"Listen to me, things are not what you heard. You can actually survive until..."

"Ah, don't you want to take me out to play?"

"Yes, I want to take you out to play, but you can definitely... huh?"

Jiang Chen stared blankly at Bai Zhi, who had a look of disappointment on her pretty face.

What's going on? Who was talking just now?

what the hell.

It turned out that she only heard the second half.

No, wait, this is not a plot only for bloody TV dramas.

"You said, take me out to play."

Time flies by.

When it gets dusk, people come and go in the teahouses on the street.

The setting sun sets in the corner of the teahouse, and the faint fragrance floats. The thin air is dyed with a layer of plain warmth, somewhat like the flavor of moon dusk. On the land that was illuminated, countless flying dust feathers turned into a few reddish glows on the horizon.

Bai Zhi holds a bunch of candied haws in her left hand and a little rabbit made of sugar in her right hand.

Walking slowly in front, looking at this and that.

Then he opened his small cherry mouth and gently bit the rabbit's ear.

Suddenly the little rabbit made of sugar fell into pieces and was about to fall apart.

She anxiously looked at Jiang Chen for help, made a whining sound, and bit her tightly, fearing that the candy man would fall off, even a little bit.

Jiang Chen quickly took out a piece of paper used to wrap the buns from the stall next to him, quickly came to her side, and caught the candy crumbs that were about to fall.

"Fortunately, Xin Hao."

"It's a pity that the little rabbit was broken into pieces. Originally, I just wanted to bite one ear." Bai Zhi looked at the candy man who had turned into pieces with some distress.

"Small question, wait for me."

After a while, Jiang Chen handed a brand new little bunny candy man into her hands.

Bai Zhi smiled silly at him, and then bit off half of the candy man's ear.

Sugar Man Bunny: I am sugar, I am already very sweet, but I don’t want to die, please give me pleasure now!

Climb the stairs.

One of the most luxurious restaurants in Beijing.

Outside the window is the Tianzi River.

At this time, the twilight is closing, and the Tianzi River is shining like a layer of gold powder.

The oil lamps on the bows of the boats docked by the river have been lit, and the vendors on both sides have also lit up colorful lanterns.

It makes Tianzi River even more dazzling.

"Wow, so beautiful."

Finding a seat by the window and sitting down, the two of them were completely attracted by the beautiful scenery outside the window.

"Is this your first time coming to our boarding building?"

"yes!"

"This is where it comes from. Every time there is a grand gathering, it is really lively. The banks of the Tianzi River are full of people. Some are making wishes in the river, while others are reciting poems and writing poems here."

The waiter introduced the food while placing it on the table.

And there seems to be a trend that cannot be stopped.

"And to be honest with you two, it is said that Tianzi River is very efficacious. All your wishes and marriages will come true."

"Then what wish did you make?"

After these few days of contact, Bai Zhi seems to have some tendency to develop towards Sheniu.

The waiter scratched his head in embarrassment.

"I just want to make more money."

"Did your wish come true?"

"certainly!"

As soon as the waiter finished speaking, he was greeted away by the guest sitting next to him.

The remaining Bai Zhi stared at Tianzi River, with stars in her eyes.

"I can make wishes again."

Jiang Chen did not disturb her, and quietly looked at Bai Zhi who was standing at the window and looking down.

Maybe this kind of life is what she yearns for.

All the food has been served, but Bai Zhi has not started yet.

"Why don't you eat it? Is it not to your liking?"

Jiang Chen took a taste and found that the taste was pretty good. The chef on the boarding floor was definitely much better than him.

Bai Zhi shook her head, picked up a piece of bamboo shoot, chewed it and showed a satisfied expression.

"It tastes much better than the one in the palace."

This time she didn't even hide it at all.

"From the day I became sensible, people around me looked at me with pity, including my father and mother. They didn't say anything, but I knew it."

"It's wrong for people like me to be born into the royal family. I can't get married, I can't do anything for them, and I'll even involve many people. I guard a small world every day and live like a canary."

Bai Zhi suddenly spoke, with no emotion in her tone.

Jiang Chen didn't know how long these words had been buried in her heart, and how those miserable days came to pass.

So much so that Bai Zhi, who was innocent by nature, once thought of committing suicide in various ways.

"Until brother appeared and you..."

As she spoke, she stared at Jiang Chen with her bright, clear eyes.

"I did not do anything."

"You took me to eat candied haws, made a wish under the starry sky, and walked on the streets at dusk. You made me experience the life of an ordinary person, not a princess, nor a patient."

Her weak voice at this moment was so penetrating.

Every word pierced Jiang Chen's heart deeply, and then he worked hard to get inside.

etc.

Who the hell arranged this plot.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine."

"Really?"

"Of course, my master is the best doctor in the world. Any disease is a small problem to him. He can easily solve it."

"Can……"

"Talking while eating, the food won't taste good when it gets cold."

Jiang Chen listened carefully to every word and sentence of Bai Zhi.

This little girl seemed to have opened up her chat box, spouting out all the words she had learned over the past twenty years.

Unconsciously, the moon has risen very high.

The holy moonlight fills the Tianzi River.

Suddenly, Jiang Chen's heart throbbed suddenly, and he smelled a strong dangerous aura.

He quickly pulled Bai Zhi to his side and stared around nervously.

"What's wrong?"

"You must stay here and don't move."

Jiang Chen wasn't sure if this person was coming for him, but having him in Bai Zhi would be dangerous, and it would be inconvenient for him to use his skills.

"This kid..."

A person appeared behind Bai Zhi at some point. He quietly stared at Jiang Chen who disappeared at the end of the street.

"He'll be fine."

"Don't worry, princess."

Although Wen Yangbing said this, he was secretly cursing Jiang Chen in his heart, hoping that this kid would never come back again.

It almost made the little princess cry.

The beating last time was gentle.

Jiang Chen knew that Bai Zhi was always followed by a master, and if nothing else happened, it was the tenth-level martial arts master he met that night.

With people like that around, there is no need to worry about Bai Zhi's safety.

But now, he began to worry about his safety.

I don't know why, but I couldn't hold it back and rushed out.

"Come out, what does it look like to be sneaky? Let's talk, maybe we can cooperate."

Deep in the alley, Jiang Chen said loudly.

He didn't know where the other party was hiding, and he just hoped that he could lead him out in this way.

"Mr. Jiang, long time no see."

What Jiang Chen didn't expect was that as soon as he finished speaking, someone walked out of the corner.

This man was wrapped in a wide black robe, almost blending into the dark streets.

Here you go, little Heizi!
