Inside the carriage, a delicate fragrance lingers, and some pink ornaments are hung around, transforming the carriage into a temporary boudoir. It is unimaginable that Han Xue, who looks quite cold on the outside, actually has the mentality of a little woman in her heart.
...
In the car, Xiao Yan was sitting unnaturally on a chair. Opposite him, he took the tea cup, filled it with tea himself, and then gently pushed it in front of Xiao Yan with some jerkiness. Seeing this
From the looks of it, the eldest lady of the Han family obviously rarely does this kind of waiting work.
However, it was precisely because of this that Xiao Yan felt unnatural. He was used to Han Xue's indifference, and he was really uncomfortable with her sudden enthusiasm.
Holding the tea cup, feeling the faint temperature and residual fragrance on it, Xiao Yan raised his eyes slightly, but he happened to be staring at the beautiful eyes opposite him. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Miss Han, please tell me if you have anything to say.
Bar."
"Call me Han Xue. I can't afford to be called Miss." Han Xue also slowly sat down, glanced at Xiao Yan, and said softly: "I didn't expect that I randomly picked up a dying person in the desert.
, is actually a very well-hidden strong man, but no matter what, Han Xue would like to express his gratitude for the two rescues along the way."
"It's nothing. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to tell which wolf I fed now. It's right to help, Xiao Han... You don't have to worry about these things, I don't expect anything in return from you.
"Xiao Yan waved his hand and said with a smile.
Han Xue pursed her lips and smiled, and a touching smile bloomed on her usually indifferent cheeks. After a moment of hesitation, she said slowly: "When you arrive at Tianbei City, do you just want to leave?"
"If there are no surprises, this should be the case." Xiao Yan paused for a moment, then nodded and said.
Hearing this, a flash of disappointment flashed in Han Xue's beautiful eyes, and she rubbed the kettle with her jade hands. After a moment, as if she had gathered enough courage, she said: "Mr. Xiao Yan, I wonder if I can ask you a favor?"
"What about the Han family and the Hong family?" Xiao Yan gently put down the tea cup in his hand and said in a calm voice.
Han Xue bit her red lips and nodded gently.
"You think highly of me. The Hong family has been able to dominate Tianbei City for so many years, so it must be quite strong. With my own strength, what kind of help can I do?" Xiao Yan said slowly. When he first came to Zhongzhou, he didn't think so.
He didn't want to offend anyone by coming here, especially since the Hong family was involved with that Fenglei Pavilion. Xiao Yan knew that this force that Xin Lan had specially introduced must be extremely powerful. With his current situation,
The strength may be difficult to compete with.
"Mr. Xiao Yan should still be an alchemist, right?" Han Xue said anxiously: "And the level must not be low. A high-level alchemist, even the Hong family, will not offend easily, so if
If you are willing to help, the Han family will definitely be able to relax a lot."
Xiao Yan raised his eyes slightly, looking at the pleading and eagerness on Han Xue's cheeks, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. This trouble is really a headache.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, as long as you are willing to help the Han family get through this trouble, the Han family will definitely give you a satisfactory reward. If, if you still feel that it is not possible, then I am willing to become your concubine. I beg you to take action once!" Han Xuejiao
A blush suddenly appeared on his face, he bit his silver teeth and said.
"Ahem..." Her words almost made Xiao Yan spit out a mouthful of tea. He stood up quickly, waved his hands and said, "No, I'm used to being alone, but I'm not used to being surrounded by people. This is something I'm not used to."
I will think about it, so let’s just say goodbye.”
After saying that, Xiao Yan hurriedly turned around, opened the car door and rushed out. He did not expect that Han Xue, who looked cold on the outside, would be so bold in this matter, even so bold that he couldn't stand it.
Looking at Xiao Yan who escaped from the carriage in embarrassment, Han Xue was also startled. After a moment, she smiled a little. From the first time she saw the former, she had never seen this young man who was as unfathomable as an ancient well exposed.
I had never looked like this before, but I never expected that she would react like this to her words. It was really interesting.
"This guy is not bad...but it can be seen that he is the kind of person who doesn't like trouble. Alas, and the Hong family is powerful, dragging him in may be a kind of trouble for him. I'm a little bit
How reckless..."
After lightly laughing, Han Xue also gradually calmed down, sighed softly, and said faintly.
After Xiao Yan showed his strength, just as he expected, everyone in the team felt a little more in awe of him. Things like the unscrupulous joking a few days ago no longer happened. Although Xiao Yan had already
Anticipating this, he still couldn't help but smile bitterly. In the eyes of people like Han Chong, his strength was simply too unattainable...
This change made Xiao Yan feel a little unnatural, but fortunately there was not much distance left. As it approached evening, the outline of a huge city loomed in the field of vision of Xiao Yan and others.
middle.
Looking at the city that could already be seen, Han Chong and others also breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing their reactions, Xiao Yan also understood that this city should be the so-called Tianbei City...
