Romantic Soldier King In City - C155
After Tie Shan heard this, he was stunned again. “Lin Kai died?”
Xiao Long nodded his head, “My sister’s revenge has been avenged. Finally, one matter of concern has been settled.”
“Your sister, Xiao Yu, she …” She died … “Dead?” Tie Shan was even more shocked, “What exactly happened? Just how much of what are you hiding from me? ”
“It’s hard to explain with just a few words. Let’s go in and sit down.” The dragon stepped forward.
After around 20 minutes, Xiao Long explained the whole situation to Tie Shan. Hearing that, Tie Shan was surprised: “All of this is a trap you arranged just to catch Lin Kai?”
Xiao Long nodded his head, and said: “That’s right, to forge the information of death, and entrust it to Xiao Fen, and in the end, order Lin Kai to commit suicide. This can only be accomplished with the support of the Mr. Yuan’s manpower and resources, including this house, which is also the property of the Mr. Yuan. ”
“Even if you didn’t say it, I’d have guessed it. It’s just a big room, is he really giving it to you?” Tie Shan expressed his doubt.
“He won’t accept anything for nothing. I’ll return it to him soon.” The dragon said.
“That’s not necessary. Since he gave it to you, he thought highly of you. In the future, wouldn’t it be reasonable for you to try your best to work for him?” Tie Shan advised.
“I’m not going to work for him.” “I know that he has done me a favor, but I have saved him before, so let’s call it even.”
“Then what are your plans for the future?” Tie Shan asked with concern.
“I don’t know either.” Xiao Long shook his head, “I can’t answer this question. I’m very confused right now, I need to be alone.”
“It’s fine, at least you still have me. I’m a good brother for life.” Tie Shan comforted Xiao Long as he gently placed his right hand on his shoulder.
“What happened to your hand?” The little dragon noticed that Tie Shan’s hand was wrapped in bandages, and said in surprise.
“I accidentally cut it. It’s not a big deal.” Tie Shan shrugged his shoulders.
At this time, Muyu, who was standing at the side, interjected, “Master, you haven’t eaten breakfast yet, right? The table is already prepared. Do you want some? ”
“No, I’m not hungry.” “Also, stop calling me ‘Master’. Just call me ‘Xiaolong’.”
“How can that be? Mr. Yuan asked me to serve you, I am your servant, how can I not be respected? ” Muyu said.
“You don’t have to serve me.” “I am not a child, and we are equal. There is no need to be inferior.”
“Master, saying this makes it very hard for Muyu to do anything.” Muyu looked to be in a difficult position.
“You don’t have to worry about this, I will tell the Mr. Yuan and I won’t stay here for too long.” The dragon said so.
“Hey, Xiaolong, I offered you my good intentions, why aren’t you grateful?” Tie Shan pushed Xiao Long a little, and continued: “If you don’t like it, you should talk to Mr. Yuan, and ask him to betroth Muyu to me, right?”
Xiao Long gave Tie Shan a sidelong glance, and said: “I’m a good girl, don’t mislead me.”
Tie Shan felt slightly regretful and sighed: “I’m just joking, how could a poor brat like me be worthy of her?”
“Alright, stop daydreaming. I feel very tired and need some rest.” Xiao Long leaned back on the sofa, looking tired.
“I know, you should rest for now. I’ll come see you at night.” Tie Shan nodded and said.
Xiao Long agreed. Tie Shan then bid his farewell and wrote down the address.
This elegant residence was located in the suburbs, and was quite a distance away from the city center. Tie Shan, on the other hand, was familiar with this area, and he would often come over to play with his friends when he was young. To Tie Shan, this mansion seemed to have come out from underground. He did not know when it was built, and he had no interest in going back through its history, all he needed to know was that the current owner was Li Xiaolong, his brother, and that would be enough.
When night fell, it was already around 9 PM. Tie Shan took a taxi to Xiao Long’s house, and the one who opened the door for him was Muyu.
“Yu, is Xiaolong here?” Tie Shan stuck his head in and asked.
“He went out.” Muyu said.
“Where did he go?” Tie Shan felt surprised.
Muyu shook her head hard, “He didn’t say, maybe she just went out for a walk?”
“How long has he been gone?”
“Less than half an hour.”
“Why are you taking a walk so late?” Tie Shan could not help but be puzzled, “I will look for him.”
“Well, I hope he’s happy to see you.”
“Why do you say that?” Tie Shan felt that something was amiss and hurriedly asked.
“He seems to be in a bad mood. After sleeping for the entire day, he woke up and didn’t eat. He also didn’t say anything to me.” Muyu said.
“I understand. I’ll go look for him now. See you later!” After Tie Shan finished, he turned and left in big strides.
This was a small river in the suburbs. No one knew its name, but the river was clear and bright. No matter how time passed or how the sun and moon changed, it continued to flow endlessly.
