her lips, which had finally regained their rosy color, turned pale again when she woke up and saw him.
Xiao Feihe remained silent, his eyes falling on her eyebrows and eyes. Especially when he saw the annoyance hidden in her eyebrows and eyes, his chest trembled slightly for a moment.
He opened his mouth, and thinking of what he had done, his fingers curled up uncontrollably, and then he said with difficulty, "I... I want to see you..."
It is always harder to face a sleeping person than an awake person, especially when looking at a look of disgust and annoyance. Xiao Feihe had never felt before that a person's eyes could be so unbearable, as if he was suffocating.
Nan Yan's eyes were moistened slightly when she heard this, but she still sneered and said, "Now that you have seen it, you can get out of here."
It was an almost unconditional rejection.
Xiao Feihe's breathing was slightly choked for a moment. He looked at the person in front of him, with an extremely uncomfortable emotion surging in his chest. It seemed that he had expected this result, but Xiao Feihe still refused to give up.
He took a deep breath, then reached out and gently held her hand, placing it against his chest. "I'm sorry, I really know I was wrong. I deceived you and hurt you, but my feelings for you are all real. I really like you. Yanyan, can you give me another chance and forgive me?"
Nan Yan couldn't stand it any longer. She pushed his hand away and turned to stare at him with tears in her eyes. "Forgive you? How can I forgive you?"
"Just because you like me, you don't mind all my lies?"
Nan Yan's tears fell, and her dark eyes suddenly looked at him steadily, "But what if you didn't like me? Have you ever thought about what would happen if things went the other way? If you didn't like me, what would happen if you deceived me? Have you ever thought about this?"
When he heard this, Xiao Feihe was suddenly stunned for a moment, and a very strange thought popped up in his mind.
How could he... not like her?
No, there won't be such a result.
This inexplicable possibility made him feel a chill in his heart, but for some reason, his brain subconsciously imagined what he would do if he had not fallen in love with her?
He might deceive her feelings, withdraw suddenly at the moment when she was most expectant and happy, and then leave her alone to face the rumors...
That kind of result won't happen. It's impossible!
Xiao Feihe's breathing stopped for a moment, his eyes turned red, and suddenly an unprecedented pain appeared in his eyes, making him almost unable to hold back and scream out the pain in his heart.
No, he would never do such a thing to her!
He liked her, how could he do such a vicious thing to her?
But no matter how hard he tried to deny it, he still had that thought in his mind: if there was such a possibility, if he really didn't like Yanyan, the harm he would have done to her would be at least a hundred times worse than it was now.
When he thought of this possibility, Xiao Feihe's face turned pale instantly. He felt the pain in his chest seemed to become more intense, so painful that even cold sweat broke out on his forehead. At this moment, he was extremely grateful. Fortunately, he loved her, and fortunately, he would not do those disgusting things to her.
Nan Yan paused for a moment, tears streaming down her face, and then continued,
"Have you ever thought about how desperate and broken I would be, and how far I would fall? Why can you let me forgive you so easily? What do you think of me? A woman who can be toyed with at will?"
The hot tears splashed on his fingers, burning them and causing them to tremble. He uncontrollably let go of her fingers. He subconsciously retorted,
"No, no, it's not like that..."
"Yanyan, I won't do that to you."
Xiao Feihe's tears immediately came out, his expression became tense, his fingers trembled as he held her hand, his lips quivering, "Believe me, I won't treat you like that, I really like you, Yanyan, I know you are still angry, and I also know you hate me for deceiving you and hiding things from you..."
"You can beat me, kill me, or teach me a lesson in any way you want. As long as I stop thinking about these unpleasant things and make you feel better, I will do anything you ask me to do."
Nan Yan curled her fingers and pulled them out of his palm. Then she looked up and met those red eyes. Suddenly, she said with resentment, "Can I let you die?"
Xiao Feihe's face turned slightly pale.
After being stunned for a long time, he suddenly couldn't help laughing, then reached out and hugged the person tightly into his arms, and his tone became particularly serious, "As long as you ask me to do something, I am willing to do it."
