Chapter 371: Revealing One’s Scars (Wang Jingzhi)
Nanzhi gave the money and then walked out of the pawn shop carrying the things in one hand and Yuanbao in the other.
Sun Cui was sitting at the tea stall at the door waiting for them. When he saw them coming out, he stood up immediately.
"How's it going?"
This trick was something they used to do when shopping.
I didn't expect to use it again today.
"Bought it." Nanzhi said with a smile.
"That's good." Sun Cui breathed a sigh of relief and touched Xiao Yuanbao's head lovingly.
"Yuan Bao doesn't have to worry now."
Xiao Yuanbao was both happy and a little uneasy.
Fortunately, after buying ginseng, Yueyue's disease can be improved. Although it cannot be cured, she can always live a few more years.
What makes her uneasy is that she doesn't have enough money. She has been out for six days, and her father and the others don't know if they are worried about her.
When he left, his father was still in the village, and he should be returning to the village soon. If he found that he was missing when he returned, would he be angry?
"Then let's go back first." Sun Cui was a little tired after coming out.
The sun was very hot at the moment, making her very uncomfortable.
"good."
Miss Zeng's face in Jihe Hall blushed, and she looked at Wang Jingzhi with shyness and sincerity of a girl.
"Miss Zeng..."
The girl's bright eyes and white teeth were full of friendship for her sweetheart. Just standing there made people feel itchy after looking at her.
Although Wang Jingzhi suffered a lot, he was still a normal man.
Seeing the beautiful lady's appearance, I felt my throat tightening, and a burst of warmth surged through my chest.
If it were Miss Zeng.
He should be willing.
"Wang Jingzhi, you, do you have any interest in me?"
Miss Zeng frowned slightly, her eyes full of affection.
She was raised at home since she was a child and rarely knew her husband.
Since her friend got married, she only had Hexiu to talk to her about her innermost feelings.
She always thought about it as a child.
In the future, I will marry a sweetheart, and they can read and paint together and live their own sweet life.
When she first fell in love, the man in her dream would be a high-spirited young man, who would be extremely handsome and devoted to her wholeheartedly.
But as she got older, she realized that her childhood dreams were always because she hadn't met that person yet.
Wang Jingzhi was handsome and had a faint medicinal smell about him.
After taking Chinese medicine for so long as a child, she should have been disgusted with the taste.
But when he was carrying the medicine box and concentrating on taking her pulse that day, she suddenly felt moved.
She had never thought medicine could smell so good.
"Miss Zeng." Wang Jingzhi looked at the beauty opposite him quietly, his Adam's apple rolled twice before he made up his mind.
"If so, if Miss Zeng believes me, would you be willing to go to the backyard with me? I, I have something I need to explain to you."
Wang Jingzhi tried to make his voice calmer, but even so, Miss Zeng could still tell that something was wrong.
Although Yancheng is more open, there are still many fears between men and women.
"good."
Although Miss Zeng was stunned for a while, she still nodded.
She didn't believe that Wang Jingzhi was a bad person. Although this might break the etiquette, she wanted to know what he wanted to say to her.
"It's presumptuous."
Wang Jingzhi bowed and then led the people to the backyard.
After asking two apprentices to wait in the lobby, Wang Jingzhi led Miss Zeng to his room.
He hesitated before pushing the door open.
But when he thought that if she didn't explain clearly, she might be delayed, Wang Jingzhi opened the door anyway.
Miss Zeng was a little nervous as she followed him. Looking at Wang Jingzhi's back, she took a deep breath and followed him.
Wang Jingzhi's house is very small, with only a small bed and a table, chair and bench.
However, although the place was small, Wang Jingzhi kept the house very clean.
After closing the door, the light in the room suddenly dimmed.
With the faint light coming from the window paper, Miss Zeng could only see Wang Jingzhi rummaging around on the table.
Wang Jingzhi lit the kerosene lamp on the table, and then slowly said: "Miss Zeng, you don't have to be afraid, I just want to tell you something."
There was some nervousness and helplessness in the young man's voice.
He has always felt inferior to this and even wanted to commit suicide many times.
It was the master who told him.
People will always encounter certain things, no matter how big or small, they are destined.
But if you get over it, the days to come will be better.
He finally got through it. He originally wanted to be a doctor and practice medicine to save people, but he didn't expect to meet Miss Zeng.
"good."
Miss Zeng's voice was also a little nervous. This was her first time, the first time she was alone in a room with a member of the opposite sex.
Wang Jingzhi gathered up his courage and slowly took off his coat.
Because his back was to the other party, he did not see the shock on Miss Zeng's face.
Miss Zeng's eyes widened as she watched him take off his clothes, with a look of confusion on her face.
Just talk about things, take off your clothes, what are you doing by taking off your clothes?
Before she could ask any questions, Wang Jingzhi had already taken off his shirt completely.
The candle flame flickered, but it illuminated Wang Jingzhi's back clearly.
The young man's body is not exactly strong, but he does not have the frailty of his early years.
She knew that Wang Jingzhi was born fair, but she didn't expect that his back was even fairer and more delicate.
But on his back, there were horrific scars all over his back.
"You, what is going on with you?"
Miss Zeng's eyes were filled with shock and distress.
I wanted to reach out and touch him, but it was hindered by their identities.
"I came here to escape famine. There was a drought in my hometown two years ago. I fled famine with my grandfather. At that time, I was alone in my heart and did not protect my grandfather. Later, I was caught and sent to Xincheng. …”
At this point, Wang Jingzhi paused and did not continue.
Miss Zeng's eyes were red.
Everyone knows that the Lord of Xincheng is fond of men, especially those with delicate faces.
Could it be...
Perhaps to confirm her thoughts, Wang Jingzhi smiled bitterly and continued.
"I was sent to the city lord's palace and suffered for ten days. Later, I was taken and thrown on the escape road. They wanted me to be eaten by the victims. I was very lucky and was killed by Sister Nanzhi. They saved it.”
Miss Zeng didn't speak, she just stood there blankly.
"Miss Zeng, I am an unclean person. I am not worthy of you."
The lonely look on Wang Jingzhi's face flashed away, and what was left immediately was the feeling of being relaxed.
He shouldn't be delusional or anything.
Turning around, I saw Miss Zeng shedding tears.
"Do you feel any pain?"
The girl's voice was crying, her eyes were red, and big tears rolled down, each drop hitting his heart like a heavy hammer.
There was no disgust, disgust or contempt on her face.
Some are just distressed.
Wang Jingzhi didn't move for a while, he just stared at her crying sadly.
This girl feels sorry for herself...
