Qi Niang thought thoughtfully about last night's incident, and later confirmed to Bian Che that the scalded wild cat was not a snowball, so she was relieved, but from last night to now, she has not seen a snowball, could it be that she went to find Yeluya again? Qi Niang was upset, so she went to the place agreed with Yeluya before. But when it was evening, I didn't see Yeluya, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of loss. Although she and Yeluya were more familiar than before, she still didn't know anything about Yeluya.

"What? Is it because you didn't go up to say hello? Li Qiushuang walked out of the bushes and said to the man beside him with jealousy.

Yeluya ignored her, looking at the direction Qi Niang left, with a thick and incomprehensible emotion between her eyebrows.

In the evening, in the courtyard of the Jin family, a cat meow similar to a whimper came from some room, and soon a little guy hurriedly ran out of the courtyard with a blanket, probably because he was too flustered, he tripped and fell to the ground, and then the blanket fell to the ground, revealing a white thing from inside. The little guy panicked and wrapped the white thing back into the blanket, but met Bian Che who had just returned from outside at the gate of the courtyard.

The little guy's face was flustered, he nodded to Bian Che, and said "Er Shao" and turned around in a panic and left.

Bian Che said coldly: "Stop!" ”

The little guy shivered, and stood in place with his head bowed with his legs trembling, obedient and afraid.

Bian Che glanced at the things in his hand and asked, "What are you taking?" ”

The little guy hurriedly knelt down and stammered, "It's just a blanket with a dirty bed." ”

"Dirty blankets? So what do you see me running? Bian Che stared at him tightly and said in a deep voice, "Open it and let me see." ”

Seeing that the little guy was trembling all over, but did not move, Bian Che spoke again, and his tone was a little colder, "Don't you understand what I said?" ”

Only then did the little girl tremble and open the wrapped blanket, suddenly revealing a ball of white fluff, the snowball was curled up into a ball, the snow-white hair was stained with a few traces of blood, and it was wet, as if it had just been soaked in water, motionless, I don't know whether it was dead or alive. Bian Che's long and narrow eyes widened instantly, and the expression on his face was shocked and angry.

"Second young man, spare my life, I just obeyed Miss Lanshang's words and took this cat outside the yard, I don't know anything!" Seeing Bian Che's suddenly discolored face, the little guy hurriedly defended himself.

Bian Che's face was black and white, and he bent down to pick up the cat, and Snowball felt his temperature and shrank in fright. Bian Che secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it's good that he didn't die. He gently soothed the snowball, stared at the kneeling man with his eyes like ice, and asked, "Is this what Lan Shang did?" ”

"The little one didn't know, but when the little one was called over by the Lan Shang girl, he saw this cat like this. The lady said that the cat had attacked her canary, ordered the little one to take it outside, and said that it should not be seen. ”

Bian Che's expression became heavier and heavier, "If you dare to have half a false sentence......

"If the small one is half untrue, let the two young people deal with it."

"."

"Yes, yes." When the little guy heard Bian Che's words, he hurriedly crawled and fled.

Snowball whimpered low in Bian Che's arms, as if crying for the atrocities he had suffered, and Bian Che carefully examined its body, but found no wounds, and the blood on its body should have been spat out of its mouth. For the first time in his life, he was worried about an animal, not because of the mistreatment the cat had received, but because of its owner. If Qi Niang saw the appearance of Xueqiu, she would definitely be very sad. The face that smiles when you see a cat must have a sad expression. Bian Che didn't want to see her sad, I don't know when it started, that smiling face that was unparalleled in the world but never showed in front of him was already so rare and precious to him.

Qi Niang must still be waiting for Snowball to go back, thinking of this, Bian Che hurriedly wiped the blood and water on his body with his sleeve for it, and then walked into the backyard with it.

How do you explain Snowball to her? As he was thinking about it, he saw a half-open door in the room around the corner, and Ye Jiu's voice came from inside. His steps faltered. Looking down the door, I saw that Ye Jiu was holding one of Qi Niang's hands, and his hard face was covered with a layer of soft color under the dim candlelight. I don't know if it's because of my own heart, Bian Che feels that Ye Jiu, who cares for Qi Niang so carefully, is too much of an eyesore, and such a warm scene makes him can't help but want to destroy it.

"If I hadn't heard the cook tell me, I wouldn't have known that you were so badly injured, be careful in the future, don't let me worry." Ye Jiu put a bottle of medicine in Qi Niang's hand.

Do you even know about the two of them? There seemed to be a fire burning in Bian Che's heart, and he couldn't tell whether he was jealous, or if he had a strong conceit that he didn't allow the people around him to be so close in front of him, something he had never had before, how could Ye Jiu get it! Ye Jiu definitely can't stay here anymore! Be sure to send him to the Windy City as soon as possible!

When Ye Jiu came out of Qi Niang's room, he found that Bian Che was standing outside the door with an iron face, staring at Qi Niang coldly, and did not look at him. Ye Jiu's gaze moved down and saw Bian Che holding a cat in the crook of his arm.

"Snowball!" Qi Niang exclaimed in surprise after a while, and then ran out, staring at the cat in Bian Che's hand, and seeing the kitten's appearance, her eyes sank.

