Around...
Qiao Nian's eyes unconsciously glanced to the side, and instantly understood what Xiao Heng meant.
What is around?
All around, they are his people.
He was telling her that she couldn't leave today.
Insisting in vain would only hurt others and yourself.
Chu Zhiyi could clearly feel that the weight that was leaning on his back just now was retreating little by little.
His eyebrows unconsciously sank.
He heard Qiao Nian's voice slowly sounding behind him, "Brother Bai is my lifesaver. I asked him to take me away. Don't make things difficult for him."
The voice was trembling with a little bit of imperceptible vibration.
Chu Zhiyi heard it, and his hands clenched into fists unconsciously.
As a man, how could Xiao Heng not see what Chu Zhiyi was like now?
He could see that the hunter in front of him was reluctant to part with Nian Nian.
It was not surprising.
His Nian Nian was so beautiful that it was normal for people to like her.
But, a mere hunter dared to dream!
He then said lightly, "Come here."
These two short words seemed like an ultimatum to her.
His eyes were always fixed on Chu Zhiyi, a provocation from the victor.
Qiao Nian took a deep breath and walked out from behind Chu Zhiyi. He paused, feeling unwilling, but could only walk towards Xiao Heng.
Under Xiao Heng's indifferent expression was a rapidly beating heart.
Looking at Qiao Nian walking slowly towards him, his heart was filled with excitement.
So, he slowly stretched out his hand towards her.
Qiao Nian walked in front of him, lowered her eyes and glanced at his outstretched hand, but did not move.
Escaped from death once, but in the end, she still could not escape the shackles of the capital.
This one and a half months was like a dream.
After waking up from the dream, she was still the sad Qiao Nian.
Xiao Heng's hand paused for a while before he let it go.
There was a trace of loneliness in his heart, but he deliberately ignored it.
He ordered someone to bring the horse and handed the reins to Qiao Nian.
In order to disguise, the board on Qiao Nian's left leg had been removed, so Xiao Heng didn't know that Qiao Nian's left leg was injured.
At this moment, Qiao Nian held the reins, thinking that if she couldn't ride back on horseback, Xiao Heng would definitely ask her to ride with him.
She didn't want to.
So she gritted her teeth and prepared to get on the horse.
Unexpectedly, Chu Zhiyi's low voice came, "Take the carriage! Her leg hasn't healed yet."
These words were said to Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng subconsciously looked at Qiao Nian's legs, and his eyes sank.
No wonder she staggered when she walked towards him just now.
So, he asked someone to bring the delivery carriage over, and he drove the carriage himself and took Qiao Nian away.
The carriage went farther and farther.
Chu Zhiyi stood there, watching quietly.
He saw Qiao Nian sitting in the carriage, looking back at him, and then shook his head.
He understood what she meant.
He led the Tiger Guards in hiding for eight years, away from the capital, away from all disputes.
Their life now is peaceful and calm.
His brothers have all started families.
Such a life should not be broken.
…
"What if she gets beaten again?"
In a room in the backyard of Fulai Restaurant, the atmosphere was unusually silent.
But the eleventh brother couldn't help but speak.
He looked at Chu Zhiyi, with some worry in his eyes, "Didn't the eldest brother say that she was covered with scars?"
She has such unreliable parents and brother.
And a paranoid and selfish ex-lover.
Even if she won't get beaten again, her life in Beijing will not be easy.
If she could live well, why would she go to the gates of hell?
Chu Zhiyi's eyebrows sank slightly, but he didn't speak.
The huge room fell silent again, and it was so quiet that it seemed that everyone's heartbeat could be heard clearly.
After an unknown period of time, the second brother spoke, "Have you ever thought about returning to Beijing?"
He thought about it.
He thought about it many times.
Especially after seeing the wanted order of the bandits, he thought that the honor that the brothers had earned for the Tiger Guards at the cost of their lives must not be ruined by a few vicious bandits.
However, he never dared to mention it.
Compared with the capital, life here is too comfortable.
He could even foresee that he might encounter all kinds of problems after returning to Beijing, and maybe even lose his life.
However, he would often think of the years when he was with his brothers and was full of vigor.
"I thought about it."
A voice came, it was Lao Shi.
He looked at Chu Zhiyi, his voice was low and solemn, "I followed my elder brother at the beginning because I wanted to defend my country."
Instead of hiding in an unknown village and being an ordinary hunter.
"I thought about it too."
"Me too."
At one time, several people followed suit.
Back then, they were brave and good at fighting, and followed Chu Zhiyi to fight in order to make achievements.
They were full of passion.
They shouldn't be left alone in this small town.
Chu Zhiyi still didn't speak.
His eyes fell on the brothers who hadn't spoken yet.
But he saw that those people lowered their eyes slightly and didn't look at him.
It seemed that they didn't want to communicate with him.
But even so, Chu Zhiyi understood.
After all, they were no longer alone, and they had families behind them.
He exhaled a breath of foul air.
Chu Zhiyi finally spoke, "If Jing Yan hadn't been with me back then, I might not have been able to hold on until you came. This is what I owe Jing Yan, and I'll go and pay him back."
"Those who are willing to go with me, pack your bags now, and those who are unwilling to go, move out of your current residence as soon as possible."
After that, Chu Zhiyi stood up, picked up the cup in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "It is my honor to have you as brothers in this life. I will use tea instead of wine to toast you all, and from now on, let's go our separate ways!"
After that, he drank it all in one gulp.
It's not that he was cruel, but he couldn't predict what would happen after returning to Beijing.
He could only cut off ties with them at this moment, so as not to implicate them in the end.
Several people who were willing to go with Chu Zhiyi also drank the tea in the cup immediately.
Those who had not expressed their opinions looked at the cup in front of them, but their breathing became more and more rapid.
Finally, he picked it up and drank it. "I will go back to Beijing with my elder brother. How can I let my newly recognized sister be bullied like this!"
"I will go back too!" another person followed.
"I will go too!"
The ten Tiger Guards finally made the same choice.
The eight years did not wipe out their blood after all.
On the other side, Qiao Nian certainly did not know the choice of her brothers.
She just sat quietly in the luxurious carriage prepared by Xiao Heng, watching the scenery outside the window go back little by little, with unwillingness in her eyes.
But, what can she do if she is unwilling?
She still has to go back and face everything!
Thinking of this, Qiao Nian's eyes became more gloomy.
Xiao Heng is persistent, and so is she?
So even if she is taken back to Beijing this time, she will not give up struggling and giving up hope!
Even if Xiao Heng imprisoned her again, she will definitely find a chance to live again.
As long as she is not dead, she will keep running.
She will let Xiao Heng know that he can't trap her!
