The still charming Jin Sanniang was greeting customers enthusiastically. When she saw Lin Xiao coming, she hurriedly came up to her with a look of disbelief on her face:
"Brother Lin? Are you my brother Lin?"
Looking at the familiar face, Jin Sanniang couldn't help crying.
After more than a year, after such a long time, Lin Xiao finally came back.
"Sister Jin, I'm sorry..."
Lin Xiao apologized to Jin Sanniang guiltily. She didn't know why she apologized. Maybe it was because she didn't take good care of Yu Xilin!
"Why are you so sorry?"
Jin Sanniang wiped away the tears on her face and said happily: "It's good that you are back!"
"Sister Jin, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of Yu Xilin. He, he had an accident and is gone!"
At the end of the sentence, Lin Xiao's eyes were slightly red and her voice was choked.
Hearing this, Jin Sanniang was stunned for a moment, then shook her head:
"What happened to Mr. Yu? The person I saw that day..."
Speaking of this, Jin Sanniang quickly covered her mouth, looking panicked.
Her expressions and actions made Lin Xiao suspicious. Could it be that Yu Xilin was not dead?
Since he is not dead, why doesn't he come to see me?
"Sister Jin, have you met Yu Xilin?"
Lin Xiao couldn't help but ask, her heart full of anticipation.
Jin Sanniang shook her head, then changed the subject and said:
"Did you know that the Ninth Prince has gone to the border!"
Li Yuyan went to the border?
Lin Xiao was slightly startled, and instantly thought of the nightmare he had been having recently, and couldn't help but feel a touch of worry in his heart.
"Why did he go to the border gate so well?"
"I heard that he is going to support General Xu at the border."
Jin Sanniang said with a worried look: "General Xu is a loyal and brave hero. Even he needs help. It shows how tragic this battle is! The same goes for the emperor. Why doesn't General Bai lead the army? People
After all, he is also the God of War General, how can he claim this title? If the Ninth Prince, who cannot fight, is asked to support him, isn't that asking him to risk his life?"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao nodded, feeling even more anxious.
Could something really happen to Li Yuyan?
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao could no longer sit still and quickly stood up and walked towards the door.
She was going to the border to find Li Yuyan.
However, when she walked out of the food store, she saw two guards blocking the way.
"Mr. Lin? My young lady invites you."
One of the guards asked respectfully.
Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows, and with a hint of vigilance in his heart, he said:
"Who is your lady?"
"Master Lin, just come with us."
The guard said with a smile.
He said it was an invitation, but his tone was very firm. He didn't give Lin Xiao a chance to refuse, and took her straight to Zhulin Xiaozhu.
Inside the small bamboo forest house.
As soon as Lin Xiao entered, his eyes fell on the woman sitting at the stone table, wearing a pink skirt, a simple bun, holding a teacup in her hand, and an indifferent expression.
"Wang Yao?"
Lin Xiao was a little shocked, not expecting to see her.
A bad premonition came to her heart, making her heart beat faster.
Zhulin Xiaozhu is located in a remote location, and there are few people there on weekdays.
If Wang Yao wanted to avenge Yu Xilin here, he would probably die and stink and no one would even know about it!
"I wonder what Miss Wang wants from me?"
Lin Xiao stared at Wang Yao warily and asked.
Wang Yao took a sip of tea and said calmly:
"It's nothing, I just want to have a chat with Mr. Lin."
"chat?"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao sneered in her heart. If she was just chatting, why would she send someone to "invite" her here?
"I wonder what Miss Wang wants to talk to me about?"
Lin Xiao asked in a deep voice.
Wang Yao raised her head and looked at Lin Xiao with a half-smile:
"What are you talking about? You should understand very well!"
When Lin Xiao heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and his heart was filled with a strong sense of danger.
She found that Wang Yao became very strange at this time, as if he was a different person, not as innocent as before.
If Wang Yao was a domineering but loyal young lady in the past, then now she is the daughter of the prime minister with a high reputation in the city!
The look in her eyes made her completely regard herself as her mortal enemy.
"I don't know what Miss Wang is talking about. I wonder if you can let me leave first? I have more important things to deal with!"
Lin Xiao snorted coldly and said without giving in.
"Did you kick Yu Xilin into the sea in order to survive?"
Wang Yao stood up abruptly and asked coldly.
Lin Xiao's face changed slightly, and then he gritted his teeth and said:
"What are you talking nonsense! I have no idea what you are talking about. Yu Xilin is my good brother, how could I do such a thing?"
After hearing this, Wang Yao sneered and said sarcastically:
"Lin Xiao, people will reveal their truest side in times of crisis, how dare you pretend to be so stupid!"
Her words made Lin Xiao tremble all over and his face turned slightly pale.
Could it be that Yu Xilin is really...
She tried hard to recall the scene after the boat broke apart, but she only remembered that Yu Xilin had been desperately trying to save her.
"Don't slander anyone! I didn't!"
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and stared at Wang Yao.
Wang Yao glared at Lin Xiao angrily. After a long time, she slowly sat back on the stone chair and said lightly:
"It doesn't matter whether it is yes or no. Mr. Yu is gone. You can leave!"
After hearing her words, Lin Xiao's whole heart seemed to be stabbed severely by something.
If it hadn't been for Yu Xilin's efforts to rescue him, maybe he could have waited until Esther's rescue, but now.
"I hurt him. If he hadn't tried his best to save me, maybe, maybe."
Lin Xiao murmured and ran outside.
Looking at Lin Xiao's sadly leaving figure, a ferocious look appeared on Wang Yao's face, and she said word by word:
"Lin Xiao, you will not die a good death! I curse you, I curse you to not die a good death in the next life!"
"He doesn't want this either."
At some point, Zhao Qian appeared next to Wang Yao, and his voice came faintly.
Hearing this voice, Wang Yao turned her head, her beautiful eyes filled with hatred:
"Cousin, why don't you let me kill him?"
Zhao Qian shook his head, sighed and said:
"These are fates, so why should you worry about them?"
"What kind of fate?! It was all caused by him, the Sangmenxing! If it weren't for him, Mr. Yu would not have died!"
Wang Yao roared with excitement, as if she wanted to rush forward and kill Lin Xiao immediately.
Zhao Qian frowned and said:
"Yao'er, calm down! This is all fate!"
Wang Yao bit her lip and looked into the distance angrily:
"But he ruined everything about Mr. Yu and my fantasy about the future! I hate him! I want revenge!"
Zhao Qian knew that his dissuasion was ineffective, so he could only shake his head helplessly, and secretly made up his mind to protect Lin Xiaozhouquan!
…
Lin Xiao bought a good horse and rushed to the border without stopping.
As we get closer to the border, the atmosphere becomes gloomier and the air becomes colder.
Bodies buried in yellow sand piled up on the barren land, and the stench of decay was nauseating.
When Lin Xiao saw this scene, he couldn't help but gasped, and his bad premonition became more intense.
She followed the address she found and continued to walk hard.
The yellow sand all over the sky cuts through the void like a sharp blade, causing pain on the skin.
Lin Xiao covered her mouth with one hand, endured the biting cold wind, and faced the difficulty.
