"Don't you have a very good relationship with that person?"
Feeling the hot breath coming out of the kettle handed over by Duan Qing, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was holding her knees in front of her, asked in a low voice: "You look like you are about to fight... …”
"Hey, is there something wrong with your understanding?" Her unfinished words were later interrupted by Duan Qing's cry: "How can you tell from the conversation just now that there is a difference between the two of us?" The relationship is not good? The relationship is obviously very good!"
"I'm not interested in the weird friendship between you men." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who frowned and turned his head, ignoring Duan Qing's laughter, also turned his gaze forward: "I only care about you. Will this exchange between us affect our next plans, and will he become an obstacle to us?"
"Probably not, that guy has no such interest." Duan Qing, who also sat next to the other party, answered with a bit of sighing indifference: "Unless, as he said, find someone Have a fight with someone he can like, or—"
The gray-robed magician did not say the rest of the sentence, but Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was as sharp as a clear mirror, immediately caught what Duan Qing had not said yet, and his brows also He frowned slightly: "Or is it because of women?"
"..."
"If it was because of women, how did you get together in the first place?"
In the awkward atmosphere where Duan Qing gradually fell silent in front of him, Xue Ling Huan Bing continued as if no one else was watching: "How can jealous men become such good friends - do you really have such a good temper and mind?"
"A lot of things did happen between us. I can't fully describe the charm of Yu Shang when he first debuted in one word." Duan Qing curled his lips and then recalled the memories bursting out of his eyes. He slowly put away the color: "Of course, even now I sometimes can't understand the subsequent progress and various effects of these stories, just like this swordsman whose state of mind and strength have always stood at the top level of players. Why is Beidong willing to lower his profile to such an extent? I won’t ask him what he has in mind.”
"Especially me standing in the center of the vortex - I'm not the person to ask this question."
His gaze lowered to the night scene in front of him, and Duan Qing's eyes obviously lost their original focus: "Anyway, everything in the past has been cut off by me, and the so-called entanglements and threads have also disappeared from 'Duan Tianfeng'."
"Really? Why didn't I see it?" Tilting her head, the woman named Xue Ling Huan Bing also cast her cold eyes on Duan Qing: "Let's not talk about the threat just now. The sword is in the north, and I only saw the attitude shown so far by Xu Yu Liushang who has chased here, but there is no sign of cutting it at all."
"I see, this is the reason why you are so dissatisfied, right?" The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and Duan Qing looked back at the other person's face with squinted eyes: "Are you...jealous?"
Snapped.
What answered him was Xue Ling Huan Bing's slap without hesitation, and her deep gaze returning to the night scene in front of her while holding the kettle: "No."
"Look, the past is the past and the present is the present. Since I now insist that I have said goodbye to my past self, isn't this a more favorable situation for you?" He grabbed himself and was thrown in the face. Duan Qing endured the pain and continued with a blushing face: "You have an advantage now."
"Really? Why didn't I see it?" After pulling his hand but there was no reaction at all, Xue Ling Huan Bing had no choice but to turn his head to the side angrily: "If it weren't for the things outside the court, that whisper Liu Shang must still be by your side."
"Alas, the troubles of the little prince in love are so obvious." Duan Qing covered his forehead with his hands, showing a helpless look: "Even if you stand here without moving, there will be countless beautiful butterflies. Fly in front of me."
"Oh? Are you sure he is the little prince in love and not the king of scumbags?" Xue Ling Huan Bing blinked her eyes and still pressed her hand on the other person's face, but there was a hint of sarcastic smile in her eyes. Meaning: "Or was he personally given the title by someone's daughter?"
"Ahem, let's skip this topic." Duan Qing put away his cool look with some embarrassment, and wiped the other half of his heated face: "Anyway, since I have been a member of the family, As a member of the family, you should know how chaotic the lives of the children of the family are. Those who are for money or power will always desperately want to get close to us, trying to extract their own benefits from these relationships. "
"Of course there are some people who hope for love, but such people are in the minority after all." Duan Qing's voice became more melancholy when he said this: "In order to maintain the purity of the bloodline and eliminate interference from outsiders, the big family People will also look for matches among themselves, hoping to select a 'well-matched' partner... Well."
"Don't mind, I know." Still looking at the other person's face, the voice belonging to Xue Ling Huan Bing also sounded after Duan Qing hesitated for a moment: "I am one of them, right?"
"It's obviously the two of us. You can't slap this kind of thing together." After muttering such words in a low voice, Duan Qing then scratched his head and changed the topic that was more likely to lead to death: "Not counting the two of us, the others There have also been many situations where people in the family were 'matched', and one of the more famous political marriages was between Jian Beidong and Lou Yushang."
"Of course, you may not have heard of it. After all, this marriage is very secretive, and its final scandal is also even greater." Duan Qing calmed down Xue Ling Huan Bing's emotions and the curious expression on his face as he was about to ask questions. Zi Di continued to explain: "At that time, Jian Beidong was much more arrogant than he is now. Facing Lou Yushang, who also had the temperament and temper of a queen, the final result can be imagined. I heard that the boy wanted to To get rid of and destroy this marriage, he had a lot of women outside, and later he deliberately spread the news, saying things like 'Everything picked up on the roadside is better than Lou Yushang'..."
"Are you so ruthless?" Recalling her efforts to get rid of that political marriage, Xue Ling Huan Bing asked with some surprise: "Then how did Lou Yushang respond?"
"Lou Yushang didn't respond. Of course she knew this was just Jian Beidong's trick." Duan Qing shook his head with a wry smile: "She just started to play virtual games in the game world after everyone started playing them." I played tricks on him countless times, and coupled with that guy’s strange attributes that could be called the King of Unlucky Ghosts at the time, those tricks and tricks became more and more successful every time.”
