Surprise! The downtrodden prince turned out to be a sinister villain

Chapter 24 024: Redeemed

"I thought you weren't coming! Why are you here again?" The little beggar looked at her curiously with wide eyes.

Ye Li... If I knew I would come here, would I still be able to run?
"I miss you, come in and see you."

The little beggar curled his lips when he heard her words, turned around and walked into the corner, with his back turned to her, apparently not believing what she said.

Seeing him like this, Ye Li didn't take it to heart, found a clean place to sit and began to think about life.

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't have any clue, but I was very hungry. I ran away in the morning and didn't even have time to eat.

Fortunately, her basket was not taken away, she rummaged through it and found two Qing Zhis, and ate them, and continued to think while eating.

Just when she was in silence, she felt that someone was hitting her with a small stone again. When she looked up, she saw the little beggar lying on the wooden board again, looking at herself pitifully.

"Princess Xiao, what do you eat?"

Ye Li chewed the Qing Zhi in his mouth, raised his hand and asked him, "You mean this?"

The little beggar swallowed greedily, "Yes."

Seeing him like this, Ye Li's eyes flashed brightly, and he asked calculatingly, "You want to eat too?"

The little beggar nodded hurriedly.

"It's okay to share one with you, but you have to answer my question."

The little beggar kept staring at Qing Zhi in her hand, and replied without thinking: "What's the problem?"

"You said I used to come here often?"

Little beggar: "Yes."

"Then how did I get out before?"

The little beggar thought she was going to ask something, but when he heard this, he replied without thinking: "In the past, King Xiao came to protect you, and you can go out after paying the money."

"Ah! He came to protect me?" Ye Li asked in surprise.

"Otherwise! No one can protect you except him." After speaking, he stared at Qingzhi in Ye Li's hand without blinking.

"Hey! I've already answered you, when will you give it to me?"

Ye Li heard that Lin Xiao came to make sure that she was not well, and handed Qing Zhi over with a dejected expression, "Hey!"

The little beggar took Qingzhi and couldn't wait to take a big bite. After several mouthfuls, he noticed Ye Li's strangeness. Seeing her listlessly sitting in the corner, he kindly comforted her.

"What's the matter with you, you were not afraid of nothing before, every time Xiao Wang came to protect you late, you still ridiculed him, what's the matter now, you two fell apart?"

Ye Li: "I used to be so courageous?"

The little beggar gnawed on Qing Zhi in small mouthfuls, while casually replied: "Well, I'm quite courageous."

After hearing this, Ye Li slapped his forehead, "Ah..." Now there is really nothing to love.

She wasn't as confident as the original owner to do it with him!
"When does he usually come to protect me?" Ye Li asked cautiously.

Little beggar: "Not necessarily, sometimes sooner or later."

At this moment, Lin Xiao was repairing the city wall when he heard someone calling him, "Lin Xiao! Lin Xiao!"

Lin Xiao turned his head and saw an old acquaintance from the city defense standing not far away calling him.

Lin Xiao's eyes turned cold, and his face darkened instantly.

The companion next to him looked at him with a smile and joked: "Lin Xiao, it seems that your family has escaped again?"

Lin Xiao glanced at him coldly and strode towards the guards.

"grown ups."

The officer and soldier glanced at him disdainfully, and replied arrogantly: "Your wife wants to run away again, come and redeem her with me!"

Lin Xiao replied respectfully after listening: "Yes."

Half an hour later, there were impatient shouts from officers and soldiers in the prison.

"Ye Li, your man has come to redeem you, let's go!"

Ye Li heard someone calling her to give her a pause, then got up numbly, put on her back basket and walked out of the prison quickly.

When he left, he didn't forget to throw the Qing Zhi in his hand to the little beggar.

"Stop Sora, eat this."

The green gardenia in the little beggar's hand has been eaten up by him, only one peach pit is still left.

The little beggar took Qingzhi thrown by Ye Li, his face was full of emotion, he ran to the cell door and shouted loudly: "Thank you!"

Ye Li followed the officers and soldiers to the gate of the prison, and heard the officers and soldiers say in a rough voice: "Let's go!"

Ye Li nodded respectfully towards him, and walked out of the prison cautiously with his back on his back. When he looked up, he saw Lin Xiao standing not far away.

At this moment, Lin Xiao was facing her with his back, and he couldn't see his expression, but the back view alone was enough to shock people.

Ye Li was not as arrogant as before because he did something wrong, he lowered his head and slowly moved over, calling softly, "Lin Xiao~"

Lin Xiao turned his head to look at her when he heard her voice, and seeing her drooping head, looking listless, the fire in his heart dissipated a lot immediately.

He glanced at her lightly, and said casually: "Let's go!" After speaking, he left first.

Ye Li was ready to face the storm at this time. After all, she had a deep understanding of Lin Xiao's venomous tongue, so she didn't expect to be greeted by gentle wind and light rain. She was stunned for a while, but she didn't realize it.

After walking a few steps, Lin Xiao realized that she hadn't followed, he paused, and said sarcastically, "What? You still want to go in?"

Hearing the familiar sarcasm, Ye Li finally came to his senses, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried after him.

Glancing quietly at Lin Xiao, seeing his calm face, he said shyly, "Thank you for today's matter."

Lin Xiao: "You're welcome."

Ye Li: ...

"Actually, I didn't want to run away. I just wanted to go out and see if I could get some money back."

Lin Xiao glanced at her pannier, but said nothing.

Ye Li: "Really!"

Lin Xiao: "Yes."

Seeing his calm expression, Ye Li asked the doubt in his heart, "Why can they all go out, but we can't?"

Lin Xiao turned to look at her, his eyes were full of seriousness, "Did you really forget?"

Ye Li dodged his gaze guiltily, "Of course, it's not like you don't know that I was beaten in the head."

Lin Xiao's eyes sank, "Exiles are not allowed to leave the city without an order."

"Ah! Isn't that going to be trapped here for the rest of my life?"

Lin Xiao: "Yes."

Thinking of this, Ye Li lost all mood. After today's incident, she can see that she and Lin Xiao are like grasshoppers on the same rope.

I went home dejectedly all the way, threw the basket to the side, and entered the house without looking back. At first, I thought about leaving here, but now it seems that I have to make another plan.

Lin Xiao stayed alone in the yard. After cleaning his hands, he thought about Ye Li's performance all the way, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

She thought that after going through this incident, she would be able to calm down.

But because Ye Li was in a bad mood, he could only eat a few green gardenia wraps without cooking.

When it was time to go to work in the afternoon, Lin Xiao was about to go out.

Ye Li opened the door energetically, "I'll go with you."

Lin Xiao looked at her suspiciously, "What? Want to run away again?"
