Ji Ling's eyes were full of horror, watching the man kiss down fiercely, he desperately wanted to struggle, but the man's hand was like cast iron, like a ruthless tyrant, which made him feel so fragile and small , did not give him any chance to resist and escape at all.
Ji Ling thought in his heart, no, is he going to be fucked like this
Be careful not to hide, escape Jing Sui but not Carlos...
The man's kiss fell on his neck little by little, and the cold water waves swayed gently, making his blood seem to be frozen.
He seems to have returned to the previous life, when this terrible man appeared in front of him from the sky, and walked towards him step by step. There was still blood on the man's body that hadn't dried up, and his eyes were cold and without warmth...
At that moment, he realized so clearly that he might die, because he appeared in a place where he shouldn't be, and saw someone who shouldn't be seen. At the critical moment, he made a desperate decision and chose to take the initiative to step forward—he made the right bet that time. .
Ji Ling's body trembled slightly, his eyelashes were stained with water, and he opened his lips and shouted in a low voice: "Uncle Carlos..."
This trembling call caused the man's movements to pause slightly, and he raised his head, revealing a pair of ruthless eyes.
The boy's blue eyes were full of water, and tears flowed down his cheeks, so sad and helpless, like a child who had nowhere to go, lost his last trust and support, so desperate, but unwilling , looked at him with the eyes of the last hope: "You are the person I trust the most, why do you treat me like this..."
The words, which were obviously light and fluffy, fell into Carlos' ears, but they seemed to carry a mighty force, instantly suppressing the violent jealousy in Carlos's chest, leaving only the pain that tore his heart.
Carlos stared fixedly at the boy.
As if returning to the previous life, on that desolate and lonely planet, the boy stood in the dark place, looked at him sadly, and asked him, is it really you, Uncle Carlos...
That was a scene that he would never forget throughout his life, accompanying him until the moment of death.
What was he doing just now
He once vowed to protect the boy in this life and never hurt him again. He lured the boy to his side at all costs in order to love him better, not to make him sad.
He should have been more patient.
But now, just because the boy gave him a negative answer, he doesn't want to endure it any longer, wants to possess him and hurt him, and smash all the boy's trust and dependence on him...
He actually thought of such a cruel thought.
I don't know how long it has been.
Carlos let go of his hand slowly, covered the pain in his eyes, and let out a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry, I just love you so much."
Ji Ling didn't answer him, he seemed to be extremely sad and disappointed, he staggered out of the lake, lost his mind in a panic, turned around and was about to leave here.
Carlos took a step forward, remembering to hold the boy's hand, but the boy who had been docile and obedient before avoided him this time, biting his lips, refusing to look at him no matter what.
Carlos looked at his empty palm for a long time, then twitched the corners of his mouth mockingly.
... ... ...
Ji Ling kept silent along the way, sitting curled up in a corner, letting his wet clothes stick to his body, closing his eyes and not saying a word to Carlos, until he got home, shutting himself in the room without looking back. into the house.
Today - too dangerous!
Ji Ling took a deep breath and paced back and forth in the room, very anxious.
He originally thought that the fake marriage contract with Carlos was to protect himself, but now he realized that it was actually a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and Carlos also had evil intentions towards him! And to do that kind of thing to himself without hesitating to tear his face, Ji Ling is going crazy with this world where everyone bends over!
Ji Ling: [Why do men in this world want to sleep with men:)]
The system gave a weak reminder: [This is the world of Danmei literature...]
Ji Ling: [So, which spicy chicken author wrote this kind of spicy chicken article?]
The system dared not make a sound.
This is probably the despair of the straight male host who penetrated into Danmeiwen.
Ji Ling stayed in the room all day long, not even eating with Carlos. He actually wanted to go home, but if he went home, he might be blocked by Jing Sui, which was also unsafe. Jing Sui, who turned black on the day of the engagement, still haunted Ji Ling. As for going to other places, I can't protect myself. Who knows if these two powerful perverts will surround me
After thinking about it, I have nowhere to go except Jing Sui and Carlos!
This hopeless world.
It's like choosing the easier one out of the two delivery propositions
Ji Ling: [I think this task is really impossible to do, I want to apply for a replacement task!]
