The man handed the teacup to Linglong again, and Linglong immediately drank it after the result, one cup was not enough, and another cup was coming.

"Do you want more?" the man looked at Linglong as if he were a monkey.

"That's enough!" Linglong wiped her mouth. "Big brother, how long are you going to keep me? By the way, didn't you agree that we are friends just now?"

"Yes?" the man smiled.

"Yes! Why not? From today onwards, we will be good brothers, and if I have a bite to eat, you will have a bowl to wash! No, no, if I have a bite to eat, there must be a bite of you. Linglong smiled and accidentally said that she had leaked her mouth.

"So, big brother, how long are you going to lock me up?"

"When? When you agree to marry me, I'll let you go?"

"I... Big brother, we're all brothers now, you want to marry your own brother as a wife, this taste is too heavy!"

"I didn't think of you as a brother. The man glanced at Linglong with disdain.

"Okay, yes, it's not a brother, we're friends, right!

"My surname is Xue, and my name is Jiu. ”

"It turned out to be Brother Xue Jiu!

"Didn't you just say you didn't know me?

"I, didn't I hear your name, I feel very familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere, I think we are very fateful, you are destined to be my eldest brother!"

"Have you heard? Where have you heard of it? Look at me again, have you seen me anywhere?"

"Hmm..." Linglong stared at Xue Jiu's face carefully, with warm eyes, a straight nose bridge, and sexy lips. I really haven't seen it, but he's really good-looking, if it weren't for Brother Xiao Yi, I would definitely have accepted him, hehe!

"Okay, big brother, I still can't remember where I've seen you, can you give me a hint?"

"Do you really remember me?" Xue Jiu muttered to himself.

"Actually, today I asked the matchmaker to go to your house to propose marriage. Xue Jiu looked at Linglong sincerely, but he couldn't hide the sense of loss in his eyes.

"Today, today, that arrogant matchmaker turned out to be sent by you!"

"What did she say?"

It's not good, I seem to have said something wrong, that matchmaker is actually not so arrogant, that is, forget it, if I say it, won't I smash her sign? No, no. "No, no, I mean arrogant, I mean to speak loudly. "Today it turned out that he came to propose, it seems that what the matchmaker said is not all exaggeration, he is indeed good-looking, he must have a background, and he must have a good look.

"Don't be too pessimistic, your appearance, coupled with your conditions, what kind of beauty can't be found!"

"Then I just want to find you like this?"

"What the hell am I going to do with you? Linglong looked at Xue Jiu a little helplessly.

"Do you remember when you were six years old, you protected a little boy who was older than you?"

"This, I've liked to act bravely since I was a child, and I especially love to help others, what cats and dogs, I don't know how many I've saved, but as for you, I really don't have any image. Linglong bowed her head apologetically.

"That year, the eldest sister I relied on the most married into the prince's mansion, I knew she didn't want to marry, but for the sake of the family, she had no choice. I couldn't stand it, so I had a big fight with my father, but I couldn't change this fact, so I ran out alone in anger. ”

"Then you were bullied, and I saved you bravely?" I didn't think I was so powerful when I was a child, Linglong scratched her head embarrassedly.

"Almost, I was walking on the road alone, and then I was bullied by the wild children outside, I thought that the jade on my body was going to be snatched away, not to mention, and I was going to be beaten by them. As a result, you appeared, you hit three of them, not to mention how heroic you were, I remember that you made a big cut on your hand for this, and you just said that it didn't hurt, and it stands to reason that there should be a small scar. Xue Jiu reached out and lifted Linglong's sleeve.

"Hmm, I remember this is it!" Xue Jiu looked at the delicate and smooth arm a little strangely.

"This, there was indeed a scar, but then my father thought it was not good for a girl to have a scar, so he asked a famous doctor for ointment, and it didn't take long to apply it. "Of course it's normal to have no scars, since Miss Ben has a strong recovery ability, how can there be a scar, but this kind of thing can't be told to others, otherwise others may think I'm a monster."

