Chapter Seventy-Four: She Doesn't Love

"Why?" Xiu asked a little anxiously, his tone full of incomprehension. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Why did you give up all of a sudden?" Obviously, it's just a little bit close, and you can succeed! ”

He was very dissatisfied, and asked Xia Shuying loudly, "Don't you like him?" Haven't we been working together for four years? Why? Why did you give up all of a sudden? So, what have we been doing in the past four years? ”

In the face of Xiu's questioning, Xia Shuying was indifferent. She sat in the private room of the best restaurant in the city, ignoring the steaming food in front of her, and turned her eyes to look out the window. It was the height of summer when cicadas were singing, and the sun was shining for nine days.

"Miss Xia, what do you mean by that?" In front of her, sat a handsome man. His original paper fan shook gently, and there was a charming smile on the corner of his mouth, showing his calmness. Now he couldn't help but stop the movements in his hand, restrained his smile, lowered his tone coldly, and quietly looked at Xia Shuying in front of him.

"It's not interesting." Xia Shuying didn't look back, she spoke indifferently, her eyes still staring at the scenery outside the window, she didn't make any waves for his questioning, and she didn't respond to Xiu's questioning. She just stared silently at the Lihu that she could see through this window, as if all the madness that had ever existed did not exist.

"Hmph, what is this? Playing with my feelings? The handsome man slammed his fist on the table, shaking the wine in his glass to the point that it overflowed. He breathed heavily, and his eyes became sharp, and he no longer lived up to his previous calmness.

"No, I'm not playing with your feelings...... I just suddenly realized that I was tired. Saying this, Xia Shuying finally withdrew her gaze from the scenery of Lihu, raised her eyes, stared at the handsome man in front of her, and shook her head gently, "I have been chasing you for four years, trying my best and using all means to transform myself little by little and become the kind of posture you like." ”

"I thought it was love." As she spoke, she raised her hand, grabbed a jade hairpin inserted in her temples, and gently pulled it out. "Maybe for some, it's really love. However, this kind of love is too tiring. ”

She took the hosta and placed it on the window edge, then raised her hand to get another one. "Just like these jewelry and makeup that I spent a whole hour wearing before I came to see you, it is extremely complicated and tiring."

She took off another slightly smaller golden hairpin, placed it next to the hosta, and whispered, "This kind of love is not for me." She said this, but she put down the hair coiled on the top of her head, and then took off the jade beads worn on it along the strands of hair, "So, for me, all the efforts in the past four years, everything I have done for you in the past four years, is actually not love." ”

It was time-consuming to put those beads on one by one, but it was very easy to take them off, and she took them one by one, and put them together with the two hairpins she had just put down. "That is, I ...... I don't love you. I just mistakenly thought I loved you. And during that time, I mistakenly thought I was in love with you, and I chased you frantically...... From start to finish, it was just a misunderstanding. She silently concluded, "It's just a misunderstanding, it's not about love." So, it's not a toy. ”

She took the beads one by one, and the expression on her face was calm and serene. This made the breathing of the handsome man sitting across from her slowly soothe down. He lowered his eyes and closed the folding fan little by little, "But, I find that I have fallen in love with you." He put away the folding fan, and then raised his eyes, "I have to say, it is everything you have done over the years that has touched my heart little by little." Gradually, I found that I couldn't live without you. ”

"Even so, even if you tell me now that you're in love with me...... All I can say is, I'm sorry. Xia Shuying took off the last bead, and then reached out to untie the silk ribbon that bound a green silk, allowing the somewhat curly hair to return to nature.

"I've come to understand that there is no way to force this kind of thing. Forced to the end, you get nothing. I will only feel tired, and I will only feel that I will never get results. She took out a silk handkerchief, moistened it with the water from the kettle on the table, and then covered her face, wiping off the rouge gouache that covered it little by little, and returning herself to her original appearance.

"So, goodbye." She put down the silk silk and stood up, about to turn and leave. But the man sitting across from her suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.

"Goodbye?" He repeated the last two words in a low voice, but he was a little stunned. "Love this kind of thing, there is no way to force it?" He slowly got up, staring at her with her back to him. "You have made me fall in love with you little by little in four years, and now when you are about to turn away, you leave me with such a sentence?"

