"That's probably how it started..."
The little girl from the Zhao family sat on a low stool, dipping her handkerchief in tea and wiping off the makeup on her face bit by bit. The more she spoke, the softer her voice became.
The most important thing is that his brother Zhao Bin has been silent since just now.
She was beating a drum in her heart.
You must know that the storm is not terrible, but the silence and darkness waiting for the storm to come is the most difficult and terrible.
"Brother..."
Zhao Bin held his forehead with his left hand, and the wound made by the impact of his right hand on the wall was still dripping with blood. He seemed to have turned into a statue from just now, motionless.
The younger sister of the Zhao family wiped off the makeup on her face and put the handkerchief on the dressing table. She looked at her brother carefully.
Thumb thump, there were footsteps coming downstairs.
Nan Er dragged the black figure he had captured. He first saw Xia Zhichan standing outside the door of the embroidery building. The latter pointed at the black figure and then pointed upstairs.
"Give him to Mr. Zhao, and the rest has nothing to do with us."
Xia Zhichan hugged the black cat and gently stroked her chin.
"good."
Nan Er dragged the black shadow upstairs, threw him at Zhao Bin's feet, and then quickly went downstairs.
"Li Lang, what's wrong with you..."
When the younger sister of the Zhao family saw her beloved fainting, she quickly squatted down next to Li Yan and gently shook her lover's shoulders with her hands.
The latter didn't show any reaction. If he wasn't still breathing, he might have been thought to be dead.
"Li Lang..."
The little girl from the Zhao family shed tears again.
Zhao Bin sighed, picked up the teapot from the table, and splashed the tea that had already cooled down because it was autumn into Li Yan's face.
Li Yan suddenly woke up after drinking the cold tea:
"I...where am I?"
"Li Lang, you're okay, that's great..."
The little girl from the Zhao family burst into tears and smiled. She wiped the tea from her lover's face with the corner of her sleeve. The latter looked around with a puzzled expression.
"Are you Li Yan?"
It was obviously just a simple inquiry, but Li Yan was trembling for no reason. He was still sitting on the ground. When he raised his head slightly, he saw a gloomy face.
Zhao Bin knew that his face must not look good now, but he really couldn't put on a good face. If he hadn't been afraid that he couldn't beat the man in front of him, he would have done it long ago.
"Yes...I am Li Yan."
The younger sister of the Zhao family tugged at the corner of her lover's clothes. She didn't dare to make a sound, so she just mouthed two words:
"Brother."
"Well……"
Li Yan probably understood why the face of the man opposite him was so ugly. He didn't know what to say for a while:
"Uh, uh, hello, I'm Li Yan."
Zhao Bin expressionlessly put the empty teapot back on the table.
"Brother..."
The younger sister of the Zhao family knelt down in front of Zhao Bin solemnly, then put her hands on the ground and lowered her head:
"Brother, please help me and Li Lang."
"Well……"
When Li Yan saw this, he also imitated the Zhao family's little sister and knelt on the ground.
"Oh well……"
Zhao Bin sat down on the chair next to the tea table. He was silent for a long time and finally spoke.
"Brother, did you agree? Thank you very much, brother."
The younger sister of the Zhao family was overjoyed. When she wanted to take her lover to express her gratitude to Zhao Bin again, she heard the latter continue to say:
"Li Yan, you and I have two choices..."
Hearing this, Li Yan raised his head and looked at Zhao Bin.
The latter stretched out a finger and said to the two people kneeling on the ground:
"One, you take my little sister away. From now on, I, Zhao Bin, will pretend that I don't have this sister. From now on, whether I am poor or rich, whether I am alive or dead, it has nothing to do with my Zhao family."
"Brother——"
As soon as the little sister of the Zhao family opened her mouth, she saw her brother's majestic and irresistible look. She immediately understood Zhao Bin's determination, so she stopped talking.
"These two..."
Zhao Bin stretched out another finger, made a gesture, and then clenched it into a fist again.
"I will give you 10,000 yuan, and you will leave the Zhao family immediately and never appear again from now on. If you let me know that you still dare to cut off your connection with my little sister..."
Bang!
He punched the tea table.
"I, Zhao Bin! Even if I lose my entire family, I will hire all the killers in the world to kill you until you die!"
The last four words were really squeezed out from between the teeth with gritted teeth.
The room was silent for a moment.
"You choose."
Zhao Bin simply closed his eyes on the chair and rested his mind. He pressed his right elbow on the tea table and pressed his fist against his temple.
"Li Lang, I am willing to accompany you to Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake, to travel around the world, to be free and at ease..."
The little girl from the Zhao family grabbed Li Yan's sleeves and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes while trying to put a smile on her face and said.
Li didn't speak. He clenched his hands into fists and his eyes kept changing. In the end, he didn't know what kind of determination he had made, but his eyes finally became firm.
He said word for word:
"I choose...the second one."
"Li Lang, what are you talking about! Are you going to leave me? Have you forgotten our eternal oath? You, you, you..."
The little girl from the Zhao family grabbed Li Yan's arm with her knuckles turning white. She couldn't believe it and asked her beloved lover over and over again.
Li Yan pulled his arm out of the Zhao family's little sister's hand, stood up expressionlessly, and then tugged at the corner of his mouth with a sneer.
