I can't afford to pay you if you die

At that time, I didn't pay much attention to Xiao Fang's words. After getting on the car, he asked him to take me back to the Xiao family's old house. Only then did I discover that Xiao Jin Dong wasn't waiting for me in the living room.

Xiao Manjun, on the other hand, was sitting on the sofa making a phone call. He was a bit surprised to see me enter, but quickly recovered his calm. He said something to the other side before hanging up, getting up and walking towards me, "Song Yi, if that's the case, then you won't die. You really are an indestructible cockroach!"

I frowned, "Xiao Manjun, what do you mean by that?"

Xiao Manjun shrugged, "I was just sighing!" He circled me, his eyes making me uncomfortable. I didn't want to pay attention to him and knew that he wouldn't make a move against me at the Xiao family's old mansion.

"I didn't expect Xiao Jin Dong to have such deep feelings for you. Song Yi, tell me, if Xiao Fang can't get off the car, what would happen to you and Xiao Jin Dong?"

I was stunned. I stood on the stairs and turned around to look at him, "I don't understand what you're talking about. What does this have to do with Xiao Jin Dong?"

Xiao Man Jun crossed his arms as he looked at me, his gaze carrying a bit of a tease, "Come here, I'll tell you!"

As expected, it was still such a childish trick, "Xiao Manjun, you're already over thirty years old. Can you not be so stupid?!"

I've never been polite to him, not out of disgust, not out of disdain.

Xiao Manjun flew into a rage and angrily ran over to grab me. I coldly looked at him and watched as he raised his hand to pinch my chin.

"Song Yi, do you really think I won't dare to do anything to you here?"

"You didn't dare to do it anyway? Old Man Xiao is looking at you! " My gaze was cold, and I could clearly feel the panic and helplessness that flashed across Xiao Manjun's eyes.

I have lived in the Xiao family for many years. Even though I wholeheartedly focused on Xiao Jin Dong, I know Xiao Man Jun very well. Because at that time, Xiao Jin Dong was the least favored, while Xiao Man Jun was the most favored. In order to please Xiao Jin Dong, I have a better grasp of Xiao Man Jun's temperament than Xiao Jin Dong.

He is the kind of person who doesn't have the guts to act against me because he's afraid of Xiao Jin Dong. He doesn't dare to stay in the Xiao family's old mansion because he feels guilty for Old Man Xiao's death.

"Song Yi, you don't need to be complacent. This kind of thing can still happen, I don't believe that Xiao Jin Dong can just happen to appear and save you every single time! " After saying this, Xiao Manjun turned around and left in a panic, as if Old Man Xiao was really looking at him from somewhere upstairs.

I was stunned on the spot as I recalled Xiao Manjun's words. After a moment, he quickly went upstairs and opened Xiao Jin Dong's bedroom. There was no one inside. I looked around and ran downstairs again, but Xiao Fang had already left work.

The lights in the servants' room had already been extinguished. It was midnight, and the entire world seemed to be sleeping, yet Xiao Jin Dong wasn't there.

I paced up and down the open yard, looking anxiously out of the window from time to time. Maybe he had something going on in Zhenjiang. Maybe he was angry at me for not coming back on time and purposely avoiding me. Maybe …

My head was aching and swollen. I squatted on the floor and held my head tightly. There was only one thought in my mind, and that was Xiao Jin Dong.

The night wind is very cold, I don't know how long I waited there, Xiao Jin Dong's car finally came back. The first to descend was Gu Qing. When he saw me, his gaze was as sharp as a knife. I felt a little guilty. My legs were numb and I couldn't stand up. I just crouched down and stared at the open door.

Xiao Jin Dong was supported down. His head was bandaged and one of his feet was covered in plaster. He didn't lean on Gu Qing, and instead leaned his weight on Gu Qing's body. He walked in front of me in such a sorry state.

"It's cold outside, go in!"

His voice was hoarse and weak, and I wanted to get up and explain, but I realized I didn't even have the courage. Gu Qing supported Xiao Jin Dong into the living room. I rubbed my legs for a long time before standing up. When I reached the living room's door, Gu Qing came out. I turned my head and looked behind him. Xiao Jin Dong wasn't in the living room. I probably went upstairs.

I let him pass, but he just stood there, not moving.

I took a deep breath and raised my head to look at him. When I saw the indifference and disdain in his eyes, the corner of my mouth curled up slightly. "Just say what you want to say. I have nothing to explain!"

Gu Qing sneered, "Song Yi, can you stay away from him? As long as you're here, he won't have a good time!"

His words were extremely unprofessional, especially when he didn't want the aura that a trump card lawyer should have.

"That's not something I can decide!" "No," I retorted, clenching my fists and forcing the guilt not to show. I didn't do anything wrong, and I don't need Xiao Jin Dong to save me.

Gu Qing waited for me with all his might. After a while, he walked away, stopped after taking a few steps, and coldly said, "If you want to leave, there's always a way!"

I wanted to laugh, to mock his self-righteousness. If Xiao Jin Dong wasn't willing to let go, who would be able to leave so easily? However, when I turned around again, Gu Qing had already left. The car by the door had turned into dust, emitting an ear-piercing sound.

My body trembled uncontrollably. When I turned around to look at the stairs, I suddenly felt afraid to go up. After hesitating for a long time, Zhang Xuan still couldn't calm down. Furthermore, there were too many questions he needed to clarify personally.

After knocking on the door of Xiao Jin Dong's room, his voice sounded out at the same time. It was obvious that he was waiting for me.

He sat on the bed with one leg on the ground. The leg with the cast tied on it lay quietly on the bed. It didn't look like he was in a sorry state just now. You went back on your word! "

Xiao Jin Dong frowned. I didn't expect that his opening remark would be this, so I didn't know how to answer it.

"I don't want it next time!" Xiao Jin Dong didn't wait for my reply and said, "I'm hungry!"

I stayed where I was, and Xiao Jin Dong didn't say anything else. The air seemed to solidify as a faint medicinal fragrance wreaked havoc in the surroundings.

"Why?" My words were choked with sobs. I didn't want to believe Xiao Manjun's words, but the truth was right in front of me, so I couldn't help but believe it.

"No reason?" Xiao Jin Dong said in a light tone, but I was angry. I raised my head and glared at him, "I'm asking you, why did you save me? I'm just your nanny, Xiao Jin Dong, do you need to save me with your life? Do you know that if you die, I won't be able to pay you back? "

Xiao Jin Dong maintained his composure as he looked at me. Suddenly, his lips curled up into a faint smile, and with a hint of ridicule, he said, "Song Yi, did I ask you to compensate me?"

"You!" I was furious. I didn't understand why a person like him would be so carefree towards his own life. He had spent so many years in hibernation, trying so hard to get what he wanted.

"We won't die!" Xiao Jin Dong seemed to know what I was thinking. His tone was filled with certainty. I was stunned, my head buzzing in pain as if it had been hit by a big stone.
