"Are you sure you're okay?"

Although she had asked many times and had always gotten a positive answer every time, she still couldn't help but ask when things were about to come to an end. Alright, it's not that she's being hypocritical, it's that … But she really couldn't do it …

Tsk tsk, this guy's skin is so good that there's nothing to say. Normally, he was only a bit whiter than an average person. She had always thought that it was because his body wasn't healthy, so she didn't pay much attention. However, now that he was up close, he discovered that this fellow was truly defying the will of the heavens. Such delicate and delicate skin, it was simply … It was simply something that could be broken with a blow of the hand …

Right, it was something that could be broken by blowing a bullet. The feeling of it was indescribably good, just like the tender tofu that had just come out of the wok.

She really couldn't do anything about such a face. Just thinking about it made her feel uncomfortable, let alone making a move on her … Such good skin, not to mention her pus filled face in this life, even in her previous life she had never had such good skin … With such good skin, if he were to make it dirty, who knew if he would be punished by the heavens …

"It's okay, come on."

Situ Xi only smiled and lightly nodded. His black and white eyes flashed with a faint light as he nodded in encouragement.

Of course, he naturally didn't know the hundreds and thousands of twists and turns in Jiu Niang's heart. Looking at her hesitating, he thought she was worried about his body, "I know my body well. Although it's useless, this little bit of suffering is not a problem. If I can't even endure this little bit of suffering, then how can I face it?"

Right, if he couldn't even endure this little bit of suffering, then what was there to talk about?

When Wine was telling him that he had to think of a way to leave the city, it would be impossible for him to not be shocked at all. But then, he thought about it and agreed without hesitation.

He was very clear in his heart that this Jincheng City looked very safe, but he didn't dare to imagine how many dangers were lurking in the shadows. If he had wanted to save Situ Jin, then … After hearing what Jiu Niang had to say, he had a new understanding in his heart.

Yes, he was a man, a living man.

He had to be responsible for himself, so he couldn't place all his hopes on someone else.

Furthermore … Furthermore, over the years, Situ Jin had done enough for him. Since he didn't arrive on time, there was only one possibility, and that was that something had happened to him that was beyond his expectations. In this situation, the only thing he could do was protect himself and not let himself be a burden.

Initially, he was still thinking about what he could do. However, since Jiu Niang asked to leave the city, he naturally agreed without hesitation.

Yes, out of the city!

Although this city appeared to be completely safe, it was not. Right now, people were scouting everywhere in the city, and not everyone in the city would be expelled. Although it was impossible to sort out all the people in such a large city in such a short period of time, it would definitely become clear as time passed.

Then when the time comes …

As long as the city gates are sealed, at that time …

Catch a turtle in a jar!

That's right, that was the word. He didn't know why, but he suddenly became stronger.

By that time, the entire city would have been tidied up, and it would be an easy task to capture one or two people in such a closed city.

Even though he knew that these were only his guesses, those people wouldn't dare to openly search for him no matter how capable they were. However … However, there was a saying that was correct. One should rather believe it than not …

Right now, he only had these two weak girls by his side, so he couldn't take the risk …

Exiting the city now was a dead end for many...

However, wasn't he risking his life to survive?

"Uncle, I beg of you …" We haven't eaten in days … "

"Scram, scram …"

"Auntie …"

"Go, go …"

In just a short month, there were only a few people on the streets of Jincheng. The shops on both sides of the streets were closed, and the cold wind blew through the red leaves on the ground. The entire city was in an unspeakable depression.

On the deserted street, a dirty child was squatting in a corner. When he saw someone, he would rush over and hug his thighs while pulling at his sleeves, hoping for a bit of food.

But...

He did not know how many times he had repeated this to and fro. Other than a kind-hearted middle-aged aunt secretly stuffing her with half a mixed grain steamed bun, he had gained nothing else.

"There's food, there's food."

He then hugged her tightly and ran to the corner of a street not too far away. He saw that there were two children on the corner of the street, and their faces were dirty, and their clothes were tattered. It was unknown how long it had been since they had washed them, but they could smell a pungent stench from far away.

"Big brother, I'm giving it to you, hurry up and eat it …" "Little sister, this is your …" The little girl quickly squatted down and split the remaining half of the steamed bun in her hands into two halves. She handed half of the half to one of the bigger boys, then split the other half into two halves and handed the bigger piece to the younger girl beside the boy.

"No, no, I'm not hungry. You can eat." The boy frowned and gently waved his hand. No matter what, he didn't want to catch the steamed bun. His eyes were fixated on the steamed bun as if he wanted to see a hole through it.

"Big brother, hurry up and eat. I'm not hungry. You're not in a good health, so you need to eat more. " The little girl held up the half piece of mixed grain steamed bun in her hand. Her big watery eyes were blinking with a sincere light. She couldn't refuse it at all.

"I …"

"Big brother, eat …"

Without waiting for the young man to finish talking, the little girl sitting beside him obediently raised the small steamed bun in her hand and brought it to his mouth.

