Chapter 204: My old friend is not here, so you play cards with me today
Jingliu was still taken out of the house by Ranqing, but whenever she thought about what happened in the house, she couldn't suppress the shame and anger in her heart. She couldn't help but wonder, what would happen if Ranqing still behaved like this on the street?
However, Jingliu's worries were obviously unnecessary. Qingqing would not persecute Jingliu in front of outsiders. The benefits were his own and others could not take advantage of them.
In the eyes of outsiders, Jingliu is still the solitary and cold white moon as clear as a mirror, and is still the storyteller's legend of the flawless flying light of the moonlight that is born and dies for nine hundred years, and the invincible Yunqi.
The two walked on the streets of Changletian, with Qing in front and Jingliu following fifteen steps behind. Qing put his hands behind his back and his voice reached Jingliu's ears.
"Seven hundred years, a generation. Now, the only people in Luofu who truly know you may be the old people left from that time. However, they encountered the Suhu Rebellion. Most of the Luofu people at that time had flaws in their hearts and minds, leaving behind a haze, and they didn't live long... Jing Yuan is a special case. His emotions are too stable."
"The prosperity of Changletian... It was like this when I first arrived in Luofu, it was like this when I left Luofu, and it was still like this when I returned to Luofu. Nothing has changed."
"They have changed...at least the people around them have changed." Lanqing, who was walking in front of Jingliu, gradually slowed down his pace and walked side by side with Jingliu. He turned his head and looked at Jingliu's profile, trying to see some emotional changes on her face.
"..." Speechless, she thought of Bai Heng, the fox who walked into her life with an absolutely sunny attitude. At that time, she had just become the Sword Master, and Bai Heng was one of her rare true friends.
Jing Liu was not good at socializing, but she always made a few acquaintances during the hundreds of years of fighting in the Yunqi Army. However, none of them survived... Over time, she no longer took the initiative to interact with outsiders. The time required to get to know each other was too long, so long that it was difficult to count, but the time required to separate the Yin and Yang was too short, so short that it only took a moment of sword light and shadow.
If meeting is destined to lead to separation, it is better not to meet... This is what Jingliu thought and did before he met Bai Heng.
The lonely bright moon will still be accompanied by starlight.
The stars will serve as a foil, to relieve loneliness, to reflect and highlight the beautiful moonlight.
"What purpose do you have in saying this other than to provoke me?"
"If someone could walk into your life in the past, it means you are not a heartless person. Bai Heng can do it, and so can I...
She shines with her character, and I with my absolute strength. No matter how much you don't want to admit it, from now on, your life can no longer be separated from me. Whether you are willing to accept it or fight it with all your might, you have no choice but to follow me."
Jingliu remained silent again, just like when she met Bai Heng. At that time, she was hesitant and at a loss about Bai Heng's kindness, but now she has no choice.
Ryuqing held out his hand to her, motioning her to take it. Jingliu knew that even if she ignored him, she would still forcefully let Ryuqing take his hand. Better to accept her fate than to be forced into it.
Jingliu gave his hand to Ryouqing and let him hold it.
"This is just my compromise with you. It doesn't have any other meaning. You should understand... Also, I remember you have a family. Aren't you afraid that those two will get jealous by doing this?"
"I never told them I liked you, so they won't care about you, they won't make a fuss about it... At most, they'll tie me up, and then smash me into a pulp with a sword bigger than a mountain, and smash you into a pulp too. That's nothing."
"The Envoy of Fertility is truly selfish."
"You are the first person to make such an evaluation, except for my self-deprecation."
"Really? That's an honor."
Lu Qing pulled Jing Liu along the way and chatted with her casually. During the conversation, Lu Qing found that although Jing Liu would not say anything to him actively, he would answer every question he asked with a tone mixed with sarcasm.
However, she did not show any impatience and tried her best to seize every opportunity to attack Qing. If she couldn't beat him, could she not just talk back?
Of course he couldn't win with words. The light attacking power of Jingliu's words couldn't even break through Lanqing's defense.
Lu Qing thought to himself that it was basically done. In another sense, he had become the person Jing Liu cared about the most, and his care for him was much higher than that for Ying Xing and Dan Feng.
From now on, whenever Jingliu has any negative emotions, the first person he thinks of will be Lanqing. Whenever he recalls the past, the first person he thinks of will also be Lanqing.
Jingliu didn't realize this, but if she had, she would definitely feel that her future was bleak.
Passing by a place that Chang Letian was familiar with, Qing Qing habitually looked towards the place where he used to play cards with Qing Que. Every time he passed by, he would look at it... In front of that small card table, he hadn't seen Qing Que for a long time.
For the first time, Lu Qing felt the passage of time on his body. He pulled Jing Liu and said on a whim: "Come and fight Di Heng Qiong Yu with me. I will teach you."
"The envoy actually likes this kind of gadget?"
"Don't worry about that, come play with me!"
