19. Questioning
Ji Ling looked at Jing Sui's cold golden pupils in a daze, and when he heard the cold words from his mouth, he was almost speechless.
You ask what am I going to do? Of course I plan to "jealous" to find trouble with Ning Yu!
Ji Ling blinked, showing a heartbroken look, and seemed completely unable to accept such an answer, and murmured: "Impossible, how could you like such a pariah..."
The corner of Jing Sui's lips twitched, and he said slowly, "Why is it impossible?"
Hearing this, Ji Ling had tears in his eyes, and asked in a frantic tone, "I like you so much, why don't you like me?"
Jing Sui smiled, his voice was calm, and his eyes were playful: "Whoever said that others like me, I must respond? How many people should I like then?"
His smile was calm without the slightest contempt, it could even be said to be elegant and pleasing to the eye, and even the curvature of the corners of his lips seemed perfect, but the more calm and indifferent he was, the more he felt that he was not placed there by him. eyes.
Ji Ling bit his lip pale and refused to accept the fact, as if he had to ask for an answer: "Then Ning Yu is a pariah, what is there for you to like? Why am I inferior to him?"
Jing Sui raised his brows, as if he had heard some funny joke, looked at Ji Ling deeply, let out a chuckle, and said clearly and slowly: "Besides the status of this nobleman, how can you compare to him?"
Although he doesn't have much thoughts about Ning Yu now, it doesn't prevent him from looking down on a playboy like Ji Ling.
And Ji Ling, who has no self-knowledge, is by no means a minority among the imperial aristocracy today. They are drunk and degenerate, and they have long forgotten that they were just a weak human back then. They are addicted to their current status and power. Ignoring the weak who are looked down upon by them actually has great potential and threat.
Even though the current empire looks extremely powerful, these degenerate nobles will eventually be the root cause of the empire's decline.
Ji Ling strongly agrees with these remarks, and thinks that the male protagonist who takes the plot is the most powerful! He thought happily that he finally had a reason to go to Ning Yu for a duel! This is an important plot to set off Ning Yu's ability and promote the feelings of attack and suffer!
Although excited in his heart, he showed a humiliated expression on his face, and said in disbelief, "You, you think I'm not as good as him!"
Jing Sui looked at him indifferently, the light in his golden pupils was cold.
Although he didn't say a word, he only met those indifferent eyes, as if he was an unreasonable piece of trash, a ridiculous joke.
Ji Ling staggered back two steps, showing a heartbroken expression, guessing that today is almost the end, just as he was about to turn around and leave, he was suddenly pulled by a strong hand from the side. He was hugged tightly in a thick and hot embrace, so hard that he could hardly breathe!
He turned his head in astonishment, and faced Brandon's stern face like a blade. In the man's gray pupils, there was an undisguised look of worry and pity.
Ji Ling's face was really pale: "..."
Dude, don't do this, I'm panicking if you do this.
Brandon came to see Jing Sui in the palace and wanted to discuss with him about Carlos' recent abnormal behavior. He suspected that Carlos had also been reborn. The reborn Carlos was undoubtedly a huge threat to them, and things had arrived. An urgent point.
But didn't want to see this scene as soon as came in.
The young man took a step back in a trance and looked at Jing Sui's blue eyes. Such despair and pain made his heart suddenly twitch.
Brandon was familiar with Jing Sui. Even if he didn't see everything before, he could guess what happened. He was angry and sad, and felt indignant for the teenager.
Although the young man is not strong enough, he is actually very brave in his heart. Not only can he brave the sword and fire to save me, but he can also risk his life to save you in danger, and even die at the hands of Carlos for you.
What right do you have to look down on him?
To despise him like this, to hurt him?
Thinking of this, Brandon was almost furious. He held Ji Ling in his arms tightly, looked at Jing Sui with cold and sharp eyes, and said coldly, "What are you doing?"
Jing Sui frowned slightly. The last time he was at the banquet, he felt that something was wrong with Brandon. Now that he saw Brandon defending Ji Ling like this again, his eyes sank and his thin lips pursed tightly.
Ji Ling was a little dumbfounded when he saw this scene, but he quickly recovered, lest the reborn Brandon continue to confront Jing Sui and say something he shouldn't have said, which caused trouble for himself in the plot, and finally revealed a little bit. anxious look.
It doesn't matter if you are reborn, it doesn't matter, do whatever you like... But don't hurt me, don't hurt my lovable and lovely protagonist!
Ji Ling blinked his eyes with tears in his eyes, took a deep breath, and said loudly, "Let me go!"
