The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 157 It's so nice to have you
Grandma Zhu pulled Bai Jiujiu's sleeve excitedly, and gave her a joyful expression.However, Bai Jiujiu couldn't be happy, her eyes were still heavy.He pursed his lips tightly, not knowing what to say.

Seeing this, Duanmu Jianjiang couldn't help but sighed heavily.

"The emperor accepted the marriage invitation yesterday. Now we just need to wait for the emperor to issue an order to Chai Wang's mansion, and then Jiujiu, you can happily marry from Chai Wang's mansion to my Duanmu mansion."

Duanmu Jianjiang said these words very calmly.But Bai Jiujiu's heart was turbulent because of this.

Facing Duanmu Jianjiang, she didn't know whether she should tell the truth.She looked at Granny Zhu in embarrassment.However, Granny Zhu seemed to have forgotten what she said last night, her heart and eyes were filled with smiles.

"Jiujiu, although I didn't mention this matter to you in advance, it's a bit abrupt. But, according to the old man's observation for many days, you really like our Ling'er, right?"

A pair of old but still hale and hearty eyes stared closely at Bai Jiujiu.Although Bai Jiujiu knew that the old man said so much, it was all to hear his own statement.But is it really okay to drop something now and talk it out?

Grandma Zhu couldn't even tug at her sleeves several times, so she couldn't help urging her immediately: "Jiujiu, you are talking, do you like General Duanmu?"

Bai Jiujiu looked at her, Granny Zhu clearly knew that she liked him.Why do you still have to embarrass yourself now?

Seeing the stubborn Bai Jiujiu, Granny Zhu had no choice but to resort to ruthless moves to force her!

"Speak up. If you, Bai Jiujiu, don't like General Duanmu and don't want to marry him, then the Duanmu Mansion must hurry up and ask the emperor to take it back."

Sure enough, Bai Jiujiu got anxious and shook her head again and again: "I like it! Jiujiu came here all the way to marry General Duanmu!"

After speaking, seeing the kind smiles flashing on the faces of the two old people, Fang realized what he said in a hurry, and his small face flushed with shame.

Unexpectedly, the old man Duanmu looked away from him, and said triumphantly, "Ling'er, did you hear clearly?"

As Bai Jiujiu turned her head back, the voice of the person called "Ling'er" came from behind her at the same time.

"Ah."

It's just that this voice is also soft and low.I can't hear much joy, but the shyness in it is clearly discernible.

Immediately, Duanmu saw that Jiang laughed three times, and then resumed his usual casual personality.Looking at his most precious grandson, he said: "Since you know that you have nothing to worry about, why are you frowning?"

Duanmuling immediately denied it with a veil of shame: "Grandson didn't..."

"Hmph, it's up to you if you want it! Anyway, that's all the old man can help with. For the rest, you two can figure it out yourself!"

After finishing speaking, Duanmu Jianjiang winked at Granny Zhu who was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.Then, Granny Zhu went to drink tea with him wisely.

In the huge hall, only Bai Jiujiu and Duanmu Ling met each other's eyes.

Speaking of which, the two have known each other for a while, and being alone is not something that happens once or twice.But only this time, it was so quiet that it made people feel at a loss.

Duanmuling scratched his head, feeling much more excited than going to the battlefield.Pretending to be relaxed, he stepped forward and smiled at the rarely quiet Bai Jiujiu.

"Jiujiu, your serious expression yesterday really scared me."

Bai Jiujiu lowered her head even lower: "No way. General Duanmu must have thought too much."

"Probably so. You know I was really..."

Duanmuling's bronze-colored face was flushed red, and there were a series of smirks hanging on it.Bai Jiujiu looked like a fishbone stuck in his throat, and with trembling lips, he couldn't bear to tell some truth to hurt him.

But what if you don't say anything?He is so sincere to himself, he is already a mistake, and if he deliberately conceals it, it will be a mistake on top of his mistake.

Duanmuling, who was still happy, finally noticed Bai Jiujiu's unusual expression.

"Jiujiu, do you want to tell me something, but you don't know whether to say it or not?"

Bai Jiujiu looked embarrassed and nodded heavily.

"Is it bad news?"

Bai Jiujiu, who had lowered her head for a long time, suddenly looked up at him.The reincarnation of God of War is really powerful, he can see through what he said at a glance!

Duanmu Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, as if adjusting his mood.After a long while, he asked softly: "But it's about Chai Wangfu?"

Bai Jiujiu's eyes drooped, sure enough, this guess was right.

"The relationship between you and Lord Chai has long been seen as unusual. But as long as I, Duanmu Ling, have you in my heart, and you, Bai Jiujiu, also like me. There is no need to pursue the rest. Let them go in the past. "

There was gentleness in the always stern and deep eyes.The warmth enveloped Bai Jiujiu's eyes, and in her heart, even the entanglements that had been entangled with her for a long time gradually faded away.

"But I always feel so sorry for this..."

"There is no right or wrong for what you love and what I wish, so there is no need to say sorry. As long as I am yours and you are mine in the future, it will be fine."

The open-minded mind and firm look made Bai Jiujiu look particularly warm and tender.Finally, the slightest smile bloomed on the face that had been hazy for a long time.

Bai Jiujiu threw herself into Duanmu Ling's arms.The excitement is beyond words.Only a short sentence was said.

"General, it's good to have you!"

Feeling the small body suddenly thrown, Duanmu Ling was startled unexpectedly, but then he couldn't help chuckling.

"Jiujiu, you're getting more and more awkward when you change your words."

"Ah? Do you want me to call you Duanmu?" Bai Jiujiu looked up at him puzzled.

"Silly, Duanmu is my surname, so naturally I can't call it that. However, my single name is Ling, so you can call me Ling directly."

"Ling..." Bai Jiujiu whispered softly, why did she feel so nauseous.

I don't know if it was her Bai Jiujiu who buried her head too deeply and spoke too lightly, Duanmuling didn't hear it or what, he didn't speak, but just hugged the little man in his arms tighter with a pair of big hands.

Bai Jiujiu thought it was so sweet, so sweet.A pair of bright eyes almost narrowed into a crack when they smiled.Wei Wei raised her head, but saw a familiar figure in a trance.Seems like a brother?

But why did he suddenly appear in Duanmu Mansion?Moreover, why is he so sad?
Just as Bai Jiujiu wiped her eyes with her hands to confirm, she heard a barely audible sigh coming from the front.Then, the figure disappeared out of thin air.

Feeling the small body in his arms tremble suddenly, Duanmu Ling immediately let go.He asked with great concern, "What's wrong?"