"Just like that, the two of them didn't get together in the end?" The confusion in Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes became more obvious: "I thought they would become happy enemies just like a normal romance. .”
"If it weren't for me, the two of them might have ended up like this."
Somewhat reluctantly, he put away his desire to continue to popularize gossip knowledge, and Duan Qing's expression and tone became a little deeper when he spoke again: "——As a result, after many competitions in the game world, between us The relationship between us actually got better. Even when the name of 'Cruhid' began to be heard all over the world, the names of 'Time Witch' and I had become louder than anyone else. The reputations of Beidong and Ninglan have become even weaker."
"...Then what really happened between you two?"
"You care?"
"I-I don't care!"
Saying this with hatred, Xue Ling Huan Bing tried to pull away the hand that was pressed on her face by Duan Qing: "What does your past love history have to do with me! I just heard about your bad things. His reputation and rumors were extremely high, so he strongly opposed his father...and the marriage..."
"Look, you still care about the result, don't you?"
Feeling the other party's increasingly narrowed voice and increasingly red face, Duan Qing couldn't help but let out a few chuckles: "Even after so many things and understanding each other, I also feel that the agreement we made before The marriage contract was very hasty, and this principle still holds true today. Even if two people know each other well, there may be a gap between them, not to mention that our understanding of each other is not that deep. "
"If you object now, or feel that there is room for regret and repentance, I have no objection at all." Duan Qing sighed involuntarily when he said this: "After all, feelings can't be I’m forcing it. If I give you some more time to calm down and think about it carefully, you might still find many of my shortcomings like you did three years ago, and... uh..."
"Hey, hey, you-"
The hand beside his cheek began to become cold, but inexplicable sweat oozed from the palm of his hand. Duan Qing, who noticed this abnormality, quickly turned his head, and what came into view was Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was blushing at this time. With a sullen face and tears hanging on one side: "Don't cry! You, why did you suddenly--"
"me……"
The scattered moonlight was slightly obscured by the faintly flashing clouds, and the face with pear blossoms and rain in Duan Qing's eyes became a bit blurred. However, the woman named Xue Ling Huan Bing pursed her lips and wiped it hard. Wiping his eyes, the whimper he was about to make was transformed into a trembling whimper by swallowing hard: "I like you."
"……ah?"
"I like you!"
The repeated voice became a little louder, and the tear-stained face of the white-haired woman who suddenly said this sentence was full of determination that was different from before: "I, Chu Lingbing, like you named Duan Qing."
"This is not a momentary impulse on my part, nor is it a carefully considered choice after I calm down. This is the emotion and realization I have experienced in my heart when I recall every bit of time with you in the middle of the night countless times." She no longer Breaking free from Duan Qing's hand, he slowly faced the body sitting on the edge of the cliff: "I have repeated this sentence countless times deep in my heart, and each time it only makes my affection stronger. It’s profound, and now I can’t bear it anymore, so I decided to speak out loud, because—because—”
"Because of Lou Yushang?" Different from the excited expression shown by Xue Ling Huan Bing at this time, Duan Qing sighed and shook his head: "Or is it because of... my state? Please, I was in the previous time I have already explained this matter to you. Before my problem is solved, I——"
"I don't care!" She interrupted Duan Qing's words loudly, and Xue Ling Huanbing's forced expression relaxed with her restrained tone: "I don't care, I trust my intuition."
"If I don't express my feelings again, I may never have another chance in the future."
The moon reappeared here as the clouds dispersed, clearly reflecting the faces of Xue Ling Huan Bing and Duan Qing sitting opposite each other under the soft white light, looking directly at them with teardrop eyes. The calmness that originally appeared on Duan Qing's face gradually turned into a bit of a wry smile, and finally he hid it all together with his lowering his head: "This, uh... I really didn't expect it, I haven't... yet No……"
"No, actually you have already been mentally prepared."
His hands, which were white from exertion, controlled Duan Qing to raise his head again, and the sweat in Xue Ling Huan Bing's hands seemed to be getting more and more: "Whether it's me, whispering, or your lovely and loyal one, Maid, even the first little girl and later Xiao Qian, you are actually ready to refuse, right?"
"Although I don't know what Xu Yu Liushang has been through, and how she let you slip through the fingers of a woman like her, I won't give you such a chance again." She pulled the other person's face and slowly approached, The eyes that were still pouring out tears were still staring straight into Duan Qing's eyes: "Chu Lingbing is not the kind of indecisive person. Even if I am shattered to pieces, I will not give up the determination I have already made."
"I like you."
She repeated this sentence for the third time, and then hugged Duan Qing's body and threw herself heavily to the ground. The falling rocks seemed to roll down the cliff because of this action, but they never stopped. Any echo appeared nearby. Standing in the dark shadow corner and silently watching all this, with her hands clasped in front of her, Anyu Ninglan then turned around and walked back in the direction of the tower from where she came. She also wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. There was a bit of excitement between the silent footsteps and the fast-moving body: "...Miss."
"...Yes, that's right, sir finally relaxed and accepted Miss Lingbing's love."
"..."
"...That's right, Ning Lan also thinks it's very powerful."
I don't know who she was talking to, but the maid player who disappeared into the darkness clenched her fists and made an encouraging gesture: "After waiting for so long, sir, I finally loosened the shackles in my heart. ——Miss Lingbing is really amazing!"
"Since Miss Lingbing succeeded, Ninglan should also have a chance to succeed! That should be like this, right?"
