    Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Customized Wedding Rings

    The market in the Demon Realm is not far from the Demon Palace, and it only takes a short walk to burn an incense stick.

    Ji Hantong held Shen Lanchuan’s hand and walked around, looking as novel as a child.

    The market in the demon world is indeed different from that in the cultivation world.The items sold were strange and weird, including the teeth of monsters, various unnamed herbs, weird magic weapons, and all kinds of gadgets.

    Ji Hantong was so dazzled that he ran to this stall to look at it, and to touch it like a bird out of its cage.

    Shen Lanchuan followed him, his eyes always falling on him, his eyes full of tenderness and doting.

    Suddenly, Ji Hantong stopped.

    He turned back to look at Shen Lanchuan, only to see that Shen Lanchuan had stopped in front of a stall at some point and was staring straight at the things on the stall.

    Ji Hantong walked back curiously and followed his gaze.Then his face turned red instantly, and the stall was filled with all kinds of “indecent” things.

    There are gauze clothes as thin as cicada wings, bracelets and anklets studded with bells, strange-shaped mouths, and albums of pictures – the cover shows two entangled figures in a bold pose that makes people dare not look closely.

    Ji Hantong only glanced at it and quickly looked away, his face as red as a cooked shrimp.

    “S-Senior Brother!” Ji Hantong stammered, “You… you don’t know…” You didn’t buy it here before, right?

    Shen Lanchuan didn’t answer. At that moment, the stall owner Wen Xian Sanren noticed them and walked up with a smiling face.

    “Isn’t this Lord Demon King? He’s come to visit my stall again. Are the things I prepared for you last time still useful?”

    Taoist Caiwu, another evil cultivator next to him, also waved to Shen Lanchuan: “It’s been a long time, Lord Demon Lord. Are you interested in these new ‘talk books’ of mine? They are all good things~”

    Ji Hantong was shocked. It’s not like you were acquaintances with them, senior brother. How many messy things did you buy behind my back?

    Shen Lanchuan stretched out his hand, picked up a bracelet studded with silver bells and shook it gently in the sun.

    Jingle bell——

    The voice was crisp and ambiguous.

    Certain images flashed through Ji Hantong’s mind and his face turned even redder.

    “You, you…what do you want to do?”

    Shen Lanchuan turned his head and looked at him, with a meaningful smile in his eyes.

    “Didn’t you like those last time?”

    Ji Hantong was stunned for a moment.

    Shen Lanchuan continued: “I asked someone to make a new batch, but you never wore it.”

    Ji Hantong: “…”

    So senior brother is going to choose it for him personally?

    “No, no need!” Ji Hantong waved his hands quickly, “I, I think the previous one was pretty good! No need to change it!”

    Shen Lanchuan looked at him, the smile in his eyes getting deeper.

    “Really?”

    “Really, really!” Ji Hantong nodded desperately, for fear that he would say something shocking again.

    Shen Lanchuan was silent for a moment, and then laughed softly.

    He put the bracelet back on the stall and said seriously to Wenxian Sanren: “Except for this silver chain, wrap everything else up for me and send them to the Demon Palace to pay the bill to Hua Feixue.”

    Wenxian Sanren immediately beamed with joy: “Okay, Lord Demon Lord, I will wrap it up for you right now.”

    While Shen Lanchuan was chatting with Wen Xian about the follow-up matters, Taoist Caiwu pulled Ji Hantong aside.

    She mysteriously took out a small bottle and handed it to Ji Hantong, and whispered: “Master, thank you and Lord Demon for often coming to take care of our business. This is just a gift.”

    Taoist Caiwu muttered a few words, and Ji Hantong was startled, blushing and about to push the bottle back.

    Shen Lanchuan heard the sound and looked over here. Taoist Caiwu quickly distanced himself from Ji Hantong, showing that he was very measured.

    Ji Hantong felt that he could not return the bottle, so he had no choice but to accept it.