With a casual glance, Xiao Yan took two steps back and stopped right next to Han Chong. Seeing him approaching, Han Chong hurriedly wanted to clasp his fists, but felt a soft force against him, and immediately a
A helpless voice reached his ears: "Brother Han, don't be so polite. It was you who saved my life. Don't call me sir anymore. Just stay the same as before."
"Xiao Yan, sir... you're welcome, brother. With your strength, even if we don't rescue you, you'll still be fine." Han Chong hesitated for a moment and smiled, but there was still awe that was hard to conceal in his words.
Xiao Yan had no choice but to flick his fingers, and a pill fell into Han Chong's hand without leaving a trace. He said casually in a low voice: "Put the pill away, it will help you increase your success rate and break through to Dou Wang."
Hearing this, Han Chong's body trembled violently, and a touch of excitement appeared in his eyes. He had been at the peak of Dou Ling for many years, but he had yet to break through. He knew that some high-level pills had miraculous effects in helping people break through, but that kind of
Pills are extremely expensive. With his financial resources, how could he afford them.
"Xiao...Brother Xiao Yan, this gift is too heavy..." Han Chong said with a trembling voice as his eyes turned red due to excitement.
"As important as my life?" Xiao Yan smiled and said jokingly.
"Brother Xiao Yan, you...are you leaving?" Han Chong said calmly after carefully putting the elixir away.
Xiao Yan was silent for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
"Haha, brother Xiao Yan, there is nothing bad to say. You have no friendship with the Han family, but you have saved us twice along the way. Even if you want to repay the favor, it is already enough. The Hong family is powerful
Big, if you get involved, it won't be very good..." Seeing this, Han Chong smiled and said.
Xiao Yan was silent.
Ta! Ta!
While Xiao Yan and Han Chong were talking, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the city gate in the distance, and they quickly rushed towards their direction.
Seeing this movement, Han Chong and others, who were already frightened, hurriedly clenched their weapons. However, a moment later, someone with sharp eyes suddenly said in surprise: "He is one of ours."
The sound of horse hooves stopped quickly in front of the motorcade, and immediately a figure jumped off the horse. This man looked to be no more than twenty-three or four years old. He was dressed in smart clothes and looked energetic. His face was somewhat handsome and he had a tall body.
He looked quite impressive, but when Han Chong and others saw him, they all frowned slightly.
When the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded, Han Xue also walked out of the carriage. Her beautiful eyes first fell on Xiao Yan, but the latter seemed unaware and only focused on chatting with Han Chong. Seeing this, she could only
He gritted his silver teeth unwillingly and turned his head to look at the man who got off the horse, frowning slightly.
"Xuemei, are you okay?" When the man saw Han Xue, surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he walked up quickly and said with concern.
"I'm fine." Han Xue replied casually, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Yan who was slowly retreating from the corner of his eye. He turned around quickly and said loudly: "Stop!"
Seeing Han Xue looking over, Xiao Yan had to stop and helplessly spread his hands towards Han Chong.
Han Xuemei stared at Xiao Yan. After a moment, she seemed to have thought of something. Her eyes dimmed slightly and she said softly: "I am willful. If Mr. Xiao Yan wants to leave, please do so. Thank you for taking care of me along the way. I hope you will."
We may meet again in the future if we are destined."
When she said this, Xiao Yan suddenly laughed bitterly. After saying these words, if he turned around and left again, he would probably be despised by others.
"Oh, I'll stay and take a look, but don't expect too much from me..." Xiao Yan sighed and said.
"real?"
Hearing this, Han Xue's heartbreakingly gloomy eyes suddenly burst out with a moving look, and she said in surprise.
Seeing that pretty face that looked a little charming due to joy, Xiao Yan could only nod his head, but he let out a bitter smile again in his heart. Humanity... is as heavy as a mountain...
"Sister Xue, who is this one? She seems to have a tough face. Is she also the guard of our Han family?" The handsome man on the side, when seeing Han Xue, who is usually a cold person, actually looked different from that person.
Seeing such a girlish attitude in front of a rather ordinary young man, a trace of jealousy naturally welled up in his heart, and he asked with a smile as if casually. In his words, there was a special disdain for the so-called slave status of a guard.
"Han Lin, show some respect to my guest. He is not a guard, but a worshiper invited by me for the Han family. If you talk nonsense next time, don't blame me for turning against you!" Han Xue suddenly turned around, her pretty face changing.
Generally, it turned into indifference and scolded coldly.
Being so coldly reprimanded by Han Xue, Han Lin's face turned blue and white, and he couldn't help but sneered: "Consecrate? Sister Xue, you are probably mistaken, right? According to the rules of the clan, my Han family consecrates
The first condition is that you need the strength of Dou Huang. Even though you are the daughter of the family head, you can’t ignore family rules like this, right?”
Hearing this, Han Xue's originally indifferent face suddenly revealed a touching smile. With a wave of her hand, a guard immediately pressed the two of them down from the vehicle and immediately threw them in front of Han Lin.
"He was able to capture two Hong family elders, Hong Mu and Hong Lie, alive. Do you think he is qualified?"
