"To see your taste, of course."
"Otherwise, what else could it be?"
Xiao Xun'er said confidently.
The corners of Lu Yuan's eyes twitched slightly.
He raised his hand and pointed at the closed door: "Then why don't you knock on the door?"
"I don't think it's necessary for me to knock on the door."
"With the relationship between you and me, if you knock on the door, you'll get out."
"Besides, it's not like I don't have the ability to come in."
"Why do you have to go through the door?"
Xiao Xun'er continued to speak confidently.
The overall attitude is mainly one of non-cooperation.
He even asked Lu Yuan why he wanted to leave.
It was indeed an eye-opener for Lu Yuan.
"That's just what you think."
"Others don't think so."
Lu Yuan held his forehead and retorted helplessly.
He glanced at Xiao Xun'er who didn't care, and shook his head dumbfounded: "That's right. If you are willing to listen to what I am telling you, it will save me the trouble of taking action. If you are not willing to listen, I won't do it. I can drive you out, but girls must know how to be reserved, or at least polite, and don't just climb over the wall and come in without knocking, or even stand at such a high place without fear of being exposed."
"Um?"
"What you mean by this is that you are not afraid that we will be deadlocked?"
Xiao Xun'er raised her eyebrows with a smile.
There is no need to say more about the meaning of that threat.
He even took the initiative to take a step forward and boldly stretched out his small hand to attack Lu Yuan's chin, as if to lift Lu Yuan's chin. Lu Yuan was so scared that Lu Yuan quickly slapped the hand away and pinched Xiao Xun'er with one hand. On the back of his neck, he jumped off the roof as if he was holding a kitten, and fell back into the yard, landing next to Qing Lin.
"What exactly are you going to do?"
Lu Yuan frowned, looked at Xiao Xun'er who didn't care, and added in a deep voice: "I remember I told you, regarding the choice between you and me, I hope you won't use any small tricks to make the relationship tense. , I feel bad, and neither will you or the ancient clan behind you. And by then, we will be enemies. You can attack the Yunlan Sect, but I will also attack the ancient clan. You can kill the Yunlan Sect. I will eradicate the grass and roots, but I will also completely exterminate the ancient tribe. Don't think of threatening me or coercing me in any way. The reason why I avoid you is actually that simple. After all, I never think that my ability to calculate people's hearts is better than that of everyone in the world. Strong, therefore, the easiest way to avoid trouble is to be indifferent and face everyone with an indifferent attitude. In this regard, you who have played tricks on everyone in the Xiao family should know it best, right?"
"certainly."
"If you have to say it that way, it's true."
Xiao Xun'er smiled charmingly.
Slender white fingers lifted up the hair on the temples.
Wrap it around your finger and swirl it gently.
He affirmed Lu Yuan's statement without hesitation.
But at the next moment, he suddenly retorted: "But you also don't understand my thoughts. The indifference you think is just the indifference you pretend to be. It can be seen that you are different from those prodigal sons who live in debauchery. Every move you make can... I see that you are a very polite person. At least, you used to be very polite. I know my own charm. You can control yourself when I take the initiative. You are the best person I have met so far. Among them, the person with the calmest mentality and the best ability to control himself."
"Can I understand that you are complimenting me?"
"Choose the latter among beasts and beasts."
Lu Yuan sneered.
He asked rhetorically without any intention of peace talks.
But unexpectedly, he saw Xiao Xun'er's indifferent pretty face and the fleeting recognition and compassion in her smart eyes.
"You've been hurt."
"So you're afraid of me."
"You always have conflicting ideas."
"from the beginning till now."
"There's always conflict."
"To be precise, it's a contradiction."
"Your thoughts..."
"No, I should say, your soul..."
"Full of contradictions!"
"Whatever you want to do, you always worry about something!"
"You like to take one step and count it ten steps!"
"But the more this happens, the more you trap yourself in a small space, making every move of yours full of contradictions, and every move of yours filled with a sense of fragmentation."
“It’s like one you and another you are dealing with the same thing at the same time. In many places, you can see traces that belong to you, but in other places, you can see traces that don’t belong to you. "
Xiao Xun'er was not afraid of Lu Yuan's increasingly cold eyes.
Instead, he took a step forward.
He raised his hand and took Lu Yuan's hand.
He even put his hands on his neck.
"My life depends on your thoughts."
"You can take my life anytime."
"So, you don't have to be afraid."
"I want to ask you to listen to what I have to say."