    Watching the two people leave, Taoist Caiwu immediately pulled Wenxian Sanren and started to pack up his things and run away.

    “What are you doing?” Wenxian Sanren was puzzled.

    “If we don’t leave, that young master will probably come back to seek revenge on us.” Taoist Caiwu whispered.

    “What exactly did you give him?” Wenxian Sanren was curious.

    “Well, well, well…”

    Ji Hantong pinched the small bottle, his face was still very hot.

    He couldn’t even think about what Taoist Caiwu gave him.But he couldn’t care about that at the moment. Ji Hantong stuffed the bottle into his sleeve randomly, took a few deep breaths, and tried to look normal.

    Shen Lanchuan and Ji Hantong were walking side by side, and his eyes fell on Ji Hantong with a bit of inquiry.

    “What’s wrong?” Shen Lanchuan asked, “Your face is so red.”

    Ji Hantong shook his head quickly: “It’s nothing, it’s just a little hot.”

    Shen Lanchuan raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

    Ji Hantong looked away guiltily, fearing that he would see something.But at this moment, he caught a glimpse of a shop on the corner of the street, and his footsteps suddenly stopped.

    It was a jewelry store.

    The shop is not big, and there are strings of silver bells hanging at the door, which jingle when the wind blows.Through the half-open door, you can see a variety of exquisite jewelry inside – hairpins, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, a dazzling array.

    Ji Hantong’s heart skipped a beat. This was exactly the purpose of his coming out this time.

    ring.

    Ji Hantong wanted to make a pair of rings to propose to his senior brother in the modern world.

    This thought lingered in his mind for a long time, and Ji Hantong had been thinking about it ever since he returned to this world.He left his senior brother behind and ran away during the bond-making ceremony. He didn’t even have time to finish shouting “bow to heaven and earth”. He owed his senior brother a formal and complete wedding.

    Ji Hantong wanted to make up for it, and last time it was his senior brother who proposed marriage, so this time it was his turn to propose.

    He bit his lip and turned his head to look at Shen Lanchuan.

    “Senior brother.”

    “Huh?”

    “I…I’m a little hungry,” Ji Hantong pointed to the food stall nearby, “Can you go buy some meat skewers for me?”

    Shen Lanchuan looked along his fingers, then withdrew his gaze and landed on his face.

    Neither of them are good at lying. Just like Ji Hantong saw his clumsy lies when he was in Su Xin’s secret realm, Shen Lanchuan also saw through that Ji Hantong was just looking for an excuse to leave.

    Ji Hantong felt weak when he saw him, but he forced a smile on his face: “Just, just for a while, I’ll wait for you here.”

    Shen Lanchuan remained silent and didn’t speak. He just looked at Ji Hantong for a long time.

    It took so long that Ji Hantong thought he was going to refuse.

    Then Shen Lanchuan nodded.

    “Okay.” Shen Lanchuan turned around and walked towards the food stall. After walking a few steps, he stopped and looked back at Ji Hantong.

    There were too many emotions in that look that Ji Hantong couldn’t understand.But Shen Lanchuan didn’t say anything, he averted his eyes and continued to move forward.

    Ji Hantong stood there, watching his back disappear into the crowd, feeling suddenly sour in his heart.

    The senior brother must have known that he was pushing him away, but he just agreed without asking or saying anything.

    Even after going through such painful ten years, even if he has psychological shadow over this kind of thing, in front of him, the senior brother is still the gentle senior brother.

    Ji Hantong took a deep breath, turned around and ran towards the jewelry store.

    There was only an old man with gray hair in the shop, sitting behind the counter and taking a nap.Hearing the footsteps, he opened his eyes and glanced lazily at Ji Hantong.

    “What does the guest want?”

    Ji Hantong walked to the counter and said to the old man very solemnly: “I want to customize a pair of rings.”

    Old man: “Ring?”

