38 Ran Haoyu (1/2)
Hearing this was like a music in the girl's ears. Her eyes filled with despair was now covered with glittering sparks like the brightest star in the dark sky. This voice mesmerized her that it made her addicted to it. She wanter to hear it again for thousand times!
However, she immediately retracted her current expression and said, ”Don't speak nonsense.”
”I am not speaking nonsense.” Jin Rou retained his smiled, ”My mother always says to me that life is a gift that should be treasured. So I will be your hope, isn't that a good thing?”
The girl only stared at him with eyes changing different expressions after another, a moment ago it was excitement, and was changed to despair and changed again to a glint of hope and was changed again to sorrowful eyes.
Jin Rou, of course, noticed this but did not mind it. The girl wanted to say something but she had no way to speak it out. After a moment of silence, Jin Rou asked, ”What is your name?”
The girl stayed quiet for a while and eventually answered, ”Ran.. Ran Haoyu.”
Jin Rou smiled as he heard the answer and complimented, ”That is a good name.”
The girl did not say anything again as if she did not hear it and remained gazing to the starry sky.
If this was another person, just by being ignored many times would make Jin Rou displeased, but toward Ran Haoyu, not even a bit of hostility he bore.
Jin Rou actually felt the sadness and longing when Jin Rou dived into her memories of the bitter past. After all, Ran Haoyu was a good girl and always humble but was still forsaken by fate. Jin Rou thought if ever Ran Haoyu hated the heavens for this cursed fate of her.
Jin Rou deeply sighed in his heart. The next minutes were only filled silence but this silence had its undescribable comfort for Ran Haoyu. She even wished that this feeling last. This was a very warm and gentle comfort that could make her drown in pleasure.
After a long silence, Ran Haoyu broke it and asked once again, ”Do you really not want my lotus? This can make you leap to the Sky Realm. This can benefit who consumes it greatly.”
Jin Rou chuckled lightly and softly as he answered her, ”Rest assured, I have no interest in your lotus. In fact, I can help you consume it if you desired to.”
”Consume it?” Ran Haoyu was taken aback by this. ”Impossible. That is impossible.”
