The boy's pale face and terrified eyes were like a sharp blade, piercing through Brandon's indestructible exterior like a rippling bamboo, hitting his softest heart, causing a dull pain to stop his steps.

Brandon didn't expect that Ji Ling would be so afraid of himself...

In fact, he just wanted to comfort him.

Brandon looked at the terrified look on the boy's face. For a while, he didn't move forward or retreat. After a while, he made a low voice: "Don't be afraid."

Ji Ling stepped back and had no way to go back, leaning on the cold wall with his back, looking at the tall man in front of him with fear, he was ready to be beaten... Who knew that Brandon suddenly stopped and told Don't be afraid, he was stunned, his eyes couldn't help showing a suspicious look.

He quietly glanced at Brandon's stern and ruthless face, and thought to himself, I've made Ning Yu so embarrassed, and even the gene destroyer was almost used, aren't you angry? Even if nothing else, Ning Yu is at least your comrade-in-arms! Deng Dong, the accomplice, was almost killed by you. Would you let go of a culprit like me?

Don't be afraid of ghosts!

As long as he thought that he was likely to be beaten into a puddle of flesh by the angry marshal and then sent back to life, Ji Ling's legs were a little soft, and he said in a cowardly tone: "You, if you touch me, my father will not Let go of you!"

Ji Ling stared at him desperately, but his trembling body completely exposed his heart...

Brandon: "..."

He looked at the young man who was obviously terrified, but pretended to be stubborn and arrogant. He didn't know if he was angry or funny... His heart was full of helplessness, distress and pity.

If it was my previous self, I would only feel contempt and disgust when I saw this scene, thinking that he was just another scoundrel who was greedy for life and fear of death.

But now, he can no longer feel the slightest resentment towards the young man.

The boy's fear at the moment is not a fake. He was born on the extravagant and prosperous Emperor Star and has been cared for since he was a child. In essence, he is just a timid child who is afraid of pain... But he is born and looks timid and timid, but he can also Stepping across a sea of ​​swords and fires, when everyone gave up, he risked his life to appear in front of him.

To save someone who looked down on him and hurt him.

What kind of goodness is this?

What kind of courage is needed?

Although the boy looks no different from other dudes on the surface, at critical moments, his courage and kindness are no less than that of any soldier who defends his country and his country. He has a more fearless and bright heart than anyone else. ...however, they didn't get the respect and respect they deserved.

Everyone saw Ning Yu's goodness, but no one saw him.

This is so unfair.

The pain was like a hand around Brandon's heart.

He looked at the young man's wary and fearful eyes. Although he wanted to step forward, he was afraid to scare him. After a long while, Brandon pulled the corner of his mouth, showing a rare stiff smile, trying to show that he was not angry, and said slowly, "I won't touch you."

Ji Ling looked at Brandon's "cold and weird" grim smile, and suddenly felt even more terrifying!

He had never seen Brandon smile at him in his entire life. Brandon was originally an unsmiling character, and he always showed a cold-blooded image. He seldom smiles even at his friends, let alone smiles at himself with such a playful and pleasant face. Usually, it would be good to give away a disdainful look in his eyes...

Also, big brother, you laughed as if you were going to send me to the execution ground...

Ji Ling swallowed, looked at him vigilantly and said, "You, what do you want to do..."

Brandon saw that not only did he fail to appease the little guy, but the other party was even more afraid and alert, and his eyes looked bitter.

Most of the people he came into contact with on weekdays were his own subordinates. The soldiers on the battlefield were all rough-skinned and resistant to beatings. It didn’t matter how much he practiced, and he never had to worry about their emotions. His friends are all like-minded strong people, and they get along easily and casually. As for the enemies, it is better to strike directly and coldly.

For him, comforting people is something he has never touched before.

Especially to comfort such a child who is pampered and frightened, as if speaking a little louder by himself might make him cry...

This is simply more difficult for Brandon than any dangerous battle.

And the other party obviously did not trust him and resisted him.

Like a frightened little animal.

Brandon smiled bitterly. He looked at Ji Ling and said in a gentle tone as much as possible: "I know this is not your idea. The gene disruptor was taken out by Deng Dong, right?"

Ji Ling looked at Brandon in disbelief, almost thinking that Brandon had opened the perspective of God, how did he know that the gene disruptor was brought out by Deng Dong? And the point is, why did he excuse himself! What's the matter with this strange tone that seems to be comforting himself...

Shouldn't he indiscriminately beat himself up and take Ning Yu away?

Ji Ling suddenly remembered the abnormal guys before. Could it be that Brandon is also abnormal? ! This thought made Ji Ling almost want to burst into tears. Compared to facing an unpredictable Brandon, he suddenly felt that he might as well be beaten directly by Lisuo...

Is it easy to do the task yourself? The second brush is more difficult than the first brush, and you have to face a group of bigwigs who don't play cards according to the routine... It's completely unpredictable.

Thinking of all the things that happened after I came back, all kinds of sadness came to my heart, and my eyes were sore.

