I became a stepmother and got rich with my cute baby.

Ji Huaichuan picked up Chu Jinning, who was more than a head shorter than him, and jumped onto the roof. He held her slender arm tightly, and the warm feeling dispelled Chu Jinning's fear.

She stared blankly at the boy's tense jawline, her eyes shining and her little heart pounding.

Ji Huaichuan's eyes inadvertently swept over her body, and the tips of his ears instantly turned slightly red.

What kind of little girl was this? She fell into the water and was still running around the street in a panic. If she hadn't met him, she would probably have become the victim of those thieves' knives.

Only then did Chu Jinning realize that something was wrong.

She lowered her eyes to look at her slightly damp clothes. Although they had dried a lot, they were still sticky to her body. She could vaguely see her delicate skin and the curves that were beginning to develop.

Chu Jinning's face turned red instantly. She helplessly stretched out her hands to block herself, but it was no use at all.

Just when she was getting anxious, a coat with a faint fragrance was draped over her head.

She revealed a pair of shining eyes. It turned out that her savior had taken off the thin shirt under his armor. Only then did she realize that the person who saved her was so handsome, with a pair of sharp, passionate and watery peach blossom eyes.

"Thank you." She said weakly, wrapping her small hands tightly around her body.

Ji Huaichuan coughed twice, swung his sword, stared seriously at the group of people fighting fiercely in front of him, and said, "I'll take you to find a place to hide first. It's dangerous outside now. Don't crawl around like a child, okay?"

Chu Jinning subconsciously opened his mouth to refute: "I'm not a child..."

But Ji Huaichuan didn't listen at all. He picked her up and ran into a room nearby.

Well, she is only fourteen or fifteen years old, so she is indeed still a child.

How old is the lifesaver?

He looks to be about 21 or 22 years old.

The room was extremely simple, but it was considered clean despite the messy environment. Ji Huaichuan raised his peach blossom eyes slightly, his gaze resting on the wooden table in front of him. He pointed casually with his slender fingers and said, "You stay here, I'll come to find you later."

As he spoke, his sword-like eyebrows slightly frowned, and he added: "If you mistakenly enter the battlefield again this time, I may not be able to save you."

After that he was leaving.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Chu Jinning quickly grabbed his hand, her wet eyes full of fear, and she asked anxiously: "Where are you going?"

She didn't know it was so chaotic outside, which made her a little scared.

Feeling the warmth on his hand, Ji Huaichuan subconsciously narrowed his eyes and glanced at her coldly. When he saw that her pure almond eyes were filled with timidity, his gaze paused, and the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipated.

He glanced at her slender white hands, then suddenly opened his eyes and said threateningly, "Don't touch men's hands. If you do, I'll chop your hands off next time."

Hearing this, Chu Jinning's almond eyes were startled, and he withdrew his hand suddenly, but he quickly reacted and retorted: "You won't!"

Ji Huaichuan raised his eyebrows and tapped her forehead with his hand. The end of his voice was elongated and his lazy tone seemed to be smiling.

"Little girl, I'm not a good person."

"You just saved me." Chu Jinning looked serious and sincere. His pupils were bright, and his tall and handsome figure was reflected in his pupils.

"You are a good person." She lowered her eyes and whispered softly.

Ji Huaichuan sighed, strode out the door, and said without looking back: "Okay, my soldiers are still waiting on the battlefield, you just stay here."

Looking at his leaving back, Chu Jinning was distracted for a moment.

-

Ji Huaichuan returned to the battlefield.

The smell of blood filled the air. He glanced coldly at Xue Meng who was fighting with the soldiers, then he raised his foot and rushed forward.

A strong murderous intent burst out from his body. Xue Meng was no fool. His face darkened and he raised his sword and slashed backwards. Before he turned around, he had already taken over Ji Huaichuan's move.

The sound of swords rubbing against each other was particularly harsh.

Xue Meng's force was so great that Ji Huaichuan jumped back several steps.

There was a fierce look in his eyes. He stared at Ji Huaichuan intently and said with a twitch of his mouth: "Young man, you are so brave. You dare to attack me?"

Ji Huaichuan closed his peach blossom eyes, and was surprised that Xue Meng's skills were so powerful.

There was a raging chill in his eyes. He imitated Xue Meng's behavior with a bit of disdain on his face, "Do I need to inform you before I kill you?"

A low voice emanated from his throat, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue in the cold night, ready to take someone's life at any time.

Xue Meng spat, a little angry. He had already been ruined by this guy, and now he dared to speak nonsense. "Prepare to die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a knife flashed.

Ji Huaichuan retreated quickly, defending against Xue Meng's fierce attack. As time passed, the sounds of fighting around him gradually weakened.

Only half of the soldiers survived, and the war was drawing to a close.

Ji Huaichuan's face became more and more ugly. He looked for Xue Meng's weakness with a serious face, but Xue Meng was as vigilant as a leopard and would not reveal even a little bit.

"In your next life, remember not to be so frivolous." Xue Meng raised the corners of his mouth, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Ji Huaichuan frowned, his eyes fixed on the sword he raised.

The next moment, a light flashed before my eyes.

Song Wanqing rushed up from behind, and the hidden weapons in his hand flew out like rain, accurately piercing Xue Meng's wrist.

"Ah!" Xue Meng's face suddenly changed. He glared at Song Wanqing who appeared out of nowhere, and then looked at his subordinates who had suffered countless casualties around him. He secretly thought that something was wrong.

I was only paying attention to Xiao Si and forgot to observe the situation around me.

Song Wanqing's face was cold. She glanced at Ji Huaichuan, who was at a slight disadvantage, and said with a smile, "I thought you could handle it by yourself."

Ji Huaichuan was not annoyed, but smiled cheerfully. He stood up, placed his sword casually at his feet, and said, "Isn't this intentional buying you time so that you can deal with these little bastards?"

Song Wanqing curved her eyebrows and said, "Let's make a quick decision."

Xue Meng reacted and realized that Ji Huaichuan had been giving in just to delay time.

Now he was like a trapped beast, totally powerless to recover.

We can only fight to the death!

Ji Huaichuan and Song Wanqing saw what Xue Meng was thinking. They looked at each other and then jumped to both sides at the same time, attacking Xue Meng from both sides.

Now, Ji Huaichuan no longer concealed his strength, and with the cooperation of Song Wanqing, he suppressed Xue Meng in just a few rounds. Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and he stared unwillingly at the two people in front of him who had cooperated so well.

Ji Huaichuan had a blank expression on his face. He glanced at Xue Meng coldly and slashed with the knife.

Xue Meng's head fell to the ground instantly, splattering blood all over the ground.

"The rest is left to you. I'm going to find someone." Song Wanqing was in a hurry to leave. Ji Huaichuan frowned and pulled her back.

"I'm going to look for someone too. Where are you going?" he asked tentatively.