Brandon felt anxious and pity in his heart just now, and subconsciously hugged Ji Ling directly. Now seeing him struggling with red eyes, he felt a pain in his heart and immediately let go of his hand.
Ji Ling turned and ran.
Brandon gave Jing Sui a stern look, and then glanced at Ji Ling, who was running far away, his eyes narrowed, and he turned his head and chased out without hesitation.
Ji Ling pricked up his ears and listened to the movement behind him as he ran. Seeing that Brandon really caught up, he breathed a sigh of relief, and finally led Brandon away from Jing Sui. He had to find a chance to solve it alone. Take this trouble.
He dexterously wandered in the familiar palace garden, turned a corner, his eyes quickly swept across the stones on the ground in front of him, deliberately rushed over without looking at it, tripped over with a thud, and felt a burning pain in his palm. , I'm going... It hurts to fall!
Tears welled up in his eyes when he thought of his sacrifice for acting, he sat on the ground and turned around, seeing Brandon striding over, he reached out his hand to help him.
Ji Ling stepped back with his hands on the ground, his face was pale, and he said in a panic and alienation: "Don't come here!"
Brandon looked at the boy sitting on the ground, his blue eyes filled with fear and alienation, and his slender body trembled slightly. This scene was like a sword piercing his heart. Is he so terrible? In fact, he didn't want to hurt him at all...
This kind of Ji Ling made him almost unsustainable, but Brandon remembered his last life and remembered that Ji Ling, because he listened to the rumors on the Internet, and because he was stimulated by Jing Sui, became jealous and challenged Ning Yu, and finally became the laughing stock of the whole network. ... He still took a firm step forward, looked Ji Ling's eyes seriously, and said in a hoarse voice, "I won't hurt you."
In fact, Brandon said this last time, but Ji Ling didn't think about his rebirth at that time, so he didn't believe it. Now have some bottom line in heart. Thinking of Brandon is not a person who likes to lie. The hypocrites are not so afraid.
But despite this, Ji Ling pretended to be suspicious and looked at him vigilantly: "Then why are you looking for me?"
Seeing that Ji Ling was finally willing to listen to him, Brandon tried his best to show a gentle expression, and said, "I want to tell you that you are no worse than Ning Yu, and you don't have to prove anything to others."
Ji Ling: "..."
Big brother, you have exposed the fact of your rebirth!
Brandon looked at Ji Ling seriously, he really thought so in his heart, there was no half-truth in that sentence.
In the last life, he was also blinded by Ji Lingwan's appearance, and he did not see the true beauty of the young man, but he will not in this life. Force value is never an absolute standard for measuring a person. Although Ning Yu is very good and powerful, Ji Ling is no worse than him. He sincerely believes that although the young man is weak, his brave, firm and persistent heart is not inferior to anyone.
It's a pity that because of Jing Sui's neglect and contempt, coupled with the inducement of the group of friends around him, he took the wrong path step by step, and finally put himself in a situation of doom.
In this life, he didn't want to see the young man follow the path of the previous life again.
He could have been better off.
Brandon bent down and carefully helped Ji Ling up, his movements were unprecedentedly gentle, as if he was supporting a fragile treasure. He looked at the bloodshot from the boy's palm in distress, held the boy's hand and gently wiped the blood with his sleeve, said solemnly: "You're fine, really."
Ji Ling looked at Brandon's stern face, and saw him say such words so solemnly. Although such a simple compliment was too crude and rhetorical compared to Carlos and others, he was not good at words. For a man who is a man, it is almost all he can express... He is affirming him very seriously.
But Ji Ling almost wanted to cry without tears.
Although he saved Brandon once in the last life, he successfully used his own bad words to kill Brandon's goodwill, and it went smoothly to the end without making Brandon really like him. Why do you do it all over again, and you suddenly realize that I'm fine? !
What about the Jagged Marshal whose love and hate are clear and unswerving? Saying that it is a soulful male partner who has a crush on Ning Yu?
It's not good to be so fickle!
But nothing in this world can stop my determination to go home, nothing can stop me from continuing the plot!
Ji Ling once again sacrificed that I don't believe, I don't listen to Da-Fa, stared at Brandon with distrust, and loudly accused: "Don't lie to me, do you think I'm no worse than Ning Yu? Ning Yu is clearly you My favorite subordinate, if it weren't for you, would he, a pariah, have a chance to stand out?"
Brandon's eyes were painful and speechless, because Ji Ling was right, Ning Yu was indeed promoted by him, he opened his mouth, "I..."