System: [However, there has never been a precedent for changing tasks for hosts before...]
Ji Ling: [Then, have you ever had a precedent for the rebirth of all mission targets?]
system:[…]
Ji Ling: [The world has collapsed into this way, don't you think you are also responsible?]
system:[…]
Ji Ling: [Either change the task, or apply for compensation, you choose one!]
The system was silent for a while, hesitated, and said: [Then I'll go back and apply for you?]
Ji Ling waved his hand: [Go, go.]
System: [But I don't guarantee that it will be successful.]
Ji Ling showed a vicissitudes of life, and smiled: [It doesn't matter, can I be worse than now?]
system:[…]
Ji Ling: [Remember to come back early.]
System: [Then I'm really going, I'm not alone with you, be careful.]
Ji Ling: [You go early and come back early, you may come back to see me for the last time.]
system:[…]
... ... ...
In order to avoid Carlos, Ji Ling began to frequently attend outside banquets.
In fact, ever since Jing Sui confessed to Ji Ling in public, Ji Ling has suddenly become very popular in the aristocratic circle, with constant invitations every day, until Carlos got engaged to him and announced that he was his lover, Ji Ling's status once again welcomed A new peak has come!
He is no longer a useless dude who only appears in gossip and entertainment gossip.
As His Majesty's sweetheart and Carlos' fiancée, Ji Ling's status is the most prestigious - second only to His Majesty and Carlos, and even his father, Grand Duke Ji Ting, has begun to sit on an equal footing. Dude to look at.
No one dared to underestimate him anymore.
No matter how His Majesty fights with Archduke Carlos in the future, whoever wins and who loses, Ji Ling is the person they hold in the palm of their hands. It is always good to please Ji Ling.
Ji Ling didn't like to attend banquets before. When he was on Earth, he was just an ordinary boy, not from a wealthy family. He was even a little shy and introverted. This kind of hypocrisy and affectation of the upper class made him very headache.
But compared to staying with Carlos, even attending this kind of banquet is not unbearable, at least it is the safest and safest choice at present.
So Ji Ling began to accept the invitation, leaving early and returning late.
It is usually late at night when I get home, and I will not meet Carlos, and even if I do meet occasionally, I just pass by.
Carlos never forced him, occasionally looked at him with sad eyes, but Ji Ling also turned a blind eye. He didn't even want Jing Sui, so how could he accept this big villain who had been at odds with him for two lifetimes? He still wants to live a few more years.
On this day, Ji Ling went to Earl Gerrard's house to attend a banquet.
The last time I attended the banquet at Earl Gerald's house was because of Deng Dong's invitation, which was actually just over two months ago, but coming here again feels like a world away, and everything has been turned upside down.
Two months ago, he was still a good-for-nothing dandy that everyone looked down upon, playing and laughing in the corner with a few younger dandies like him.
Two months later, Ji Ling sat in the middle of the garden, surrounded by a group of well-dressed dignitaries who were as old as his father, and the owner, Earl Gerald, personally accompanied him, looked at him courteously, and said with a smile: " Ji Shao being able to come to the humble house really makes this place flourish."
Everyone responded one after another, showing respectful and polite smiles to Ji Ling.
Earl Gerald's mood is actually quite complicated.
He still remembers what happened on that day two months ago clearly. He often held banquets at home, and there were countless dandies and juniors in attendance. He didn't have the heart to remember every insignificant person. Ling also stopped him, he would not notice Ji Ling at all.
At that time, seeing His Majesty and His Excellency Carlos being jealous because of Ji Ling, I still thought it was ridiculous. I thought His Majesty and His Excellency Carlos were just using Ji Ling as an excuse to play a game, and I didn't think that His Majesty and His Excellency Carlos would really treat this useless dude. What's on your mind. He thinks that Ji Ling is just a pawn in their rivalry.
But Earl Gerald has absolutely no such thoughts now. His Majesty will not confess to a pawn in public, and Carlos will not be engaged to a pawn. The two of them will never tear apart the hypocrisy that has been going on for many years for an insignificant pawn. Peaceful, even fighting for it!
