Chapter 16: Mindset Transformation
When a woman falls in love with a man, no matter when, no matter what the reason, she will think about him, care about him, worry about him, just like at this moment, Li Ruoxi rushed to Wang Ke's face, and the concern in his eyes was overflowing. Even if Bai Ruochen once had a marriage contract with her, even if it was an old friend who the two had known each other for many years, even if Bai Ruochen was beaten by Wang Ke at this time, Li Ruoxi's footsteps were still rushing towards Wang Ke, and the concern in his eyes was also because of Wang Ke.
Warmth lingered in Wang Ke's whole heart, and Li Ruoxi's concerned eyes made him feel happy.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that his previous idea was wrong, why start a career first and then start a family? It's just, the beauty is in front, and he cares so much about himself, and his heart is not hard-hearted, how can he not be moved?
Suddenly he remembered a sentence: Behind every successful man, there is a woman who silently supports him.
couldn't help it, Wang Ke stretched out his hand and grabbed the hand where Li Ruoxi was holding his arm, with a smile in his eyes, and said softly: "I don't have anything to do, Bai Ruoxi's attack power is like a tickle for me, and it's not in the way." ”
Li Ruoxi's hanging heart slowly reassured, feeling the warmth transmitted from Wang Ke's hand, her pretty face was slightly red, the shame flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly turned her head to look at Bai Ruochen.
Wang Ke smiled slightly, at this time he felt that he didn't need to be bound by his previous thoughts, if Li Ruoxi really liked him, then why should he be too obsessed with his career and not succeed? There is a good saying that "the flowers can be broken and the branches must be broken, and there are no flowers and empty branches", after this village, there will be no store.
"Ruoxi, don't worry! I know the amount of force I use, if I hit with all my strength, maybe Bai Ruochen would have been killed by me, but half of the force, he could withstand it. ”
Li Ruoxi nodded slowly, smiled at Wang Ke, and said, "I know that you can win." ”
Wang Ke smiled and nodded, and after letting go of Li Ruoxi's hand, his hand patted Li Ruoxi's shoulder lightly, and then said, "Let's go over and have a look!" It stands to reason that he shouldn't have reacted like this, could it be that he had a secret wound on his body before? ”
Soon, the two came to Bai Ruochen's side.
Li Ruoxi looked at Bai Ruochen, who was pale and still had blood stains on her lips, and was about to ask how Bai Ruochen's injury was, but Wang Ke stopped her, shook her head and said softly: "No, don't bother him." ”
Li Ruoxi looked stunned and wondered, "What's wrong?" ”
Wang Ke glanced at Bai Ruochen deeply, then reached out and grabbed Li Ruoxi's hand, pulled her out of more than ten meters away, and then said with a smile: "Not only did he have nothing to do, but he seemed to have gained a lot of benefits, if I didn't guess wrong, he should have broken through the original cultivation realm now." ”
Li Ruoxi was surprised: "You mean, he was blessed by misfortune and made a breakthrough in his cultivation?" ”
Wang Ke nodded and said, "Just now I paid attention to the heaven and earth aura around him, it should be like this." ”
The aura of heaven and earth around Bai Ruochen was almost absorbed by Wang Ke at the beginning, but in a short period of time, a lot of aura of heaven and earth surged towards him in all directions, and the aura fluctuations were naturally noticed by Wang Ke.
"So what do we do now?" Li Ruoxi turned his head to look at Bai Ruochen, then raised his beautiful face and asked.
Wang Ke smiled and said, "Wait, protect the Fa for him and prevent others from disturbing him." ”
Li Ruoxi nodded, and was about to raise her wrist to look at the time, only to realize that her hand had been held by Wang Ke and had not let go, and suddenly, her heart jumped up as quickly as a deer.
"You...... Let go of my hand. ”
Li Ruoxi struggled for a while, but did not break free.
Wang Ke looked at Li Ruoxi, whose face showed a hint of shame, the corners of his mouth slightly outlined a curved arc, and a bold idea appeared in his mind.
If you like her, you will possess her, and let her belong to her, whether it is body or mind.
This thought just came to his mind, and a sentence blurted out:
"I want to kiss you."
As soon as the words came out, he immediately sensed that something was wrong, and the whole person was stunned.
Li Ruoxi was slightly stunned with a shy face, and Wang Ke's words made her feel that her brain was blank in an instant.
"You...... You scoundrel. ”
Five or six seconds later, Li Ruoxi came to his senses, and the shame on his stunning face was even stronger, and after a sigh of anger, he immediately shook off Wang Ke's hand, quickly turned his head, and ran out of the distance for more than ten meters, before he blushed shyly and stood up.
She didn't turn around, because she was afraid that Wang Ke would see her blushing face.
Wang Ke had an embarrassed look on his face, looking at Li Ruoxi's reaction, he unconsciously touched the bridge of his nose, and after coughing dryly, he hurriedly walked to the side under the big poplar tree, sat cross-legged, and closed his eyes, quickly running the true qi in the meridians in his body, calming down the slightly trembling heart.
A manly man, dare to love and hate, I just like it.
This was Wang Ke's last thought before he entered the cultivation.
Time passed quickly, and two hours had passed in the blink of an eye.
When Wang Ke opened his eyes, Bai Ruochen in the distance had already stood up from the ground. The body floated lightly, turned his head to look at Li Ruoxi who was sitting on a stone in a daze, Wang Ke walked quickly towards Bai Ruochen.