"But I can't die now..."
There was a look of reluctance in Xiao Feihe's eyes.
He couldn't bear to hand her over to someone else like this, couldn't bear to die with regrets like this, from now on he would never see her again, never hear her laughter again, and that proud and arrogant voice when she called his name, he was really reluctant.
Nan Yan seemed stunned by his serious attitude. She was held by him for a long time before she reacted. Then she pushed him away and said coldly,
"Get out of here and don't touch me!"
Perhaps he had anticipated this result, Xiao Feihe was more mature and calm than he had imagined. He let go of her reluctantly, and when he saw Yanyan's cold face and her pale lips, he suddenly smiled softly, and then whispered, "You just woke up, you must be a little hungry, I'll go to the kitchen to get you something to eat, okay?"
Nan Yan bit her lip and glanced at him, thinking, "Why don't you go quickly? Don't you know that she has been lying in bed for two days?" If she doesn't go and get some delicious food to offer to the five dirty temples, she is afraid that she will faint from hunger again.
But she still had that look of disgust on her face, turned her head away without even looking at him, and then said coldly, "Get out, I won't eat anything you cook."
Hearing this, Xiao Feihe was not angry, and there was even a hint of a smile on his face. He quickly rolled up his sleeves, turned around, lifted the curtain, and went to the kitchen.
Xiao Feihe's movements were indeed very quick. In just a moment, he brought over some light side dishes and a bowl of steaming white porridge. Afraid that she would have a tasteless mouth, he even prepared some hawthorn pills to whet her appetite.
"Yanyan, I'll prepare something for you..."
Unfortunately, just as he reached the door, he heard voices coming from inside the house. Before the conversation was finished, as soon as he entered the room, he saw a close and warm scene of two people in the room.
"Drink some soup first. You've been sleeping for two days and your stomach is empty. You can't eat greasy food for the time being. I asked the kitchen to make porridge for you."
"Come on, drink slowly, don't choke."
Jin Lili was sitting beside the bed, feeding her soup carefully and patiently. He saw Nan Yan leaning on the edge of the bed, sipping it in small sips. Her face was a little red due to the heat, and she seemed to be more energetic.
Jin Li wiped the corners of her mouth from time to time, and Nan Yan's face was also moved.
Looking at the close intimacy between the two, Xiao Feihe suddenly felt like he was a completely outsider, as if it was impossible to interfere in the relationship between the two, which made him inexplicably flustered and uneasy.
Xiao Feihe knew that she was still angry. It was all his fault. He deserved to be in this situation.
He subconsciously took a few steps forward with the plate in his hand. Nan Yan glanced at him with her peripheral vision, and just one glance made him stop in his tracks. The alienation and deliberateness in her eyes were so obvious, as if it would be a bother to look at her one more time. Even if Xiao Feihe could endure it, he felt a little breathless at this moment.
His fingers unconsciously clenched the plate.
How can I make her forgive him?
He took a deep breath, suppressed all the uncomfortable emotions in his chest, and then walked over attentively and carefully, "Yan Yan, do you want to eat something else?"
He smiled ingratiatingly at her.
Nan Yan didn't even raise her eyelids, "Do you want to kill me?"
Xiao Feihe froze for a moment, and quickly put down what he was holding, explaining anxiously, "How could that be? That's not what I meant. It's okay if you don't want to eat it. I'll make you something else later, okay?"
Nan Yan turned away, not wanting to pay any attention to him.
The person who didn't get a response was obviously a little anxious. Xiao Feihe took a step back uncomfortably and sat aside, but his eyes refused to move away and kept staring at the two of them. He didn't mean to punish himself but just couldn't bear to do so.
Jin Lili never thought that one day he would feel happy and satisfied because she deliberately took advantage of him.
He knew that she was doing it on purpose, pretending to be angry so that she would let him get closer to her, but even if it was just this kind of use, he felt satisfied.
