The handsome face is full of tiredness, the beautiful fox's eyes are stained black and blue, and the silver pupils are extremely dim, losing their original luster... There are also patches of dead skin on the lips that have been polished before.
What a mess.
"..." Wang Jin looked at it, feeling a little apprehensive in his heart, and turned his head to look at Xi Ning.
The city lord has always been extremely benevolent...but to Cheng Bai...
Wang Jin also wasn't sure what Cheng Bai had committed, and he was punished to kneel like this when he came back...
Cheng Li was slightly taken aback when he saw Cheng Bai's appearance, and then, with the acquiescence of the city lord, walked over, squatted down, and wanted to help the kneeling man up.
But Cheng Bai didn't want to get up. He pressed Cheng Li's supporting hand with his backhand, looked at Wang Jin, and solemnly kowtowed to Wang Jin in a kneeling position: "I'm sorry, Xiaojiaobao, I I shouldn't have lied to you before."
"..." Wang Jinleng...is that the case again?
This person kowtowed to himself again to apologize. He was forced before, but this time he took the initiative...
"You..." Wang Jin paused, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "What did you lie to me?"
Cheng Bai was taken aback, Wang Jin motioned for the man who had been half-arming him to let go, and Yuan Heng's knuckles trembled slightly, whether it was loosening or not.
As soon as his body was free, Wang Jin bent down to help Cheng Bai. This time he did not refuse, and with the help of Wang Jin, he stood up...
When he stood up, he was weak and unsteady, Cheng Li hurriedly stepped forward to support him from behind.
Wang Jin turned to Xi Ning and said, "Brother, I didn't intervene in Cheng Bai's affairs before, because I didn't know the situation and felt that I couldn't speak out. I was thinking that you would tell me if it was related to me...but... "
Wang Jin glanced at Cheng Bai slightly and said: "But Cheng Bai has been punished like this, I still don't know what happened... I think, if it's not something important, let him be spared, he should know his mistake .”
Yuan Heng originally looked at Wang Jin and turned to Cheng Bai, with hostility in his eyes.
When Xi Ning heard this, a trace of distress and helplessness flashed in his eyes: "My silly brother, do you know what kind of person you are pleading for? Do you know what he did?"
Wang Jin shook his head... The corners of his eyebrows twitched slightly, he kept expressing that he didn't know... and he always wanted to know, but no one told him!
Seeing Wang Jin's appearance, Xi Ning sighed and finally spoke: "He is your fiancé, but without you knowing, he lied to you that your fiancé is his elder brother Cheng Li! You are his brother-in-law."
"!" Wang Jin's eyes widened in astonishment.
Cheng Bai stiffened his body. Under Wang Jin's surprised gaze, his dead lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out from his throat. Looking sad, looking straight at Wang Jin, obviously he did something wrong, but now it seems that he is the one who was wronged... Behaving extremely pitifully.
A trace of surprise also flashed in Yuan Heng's eyes, but then, as if the doubts that had been lingering in his heart for many days were solved, clarity flashed in the light-colored glazed pupils.
No wonder this man is so kind to his little brother... No wonder the person who originally said he was his fiancé didn't show anything after the little brother came back... So it turns out
Cheng Bai is the fiancé...
Wang Jin came over in surprise, blinked his eyes several times, and after a while, he looked at Cheng Bai, then at Cheng Li who was supporting Cheng Bai, and finally looked back at the city lord Xining.
His eyes flicked between several people, and finally he said to Cheng Bai in a puzzled way: "Why did you lie to me?"
Cheng Bai was taken aback, a trace of surprise flashed in his silver pupils.
He originally thought that Xi Ruo would be very angry and hate himself, but he didn't expect that the first sentence this person asked was this...
Cheng Bai didn't think that Xiaojiaobao would ask such a sentence when he didn't say it, but he thought it was normal after asking.
Now he has forgotten what happened in the past... Naturally, he doesn't know his intention to lie to him...
If possible, Cheng Bai really hopes that Xiaojiaobao will never know...
However…
"You...couldn't you tell such ridiculous lies because you don't like me and don't want to marry me?"
Cheng Bai and Xi Yao had a marriage contract, and Xi Yao was deceived by Cheng Bai without knowing it. Cheng Bai lied to Xi Yao that his marriage partner was his elder brother...
If Cheng Bai likes Xi Yao, he will definitely not do this... Doing this is not idle and boring to play a prank, it is to make Xi Yao fall in love with someone else, marry someone else, so that he can escape, and if the object is Cheng Bai's elder brother , Cheng Bai is Xi Yao's brother-in-law, and Xi Yao must never fall in love with Cheng Bai...
Feeling more and more like this, Wang Jin stared at Cheng Bai and asked, Cheng Bai's body stiffened, and the blood on his face that had just recovered a little faded away...
"!" Seeing him like this, Wang Jin knew he had guessed right.
This man is really...
"Not only that, because he lied to you, you mistakenly thought that I was going to betroth you to Cheng Li, and you ran away from home...and finally lost your memory..."
"..." So the original owner left Ning'an City because of Cheng Bai's deception? !
Wang Jin doesn't remember what the original owner went through when he left Ning'an City, but Wang Jin knew that when he woke up, the original owner was already insane in the Danmu tribe.
If the source of all this is really because of Cheng Bai's deceit...then he was beaten up by his elder brother this time, and Xi Ning's punishment would be considered light...
After all, the original owner has...
Moreover, in the memories of the original owner that Wang Jin accidentally remembered, he liked Cheng Bai very much...but he was treated like this by Cheng Bai...
