"Gu Jie, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I never liked you, and I shouldn't have used your love for me to hurt you with confidence. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."
Two lines of clear tears slid down her face, Lin Xue confessed and hung her head, feeling extremely guilty.
sorry.
Gu Jie could tell that her apology was sincere and Lin Xue really realized that she was wrong.
However, Gu Jie's heart hurt even more.
I never liked you.
"That's true..."
He knew in his heart that Lin Xue had no feelings for him at all, but when Lin Xue came out of his mouth, Gu Jie's heart was as sharp as a knife.
It's actually normal for people you like to dislike you.
It’s normal to be rejected.
And usually they are declined politely.
But it is undoubtedly the cruelest thing to have the person you like say the words "I have never liked you" in person.
sorry?
Haha, the two most useless sentences in the world are sorry and thank you.
"The scars on your body..."
Lin Xue looked at Gu Jie with eyes red from crying.
"Hey, it's nothing big. It's been fine for a long time. It doesn't hurt at all."
Gu Jie forced a smile and said he didn't care.
What else can I do besides pretending not to care?
What's the use of being sorry?
She never liked herself.
This sentence is enough, I really should let it go.
"If nothing happens, just leave."
Gu Jie didn't know what to do. Facing Lin Xue didn't feel as oppressive as facing Wuliang Nu, but it made him feel very confused.
Moreover, Lin Xue has already said "I have never liked you", so why should I do this again?
"...."
But after Lin Xue heard this, her figure stood there without moving.
She didn't leave.
........
"After so many years, I have come to understand that true justice means not owing anyone anything."
........
Lin Xue thought of what Suo Yi had just said to her.
Everyone has the word "righteousness" in their heart. It is not to help others or do good deeds to accumulate virtue, but to live an upright life with an open heart and not owe anyone anything.
Maybe now is the time to pay off your debt.
"You...do you have anything else to do?"
Gu Jie glanced at Lin Xue who was not moving and asked.
"do you hate me?"
Lin Xue took a deep breath, as if she had made some important decision, her eyes suddenly became sharp, and she asked Gu Jie.
"It's all over, why are you still asking this?"
Gu Jie was a little confused by Lin Xue's sudden change, but he still laughed awkwardly.
"I would like to know."
Lin Xue asked in a serious tone.
"You should hate it. I hope there will never be any contact between us, preferably one that we will never see."
Gu Jie sighed.
In fact, what does it matter whether you hate it or not?
She doesn't like herself anyway, and even if she hates her, all she gets in exchange is that she's sorry.
Sorry, what a useless and ridiculous sentence.
"I see."
Lin Xue said something, gritted her teeth, and slowly untied her white clothes.
"What are you doing?!"
Gu Jie was shocked by Lin Xue's behavior.
What is Lin Xue doing?
The white clothes fell to the ground, revealing her snow-white body. Lin Xue's body like mutton-fat jade was naked in the air, and Gu Jie quickly turned his head to the side, not looking at her.
"I owe you what I owe you, and I will pay it back to you now."
Lin Xue whispered.
I'll pay you what I owe you.
Immediately, under Gu Jie's extremely surprised gaze, Lin Xue walked towards him in the lake step by step.
...........
After a long time.
Lin Xue returned to the lake, picked up the white clothes on the ground, and put on her clothes again.
There was still a slight flush on her face, as if her whole body had undergone some kind of transformation.
"I don't owe you anymore."
After leaving a few words, Lin Xue drifted away.
"..."
Gu Jie was left alone in Huzheng, dazed and stunned.
Why would she... do this?
Doesn’t she dislike herself?
However, if you don’t like yourself, why should you be with yourself?
Gu Jie only felt that his mind was blank now, and Lin Xue's body fragrance was still lingering on the tip of his nose.
........
The night has passed.
second.
Today is the wedding day for Wuliang Nu, the master of Shangting Palace.
In order to publicize the news, Shangting Palace specially made this wedding very grand. All the forces in the Beiying Domain that had no hostile relationship with Shangting Palace came. Even some forces that had hostile relationships with Shangting Palace came. He began to show his kindness to Shangting Palace, brought expensive gifts, and apologized with great humility.
"Fellow Taoist Chengchun, this is the thousand-year-old spiritual ginseng from our Yulan Sect. It is specially given to congratulate Palace Master Wuliang. You must accept it."
"You're welcome."
"No, no, no, it was our Yulan Sect that caused many offences in the past. From now on, in this Northern Ying Territory, our Yulan Sect will be the leader of Shangting Palace!"
"Yes, and I, Tiemamen, are also here to apologize to Shangting Palace."
"My Yin Po Cult also brought generous gifts to apologize."
........
"Huh...there are so many people coming."
Seeing such a lively scene, Cheng Chun wiped the sweat from his forehead. As the head of Wuliang Nu's four personal guards, she was very busy entertaining guests today.
"Sister Chengchun."
Zi Xia and Sheng Qiu both came over.
"Oh, I really looked at these snobbish people. I used to wish I could see the Shangting Palace destroyed, but now they are nodding and bowing, approaching like dogs."
Seeing the guests whose attitude had changed so drastically, Zi Xia said with disdain.
"This is how people are, just get used to it."
Shengqiu said calmly.
"Late Qiu, Zi Xia, what is going on? Why is the palace master suddenly getting married?"
Chengchun asked.
Chengchun just came back this morning. Before that, she had been dealing with the two sects of Fengsha Valley and King Kong Sect.
"Really, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing earlier?"
Chengchun said with a bit of complaint.
"The palace master came back yesterday and is getting married today. We are also preparing in a hurry."
Shengqiu said with a bitter smile.
"Didn't Lingdong come back?"
"As soon as the news came out that the Palace Master is getting married to the heir to the leader of the Donghai Duobao Beast Clan, the two sects of Fengshagu and Jingangmen no longer dare to put pressure on us to go to Tingting Palace. However, I am still uneasy and worried that something will happen, so let Ling Dong stays there.”
Chengchun said.
"By the way, you must have met the heir to the head of the Donghai Duobao Beast Clan, right? How is he?"
Chengchun asked.
"this........"
Zi Xia and Sheng Qiu looked at each other with expressions that were hard to explain.
"Why are you showing such a weird expression? Since he can be valued by the palace master, I think he must be an extraordinary person. I really want to meet him urgently."
Chengchun looked forward to it.
An extraordinary person?
So...it's not wrong, anyway, Gu Jie does look extraordinary.
"Forehead........"
Zi Xia and Sheng Qiu didn't know how to explain to Cheng Chun.