A youth was standing by the river, his head lowered as he gazed at the gurgling water. His slightly wrinkled brows carved a hint of sadness onto his handsome face.
The surroundings were very quiet, so quiet that only the sound of flowing water could be heard.
The youth’s body suddenly moved. His left foot stepped forward and his right foot followed. He began to walk step by step into the clear waters of the river, heading towards the deepest part of the river.
The river had already reached the boy’s chest and was about to reach his head. Right at this moment, someone rushed over from the back and hugged the young man tightly in the face of danger.
“What are you doing?” To bathe or to die? ” The one who came was Tie Shan, and the young man was Li Xiaolong.
“Don’t worry about me, get lost!” The dragon tried his best to break free from Tie Shan’s arms, the two of them clashed fiercely in the water, causing water to splash everywhere.
Tie Shan was furious to the extreme, but not only did he not relax, he increased the strength in his arms and forcefully pulled Xiao Long to the shore.
“Why did you come here? “Why are you stopping me?”
Seeing that Xiao Long was begging for death, Tie Shan was both angry and pained. He simply pushed Xiao Long’s head into the water and shouted, “Do you want to die? As your brother, I’ll help you! ”
The little dragon’s head was buried in the water, unable to speak, unable to breathe, crying uncontrollably. Its hands unconsciously danced in the air, struggling to get up. Tie Shan allowed Xiao Long to drink enough water, lifting him up, then pressing him down again and again.
“Are you awake!?” Tie Shan pulled Xiao Long out of the water and asked, “Do you want to drink more?”
How could Xiaolong answer? He could only cough and spit out water.
Seeing that, Tie Shan could not bear it anymore, and while Xiao Long was powerless to resist, he dragged him out of the water and onto the shore.
“Why, why are you seeking death?” Tie Shan asked angrily, lying on the grass like a dying dragon.
“I… I just wanted to see my mother. Why did you stop me? ” The little dragon weakly replied.
“You think you can see your mother if you die? Do you think your mother would want to see you like this? ” Tie Shan scolded him mercilessly.
“This is my business… “Don’t worry about it …” The little dragon slightly closed his eyes, letting out some words that sounded like he was sleep talking.
“You’re still so young, do you really have to walk this path?” Tie Shan said, “This is a road of no return! “Are you sure you don’t have any lingering feelings left in this world?”
“Shan, I don’t have any family anymore. My parents died early, and now even my sister is dead. I really don’t have any motivation to stay in this world …” Can you understand? ” Xiao Long looked at Tie Shan beside him out of the corner of his eyes and said sorrowfully.
“Don’t you still have me? Even though we don’t have blood related relatives, I have long treated you as my blood brother. Do you really have the heart to leave me alone? ” Tie Shan said.
“Shan, thank you. Actually, aren’t you my blood brother as well …” But… There are some things that even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand. The feeling of losing a family member, that kind of unforgettable feeling, that kind of pain that makes one wish they were dead … “From the moment I avenged my sister, I’ve already lost the will to live …”
“I understand, I understand!” Tie Shan emphasized his words, “Do you think I’ve never experienced the pain of losing someone’s family? I just didn’t tell you. When my brother died of illness, I couldn’t even catch a last glimpse of him. You said I wasn’t sad, that I wasn’t in pain? But I still have to live my days. I still have to grit my teeth and live on, because there are still people by my side who care for me. There are also many people who might be waiting for my help. If you want to live, you must live a complete life! ”
“Your brother?” A trace of doubt flashed across Xiaolong’s tired face. “What disease did he have?”
“What disease?” In short, it’s a very difficult disease to treat. You know that my family doesn’t have money, and as a big brother, I’m also a consumer, so I can’t help much. I feel both remorseful and sad, can you understand? ” Tie Shan said in all seriousness.
The dragon listened in silence.
“Long, listen to me. You are an outstanding person. Wouldn’t it be a pity if you just died like that?” Tie Shan struck the iron while it was hot, and then said: “You could have gone through a great mission and brought honor to your ancestors. Your mother would also feel gratified if she had knowledge in the underworld. Moreover, there’s no need to rush to your death. After a few decades, even if you don’t want to die, King Yanluo will send you an invitation.
“Alright …” “When did you learn to lecture?”
“I’m speaking from the bottom of my heart.”
“Pull me up!” The dragon slowly raised his right arm.
Tie Shan laughed comfortably, extended his hand and pulled Xiao Long up, then said to him: “Not bad, you have finally thought it through.”
“I really just wanted to take a bath. Why are you so nervous?” The dragon said so.
Tie Shan was speechless, and said: “Then do we throw you back?”
“No need, I suddenly remembered to save a bathroom at home.” said the dragon, and went out first.
Tie Shan laughed and followed along.
