Quick Wear: Why did the male protagonist fall in love with the vicious villain again?

Chapter 572: Snow on the Desk of the Infatuated Alliance Leader (176)

"..."

Jing Hengzhou took Bai Chao's hand and coaxed him softly, "There is no substitute, only you."

Bai Chao snorted: "Then who am I?"

“Ah Chao”.

Jing Hengzhou kissed Bai Chao's fingertips: "My A-Chao."

Bai Chao curled his fingers and his ears turned red.

He glanced at the crowd of onlookers around him.

Everyone turned their backs to avoid suspicion, except for the dull-witted Sect Leader Liu.

"..."

Bai Chao grabbed Jing Hengzhou's hand tightly and strode forward.

"Where's the carriage? I need to rest."

Only after the two figures disappeared from sight did the group relax and start chatting and laughing again.

"The alliance leader...they..."

Only the bald-headed Master Liu pointed ahead in disbelief, then looked around, only to see that everyone else's expressions remained calm and composed.

"No, aren't you all surprised?!"

Protector Mo said, "Sect Leader Liu, didn't I already tell you that the Alliance Leader and the Holy Son have an unusual relationship? I told you not to provoke the Holy Son."

Sect Leader Liu exclaimed in disbelief, "How was I supposed to know they had this kind of relationship?!"

"Didn't you see how close they were before?"

Sect Leader Liu was furious: "I..."

Having seen it, Sect Leader Liu had initially thought that Bai Chao was just being unrefined and always clinging to the Alliance Leader. Now, the strange feeling in his heart was finally explained.

Elder Xin patted Sect Leader Liu on the shoulder: "Sect Leader Liu, if you want to keep your head, you'd better watch your mouth."

"The Holy Son comes from the Western Regions and is not subject to anyone's control, including the Alliance Leader."

"Don't mistake someone else for someone else again."

When Sect Leader Liu saw the meaningful look in Elder Xin's eyes, he swallowed hard.

……

Although Bai Chao said he would release Xiao Tang, when the carriage left, someone noticed that Xiao Tang had been silently following behind them.

Most people were surprised: "Has this puppet recognized a master?"

Bai Chao leaned half his body out of the carriage and waved to Xiao Tang, who was hiding behind a tree.

Xiao Tang walked over silently.

Bai Chao tilted his head: "You want to come with me?"

Xiao Tang made two "ah ah" sounds, then nodded.

Bai Chao sat back in the carriage and said lazily, "Then take her with you."

Jing Hengzhou glanced at Xiao Tang outside the carriage window and said to his subordinates outside, "Arrange a separate carriage for her."

Subordinate: "Yes."

So Xiaotang happily enjoyed her solo luxury carriage ride.

It's so great that I don't have to walk anymore!

With the Corpse Puppet Sect matter resolved, the members of other sects parted ways after leaving the mountain, each returning to their own sect.

Bai Chao followed Jing Hengzhou back to the Lingyun Sword Sect.

When the leader of the alliance returned, many people stood at the entrance of the Lingyun Sword Sect to welcome him.

The sect leader stood at the front, smiling as he watched Jing Hengzhou alight from the carriage.

"Hengzhou, was your trip to the Western Regions successful?"

Jing Hengzhou nodded: "The Corpse Puppet Sect has been destroyed."

News of the annihilation of the Corpse Puppet Sect has not yet spread.

The sect leader was startled, then his face lit up with joy: "Really? That's wonderful!"

The others chimed in, "As expected of the alliance leader, he's quick to act."

"The Corpse Puppet Sect, which committed numerous evils, has finally been wiped out."

"Thanks to the Alliance Leader..."

Jing Hengzhou said coldly, "This is not my achievement alone."

At this moment, another person jumped off the carriage.

Everyone's attention was involuntarily drawn to that person.

This person had a full head of white hair, and when he raised his head, it took everyone's breath away.

"Blue eyes..."

"How could anyone have eyes of this color..."

However, some people, upon seeing the person's appearance clearly, frowned and fell into thought, feeling that the person looked somewhat familiar.

The sect leader's eyes widened in surprise: "You are..."

Jing Hengzhou grasped Bai Chao's hand: "This is the Holy Son from the Western Regions, Bai Chao."

Everyone gasped again.

