Forced love, an inescapable fate

Chapter 11: Showing Loyalty

Bai Yu waited in the dark for a long time, but did not see Jiang Ci make any move.

In his sight, he saw that his young master no longer seemed to have the same strong murderous intent towards the girl squatting on the ground and crying.

Moreover, at this moment, the eyes of his young master seemed to be filled with confusion and puzzlement towards the girl who was crying so hard, and even a little pity.

Yes, no, it’s mercy.

But Bai Yu was a little confused as to why there were so many complicated emotions in the eyes of a boy who was only thirteen years old.

Just when Bai Yu was still guessing secretly, Jiang Ci spoke.

"Sister, do you really not remember what happened before? Don't you remember anything?"

Hearing his voice, Mu Qingli slowly raised her head, wiped the tears from her face, and looked up at the boy who was looking down at her with her red and swollen eyes.

"Everything I said is true. I really don't remember anything. I didn't lie to you."

Although what she said was false, at this time she could only attribute everything to amnesia. Otherwise, how could she explain it clearly? Besides, even if she told him, how could he possibly believe that this Mu Qingli was not that Mu Qingli?

Jiang Ci remained silent. After staring at the girl squatting on the ground for a while, the corners of his lips slowly rose, revealing a gentle smile.

"Of course I believe you, Sister. Please get up quickly, Sister. Thank you for standing up for me just now."

Seeing the young man who was looking at her with disgust just now, but now showing her a gentle smile, Mu Qingli was unable to react to the speed of his change.

She was a little dazed for a moment.

Until Jiang Ci extended his hand to her, with a faint smile on his face, and called her "Sister" again.

Only then did Mu Qingli react.

She sniffed, with a faint mist on her eyelashes. She met the boy's beautiful cat-like eyes and subconsciously reached out her hand.

Jiang Ci pulled the man up and smiled obediently.

"Sister, the wound on your body seems to have opened. Do you want to go back and apply some medicine?"

Mu Qingli was still in a daze, as if immersed in Jiang Ci's smile.

She stared at the handsome boy in front of her who looked a little shorter than herself without blinking, and was still confused.

Did he really believe what he said?

But why do I always feel that when he smiles at me, there is a hint of incomprehensible emotion in his smile?

Could it be that I am overthinking it?

But no matter what, he is only a thirteen-year-old boy. Maybe because of some things, he matured relatively early mentally, but no matter what, he is still a child after all.

How deep can a child's mind be? And now he can only use the excuse of amnesia to cover up the truth that his soul has traveled through time and space. Otherwise, how can he deal with people and things in the future?

If people really knew that I was not the original Mu Qingli, based on the feudal superstitions of the ancients, I was afraid...

She didn't dare to think about it anymore.

No matter what, this original body and the young man in front of her came from Jing Country together. To put it bluntly, they are people on the same boat. As long as she can make this young man believe that she has really lost her memory, then she may be able to learn from him the things she didn't know before.

Besides, the two of them are the most pitiful people here. If they don’t help each other and keep each other warm, how can they survive in this cannibalistic palace?

Now that we have come to this place, no matter what, it is best to survive.

But then he thought that if he really had to live in this dilapidated palace without seeing the sun for the rest of his life, he would be scared just thinking about it, so he had to find a way to escape. Besides, the handsome boy in front of him was only thirteen years old, and he shouldn't waste his life here like this.

Whether it's for yourself or him, you have to give it a try.

Jiang Ci saw her staring at him blankly without saying a word, and frowned slightly, the smile on his face almost unable to maintain.

Just as he was about to speak again, he heard Mu Qingli's voice slightly hoarse: "Alan said your name is Jiang Ci. I forgot what I called you before. What should I call you from now on?"

Jiang Ci was slightly stunned, then said lightly.

"Sister used to call me brother, but you and I are not brother and sister. From now on, you can call me brother like before, or you can just call me by my name. It's up to you, sister."

Mu Qingli looked at the person in front of her who always had a smile on his face, and a smile slowly appeared in her eyes.

"In that case, I'll still call you Brother. Although we're not siblings, we're the closest people to each other here. No matter what happened between us before, I won't let anyone bully you again. I swear. I know that what I did before can't be undone by just a few nice words, but please believe me, Brother. I'll prove my promise with my actions."

When Jiang Ci heard what Mu Qingli said, his smile widened: "Of course I believe you, sister."

After hearing his words, Bai Yu, who was hiding in the dark, could only worry for Mu Qingli in his heart.

No one knew the young master's fickle temperament better than himself. The strong murderous intent he showed just now made people think that he would take action to get rid of the woman in front of him whom he hated so much. Although he didn't know why he suddenly changed his mind, he was sure that it would be a big mistake to think that just a few nice words could offset the hatred in his heart for so many years.

But at the moment, it seems that he is planning to save Princess Qingli's life.

Mu Qingli naturally had no idea that there was a third person in the yard.

Seeing the young man in front of her smiling gently, her mood also improved a lot.

Who says showing loyalty is useless? Look, it's very effective.

Although the current situation is still difficult, fortunately I have companions, which at least gives me more hope of survival.

"Brother, I'll go back first. I'll come see you tomorrow."

"it is good".

When Mu Qingli walked out of the yard, his steps were obviously much more relaxed than when he came in.

Jiang Ci was still standing there, and the moment Mu Qingli turned around, the expression on his face turned cold instantly.

He watched her disappear through the door and just sneered at her back.

Bai Yu walked out from the darkness and saw that he was in a bad mood. He didn't dare to say anything and just stood quietly by the side.

"What do you think of her behavior just now? She acted like someone with amnesia?"

Jiang Ci's expression was playful, and there was a feeling in his tone that Bai Yu couldn't describe.

Bai Yu felt a tingling sensation on his scalp and didn't know how to answer his question.

After a moment of silence, he finally spoke.

"Master, whether she has real amnesia or fake it, she is still useful to us at the moment. We can leave here in another month. At least her life will be useful before we return to Jingguo."

Jiang Ci seemed to be thinking about his words.

After a moment, he said lightly.

"You're right. I've been patient for so many years. Just a few days won't make a difference. Keep an eye on her and don't let her cause any more trouble."

"My subordinate understands."