“Shan, you’re still as honest as ever. You don’t even have a younger brother, so don’t take me for a three year old child.” The dragon said as he walked.
“You … How do you know? ” Tie Shan was surprised.
“We’ve been classmates for many years, and the name ‘little brother’ isn’t in the family forms you fill out.” The dragon said.
“Oh, you’re so meticulous. You’ve already discovered this, I’m convinced.” Tie Shan scratched his head, “But my starting point is good, do you care if I have a brother or not?”
“I naturally know that what you said just now really woke me up.” “But it has nothing to do with your brother.”
“What did I say?” Tie Shan seemed to have forgotten all about it, “I almost forgot what I said.”
“If necessary, I will help you remember.” Xiao Long did not intend to say it now, but his pace quickened.
The two brothers chatted and laughed all the way back home. Xiao Long went forward and pressed the doorbell, and not long after, Muyu opened the door.
Seeing that there were two boys standing at the door, looking like they were drenched in water, Muyu couldn’t help but pout her lips and remain silent for a long time.
“Yu, what are you standing there for? You don’t recognize us? ” Tie Shan’s words woke Muyu up.
“You … You went swimming? ” Muyu really couldn’t imagine what had happened, so she asked weakly with curiosity.
“Don’t mention it, let us in first.” Xiao Long said.
When Muyu heard this, it was as if she had just woken up from a dream. She stood behind the door immediately and opened up a path for Xiao Long and Tie Shan.
“I’m going to take a bath first.” “Take off your wet clothes, and stay for the night.” Finally, she said this to Tie Shan.
Tie Shan happily agreed, and said: “Coincidentally, we don’t have to attend lessons tomorrow, so I’ll stay behind to accompany you! I don’t have much chance to live in such a large and comfortable house in my lifetime, so I must enjoy it. ”
“I plan to see Mr. Yuan tomorrow.” The dragon suddenly said.
“Alright!” Tie Shan cheered at first, but then his tone turned serious and asked softly: “Are you also planning to stop studying?”
Xiao Long shook his head gently, “I think I will, but I don’t need to go to school. I need to talk to Mr. Yuan first.”
“No matter what decision you make, I will always support you as usual, except …”
“Don’t say anymore …” “I hope you won’t bring this up again. Just pretend it didn’t happen.”
Tie Shan solemnly nodded his head, “I understand, I will not tell anyone else about it, you can rest assured, maybe I will forget about it tomorrow, you know that I will not be able to do anything.”
Xiao Long also replied with a nod of his head, expressing his trust towards Tie Shan. After that, he turned around and went to take a bath.
After Xiao Long left, Muyu could not help but ask: “Brother Tie Shan, did you guys really go swimming just now?”
“Of course it’s true …” Tie Shan blurted out, but suddenly he felt a surge of joy in his heart. He turned to Muyu and asked happily: What did you call me just now?
“Aren’t you called Tie Shan? “What’s wrong?” Muyu stared at Tie Shan with her bright and clear eyes.
“No, one last word.” Tie Shan quickly corrected him.
“The last word is not… Isn’t it a mountain? ” Muyu was even more confused.
“That’s not what you called me just now. Do you want to call me again?”
“Tie Shan… “Brother.”
“Oh right, why did you call me Brother Tie Shan?”
“You’re older than me, shouldn’t you call me older brother?” Muyu had a look of being able to take it for granted.
“I’m not necessarily older than you. You can just call me Tie Shan.” Tie Shan scratched his head in embarrassment. He had wanted to ask Muyu about his age, but he remembered that it was impolite to ask a girl’s age, especially a pretty girl.
“Do you think that you’ve aged your big brother?” Muyu said in displeasure.
Tie Shan immediately waved his hand, and pleaded: “Of course not! Only women are afraid of old age. As a man, what am I afraid of? “But …”
“But what?” Muyu blinked her eyes, and looked at Tie Shan, waiting for him to continue.
“If you call me that, won’t I call you Yu Mei?”
“You don’t want to?” As Muyu spoke, she lowered her head and said gently: “Actually, I have always wished to have a brother …”
“I… “I …” Tie Shan’s tongue seemed to be tied, as he stuttered to continue.
“What are you trying to say?”
“Anyway, I don’t want to be your brother.” Tie Shan said in all seriousness.
Muyu was slightly disappointed, she suddenly turned her back on Tie Shan and said: “If you don’t want to do it, then don’t want to, pretend I didn’t say anything!”
“Yu, don’t be like this …” Tie Shan held onto Muyu’s delicate hand and said gently: “We can still be friends, right?”
“Forget about you, I’m tired. I need to go back to my room to sleep.” Muyu shook off Tie Shan’s hand and walked away without even turning his head back.
Tie Shan was obviously disappointed, he secretly sighed, then helplessly shook his head and went upstairs.