"How? Breakthrough in cultivation? Wang Ke said with a smile.
A look of gratitude appeared in Bai Ruochen's eyes, and he nodded and smiled: "That's right, I have broken through to the advanced realm of the day after tomorrow, Brother Wang Ke, thank you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid it would take at least three or five months for me to break through." ”
Wang Ke shook his head with a smile and said: "You don't have to thank me, this is your own opportunity, to be honest, I also feel that I am about to break through, and after the true qi in my body is absorbed to a certain level, I will be able to sprint to break through." ”
Bai Ruochen was stunned, and then said with a wry smile: "People are more popular than people, I can break through, I already feel very excited, but you have already reached the acquired realm, and you actually feel that you are going to break through again, amazing, really amazing!" I know a lot of people, and I've heard of a lot of martial arts geniuses, but none of them are more rebellious than you. ”
Wang Ke didn't take Bai Ruochen's admiration seriously, this world is so big, there are many geniuses, how can he dare to admit that he is the most rebellious?
Li Ruoxi, who was in the distance, found that after Wang Ke and Bai Ruochen woke up at the same time, the shyness was quickly suppressed by her in her heart, and her face showed a calm look, and after quickly coming to the two of them, she smiled and said, "Since you all woke up, should we leave?" I've been here for most of the afternoon, and I'm bored to death. ”
Wang Ke and Bai Ruochen looked at each other and smiled, then nodded at the same time.
After returning to the antique trading market the same way, the three of them did not alarm anyone, however, Bai Ruochen was not in a hurry to return to Fuxuan Hall, and Wang Ke and Li Ruoxi had the charm between them, and they did not say anything to go back.
"I'll never wear this dress again, in order to change my body shape, in order not to let you recognize me, I tried my best, and the result was all in vain." Bai Ruochen watched Li Ruoxi walk to the stall not far away, and then said to Wang Ke who was standing beside him with a wry smile.
Wang Ke smiled: "You are in good shape now!" Although it looks a little bloated, it doesn't get in the way at all when it comes to fighting, this is a good baby to hide your identity! ”
Bai Ruochen shook his head with a wry smile, and after a flash of hesitation on his face, he reached out and grabbed Wang Ke's arm, quickly moving away from Li Ruoxi, and then said in a low voice: "Brother Wang Ke, I have one thing, I want to ask you personally, how do you feel about Li Ruoxi?" ”
Wang Ke looked at Bai Ruochen's serious face, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Li Ruoxi is very beautiful, and very smart, she can go to the hall and the kitchen, such an excellent girl, I like her." ”
Bai Ruochen nodded with a smile and said in a low voice: "Originally, this matter had nothing to do with me, but the two of us are friends now, so I have to remind you that if you want to be with Li Ruoxi, you have to face a lot of problems." ”
Wang Ke raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the problem?" ”
Bai Ruochen said in a low voice: "Although Li Ruoxi is being forced by their family very miserably, I dare to guarantee that she still can't let go of the Li family in her heart." Moreover, Li Ruoxi is very good, you have also seen this, and the elders of their Li family naturally know the Tao, so it is impossible for them to give up Li Ruoxi, even if the marriage contract between her and the bastard of the Gu family is canceled, if you want to get Li Ruoxi, I am afraid it will be even more difficult. First of all, you must have strong martial arts strength, in case the people of the Li family kill you in order to stop you, on the other hand, although the Li family is quite strong in martial arts, but their family values business strength more, so if you want to marry Li Ruoxi, you must meet two points, first, strong personal strength, and second, have a huge commercial power and enough wealth. ”
Wang Ke's eyes narrowed slightly, and the essence of light flashed in his eyes.
He understood that what Bai Ruochen said was very correct, judging from the previous attitude towards Li Ruoxi towards the Li family, their Li family is a family that pays attention to interests, if he wants to marry Li Ruoxi, he must have enough interests to impress them and make them agree with the relationship between the two.
Suddenly, Wang Ke's heart was shocked, an intriguing look appeared in his eyes, he looked up at Bai Ruochen and asked, "Bai Ruochen, since we are all friends, it seems that I know too little about my friend!" How do I think, you and Ruoxi have known each other before? ”
Bai Ruochen didn't hide it, and said directly: "Yes, Li Ruoxi and I have known each other many years ago, and some things have happened between the two of us. ”
"You guys?"
Wang Ke's brows furrowed slightly.
Bai Ruochen hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't get me wrong, in fact, there is nothing between us, it's just that my father and Li Ruoxi's father were good brothers when they were young, so when the two of us were not born, they were married by both parties." However, when we grew up, we didn't agree to this matter, so this marriage contract has been canceled, otherwise how could his Li family marry Li Ruoxi to that bastard of the Gu family again? ”
Wang Ke suddenly realized, no wonder he felt that there was no sense of alienation between Li Ruoxi and Bai Ruochen.
Stretching out his hand to put his arm around Bai Ruochen's shoulder, Wang Ke said with a smile: "Can you tell me about the situation of your family?" Since I'm going to have something happen with Ruoxi, I'm afraid there will be some unpleasant things with some families, as the saying goes: know each other and know yourself, and win all battles. For useful information, I can only get it from your mouth. As a friend, you can't fail to tell me, do you? ”