Suddenly …

The youth was slightly surprised and reflexively leaned back. It was as if he had seen a monster.

"I... I don't want... "You, you eat …"

Looking at the small piece of mixed grain steamed bun in Min'er's hand, which wasn't much bigger than his thumb, Situ Xi awkwardly smiled as if he had met a great enemy. To tell the truth, even though he felt that he had already mentally prepared himself, he really had to do it … He still felt that he wasn't ready yet. It seemed that he had overestimated himself …

"Big brother's eating, it's good to eat …" However, no matter how much he refused, Min'er still raised the steamed bun with a serious expression. Her small face was full of seriousness, and she didn't show the slightest intention of giving in.

"I …"

"Big brother, don't be modest, hurry up and eat. "Your health is not good, you need to eat more, otherwise …"

Without giving Situ Xi a chance to refuse, Nona continued to speak while sobbing softly. In the blink of an eye, her eyes had turned red and tears were about to fall from her eyes. "I know big brother is afraid that little sister and I will starve, but …" "But …"

"Wuu … wuu …" Brother, eat … Big brother won't die … "Undying …"

As Nona spoke, she choked with sobs. Situ Xi was stunned. He wanted to explain, but … However, before he could even finish his words, Min Er cried even more. She cried pitifully while mumbling. Her pair of pitch black hands timidly pulled at her sleeves …

Suddenly …

"Alright, I'll eat …" "I'll eat …"

With great difficulty, he took the steamed bun from her hand and stared at it, his eyes turning red. He clenched it tightly and tried his best to suppress the urge to throw the steamed bun out …

Wuu wuu, the baby felt bitter, but he couldn't say it.

"Eat, I'll eat …"

Situ Xi gnashed his teeth, his tears almost falling.

"Sigh, how pitiful."

"Yes, yes, all of them are good kids …"

"Yeah, that's a pity …"

"It's just that in this world …"

A few pedestrians were walking on the side of the road. Their originally numb faces were filled with admiration when they saw the modesty in their eyes. However … However, in the end, he could only shake his head and look around, his face full of pity …

In this world, even if one's family wasn't full and didn't wear warm clothes, they would still feel powerless … However, there were still a few elderly aunts who probably looked at them pitifully, secretly stuffing a few grains and steamed buns to them.

However …

It was a pity that they did not know the truth of the matter. If they were to know the truth, it was unknown whether they would …

Alright, if they knew the truth, they would probably not have the chance to know. However, Situ Xi's feelings …

"This..." "This …"

Stunned and tongue-tied!

Right, Situ Xi was truly flabbergasted. He blankly stared at those people who were slowly walking away with sympathy on their faces, and felt that his brain wasn't enough.

"They..." "They are …"

This is... What had happened? Everything happened too fast, and he was starting to feel a bit incompetent.

He could only feel his head buzzing as he had no idea what was going on.

"Big brother, this is great! We have something to eat, we have something to eat …"

However, before he could finish his sentence, Min'er, who had been sitting obediently to the side, suddenly burst into an excited laughter. Her pitch black face was covered with a brilliant smile as she stared at the few pieces of black grains and steamed bun in Nona's hands.

"Yes, yes. We have something to eat. Min'er, you're so obedient."

How clever, to be able to understand without a teacher.

Min'er's reaction was extremely satisfied. She gently patted her head, her face full of praise. At the same time, she didn't forget to look at Situ Xi with a warning look.

In a voice that only they could hear, he said, "This is something you promised. Don't forget, we are beggars now!"

Yes, they were beggars now.

There were three motherless beggars who couldn't eat until they were full and dressed warmly. They were obviously overjoyed to have been fed. How could they have such bitter faces? It was as if they had been hurt by someone else.

As expected, he thought it through carefully. If not for the fact that he thought of it from the start and decided to experiment in advance and leave the city recklessly, he might have... He was afraid that he would be seen through before he could even take two steps …

Looks like this kind of pampered person really couldn't believe it at all. Even though he said it well with his mouth, he still couldn't let it go when things were about to come to an end. However, there was no one who could blame him for this, and it was normal for his reaction to be based on his identity. Although Jiu Niang wasn't sure of his true identity, she was certain of one thing: this guy was definitely not ordinary.

That's right, if she had guessed at the start that this fellow's identity was either that of a rich or noble, then after he agreed to her suggestion without the slightest hesitation, she could confirm that this fellow was definitely not an ordinary person.

Even though Situ Xi had been very calm from start to finish, and had never been in a hurry, no other changes could be seen. However, the moment she mentioned leaving the city, she saw joy and urgency in his seriousness.

Yes, urgent.

Back then, he had made an agreement with Little White to protect his safety before someone came to pick him up.

Although Lil 'White didn't say that anyone would come to pick him up, it was enough to say that someone came back to find him. Logically speaking, it would be best to just quietly wait in such a situation, but …

In this case, there was only one possibility, and that was... The person who was supposed to come pick him up had met with an accident, meaning that he couldn't come pick him up on time or in other words, he couldn't come pick him up.
