Bai Ling and another girl sat on the steps in the corner, and the two of them gulped down the steamed buns that had been cold.

It was already approaching evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast far away, reflecting on the ground where there was still a little residual water stain, making everything golden and quiet.

At night, the lights come on again, and countless people pass by the floor they have wiped clean, spilling wine, soup or tears.

At that moment, Bai Ling looked at the steamed bun in his hand.

She didn't know what this thing was made of, how could she gurgle her teeth to such an extent, if she grabbed this steamed bun and smashed it on someone's head, she probably could smash him with two eyes......

She chewed hard—her stomach was a little sore from hunger by now.

As long as you can eat it, what is it...... It doesn't matter anymore.

In a short time, Bai Ling had already eaten all the two steamed buns in her hand—it was her meal for lunch and evening, but it didn't seem to be enough.

She felt the girl next to her touch her arm.

Bai Ling turned his head, his eyes guarded and vigilant.

The girl was startled by Bai Ling's eyes, her throat moved, and she slowly reached out and handed over most of the steamed buns that had not been eaten.

"Haven't you eaten yet?" She whispered, "If you want ......?"

Bai Ling was a little surprised, she looked at the girl in front of her, "Why let it be given to me." ”

"I can't eat it." The girl said softly, "And you've done a lot of work today, and the two rooms on the east side should have been cleaned up by me...... And you're done. ”

Bai Ling was stunned for a moment—she really didn't pay attention to this.

She exhaled and took the half of the steamed bun handed to her, "Thank you." ”

"I should thank you." The girl said, "What's my sister's name?" ”

Bai Ling chewed on the steamed bun with heavy eyes and did not answer.

The girl said to herself again, "My name is Ai Songqing, the evergreen 'Songqing' of pine and cypress." ”

The name is like a boy, but it's pretty nice.

Bai Ling glanced at her and asked a little indistinctly, "...... Who were you yesterday? ”

"It's my eldest sister." Ai Songqing said in a low voice, "Her father is my uncle, and my father is her second uncle." ”

"Oh, sister." Bai Ling lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Then why didn't she take you to the bed and let you sleep on the floor next to her." ”

Ai Songqing's hands were twisted together, a little unsure of how to speak, "...... It's a little bit complicated. My mother was originally a roommate, but later the family gave her a name-"

"So she's a sister-in-law, and you're a sister-in-law?"

"Yes." Ai Songqing nodded again and again, she looked at Bai Ling, and her heart beat a drum.

Judging from Bai Ling's skillful housework today, she can somewhat see that Bai Ling should not be a young lady from a rich family.

Perhaps the fates of the two of them are similar...... Maybe.

So she plucked up the courage and came over to speak.

"How long have you been coming from Chuzhou?" Bai Ling said softly.

"Just arrived in Heikyo ...... It's more than half a month. Ai Songqing replied, "I was locked up in a prison in Chuzhou before, and I only came here recently." ”

Bai Ling just answered, and Ai Songqing on the side tried his best to think about how to continue the topic.

"Yesterday...... I didn't expect you to do anything with her. ”

"Is she fighting badly?"

"No," Ai Songqing said softly, "she...... It's very good at reasoning, for example, if she snatched your comb yesterday, she will say that this comb is for everyone...... If you don't give it, you're stingy, and other people will hate you. ”

Bai Ling let out an "um".

- This method is indeed quite common, but it is not an intractable trick to guard against. With this level of coercion, as long as she disrupts the other party's position at the first step, she is the only one who is embarrassed.

Ai Songqing looked at Bai Ling, who looked completely indifferent.

Thinking of this, Ai Songqing suddenly panicked, she felt a little frustrated, and sure enough, she still couldn't speak......

Having said so much, I don't know what Bai Ling will think of himself in the end......

Her ten fingers clasped hard, probably she shouldn't have come to talk in the first place, in case she was treated as a strange person by the other party......

At the moment of this cranky thought, Bai Ling had almost eaten the half of the steamed bun.

"I ...... I actually wanted to say thank you. Ai Songqing said the last sentence with difficulty.

"Thank me?" Bai Ling was a little inexplicable, "Is it still for the two extra rooms I wiped today?" ”

"It's not." Ai Songqing hurriedly shook his head, "On the night I first arrived here, you told me that my father and my brothers would be safe......"

"Ah, it's you!" Bai Ling's eyes widened slightly, and she really felt that the eyebrows and eyes of the girl in front of her did look a little familiar, "I didn't recognize it......"

Ai Songqing smiled a little restrainedly, "What's my sister's name?" ”

Bai Ling thought for a while, "Bai Ling is also the evergreen cypress of the pine and cypress, the dexterous spirit. ”

“…… Good. Ai Songqing whispered, "What about age?" ”

"Fourteen...... Fifteen, after the New Year. Bai Ling said softly.

"I really should have called your sister." Ai Songqing said with a smile.

“…… You don't have to thank me for what happened that day," Bai Ling propped up his face, "My brother and father are the same, and I hope they are safe." ”

……

After finishing the day's work, Bai Ling and Ai Songqing were handed over and brought back by the turtle melon seeds.

The control along the way was very lax, and on several occasions, the turtlepaws walked in front almost completely with their backs to them, and did not look back for a long time.

Bai Ling looked at the nearby alley with some hesitation.

Although she was not very familiar with Baihuaya, she also knew that these alleys must lead directly to the outside world, if she slipped away quietly now......

While hesitating, Bai Ling suddenly heard a scream not far away.

Ai Songqing was taken aback, and the whole person leaned towards Bai Ling.

The screams were long, heartbreaking, like coming from the throat of a dying man.

Bai Ling looked with some concern at the source of the voice—she could hear this wail all night long when she was in the Punishment Division.

Every time there was a howl in the distance, Ai Songqing trembled, and the little girl didn't dare to look up, but she didn't have the heart to look at the road in a panic, and she was about to fall forward with a stumble under her feet—

Bai Ling's eyes were quick, and he grabbed her with one hand.

“…… Thanks a lot. Ai Songqing spoke weakly.

"You're welcome."

"Over there...... What is the sound, does Bai Ling know? ”

"I don't know." Bai Ling shook his head and replied.

After a while, the wailing was no longer as dense and frequent as before, but the aftermath was still terrifying, and Ai Songqing was frightened, so he hugged Bai Ling's arm and didn't let go again.

Bai Ling tried several times to pull his arm back, but to no avail.

She sighed silently - even if it was like running, it was impossible to run with such a pendant......

It wasn't until the two of them were taken back to the courtyard of the tower that they really understood what they had just heard—a girl in their house.

Although neither of them spoke to the man, they did live under the same roof for the past few days.

She tried to escape on the way back......

Obviously, failed.