He took care of her and coaxed her for two whole days, but no matter how he coaxed her, the sleeping person was unwilling to wake up. But when Xiao Feihe came, no matter how angry she was, she finally woke up.
From that moment on, he knew he had completely lost and she didn't love him at all.
But what can he do? He had brought all this upon himself. As long as she was still willing to be close to him, and still willing for him to continue to accompany her and guard her, he was willing to wait, no matter how long it took, until the day she was moved.
After eating a small bowl of white porridge, Nan Yan finally recovered a lot of her spirits. However, she felt sore all over after lying in bed for two days. She wanted to take a walk, but Jin Lili stopped her.
He said that she was not well yet and would definitely catch a cold if she went out in the fresh air. If she felt unwell, she could ask the maid to massage her, or he could help her.
Nan Yan refused the man's attempt to take advantage of her and turned her head to look at the good weather outside. How could she feel cold in such warm sunshine?
However, this man was very stubborn. Although Nan Yan had broken this stubborn character beyond recognition, when it came to physical matters, Nan Yan still couldn't convince him. What she said was not right, and in the end she could only look at him with a hint of desire in her eyes.
Probably because he had been sick for two days, his eyes were watery and a little pitiful when he stared at people, which made Jin Lili's heart soften for a while. After he was conflicted for a while, he finally compromised helplessly.
Jin Lili sighed. He really had no idea what to do with the man in front of him. "If you really want to, it's okay, but can you just walk around in the yard?"
Nan Yan immediately nodded in agreement.
Therefore, Jin Linli did a very good job of protecting the man. He completely wrapped the man with a thick cloak, leaving only his head exposed. He touched the man's palm and was relieved after confirming that it was warm. Then he led the man to the yard.
During the whole process, Xiao Feihe watched from the side. He opened his mouth but found that he couldn't say a word.
He also wanted to go forward to help, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was pinned to the spot by Nan Yan's cold gaze, unable to move.
Although the sun was shining brightly outside, he felt as if a cold wind had inexplicably blew up in his heart, getting colder and colder, so cold that his limbs became a little stiff. He wanted to follow her but was afraid that she would dislike him, so he just stared at the two of them stubbornly.
Nan Yan glanced at Xiao Feihe standing stiffly not far behind her. Hmm, can't you bear this? No, I still have some tricks left.
Jin Lili led her into the yard.
Nan Yan frowned slightly. Seeing that the person behind her didn't catch up, she seemed a little concerned. She kept looking behind her vaguely, and a hint of depression appeared on her face.
She took a step forward, and she didn't know if she did it on purpose or accidentally twisted her body. She was about to fall forward. Fortunately, Jin Lili beside her reacted very quickly, hugged her into his arms, and then pinched her fingers and asked, "Why are you so absent-minded? Didn't you say you wanted to go out for a walk? You fell down after taking two steps. Why don't you just let me hold you and walk with you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Yan saw the corner of the clothes fluttering behind the door out of the corner of her eye. Before the man in his arms let go of her, she suddenly moved over and kissed him lightly on the lips, like a dragonfly touching the water and retreating immediately.
When she was about to withdraw from his arms, someone suddenly grabbed her waist. Jin Lili's breathing stagnated and his palm pressed hard on the back of her waist.
This caught Nan Yan off guard for a moment, and her whole body hit his chest, but she also knew that what she did was wrong, so she lowered her head and did not dare to look at anyone.
Jin Lili's eyes were complicated and gloomy.
He took a deep breath, then reached out and pressed her against the tree trunk. His slender fingers suddenly pinched her chin, then lifted her up and said to her, "This won't work. You kissed too shallowly. He knows you did it on purpose."
The person in front of him lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Jin Lili continued, "You want to make him angry, want to make him suffer, want to make him regret it, right? But this is too light, not enough, how can it be done all at once? Can I help you?"
Nan Yan stared at the person in a daze.
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for the people below to react, and kissed her recklessly. At that moment, Jin Linli's chest felt like it was filled with something, sore and swollen. The more he liked her, the more painful it was. He really hadn't seen her like this in a long time. The person in his arms was so quiet and contented. He was a little repulsive at first, but he knew that there was no struggle in the end.
