I have a date with the beast

The Lin family was very interested in the young man who came to help.

The couple returned from their hometown on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and spent another whole day tidying up the house, before setting out on the second day.

At around nine o'clock that morning, Jiang Ze came over wearing the dark blue down jacket he wore the last time he saw him years ago, followed by a tall and straight young man.

The young man seemed to be in his early twenties. Jiang Ze said he was a distant relative and came to help him.Aunt Lin didn't think much about it, she just looked at the young man curiously a few times, thinking to herself that young people nowadays don't pay much attention to their bodies, and they wear so little in severe cold weather, they will definitely suffer from the root of the disease when they get old.

Mrs. Lin guessed that the young man might be too poor to wear a padded jacket, so she said to him insinuatingly: "There are some spare down jackets at home, and your elder brother can't wear them anymore. Why don't I give them to you so that I can waste them?" gone."

But the young man accepted her kindness and declined politely: "No, thank you, I'm not cold."

The young man has a weird personality, too taciturn, and doesn't like being touched by others. He either helps Jiang Ze make small balls in a strange way, or stands by and watches Jiang Ze make them, and most of the time he just sits in a corner in a daze. From time to time, he moved his gaze to the busy back of the person in front.

It was also by chance that Mrs. Lin went to get flour in the back room, and just happened to meet the young man's eyes. At that time, she was surprised to find that the young man was extremely handsome, and she didn't notice it at all at first.

She noticed something strange.It stands to reason that she should have noticed the young man at first glance, how could it take so long to react.

Could it be that he is old and dim-sighted?She immediately lamented that time is not forgiving, so she didn't investigate further.

It is worth mentioning that the young boy with a watery appearance is elusive, always appearing suddenly by the stall, as if confirming something, and then disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Ze explained to the Lin family that the child was brought up by his grandfather in the countryside since he was a child. He was so playful that the old man couldn't control him.

Hearing what Jiang Ze said, Mrs. Lin couldn't help smiling knowingly when she thought of her son who was only mischievous all day long.

Children, it's all like this.

Mrs. Lin brought steaming soup to the young man sitting on the pony, and said with a smile, "Come on, Xiaofeng, drink some soup to warm your body."

Jiang Ze paused when he brushed the iron plate, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Xiaofeng.The latter exchanged a glance with Jiang Ze, then looked away, took the bowl from Aunt Lin's hand, nodded and said thank you.

This... This is completely inferior.

An ancient mythical beast that was forgotten by the god of time and lived for thousands of years condescends behind a crowded stall in a noisy night market, and is called Xiaofeng by a woman who is only in her early 40s. No matter how I think about it, I find it a bit funny.

But the person concerned lowered his head calmly and took a few sips of ginger soup.

The weather in the first month is still very cold, but fortunately, the rented house is well-equipped. Although the air conditioner is old, it still works, but it is a bit noisy and consumes a lot of electricity.

After a busy day, Jiang Ze completely relaxed after taking a shower, and lazily leaned against the bedside to read the newly downloaded e-book.

Xiao Feng brought a glass of boiled water and handed it to Jiang Ze, who took it and drank it down.

He glanced furtively at Xiao Feng, but saw that the man's face was as indifferent as before, but there was a little tenderness in the usually silent eyes that was not obvious but enough to make people unable to extricate themselves.

"What are you looking at?" Xiaofeng told Jiang Ze to move his body on the bed, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

The person who was caught immediately retorted: "No."

After a while, Jiang Ze said in a low voice with his head sullen, "...don't be too nice to me."

The two had been together for half a month, and he could see all of Xiaofeng's thoughtfulness.That man let go of his arrogance of being an ancient beast and looking down on the common people in the world, and condescended to live in this simple rental house, just worrying about the food, clothing and happiness of ordinary people.

Jiang Ze has never enjoyed this kind of treatment that is regarded as a treasure, caring and loving since he was a child. For him, this is really a luxury that cannot be asked for.

But the mocking wind was given to him at the same time, which made Jiang Ze worry about gains and losses while indulging in it.

He is one of the nine sons of the dragon. For thousands of years, he has broken through the world of mortals, penetrated everything in the world, and seen all the prosperity and decline.

And he, Jiang Ze, is just an unknown pawn among all living beings, an ordinary person, how can He De be honored by his love?Could it be, just to continue the marriage of the previous life?

Yes, Jiang Ze knew, since the day Jiang Taotao told him that his name was Jiang Rufeng.

The seemingly unreasonable rescue and silent companionship, as well as those inexplicable heart palpitations, once they are connected with the fetters of the previous life, everything becomes a matter of course.