If the original owner is still there, how sad to know the news...
Wang Jin's heart was blocked, as if being crushed by a boulder...
He obviously has no feelings for Cheng Bai, but he feels uncomfortable in his heart as if he has lost his love...
Wang Jin closed his eyes silently, suddenly, the hand hanging aside was wrapped in the palm of a generous hand, Wang Jin was stunned, and raised his head.
At some point, the man quietly stood by his side... holding his hand.
The man's hands are very generous, and he can completely wrap his own hand. The palm is very warm. The man's knuckles are slightly curled up, and the fingertips are rubbing gently on the back of his hand. His movements are gentle as if he is treating the world like a treasure. The rubbing is more like telling Wang Jin.
He is always there.
Wang Jin's heart felt hot, and the boulder pressing on his chest seemed to be crushed by something, and disappeared... His heart was relaxed, the haze on his face dissipated, and he showed a relieved smile...
"Actually...it's great." He said softly, with an unprecedented lightness in his tone.
Cheng Bai raised his eyes in shock, seeing that Xiaojiaobao in front of him didn't stop at him, but looked at Xining.
"Brother, he doesn't like me and doesn't want to marry me. I like Brother Heng, and Brother Heng wants to marry me. It's just right, annul the engagement and let me be with Brother Heng."
Yuan Heng heard the words, the hand holding Wang Jin trembled slightly, then let go, bowed to Xi Ning, his face was determined and sincere: "Please let the city lord do it."
Seeing that orc behaving like this, Xiaojiao Bao beside him blossomed happily...
His lips became heart-shaped in a smile, that smile was always Cheng Bai's favorite, but looking at him now, he felt that smile was so dazzling...
Cheng Bai's knees softened, and he knelt heavily on the ground. His knees had already been bruised and swollen after kneeling for a day. Kneeling like this now, the tingling pain rushed from the knees to the top of his head, making his scalp numb.
His lips trembled, and his voice was trembling, but he finally made a sound.
"City Lord, I know I was wrong. It is a treasure that I didn't understand before. I will definitely make it up to him. I beg you to give me another chance..."
"..." This person... I'm afraid his brain is broken, what is he suddenly regretting at this time?
"Brother..." Wang Jin called softly, his eyes full of resistance.
Xining didn't speak.
"..." Cheng Li looked at Cheng Bai, shrunk his knuckles, finally sighed, raised his eyes to look at Xi Ning and said pleadingly, "City Lord..."
Xi Ning's eyes flickered, looked at Cheng Bai, and finally said, "It's not me you should be begging..."
"..." Cheng Bai understood, and looked at Wang Jin, who had his back turned to him, with an indescribable emotion in his silver pupils.
"Xiaojiaobao..."
"Cheng Bai!" Wang Jin looked back at Cheng Bai displeased, and was about to interrupt him and reject him, but Cheng Bai spoke first.
"You used to like wooden chestnut cakes, and you used to pester me to buy them for you. I haven't bought them for you once, and I still haven't bought them for you now, but I have learned it for you... That was my first time cooking ..."
"..." Wang Jin remembered the wooden chestnut cake that this person brought over that night.
At that time, I really shouldn't be greedy.
"I will learn to cook for you whatever you want to eat in the future. I will treat you very well. I will find you whatever you want. I have land, houses and shops under my name. Here it is...I will love and spoil you, and make up for all the bad things I did to you..."
"..." When did Cheng Bai confess like this... Maybe he really didn't want to let go, but it was too late for him to say this... The original owner has already...
"You told me before that you want to live with me. We will have a yard where we can plant fruits we like to eat and lounge chairs for cooling off. You said you don't want my brother to serve you. If you want, I will This dismisses all the brothers in my yard, and I will take care of everything about you..."
What Cheng Bai said was not heart-warming, but when he said this, his silver pupils were shining, like the Milky Way in the sky, which was extraordinarily beautiful... His face was full of hope, as if through the description Such a scene is like seeing the future.
In the future, only his Xiaojiaobao and him...
"Xiaojiaobao, I know that you are full of Yuan Heng now, but..." He paused, pursed his lips and said, "Can you give me a chance to repent? Let me like you well."
As Cheng Bai said, the silver pupils were filled with tender affection at some point, as if the thread of affection had entangled Wang Jin from all directions through the air flow that looked at each other, entangled Wang Jin so that he couldn't move.
He clearly wanted to refuse, but he couldn't open his lips no matter what...
My mind was suddenly very heavy, and many fragmented pictures flashed back and forth... Messy and disorganized...
"Brother Bai, I like to eat wood chestnut cake, can you buy me a piece for my birthday?"
"Brother Bai, it would be great if you could accept me. We will live in a small yard. You and me don't need to serve me. Fruits are planted in the yard and there are deck chairs. I will take care of Brother Bai and give me Brother Bai cooks and does laundry... I also want to give birth to several little foxes for Brother Bai."
"Brother Bai... Am I really your brother-in-law? But what to do, I like you so much...As your brother-in-law but I like you, am I good or bad..."
"Brother Bai...I can't be your brother-in-law...I can't..."
Brother Bai...Brother Bai...Brother Bai...
Brother Bai, who was full of thoughts, yelled until Wang Jin's brain exploded...
Wang Jin covered his head, and took a step back in discomfort. The nearest to him, Xi Ning, quickly reached out to support him, his lazy eyes suddenly opened, the indifference on his face could no longer be held back, and his expression took on a strong anxious.
"Yao'er, what's the matter?"