Ji Ling looked like you, a big liar, don't want to fool me, pushed him away, and said breathlessly, "You're saying this because you're afraid I'll cause trouble for Ning Yu, right? Stop dreaming, no matter what you say, I'll do it. I won't let him go! Just wait and see!"
Brandon: "I'm not..."
Ji Ling: "You are!"
Brandon: "I..."
Ji Ling: "Don't try to lie to me!"
Brandon: "You..."
Ji Ling: "I'll prove it to you, I'm no worse than Ning Yu, that pariah just wait to die!"
Speaking of anger, he turned around and ran. After two steps, he turned back and warned, "Don't come here. If you come again, I will call. Aunt Shaman will definitely help me to do justice!"
Brandon: "..."
He tried everything, but the young man couldn't hear a word, he couldn't stop him at all, he could only watch him leave again.
Brandon's face was tensed, with pain, regret and sadness in his eyes. He tried his best to suppress some kind of sour feeling that seemed to be jealous, and clenched his right hand tightly... In fact, Ji Ling would not listen to him, as expected. Bar.
Because Ji Ling only has Jing Sui in his heart, and only Jing Sui can make him happy, make him laugh, and make him miserable and sad...
Jing Sui's indifference and disdain were the source of Ji Ling's pain and obsession. Even if he said 1,000 or 10,000 sentences, he would not be able to match Jing Sui's words and eyes.
But Jing Sui knew all this, but he still hurt him without caring, watching him step by step on the road that could not be turned back.
Brandon's eyes were full of anger, and his chest was heaving violently. Even in the previous life when Jing Sui and Ning Yu were together, he had never been so angry. At that time, he just blessed Ning Yu calmly and accepted the fact... But This time, as long as he thinks of Jing Sui's injury to the boy, and the ending of the boy in the previous life, he can't control his emotions.
Brandon returned to Jing Sui's palace with a frosty face, and saw Jing Sui indifferently feeding the cloud-hunting beast there. It seemed that nothing that happened just now had the slightest ripple in his heart.
Jing Sui turned his head slowly when he heard the sound, looked at Brandon lightly, and said, "You're back."
Brandon's eyes narrowed, and he strode over. Under the dark red hair, the thick ink in his gray pupils swelled, and he fixedly looked at the man in front of him who seemed to have no emotional changes at any time or place.
Sometimes Brandon even wonders, in the eyes of this man, in addition to his imperial power, what else can move him?
He remembered the previous life again.
In the last life, he rushed over by himself, just to see the scene where the young man sacrificed himself in front of Carlos and died in Jing Sui's arms... Even if there were many prejudices against the young man in the previous life, he was finally moved at that moment. He never knew that a person's love could be so pure and blazing like a moth to a fire, and he would never regret it even if he gave up everything.
But what about Jing Sui?
He just accepted the fact very calmly, and even his expression did not change much. He first dealt with Carlos, then turned to pick up the boy's body, and personally sent the boy back to Duke Ji Ting's mansion. The Grand Duke said that he would make amends for him... From beginning to end, he handled everything in a clear, calm and rational manner.
Then, he and Ning Yu broke off the engagement.
It was also at that time that Brandon realized that he didn't really love Ning Yu that much, did he? The marriage contract with Ning Yu was more of a political appeal for him. After Carlos died, this marriage was almost unnecessary, so they ended the relationship logically.
As for the young man's death, it was like a trivial piece of dust that was gently wiped away, and it was like a tacit taboo that no one mentioned again.
Many years later, when Brandon occasionally thought of the dazzling but flashing young boy who passed by like a shooting star.
He would always wonder if Jing Sui was the same as him, and he regretted it in the dead of night, but unfortunately, until the last moment of his life in the last life, he could not see Jing Sui's true heart.
To a certain extent, he has always been a qualified emperor, calm and rational, and ruthless.
Does not really put anyone in the heart.
When Brandon chose to support him, he also took a fancy to Jing Sui's heart and thought he was a ruler worthy of following and a trustworthy friend, but at this moment... He looked at the man's calm face, but he was the first This time hated his coolness so much.
Feeling unworthy for a teenager.
You can dislike him or even alienate him, but there is no need to hurt him. In fact, as long as you are willing to be a little tolerant and merciful to him, he will not fall to that point, but you don't.
You seem to have done nothing, but you are always casual, pushing him into a deeper abyss.
Brandon took a deep breath, and suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Jing Sui's collar, stared into his eyes, and said slowly, "I said last time, you shouldn't treat him like this."