Brandon looked at the boy's suddenly red eyes, as if he had been greatly wronged, and suddenly he was at a loss.

Where did you say something wrong?

Brandon took a deep breath and looked at the aggrieved boy with red eyes in front of him. If someone who didn't know looked at him, he would have thought how to scold him... But in fact, he was not even willing to say a heavy word.

Just when Brandon hesitated and had a headache, not knowing how to continue speaking.

Suddenly, the sound of a cane tapping on the metal ground suddenly sounded behind him, and then an elegant, magnetic, yet slightly dull voice sounded: "Oh? It looks very lively here."

Brandon's pupils shrank abruptly, turned his head slowly, and met Carlos' elegant and profound face that was half-smiling.

A chill suddenly appeared in Brandon's eyes. Just now, he was only talking to Ji Ling, but he forgot to look around. He didn't even notice that Carlos appeared.

His first reaction was to go to pull Ji Ling, wanting to protect the boy first.

As a result, Brandon had just raised his hand when he saw the panicked teenager facing him, like a nimble rabbit, passing by him quickly and threw himself into Carlos' arms!

And Brandon's hand was still in the air, looking stunned.

Carlos seemed to be a little surprised by Ji Ling's 'give his arms and hugs', but he quickly showed a gentle expression, and took advantage of the situation to raise his hand to wrap the boy in his arms, and rested his palm on the boy's shoulder soothingly. tapped.

Brandon gradually regained his senses, hiding the fleeting gloom in his eyes, looking at Carlos with a cold expression, clenching his fists. He almost forgot, now that Carlos hasn't revealed his true face yet, Ji Ling still foolishly believes him...

Ji Ling held on to Carlos's shirt tightly and said with red eyes, "Uncle Carlos save me!"

He doesn't know why Carlos is here, nor his purpose, but until now, Carlos has pretended to be nice to him... If that's the case, then stand up for me! Anyway, you and Brandon have always been enemies. It's natural to protect me in front of him. You use me and I use you. It's fair, isn't it?

Carlos looked at the boy's wet blue eyes, looking at himself as if he had seen a savior. He was so cute and pitiful that his heart couldn't help but feel soft and soft, and his eyes became more gentle.

Although Brandon really shouldn't scare the boy, but if it wasn't for him, how could the little guy be willing to ask himself for help? Thinking of this, even Brandon is not so unpleasant.

Anyway, in this life, I will not give Brandon another chance to hurt the teenager.

Brandon watched the young man rush into Carlos' arms unsuspectingly, and looked at his trusting and reliant eyes on Carlos. This scene made his eyes sting, and his heart surged with anger and jealousy. The former general Ji Ling snatched from Carlos' arms!

In the last life, it was Carlos, the ruthless bastard, who sent Ji Ling into the hands of the cruel, cold-blooded and brutal resistance army leader, just because he wanted to use Ji Ling's death to arouse the dissatisfaction of the nobles against the resistance army. The rebels and the civilians who supported the rebels carried out a bloody repression.

In order to achieve his goal, he sacrificed the teenager who trusted him without hesitation.

If he wasn't lucky enough, Ji Ling would have died that time.

But these current Ji Ling doesn't know, he doesn't know how cruel and despicable this uncle Carlos, who seems to treat him well in wolf's skin, is.

How will betrayal hurt him.

Brandon looked cold, with killing intent in his eyes, and shouted sharply, "Let him go."

Ji Ling's frightened body froze, and he gripped Carlos' shirt more tightly.

Carlos felt Ji Ling's fear, and felt pity in his heart, hugging the boy in his arms tightly. Raising his eyes to look at Brandon, he raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "Oh? Why did you let me let go of him?"

Brandon's fists clucked, he looked at Carlos' hateful face, and wished he could smash his hypocritical mask with a punch! But Ji Ling's frightened eyes, like a shackle, firmly restrained his impulse.

For a long time, he looked at Ji Ling deeply, and said in a low voice, as if he promised, "Come here, I will not hurt you."

As long as Ji Ling is willing to come back, he must protect him well, even if it has nothing to do with Carlos turning his face now.

But... the response to Brandon was just a distant fearful look.

This answer seems to have long been expected.

A look of pain and sadness slowly appeared in Brandon's eyes.

The young man was in Carlos' arms, looking at his eyes, his blood was cold, and he couldn't make any movements. The pain and powerlessness wrapped around his limbs like vines, so he had to accept this fact.

The boy didn't want to leave, he didn't want to come back.

He doesn't believe him.

Do you really want to disregard the boy's wishes and would rather let him be frightened and forcibly take him away from Carlos? Brandon couldn't do such a thing, how could he bear to hurt him again.

Carlos looked down at the boy's dependent eyes, raised his hand and touched the soft blonde hair, and was very satisfied with the boy's obedience. The boy was so cute... How could he be willing not to protect him?

No one can make you unhappy, not even Brandon.