Jin Xinli's breathing was rapid, and there seemed to be a layer of mist in his eyes. He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. His heart was beating fast in his chest. He kissed this person so hard, over and over again, kissing along the corners of her lips, as if he wanted to stuff the person into his body. In the end, as he kissed, tears flowed uncontrollably.
He suddenly felt that he was very pathetic. He had to resort to such means to get close to her, but he was willing to be used by her.
When they separated, Jin Lili's body was so hot that even his forehead was covered with sweat. He panted, then lowered his head and kissed the skin beside her ear with his lips, and whispered hoarsely in her ear,
"Only in this way will he be as sad as I am."
Warm tears rolled down her face and sank into her neck, accidentally wetting the long hair at her neck. Jin Lili took the hair away and looked at her reluctantly.
On the other side, Xiao Feihe looked at the two people kissing passionately not far away.
At that moment, he froze, and then an emotion called jealousy quickly surged in his mind, causing him to almost lose control of himself and rush forward to pull the two people apart.
He was so stimulated that he could even feel the blood vessels in his head roaring wildly, and his eyes turned red in an instant.
No! Don't do this to him!
Please, Yanyan, don't do this...
He would rather she beat him, scold him, or kill him than have this kind of outcome. He couldn't stand it, he really couldn't accept it.
He knew he was wrong. He shouldn't have lied to her, and he shouldn't have been flirting with Li Qingrou in Li's house. He really knew he was wrong. Please, don't treat him like this, okay?
At this moment, Xiao Feihe finally understood how Jin Xinli felt when he saw Nan Yan being held in his arms and kissed in the villa.
The crazy jealousy, resentment and anger burned him to the point where he lost all reason. He even felt an uncontrollable murderous urge in his heart, and he wanted to rush up and kill the man who had molested her.
But it was no use. Xiao Feihe clenched his fingers so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh.
He tried hard to suppress the emotions that were about to collapse in his body. The little bit of rationality left in his mind told him that he must never do anything to hurt her again and must never make her sad again.
But what to do? Seeing her being so intimate with another man, he was really going crazy.
He really couldn't accept it...
Yanyan...
On the other side, Nan Yan glanced at the effect of this weapon and nodded secretly in her heart.
She then adjusted her mood, a guilty look appeared on her face, and then she pushed the man in front of her away and threw him away after using him.
"S-Sorry...I actually..."
Jin Lili seemed to have anticipated her reaction. He reached out and rubbed her head. He smiled and said, "I know. I volunteered."
Nan Yan pursed her lips, her fingers unconsciously tightened her sleeves, and then looked at him with a somewhat embarrassed expression, "I shouldn't treat you like this. How is my use of you any different from his deceiving me?"
"Don't try to coax me. I'm sorry, Jin Lili. You can scold me or hit me. You've been so good to me, saving me and taking care of me day and night, but I've turned my back on you and bullied you. I'm really sorry for you."
Jin Lili just felt that his life was completely ruined by her. No matter whether she loved him sincerely or used him as a tool, his life was like this. No matter what, he had to protect her.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but chuckle, and his fingers touched her lips lovingly.
There were still the traces he had just left there, and this alone was enough to satisfy him.
"You are so timid, what are you talking about to make him regret and suffer? Are you afraid just now? Or are you heartbroken? Do you feel bad when you see him sad?"
Nan Yan turned her face away and said in a muffled voice, "I didn't."
Jin Xinli looked at her hypocritical expression and suddenly couldn't help feeling sad.
As expected, he confirmed it again and again. No matter how unwilling he was, there was no possibility for him and her to be together in this life.
Jin Lili couldn't help but hold the person in his arms, whispering, "If you don't feel bad, then let's continue. I don't care about the things, why do you care?"
