Zi You wondered if this counted as a loversâ rendezvous as she was going to meet Shangguan LingRan. She felt bashful. Thus, she bowed her head uncomfortably as she lifted the tent flap.
There was no movement from Shangguan LingRan. She raised her head. She looked right into the close and burning eyes of a handsome man.
The two looked each other as if they were glued together. Zi You wanted to look away, but Shangguan LingRanâs eyes seemed to contain some magic. She couldnât look away and was eager to gaze into the burning tenderness.
After a while, Zi You looked away first. She pretended to be angry as she asked, âItâs getting late. Do you want to look at stars?â
âOkay.â Shangguan LingRan flashed over to her side and picked up her hand very naturally. âYouYou, which peak are we going to?â
Zi You quickly struggled, but Shangguan LingRan held her small hand firmly. He didnât let go no matter how she struggled.
Zi You was angry and said in a low voice, âLet go of me!â
âNo!â Shangguan LingRan replied very firmly. He didnât have his usual careless and mischievous smile on his face. He said resolutely and overbearingly, âI wonât let go. I wonât let go. I wonât let you go for a lifetime!â
Zi Youâs whole body shook. She stood there dazed.
At this time, Shangguan LingRan wrapped his arm around her waist and pointed to the highest peak where Zi You normally cultivated her spiritual power. âYouYou, letâs go there. Itâs so high that we can see farther. Maybe we can see the lights from the capital.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He picked up Zi You and flew towards the mountain peak.
There was a particularly clean slope. The grass and weeds were all cleared and it was covered with oilcloth and carpet. Shangguan LingRan exclaimed, âSomeone seems to have come here before.â
He didnât wait for Zi You to reply before smiling happily. âOh, I know. YouYou, this is where you cultivate your spiritual power at night, right? Our hearts are really linked. Did you want to bring me here to look at the stars?â
His lazy voice contained doting. In this lonely and vast night, the combination was like a plume of feathers sweeping across her heart. It was as intimate as if it was done by a lover. A numbness quickly spread from the top of Zi Youâs heart to her limbs.
She came back to her senses. She turned her head and blinked her clear eyes. She said coquettishly, âWhose heart is linked with yours? That Yu Meilian right? Did you see how affectionate her eyes were when she looked at you in the plum blossom grove that day?â
Zi You thought of that day when Shangguan LingRan was protecting Yu Meilian. Even though she knew that he had been acting, her heart still felt sour. Her words imperceptibly contained anger and jealousy.
Shangguan LingRan obviously did not know what Zi You was really thinking. He looked at her angry face and was nervous. Although her words were faintly jealous, what if his realistic acting that day made her misunderstand what happened between him and Yu Meilian?
His good-looking face looked aggrieved. âYouYou, youâre wronging me. I have no control over her dead fish eyes. But the heavens, sun, and moon can be witnesses. Iâm really disgusted looking at her. You must believe me.â
Zi You looked at expression. His narrow eyes seemed to be aggrieved like a child who couldnât eat something that he wanted to. She couldnât help but reach out to pinch his waist. âWhat are you nervous about? I was just saying. You donât have to explain. What does you and her have to do with me? I......â
âI am not anyone to you.â This sentence hadnât been spoken when Shangguan LingRan reached his palm out and caught her small hand that was pinching his waist. His eyes emitted a dazzling light. âYouYou, I only have you in my heart. You donât have to care about anyone else. I know that you actually have me in your heart, right?â
What did it mean when a little sunshine was brilliant? The Shangguan LingRan in front of her was just that right now. He could tell from her tone, actions, and abnormal anger came from a little womanâs soft heart. He concluded from that Zi Youâs feelings towards him.
He didnât want to let her run away today. That was because he had already broken his brain with her resistance against him.
He wanted to force her to face the truth even though he didnât know what was troubling her to always be so resistant towards him.
Shangguan LingRanâs eyes were very beautiful. In the faint night sky, they were more shining and dazzling than the brightest stars and more gorgeous than the most luminous fireworks.
Zi You seemed to be sucked into his phoenix eyes. She suddenly became nervous. She even forgot to take back her hand that was in his hand.
She blinked and blinked.