Carlos raised his head to face Brandon, with a slight sarcasm on the corner of his lips, and said, "It seems that he is not willing to go there. If there is nothing else, Your Excellency the Marshal... farewell."

After saying that, he hugged Ji Ling and turned to leave.

Brandon's conditioned reflex is about to be blocked!

But just after taking a step, he stopped stunned, his fists clucked, and finally watched Ji Ling's back disappear in front of him again...

The thick ink in his eyes swelled, like a hurricane brewing.

Now that he is over, no matter what he says or does, Ji Ling will not believe it, he believes in Carlos wholeheartedly.

Carlos...

Brandon's gray eyes are icy cold! You won't be complacent for too long, because this time I will definitely tear your mask and let Ji Ling see your ruthless heart!

This time, I will never give you another chance to deceive him.

Carlos took Ji Ling away, and his subordinates did not forget to take Deng Dong away from the ground. In the blink of an eye, only Brandon and Ning Yu were left in the room.

Ning Yu walked over slowly, he had actually recovered, and with his super S-level evolutionary physique, the efficacy of the medicine would not last long. But he always stood on the side quietly and did not interfere in the dispute between Brandon and Carlos.

He looked at Brandon's abnormal behavior today, and remembered Brandon's last words to defend Ji Ling, his eyes filled with doubts again, but he didn't ask any more questions, he just said, "Thank you for coming."

Brandon looked back at Ning Yu's calm and gentle eyes, and slowly, a sense of guilt appeared in his heart.

Ji Ling came to trouble Ning Yu twice in a row, no matter what his innermost feelings were, at least on the surface it seemed excessive, and it did cause some damage to Ning Yu. But he didn't stand up for Ning Yu in this life, and let him be humiliated like this, all of which made Brandon suffer in his heart.

But how can I explain that Ji Ling has no bad intentions?

Ning Yu was keenly aware of Brandon's embarrassment and struggle, smiled lightly, and said softly, "I'm fine."

With just three words, it's easy to expose everything.

Since I'm fine now, it doesn't matter if you don't pursue Ji Ling, no matter what decision you make, I believe you have your reasons, because I trust you as a person.

And I'm a warrior, not a weakling who can't stand any grievances.

Brandon understood the meaning of Ning Yu's words, and read his eyes. He breathed a sigh of relief and felt more guilty and guilty. After a while, he seemed to have finally made a decision and said slowly: "In order to avoid If there is another accident, you can move to my house temporarily."

He still said it.

But this time, it was not because he was afraid that Ning Yu would be in danger. He knew that after this incident, Ning Yu would not be made trouble again. Deng Dong's end was enough to shock those dudes and make them dare not act rashly.

He let Ning Yu live in his home just because he knew that Jing Sui would see Ning Yu in his home soon and was attracted by Ning Yu.

After all, an excellent person like Ning Yu is always easy to attract the attention of others, and his brilliance cannot be concealed.

So, it doesn't matter if you don't like him anymore... Because there will be many people who like him and trust him, and Ning Yu has never lacked these.

But Ji Ling is different, no one likes him, trusts him, and protects him.

He is the one who needs his own protection.

Sorry……

In this life, I hope you can harvest your love and career well, and I hope you and Jing Sui can be together smoothly... This is the only thing I can compensate you for.

And if this is the case, Ji Ling may give up earlier and will not be hurt again.

As a good friend of Jing Sui, Brandon knows best how ruthless and determined Jing Sui is. Maybe only someone like Ning Yu who is also determined and purposeful is the right partner for him.

And the love of the young man is too pure and fiery, and it will only hurt.

………………

Although Deng Dong was seriously injured, he did not die. He was quickly sent to rescue. With the medical methods of the Interstellar Empire, his life would not be in danger. Ji Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief after learning this.

Now, he finally had time to feel scared...

You are just out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den!

If it wasn't to avoid Brandon, I wouldn't risk getting close to Carlos anyway! And this old bastard appeared so timely, shouldn't he be following him? The thought simply terrified him!

Ji Ling was held in his arms by Carlos, so nervous that he wanted to leave immediately. He let go of the hand that was holding Carlos's shirt, his eyelashes trembled and he raised his head, revealing wet-moist eyes, and said in a low voice, "Thank you..."

Carlos looked at the little cutie in his arms, and his expression was very gentle: "What kind of politeness do you have with me?"

Ji Ling showed a grateful look and said cautiously, "Well, it's time for me to go home..."

With a slight push, he tried to leave Carlos' arms.

But after leaving a little bit, he felt a force on his waist. Ji Ling was caught off guard and bumped back heavily. He raised his eyes in panic, and met the dark brown eyes of the man. Unknown emotions.

An inexplicable trace of unease appeared in Ji Ling's heart... The next moment, he felt the man's very aggressive breath approaching, and the warm breath was wrapped in the man's deep and magnetic voice, which sounded in his ear, making his heart feel densely packed. shuddered, "This is going away? You make me feel like..."

Carlos opened his thin lips slightly, and his tone was meaningful: "You are avoiding me."

Ji Ling froze all over.
