"Why are you sticking your hand out?" Shi Sheng pulled Xi Yin's hand back into the car and closed the car window.
Xi Yin gripped Shi Sheng's hand and smiled at him.
Shi Sheng didn't pull his hand back. He continued driving with one hand and looked to the side.
She saw it just now.
That sea of flowers that had suddenly started rolling.
But since Xi Yin didn't want to talk about it, she didn't intend to ask. It had nothing to do with her.
Shi Sheng parked the car in a deserted area. Xi Yin suddenly leaned over and kissed the corner of her lips.
After a moment, he asked her in a low voice, "You clearly saw it. Why didn't you ask?"
Shi Sheng pushed against his chest and backed away. "Do you want to tell me?"
"If you want to know, I'll tell you." Xi Yin looked at her seriously.
Shi Sheng blinked. His handsome face was reflected in her eyes. Xi Yin's eyes darkened, and he kissed her again.
When Xi Yin finally let go of Shi Sheng, Shi Sheng's face was a bit red. When did this guy become so good at kissing?
She almost couldn't handle it.
"Many bloodlings have died in that place." Xi Yin's voice was very soft. If it weren't for the fact that the car was very quiet, Shi Sheng probably wouldn't have heard him.
She turned to look at Xi Yin. Xi Yin was looking at her with a faint smile on his lips.
There was no warmth in that smile. It was oddly cold.
"I killed them." Xi Yin's lips moved.
Shi Sheng stared at Xi Yin, anger rising in his heart.
He was actually testing her.
This idiot!
Shi Sheng took a few deep breaths to suppress his anger. He tugged at his lips. "I don't care what you've done or what you want to do. Even if you want to kill the entire bloodlings right now, I'll still stand by your side. Do you understand?"
Xi Yin's tightly clenched fists slowly relaxed, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
He felt around his wrist for a moment, and Shi Sheng saw a red pendant appear in his hand.
He took Shi Sheng's wrist and put it on for her.
"This is …"
If she remembered correctly, she had seen it in Mi Nai's painting before.
Was that child him?
Where did Mi Nai get that painting from?
"It's just an ordinary bracelet, but it's something passed down in my family. It represents your identity," Xi Yin explained in a low voice. "My identity as Xi Yin's wife."
Xi Yin raised his head and planted a gentle kiss on the corner of her lips. "This is your own choice, Mi Nai. There's no turning back for you."
Shi Sheng sneered, pinched his face, and said viciously, "Who wants to go back? I wish we could live and die together."
Xi Yin seemed to be pleased. "To be my, Xi Yin's, woman, you must have this kind of awareness. If I live, you can't die. If I die, you can't live either."
Shi Sheng raised his eyebrows. Compared to him, Shi Sheng felt that he was more selfish. Every man for himself, not to mention that she liked him.
It didn't matter now. She would find him eventually.
But this guy didn't even propose to her, so how could they be married just like that?
Wishful thinking.
The bracelet would disappear when it was on Xi Yin's wrist, but it wouldn't when it was on Shi Sheng's wrist.
Shi Sheng leaned against the driver's seat and swung his wrist, unable to take his eyes off the sparkling pendant.
Xi Yin looked at her childish behavior with amusement.
"That painting …" Shi Sheng put down his hand and turned around, a hesitant expression on his face.
"My mother painted it," Xi Yin answered naturally. "That's only half of it. There's still the other half. I'll take you to see it when I have time."
She lifted Shi Sheng from the driver's seat and placed him on her lap. Her fingertips brushed against the red string on his wrist, and she rested her chin on his shoulder. "I've never seen this painting in its entirety. My mother said that when I find the other half of it someday, that person will bring me hope."
"But … there's a huge age gap between us." Shi Sheng was dumbfounded. What era was Xi Yin's mother from?
How could she be so sure that the painting would end up in a girl's hands? What if it ended up in a man's hands?
Xi Yin held Shi Sheng's hand and didn't say anything else.
The most important thing was that they had met, right?
The two of them chatted in the car until night fell. Only then did Shi Sheng remember that he still had work to do.
"Beauty misleads." Shi Sheng rubbed Xi Yin's head.
Xi Yin's hair stood on end, making him look very adorable.
Shi Sheng almost couldn't resist doing him in the car.
Beauty misleads.
If this was in ancient times, she would definitely be a fatuous ruler.
…
The ancient castle was brightly lit at night, and the fragrance of roses filled the air.
Shi Sheng was still wearing the same black dress as before. He held onto Xi Yin's arm as they walked into the castle.
"Please show me your invitation." The attendant standing guard outside the castle was a little puzzled. Why were they so late?
But the two of them were really good-looking. When they stood together, it was as if they were a match made in heaven.
Hmm …
The woman looked a little familiar.
Shi Sheng couldn't use the invitation in his hand, so she looked at Xi Yin.
Xi Yin, "…" Why are you looking at me? I don't have an invitation.
Fine, it's not that I don't have one. I just threw it away.
Shi Sheng, "…"
What happened to being pretentious? As a great villain, shouldn't you be showing your face?
Xi Yin felt very wronged. Their levels were too low, so they didn't recognize him!
The two of them communicated silently with their eyes. The attendant beside them looked at them strangely.
Were they trying to sneak into the banquet?
Shi Sheng was irritated.
What the hell were they pretending to be pretentious for?
They couldn't even get in.
Shi Sheng took out her phone and asked Rui Yi to come out and pick her up.
Rui Yi had probably just come out from a pile of women. He was full of the fragrance of roses, and his clothes were still twisted from being pulled.
"Little princess, why are you blocked outside again?" Rui Yi went forward to give Shi Sheng a bear hug. Shi Sheng hurriedly hid behind Xi Yin. When Rui Yi was about a palm's width away from Xi Yin, he abruptly stopped, and his expression changed.
He slowly put down his arms and bowed like an aristocrat. "Lord Xi Yin."
But in his heart, he kept complaining.
Lord Xi Yin? He couldn't even get through the door.
His little princess would only suffer if she followed him.
No, he had to quickly correct his little princess's worldview and find a good man.
Xi Yin's lips curled up slightly. "Brother-in-law, there's no need to be so polite."
What the hell?
What kind of address was' brother-in-law '?
Rui Yi looked up at Shi Sheng. Shi Sheng's eyes curved into crescents as he raised his wrist and waved it.
When Rui Yi saw the thing on Shi Sheng's wrist, his expression changed again. He couldn't help but look at Xi Yin a little more carefully.
He tugged at his clothes and straightened his posture. With a straight face, he said seriously, "Call me 'brother-in-law' a few more times."
Shi Sheng: "..."
Why aren't you following the script?
Xi Yin was also a little speechless by Rui Yi's reaction, but he still called her a few times.
After all, they were her family. Even though they weren't blood relatives, she still seemed to like them quite a bit.
Shi Sheng's strange gaze drifted toward Xi Yin. This great villain was very down-to-earth!
"Fine, fine. Don't think that I'll accept you just because you called me that. Let me tell you, if my little princess suffers even the slightest bit of injustice, I'll skin you alive." Rui Yi led the two of them inside.
They left behind a group of dumbfounded attendants. Was that Her Highness Mi Nai just now? Didn't Her Highness Mi Nai arrive a long time ago? When did she leave? Why didn't they see her? Also, when did Her Highness Mi Nai have a partner?
*
Shi Sheng: My heart hurts when I can't sleep with my partner. I need votes to comfort myself.
