late snow

Ji Huai was very bored staying in the inn. He was born with a fun-loving personality. Although he had experienced many blows before, he was also very bored now that he was safe for the time being.

As midsummer gradually entered, the small room in the inn was really stuffy, and Zhan Hua was so secretive that he couldn't see anyone every day. He couldn't go out, which made it even more boring.

In previous years, he had to use ice in his house at this time, but now living in a foreign country is full of dangers, so he can only endure it.

He ordered a bucket of water to take a shower, Ji Huai thought it was too hot, and there was no one else in the room, so he simply put on his shirtless pants and fanned himself.

Wet hair was very annoying, and he went to get a towel while waving his fan, and paused when he passed the mirror.

Ji Huai frowned, and after taking a few steps closer, he could see more clearly.

Because he was so hot after taking a bath, he untied the cloth strip that had been wrapped around his neck, and there were several bluish-black fingerprints on the place covered by the cloth strip before. Traces of fingerprints...

Ji Huai had never seen the wound on his neck before, he only knew that it hadn't healed, but now that he took a closer look, he was startled.

The wound seemed to have been deliberately torn open, and there were even fresh teeth marks in some places, which made people feel chills down the spine.

Ji Huai only felt his heart pounding.

He suddenly remembered the night he slept with Zhan Hua a few days ago, he seemed to see Zhan Hua sitting next to him in a daze, and even touched his face, he seemed to be woken up by a pain in his neck...

A terrible guess rose from the bottom of my heart, but he suppressed it as soon as it came to the fore.

However, once the seed of doubt was planted, it took root in the bottom of my heart.

When Zhan Hua came back, he saw Ji Huai sitting by the window in a daze, and walked over to hand him the things in his hand.

Ji Huai was taken aback, "What is this?"

"Clothes." Zhan Hua put them in his hands, "Tomorrow we will wear them to the birthday party."

"Oh." Ji Huai grabbed the clothes in his hand.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhan Hua slightly turned his head to look at him.

"What's the matter with me?" Ji Huai stood up all of a sudden, touched his neck unnaturally, but only touched the cloth strips wrapped around it, put down his hand embarrassingly, and said with a dry smile: "I'm just a little worried."

"Don't worry, just follow me closely," Zhan Hua said.

Ji Huai smiled absent-mindedly, before he finished laughing, Zhan Hua suddenly bent down to look at him, his eyes were cold.

Ji Huai subconsciously clenched the clothes in his hand, "What, what's wrong?"

Zhan Hua showed him a gentle smile, stretched out his hand to untie the cloth strip around his neck, and wrapped it carefully for him again, "It's a little loose, let's go to bed early today."

Ji Huai nodded stiffly.

When Zhan Hua went out, Ji Huai breathed a sigh of relief, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his back, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

He shouldn't doubt Zhan Hua, no matter what the reason is.

Yet the facts are so clear.

Ji Huai found that he couldn't understand Zhan Hua more and more. He still hadn't figured out what kind of temperament Zhan Hua was. Apart from knowing his name, he didn't know anything else.

At night, Ji Huai couldn't fall asleep for a long time, his head was swollen with numerous thoughts and conjectures, and the sweltering weather made him extremely irritable. He tossed and turned all night, and finally fell asleep drowsily when the sky was about to shine.

This sleep lasted until noon.

The collar of the clothes that Zhan Hua brought to him was a bit high, just enough to cover his neck, and Ji Huai was touched by this man's thoughtfulness for a moment.

Complicated emotions were intertwined, but when they went out, Ji Huai threw them all to the back of his mind.

What he experienced these days made him feel like half a lifetime had passed, and now walking among the bustling crowd, he finally regained the familiar feeling.

Ji Huai was originally the son of everyone, and he had a very handsome appearance, just walking on the street caused many people to look at him frequently.

Ji Huai shook off the folding fan in his hand, turned his head slightly to Zhan Hua and said to Zhan Hua, "Brother Zhan Hua, do I have to cover my face?"

Zhan Hua looked at the young man who was almost sticking to his face, and the other party's eyes were full of smiles, which were a little bit brighter under the scorching sun of midsummer.

He walked away from Ji Huai without any trace, "No, it's safe here."

"Then I'm relieved." With Zhan Hua's guarantee, Ji Huai felt relieved and let others look at her openly, looking cheerful and relaxed.

The wealthy businessman who celebrated his birthday was surnamed Xu, and today is his [-]th birthday. In addition, he is a well-known charitable person in Baonan County. Congee, very lively.

The rich businessman Xu has only one son named Xu Ziming, who is currently welcoming guests at the gate of the Xu residence. He just finished talking with a good friend when he looked up and saw two good-looking guests standing in front of him.

One of these two has warm and handsome eyebrows, the other is handsome and dignified. They both look about 23 or [-] years old, which makes people feel good.

"My father and I are old friends." Zhan Hua handed over the invitation and smiled slightly.

Xu Ziming glanced at the invitation, and with a smile on his face, he invited the two of them in, "Master, please, my father is waiting for you."

After saying a few words to the housekeeper behind him, he actually led them the way himself.

