Chapter 123: The Real Murderer (1st Update)
Your Highness would be better to say something practical. β
Chu Liuyue held the scabbard and tried to push him away with a little force.
Rong Xiu frowned slightly, but did not retreat, but stepped forward an inch.
The two of them are already very close, so they breathe and smell each other.
He showed everything he had in front of her in this way, as if he didn't care about anything else.
The deep eyes reflected Chu Liuyue's figure.
Chu Liuyue was in a trance for a moment, seemingly... Even if she was holding a sharp blade in her hand now, he would still lean over without hesitation.
After this stunned, there was a momentary delay in the action.
There seemed to be a dark light flashing under Rong Jin's eyes, and the thin lips were gently raised, which was an ambiguous arc.
A light sigh that seemed to be absent fell on Chu Liuyue's ears:
β... The real murderer. β
In the quiet and dark night, such a sigh seemed to be a spring breeze messing with the strings, leaving an echo in Chu Liuyue's heart, and he didn't go for a long time.
Her heart beat uncontrollably, as if something cunning had tore a hole in the stiff and cold wall of her heart, and drilled into it.
She almost subconsciously took a step back, avoiding Rong Xiu's eyes.
"Your Highness's noble status, as long as you beckon, there will be countless gentle and virtuous women who will come forward to succeed you. I, Chu Liuyue, am fierce and ruthless, cold-hearted and cold-hearted, why should Your Highness waste time on me. β
Rong Xiu looked at her, something seemed to be surging in his eyes, and finally turned into a light smile.
"But this king can't see them in his eyes, he can only see you, what can he do?"
Chu Liuyue's heart moved, and she couldn't help but look at him again.
The cold moonlight flowed in, Rong Xiu's face was half bright and half dark, and his brows were frowning, as if he was very distressed.
However, the corners of the eyes and eyebrows are a little indulgent and spoiled.
Such straightforward words that almost poured out their love made Chu Liuyue not know how to answer for a while.
Both of them fell silent, leaving only an ambiguous air flow brewing between them, as if even the late summer wind had become gentle.
It's not that Chu Liuyue hasn't heard the words of confession.
In her previous life, she had a noble status, superb strength, not to mention her appearance, and I don't know how many teenagers admired her.
It stands to reason that when she encounters such a scene again, she shouldn't feel anything.
But Rong Xiu's words seemed to have an inexplicable power, which could always easily stir her mind.
Chu Liuyue lowered her eyes.
Not to mention that Rong Xiu rescued him several times, just talking about the peach blossom hairpin on his birthday, and today's delicate and small dagger, there is no place without care.
The things he did for her, if he were any woman, he was afraid that he would be moved by it.
To say that she doesn't feel anything is an absolute lie.
However, she has experienced the most unforgettable betrayal in the world, and now she can no longer easily deliver all her trust.
In the face of these good things that Rong Xiu gave, her first reaction was not to accept it happily, but to want to escape.
When Rong Xiu approached her, there was a faint trace of fear in her heart.
That fear comes from the pain that cannot be forgotten in the depths of memory!
And these, she couldn't talk to Rong Xiu.
What's more, after being reborn, the most important thing for her is revenge!
If he is too close to Rong Xiu, then he will inevitably be implicated in this.
This is also unfair to Rong Xiu.
Countless thoughts flashed in her heart, but in a moment, Chu Liuyue raised her eyes to look at Rong Xiu again.
Her expression was calm, her eyes were clear, and the corners of her mouth were curved:
"Your Highness is really good at laughing. β
Her cold voice shattered the original ambiguous aura.
Rong Xiu looked at her steadily.
Both of them are smart people, and some things don't need to be picked out, they already understand each other's meaning.
Chu Liuyue waited for Rong Xiu to turn around and leave.
Any man who has done so much for a woman and is still rejected, probably won't continue, right?
What's more, Rong Xiu's identity is so noble.
However, unexpectedly, there was no trace of annoyance between Rong Xiu's eyebrows and eyes, as if he didn't care about Chu Liuyue's words.
Then he reached out and grasped the scabbard against his chest.
"Just say, do you like this gift?"
Chu Liuyue was stunned for a moment.
But seeing that Rong Xiu insisted, she had no choice but to nod:
"Something from His Highness is always good. β
"It's good to like it. β
Rong Xiu chuckled, then suddenly reached out and pinched her cheek.
"When this king forged this thing, it took a lot of thought. Today you have to rest with this king as a thanksgiving. β
Chu Liuyue was taken aback.
"Is thisβdid you do it yourself?"
Because she was too surprised, she didn't have time to bother Rong Xiu to pinch her face.
Looking at the rare stunned appearance of the girl in front of him, Rong Xiu finally felt better, turned around and walked upstairs.
"This king is very tired today, and I will tell you tomorrow. β
Chu Liuyue sneered lightly in her heart.
Do you want to talk about this kind of thing tomorrow?
"Your Highness, you are willing to speak tomorrow, but I'm afraid I won't have a chance to listen. β
Rong Xiu paused and looked back at her.
Chu Liuyue also walked forward, and when she reached his side, she paused, and her chin raised slightly:
"Tomorrow the academy will leave for the Ten Thousand Souls Mountains, and we have to leave early in the morning. So, tell yourself!"
After speaking, Chu Liuyue didn't look at Rong Xiu's expression, raised his feet upstairs, entered his room, and directly locked the door.
Hearing the sound of locking, Rong Xiu reacted, looking at the closed door, his eyebrows raised slightly.
For a moment, he couldn't help but laugh.
It's really as calculating as ever, and he refuses to lose half a point.
At this moment, Xue Xue, who had been trying to reduce her sense of presence beside her, suddenly jumped up from the first floor and jumped in front of the door of Chu Liuyue's room on the second floor, scratching her claws on the door.
No!
Its claws were so sharp, and when they went down, they left a few neat scratches directly on the door.
Seeing Xue Xue like this, Rong Xiu suddenly felt undignified.
It's also a high-level magical beast, how can you be so uncalm when you encounter something, and how embarrassing it is to scratch around?
"Xuexue, what are you doing?"
Rong Xiu asked in a suppressed voice.
Xue Xue glanced back at him, her eyes full of grievances and unwillingness.
Why else could you go to the Ten Thousand Souls Mountains? To hunt demonic beasts, of course!
Didn't Chu Liuyue like it, why did she go outside to find other wild dogsβno, wild beasts!?
So where to put it!?
This is absolutely not possible!
Xue Xue couldn't take care of Rong Xiu anymore, and turned around and began to grab the door.
However, with this look, Rong Xiu immediately understood.
Wait a minute!
At this time of year, Tianlu Academy will indeed lead students to the Wanling Mountain Range for training.
If memory serves, they seem... Do you want to act as a team?
So, who is she on the same team with?
Rong Xiu's calm expression finally showed a crack.
Chu Liuyue had just entered Tianlu Academy, and he didn't know many people, and the most familiar ones should be the dozens of people who were also Xuan Masters.
If she formed a team, she should be with these people.
