In the dark night, there is white smoke.
Gu Xiao leaned against the car, raised his eyes gently, and looked at Jiang Lixing deeply.
When he first saw this man, he couldn't see his face, but he just felt that the aura on his body was terrifying.
And now...
When Jiang Lixing restrained his aura and stood in front of him, he looked like every ordinary man in the city of Yanjing.
Of course, Jiang Lixing is definitely more handsome than those men.
"You should be able to guess that I have something to ask you."
Gu Xiao finally spoke slowly, his eyes still staring at Jiang Lixing's face.
"If you have anything to do, come inside and talk."
Gu Xiao was Ning Huanxin's brother and his brother-in-law. Jiang Lixing didn't put on any airs in front of him. The two of them entered the Jiang family's old house together.
Turning on the crystal chandelier in the hall, Jiang Lixing took off his coat and looked at Gu Xiao: "Sit down, are you here because of the puppet master?"
"The puppet master's matter is not over yet. Li Luoshi may just be a scapegoat."
Gu Xiao sat on the sofa nearby and looked up at Jiang Lixing.
"You are Hades, you should know more than us, so... actually you know who those people are, right?"
"I have no idea."
Facing Gu Xiao's eyes, Jiang Lixing was calm and composed.
"You also said that I am Hades and that everything in the underworld is under my control. But now, you and I are discussing a group of living people! Their fate is not controlled by me. The mortal world has its own order and laws. I can’t cross the line, you should know.”
Jiang Lixing's tone was very calm, and there was no trace of waves on his face.
Gu Xiao had already put out the cigarette in his hand and looked at Jiang Lixing with squinting eyes: "Okay, then can I ask you something?"
"beg me?"
Jiang Lixing smiled lightly and sat down opposite Gu Xiao calmly: "What do you want to ask me for?"
"I know you will protect Huan Xin no matter what. I want to beg you that if something happens to the Gu family in the future, please protect my sister while also protecting my parents. They... have left this circle long ago. Just I want to be an ordinary couple and live an ordinary life.”
Gu Xiao's tone was particularly solemn.
He seemed to have anticipated something.
Hearing his words, Jiang Lixing nodded: "I can promise you, but... don't you think about yourself? I can also protect you."
"No need."
Hearing Jiang Lixing's words, Gu Xiao smiled slightly: "I don't need anyone to protect me. If I die one day, it will be because my skills are inferior to others. I just hope you can remember your promise to me today. "
With that said, Gu Xiao got up and left.
Watching Gu Xiao's leaving figure, Jiang Lixing sat leisurely on the sofa until Gu Xiao's figure completely disappeared, and then Jiang Lixing smiled to himself.
"You will witness this promise with your own eyes. How could you die so easily?"
Gu Xiao seemed to have forgotten that Jiang Lixing was in charge of the life span of all mortals in the world.
Although there are always people in this world who die in vain and unjustly before their life is over, Gu Xiao will definitely not be one of them.
Thinking of dying in vain, Jiang Lixing couldn't help but take out his mobile phone, opened his underworld system and took a few more glances. Today, Ning Huanxin took on a new task.
Find something to distract her attention.