    “Yes,” Ji Hantong gestured, “a pair, exactly the same, with a few letters engraved on the inner circle, uh no… they’re symbols, forget it, do you have paper and pen here? I’ll draw them myself.”

    The old man brought a pen and paper, Ji Hantong drew the pattern he had thought of before coming, and then carefully wrote his and Shen Lanchuan’s initials on the paper.

    Shen Lanchuan held the meat skewers and stood in the crowd, looking in the direction of the jewelry shop.

    A stick of incense passed.

    Two sticks of incense passed.

    Ji Hantong hasn’t come out yet.

    Shen Lanchuan’s hand tightened slightly, and the bamboo stick made a slight breaking sound.

    He knew that his junior brother was trying to fend him off, and that he had his own little secret to do.He was willing to wait, willing to pretend not to know, and willing to give him space – because he didn’t want to force his junior brother again.

    But…why so long?

    Shen Lanchuan’s eyes gradually darkened.

    The fears that were suppressed in his heart and never really dissipated seemed to be awakened by something, and they surged up bit by bit.

    On the sixth day of the first lunar month ten years ago, Ji Hantong also said, “Brother, I’m sorry,” and then left without looking back.

    He remembered that look for ten years.

    Later Xiaomu died.

    He searched for the small piece of wood for ten years, waited for ten years, and fed the broken lamp with his blood for ten years.

    Finally, Xiaomu came back.

    Finally, Xiaomu said, “I will never leave again.”

    But now…

    Shen Lanchuan looked at the closed door of the jewelry store, and the wound on his chest seemed to hurt again.

    Will Junior Brother leave again?Or will you be greeted by another “Senior Brother, I’m sorry” after you go in?

    Shen Lanchuan’s breathing became rapid.The eyes that had been forcibly darkened by magic began to return to blood color, filled with increasingly darker emotions.The demonic energy around him began to escape uncontrollably, and the demon cultivators around him felt the suffocating pressure and retreated in horror.

    What happened to the Lord?Wasn’t it fine just now?

    Shen Lanchuan ignored those looks.He just stared at the shop, staring at the door that never opened, and the voice in his heart became louder and louder——

    The little wood is gone.

    The little wood left again.

    The little piece of wood left me behind again.

    Shen Lanchuan’s fingers clenched tightly, the bamboo stick broke completely, and the meat skewers fell to the ground, covered with dust.

    Haha, it would be better to lock up this heartless piece of wood completely.

    Ji Hantong…Ji Hantong really didn’t want to run away, but who knows how could Shen Xuzhi grow up in a store he randomly picked?!

    Not long ago.

    Ji Hantong had just handed the drawing to the old man and was about to follow him in to choose materials when he suddenly felt something was wrong behind him.

    He turned around suddenly and saw a familiar figure standing not far behind him.

    The man was wearing a moon-white brocade robe, with a warm jade-like smile on his face. He was shaking a folding fan in his hand, and his posture was as leisurely as if he was strolling through his back garden.

    Ji Hantong’s pupils suddenly shrank, and he said it deeply!The madman who kidnapped him ten years ago and wanted to tame him into a pet.Why is he here?!

    Shen Xuzhi looked at Ji Hantong’s shocked expression, and his smile deepened.He put away the folding fan and said leisurely: “Immortal Yuheng, long time no see.”

    Ji Hantong stiffened and subconsciously prepared to call Shen Lanchuan’s name, but his vision went black and he lost consciousness completely.

    Before losing consciousness, Ji Hantong thought with some annoyance that if something went wrong, his senior brother would go crazy again.

    The author has something to say: The deputy CPs will all have extra stories to give them a happy ending.

    At present, there is also a side story about the teenage years, which happens to be about the first drunken time. After all, this is the real first kiss of a young couple.[shy]

    There may also be a modern line, mainly because I haven’t decided whether to get an IF line or a young couple who time travels to modern times.
