The golden sunlight casts mottled light and shadow through the gaps between the leaves. Ye Zexi stood quietly on the spot, his expression as bright as ever.
However, after Mu Zhiqing heard the last words he said, she felt that his aura was suddenly filled with a layer of haze.
It was clearly still as bright and dazzling as the moonlight, but there seemed to be a layer of sadness that couldn't be dissipated.
"Little junior sister." Gu Zening called.
Mu Zhiqing came to her senses and walked quickly to Nangong Ling's side, "Fourth Princess, how are you?"
Previously, Nangong Ling was crushed by the Xuanqing Shock Beast, and then almost attacked. It was unknown whether the injury was serious.
At this moment, Nangong Ling only had eyes for Gu Zening, and she was extremely greedy for this embrace.
Over the years, he has been avoiding her, treating her as a ferocious beast. When she takes one step closer, he wishes he could take ten steps back.
Even though she always acted indifferent, there were many nights when she couldn't help crying silently when she thought of all this.
Sometimes, she also felt that her persistence was meaningless at all. Not only would she not make him like her, but on the contrary, she would find herself too annoying.
It's just that she can't bear it...
I can't bear to give up like this...
This is the man who has lived in her heart since before she understood the relationship between men and women.
Scenes from her childhood were deeply engraved in her mind, as if they had become a habit and something she couldn't let go of.
For three years, she has been relying on those memories for support, and she can't imagine what she will look like one day when all these memories are stripped away.
It wasn't until he appeared next to her that his broad chest, warm embrace, and even the caring voice ringing in her ears all made her lust for him.
However, she doesn't know if she will succeed one day if she keeps persisting
Gu Zening had no idea what Nangong Ling was thinking. She kept looking at him without speaking, but her eyes gradually became moist, and she couldn't help but become anxious.
"Ling'er, where are you injured? Does it hurt?"
When Nangong Xi saw that her fourth sister was about to cry, she became anxious.
On weekdays, the fourth sister is a complete tigress. Even if she is injured during practice, he has never seen the fourth sister shed tears.
Now the fourth sister is actually crying. How serious is the injury
"Fourth sister, where do you feel pain? Please tell us quickly."
Mu Zhiqing looked at the anxious expressions of the two men and said, "Let me take a look."
After seeing Mu Zhiqing appear, Nangong Ling calmed down a bit and reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Zhiqing, I'm fine."
Mu Zhiqing could tell from Nangong Ling's face that she was indeed injured, but the injury was not serious.
As a woman, she almost immediately thought of the reason why Nangong Ling would cry.
Sometimes, it's not because it hurts too much, but because the embrace is too warm.
From Nangong Xi's introduction, we can know that Nangong Ling has always been strong and can make a woman who always bleeds without crying cry. The only possibility is that the embrace is too warm, and the sudden tenderness makes her so moved that she wants to cry.
She was used to following the Fourth Senior Brother's mischief on weekdays, and she never paid much attention to the matters between the two of them.
Because the fourth princess also showed an indifferent look.
Until this moment, she suddenly understood the soft heart beneath the disguise of the fourth princess.
I have rejected so many marriage proposals, but I am waiting for only one person.
