At first, Lan Zhi was reluctant to see Duan Ling, because she was afraid of this situation. She was afraid to face Duan Ling's accusations. But at this moment, she felt the pain that the man didn't want to declare from that anger. Duan Ling's back straightened with his back to her, as if he wouldn't be crushed by anything, but Lan Zhi found that although her brother was strong, she had crossed his tight line of defense and broken his heart.

For no reason, the memory of that snowy night suddenly revived. The man's figure at this time coincided with the warmth at that time, and it was at this moment that Lan Zhi finally made a decision. She walked behind Duan Ling, raised her hand gently, and hugged Duan Ling's waist from behind. Before tonight, she didn't think that she would take the initiative to do this, but she felt so natural that she really made this action. She put her head on Duan Ling's back and said softly, "No, brother...... It's not that I don't distrust you. ”

Duan Ling's body froze instantly. He heard the woman's voice coming, low and soft: "I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to lie to you, don't be angry. ”

Duan Ling slowly relaxed his body. Today's ups and downs quietly calmed down at this moment—the worry when she found out that Lan Zhi was still in contact with the Central Plains anti-thief, the suspicion she felt when she was provoked by Gongsun Liang, and the bad feeling when she faced a mess—all dissipated in this sentence "Don't be angry".

Sticking to his body is unexpectedly soft, so soft that it can make people forget the coldness of a Suri woman. Duan Ling put his hand on Lan Zhi's hand, secretly despising himself: If you don't care about her in this way, isn't he too easy to deal with?

But he thought that Yilan Zhi's character must be going to have a fight with him, but he didn't expect her to be soft so quickly......

- Tsk, really...... When did this girl learn to make men happy without a teacher?

Duan Ling felt that he actually wanted to turn around immediately, hug the person behind him, and then kiss him well. But he tried to restrain himself, and pretended to be cold and said, "Then are you willing to sue me for the reason now?" ”

Lan Zhi was silent for a moment, and said sullenly: "You caught those people...... Most likely my younger brother. ”

Duan Ling frowned, finally pulled Lan Zhi's hand away, and turned to face her: "You said your brother is dead. ”

Since Lan Zhi opened her mouth, she didn't plan to hide it anymore, otherwise Duan Ling would be suspicious and go to investigate again, if there was any movement, it would cause trouble for Ren Yuanbai. Then he lowered his head and said, "I thought he was dead, but I didn't expect him to be alive and come to this vast heavenly city...... I became the leader of the Central Plains Fines. ”

She didn't know Duan Ling's expression when she heard this, but she felt the man's hand holding her tightly. This made her panic in her heart, and she hurriedly raised her head and said hurriedly: "Brother, you have to promise me that you can't hurt him!" ”

She looked at Duan Ling, her eyes full of pleading. Duan Ling didn't answer, and he couldn't see an expression on his face. Lan Zhi became more and more nervous: "Brother! His importance to me is like Duan Guangrong Duan Chengxuan to you. I can't repay the kindness of my adoptive father and adoptive mother, I just want to protect him well for the rest of my life and fulfill the last wish of my adoptive father and adoptive mother! ”

These words made Duan Ling's face sooth. The man was silent and asked, "What is your brother's name?" ”

Lan Zhi opened her mouth slightly, hesitated for a moment and replied: "Ren Yuanbai." ”

Duan Ling smiled at her: "Okay, I won't hurt him." Now I'll go to Ren Qianhu and ask him to release him. ”

He let go of Lan Zhi's hand, rubbed her hair, and turned to leave. Lan Zhi took a few steps to block in front of him, and said almost in a hurry: "Brother, don't lie to me again!" She knew that she hadn't persuaded Duan Ling, so her mind flickered, and she said, "Brother, just imagine, if I kill your eldest brother, what will you do to me?" ”

