"But where can I find her?" Qin Dong understood the two people's intentions and did not refuse.
Xiao Zhengtong said, "When Mei'er is in a bad mood, she will only go to one place. The moat embankment in the north of the imperial city. If you go there, you will definitely find her."
The imperial city of the Feitian Empire is really beautiful. Its various layouts can be seen to have been carefully planned at a glance. The imperial city's moat took a lot of thought.
The moat is twenty feet wide and five feet deep. It is connected to several surrounding rivers that pass through the imperial city and never runs dry all year round. Every day the blue waves are rippling and fish are jumping among them. There are rows of willows planted on the embankment of the moat, which sway gently in the wind, which is full of poetry and painting. [
The north bank of the moat is particularly beautiful. Not only willow trees are planted on the river embankment, but also patches of peach groves. In this season, the pink peach blossoms are blooming, adding an indescribable beauty to the whole world.
Xiao Mei hugged her knees and leaned against the trunk of a peach tree, looking up at the densely packed pink above her head. However, her mood was not as gorgeous as the blooming peach blossoms. Instead, she became even more melancholy.
"From now on, I am a child without a father and a mother. No one will love me, love me, and protect me like they do..." The breeze blew through Xiao Mei's hair, blowing her heart-breaking smile. The low sobs spread. Xiao Mei under the peach blossom tree is so sad that it makes people cry.
Suddenly, several peach blossoms fell from the peach blossom tree. Before Xiao Mei could wake up, more peach blossoms fell down, like a rain of flowers, wrapping Xiao Mei in it.
Now is the season when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. There is no reason for them to wither. Xiao Mei temporarily forgot about her sadness and stood up full of confusion.
Just when Xiao Mei was filled with confusion, the peach blossoms were getting worse and worse. A gust of breeze blew by, as if joining in the fun, and rolled up the peach blossoms that had fallen on the ground again. For a moment, countless peach blossom petals danced in the wind, and the elegant fragrance spread everywhere, rendering the whole world into a sea of peach blossoms. .
The air is filled with the fragrance of flowers and a romantic atmosphere. Xiao Mei was in it and temporarily forgot her sadness.
"Look, even these peach blossoms can feel your sadness and wither early." Qin Dong's clear and clear voice, which also contained infinite tenderness, slowly sounded.
Xiao Mei's heart seemed to be caressed by a pair of invisible hands, surging with unspeakable comfort and joy. Turning his head and looking in the direction where the sound came from, Qin Dong stood there with a smile on his face, also in a sea of flowers.
Qin Dong was already extremely handsome, but now his eyes were affectionate and he had a gentle smile on his face. Xiao Mei's heart couldn't help but beat wildly. Thinking again of Qin Dong pretending to be a god, clearing her grievances in front of the fooled people, and trying his best to defend her, the previous bad impression of Qin Dong disappeared immediately.
"Don't be sad anymore, otherwise, all the peach blossoms in this tree will fall for you alone." Qin Dong wanted to step forward and gently wipe away all the tears from Xiao Mei's eyes. I finally restrained myself.
Xiao Mei wiped her tears and said, "Is this all your fault? Such beautiful peach blossoms grow on trees, but you want them to wither early. It's really abominable." Although he said this, no one could You can also hear the joy in her words.
"Ah? You don't like it, that's easy." Qin Dong smiled slightly, waved his hands, and a stream of green light covered the peach tree that was about to wither with only dead branches.
Xiao Mei was wondering what Qin Dong was going to do. Suddenly, she was pleasantly surprised to find that new peach blossoms suddenly appeared on the dead branches. Then it expanded little by little, and finally bloomed slowly. In just a short period of time, another tree bloomed with flowers on the dead branches.
"You..." Xiao Mei was surprised and happy, and even more incredible. She looked at Qin Dong in shock and asked, "Are you a human or a god?"
Qin Dong smiled slightly and said lightly, "I am whatever you say I am."
Qin Dong's words made Xiao Mei's cheeks flush with blush. She lowered her head and scolded softly, "You men don't have any good things. You just like to lie to girls with sweet words."
"Some men may be what you said, but I am definitely not. Seeing you sad and crying makes me really heartbroken!" Qin Dong's heart is extremely sincere, and his words are naturally very touching.
Xiao Mei lowered her head and remained silent. The blush on her face became more and more obvious, betraying her heart. [
"I'm sorry." Xiao Mei suddenly whispered.
"What?" Qin Dong looked confused.
Xiao Mei said faintly, "Before, I thought you were ignorant, arrogant and ignorant, and I looked down upon you in my heart. But now I find that I was wrong. You are really capable. It's not arrogance, it's just my blindness." ”
"Hahaha... Are you praising me? If so, please don't praise me again in the future, because it will make me proud and complacent, even to the point of going crazy."
"Can you do it?" Xiao Mei suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Qin Dong seriously, slowly shook her head and said, "You can't. You are smarter than anyone I have ever seen. Grandpa Hong is right, You are an expert who hides your secrets."
Qin Dong touched his nose and said with a wry smile, "Maybe your Grandpa Hong thinks too highly of me. Okay, it's getting late and a little cold, let's go home."
"Go home?" Xiao Mei's face showed a deep sadness, and she murmured, "Can I still go back? That home without my parents is no longer a home. I don’t want to go back and be sad.”
Qin Dong shook his head and said, "Home is always home, always home! You are very lucky to have a family. Think about how many people in this world spend their whole lives just to have a home, but they don't get it... "
When Qin Dong said these words, his expression was full of melancholy, which made Xiao Mei feel a pain in her heart. Only then did she realize that maybe Qin Dong was full of sadness like her, but he was more sad than her. She is strong and never talks about it. This will definitely make him very hard, but it will also make him more attractive to many men.
"Is it painful for my parents... to leave?" Xiao Mei's voice trembled slightly. She wanted to ask this question, but she didn't dare to ask it.
"Painful?" Qin Dong laughed and said, "Maybe they were in pain before, but they are no longer in pain."
"Yes, Grandpa Hong told me that death is a kind of relief for them. Rather than living in pain, maybe it is better to die peacefully." Xiao Mei was about to cry again.
Qin Dong couldn't help but smile and came forward to hold her catkins. Xiao Mei's hand was not big, but it was very warm. Holding it in her hand, Qin Dong could clearly feel the slightest warmth in his heart.