"How is that possible?" He gritted his teeth and said, "How could I possibly believe such words? He stared at her back, vowing his own, "I'm not going to accept this outcome." ”

"If you feel that the chase in the past four years has been too tiring, if you feel that you have been the only one who has been giving all these years, if you feel that you can't see my heart...... Well, I'll let you see my attitude. I will show you how much I love you! ”

He let go of his hand and let her go. "I'll find you, no matter where you go." He stood in the private room, and she pushed open the door and stood in the hallway. "In the first four years, you tried everything to make me fall in love with you little by little, which made you suffer too much, I understand......"

"So, please wait." His tone was flat, but the determination that permeated it could be heard by anyone. "I'm going to take as long as you feel to show my determination, and I'm going to make you fall in love with me, and maybe more time than you. But I don't care. I just want you to fall in love with me......"

Xia Shuying's footsteps froze above the stairs, she silently raised her head, glanced at the carved beams and paintings above her head, and then fell down the footsteps that were stagnant in mid-air, stepped on the wooden stairs, and walked down the stairs in the eyes of groups of guests.

"It's useless," she whispered, "because ...... I don't love you. Her eyes were rolling with a deep hue that he could not see behind her, nor could he see under her eyes, nor could the guests of all kinds. None of them know, and none of them will understand......

"I ...... I...... I'm ......" She descended the stairs step by step, finally stepping on the stone floor of the bottom floor, and then slowly walked away. She said this, as if she wanted to say something, but there was no follow-up.

……

The wind swept and wrapped the corners of her coat at the top of the tallest tower in the city. She changed out of her fancy outfit and put it back on her old clothes. Apart from the other colors, only the darkness seems to blend into the night. That's her own color.

She's a killer, and she shouldn't belong to the light.

"Hey~ really just gave up?" Xiu, who was staying in her eyes, whispered, and his tone was full of unwillingness. "Do you really not love him?" He turned his head and asked Xia Shuying so solemnly.

"I don't love it." Xia Shuying responded succinctly, looking at the roof of the Qinglou where he liked to stand on the most before meeting him. Fingertips tapped lightly on the mud seal of the wine jar placed beside him, and lifted it little by little, allowing the aroma of the wine to disperse with the wind.

She lifted the jar and poured the elixir-like liquor, letting it go with fire into her throat, burning and outlining all the way.

"Really...... Don't love? In the face of her performance, Mr. Xiu felt that her previous answer was not reliable, so he spoke up and asked again.

"I don't love it." She still answered with these two words, and she never changed her answer. This silenced Xiu. After a long time, Xiu shook his head and said in a low voice, "If you don't love it, you won't love it...... In that case, forget about him and start over. ”

"It's just that the rest of the time ...... I don't know if it's enough. He muttered in a low voice, thinking she wouldn't hear, but she stopped drinking and asked in a low voice, "When?" What time? ”

"......" Xiu, who realized that he had slipped his mouth, was silent for a while, trying to confuse the past, but after being silent for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and explained to her. In fact...... There is a limit to how much time I can spend with you. ”

"I can't stay in the world for a long time, and I'm destined to never be able to lead the marriage for you all the time." He knitted hard, trying to convince her. "Because, if a little immortal like me stays in the world all the time, it is very likely that he will be infected by the red dust qi and will not be able to return to the Nine Heavens. Therefore, when Yue Lao sent me down, he actually made a rotation rule. I do not know...... How long will it be before I leave and come with someone else. ”

"But, I ...... I want to tie your marriage and tie your red thread before I leave. Such...... I don't have any regrets. He lowered his eyes, pondering and speaking cautiously. He knew that he could not make such a low-level mistake. But I still committed it. In other words, the city ...... Are you about to wake up? At the thought of this, he felt a heavy pressure.

In fact, his words are not much different from the real thing, but he hides the unspeakable truth, hides all the unspeakable consequences, and only speaks to her.

“…… Is that so? She was silent for a moment, and after spitting out these three words, she hugged the jar and poured the spicy liquor into her mouth. Her eyes reflected the stars in the sky, and they seemed so deep that they couldn't see it clearly, like her mind.
