"What's so weird about that? You just can't let him go. You're just deceiving yourself!"

Bai Jingyue pointed out the crux of Chu Zhixin's problem incisively.

Bai Jingxing did not continue the topic, but looked at Chu Zhixin with some heartache, "You came to see me, you have been wronged, you should take good care of yourself these days. If Bian Qiu is really determined to cancel the wedding with Si Hai, I am afraid I will have a tough battle to fight here."

He knew Bian Jiang too well. That man came from a grassroots background, but he was able to reach his current position by his own efforts. In addition to wisdom and luck, the most important thing was one word: ruthlessness.

If Bian Jiang really felt that Bian Qiu had let him go, he would definitely take his life without hesitation and leave no trouble for himself.

It doesn’t matter whether he lives or dies, but if Chu Zhixin and Bai Jingyue are implicated, he will not admit defeat so easily.

"Is it really so terrible?"

After all, Bai Jingyue is still a naive girl who was born into a wealthy family. Apart from the bitterness of love, she has never experienced any hardships in life. She cannot imagine how bad human hearts can be, and even thinks that people in Bianjiang are nice.

"You said that Bian Qiu's father is so terrible, but I think he's okay. Look, he didn't drive us away. He even arranged such a good room and a doctor to treat Xinxin's leg. He was very sincere in providing food, clothing and other expenses."

Why do we say it is sincere? Because in just less than a day, the servants brought them new clothes, toiletries, special foods, and arranged a small welcome ceremony for them. Even though Bian Jiang himself did not show up, the meaning conveyed was friendly.

So, Bai Jingyue felt that things should not be as terrible as Bai Jingxing said?

"Humph, he does a good job of pretending. You will know later."

Bai Jingxing snorted coldly, thinking about how he had mistakenly come here that year. Bian Jiang had been a good guy at first and even wanted to adopt him as his adopted son.

He once naively thought that Bian Jiang really admired him and wanted to become his best friend, but once his interests were touched, he would change his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book and torture you to death!

After that day, everything was really peaceful.

Chu Zhixin and Bai Jingyue lived in the village with good food and drink. Occasionally, Bian Qiu and Bai Jingxing would come to accompany them, but no one caused them any trouble.

After professional treatment, Chu Zhixin's feet have almost healed and are in the scabbing stage. She has no problem getting out of bed and walking normally.

"When your foot is healed, we'll leave here."

While Bai Jingyue was applying scar-removing ointment to Chu Zhixin, he was planning excitedly, "Before we leave, why don't we take a trip? Buddhism is popular here, and there are many ancient stone Buddha statues that are very spectacular. The local customs and practices here are also quite interesting."

“I hope I’ll have this opportunity!”

Chu Zhixin replied calmly, but he was not in a good mood, and a feeling of uneasiness lingered in his mind.

She didn't feel that everything was going smoothly, but rather had a feeling of the calm before the storm.

"There must be a chance. It's just a matter of a few days."

Bai Jingyue smiled and rubbed the ointment for Chu Zhixin, then helped the woman get up and said, "The weather is nice today, let's go out for a walk. I've been in this village for so long, and to be honest, I haven't even left the gate. I want to take a look around."

"Okay, I'll go for a walk with you."

Chu Zhixin also knew that Bai Jingyue's care for her had been too monotonous and boring recently, and she actually felt quite guilty about it.

In addition, she also wanted to familiarize herself with the environment around the village. If things really came to a head-on collision, she could prepare in advance and have a way to deal with it when the time came.

When the two walked out of the room, they found that the village was really big. It was basically a stilt house style. It looked simple and primitive, like an isolated and unique tribe.

Chu Zhixin noticed that every one or two hundred meters in the village, there were professional bodyguards guarding. Rather than bodyguards, they were more like well-equipped soldiers, all carrying rifles and knives, dedicated to serving the local tyrant Bian Jiang.

Therefore, the rumors about the Golden Triangle outside are all true. The higher-ups have no control over anything, and the ones who really have the final say are separatist forces like Bian Jiang.

Under the current circumstances, it would be no different for Bian Jiang to kill the three of them than to kill an ant.

No wonder he has changed so much when he came to see Bai Jingxing this time. Any normal person living in such a high-pressure place will become abnormal. Only by packaging oneself with cold-bloodedness, numbness and ruthlessness can one go further.

"Xinxin, look, there are so many banana trees over there, and the bananas on them seem to be ripe. This is the first time I've seen banana trees full of bananas!"

Bai Jingyue had a very strong insensitivity and did not feel at all how high-pressure and dangerous the environment she was in was. She also did not notice the bodyguards with guns everywhere. Instead, she saw the banana groves not far away and the bananas on them that were about to mature.

"It's quite a lot."

Chu Zhixin agreed faintly, his eyes like a cheetah, observing everywhere, hoping to remember the terrain structure of the village roughly.

This is a village that seems to be loose and free, but there is order in the chaos. Ordinary villagers and mercenaries armed with live ammunition are mixed together. Children running around on the ground are wearing open-crotch pants, and the toys in their hands are not cars or dolls, but broken grenades, mines, etc.

Looking at it from another angle, this means that everyone in the village is a soldier, even if they are only a few years old or in their teens.

This is really a bit scary, because once they come into conflict with Bian Jiang, anyone can become their enemy.

"Come on, let's go pick some bananas to eat. I've never picked bananas myself before!"

Bai Jingyue was like a naive person, with only banana leaves in his eyes. He pulled Chu Zhixin and prepared to go to the banana forest ahead to pick banana leaves.

It wasn't that she really wanted to eat bananas, she just felt that life was too boring and wanted to have some fun.

When we arrived at the banana grove, we found a pregnant woman, pulling a child of four or five years old, who were also looking up and trying to pick bananas.

There were also four or five children jumping around under the banana tree, speaking words that Chu Zhixin and Bai Jingyue could not understand.

As soon as they saw Chu Zhixin and Bai Jingyue, they all giggled.

"Children, you also want to pick bananas, right? Let me help you!"

Bai Jingyue felt that although these children were dressed in rags and didn't even have shoes, their smiles were still quite innocent. She thought that since they were smiling at her and Chu Zhixin, they must like them very much and want to welcome them, so she greeted them very friendly.

"Come on!"

One of the children, with big eyes, waved at Bai Jingyue enthusiastically, as if he wanted to lead her to an interesting place.