The scene at the engagement banquet that day, although no one saw it with their own eyes, the movement was huge and many people heard it.
This news shocked the entire upper class of the imperial aristocracy, but no matter how unbelievable it all is... the facts are in front of you, you have to believe it or not.
This superficial useless dandy is now the apex of His Majesty and Your Excellency Carlos. His status is higher than any of them present. His energy cannot be underestimated. No one dares to snub him.
Everyone looked at Ji Ling cautiously, sighing in their hearts.
Who knew that Ji Ling, who was still by His Majesty's side last time, became His Excellency Carlos' fiancée in the blink of an eye? Things really are impermanent.
Ji Ling has long been used to these people's curious, awe-inspiring and complex gazes. Although he felt a little embarrassed at first, he gradually found the knack, and he didn't have to deal with it if he was not good at it. Anyway, no matter whether his attitude is good or not, and his words are right or wrong, no one dares to have any opinions. Even if he made a joke today, others will have to praise him and say that Ji Shao made a good joke.
It's quite an invincible loneliness...
Ji Ling sat there lazily, listening to other people's flattery, usually too lazy to respond, and when he was in a good mood, he would say 'um', and everyone else would be flattered.
But in fact, most of the time, Ji Ling didn't hear what others said clearly, and couldn't even remember the appearance of the other party.
It's so boring.
But I don't want to go back and face Carlos...
When Ji Ling was distracted, he suddenly heard a commotion in front of him. He subconsciously looked up and found a young man in ordinary military uniform being pushed and pushed towards Earl Gerald.
The young man looks ordinary, he should be a corporal from his military uniform, and he should be from a commoner background from his demeanor and temperament. He looks a bit out of place in front of these well-dressed high-ranking nobles.
The young man's face was flushed at the moment, and he looked at Earl Gerald with incomparable anger.
A beautiful noble girl ran over behind him, with tears still on her face, she knelt on the ground and begged Earl Gerald, saying, "Father, please let him go, please."
Ji Ling looked at this scene with curious eyes. It turned out that this girl was the daughter of Earl Gerald, but what happened? He had attended many boring banquets these days, and this was the first time he saw such a thing, so he cheered up immediately.
Earl Gerald did not face his daughter and her commoner couple with the same respectful and pleasant expression as when facing Ji Ling, but said with a cold expression: "Sally, do you know what you are doing? You let me down so much. "
Sally's face was pale, and she cried and said, "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, please let him go, I promise I will never associate with him again!"
As soon as this remark came out, the young corporal's eyes burned with anger, he grabbed Sally, and said sharply: "Don't beg him, let him kill me today, and I won't leave you!"
Sally was so scared that her face turned pale, her eyes were red and she said, "Jonah, shut up!"
Jonah blushed and said, "I will not leave you, we are in love, why should he stop us? Just because I am a civilian?!"
Seeing this, Ji Ling suddenly realized.
In fact, he had heard of this kind of thing before, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. It is said that for the sake of the purity of blood, the conservative imperial nobles refused their children to marry common people. Once they found out, they would beat the mandarin ducks with clubs, and in serious cases, they might even kill each other directly!
As absurd as it is, these things are real.
Ji Ling couldn't help but think of his original world. It's already the 21st century. In a certain magical country, some people will commit honor murders because their daughters marry men of lower caste, and they can brutally kill their own children. Then, in order to maintain their bloodline and status, the nobles of this world kill those lowly civilians who try to 'cheat' their children, in their view, it is extremely normal.
Most of the time, even if these civilians are killed, there is no evidence of their death, and no one will pursue them. Facing the high-ranking nobles, most civilians do not have the rights they should have.
The fact is that cruel.
Sally continued to plead with Earl Gerald, "Father, please let him go, I can guarantee that I will never see him again."
But Earl Gerald was unmoved. Seeing his daughter pleading for the other party like this, his eyes became more gloomy and angry, and he said coldly, "Really? How can I trust your guarantee?"
Sally trembled, "I, I..."
Earl Gerald said indifferently: "He is dead, you will never associate with him again, so I can rest assured to believe in your guarantee. My good daughter, you were just deceived by this despicable liar , he must pay for what he did."
Sally turned pale when she heard this, and looked at Earl Gerald in despair.