Bian Che put the cat into her arms and said coldly: "This stupid cat hurt Lanshang's canary, this time give a lesson, take care of your cat, and next time, you will never be spared." ”

Qi Niang's face turned white, her lips trembled slightly, it seemed that she had guessed what had happened to Xueqiu, and a kind of punitive pleasure suddenly rose in Bian Che's heart, he smiled, and then turned to leave. However, this pleasure was fleeting, and he felt a trace of remorse, he obviously wanted to reassure her, why did it turn out like this? He became less and less aware of what he was doing.

Lan Shang Cheng looked at the man in front of him who was not angry and arrogant, he didn't know why Bian Che chose to come over tonight, since the first time he asked her for her under the influence of Mixiang, he hadn't touched her again. Although Lan Shang, who was lucky enough to be favored, thought about this man every day, but today she was very scared when she saw him suddenly arrive. Lan Shang followed Bian Che in horror, watching him walk to a corner next to the tub in the inner room, and the corner of his eyes swept over a wooden barrel that he had time to clean. The bucket contained more than half a bucket of water, and there were a few remaining white hairs floating on the surface of the water. On the ground next to the barrel, there was a soaked pillow.

Bian Che's eyes immediately appeared in front of the petite and lovely Lan Shang using a pillow to press the snowball to the ground, which would not leave a wound on the snowball's body, and could vent his anger in this way. The corners of his mouth slightly hooked a cold arc, and he turned his back and said, "It's good if you are a killer, you must be ruthless, you must be even better than what Ye Sixteen did." ”

Bian Che's tone was neither light nor serious, so that Lan Sheng couldn't understand whether he was praising himself or warning himself. She said timidly: "Landlord, Lan'er knows that she is wrong, Lan'er is just angry that the cat hurt the canary that the old lady specially gave me, and I just want to punish it a little." Lou mainly wants to punish Lan'er for a cat, and Lan'er accepts it. He choked up as he spoke.

Bian Che turned around and saw Lan Shang's eyes full of grievances, and the pearl-like tears seemed to flow inexhaustibly, and the pear blossoms brought rain, so untouchable. However, this kind of sharp weapon against men is of no use to Bian Che, he seems to be smiling, touching Lan Shang's cheek, and said in an unclear tone: "How can I punish you." Go to sleep. Remember to clean up the mess and do things neatly. ”

Lan Sheng thought that Bian Che was angry, and hurriedly threw herself into Bian Che's arms in a panic, trying to keep him, "Landlord, do you blame me for hurting Seventh Sister's cat, but that canary is also Lan'er's beloved thing!" I know that the landlord attaches great importance to his sister, in terms of martial arts, means and appearance, Lan'er is naturally not as good as her sister, but Lan'er has one thing that is far above her sister, that is, she likes the landlord's heart. This is as sincere as my sister's feelings for Ye Jiu! And even more! ”

I don't know if it was mentioned intentionally or unintentionally, Lan Shang's last sentence once again stimulated Bian Che. Even though they knew that most of the rumors about Qi Niang and Ye Jiu were spread by Lan Shang, everyone unanimously agreed. He interrupted her irritably: "Enough! It's just a cat, and you're getting too nervous. Qi Niang is my weapon, I value her because I want to sharpen her into my sharpest blade, which is the same as me reusing Ye Jiu, understand? He tried to suppress the growing emotions in his heart.

Lan Sheng nodded as if she didn't understand, but still looked at Bian Che in disbelief.

Fortunately for Lan Shang, Bian Che did not snub her because of this incident, and still doted on her, which made her feel a little relieved. However, what made her haunted was that Bian Che only met her material needs infinitely, and never made intimate gestures to her. and secretly asked Yu Mingyang to invite the best veterinarian in the capital for the white cat who had been abused by himself, but the funny thing is that Qi Niang didn't know all this.

Snowball, which gradually recovered to health, soon found a playmate, a stray cat would often sneak in from the backyard on time in the evening, and sometimes, Qi Niang would give the stray cat some food when feeding Snowball.

One day, Qi Niang was teasing Xueqiu, who had just eaten, when she saw that Xueqiu, who was still well, suddenly stood up, and then hesitated for a while, then walked outside the yard, walked a few steps and looked back at Qi Niang, as if to lead her somewhere. Qi Niang followed it all the way to a corner outside the courtyard, only to see a pool of blood on the ground, and Qi Niang's heart jumped. Following the bloodstains, a black cat lay on the ground, its belly had been shaved open, and its internal organs were exposed to the air, giving off a disgusting smell. The tragic scene in front of her made her eyes widen in horror, and a gushing feeling of vomiting overflowed, Qi Niang immediately lay down on the trunk of the tree on the side, endured the discomfort in her stomach, and it took a long time to recover.

Scenes of the past came to mind, the hideous and twisted faces of the father and Erniang, the brutally cut abdomen, the intestines and dirty liquid flowing all over the ground......

Qi Niang suppressed the anger in her heart and left with a snowball.

She didn't want to see it a second time.

Qi Niang came to Lan Shang's room and knocked on the door, and after a while, Lan Shang's beautiful little face appeared behind the door.

"Seventh sister, why are you here?" Lan Shang is half puzzled, half surprised, or just a beautiful mask.

Since Lan Sheng was favored, she stayed by Bian Che's side all day long, and the two rarely talked together.

Qi Niang looked at her beautiful and lovely little face, which was full of joy and innocent smile, but her heart was cold, and she said without any expression on her face: "Lan Shang, I have something to tell you." ”
