20demayo Chapter 259
Chapter 259
Nalan Yin stared blankly at Nalan Jingwen's actions. Although her expression was no different from before, he clearly felt that her eyes were softer.
Was she being soft-hearted towards him?
Does that mean she's going to accept him?
Nalan Yin's mind was now a complete mess, her body stiff as a board, and she had no idea where the bold man who had just flirted with her had gone.
As Nalan Jingwen was straightening his clothes, a slight ripple appeared in the air. Her brows furrowed, and she pulled Nalan Yin aside to avoid it. A piece of red fabric was nailed into the wall behind them.
It was an extremely soft piece of fabric, yet it was as sharp as a blade, embedded firmly in the wall. Nalan Jingwen frowned slightly, his eyes deep and thoughtful.
"Miss!"
Jingchi's urgent voice came, and he was about to break down the door, but Nalan Jingwen stopped him sternly.
"Stand guard outside. No one is allowed to come in without my permission!"
After saying that, she turned back to check on Nalan Yin, "Are you injured?"
Nalan Yin turned her gaze away from the shattered wall, lowered her eyes to conceal the danger that flashed in them, and gently shook her head, "Sister, Yin'er is alright."
As he spoke, he reached out to take Nalan Jingwen's hand.
A whooshing sound came from the air. Nalan Jingwen pushed the person away and barely dodged it himself. Looking in the direction he looked, he saw a piece of cloth stained with blood. However, this time, a large part of the wall was broken, like a spider web. The cloth was completely embedded in the wall, showing how much force the other party had used.
"who is he?!"
A sharp voice rang out, filled with overwhelming anger and disbelief.
Nalan Jing looked in the direction of the sound, and a strange wind suddenly rose, blowing her hair. She saw a man who had appeared in the room at some point. The man was wearing a loose red silk robe, revealing his fair and smooth chest. His jet-black hair, as shiny as seaweed, was casually draped over his shoulders. His long, straight legs were hanging outside, and the bright red rope on his feet was particularly eye-catching. His bare feet were red from the cold.
The man's gaze was almost tangible, fixed intently on Nalan Yin.
"who is he?!"
Chi Chenyi loudly questioned, determined to get an answer from Nalan Jingwen.
Nalan Jingwen's expression was not good. She looked at Chi Chenyi with a sharp gaze.
"How did you come?"
Actually, she was happy when she saw Chi Chenyi, which meant that he no longer hated her as much as before. But those two moves just now were clearly aimed at Nalan Yin's life. How could she not be angry?
Chi Chenyi's eyes were bloodshot. He didn't answer her question at all, staring intently at Nalan Yin as if he wanted to devour him alive.
"Who is this person, and why did you let him hold your hand?!"
The voice was suppressed and trembling, as if a mournful cry was coming from the chest.
Nalan Yin's beautiful eyes showed a helpless expression. She cautiously tugged at Nalan Jingwen's sleeve, like a frightened fawn, looking fearfully at the furious man. "Sister, who is he?"
His actions undoubtedly provoked Chi Chenyi. With a crisp hum, Jingchen was drawn from its sheath, the blade radiating a chilling light, and the longsword was pointed at Nalan Yin.
"Calm down."
Nalan Jingwen's face suddenly darkened, and he stood in front of Nalan Yin.
"Get out of my way!!"
Seeing her like this, Chi Chenyi's eyes showed disbelief, and his hand holding the sword trembled uncontrollably.
"You actually..."
"You actually stood against me for his sake..."
"You're protecting him..."
"So, are you going to kill me for him?!"
His eyes were bloodshot, and he was on the verge of collapse. In other words, he had already collapsed the moment he saw that there were other people around Nalan Jingwen.
Why is she protecting another man? Doesn't she feel guilty towards him?
He moved with lightning speed, heading straight for Nalan Yin.
Nalan Jingwen did not dodge an inch, but met his attack head-on, gripping the sharp blade with his bare hands. Bright red blood slowly flowed down his wrist, dripping onto the ground and exploding into vivid blood flowers.
"elder sister!!"
Nalan Yin exclaimed in surprise, her innocent and helpless expression immediately turning fierce, and she looked at Chi Chenyi as if she were looking at a dead man.
He really shouldn't have, he shouldn't have let his sister get hurt!
"Everyone, come out!!"
As soon as Nalan Yin finished speaking, several masked women appeared in the room.
"Owner."
"kill him!"
"Yes!"
Nalan Yin no longer cared who the other party was. Anyone who dared to injure Nalan Jingwen was already a dead man in his eyes, and he didn't need to know the name of a dead man.
"Let's see who dares!"
Nalan Jing shouted angrily, causing everyone to stop what they were doing and look at her. Several masked women subconsciously looked at Nalan Yin, who was clearly stunned, but quickly came to her senses and a strange smile appeared on her lips, as beautiful as the blood-red color of the setting sun.
He tilted his head, his voice as innocent as a child's, "Why did you stop me, sister?"
"He hurt you, doesn't he deserve to die?"
Nalan Jingwen frowned. "It has nothing to do with him."
Nalan Yin refused to listen and ordered again, "Kill him, or none of you will live!"
Nalan Jingwen didn't want to hurt Nalan Yin's people, and even less did he want Chi Chenyi to get hurt. He turned around and stood in front of Chi Chenyi, saying, "If you want to hurt him, you'll have to step over me!"
Chi Chenyi's pupils contracted slightly, and a complex expression flashed across his scarlet eyes, as if he were both greedy and in pain.
The gaze finally fell on Nalan Jingwen's injured hand. He closed his eyes, trembling, to hide his pain.
When Nalan Yin saw her actions, she suddenly laughed, her laughter extremely sarcastic.
"Sister just said she couldn't bear to part with Yin'er and was afraid that Yin'er would get hurt. How long has it been? Was everything you said just now a lie?"
Nalan Jingwen looked him straight in the eye and said, "I, Nalan Jingwen, never lie. Every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart. If you don't believe me, then don't believe me. But you can't kill him."
"Now, I'll take him away. Calm down now."
As she spoke, she took Chi Chenyi's hand with her other clean hand and walked out. This time, Chi Chenyi did not resist, nor did he want to stay here.
"Nalan Jingwen!!"
Nalan Yin stared wide-eyed at Nalan Jingwen's retreating figure, her voice filled with anguish.
Are you going to abandon me again?
This is the fourth time.
"Do you have to leave me so many times?"
Why do you always make me look at your back? Why do you always make me so sad?
Nalan Jingwen paused, said nothing, and led the person away.
Jingchi was guarding the door. When he saw Nalan Jingwen come out, he immediately went to greet him, but was blocked by Chichenyi.
"It's you!"
Jingchi recognized him too, and a look of shock appeared on his usually calm and taciturn face.
How could I not recognize him? This person should be the last person who should be here, how could this be?
Ignoring Jingchi's shock, Nalan Jingwen quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, pulling Chi Chenyi along.