"only……"
I also can't bear to part with you. Why are you willing to give him a chance, but not forgive me once? It's obvious that I met you first, and I was the first to like you, but I made a mistake halfway and accidentally let go of your hand. How come you were snatched away by someone else? Tell me, is there an afterlife in this world? If there is a next life, can you give me one more chance? Don't be so biased. Obviously, I like you no less than him.
Nan Yan heard that he had only said half of his words, so she asked,
"Just what?"
Jin Lili suddenly sighed, and he slightly raised his face. Although he was smiling, the mist in his eyes was getting deeper and deeper, and his tears were sinking into his ears. He held her tighter and tighter, "It's nothing, I just want you to stop being so partial in the future. Do you understand the principle of treating everyone equally?"
He whispered, "You gave him one more chance, you have to give me one more chance in the next life."
After saying this, he paused for a moment, then threatened cautiously, "Otherwise, even if I die and become a pile of bones in the ground, I will still crawl out of the coffin and get entangled with you."
"You don't want to have nightmares at night, do you? You'd better remember this thing and recite it three times before going to bed every day, otherwise you will deny it when I come to find you."
Nan Yan: “…”
Why does this sound so creepy?
…
Nan Yan seemed to understand what he meant vaguely. From that day on, Jin Lili's attitude towards her seemed to have become more restrained, but there were some emotions that he couldn't suppress sometimes, especially the look in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Feihe, which was as disgusting as ever.
But no matter how much he hated him, it couldn't change the fact that Yanyan loved him wholeheartedly.
Especially when he saw the lonely and absent-minded look that Yanyan often showed, Jin Lili felt unwilling and pity.
In the end he had no choice but to admit defeat.
Although he didn't want to see Xiao Feihe get what he wanted, he really didn't want to see Yanyan sad again, because that would make him a hundred times more uncomfortable than her. After all, in this world, she was the only one who could make him compromise again and again.
Maybe some people are born to restrain certain people, and she just happened to be his nemesis, so he would rather suffer himself than see her cry again.
On November 15th, the weather was fine.
Nan Yan's body has almost recovered.
Jin Lili said that since he had been resting in the mansion for so long, it was time to go out for a walk. He heard that two new rouge shops had opened in the north city market, and that they had a lot of fresh goods from overseas. Since he had nothing to do in the mansion anyway, why not go and take a look together?
Nan Yan pretended not to know what this man was thinking. It had been nearly half a month since her health improved, and this man wished she would stay in the house for the rest of her life. Now that he suddenly asked her out, there must be something else going on.
So Nan Yan did not expose this man's little thoughts. She nodded in agreement and got on the carriage directly.
Jin Li watched the carriage go away, and suddenly he had an urge to rush up and snatch the person back, but after struggling for a long time, he finally let go of his hand powerlessly.
He turned around and went back home.
Once missed, it is missed. No matter how much you do in this life, it will be useless.
On the other side, Nan Yan, after the carriage arrived at the destination and stopped steadily, she lifted the curtain and looked out. Xiao Feihe standing outside seemed a little uneasy.
Sure enough, it seems that she was right. Jin Lili really wanted to help her and Xiao Feihe resolve their misunderstanding.
He reached out his hand to her, wanting to help her down, but Nan Yan's expression changed slightly the moment she saw him, and she glared at him in annoyance, "Why is it you, Jin Lili?"
The cold treatment and rejection that Xiao Feihe had suffered during these days had already worn away all his temper. At this moment, he was only filled with endless caution and uneasiness towards Nan Yan.
Especially when he heard this, his eyes dimmed a little, but he still answered honestly, "He had something to do and couldn't come, so he asked me to accompany you. If you don't want to go shopping, I'll take you back now."
Nan Yan's expression didn't change. "When did I say I didn't want to go shopping anymore?"
Nan Yan pursed her lips, and after saying this, she grabbed the hem of her skirt and got off the carriage.
But when Xiao Feihe subconsciously reached out to help her, she stared at him and said coldly, "Don't touch me, and don't follow me. I don't want to see you now."
These words made Xiao Feihe pause for a moment.