This strategy of treating others with oneself is very good, but Duan Ling thought about it, but tilted his head and said, "Well......" He smiled: "It may trap you in bed for several months, asking for it day and night...... Until it's gone. ”

Rao was in this situation, and Lan Zhi couldn't help but blush: "Brother! I'm serious with you! ”

Duan Ling smiled: "I've thought about it seriously, too." I will definitely resent you, I may snub you, I may even hurt you in retaliation, but in the end, I will choose to forgive. He held Lan Zhi's face with both hands, imprinted a kiss on her lips, and sighed softly, "Because I can't let it go." For me, there is no one in this world who is more important than you. ”

I hope the same is true in your heart. Duan Ling suppressed the unfinished words, left a little, and carefully observed Lan Zhi's expression, and saw that the woman's eyes lowered slightly, and the panic on her face receded. He was slightly surprised, but he heard Lan Zhi say in a low voice: "Then please brother, for my sake, let Ren Yuanbai go." After all, you also have a responsibility to take care of him......"

Duan Ling raised his eyebrows. His hand gently brushed the hair on Lan Zhi's forehead, and asked softly, "Why am I also responsible?" ”

Lan Zhi tilted her head slightly, avoiding his gaze. Her tone was very soft, but she never hesitated: "Because, you are his brother-in-law." ”

Duan Ling's hand stopped instantly. He almost immediately understood the potential meaning of these words, only to feel that his heartbeat was uncontrollable and accelerated: "Ah Zhi, this is ...... Are you willing to marry me? ”

Lan Zhi was silent, but her head hung lower. Seeing her reaction, there was no need for her to speak, and Duan Ling also knew the answer. He stayed for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Lan Zhi's waist and hugged her tightly into his arms!

But before the joy could burst out, Duan Ling suddenly thought of the current situation: Lan Zhi is neither early nor late, but today she agreed to marry him, is it ...... Is it for her so-called brother?

Duan Ling suddenly felt deflated. He let go of Lan Zhi: "How could Ah Zhi suddenly be willing to marry me?" ”

Lan Zhi inexplicably felt that Duan Ling's words were a little complaining, and glanced at him: "It's not sudden...... I've been thinking about it for a long time. ”

Duan Ling was stunned. Although Lan Zhi secretly deceived him, she was extremely emotional, so in the face of his pursuit before, she would rather delay and escape than promise to respond. Now that you have spoken your mouth, you must be thinking the truth.

So...... She had been thinking about his courtship. She was willing to marry him because of her brother at all.

All the negative feelings are swept away in an instant! Duan Ling felt for a moment that no matter what he did or said now, it would not be able to show his joy at the moment. He hugged Lan Zhi tightly, let go and looked at her with a smile, and then hugged her again for a moment, his cheeks rubbing her hair lovingly: "Ah Zhi...... Ah Zhi ...... When did you make the decision? ”

Lan Zhi tried hard to push him away, blushing slightly: "Brother! You'd better let Ren Qianhu release people first! ”

Duan Ling pursed his lips and said secretly in his heart: Speaking of this at this time, Ah Zhi is really disappointed. But the great pleasure still occupied the body and mind, Duan Ling tried to calm down, and said with a gesture: "You have to promise me a few things before I can let your brother go." ”

He didn't simply agree like before, but it reassured Lan Zhi. Lan Zhi pondered for a moment and said: "Although Ren Yuanbai is my younger brother, he has had his own ideas since he was a child, and I can't control him. ”

Duan Ling smiled slightly: "I don't plan to let you take care of him, I just ask you to stay out of it." You have to promise me that from now on you will not participate in any of their schemes, this is one thing. ”

Lan Zhi hesitated for a moment. She knew in her heart that this requirement was Duan Ling's bottom line. Duan Ling couldn't accept that there was danger beside her, and once she found out, she would nip it in the bud. Now he only asks her to stay out of the matter, thinking that it is for the sake of the word "brother-in-law", if she still does not agree, he will never let Ren Yuanbai go. So he had to say, "Okay." ”

