"Duanmu Jin, I always feel like someone is following me these days. Is it yours?"
Those people just followed from a distance and didn't care at all that she discovered their presence, and she couldn't sense any malice on their part.
Naturally, Yu Wen'ao also sent people to follow her, but she was able to get rid of those people every time. Therefore, if it weren't for those rumors, Yu Wen'ao probably wouldn't know where she went out every night.
"kindness."
After a pause, Duanmu Jin replied with some embarrassment. Xiu, that guy, must have let her find out on purpose. Otherwise, with her current skills, it would be easy for Xiu to hide his aura.
"What is the purpose of following me?"
He sent three people to follow her, saying that there was no purpose and even the ghosts would not believe it. But she believed that he would not harm her. Therefore, she did not bother to mention this matter to him in the past few days.
"Protect you."
Duanmu Jin was a little uncomfortable, his face turned slightly red, and he turned his head to the side awkwardly. He was not used to saying these words that were already very ambiguous to him.
Protect her?
Bai Susu picked her ears, thinking she heard wrongly, and stared at his side face suspiciously for a long time. These words were not something that this cold-hearted man could say.
"I don't need protection."
Yanhong's lips moved, and it took her a long time to say these few words. But his words made a warm current flow through her heart.
When she grew up, apart from her adoptive parents, this was the first person who said she wanted to protect her!
"You can pretend they don't exist."
It took a long time before Duanmu Jin replied. Maybe he originally sent someone to protect her because of her status as a soul keeper. But after getting along with her these days, maybe it was not just for that reason.
Now, she has been burdened by him and her reputation has been ruined. He always feels that he has a little more responsibility for her.
"..."
Knowing that she couldn't change his mind, she took the initiative to shut up and let him do whatever he wanted. Anyway, as long as those people didn't disturb her normal life.
Her silence also made the already very silent night even more silent until...
"who?"
A voice as cold as the cold pool escaped from Bao's lips. Duanmu Jin waved his sleeves and robe, and a powerful force was swung not far away.
"ah!"
A scream rang out, and Qian'er didn't expect to be spotted by the Second Prince before she was a long way away from them. Fortunately, she was very agile and managed to avoid the unexpected palm.
The familiar voice shocked Bai Susu's heart. She suddenly raised her head and looked not far away. Sure enough, it was Qian'er. So, she rushed forward without thinking about anything and grabbed the second palm Duanmu Jin was about to swing.
.
"Don't... you are my person..."
Although she had only received one palm from Duanmu Jin, the power of that palm still made her tremble when she thought about it. If he had slapped Qian'er several times in a row, Qian'er might not survive the night.
"oh."
Feeling her warm little hand covering his cold big hand, Duanmujin was shocked. The place touched by her little hand began to feel a little warm, and his heartbeat began to speed up gradually.
This was the first time he had experienced such a feeling, but it made him feel that it was pretty good. Therefore, he did not remind her to take her hand away until she noticed it...