It's okay to not touch her, but it's impossible to not follow her. There are so many people in the market. If he doesn't keep a close eye on her, she will be squeezed out by the crowd in a moment. There are so many pickpockets on the street. What if she is bullied?
Xiao Feihe looked a little embarrassed, but seeing Yanyan's eyes turning obviously colder, he didn't dare to follow too closely.
Finally, he could only think of a compromise. She walked slowly in front, and he watched her at a distance of about ten meters behind her, neither fast nor slow, with his eyes never leaving her.
Later, Xiao Feihe thought that this was also good, as long as he could watch her happy from a distance.
Nan Yan strolled along the way and came to a stall selling wood. The stall owner was a middle-aged man with a full beard and a gray turban on his head. When he saw the customers, he gave an honest smile and then continued with his work. There was no trace of his former fierce look at all.
Nan Yan looked at the stall for a while, then picked out a big-bellied Buddha with its hands on its belly and laughing from a pile of various small wooden Buddhas. A smile appeared in her eyes.
"Stadium owner, how much is this little wooden Buddha?"
The stall owner glanced at her from behind, then lowered his head and answered honestly, "Not expensive, not expensive, ten cents each. If you really like it, just give me seven cents."
"It's only seven cents, it's really cheap. Your cooking skills are so good, why do you only charge so little?"
The stall owner immediately smiled innocently and wiped his palms. "Miss, you are joking. How can you say that you have good skills if you can only make a living? If you like it, just take it. It's only seven cents. It's not expensive."
Nan Yan held the little wooden Buddha in her hand.
Xiao Feihe, who was following closely behind, wanted to step forward when he heard that money was required. However, Nan Yan glared at him again, so he had to stay where he was and dared not move.
Nan Yan took out a few copper coins from her purse and gave them to him.
As we walked further, we saw more and more people.
Xiao Feihe was following very closely, but when he passed a crowded alley, two or three beggar children, laughing and playing, suddenly appeared from the alley and surrounded him.
The three little beggars circled around Xiao Feihe for several times, jumping and making noise, and each of them kept pestering him for copper coins. It was not the first time they had encountered similar situations before.
Xiao Feihe was given a headache by the noise, and he had no choice but to quickly take out a handful of copper coins from his pocket and throw them out. He was only delayed for a moment, but when he raised his head again, Nan Yan, who was not far in front of him, suddenly disappeared.
Xiao Feihe's heart suddenly tensed up. At that moment he thought Nan Yan was playing a trick on him, trying to make him anxious and scared, so she was deliberately taking revenge on him. But when he looked around, he couldn't see her anywhere.
Xiao Feihe suddenly panicked.
He grabbed a passerby and asked, "Did you see the girl over there? She's standing there, about 17 or 18 years old, with very dark and bright eyes."
The passerby said no, so he went to ask the stall owner again, and he refused to give up even after asking the owner until he was tired of it.
"Did you see the girl standing here? She was very pretty, holding a small wooden Buddha in her hand."
"She was wearing a pomegranate red long dress and had her hair in a maiden bun. Her height was just up to my chin. Did you see her?" Xiao Feihe gestured anxiously, sweat breaking out on his forehead.
"No? How could there be no? Did you see it clearly? Think about it carefully, she was standing here just now, holding a small wooden ..."
Xiao Feihe hadn't even finished saying the word "Buddha" when his whole body suddenly shook and his pupils slightly contracted.
His eyes fell on the big-bellied Buddha on the ground with one of its arms broken off. The irritability and panic that had been accumulated in his chest before suddenly reached its peak at this moment.
What's going on? What's going on?
How come the things Yanyan just bought were dropped on the ground?
Xiao Feihe rushed over subconsciously and picked up the small wooden Buddha. He brushed off the dust and saw that the arms of the wooden Buddha were broken directly by someone's hands, and did not seem to have been stepped on.
A great panic suddenly surged in his chest, and an unprecedented uneasiness swept through his entire heart. With red eyes, he searched for every figure present who might look like her, but none of them was her.
Is Yanyan missing? Or has she been kidnapped?