"Use this as a bargaining chip to give you peace of mind."
"how?"
Xiao Xun'er's eyes were full of determination.
It was the kind of determination that made Lu Yuan dare not look at him.
"Aren't you afraid that I will fulfill your request?"
"You know, I, Lu Yuan, am good at helping others."
"Your life is your own."
"It's gone, but everything is gone."
"What goes to the upper world..."
"What about destroying the soul clan..."
"What becomes the supreme or great master of heaven and earth..."
"If you die, there will be nothing left."
Lu Yuan said this.
With a cold face, she gently pinched Xiao Xun'er's slender neck. The soft touch was like life. It came and left easily, without any difficulty at all.
"I'm not afraid."
"because I like you."
Xiao Xun'er's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Lu Yuan can feel it.
At the same time as he said these words, the fighting energy in Xiao Xun'er's body circulated a little faster, which was indeed consistent with the performance of whim, but it made him feel even more headache and overwhelmed.
killed?
To be honest, it's really not necessary.
He dared to kill.
However, after killing him, the consequences will be very troublesome.
Moreover, he is not a person who can take other people's lives at will without reason. Of course, many lives are not his turn, just like the monsters he ordered to be executed during the expedition to the Western Regions. However, those monsters also have dirty hands. Filled with the blood of the human race, let the dead come to kill him. He did not have the ability and could not meet the conditions, so he only chose to bear the sin of killing himself.
But……
Throughout the fifteen years of Xiao Xun'er's life...
Before being sent to the Xiao family, Xiao Xun'er had no conditions for killing. This was not a matter of whether she wanted to kill, but that he simply did not have the ability.
After being sent to the Xiao family, Xiao Xun'er did not go on a killing spree because of something that made her unhappy. She did the most egregious things and just silently watched the Xiao family's children bullying Xiao Yan. , let yourself appear in front of Xiao Yan as a good person and become the person Xiao Yan trusts most.
No one was killed during the whole process. As long as you don't approach with those dirty thoughts, there won't be any too miserable ending.
As for...
People who approach with dirty thoughts...
It has been burned to ashes...
certainly.
This does not mean that Xiao Xun'er is ruthless.
This is just the most basic sense of self-protection.
It would be the same approach for anyone else.
Even without extraordinary abilities, it does not prevent many ordinary people from protecting themselves. At most, the methods of self-protection are different, and the damage caused to the counterattack targets is different, that's all.
Moreover, if you encounter a dangerous situation similar to this and don't know how to protect yourself, and think that self-protection means distrusting others, then it must be a strategic weapon called "The Holy Mother". Once it is thrown into the opposite camp, It can cause unparalleled lethality to the opponent. From a certain perspective, it is worth protecting.
all in all.
From any angle.
Xiao Xun'er had never killed any life that she shouldn't have killed.
Killing Xiao Xun'er was a spiritual test for him. Even if he said that he had no bottom line, he could not act recklessly. After all, he was a rational and emotional person.
But it also meant that his heart was being seen through.
His thoughts may be clearly seen by Xiao Xun'er.
so……
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Lu Yuan asked.
Slowly lower your hand.
Even though Xiao Xun'er brought it up by herself.
He looked at Xiao Xun'er in front of him.
He crossed his arms and frowned slightly: "This is the reason why I don't want to contact you. If the relationship between you and me before was that I couldn't tell the truth of what you said, and you couldn't tell the truth of what I said. True or false, now, I cannot unilaterally analyze whether what you said is true or false. From another more dangerous perspective, at this moment, you already have the ability to threaten my life. After all, although I can predict What will happen in the future, but as long as the plan you arrange is long enough, secretive enough, and interlocking, the killing blow will be revealed at the last moment, when I see it but can't look back at all, even if it is I don’t have a better way to avoid it.”
"yes."
"Then why don't you kill me?"
"Is it because I said, I like you?"
Xiao Xun'er tilted her head and said with a smile.
Immediately, he looked at Lu Yuan's hand with meaning.
Added: "It's too late to kill now."
"No."
Lu Yuan had a sullen face and refused coldly.
Immediately, he retorted in a deep voice:
"I won't do it."
"I know, this is what you expected."
"But I won't change because of your expectations."
"If I go against my bottom line because you predict it right once, then when someone predicts me for the second or third time, I will also violate my bottom line for the second and third time, or even countless times."
“At that point, it’s hard to say whether I am me or not.”
"So, I won't violate my bottom line."