Duan Ling nodded and continued, "Second, I can pretend that I didn't discover the secret of Xinfeng Courtyard, and I didn't know that Ren Yuanbai was the leader of the fine work, but I only let him go this time. I won't help him if he's in trouble in the future, and I won't show mercy if he's unfortunate enough to meet me in a narrow way. ”

Lan Zhi pursed her lips slightly. Duan Ling thought it through. He was afraid that he would let Ren Yuanbai go this time, and Ren Yuanbai would be in trouble again in the future, and he would have to come to his rescue, which would really not be peaceful. So now he will state his position, this "brother-in-law" duty, he only does this once, and there is no reason to worry about the enemy in the future.

Thinking that Ren Yuanbai would soon send the crown prince out of Haotian City, and she didn't want to let Duan Ling get into trouble, Lan Zhi nodded again in agreement. Duan Ling's expression became more and more relaxed, and he said, "Third, you have to take a bath with me." I've just seen that there's a big bath behind this house, so let's go there and take a mandarin duck bath now. ”

Lan Zhi: "......"

She said angrily: "Brother! If you tease me again, Ren Yuanbai will be disabled! ”

Duan Ling laughed. He took a step forward, hugged Lan Zhi, and comforted: "Okay, okay, you don't have to worry, I didn't let people torture." ”

Lan Zhi didn't believe it: "But I heard the screams of men and women, and it was in the private room on the second floor." ”

Duan Ling smiled: "A few years ago, when I went out on a mission, I saw someone in the troupe who was good at ventriloquism, so I took him back to the capital and raised him in the mansion. What you just heard was his ventriloquism. Duan Ling moved slightly, only to feel that the body in his arms was warm and soft, so he was a little distracted, and said absent-mindedly: "If Ah Zhi doesn't believe it, I can let someone pass him over and perform it for you." ”

He dared to say that, but Lan Zhi believed it. She was stunned for a moment: "My brother didn't arrest anyone?" ”

Duan Ling buried his head in Lan Zhi's neck, and his lips and teeth were about to move: "People are naturally arrested, but how dare they use torture?" In case anyone can't stand it and confesses you......" He ripped off Lan Zhi's collar and gnawed it on that shoulder and neck, as if venting his grievances: "...... I'll have to work hard to protect you. ”

Lan Zhi shrunk her neck after being bitten, but she finally relaxed her nerves. She thought of the Huwei Guards and soldiers who were waiting outside the gate of Xinfeng Courtyard, and said, "That brother used the Huwei Guards officers and soldiers this time, but he didn't catch anyone, wouldn't it end badly?" ”

Duan Ling's lips shifted to Lan Zhi's neck, sucked the kiss and pecked lightly, and slowly moved up: "Who said I came to arrest people?" The lower the man's voice: "My sweetheart Qinglou has a private meeting with Xiao Oiran, and Deputy Duan makes Chong Guan angry - even if this matter spreads, others will only laugh at me for being too infatuated." ”

The intimacy deepened, and the unique incense of Qinglou seemed to suddenly become thick, and Lan Zhi gradually felt a little hypoxic, and she couldn't maintain her sobriety. In her dizzy mind, a thought flashed: No wonder Duan Ling was waiting for her in Du Lianxue's house...... It turned out that he had already thought of a way out. But seeing that Duan Ling stopped moving, his eyes were burning at her, and he continued to arrange: "The next day, the two of them left Xinfeng Courtyard together, and Deputy Envoy Duan was already proud. Insiders inevitably pondered a thing or two, what kind of means did Lan Zhi use to make Deputy Envoy Duan lose his anger? ”

Xu is candlelight is ambiguous, Lan Zhi inexplicably felt that Duan Ling's always cold eyes actually had some charm. The man's hand around Lan Zhi's waist slowly moved down, and his voice was hoarse...... Tell me why. ”