Jonah's face also changed, but when he fell in love with Sally, he had already been mentally prepared, so he regarded death as home and refused to back down, but it's a pity...he can no longer be with the one he loves, and he doesn't want his death to make her sad sad.
Jonah looked at Sally sadly: "I'm sorry..."
Sally was out of breath crying.
The other onlookers looked at all this with sarcasm, with a cruel and bloodthirsty light in their eyes, waiting to tear that innocent young man into pieces and watch him die miserably.
Ji Ling shuddered suddenly.
No, he can't stand it anymore!
It's one thing to hear about it, but another thing to see it with his own eyes. He absolutely can't witness an innocent person being brutally killed by a group of nobles like this!
The guard kicked Jonah's leg, causing Jonah to kneel down. Just as he was about to make a move, Ji Ling stepped forward and shouted angrily, "Stop!"
This voice immediately caught everyone's attention.
After seeing that it was Ji Ling who opened the mouth, the anger on Earl Gerald's face froze immediately, and then he put on a stiff smile, and asked puzzledly, "Young Master Ji, what's the problem?"
Ji Ling looked at him coldly, with displeased eyes: "I said stop, didn't you hear me?"
Earl Gerald was stunned for a moment, then he came back to his senses and said with a flattering smile: "I'm sorry to let this kind of housework disturb your peace, I will take this untouchable to deal with it now! I won't dirty your eyes .”
Ji Lingqi's forehead twitched, who meant it? He gritted his teeth and spoke again, this time the expression was clear and unambiguous, and he said with a straight face, "I asked you to let him go."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone looked at Ji Ling in surprise.
Earl Gerald was even more bewildered.
Doesn't Young Master Ji dislike civilians the most? He has always been domineering and domineering, and he has done a lot of things to bully civilians before... and he has also targeted Ning Yu many times for His Majesty. He is a very obvious conservative nobleman.
They would believe that Ji Shao killed civilians, but what did he mean by defending civilians? ?
Ji Ling looked at everyone's puzzled eyes, and his expression stiffened for a while. Although he was not afraid of what these people would do to him, it was still inappropriate for him to act too abnormally suddenly, and it was too dangerous to expose himself. He turned his eyes, and glanced at Jonah on the ground contemptuously, as if sweeping some insignificant dust and garbage, and said coldly: "If His Majesty is present, you will not be allowed to do this."
Everyone: "… "
After a while, everyone showed a look of sudden enlightenment! They said how could Ji Shao protect the common people, he didn't care about the life and death of those untouchables, what he cared about was His Majesty's attitude! Even when encountering such a thing, the first thing that comes to mind is what His Majesty will do...
With such a domineering temperament, Ji Shao is actually willing to defend a pariah he hates the most for His Majesty. This clearly puts His Majesty in his heart!
They originally thought that Carlos poached His Majesty's corner and cheated His Majesty, so His Majesty did not hesitate to fight His Majesty Carlos. Now it seems... Ji Ling clearly has no more love for His Majesty. It is said that he has always liked His Majesty. Could it be that Ji Ling has His Majesty in his heart, but agreed to marry Carlos? Why did he do this? Whose green hat is it? !
This is too exciting!
Everyone looked at Ji Ling cautiously, not daring to vent their nervousness.
Ji Ling knew what they were thinking with a glance, but he didn't mind at all. He spoke again, and said in a cold voice: "Gerald, I asked you to let him go, don't you want to?"
Earl Gerald was also surprised by the huge green hat. He came back to his senses at this moment, and quickly laughed: "How is that possible! I'll let him go now, let him go now."
Then he turned his head and ordered the servant: "What are you still doing? Didn't you hear Ji Shao's order? Let him go quickly, don't stain Ji Shao's eyes here."
The servant was also stupefied, regained consciousness in a trance, bowed his head and said: "Yes, yes, Your Excellency."
Sally looked at Ji Ling in a daze, with disbelief and gratitude in her eyes. She thought she was desperate, but who knew that it was Ji Ling who saved her lover in the end.
Seeing that Jonah was pushed out, although she wanted to go out, she didn't dare to anger her father at this time, so she just watched her lover leave with worry, no matter what...