"Although, my bottom line is also very contradictory."
Having said this, Lu Yuan smiled bitterly.
This feeling of danger is really uncomfortable.
He hadn't felt this kind of pressure in a long time.
In the past, he was tired of scheming people's hearts, but he could barely gain a sense of security. But now, no matter whether he was scheming or not, he could not gain a sense of security. After all, Xiao Xun'er had too many cards in his hand, and any one of them would be enough. Let him treat it carefully.
Fortunately, everyone came here from scratch.
He envied the cards in Xiao Xun'er's hand.
Also envious of better cards than his.
But he never robs because of envy.
Take a deep breath and calm down.
He patted Qing Lin's little head and signaled Qing Lin to stay away. Then, Lu Yuan naturally brought up this uneasy topic and asked: "You are just telling me these things. I can't tell the truth from the lies." Nonsense?"
"of course not."
Xiao Xun'er shook her head.
Immediately, he nodded again.
It seemed that he saw the doubts in Lu Yuan's heart.
Smiling slightly, he looked seriously into Lu Yuan's eyes. He took another step forward and broke into the restricted area within three steps of Lu Yuan. Looking at Lu Yuan's eyes that were as cold as ice and filled with murderous intent, he said seriously :
"I am a very greedy person."
"There are many, many things I want."
"I never deny that I came here with interests and purposes in mind, but if you can, please listen to me. As I just said, this is a relatively long story, and I need time to tell it. To tell, you also need to give me time to tell.”
"But please believe it."
"Nothing I said to you today is false."
"I can guarantee this story with all the oaths you can imagine. I also know that it is very difficult to gain your trust. However, if you don't work hard, you will not get the results. I still understand, think about it. After thinking about it, I decided to tell you here."
"I can't even talk about a good time."
"To say it's a beautiful view is a bit pretentious."
"But this is the perfect time."
"At least, that's what I think."
With that said, Xiao Xun'er took a step forward again.
There is only one step away from Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan could even smell the fragrance on Xiao Xun'er's body.
That scent of hormonal interplay.
"Then say it!"
"Anyway, I can't stop you!"
Lu Yuan frowned and took two steps back calmly.
One step away, still a little too close.
If Huaizhu or Honghong and others were so close to him, he would accept it and wouldn't have any thoughts. However, Xiao Xun'er, a smart man, doing this really made him doubt what Xiao Xun'er had planned for him. To be able to make such a big sacrifice to get close to him.
"This story begins when I was a child."
Xiao Xun'er's eyebrows were curved.
It didn't force Lu Yuan any further.
He just gradually restrained his strong gaze.
Immediately, he said in a soft tone:
"I had an ordinary childhood."
"I don't know what kind of childhood counts as a happy one."
"However, my childhood did not make me feel happy."
"Short-lived, but still like the past."
"If I use one deed to divide my childhood and non-childhood time, then I think it should start from the day I was sent to the Xiao family, which means that my childhood is over."
"Too much intelligence is not a good thing."
"Because the more you look at it, the lonelier you get."
"I can't find a peer with whom I can communicate conceptually. Even Xiao Yan, who is relatively precocious, only has rich experience. I didn't understand why his experience was so rich before, but when you After both showing his identity to him, this so-called precocious maturity is just an advantage accumulated due to age, and even if it is an advantage, it cannot make up for the gap in IQ between people."
"So, I teased him."
"Although he didn't come with any ill intentions."
"However, I did not kill him."
"Otherwise, he would have been dead the moment he entered my courtyard. Otherwise, if any cat or dog could enter my room, then I would not be able to live safely until now. After all, many boys are here Even I can’t predict what irrational things a reckless and impulsive young person will do.”
"After that, it's just a few normal years."
"I admit that I took advantage of Xiao Yan."
"However, the disappearance of his fighting spirit was not something I did. If I have to say it, I just followed the trend. I am not the only one who has done this kind of thing. Many people in the world have done it. However, some people It’s just more extreme and more secretive than what I did.”
"Until you show up."
"For the first time, there was a change in my plan."
Speaking of this, Xiao Xun'er seemed to have remembered something interesting. The corners of Xiao Xun'er's mouth raised slightly, and there was a hint of smile in her tone:
"The first time I met you was in the hall of the Xiao family, which was the scene where Nalan Yanran broke off their engagement. If your memory is pretty good, you should be able to remember where you were sitting at that time."
"At the time, I was shocked."
"It's surprising in every sense of the word."