Jing Sui glanced over the back of Brandon's blue-veined hand, and the look in his golden eyes slowly sank. The icy and chilling breath made the surrounding air almost solidify. Once the cold and handsome face had no expression, it showed the majesty of the emperor. .
He needs Brandon's support and recognizes Brandon as a person, but this does not mean that he can tolerate such inexplicable offenses.
Jing Sui looked at him, his thin lips parted slightly, and he spit out cold words: "I think we should talk."
………………
Ji Ling shook off Brandon, wiped her eyes, patted her dusty clothes, and returned to her mother as if nothing had happened.
When Mrs. Marina saw him coming back, she was keenly aware of her son's low mood, and said with concern, "What's the matter, baby?"
Ji Ling lowered his eyes and said, "It's nothing, Mom."
Mrs. Marina and Mrs. Shaman looked at each other with a worried look. Ji Ling was their sweetheart, and they all knew Ji Ling's hazy affection for Jing Sui, but... Jing Sui didn't necessarily like it much. Ji Ling, did something unpleasant happen?
Mrs. Shaman was a little embarrassed. It was useless for her to like Ji Ling's little cutie, but her son was a man of his own opinion. This kind of thing was not forced. Abnormal, he said with a smile, "Xiao Ling, if you have time, come to the palace to accompany auntie more. If you don't come, auntie will be angry."
Although Ji Ling pretended to be fine, when he thought that Brandon might disrupt the situation, he still couldn't get excited, and said in a low voice, "Yeah."
Mrs. Shaman sighed softly.
Seeing her son like this, Mrs. Marina didn't want to stay long, so she said goodbye to Mrs. Shaman and took Ji Ling home.
As soon as Ji Ling came home, he got rid of Mrs. Marina and locked himself in the house.
He thought about it, although Brandon probably couldn't bear to himself because of the guilt of the previous life, and ran to Jing Sui to make irresponsible remarks, but he must believe in Jing Sui, and believe in the ruthlessness of the male protagonist. It's impossible to fall in love with this vicious cannon fodder because of Brandon's nonsense. As long as he kills himself seriously, the plot will definitely be saved!
At least he was beaten in the face by Jing Sui today, and he had an excuse to challenge Ning Yu.
In the last life, I finished this episode smoothly. After seeing the scandal between Jing Sui and Ning Yu, I was reluctant to go to question, but Jing Sui thought that he was inferior to Ning Yu, so in order to prove that he had a duel with Ning Yu, but He also knew that he was not Ning Yu's opponent, so despicable and shameless let people move on Ning Yu's mecha, used improper means to attack Ning Yu in the duel, created a chance for the hero Jing Sui to save the beauty, and beat his own again. Face!
If all this was not broadcast live on the whole network, Ji Ling would have to say that the original owner was a vicious cannon fodder with a little brain, and would do anything to deal with the enemy, but in fact he was a brainless cannon fodder...
Even if you use despicable means, don't be seen in public!
When this kind of live broadcast on the whole network has attracted much attention and is seen by the people of the whole empire, using this despicable method to attack Ning Yu, what use is there other than harassing yourself and recruiting hatred!
If it weren't for the plot of the original book, Ji Ling would have suspected that the original owner wanted to fulfill Ning Yu on purpose...
What an admirable spirit of self-sacrifice.
It truly embodies the stupidity and viciousness of an imperial aristocrat.
Having said that, since I inherited this identity, I have to go through this plot with dedication, use my own viciousness and stupidity to set off Ning Yu's perfect and noble, and give Jing Sui a chance to save the beauty by creating a hero, so that he can continue in the empire. Circle powder.
Thinking of this, Ji Ling was once again full of ambition and fighting spirit, and couldn't wait to open his personal homepage. After that, Ait Ning Yu made some arrogant rants and wanted to fight Ning Yu! Showdown!
After the news was sent, it was immediately forwarded by countless people and major media, and quickly became a hot spot on the entire network.
The well-known dandy young master, Ji Ling, the only son of Grand Duke Ji Ting, is going to challenge a national idol like Ning Yu, a fighting hero!
Ning Yu's fans immediately ridiculed Ji Ling mercilessly from beginning to end. Even the nobles who wanted to stand on Ji Ling's side didn't know how to defend Ji Ling. After all, this behavior was too self-aware...…
But Ji Ling didn't care about the ridicule on the Internet at all, he just stared at Ning Yu's account, waited nervously for several hours, and finally got Ning Yu's reply, with only one word: OK.
He accepted his challenge!