At least he survived.
Seeing that the man was let go, Ji Ling looked back lazily, and suddenly felt that the change of identity was not without its benefits. If he was not qualified to meddle in Earl Gerald's housework before, no one would listen to him even if he spoke. of.
With Jonah's departure, everything returned to the hypocritical peace before, and laughter resounded everywhere.
To Ji Ling, this is just an insignificant episode. As for that poor unlucky guy, I hope he will be more careful next time. After all, it is not always so lucky that someone happens to rescue him.
... ... ...
The guards rudely drove Jonah out of the Earl's Mansion, waved his hands and said angrily, "Go away, you're lucky today."
It took Jonah a moment to recover and realize that he had escaped death.
And the person who rescued him turned out to be the well-known playboy Ji Ling, which was too unbelievable, and Jonah was in a trance.
Ji Ling obviously didn't know him, but Jonah actually knew Ji Ling. He had met Ji Ling once at the military headquarters.
It was the time when Ji Ling went to the military headquarters to humiliate Ning Yu. As Ning Yu's comrade-in-arms, he was watching from the side at that time, looking at that dude who deserved a beating, wishing he could step forward and beat him to death.
But today, he was saved by this damn dandy.
Jonah returned to the military headquarters in a daze. In the corridor of the dormitory, he accidentally ran into Ning Yu walking from the opposite side.
The young man with black hair and green eyes was dressed in a straight military uniform. His handsome face looked sharp and deep under the dim light, and his eyes were gentle and indifferent. He looked at Jonah's embarrassed appearance, frowned slightly, and said: " What happened?"
Jonah said disappointedly: "The matter between Sally and I was discovered by Earl Gerald."
Ning Yu frowned even deeper. Earl Gerald has always been contemptuous and hostile to common people. He is a typical conservative aristocrat. Therefore, Jonah and Sally's relationship has never been made public. If Gerald finds out about this, Jonah may be very upset It's hard to get away easily, what happened tonight
Ning Yu looked at him worriedly: "Are you okay?"
Jonah seemed a little distracted. He didn't answer Ning Yu's question. After a while, he murmured, "I met Ji Ling."
Ning Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Oh?"
Jonah scratched his head, looking puzzled and confused, and said: "Earl Gerald is very angry. He wanted to kill me in public. It was Ji Ling who stopped him and asked him to let me go. If it wasn't for Ji Ling Ling, I might not be able to come back today."
He didn't notice the slight change of expression on Ning Yu's face after hearing this sentence, but continued to be puzzled: "I don't understand why he saved me? Doesn't he hate and look down on us civilians the most? "
Jonah has always believed in Ning Yu, thinking that he is a very assertive person, and asked: "Do you think it is because of His Majesty? It is said that he has always loved His Majesty deeply, and he rescued me because of His Majesty's pro-democracy views? I think he treated me Very disdainful, there is no other reason besides this..."
Who knew that Ning Yu didn't agree with his words this time, but looked into his eyes seriously, and said slowly: "No matter what his reason is, it is a fact that he saved you."
Jonah froze for a moment, then blushed, feeling extremely ashamed of what he had just said.
Just because of his prejudice and inherent impression of Ji Ling, he felt that Ji Ling could not really save him, but only saved him for His Majesty, so he didn't take Ji Ling seriously, he was too much! Fortunately, Ning Yu's words woke him up. No matter what the purpose of Ji Ling was, it was a fact that he saved him. Why should he deny Ji Ling's life-saving grace because he doubted Ji Ling's motives and felt that he was not sincere? Woolen cloth
Jonah said gruffly: "He saved my life today, I should at least thank him in person. But, he probably doesn't want to see me..."
The status gap between him and Ji Ling is really too big, and looking at Ji Ling's appearance, I'm afraid he doesn't even remember his own appearance, let alone care about his gratitude.
For the life-saving grace, he couldn't even say a word of thanks in person, which made Jonah very ashamed and blamed himself, and the big man's face turned red.
Standing there, Ning Yu's emerald green eyes seemed to have a strange color slowly emerging in the night.
He was silent for a moment, as if he had finally made a decision, he said lightly, "Let me go there for you."