Although the Xu Mansion looked like an ordinary house from the outside, there was indeed something hidden inside. The three of them walked for a long time before reaching the study.

Master Xu looked hale and hearty, and when he saw them coming in, he got up from his chair, looking very excited.

Zhan Hua glanced at him lightly.

Master Xu coughed dryly, and first said politely to Ji Huai: "I'm busy with business today, I really don't have time to spare, tomorrow I will go personally to apologize to Young Master Ji."

Then he told Xu Ziming: "Take Mr. Ji to the Pine Garden to have a rest first."

Seeing Zhan Hua nodding at him, Ji Huai felt relieved and said to Mr. Xu, "I'm sorry for your inconvenience."

After speaking, he followed Xu Ziming and left.

When the two left, Master Xu's expression changed instantly, and he knelt on one knee and saluted Zhanhua, "Xu Wang, my subordinate, has seen the young master."

Zhan Hua sat on the chair and glanced at him, "Did you send the message back?"

Xu Wang hurriedly said: "No, no, how dare the subordinates make decisions without the young master's nod."

Zhan Hua chuckled, "You're smart."

Xu Wang raised his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with a dry smile, "Young master, then my grandson—"

Zhan Hua glanced at him.

Xu Wang wiped his sweat again, cleared his throat and said, "He's not in good health, I'm afraid he won't be used to living outside."

"When we leave here, he will be back almost soon, understand?" Zhan Hua looked at him with a half-smile.

Xu Wang felt the pain in the root of his tongue, and nodded repeatedly, "This subordinate must protect the young master's safety."

Not long after Ji Huai waited, he saw Zhan Hua pushing the door in.

"Are you all right?" he asked.

Zhan Hua shook his head, "We need to stay here for a while."

Ji Huai naturally had no objection.

The outer courtyard was very lively, but neither of them went out, they just ate dinner silently in this small courtyard.

Before leaving, Zhan Hua specifically asked him: "Do you need me to accompany you tonight?"

Ji Huai, who was drinking tea, almost spit out a mouthful of tea, "No, no need, I can't keep bothering you."

Zhan Hua didn't say anything, opened the door and left.

Ji Huai couldn't help touching his neck again.

In the middle of the night, Ji Huai was awakened from his sleep, opened his eyes and vaguely saw someone sitting beside the bed, subconsciously thought it was Zhan Hua, "Well, what's wrong?"

The person sitting by the bed laughed.

This strange laughter made Ji Huai wake up instantly, and the moonlight shining in from outside caused the half mask on the man's face to reflect cold light, making him look gloomy.

"you--"

Before Ji Huai finished speaking, he covered his mouth, and the cold blade pressed tightly against his throat.

Quan Ning leaned into his ear and whispered: "Master Ji, I advise you not to yell indiscriminately. It's not a wise choice to make me angry."

Ji Huai was not used to being so close to strangers, so he turned his head to the side vigorously, exposing the most vulnerable neck.

He completely forgot that there was a dagger stuck to his throat.

Quan Ning seemed to be pleased by his ignorant and stupid actions, and stretched out his hand to pinch his earlobe, "I can't take you away from this place, but if you want to understand clearly, Mr. Ji, go to the outskirts of the city east Look for me in that ruined temple...Young Master Ji, you can figure it out, no matter who you fall into, at least you can still survive, if you follow that evil god, you may not even have bones left."

Ji Huai stared at him vigilantly, "Why should I trust you?"

On the contrary, Quan Ning was a little surprised now, "Hey, have you finally become smarter?"

Ji Huai was not in the mood to joke with him, "Evidence."

"Everyone in Hell Sea has a blood butterfly tattooed on their backs. The higher the status, the darker the color. The one you're following...is probably so dark that it's about to turn black." Quan Ning looked at Ji Huai's bewildered expression, He smiled and said: "Young master, go out and inquire casually, you will understand who are the people in Hell Sea, this is for you."

Quan Ning threw him a chain with a delicate and small spike on it.

"What is this?" Ji Huai picked up the wolf tooth and glanced at it.

"A token of love." Quan Ning pinched his face with a smile, the blade left Ji Huai's throat, and turned out of the window silently.

Ji Huai collapsed on the bed, the clothes on his back were soaked in cold sweat.

Even after fleeing with Zhanhua for such a long time, he still hasn't gotten used to the fact that these Jianghu people talk with knives at every turn.

Not everyone is comfortable with the tip of a knife against their neck.

He looked at the little wolf fang in his palm in the dark, and fell into deep thought.

Hell Sea, what is it?

Ji Huai held the wolf tooth in the palm of his hand, the sharp teeth hurt his palm slightly.

He can no longer sit still and wait for death, he must find a way.

Human relationships are not immune to suspicions, and whether those suspicions are true or not, they become poisonous over time.

Ji Huai understood this truth from a very young age.

The author has something to say:

Mr. Ji is neither stupid nor stupid, he was just stunned by this series of events, and subconsciously grasped Zhan Hua as a life-saving straw

Ji Gongzi's IQ is gradually returning to normal
