Chapter 272 Since my brother can kiss you, can I too?

"cough--"

"Cough-cough-"

A deliberate cough suddenly came from not far away.

Tuoba Qiong turned sideways and held Ai Wanxin in his arms. He gently bit her soft lips before slowly backing away.

He adjusted his slightly rapid breathing and used his thumb to wipe away the suspicious wet marks on the corners of Ai Wanxin's lips. After making sure that there was nothing wrong with her, he turned around.

Not far away, Qin Tianlang stood there with an awkward look on his face, his hand clenched into a fist at his lips in a pretentious manner.

"I...I choked on the wind..." he explained weakly.

Sheng Xiuming, who still looked rather haggard, stood beside him, but his expression was quite natural.

Jing stood aside feeling aggrieved, but this time, he said nothing.

Sheng Xiuming said: "I'm sorry, I came at a bad time."

"Cough cough cough--" A deafening cough sounded, and it seemed that Qin Tianlang was choking again.

Ai Wanxin looked at him amusedly and said, "It's windy, let's go inside and talk."

She turned and walked towards the villa. Jing hurriedly followed her and fell behind Ai Wanxin like a following puppy.

"Sister--" he called softly.

"what happened?"

"Since my brother can kiss you, can I do it too?"

"Huh?" Ai Wanxin paused in confusion.

After hearing all this, Qin Tianlang felt like he was punched in the face, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Is it okay? Otherwise I will feel that I am not as worthy of love as my brother." Jing held her hand and whispered.

Tuoba Qing restrained his urge to go forward and throw Jing off the cliff.

She didn't like seeing them quarreling, and he had just promised not to do anything to upset her again...

Ai Wanxin looked confused.

Although Jing seems to be right, this is not a reason to kiss, right?

"Sister, you have to keep the peace, only then will our big family be harmonious." Seeing that she was wavering, Jing continued to speak.

"Bring it later, bring it later." Ai Wanxin could only say perfunctorily.

Jing didn't insist anymore and happily pushed her into the villa.

Ai Wanxin finally reacted after entering the courtyard.

"What big family...?"

In the spacious living room, Yin Yanhan, Pei Junlin and He Yang each occupied a corner of the living room.

The three people's sharp eyes fell precisely on Tuoba Qing's face.

Tuoba Qing's beautiful honey-colored skin looked even redder than usual, his ear tips were swollen and there was sweat on his forehead. It was obvious that he had not done anything good by calling Ai Wanxin away alone just now.

The faces of the three men were all uglier than each other.

Sheng Xiuming didn't care about the weird atmosphere at the moment. He turned to Ai Wan and said, "I can only talk to you alone about this matter."

Ai Wanxin nodded, and the sentries present retreated into the garden.

"Someone found me last night." Sheng Xiuming said.

Ai Wan was curious: "Who is it?"

Sheng Xiuming shook his head: "He didn't tell me his name or purpose, he just asked me if I was willing to go with him."

Ai Wanxin was a little confused, so she didn't interrupt him.

"I've been thinking about it, but I can't think of anyone who can use me."

"So, I agreed to go with him and find out what's going on."

Ai Wanxin looked at Sheng Xiuming's eyes, which were no longer furious, and thought: [What kind of train of thought is this? ]

[But he is quite courageous. ]

"Is this what you want to tell me?" Ai Wanxin asked.

Sheng Xiuming took a deep breath and lowered his head which had always been held high.

"What I really want to say is, if you don't abandon me, I am willing to serve you, always at your service, and obey your orders day and night."

This is a bit unexpected.

"Why do you suddenly say this?"

Sheng Xiuming looked out the huge French window at Qin Tianlang's back and said, "He told me what you said to comfort Old Qin, but in fact, I know that you took a big risk to protect me for him."

"I have few relatives and a cold personality, so I don't really care about your life-saving grace."

"If I can be of any help to you, I will go through fire and water and risk my life. I only ask you to promise me one thing."

"If these people cross the river and destroy the bridge after Frost City stabilizes, and want to settle accounts with Lao Qin, you should not let him atone for any stupid crime."

"Old Qin had to work so hard to save so many people, but when he left the old city, they soon forgot about him. Who would remember his kindness in saving their lives?"

"They are no different from me, so what qualifications do they have to settle accounts with him?"

There was no change on Ai Wan's face, but in fact his whole face was wrinkled in his mind.

How did these two people make things so complicated?

"I understand what you said. I keep him in Frost City now. Besides the fact that he knows everything about Frost City, another reason is that I want him to do more for the people of Frost City and relieve some of their psychological pressure."

"When the time is right, I will consider transferring him away."

Sheng Xiuming felt relieved and said slowly, "I'll find a way to contact you after I find out the other party's situation."

"Until we get back in touch, what principles should I follow? Please advise me."

Ai Wanxin thought about what he originally wanted him to do.

"That strange man who came to you, the fallen prophet, didn't seem to tell anyone that opening the Hell Well at will would attract the devil who would destroy the world."

Ai Wanxin smiled slightly, her eyes flashing like lightning, and said firmly: "You can tell the truth, and it's better to tell everyone."

------------------

By the time they finished listening to Qin Tianlang's report and sent the two away, it was already very late at night.

When Ai Wanxin was about to fall asleep after washing up, she suddenly started and remembered that she had not done something important, so she immediately closed her eyes and entered the space.

The system that she thought had escaped today rolled in front of her.

The mutant wolf king is now patrolling the old city all day long, and it can't even pull the hair covering its face.

"Owner......"

The system really wants to shrink its round body a little bit more, until it can perfectly avoid the sharp gaze of its master.

"The four knights have all returned, so where are the rewards?" Ai Wanxin asked.

The system turned its body, and the light bands representing its eyes looked toward the red rune boulder above the center of the lake.

A small black ball floated from the center of the lake to Ai Wanxin's front.

"It's this one." The system said with some lack of confidence, "After the shadow returned to its place, it flew out from that."

Ai Wanxin took the black ball as big as a date pit in her hand and felt that it was neither light nor heavy, neither stone nor iron, but more like a piece of wood with a slightly higher density.

"What is this?" she asked.

The system's upper and lower body rotates left and right, which means it is shaking its head.

"Xiaoji doesn't know..."

Seeing Ai Wanxin's eyes narrowed dangerously, the system almost cried out loud.

"Xiaoji is just a low-level service robot. It really doesn't have enough authority. Master, why don't you wake up Seraph? It knows everything."