"If it weren't for your family's wealth and your good looks, how could I have said those disgusting words..."
Zhao Bin opened his eyes and looked at Li Yan with a sneer on his face and his little sister who was lying limply on the ground.
"Have you thought about it?"
"Think about it, that's ten thousand dollars."
Li Yan shook off the little girl from the Zhao family who wanted to extend her hand. He stretched out his hand towards Zhao Bin, which probably meant to get the money quickly.
"Okay, let's go, follow me to the accounting office to get the money."
Zhao Bin walked down the stairs, and Li Yan followed him.
"Li Lang, Li..."
The calls from upstairs became weaker and weaker, and the cries became more urgent.
Zhao Bin and the others left the embroidery building. Nan Er glanced at Xia Zhichan and found that the latter had not moved. He simply found a step to sit down, and then took out an old sword manual from his arms.
The sword manual was found by Nan Er from Li Yan. It is the so-called "backhand knife" sword manual.
Before Zhao Bin reached the accounting room, he was stopped by Li Yan behind him.
"What, you don't want the money?"
"No need... I have caused you a lot of trouble these days. Li... I will say goodbye and will never see her again in the future."
Li Yan cupped his fists and bowed his hands deeply.
Naturally, he deeply loved the younger sister of the Zhao family, but he absolutely could not let her wander around the world with him. That's why I followed Zhao Bin's words and chose the second option. Even saying those heartless words was just to make the little girl of the Zhao family give up completely.
"stop!"
Zhao Bin scolded, and he looked up and down at the man in front of him again, and then patted Zhao Bin on the shoulder:
"Come here with your ears..."
…
In the embroidery building, the little girl from the Zhao family cried for a long time. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and a large area of her clothes on her chest was wet.
I cried until the end, even the tears were gone.
She stood up unsteadily, and first took out a pair of small and exquisite scissors from the dressing table, which she usually used for making female celebrities.
"Li Lang, see you in the next life."
With a sudden thought, he held the scissors in his hand and slashed hard on his neck.
If this were a normal situation, there would definitely be a burst of red light and blood flowing everywhere, and then a life would be extinguished like this.
But after the sharp scissors touched the neck, they softened like cooked noodles, without leaving even a red mark on the skin.
"Um?"
The little girl from the Zhao family looked at it with the scissors in confusion. She even hit the tea table with the scissors hard in disbelief.
The sharp scissor heads poked several small holes on the tea table.
No problem?
She mustered up her courage again, held the scissors with both hands behind her back, and stabbed herself hard into the heart.
Um?
The scissors turned into a ball of water and leaked from her fingers, falling to the ground.
"Why, why don't you let me die..."
The younger sister of the Zhao family walked to the window. She vaguely remembered that when she first met her lover, he was squatting under the window in black.
He broke into this window and into her heart.
Today, let her walk out of this window and put an end to everything that shouldn't have happened.
She stretched out her hands and tried to push open the window.
Squeak.
The wooden window made a scraping sound, but was not opened.
The younger sister of the Zhao family increased her strength, making the wooden window make a louder whimpering sound, but it was as if a hand was pressing the window from the outside, preventing her from opening it.
"Why? Why can't I die even if I want to?"
The little sister of the Zhao family leaned against the window, her body limp to the ground little by little. She no longer had the strength to cry.
"In this world, death is a hundred times easier than survival..."
Suddenly a voice said in her ear.
"But once a person loses his life, everything comes to an end."
"Only by working hard can you change the facts you don't agree with."
"The storm will eventually end, and the clouds will clear and the moon will shine."
The little girl from the Zhao family sat on the ground in silence for a long time. The light in her eyes was like the last light left in the long night. The light flickered uncertainly and sometimes threatened to go out.
"Keep it until the clouds open and the moon shines..."
She murmured, closing her eyes and falling asleep.
…
"Who are you talking to?"
Nan Er closed the sword manual and looked at Xia Zhichan who was teasing the cat and talking to himself with a puzzled expression.
"It's not you anyway...Okay, go back to sleep."
Xia Zhichan knew that the little girl from the Zhao family would never commit suicide again. His words were not just words, but planted a seed of hope in her heart.
"No more guarding..."
Nan Er also stood up, patted the dust on the back of his clothes, and then put the sword manual back into his arms.
The two left the courtyard of Miss Zhao's embroidery building and went back to their room to rest.
On the road, he passed by the maid sent by Zhao Bin to serve the little sister, and he didn't see the two people who were frightened by the cat demon. Zhao Bin should have sent someone to the Yamen.
…
Early the next morning, Zhao Bin came to visit him in person.
"Xia Lingguan, since you don't want money, is there anything we can do to repay you? After all, our family is finally at peace because of you..."
"I want a piece of jade...well, it's a very strange jade. If you don't know, you might as well ask your father or the old lady..."
Xia Zhichan has been in the Zhao family these days. Except for the back house where he can't walk around at will, he has walked everywhere else he can, but the black cat in his arms has no reaction at all.
I don’t know where the fragment is hidden in the Zhao family?
And it stands to reason that unless those evil things are deliberately sealed, they will always emit evil energy and damage people's bodies.
But after so many days, he didn't feel any evil energy at all.
Zhao Bin walked to the back house, met his father, and then relayed what Xia Zhichan said to his father.
"Jade……"
Mr. Zhao's expression suddenly changed.