"I see, do you remember me? After those people were beaten away by you, a big brother came looking for you, and he called you Linglong, and I wrote it down. I always thought that he could only be your brother, but it turned out to be your sweetheart, and I saw that I was making love to myself. Xue Jiu looked at Linglong lonely.

"Brother Xue Jiu, don't be like this, I, I don't even know what to say. Seeing Xue Jiu like this, Linglong was inexplicably a little flustered, and she didn't know how to comfort him.

"You don't have to say anything, in fact, I've been lying to myself, thinking that you saved me without hesitation at that time, it must be, alas, but also, we haven't met since then, so what's the relationship?"

"But Linglong, I just want to ask you, do you think your little brother Yi likes you?" Xue Jiu asked Linglong with his head sideways.

"This, my brother Xiao Yi must like me, you see that he hasn't married a wife yet, he is waiting for me to grow up, do you know?" Linglong looked at the side with some uncertainty, not daring to look directly at Xue Jiu's gaze.

"Then you have been sixteen for more than a few months, why hasn't Xiao Yi come to the door to propose marriage until now?" Xue Jiu looked at Linglong directly.

"That is, maybe Brother Xiao Yi is busy, he has always had to help his uncle with business matters, so he didn't, otherwise Brother Xiao Yi would have married me a long time ago. "What's going on today, first my father and mother, and now Xue Jiu, who I just met, are asking me the same question.

"Okay, I can think of your little brother Yi as busy, but, let me ask you one more question. Why didn't he even say that he wanted to marry you?"

"You are not a roundworm in his stomach, how do you know that Brother Xiao Yi didn't say it!"

"If he had said it, you would have just said it directly, saying that he would definitely marry you in the future, instead of making excuses for him. Xue Jiu smiled a little self-deprecatingly.

"I... I don't allow you to say that. I... I believe that Brother Xiao Yi will definitely marry me. Linglong sobbed softly.

"I didn't mean to say that, I just, I just hope you can see the reality clearly, if Xiao Yi can't promise you a future, then, let him give you to me, I will definitely be able to take care of you." Xue Jiu squatted on the ground and hugged the crying Linglong.

Brother Xiao Yi really doesn't have the idea of marrying me? No, he hasn't married a wife, he must be waiting for me, I don't believe he won't marry me. Let me give up Brother Xiaoyi? No, it's impossible. One glance is wrong for life, some people don't just give up, even if the head is broken and bleeding, I have to brave to the end.

Linglong pushed Xue Jiu away violently, with undripped tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, looked at Xue Jiu and said firmly, "My choice, no matter what the outcome is, I will not regret it, thank you for your kindness." ”

"Hehe, I already knew this was the result, why should I humiliate myself? Haha, I'm really interesting. Xue Jiu laughed at himself.

"I see, in fact, I arrested you today just to get an answer. From the day of day today, when I know that your father rejected the matchmaker like that, I know that your father must be a reasonable man, and he must respect your intentions. ”

"But, I don't believe it, I don't believe that you really don't mean anything to me, I don't believe that you saved me without hesitation, it's really just righteousness and bravery. I know that if I invite you to come, you will not come, and you don't know me, so how can you go to meet a stranger?, so I have to make this decision to find someone to take you captive, and only then can I ask what I want to ask. Xue Jiu said as he untied the ropes on Linglong's feet.

"You go, if one day you regret it, you come to me, I will always be there. You go out through this door, turn left, there is a gate, just push it open. It's not far from the center of the night market, so you can go out and walk in the direction where the Kong Ming lanterns rise the most, and you can go back to where you came. Xue Jiu said with Linglong behind his back.

"Thank you, Brother Xue Jiu, I won't regret what I said today, you don't have to wait for me, really! We will still be friends in the future, right?" Linglong walked up to Xue Jiu and hugged him, just the purest hug between friends.

"Goodbye, Brother Xue Jiu!" Linglong ran in the direction Xue Jiu said.

If only I had met her earlier, some people, almost, for a lifetime. Xue Jiu looked at the rope on the ground and the teacup that was not yet cold, and couldn't move half a step for a long time.
