Chapter 569 On Taotie’s Self-cultivation (51)
Song Chaoye walked up and finally stood by the fence, silently staring at his country.
"Jiang Tang, when I ascended the throne, I was thinking about a question."
"Ouch."
"I was thinking that I want to be a wise king and work for the benefit of all people. But when I stepped on the city wall, there was only one thought left in my mind. Who else is left beside me when I stand in this position?"
The man let go of his hand and let Jiang Tang jump onto the fence and squat beside him.
"Then I discovered that there was no one around me. After living for twenty-two years, in the end I had nothing but my country."
Jiang Tang: "..."
This is more like showing off your wealth.
"Jiang Tang, why didn't you choose me because of King Zhan?"
Jiang Tang felt that it was still necessary to change back to human form.
"Song Chaoye, you didn't sleep in the middle of the night, so you came here to blow the cold wind?"
"Jiang Tang, why didn't you choose me because of King Zhan?!"
The man lowered his voice and turned around. His dark eyes were cold and gloomy, mixed with a hint of vulnerability and paranoia that he didn't even know he had.
Jiang Tang was stunned.
It's this look.
Just now, he stretched out his hand and let her pass.
Although his tone was low and strong, all the vulnerability was dripping from his eyes.
Song Chaoye was so nice, giving her delicious food, taking her out to play, and treating her in a low profile. Of course Jiang Tang was more willing to get close to him.
"Answer me, don't be silent."
What else could Jiang Tang say.
If she said one more word, this man would burst into tears. How could he be so affectionate?
They had all their plans, but they had only known each other for a few months.
"Song Chaoye, are you stupid?" The man frowned slightly.
Jiang Tang stood on tiptoes and reached out to pat his head.
"Don't think nonsense. I won't be with you, and I won't be with Song Chaoling. I'm a glutton and won't stay in the same place for a long time."
Song Chaoye pursed his lips, his eyes filled with weakness.
"You used to leave the palace in the middle of the night just to find King Zhan?"
"Well, I want to protect him."
"Why?"
Jiang Tang thought for a while, but he couldn't tell him that he was my target, and I couldn't let him die in this world.
"Because...he was kind to me in his previous life, and I have to repay this kindness in this life, otherwise I won't be able to leave the mortal world."
Jiang Tang was bragging seriously, while Song Chaoye's expression became increasingly gloomy.
"He was kind to you in the past life, so I am still kind to you in this life. You have completely eaten up my personal treasury. How can you repay this kindness?"
"Song Chaoye, we agreed that I would give you bones and you would give me food, and now you want me to repay the favor? Where is my face?"
"I don't care, you will starve to death without me."
It is true that the original owner will starve to death in all likelihood, but who is Jiang Tang? No one in the world will starve to death.
There was no more chatting that day, so Jiang Tang tried to escape first.
"I'm so sleepy... It's almost dawn, let's go back and rest."
Song Chaoye could tell that if Jiang Tang was really merciless to him, he would not waste time holding on to him for so long.
He got the answer he wanted, and also knew who Jiang Tang was when he left the palace every night. The next thing he had to do was to prescribe the right medicine to deal with the broken debts in her past and present lives.
Jiang Tang turned around and was about to leave, but his arm was grabbed by Song Chaoye. The man held Jiang Tang's hand directly along his arm, held it tightly, and led Jiang Tang down the steps.
There are too many things in this world that cannot be obtained. Song Chaoye has long been used to it. He was abandoned by his mother when he was a child, and his father abandoned him as a boy. He has never been chosen by anyone in his life.
