The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

"What did he tell you?"

"Didn't you hear that?"

Jiang Liujing and Chi walked side by side on the road, and the golden light spots scattered in the shade of the trees danced on their robes.

When Jiang Liujing heard Chi's question, he glanced at him speechlessly. Still pretending in front of him? With his magical hearing ability, how could he not hear Gu Lian's words at such a close distance?

"I'm just curious about your opinion of what he said." The red-haired young man said lightly.

Unlike Jiang Liujing, who had undergone a drastic change in his appearance and temperament, Chi's face was only more mature and profound compared to seven years ago.

The biggest change in his appearance is his size.

If someone had thought of him as a taller young man seven years ago, they would never have had the same thought seven years later.

With his perfect silhouette, solid shoulders, and massive chest, he embodied strength. It was as if he had become a heavy hammer between heaven and earth. Even simply standing there, he exuded a powerful aura that threatened to shatter the heavens and earth at any moment.

"Gu Lian is not the type who likes to lie to me. If he said that, he must have got some clue." Jiang Liujing's eyes were blown by a gust of wind and he blinked gently.

It was autumn now, and the air wasn't particularly warm. The wind brought a chill. He pulled up his collar to cover the exposed part of his fair neck.

"But since he didn't tell me who this person is, it means he's still just suspicious."

"Do you want to check?"

"No need." Jiang Liujing shook his head and said firmly, "If this person could cause great harm to me, Gu Lian would definitely tell me. Since he didn't say anything, there's no need to delve into it too much."

If you delve into the matter too deeply, you may lose the trust of other subordinates, which will be counterproductive.

Moreover, Jiang Liujing felt that Gu Lian's personality would definitely continue to pay attention, so he could completely use Gu Lian to get the final result for free.

"You trust him very much." There was no emotion in Chi's voice.

"My interests are aligned with his, at least for now. He has no reason to harm me." Jiang Liujing said as he walked. "Just because his father is the richest man doesn't mean he will be in the future. He needs allies who can stand on the same front with him in the future."

Jiang Liujing felt that with Gu Lian's personality, he must have invested in more than just him. Businessmen are cunning and have many burrows. No matter how much sweet words they say to you on the surface that they like you, they will still constantly compare and screen better options behind your back.

But during the time they were in the same camp, his words still had some credibility.

"The timeframe Gu Lian gave is strange. It's after I became an adult... Does that mean someone is going to tamper with something during the New Year? But then again, there's also the Dharma God Ceremony to be held during that time, so it seems reasonable to think so."

Jiang Liujing kept mumbling to himself, thinking so intently that he almost bumped into a tree. Chi pulled him back and frowned, saying, "Watch the road."

"Ah." Jiang Liujing came back to his senses and saw the brown tree trunk less than five centimeters away from the tip of his nose. It was really a close call.

He quickly smiled ingratiatingly at Chi, and looking at the young man's still gloomy expression, he thought with some distress that Chi was becoming more and more unpredictable.

When he was a child, he could still sense some of Chi's emotional changes from the contract. Now, the contract only serves to let Jiang Liujing know that Chi is still alive.

As for whether Chi was happy or angry today, calm or depressed, what he was thinking about, and what secrets he was secretly hiding, Jiang Liujing knew nothing.

"By the way, Chi, Gu Lian said there will be an auction in three days..."

"I go with you."

"I thought so too." Jiang Liujing blinked at Chi. He was actually quite afraid of being alone, and liked to have someone familiar follow him when he went out.

Chi's expression eased a little, and within a second he heard Jiang Liujing say, "I plan to let Ajin go too."

red:"……"

"Why bring it? It will only cause trouble."

At first, when Ah Jin was brought back by Jiang Liujing, all the classmates thought he was just a wild man. But within half a day, Ah Jin could no longer bear the restraint of human skin and transformed back into his majestic tiger form in front of everyone.

Then he swept away all the people standing within ten meters of Jiang Liujing with his tail, occupied the open space himself, and lay down lazily.

Chi still felt unhappy when he thought about it now. They were all mythical beasts, and he was the first one. Why could Ah Jin openly announce his contractual relationship with Jiang Liujing to the world, while he had to hide his true identity?

Jiang Liujing was unaware of his little emotion. After all, even if he was unhappy, there would not be any obvious change on Chi's icy face.

He casually explained, "Ajin has been very quiet lately. I think he's been bored at school, so I'm taking this opportunity to take him out for a walk."

After seeing Ajin, Jiang Liujing actually wanted to let it continue playing in the outside world. After all, its size could not be compared with Big Black Iser and others. Letting a large beast stay in such a small place like the school would restrict its freedom too much.

But Ajin firmly stated that he had finally found Jiang Liujing and would never leave him.

Human life is too short compared to that of fantasy beasts, and it may be interrupted at any time due to various accidents. Ajin deeply feels that he should cherish every moment of time together.

Chi stopped talking.

He looked at Jiang Liujing, gazing at him deeply and slowly.

The young man's slender and graceful figure was so beautiful, like the gentle breeze and bright moon melting into the light. No, it should be said that he himself was the light in the eyes of others.

Thanks to Gu Lian's help in recent years, Jiang Liujing quickly became famous on the mainland.

He doesn't even need any other titles. Just the gimmick of "surpassing Hagadi, the real number one genius in the continent" has won him countless fanatical admirers.

He developed his own power, and his friends, helpers, and contracted beasts grew in number.

More and more people come into his sight and receive his attention.

Jiang Liujing never hesitates to give back to those people and phantom beasts who are kind to him.

Chi Xin thought, Miaomiao is so gentle.

He never displays his gentleness on the surface, and even pretends to be difficult to approach, but there are still so many people who continue to approach him.

Chi has always been a silent bystander.

Watch him grow older and shine more and more.

Look at him surrounded by people, shining brightly.

It was as if spring had melted the ice, and the jewel frozen in the heart of the ice gradually began to take shape, allowing the whole world to suddenly realize that an incomparably dazzling being was being born.

Chi knew that he was still the unique person in Miaomiao's heart and no one could replace him.

He even reached out his hand to push him higher.

But Chi still felt lonely.

This is an emotion that the powerful, arrogant and self-contained royal family of fantasy beasts should not have, and belongs to humans.

It is a mistake, it is absurd, it is the original sin of weakness.

He had the brute force to split mountains and break seas, but he was struggling like a dying beast in a trap that had not changed for thousands of years.

The soul gives birth to lust, just as a raging fire burns the earth, which never stops.

But he couldn't say a single word to Jiang Liujing.

Chi thought calmly that the annoying human named Gu Lian did have keen insight.

Jiang Liujing only treated him as a brother.

But the way he looked at Jiang Liujing was more than just brotherly love.
