Reborn as a petite ex-uncle

What's more, he also found out that the place where he was under house arrest was actually the back mountain of Li's family.

This is the place where he accompanied Li Manyao secretly to play countless times when he was a child.

The elders of Li's family did not allow it, and every time, he was the one who protected Li Manyao and came up in private.

Here is her and his secret stronghold, which has never been discovered by adults.

Except for Li Manyao, no one knows such a secret place.

It's not that he didn't try to escape this year.

At first, he didn't hate her, he just wanted to go out and explain to her that he would not affect her struggle for power, even if Huo Shenxiu killed himself, he would not betray her.

It's a pity that he didn't escape, but every time he failed to escape, he was beaten up by the guards, and finally he was chained up.

His heart was getting colder day by day.

It was only then that Li Manyao realized that Li Manyao only used him as a tool.

When useful, speak softly and warmly.

Now that it has an effect on her, she throws him away like a waste.

At this moment, the door on the ground creaked and opened.

Someone is coming down.

Xue Yan only thought it was a daily delivery of food, and didn't respond until the two people who came down threw something on the ground in front of him, and he saw the things on the ground clearly, and then he came to his senses.

It is a cinnabar red bracelet.

There is a small red bean made of glass hanging on the bracelet.

It was a token of love he gave Li Manyao when he was young, before he went to Europe to study at university.

At that time, he did not confess his love for the master's daughter.

In his heart, she is proud, beautiful, intelligent, born of a wealthy family, and a natural princess.

But he is just the son of a family doctor, so very different from her.

He wanted to formally confess his love and propose to her after he returned from his studies and made some achievements.

But he thought that she knew his feelings for her.

Unexpectedly, when he returned to China, she had already married into Dato's mansion.

Before he could confide in his infatuation, it vanished into nothingness.

Those days were the darkest days of his life.

Until that day, newly married Li Manyao came to her.

As a new wife, she sincerely invited him to work as a family doctor in Dato's mansion.

He was a little hesitant at first, seeing the woman he loves marrying into a wife and having children with another man all day long, he couldn't guarantee that he could bear it.

But Li Manyao took out the token he gave her, her eyes were red, she grabbed his hand, and said, "Xue Yan, you really disregarded our friendship for so many years, and could not bear to see your Miss Manyao live alone in Dato's mansion." ."

It is because of this sentence.

It was because she saw that she still kept the bracelet he gave her.

He didn't hesitate any more.

He was obviously a medical student in a famous university and could have a better future, but from then on, he demeaned himself for her, became an unknown family doctor, and always stayed by her side as a servant.

She is the high-ranking Dato's wife. Even if he is employed by Dato's mansion, there are actually not many opportunities to meet her. Even if we see her occasionally, he can only look at her from afar and say a few words, but...

Even so, he didn't regret it at all and was satisfied.

But now-

Why is this bracelet here?

His weak and decadent body sat up straight suddenly, his hoarse throat was like a wounded animal, and he picked up the bracelet:

"Why are you here..."

The guard man taunted: "Mrs. Datuk found it in the utility room and said it was returned to you."

He tightly clenched the bracelet, his heart was like a lightning strike.

For a year, he has been confined here and has never been let out for half a step. From the initial disappointment to the later despair, now the moment he saw the bracelet, he became more angry.

Why……

Giving up her future because of her, never getting married, and doing all kinds of things that angered people, but in the end, she was imprisoned here like an animal, beaten or scolded, just so as not to affect her plan to fight for power with Huo Shenxiu.

Up to now, he has returned his most important love bracelet to him...

It's still from the utility room.

He's been a joke all his life.

His skinny body stretched straight, suddenly, his dull eyes lit up, and he struggled:

"I want to go out, let me out, I want to make it clear to her! Why are you doing this to me...why..."

Seeing that he was dishonest and wanted to make a scene, the two rushed to him with punches and kicks, accompanied by ridicule and sarcasm:

"What's wrong with you? According to Mrs. Dato's style, it is worthy of you to let you live here with food and drink..."

"Mrs. Datuk is already very soft-hearted towards you. Your existence will cause her troubles. She just put you under house arrest. If it were someone else, I'm afraid the bones and scum would be gone."

Xue Yan wailed from the beating, and his whole body was in burning pain.

Compared with flesh wounds, what hurts more is the heart.

Holding the bracelet, his body was bowed into a ball, and he could breathe out at first, but finally, his voice faded away, only moaning remained.

In the end, even the groans were gone, and the fists and feet stopped.

Nearly fainting, I heard the two whispering:

"What should I do? This guy wants to leave every once in a while. It can't be locked here for too long. Otherwise, sooner or later someone will find out."

"Mrs. Datuk said that you can't let him go. Going out will definitely get in the way. If he really clamors to go out and is stubborn, just leave him here."

"It means don't care, let this person fend for himself?"

"Heh. Is a dog that will bring trouble to its owner worthy of living?"

"Looking at him like this, we don't need to do anything. If he is locked up for four or five days without food or drink, he will naturally die."

Xue Yan's swollen eyelids snapped and drooped feebly, a desperate and resentful smile appeared on his lips.

Like a revolving lantern in my mind, fragments of memories from a long, long time ago emerged.

When he was young, he followed her to the back mountain to play, willing to be her attendant.

Every time he accompanied his father to work in the Li family, it was his happiest day.

He obeyed the bossy, arrogant and high-spirited girl.

She played on the mountain for a while, and when she was thirsty, he immediately handed her water.

She said she was tired and had no strength to go down the mountain, so he bent down and carried her down the mountain.

She thought the wild cat named Chun in the backyard was disturbed by howling, so she pointed at the cat and said to him with a smile:

"Xue Yan, help me smash that cat to death!"

He was obliged to pick up the brick and stepped forward.

She frowned and stared at the beautifully dressed little girl next door:

"Xue Yan, her skirt is prettier than mine, go and cut it for me."

He will also take the scissors without hesitation.

Then after she married into Dato's mansion, she said to him with tears in her eyes:

"Xue Yan, what should I do? Fengtai has a wife in Huaguo. He loves her very much. He said he took care of the affairs of the Jin family, so he broke up with me and wants to be with her. Help me deal with it, okay?"

Without any hesitation, he helped her fly to Tancheng.

Later, she asked him: "Xue Yan, are you really willing to kill someone for me?"

He only replied: "The person you want to kill, she must have a damn reason."

In this life, he has never disobeyed Miss Manyao's every word, but he is afraid that he will disappoint the smile on her face.

But she...

It turned out that he was just like a dog.

You never let go of people and things that stand in your way.

Now, are you going to get rid of me again?

Sure enough, it will always be your style, Miss Manyao...

****

At the same time, the time difference between Tancheng and Country M in the dark is more than an hour.

In Huayuan's room, Su Mi had just finished her dinner when she received Huo Shenxiu's WeChat——
