Perhaps because his voice was too desolate and carried a hint of caution, Bai Xianyuâs heart actually trembled slightly.
Did he drink so much because of me, and became like this?
However, in his previous life, he did not drink at all.
He hugged her so tightly that he almost buried her in his arms.
Xie Xingyun leaned against her ear, his eyes deep and dark. âLittle Yuâ¦â
âIs Little Yu a name you are fit to call?â
Ji Shuang turned her head and said angrily. The sword in her hand did not show any mercy and attacked as ruthlessly as it could. Xiao Zheng was afraid of hurting her, so he did not use his full strength and was actually at a slight disadvantage.
He found it unbelievable and focused all his attention on fighting her.
Bai Xianyu was held by him and her entire body was suspended in the air. She tried to calm down. She slowly let go of her tiny hands that were grabbing him.
If she went against Xie Xingyun now, he might lose control even more. She might as well try to pacify him.
âOkay.â
Xie Xingyun froze.
âLet go of me, and 1â11 take you home.â She looked at him sideways.â⦠Alright?â
Xie Xingyun tightened his arms and lowered his eyelashes. âReally?â
This man was drunk and could only hear what he wanted to hear?
Bai Xianyu sighed softly. âYes.â
âOkay.â
Xie Xingyun slowly smiled. There was a faint light in his eyes that reflected her appearance. âLetâs go home now.â
Bai Xianyu felt that he had forgotten something. âLet go of me first.â
Xie Xingyun did not let go. He hugged her even tighter and said in a muffled voice, âIf I let go, will you leave with that man?â
Bai Xianyu revealed a puzzled expression.
He looked up from her neck and stared at Ji Shuang with a sharp gaze, looking extremely dangerous.
Bai Xianyu was stunned. Did he treat Ji Shuang as a man?
That gaze seemed to have been tempered by ten-thousand-year-old ice. The moment it landed on Ji Shuang, she had goosebumps.
âYouâre the man!â After cursing, she felt that something was wrong. She shook off Xiao Zhengâs sword and sneered, âYou donât have to care if Iâm a man or a woman. Iâm the one Little Yu cares about!â
The corners of Bai Xianyuâs mouth twitched.
As expected, the hostility in Xie Xingyunâs entire body was aroused. His grip on Bai Xianyuâs waist gradually tightened. He hugged her with one hand and was about to pull out his sword with the other.
Currently, Ji Shuang was definitely not a match for Xie Xingyun, who had been reborn.
Bai Xianyu immediately bent down to hold the manâs hand and said anxiously, âYou canât hurt her.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xie Xingyun paused and looked at her sideways. There was a trace of hurt in his eyes, as if he was asking her why.
Bai Xianyu said, âIf you hurt her, I wonât take you home.â
Xie Xingyunâs face immediately revealed an expression as if he was about to give up.
Bai Xianyu pushed her sword back and felt slightly more at ease.
At this moment.
He asked, âAre you in love with him?â
Bai Xianyu could not explain to a drunkard, so she simply said, âI donât like him.â
âYou lied to me.â
Xie Xingyun raised his bloody hand as if he wanted to stare a hole through it.
He blinked. âYouâre only concerned about⦠whether heâll be injured.â
He lifted it a little closer. âIâm hurt, too.â
Xie Xingyun was like a child who had been wronged outside, and he said in a low voice, âHe hurt me.â
It seemed like he wanted Bai Xianyu to uphold justice for him.
As he got closer, Bai Xianyu saw the deep wound on his palm. Fingers were connected to the heart. Just looking at such a deep wound hurt. Xie Xingyun had actually endured it for so long without saying anything.
âPut me down and Iâll bandage your wound,â she coaxed softly.
Xie Xingyun frowned and seemed to be hesitating.
âIâll let you hold my hand.â
The young manâs brows gradually relaxed, and the girl in his arms finally stepped on the ground.
As Ji Shuang was distracted, Xiao Zheng took the opportunity to kick her to the corner of the wall. She coughed twice. âLittle Yu!â
Xiao Zheng was at a loss. He put his sword behind his back.
âThanks for letting me win.â
Bai Xianyu was slightly shocked. âShuangâer!â
She wanted to go over and see her, but the man grabbed her hand.
Xie Xingyun was very drunk, but he did not forget what she said just now. He lowered his eyes and inserted his large hand between her fingers until it was tightly intertwined.
âHold hands.â
Helpless, Bai Xianyu pulled him over to Ji Shuang.
Ji Shuang stared at Xie Xingyun fiercely, but Xie Xingyun did not give her a single glance. He was captured fully by the girl in front of him.
âLittle Yu, whatâs going on? Whatâs his relationship with you?â
Bai Xianyu squatted down and helped Ji Shuang up. âItâs a little hard to explain. How are you? Are you injured?â
Ji Shuang gritted her teeth and stood up. âNo.â
âThatâs good.â Bai Xianyu heaved a sigh of relief.
Xiao Zheng looked at Xie Xingyunâs bleeding hand and could not help but say, âFifth Miss Bai, bandage Young Masterâs wound first.â
Ji Shuang clutched her chest and hissed softly. She grabbed Little Yuâs other hand. âDonât bandage him. Why did he go crazy from drinking?â
Xie Xingyun narrowed his intoxicated eyes. If the hostility in his eyes condensed into arrows, Ji Shuang would definitely be pierced by ten thousand arrows now.
âIf I donât bandage him up, and he goes back like this later, the Eldest Princess will definitely not let the matter rest.â
Bai Xianyu looked at Ji Shuang and said, âJust for a while. Weâll leave after I deal with him.â
Ji Shuang controlled her temper and did not speak anymore.
She had only returned to the capital for a few days. If her grandfather caught her for causing trouble, she would definitely be called back.
âXiao Zheng, find some bandages.â
Xiao Zheng nodded. âIâll ask Shopkeeper Wu if he has any now.â
When he left, Xiao Zheng wondered why Fifth Miss Bai could order him around so easily.
It was as if she had already asked him to do things many times.
Xie Xingyun was held down by Bai Xianyu and sat on a chair. His hand did not let go a bit.
Even when Xiao Zheng brought over bandages and medicinal wine and Bai Xianyu said that she wanted to apply medicine on him, he did not let go.
Bai Xianyu had no choice but to bandage him with one hand. She still had to rely on Xiao Zhengâs help. The two of them worked together to stop Xie Xingyunâs bleeding.
Seeing that it was over, Ji Shuang said calmly, âIs everything okay now?â
Bai Xianyu nodded. âIâve bandaged the wound for you. Let go.â
Xie Xingyun did not move.
âIf you keep pulling, youâll go back alone later,â she threatened him.
Ji Shuang was confused. Was this reason really useful?
But Xie Xingyun really let go bit by bit.
Although his actions were extremely reluctant, as if he could go back on his word at any moment,
he asked, âWhy canât we hold hands?â
âI thought we were going home?â
Bai Xianyu stared into his eyes and made a mental note. âIâll make some sobering soup for you now. After drinking it, weâll go home, okay?â
Xiao Zheng looked at her with a complicated gaze.
Bai Xianyu felt a little guilty as if she was lying to a child, but her expression stabilized. âIf you donât let me go, you wonât have any sobering soup to drink.â Xie Xingyunâs eyes lit up. âWould you be making it yourself?â
âYeah..â
