Chapter 125 The plot begins
Bai Jin saw that Chao Chao was very attached to Jing Jin. The little person stuck to Jing Jin like a little magnet.
Chaochao's face was filled with a bright smile and her eyes were sparkling. Bai Jin shook his head helplessly, muttering to himself that this little guy's dependence on Jingjin was really extreme.
After yawning, Bai Jin's slightly tired figure slowly walked towards the house, ready to have a good sleep.
After dawn, sunlight poured into the room through the window. Bai Jin was still in a half-asleep state. In a daze, he habitually reached out to touch the place where Chao Chao was sleeping.
His hands moved around, but he couldn't touch that familiar little body. A feeling of uneasiness instantly surged into Bai Jin's heart, and his sleepiness receded quickly like the tide.
A terrifying thought flashed through Bai Jin's mind: Could it be that Chao Chao was stolen? It startled him awake instantly.
He sat up suddenly, his eyes anxiously searching the room for Chaochao's figure.
Just when Bai Jin was extremely anxious, she remembered that Chaochao was at Jingjin's place. Maybe they didn't bring Chaochao over last night.
Bai Jin let out a long sigh, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.
After confirming that Chaochao was fine, Bai Jin's heart finally settled down. He lay back on the bed again. After a while, the sound of even breathing could be heard again.
Song Yi was getting a little impatient waiting outside the door. He knocked on the door hard and shouted, "Bai Jin, why are you still sleeping? Get up quickly!" The knocking sound was particularly loud in the quiet morning, almost shaking the whole house.
Bai Jin, who was in the room, frowned at the sudden knocks and shouts. He turned over and tried to go back to sleep, but Song Yi kept knocking on the door. "Lao Bai! Sister! Big brother! Why are you so sleepy? Wake up!"
Bai Jin sighed helplessly and sat up reluctantly. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, slowly put on his clothes, walked to the door, and opened it.
Song Yi saw Bai Jin finally come out, and a smug smile appeared on his face. "You're finally up. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Bai Jin rolled his eyes at Song Yi and said, "Why are you rushing me? Can't you let me sleep a little longer?"
Song Yi ignored Bai Jin's complaints and pulled him out. "Alright, stop talking nonsense and hurry up. I'll show you around outside." He pulled Bai Jin's arm and walked quickly, not giving him any chance to resist.
They passed by the place where Su Yan and Jing Jin were teasing Chao Chao. Chao Chao was immersed in the joyful interaction with Su Yan and Jing Jin, with a smile on her little face.
She didn't even glance at Bai Jin, as if she had completely forgotten Bai Jin's existence. Seeing this, Bai Jin felt a little disappointed.
As Bai Jin walked out the door, he saw the skeletons on the street seemed to have glowing eyes. A strange light seemed to instantly ignite in those empty eye sockets. They stopped what they were doing and chased after Bai Jin like hungry wolves.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Bai Jin immediately ran in the other direction without hesitation.
Song Yi stood there stunned, his eyes wide in disbelief at the scene before him. "Isn't this even more terrifying than those star-chasers?" Song Yi muttered to himself, his voice filled with shock.
After a while, Song Yi finally reacted and hurriedly chased after them. Song Yi struggled to get through the group of skeletons, but no matter how hard he squeezed, he couldn't get past the skeletons.
Just as he was struggling to move forward, he suddenly heard a voice: "We've been waiting for years! Finally, someone is here! Go tell the city lord!"
Song Yi's heart moved, he knew this might be the clue of the new plot. Song Yi finally encountered a new plot, and he began to hesitate.
He stopped to think for a moment, and finally decided to go in the direction of the skeleton.
Bai Jin was being chased. The dozen or so skeletons at the beginning quickly became hundreds. The dense swarm of skeletons was like a surging tide. He ran desperately, searching for a place to hide.
In a panic, Bai Jin saw a dog hole. He turned in without hesitation, his body pressed tightly against the ground, and he struggled to move.
After entering the dog hole, Bai Jin carefully observed the surroundings to see if there were any skeletons chasing him.
After making sure it was safe, he immediately took out his black robe and quickly covered his face and skin.
Bai Jin's tension eased a little, and he began to walk around the yard curiously.
As he was walking, Bai Jin saw a skeleton sitting near a fish pond, feeding the fish. Bai Jin was instantly curious about whether the fish were skeletons, so he sneaked closer to the pond and looked inside. As expected, the fish in the pond were also skeletons.
But at this moment, the female skeleton noticed something was happening. She stood up suddenly and looked in Bai Jin's direction. "Who! Who's there?" The female skeleton's voice was full of vigilance.
Bai Jin's heart tightened, and he wondered if he had been discovered. He was about to leave hesitantly when he found a skeleton walking out in front of him. "Huh? Why did a skeleton suddenly appear? I remember there was no place to hide in front of me." Bai Jin muttered softly, his heart full of doubts.
The skeleton, known as "Xiao Langjun," walked up to the woman and suddenly hugged her tightly. "I've always loved you. Why don't you accept me?" Xiao Langjun's voice was filled with affection and pain.
The woman struggled to break free, but found she couldn't. "Xiao Cheng, let me go! You're my sister's fiancé, don't you know who you are?" The woman's voice was filled with anger and helplessness. She couldn't believe Xiao Cheng would do such a thing. Their identities were so special that such behavior was not allowed.
Xiao Cheng hugged the woman tightly, his eyes filled with deep affection and persistence. "I don't care about your status. I only know that I love you. From the first moment I saw you, I knew my heart belonged to you." His voice trembled slightly, as if he was suppressing the pain deep in his heart.
The woman was anxious and angry. She struggled hard, but couldn't break free from Xiao Cheng's arms. "You're crazy! You'll ruin all of us. If my sister knew, she would be so sad." Her eyes were filled with anger and helplessness, and her voice was a little higher.
Xiao Cheng seemed to have not heard the woman's words. He still held her tightly, refusing to let go. "I don't care what others think. I only care about you. Why can't you accept me?" There was a hint of pleading in his tone, and a pained expression on his face.
The woman glared at Xiao Cheng and said loudly: "Wake up! You don't love me at all, you just treat me as her substitute. You love her, not me!" The woman's voice was full of despair, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Xiao Cheng was slightly stunned, then shook his head, "No, it's not like that. I love you, not her. Don't think too much." A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his firmness.
The woman sneered, "Do you think I can't see it? Every time you look at me, it's as if you are looking at another person. You are nice to me only because I look like her." The woman's voice was full of sadness, and her heart seemed to be deeply hurt.