He and Xiaofeng were lovers in the previous life, and he was also a steadfast lover who stood across mountains and endless rivers to dry up the oath to the king.

Jiang Ze was brooding about the fact that he had no memory of his previous life, but the mocking wind never mentioned it, so he couldn't open his mouth to find the memory.

A warm hand covered his forehead, and a deep voice rang in his ears: "Don't think too much."

Jiang Ze didn't answer, put down the phone without saying a word, covered the quilt and lay face down, and said softly, "Sleep."

When Xiaofeng lay down, Jiang Ze's body was stiff for a moment, but he quickly recovered.He closed his eyes, his breath was filled with the cold fragrance from the young man behind him, his chaotic thoughts calmed down, and he soon fell asleep.

At the same time, Xiaofeng opened his deep eyes, sat up, and carefully traced Jiang Ze's sleeping face.

Jiang Ze is not much different from before, his closed eyes are very moving when they open, even though he has seen all kinds of things in the world in this life, his eyes are still as clear as before, not contaminated by worldly filth.

Her skin was not as tender as it was at the same age as in that life, but it didn't hurt much, and the whole person also lost a little bit of weight.That's right, Jiang Ze in this life is not a young master who is surrounded by stars, but a homeless person who travels all over the world by himself.

The mocking wind closed his eyes, and there were unspeakable complex emotions in his deep eyes.That feeling is too heavy, but it only adds to the sadness.

He stretched out his hand and stroked Jiang Ze's head gently, feeling the smoothness and coolness of his soft hair passing through his fingertips.

A sigh dissipated into the air.

Maybe it was an illusion, but Jiang Ze did find that since Xiaofeng came to help him, the business of the stall started to be surprisingly good.

Even Mrs. Lin said: "Xiao Jiang, it's a good thing that Xiao Feng came to help you, otherwise you would be too busy."

Jiang Taotao came over with a serving of fried yogurt, as if he was under the leadership to inspect the grassroots.Jiang Ze glanced at him and said casually, "Eat this in cold weather, you won't be afraid of stomach pain."

Jiang Taotao froze for a moment when he heard the words, and was about to refute that I respected him as an ancient divine beast, and his body couldn't be compared with that of a vulgar mortal. Could it be that he was afraid of fried yogurt?

It's just that he swallowed the words as soon as he reached his lips, and an unknown emotion flashed in his eyes, which were doubts and confusion.

Yes, he is revered as an ancient divine beast, and fate gave him eternal life and the ability to destroy the world, which are beyond the reach of ordinary people, but after all, there is only this.Yin and Yang have always been balanced in this world, where there is a cause, there will be an effect, where there is good, there will be evil, and if there is good, there will be harm. When one is endowed with a sublime ability, it must be paid for by something else.

And the price is to live forever in the world, watching the sun rise and the moon sink, flowers wither and leaves fall, several spring and autumn, knowing that nothing in this world can bring a moment of joy, only endless boredom and loneliness.

Maybe that's why the other brothers would rather destroy themselves than stay long, tired of seeing the vicissitudes of the ups and downs in this world.Since it was born because of the world, it will eventually die because of the world. The vast spiritual energy is integrated into the heaven and the earth, and it is one with all things. There are no more nine sons of the dragon in the world, only the strange and fragmented ancient legends in the mouths of the people.

Jiang Taotaochu watched Jiang Ze making octopus balls intently by the side. During the period, he glanced at the mocking wind sitting behind the stall leaning against the back and looking at the sky, and a feeling of surprise suddenly rose in his heart——

sad.

It has been a long time since he experienced the emotions that only mortals can have.

This kind of emotion that only human beings have is really unpleasant.

"Let me bring a friend over." Jiang Taotao said seemingly casually.

"Who?"

"God of Wealth."

Jiang Ze couldn't control the strength of picking the meatballs for a while, and the plump octopus balls bounced out with his movements, fell to the ground and rolled away.

Jiang Taotao sneered, he took a sip of the jam on the yogurt, and suddenly found it hard to swallow, so he threw it into the trash can and said, "There's no need to be so excited, right?"

"Don't you." Jiang Ze gave him a funny look, went out of the stall, picked up the octopus ball that had rolled away and threw it away.

"Why?" Jiang Taotao was puzzled, "Why, you don't believe it?"

Jiang Ze quickly shook his head: "No, I believe it."

"Liar."

Xiaofeng took his eyes away from the boundless blue sky, and turned to look at the two people standing behind the stall who tended to bicker. After a long time, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The smile came too late, so that even the smile was a bit bitter.

He closed his eyes, enjoying the long-lost peace in his heart.