Why is the alliance leader holding a man's hand?

The sect leader's brow twitched, and he looked at Jing Hengzhou, immediately understanding.

"So it is the Holy Son. The Holy Son has come from afar and must be tired from the journey. Please come in quickly."

The sect leader invited Bai Chao in, and the others had no choice but to follow.

Some people seemed to have remembered something, and leaned close to the sect leader, whispering, "Sect Leader, don't you think that Holy Son looks a bit like...?"

The sect leader frowned: "Don't talk nonsense. The Holy Son comes from the Western Regions. How could he be like others? Don't talk nonsense again."

"Yes……"

……

Jing Hengzhou declined the sect leader's offer to host a banquet and instead took Bai Chao back to his own courtyard.

Bai Chao curiously strolled around and made his assessment.

"Your life here is really simple and frugal."

"I don't come back here often on weekdays."

"Why, isn't this your home?"

"No."

Jing Hengzhou pulled the person into his lap.

"Wherever you are, that is our home."

Bai Chao blinked and happily kissed the corner of the man's lips.

"You people from the Central Plains really know how to say sweet nothings."

Jing Hengzhou handed him a luminous pearl.

Bai Chao's eyes lit up. He picked up the luminous pearl and exclaimed in surprise, "Could this be the Snow Soul Pearl?"

Jing Hengzhou hummed in agreement: "Do you like it?"

"Like it~"

Bai Chao held the pearl, touching it lovingly.

“There are many treasures you like inside.”

Bai Chao looked at Jing Hengzhou: "Give them all to me?"

Jing Hengzhou stroked Bai Chao's hair and said gently, "They're all yours."

Bai Chao rolled his eyes: "Is this my betrothal gift?"

Jing Hengzhou paused, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"No."

Before Bai Chao could close his eyes, Jing Hengzhou continued, "Those things in the room originally belonged to you. As for the betrothal gifts, I will choose other treasures that you like."

Bai Chao was pleased, his eyes crinkling into a smile: "Hmph, you're smart to know what's good for you."

Jing Hengzhou pulled Bai Chao closer to his chest and lowered his head to kiss Bai Chao's lips.

But just then, a sudden banging on the door broke the warm atmosphere in the yard.

Jing Hengzhou opened the door and saw a figure rush in and kneel straight down in front of Bai Chao.

Bai Chao looked at the figure in front of him and raised an eyebrow: "What brings you here?"

Xiao Tang remained silent, knelt on the ground, and began to kowtow. The sound was loud, indicating that she was kowtowing very forcefully.

"..."

Bai Chao clicked his tongue: "Stop kowtowing."

Xiao Tang seemed not to hear, and continued kowtowing.

Bai Chao looked at Jing Hengzhou.

Jing Hengzhou walked over and picked Xiao Tang up.

Bai Chao looked at Xiao Tang's red eyes: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Tang made "ah ah" sounds while gesturing with her hands.

Bai Chao tried to understand: "You want to take me somewhere?"

Xiao Tang nodded vigorously.

Bai Chao gestured for Jing Hengzhou to release the person and stood up.

"Let's go."

Xiao Tang quickly led them out.

As they walked, the surrounding scenery gradually changed into dark and damp buildings, and Jing Hengzhou's face darkened.

He reached out and grabbed Bai Chao.

"Ah Chao, don't go in."

"..." Bai Chao turned to look at Jing Hengzhou, "Why?"

Jing Hengzhou's voice was tense: "It's too damp here... I'll go in for you."

When Xiao Tang noticed that they hadn't come over, she anxiously ran over and gestured with her fingers.

Seeing that they still didn't move, Xiao Tang was about to kneel down and kowtow again.

Bai Chao sighed.

"Jing Hengzhou, it's just a water dungeon. What's there that I can't go into?"

“Ah Chao…”

Bai Chao grabbed Jing Hengzhou's arm: "What, are you hiding a mistress in there?"

"..."

"Ah Chao, the term 'water dungeon' is not appropriate."

"Oh~"

Xiao Tang let out two spoilsporting "ahs".

Bai Chao glanced at Xiao Tang: "Alright, lead the way."

Xiao Tang glanced nervously at Jing Hengzhou.

Jing Hengzhou frowned, but still granted Bai Chao's wish: "Okay."
