C54 (1/2)

”How is it here? Beautiful, isn't it? ”

”Yes, it is indeed beautiful.”

Lan Yun stood on top of a hill, looking at the rising sun that was as bright as fire. He turned his head and asked me excitedly. Although I didn't feel anything, I was naturally unwilling to let her go.

”Why did you chase after me?”

Even though I guessed a little narcissistically, I wanted to know the truth, for no other reason, simply, just to know.

Lan Yun turned around with his back facing the sun. His blurry yet gentle figure stood a few feet away from me. Waves of fragrance drifted over. I suddenly felt that she was very beautiful … ” ”Because …” Lan Yun lowered his head and muttered to himself. Suddenly, he raised his head and smiled, ”Because you saved my life! A drop of water should be used to repay a debt of gratitude, not to mention the debt of gratitude to you for saving my life. ”

I was slightly disappointed in my heart. I didn't even realize that I was actually disappointed in a girl's insignificant words, even though I thought that I had already broken away from the relationship between us.

”A drop of water should be used to repay a debt of gratitude. Do you really want to repay me for saving your life?”

Those were just teasing words, but I realized that something was wrong when I said it. I quickly added, ”I'm sorry, I'm just joking. I definitely don't have any intention of offending you!”

Lan Yun's face reddened. She looked at me as though she was rebuking me. Then, she turned around and sat on the side of the cliff. She hung her legs and slowly swayed in the air. No one knows what she was thinking about.

”I came here to thank you. In fact, I wanted to thank you yesterday afternoon, but I didn't expect that you guys had already left, and I didn't expect you guys to be so fast, I chased you for a whole day and night, and almost gave up. After seeing this town, I wanted to try my luck, and if you're not here, I'll go back, and I didn't expect you to really be here! Is this fate? ”

I was still frustrated that I didn't even know how to say anything when I met a woman. Lan Yun just stood there, minding his own business and started talking. When I got to her side, I followed her example and sat down. I didn't notice that I was at the right distance from her.

”Say, why did you save me that day? Could it be that you've already seen that I can't block that sword?”

I smiled wryly in my heart. I could tell that something was wrong, but I couldn't possibly say that I ran behind you to protect my life and used you as a shield.

”Eh, actually …” I scratched my head, a little embarrassed, and said something that made me regret my actions: ”Because you are beautiful. I just don't want to hurt you, I want to protect you.”

Girls loved to listen to sweet talk from boys the most. Even if she knew that it might not be true, she still chose to believe it without hesitation, just like the blushing Lan Yun.

Looking at her with her head lowered as she fiddles with her clothes, I felt a little awkward. She must have misunderstood me saying those words. What am I doing?

”You, you really think so?”

After a long time, Lan Yun finally stopped rubbing the corner of his clothes. He turned his head and looked at me shyly.

Looking at her bright eyes, there seems to be a hopeful glint in them. I slowly nod my head.

During this period of silence, I thought of a plan, a plan to help me take revenge, and that is to cheat Lan Yun. It doesn't matter if I really like her, gain her heart, and use the power of the sword faction to help me topple the Sky Sect!

At this moment, my desire for revenge is so strong, I have to suppress all my emotions! At this moment, facing Lan Yun, I was no longer the anxious me just now, but instead, the me who only knew how to make use of and take revenge!

Her feelings for me, be it right or wrong, she finally became a chess piece in my eyes, destroying the happiness of a lifetime.

Humans were strange. In just a short time, their minds had changed. One moment, they were innocent. The next, they were scheming. It was all because of hatred, or maybe it was because of benefits!

I don't know if it was all for the sake of revenge that kept me from feeling confused, or if there was a shadow in my heart that made me not want to start feeling for someone else.