"Curiosity is often the beginning of liking."
"I know this."
"But I can't resist this law."
"I have investigated you, but before the results of my investigation came out, you saw through the plan I arranged for Xiao Yan at a glance, and even mercilessly arrested me and Ling Ying. "
"I admit my failure."
"But curiosity will not dissipate."
"On the contrary, it will be more intense."
"It's like a jar of strong wine."
“The longer you leave it, the more fragrant and mellow the flavor will be.”
"After that incident, I repeatedly checked the information I collected, but without exception, it was all information that could not be contacted by you. This actually made me more and more curious and made me more and more curious. I’m curious, who are you?”
"It's just that within a week, someone threw a soul palace envoy to me. If someone hadn't reviewed it with me later, I wouldn't have even known that I had such an enemy for no reason."
"Scheming, IQ, and skill."
"I'm totally surprised by what you're doing."
"So, I want to try to get to know you."
"Of course, at first, it was just to defeat you."
"However, when I started to get to know you, I discovered that you are actually a very contradictory person. As mentioned above, you really want someone to understand you, but you really don't want others to understand you. You want to taste what friendship is like, and don’t want your thoughts to be guessed."
"All of this makes me curious."
"And this curiosity gradually turned into liking."
"I want to get to know you."
"I want to get into your heart."
"I want to be someone you trust."
"Even though I know it's difficult."
"It's like you and I both know certain things."
"I know that this is actually a very difficult process for you, because throughout the entire process, I did not leave a good impression on you. I even said that if anyone has pure interests in you If I want to approach you for sexual purposes, it must be me.”
"But, this time, I really didn't approach you with any purpose."
Xiao Xun'er's concise expression directly pushed Lu Yuan to a point of no return. Even if Lu Yuan really didn't want to discuss this issue with Xiao Xun'er where he couldn't distinguish between true and false, he was not allowed to make a choice.
"Why is this so?"
Lu Yuan sighed.
To be honest, Xiao Xun'er was right.
Maybe not comprehensive, but enough.
Although he has regained his sensibility and achieved a balance between sensibility and rationality, balance does not mean that sensibility and rationality are harmonious, and differences will still break out on certain matters.
In other words, there are two options.
And he can only be forced to make a choice or deal with it.
It is impossible to make sensibility absolutely obey the command of reason on something, and it is also impossible to make reason absolutely obey the command of sensibility on something.
Very troublesome.
But that's the problem he's facing right now.
It's just a pity that he has no desire to answer these questions, nor does he have the idea to explain these questions. They all happened a long time ago, and even the answers or explanations are just a formality. The help is minimal.
However, Xiao Xun'er seemed to have noticed this.
He didn't force Lu Yuan to give him an answer.
Looking at Lu Yuan who fell silent, he couldn't help but sigh. He took two steps forward, stared into Lu Yuan's eyes, and said in a deep voice:
"It doesn't matter."
"My intuition tells me that it's a past you don't want to mention."
"I won't force anyone to do anything."
"So, I won't force you to answer this question."
"I'm not asking you to believe me, just like you can't tell if my words are true or false at this moment."
"You just need to know that I like you."
"A lie, if I can lie for a lifetime, isn't it also the truth?"
"So, I have enough patience and enough confidence to let you get to know me again, how about starting from this Canaan Academy?"
Xiao Xun'er said seriously.
Lu Yuan's eyes flickered slightly.
He carefully looked at Xiao Xun'er in front of him.
He looked at the beautiful and dangerous girl in front of him.
After a while, he nodded slowly.
However, before he could say anything, a noisy sound came into his ears, making his face turn cold involuntarily.
And outside the courtyard gate.
Bai Shan is complaining to Bai Cheng.
"That's it!"
"I've asked about it!"
"Brother, it was this freshman who beat me!"
"Take a group of Xiao family children and use them to bully the few!"
"However, this person is very powerful!"
"I don't have the ability to resist in his hands!"
"To tell you the truth, brother, I even thought I was fighting with you!"
Bai Shan said this with his conscience in mind.
Bai Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
"It's normal that you can't beat him."
"Brother can't give you a break either."
"He is a fighting spirit."
"A fifteen-year-old fighting spirit who is in the spotlight."
"I didn't bring you here this time to vent your anger."
"It is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies."
"Offending him will do you no good."
"There is no shame in losing at his hands."
"I just hope he can be smarter and don't refuse to give me this face and insist on being my enemy, insisting on being your enemy, that's all."
