1787. Chapter 1787 Extra Story: Beasts Without Borders [35]
"Girl, did I say something wrong? Don't cry!"
Xiao Jin blinked away the tears from the corners of his eyes, smiled slightly, and said, "I didn't cry, it's because the rain was too bitter."
Her face was cold and arrogant, and she really didn't look like someone who could cry. Wei Ziyuan hesitated for a moment and then said: "This place is too desolate. If you don't mind it, my house is not far away..."
I heard that he wanted to invite him to his house to take shelter from the rain, but due to the barrier between men and women, he, a scholar, felt embarrassed to say so.
Xiao Jin didn't care. It was raining too much here, and she happened to find a place to take shelter from the rain. Besides, this scholar had an aura similar to that of his brother. She would feel very peaceful when she was around him.
"Thank you, sir." Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Jin said with a smile, easing his embarrassment.
When Wei Ziyao heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled stupidly.
"What's your name?" Xiao Jin asked.
"I'm Wei Ziyao, I don't know, girl..." He hesitated again, this time, probably out of shame.
"My surname is Xuanyuan, and my single name contains the character 'Jin'."
"Xuanyuan Jin..." He muttered, such a domineering name made his face blush for no reason.
In order to cover up the embarrassment, Wei Ziyao quickly turned around and said, "Girl, please come with me. It's raining and the road is slippery. You, follow me and don't slip."
Thinking that he had fallen so embarrassingly just now and was still covered in mud, he thought that walking would be even more difficult for such a weak girl.
He thought about it. Naturally, he would not dare to hold her hand, nor could he bear to let her go alone. After thinking about it, he actually threw away the book in his hand and broke a long stick from the tree.
The branches come down.
Xiao Jin watched his movements, and it wasn't until he handed the branch to her that she realized that he actually wanted to use the branch to pull her to prevent her from falling.
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Although the road was slippery and the hillside was steep, with her strength, she was able to climb up with a single leap. Why was there any need to make such a fuss?
But seeing the cautious and concerned expression on the scholar's face, as if her brother had been looking at her, my heart moved, so I smiled and stretched out my hand to grab the branch.
"Be careful." Wei Ziyao said, turned around and used his hands and feet together, hunched his body, sometimes climbing on rocks, sometimes grabbing tree roots, and climbed up step by step with difficulty.
Xiao Jin also symbolically grabbed a branch and followed behind him. Looking at his serious back, he sighed in his heart: I never thought there could be such a kind person in the world.
Compared with the ugliness she had experienced, everything seemed very beautiful.
When the two finally climbed up the short hillside, the scholar's whole body was already covered in mud, and his hair and face were not spared. Not to mention how embarrassed he looked.
"Sir! It's great that you're okay!" As soon as they came up, Wei Ziyao's bookboy ran up immediately. He was just about to go back and call someone, but now he's okay.
When the book boy saw the girl in black behind Wei Ziyao, he was immediately frightened by the birthmark on her face and stammered rudely: "This, this is so ugly..."
"Wei Ding!" Wei Ziyao shouted immediately, his face turned livid, "Who taught you to be so uncultured? I don't think you need to follow me anymore, go back to your hometown!"
Wei Ding, the bookboy, knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he knelt down and kowtowed. He also saw Xiao Jin all of a sudden, and he couldn't stop himself from speaking before he said the wrong thing.
