How could he be the devil

Chapter 22
The more he said that, the more Xiao Bailing felt that there must be something wrong with his superiors.

The two pushed and shoved for a while, but neither of them convinced the other.

Until Xiao Bailing was so sleepy that he could hardly keep his eyes open, and yawned, Xiao Dong hurriedly helped him to the couch to lie down.

As soon as Xiao Bailing's back touched the couch, she immediately jumped up, "Excuse me!"

But there was nothing on the couch, instead it was soft and warm because Xiao Dong had been lying on it before.

Xiao Dong was stunned because of his forgiveness.

Xiao Bailing smiled in embarrassment, wrapped the quilt tightly around herself, and said, "I was just... accident, accident, since brother Xiao Dong is so polite, I just accepted it."

After all, he smiled and lay down.

Xiao Dong secretly scolded this little rascal for something wrong, and even smiled and said a few words 'no problem'.

Xiao Chengying wandered around Jiangbei City all night, trying to see if she would find anything, but Jiangbei City was too big for her to take care of it all by herself.

A sleepless night and nothing.

After dawn, she went to Ah Jin's house.

After knocking on the door a few times, a young boy's voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

Xiao Chengying cleared her throat, "It's me, Ah Jin."

Ah Jin didn't recognize whose voice it was, but when he heard the other party calling his name, he immediately came to open the door.

As soon as the door was opened, a strong smell of corpses gushed out.

Although it was winter, this living corpse had been dead for too long, and the corruption of the corpse was getting worse.

Seeing that it was Xiao Chengying who came, Ah Jin immediately invited Xiao Chengying in.

Xiao Chengying didn't move, A Jin suddenly understood what was happening, walked out with his head down, closed the door, and said, "I'm sorry, big sister, my house...is it too stinky? Are you looking for my grandma? "

Xiao Chengying shook her head and said: "Ajin, I'm looking for you, I... have a few words to tell you, you can go out with me, okay?"

A Jin glanced anxiously at the door behind him, as if he was a little worried about Grandma.

Xiao Chengying said: "Don't worry, I will use magic to make your grandma sleep longer."

Only then did Ah Jin nodded and said, "Well, big sister, thank you."

Xiao Chengying took Ah Jin's little hand and held both hands tightly. Her heart trembled slightly, as if what she was holding tightly at this moment was not Ah Jin's hand, but... the young Xiao Chengying.

Noticing that her palms were trembling slightly, Ah Jin raised his head and asked in a low voice: "Sister, are you cold? Ah Jin's hand is very warm, if you hold it tightly, it won't be cold anymore."

Xiao Chengying turned her head to look at him, that small figure smiled slightly, she saw her former self through Ah Jin.

Her vision blurred a little, and she answered with a trembling voice, "Okay, hold it tight, then... it won't be cold."

A Jin untied the dirty scarf around his neck with one hand, "Sister, you put this on, it's very warm, it's just... it's a little dirty, don't mind."

Xiao Chengying squatted down, and Ah Jin smiled and wrapped the scarf around her neck.

"Is it much warmer?" Ah Jin asked.

Xiao Chengying nodded, "Yes, it's warm, Ah..." Ah Ying!
Two people, one big and one small, entered an inn. The inn had just opened, and the cook hadn't gotten up yet.

Xiao Chengying said: "It's okay, open a private room, and when the cook gets up, I will cook all the best things in your shop."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Er immediately invited two distinguished guests upstairs.

Xiao Chengying and Ah Jin sat facing each other, Ah Jin was not used to such a place, and sat on the soft cushion, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.

"What's the matter, is the cushion uncomfortable?" Xiao Chengying asked.

A Jin shook his head, "No, it's just... I'm afraid I'll stain the mats, and my clothes... are a bit dirty."

Xiao Chengying also noticed that Ah Jin's clothes were all dirty, and they were all made of coarse cloth, tattered. It looked like adults' clothes were cut out.

The cuffs and trouser legs are extra wide, and the cold wind can easily blow in.

Xiao Chengying called Xiao Er, "Add two more braziers."

"Hey, guest officer, you'll be later." Xiao Er shook the towel and immediately went downstairs to bring the brazier up.

Xiao Chengying said: "After eating, I'll take you to buy two suitable clothes, and then take a good bath, and you'll be clean."

A Jin lowered his head and whispered: "No need, sister, I... my house is dirty, no matter how clean I wash it, no matter how well I wear it, it's useless. Besides, my clothes are already in good condition. Grandma made it for me, and I like it very much."

Xiao Chengying was silent for a moment, and said, "Ah Jin, if... your grandma is gone, what are you going to do...?"

The child shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't dare to think, if grandma isn't here, I probably...will starve to death. There are not a few children like me who starve to death in Jiangbei City."

Yes, there is no snow in Jiangbei, even a rich family like Jiang Yi is worried, let alone a poor child like Ah Jin?

If you lose your loved ones and encounter a famine, you will definitely end up dead.

Xiao Chengying patted Ah Jin on the head and said: "Don't think about the worst, there is still room for loopbacks in this matter, maybe... there is a way to bring your grandma back to life."

Ah Jin's eyes lit up, shining with a crystal light, "Really? Grandma... Will she get better?"

Xiao Chengying nodded, "Well, it will be fine."

The little furry head rubbed against Xiao Chengying's palm, "Big sister, thank you, thank you so much, when I grow up, I will definitely repay my big sister's kindness, and I will never forget it."

Xiao Chengying laughed, "Okay, in order to get this kind of gratitude from you, I must... protect you well when you grow up."

One big and one small happily ate a meal.

After dinner, Xiao Chengying took Ah Jin to buy thick clothes as promised, but Ah Jin refused to ask for it, and finally Xiao Chengying bought some thick bedding for him and grandma, and he accepted it gratefully. Down.

Xiao Chengying helped Ah Jin carry the quilt back. Before parting, Xiao Chengying gave Ah Jin the purse she carried with her, "The money in it is enough for you to grow up, Ah Jin, promise me, even if only you are left You have to be brave enough to live alone, okay?"

Ah Jin nodded, "I will."

Xiao Chengying said again: "If, no matter what troubles you encounter in the future, you can go to Lingyun Mountain to find me, I will definitely... definitely help you. Remember my name, my name is...Xiao Chengying. "

"Thank you, sister Cheng Ying, I will never forget it in my life."

Xiao Chengying turned around and left, feeling much calmer.

Back at Jiangfu, I saw Xiao Bailing sitting by the pond, splashing in the water.

Xiao Chengying walked behind him, "Why are you here again?"

Xiao Bailing was startled and almost slipped and fell into the pond.
