Longji City has entered the highest security level, and everyone in the city has a look of solemnity and worry on their faces.
However, out of trust in the city lord, they all calmed down and waited for the upcoming violent attack.
On the contrary, everyone in Haixiang Tower was very calm.
They should be eating and drinking, and there was no sign of a war coming. Everything seemed to be normal.
Knock knock!
As soon as Luo Qingyi returned to the room, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
The door was pushed open!
Lotus walked in nervously.
"Is something wrong?" Luo Qingyi frowned and looked at her with confusion.
He was very surprised. Why did Lianhua come to her room instead of joining the others
"Qingyi, can I talk to you?" Lianhua bit her red lips, her eyes red, "I know it's inappropriate to ask you now. But, you are the only one I can ask for."
Luo Qingyi pondered for a while, then stood up and pulled out a stool, "Sit down."
"Thank you." Lianhua's eyes lit up and she looked at Luo Qingyi with excitement, "Among so many people, you are really the most considerate and gentle."
"Oh, I just did what I thought I should do."
With that said, Luo Qingyi picked up a teapot, poured a glass of water for Lotus, and sent it over.
Lianhua took the glass of water and touched the back of Luo Qingyi's hand seemingly inadvertently.
Luo Qingyi frowned, and without thinking much, said directly: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Do you know about the dungeon?"
"I heard them say something, but I don't know the details."
Lianhua took a sip of tea and seemed to think of something wronged. Tears kept rolling in her eyes, "At that time, a group of us were taken to the dungeon by the city guards. I was panicked and at a loss! Later, I did it on impulse. It was a wrong decision.”
"They all hate me because of this."
"I really didn't mean it. I was really confused and helpless at the time!"
"But, I apologized later, why didn't they forgive me?"
"I believe that they felt the same as you in the dungeon. But why did you make the opposite decision to others? Should you reflect on it yourself?" Luo Qingyi frowned, roughly knowing what was going on, and then He said in a deep voice: "We are all adults and it's time to take responsibility for our own choices!"
"Qingyi, do you think I shouldn't be forgiven?" Lianhua raised a pair of tearful eyes and looked at Luo Qingyi pitifully.
"I think that as long as you acknowledge your mistakes and repent sincerely, they will definitely forgive you." Luo Qingyi stood up and made a plea, "The person you should be looking for now is them, not me!"
"Qingyi!?" Lianhua was anxious, grabbed Luo Qingyi's hand, and said tremblingly: "Do you dislike me?"
Luo Qingyi glanced at the grabbed hand and tried to break free, but Lianhua's grip was too tight. If he tried to break free, he would probably hurt her.
No matter what, they were both members of the Holy Academy, and he didn't want to go too far and embarrass each other.
"Qingyi, actually... I like you." Lianhua gritted her teeth and said shyly: "For you, I will do anything. So, please don't reject me!"
"Lianhua, your mood is a bit chaotic now. Please go back and calm down!" Luo Qingyi's eyes turned cold. Even if he has a good temper, it doesn't mean that he can let others take advantage of him.
"Qingyi!"
"If you see someone, don't get out!"
At this moment, Chen Mu walked in with an angry tone, raised his hand and slapped Lianhua.
