Xiao Yinhan's eyes moved slightly, and he wanted to say, your brother is real.
But he would never let Tangtang hear such jealous words.
However, he thought he was hiding it well, but Jiang Tang saw through it at a glance.
The girl tilted her head slightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with a different kind of light: "The prince has so many younger brothers, he must understand me."
He doesn't understand.
His relationship with his brother is not that "good".
No one can escape whoever he dislikes.
Unexpectedly, just as he was thinking about his unlucky brothers, an unexpectedly familiar voice came from behind him: "Fourth brother, I heard that there was an assassination in your house, are you okay?"
As soon as I turned around, an unlucky guy suddenly appeared.
Xiao Yichen came in a hurry. Since Bai Muzhi stayed here, the fourth brother has not stopped him from visiting the house, and he even... feels happy to see it happen.
However, he suppressed this feeling as an illusion.
And when he came today, he learned that an assassin had appeared where Miss Bai lived, and he was really worried.
"What do the local officials in Wanping County do for a living? First there were local gentry killing people, then there were bandits killing people and looting goods, and now there are assassins even coming to the prince's residence. It's damn good!"
Xiao Yichen always presented himself as a gentle and gentle person, but it was indeed rare to see him full of righteous indignation and shouting curses.
If they hadn't already known who he really was for, maybe the two people present would be moved by his earth-shattering brotherhood.
"This magistrate is really incompetent. If he continues to let it go, something big will happen! I will personally write a letter to my father when I get back today!"
Xiao Yichen's handsome face was serious, as if Xiao Yinhan could go through fire and water for him immediately with just one word from Xiao Yinhan.
It's just that he talked for a long time, but the man he stopped didn't respond at all. There was even a bit of impatience on his handsome eyebrows, and he was even more indifferent to his "suggestion".
"The assassin settled in Miss Bai's courtyard. His Highness Seventh Prince said so much, but he didn't even ask if she was injured?"
A soft and pleasant female voice came into his ears. Xiao Yichen subconsciously raised his head and met a pair of beautiful eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
It was as if...she had already seen through his thoughts.
Inexplicably, his heart was beating wildly: "Yes, Bai, is Miss Bai injured?"
But who would have thought that this normal remark would be met with a disdainful snort.
What frightened Xiao Yichen was that it was not Jiang Tang who disliked him but... Xiao Yinhan.
"Aren't you tired? Go back and rest."
When Xiao Yinhan spoke, his eyes had already been withdrawn, and he didn't pay any attention to this stupid brother.
Seeing Jiang Tang nodded, he immediately bent down and picked him up in front of Xiao Yichen without any scruples, and walked away straight away.
Xiao Yichen was left in place and completely ignored. His face turned blue and white for a while. After a while, he clenched his fists to suppress his embarrassment and looked at the servant beside him:
"what happened?"
Servant: "I don't know..."
-
"idiot!"
Jiang Tang was carried away by Xiao Yinhan, and the man's suppressed curses sounded in his ears.
Her heart moved slightly, and she subconsciously looked towards him, but she only saw the man's sharp and tight jawline.
Xiao Yinhan... was very unhappy.
"What is he angry about?" Jiang Tang asked.
System: [Angry male partner?]
"Xiao Yichen..." Jiang Tang blinked and suddenly dropped a bomb: "So he can't tell that his precious brother likes the heroine, right?"
The system wants to remind its host that she is the only one who can be called the "treasure" of the male protagonist.
Male supporting actor? Where is he?
However, as the time comes to get more and more tense, the system has learned to avoid saying good things to the male protagonist as much as possible.
[You probably know it. The care of the male and female protagonists is so obvious that it’s easy for people to think wrongly. 】
Hearing the system's approval of his words, Jiang Tang did not object to it. He looked at the man holding him with soft eyes, thoughtfully...
-
"What did you say? The person who hurt you is that woman's brother?"
After hearing what Bai Muzhi said, Xiao Yichen stood up from his chair.
"I knew she was a femme fatale! She actually sent someone to harm you! I will go find Fourth Brother right now and expose her true face!"
Seeing the young man's excited and angry look, Bai Muzhi finally felt the happiness he had not felt for a long time.
My heart felt like being washed by a hot spring, warm and comfortable.
"No need to do this, he didn't hurt me."
When she spoke, her eyes softened a lot. Xiao Yinhan's coldness and neglect these days had almost crushed her self-confidence into the dust.
He didn't seem to really care about her anymore.
It seemed that no matter what happened to her, he wouldn't care.
When she finally waited for his "rescue" that day, God knows how happy she was.
At that time, she thought that he still had her in his heart.
But who knew that on the way back, she took the initiative to talk to him, but what she got was that...he was not here for her.
At that moment, Bai Muzhi really wanted to turn around and leave, never to see him again.
Fortunately, there are still people in this world who care about her.
"Even if it doesn't hurt you, it's not a good intention."
Xiao Yichen thought about the scene just now. The two people were clearly standing in front of him, but they turned a blind eye to him, as if they didn't even notice him.
"Don't worry, I will give you an explanation."
After saying this, Xiao Yichen was about to leave.
"Don't,"
Bai Muzhi could only stop him, and "had no choice but" to tell him the conversation that Xiao Yinhan had clearly warned not to tell others.
"I don't know what the 'door' is, but it should be a very important thing. So, don't worry, that person is just here to deliver news, not to hurt me. And..."
She paused and continued: "He is the boy I rescued from Black Wind Village. I don't think he is a bad person."
Not a bad person?
Xiao Yichen thought of what she had said. When the other party rescued her, he killed many bandits along the way. Only a simple and kind-hearted person like this kind of murderer would think that the other party was "not a bad person".
"Can you tell me more about the 'door' situation?"
Seeing Bai Muzhi's confused eyes, he showed a concerned expression: "I always feel that this person's origin is unknown, and I am worried that you will be deceived."
Bai Muzhi believed it and nodded: "In addition to what I just said, in fact, that woman said something in that small courtyard that day."
"What words?"
"She said that if 'that man' spent his entire life trying to find the 'door' and used it as a bait, he would definitely be obedient."
Bai Muzhi frowned slightly: "I don't know who that person is, and I didn't tell her even if I asked her."
He knows who it is.
Xiao Yichen paused for breath. He originally thought that his visit today was just to visit Bai Muzhi, but who knew he would get such news.
"Fourth brother is now confused by that woman. I'm afraid he can't take care of you. If you really want to set off to find the 'door', can you let me accompany you?"
Xiao Yichen said this because he knew that if he proposed it to his fourth brother, the other party would not pay attention to him at all.
Bai Muzhi was really stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment...
-
"Since I have made my choice, I will not regret it."
In the room, Xiao Yinhan held the girl in his arms lovingly, his deep eyes full of determination: "No matter what kind of bait she throws, I won't care about it."
He had spent the first twenty years doing what he could do for his mother and concubine. For the rest of his time, he just wanted to protect one person.
Jiang Tang vaguely understood what he meant, but he was not as happy as he imagined.
She didn't forget that she still had a hidden mission to solve.
[Hidden Mission: Mystery of Life Experience]
She knew it was bait, but she... couldn't seem to refuse.
"What if I say, I want the prince to go?"
The girl couldn't hear the sober voice and thought of it. Xiao Yinhan was obviously stunned for a moment, and slowly lowered his head to look at her.
