He just wanted to sell it for a higher price.
Qing Huan turned to look at Baili Che and smiled playfully,""Boss. This jade was indeed good jade. However, as far as I know, the southern land is low and the climate is hot. Although there was not much jade produced, the quality was very good, and most of them were warm jade. Although your jade is smooth to the touch, it is not warm jade. Moreover, the carving on the jade was obviously a grass and wood carving from the Eastern Scenic South. Boss definitely wouldn't lie to me sincerely, but he almost made me spend money in vain.”
How could the boss have expected this little girl to be able to say so many things about jade? She was simply familiar with it. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead. He only hoped that this young lady was kind and would not argue with him.
Qing Huan looked at the boss who was constantly wiping his cold sweat and smiled lightly,""Boss, my third young master likes this jade pendant, but he didn't bring any money. I won't mind that you lied to me, so I'll give it to you.”His tone was gentle, as if he was lying to a child.
" Okay…" The boss opened his mouth and said, but he was stunned. For a moment, he was completely mesmerized by the child's smile in front of him. He was delirious and went along with her words.
"Thank you, boss." Qing Huan laughed brilliantly and turned around to run away. The boss scratched his head. Forget it. It was a holiday. It was rare to see such a beautiful young lady. She put on a smiling face and bought things.
Qing Huan ran up to Baili Che and waved the jade pendant in her hand, looking like a little fox. Baili Che found it funny and snatched the orchid pendant away with a wave of his hand.""Thank you, Huan 'er. I like it very much." Qing Huan wanted to snatch it away, but seeing Baili Che holding the jade pendant carefully with genuine happiness in his eyes, her heart softened. He snorted and continued walking forward.
Baili Che carefully kept the jade pendant in his pocket and rushed over in a few steps, holding Qing Huan's small hand. There was no longer a slight smile on his face. The corners of his mouth were almost reaching behind his ears. It was so exaggerated that he finally looked like a teenager.
"Third Young Master…"
"Call me Third Brother." Baili Che interrupted.
Qing Huan pondered for a while. Third Brother." Then, he continued," Third Brother, do you know that your smile before was so fake? It was only this time that I really saw your smile.”
Baili Che couldn't help but move. He looked at the girl beside him with a deep expression. This child was only seven years old this year. Why did he have such an exquisite mind? If his feelings for her were pure love in the past, what was with this heavy feeling now? He couldn't help but hold Qing Huan's hand tightly. After thinking for a long time, he could finally sort out some clues. He was probably really tempted. Although Huan 'er was only seven years old, her intelligence was something that many adults could not compare to. Moreover, she would be engaged in five years. He had never been a pedantic person. Since she was tempted, why couldn't she admit it?
"Huan 'er, Third Brother is asking you. You, are you willing to be Third Brother's bride in the future?”Although his tone was gentle, it was very difficult to say.
Qing Huan was stunned. What…what did he say? Bride? Qing Huan was very clear that she definitely had feelings for him, but it was not to the extent that she would not marry anyone other than the king. Moreover, marriage felt very far away from her.
Baili Che looked at Qing Huan's pale face and his heart ached,""Huan 'er is still young. There's no need to rush. Third Brother will always wait for you."
Qing Huan looked at the young man with a burning gaze, gentle like water, full of love. He really liked her.
However, this was still not enough.
At this moment, a rainbow sword light pierced through the water under the bridge. Four men in black surrounded Baili Che and Qing Huan from four directions. For a moment, it became a dilemma.
With the help of the four of them, the sword light moved even faster, and in the blink of an eye, it was already in front of them. In a flash, Baili Che subconsciously pulled Qing Huan into his arms, not leaving any space. However, his entire back was exposed in front of the sword light.
"Baili Che!" Qing Huan exclaimed. She struggled to get out, but the young man in front of her was still young, but his strength was not small. This embrace was very tight, almost embedding Qing Huan's small body into his embrace. This change was too fast. No one had reacted in time. There were many tourists on the bridge. Outside, the crowd was scattered and fleeing in disorder, but they could not see that the battle of life and death was already in the middle of the bridge.
Baili Che hugged Qing Huan, his feet stomped and his figure flew. He turned around a few times and avoided the middle of the sword light. However, in order to protect Qing Huan, his speed was still slow. His left arm was injured by the sword qi, and his flesh was flipped up. It was almost bone-deep. Even so, he did not relax his grip on Qing Huan's arm. His gaze was like lightning as he glared at the assassins. Including the assassin who injured him, there were a total of five people.
Baili Che's smile remained unchanged as he asked in a clear voice,""May I ask which friend you are? Since you have come to take my life, why don't you dare to show your face?”
Qing Huan stood quietly in Baili Che's arms. She turned her head to look at his wound. It was very deep and blood was trickling out. His silver sleeves were soon dyed red. Even his fingertips were dripping with blood. Qing Huan couldn't help but sob. She covered her mouth with one hand and touched his wound with the other. In just a moment, his heart ached. Even his fingertips were trembling. This youth had protected her with his life, yet he still managed to enter her heart. It was no longer just a simple feeling of affection. A belief that she wanted to walk down the path with him gradually formed. There was no need to worry about being abandoned, no need to stand up in danger.
She raised her head slightly to look at him. There was no panic on his face. He still had the smile that everyone was used to seeing. Elegant and noble, unyielding. It was as if the man in black who could threaten their lives was just a clown for fun. However, she knew that the people following behind him might not be able to sense the danger here through the crowd. In this short moment, he still had to rely on himself.
Countless thoughts ran through Qing Huan's mind. These people clearly came for Baili Che. They knew that Baili Che would be going out today, so they could wait here. Baili Xiong had nine sons, all of whom were of similar age and were very powerful. Four of them had the chance to ascend to the throne. If Baili Che died, too many people would benefit. It was impossible to guess at this moment. Cold sweat broke out on Qing Huan's forehead.
Baili Che tightened his arms. If he couldn't escape unscathed, he had to at least protect her.
Looking at the man in black, he lowered his head and whispered into Qing Huan's ear,""Huan 'er, don't be afraid. Don't worry about me later. Leave when you have the chance.”
Qing Huan's hair was blown by the warm breath. His nervousness slowly receded. Finally, his eyes were clear and there was no trace of panic.
The man in black did not say a word. He only focused on the two people in front of him. His eyes were dark, like a hunter looking at his prey. It was icy cold, and there was only a bloodthirsty smell. The cold air was chilling. This was a killer, a well-trained killer.
Qing Huan closed his eyes. At this point, there was no need to hide anything. He reached into his lapel and felt a completely transparent black jade flute. Clenching her hands tightly, a slight warmth seeped into her meridians, and Qing Huan felt a little better. Hence, he slowly took it out.
Bang! Qing Huan opened her eyes in shock. The situation in front of him changed again. Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420183: 49PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185:56PM
