Chapter 1113: Love And Hate (2/2)

Some time pa.s.sed. Li Qiye eventually woke up and found that all of his injuries had been treated.

“You’re awake.” A beautiful face full of concern came into Li Qiye’s view.

Who else could it be but Bu Lianxiang? She sat next to him and kept him company. It seemed that she had been here the entire time.

Li Qiye looked at her and gently nodded: “Thanks, Lianxiang. Without you saving me, I don’t even want to imagine the consequences.”

Her stare eventually turned cold along with her response: “You weren’t pretending just to look pitiful?”

“Pretending?” Li Qiye revealed a forced smile: “That would be toying with my life; just one misstep would have ended it all.”

“Really?” She quipped: “What have you ever refrained from doing? Hmph, such reckless undertakings are just a daily occurrence to you.”

“What can I do if you choose to think that way?” He smiled wryly and tried to get up. However, the motion affected his wounds, causing him to bite his teeth from pain.

She quickly helped him and scowled: “You are wounded everywhere, so stop acting strong. You can posture all you want after you are healed!”

Even though she was discontent and voiced her complaints, her actions indicated otherwise for they were full of love.

He rested on her thighs and looked at the beauty inches away. He gently sighed after seeing her flawless features and sighed: “After so many years, you are still so beautiful and enchanting, as if there have been no changes. Back then when everyone called you the prettiest girl in the nine worlds, they were truly correct.”

She maintained her glare and spoke with a distant tone: “What now? Why the sudden change of tone? Are you trying to trick me into doing something?”

“Am I really so rotten?” He treated her jade legs as a pillow and smiled: “I am only expressing my feelings. If time could flow backwards, I definitely wouldn’t have been able to stop myself from chasing after you, the nine worlds’ greatest beauty.”

“Hmph! Going back in time!” Her eyes turned cold like a blade piercing straight through him.

“Okay, okay, I shouldn’t have said that.” He quickly raised his hands to surrender: “What I’m trying to say is, is it too late if I try to chase you now?”

She proudly glanced at him with a n.o.ble appearance and uttered: “Hmph, that depends on your sincerity. If you can prove it, then I can think about it.”

“Just think about it?” Li Qiye smirked: “Remember, I am a man loved by all. Whoever meets me will harbor nothing but adoration; flowers blossom before my appearance. If you think too much, someone else will rob me first.”

“Go die!” She rolled her eyes at him: “Even if you are adored by all and flowers blossom before you, I still wouldn’t want you!”

Despite her answer, she unconsciously felt a sweet sensation in her heart. This was like a quarrel between two lovers.

“Time is always heartless.” Li Qiye gently and movingly spoke: “But people are full of emotions.”

Bu Lianxiang turned quiet while staring at the man resting on her thighs. She couldn’t help but gently caress his face. It was a real and natural sensation; an indescribable feeling permeated through her heart.

Millions of years of chasing… this was not a dream right now. Back then, she could only yearn for him under the moonlight. However, when their eyes met from far away, it seemed that it was destined for the two to be together in this lifetime.

Back then, she was only a young lady, but there had always been someone silently watching and caring for her in secrecy…

Throughout the long years, she had suspected that everything was fake. There were indeed lies mixed in with truths. However, this moment right now was reality. By touching his face, she knew that it was real.

Eventually, she softly spoke while still touching his face: “You owe me.”

“After millions of years of entangling with each other, I don’t know who owes who exactly.” Li Qiye gently sighed: “But at the very least, I don’t want to trick you in this generation because this could be my last.”

“Hush.” She pressed her finger against his lips and gently shook her head: “I don’t want you to say such unlucky words. You are eternal and can live on for millions of generations. Even when the high heavens wither, you will still be able to live on.”
