Chapter 9: Two Couples of Man and Woman
"I'm sorry."
When Gu Yiguan hesitated, his expression was complicated. Mo Momo was ready to be rejected, but he didn't expect the last thing to happen. Just three simple words, although not a direct rejection, but the meaning of rejection is full.
Mo Momo was stunned for a long time, until the light curtain faded, and those starlight fireflies danced directionlessly in the air.
"Oh, it's fine." Mo Momo's face was calm, and he forced a smile. Since Gu Yiguan had already refused, he had no intention of continuing to entangle.
"I'm sorry." Gu Yiwan muttered a sentence.
"It's okay, it's okay. I was just saying it casually, you just think it's a joke. Mo Momo said.
"I'm sorry." What Gu Yiguan wanted to say, he didn't know where to start. She thought about it a lot, considered the decision of whether to agree or not, and finally gathered three words with great difficulty before she spoke. The rest of the words were clogged in his chest, suppressing himself and unable to confide in.
Gu Yiguan likes the elder brother and has liked it since he was a child.
Back then, the young man in the Sword Pavilion was full of spirit, defeated all his opponents and won the first place in the Sword Pavilion disciple competition. He proudly proclaimed his glory to everyone, never knowing that there was a little girl staring at him silently in the crowd of people. No one knows that the heroic figure has always lived in the heart of that little girl ever since, and it has never been erased after many years of polishing. Maybe the little girl was just one of the countless people who were obsessed with teenagers at that time, but the figure of the teenager was always like a beacon and a long-term spiritual sustenance for the girl.
Today, the little girl has gradually faded away from the immaturity of the year and slowly grew into a young girl in the prime of her life. That glorious and proud figure has always been entrenched in her heart, although the distance is still far away, and there are not many opportunities to meet, her heart has always been concerned about him.
The appearance of Mo Momo diluted the profundity of that figure in Gu Yiguan's heart. But after all, they didn't get along for a long time, even if the words that Mo Momo had spoken with her in this short period of time had exceeded the sum of the seven years between her and the senior brother, that proud him was still a hero in the girl's heart, and he had not been replaced.
"It's getting late, I'll send you back. Today's thing, when it didn't happen. We're still friends. "Mo Momo is very open-minded, since the relationship can't be further developed, then maintain the status quo, it's good.
Mo Momo's feelings for Gu Yiguan were not very deep, and even the initial good impression was because Gu Yiguan was like another person, and only when he slowly got in touch did he know that she was not her, nor was she like her. 's liking for Gu Yiguan has just begun, and Mo Momo feels that his confession seems to be a little earlier now, because he is too abrupt. So I wasn't disappointed either.
Being rejected is not so monotonous.
"Hmm." Gu Yiguan nodded slightly, agreeing to Mo Momo's idea of sending her back.
There was no word all the way, and now the two of them don't know what to say, maybe after a night will make the two people with different hearts think more clearly.
After Gu Yiguan went back, he didn't fulfill the previous agreement to go to Luoqingxi's room, and lay on the bed in a daze, thinking about whether his decision was right or wrong. Is the status of the senior brother really so high in his heart?
Luo Qingxi didn't care about Gu Yiguan's not coming, and didn't take the initiative to go to Gu Yiguan's room to find it, sitting on the stool silently thinking about himself.
After Mo Momo went back, he saw that Gu Leyang had returned, and the depression in his heart was suddenly dissipated by the joy of seeing Gu Leyang well.
"You kid, you came back to life so quickly, it's really more vigorous than a cockroach!" Mo Momo happily gave Gu Leyang a bear hug.
"Tell Ben Shao how you recovered? And what was going on before? Be honest. "Although Mo Momo knew that the Sword Pavilion had the ability to heal Gu Leyang's injuries, he was not clear about the specific details.
"That's the case" Gu Leyang used his lame description skills to start with Jietianfeng, and then talked about the injury, and then talked about the recovery, as well as the matter of life experience and engraved jade slips. There is indeed no mention of the matter of the Creation Pond and Luoqing Creek. Because this is really not a glorious thing, the introverted Gu Leyang is ashamed to say it.
"Haha, it turns out that you have such a background, it seems that our previous guesses were wrong." Mo Momo was surprised, although it was unbelievable, he still believed what Gu Leyang said.
"Hey, hey." Gu Leyang grinned, "Brother Mo has to keep this secret." ”
"Of course, your identity is too important to the Sword Pavilion, if I say it, I'm afraid I will be killed on the spot by the Pavilion Master Elders." is not only in a personal relationship, but also considering the overall situation, Mo Momo has no reason to say it.
"I believe Big Brother." Gu Leyang said very firmly.
"Anyway, you've engraved so many spiritual techniques for the Sword Pavilion, so you don't plan to give Ben Shao and me a few spiritual techniques to take a look?"
Gu Leyang hesitated and said, "I have already spent a lot of energy, and it is not good to show it now." Otherwise, tomorrow, I'll have a night's rest and I'll be able to recuperate. ”
"Haha, this is not in a hurry. The most important thing is for you to take care of your body. Mo Momo said, "By the way, on the day you went to pick up Tianfeng, it rained, right?" ”
"Yes." How could Gu Leyang not remember that he witnessed his senior sister's wet appearance that day.
"Guess who I saw?" Mo Momo asked with a smile, quite smug between his eyebrows.
"Who?"
"Your dream girl, Xu Xiangyuan." Mo Momo talked eloquently, "It suddenly rained heavily that day, I passed by near the square, and happened to see Xu Xiangyuan in the rain, without an umbrella, and then I ran to hold an umbrella for her in your name, and then praised you and told her about your infatuation with her." ”
"How? Isn't my big brother doing a great job? Mo Momo said proudly, "Do you kid want to thank me?" ”
"Huh?" Gu Leyang was stunned, this should have been a good thing, but it seems to have become a bad thing now, right?
Mo Momo said: "With your identity and talent, it is more than enough to match Xu Xiangyuan." If you can do this in the future, you must thank me. I'm your matchmaker. ”
Gu Leyang wanted to say that you were self-defeating, big brother, but he didn't say it, he only smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you, Brother Mo, for your kindness."
Gu Leyang had the urge to tell him about himself and Luo Qingxi, but seeing that Mo Momo was now proud, he couldn't help but say nothing.
"I'm a little tired, I'll go to bed first." Gu Leyang, who had suppressed the fatigue for a long time, struck again, Gu Leyang shook his head and said.
"Well, I'm going to sleep too. Go to bed early and wake up early, it's good to be in good health! ”
As the night deepened, people were quiet.
The stars are rising and a new day is coming.
The disciples of the Sword Pavilion had already started their morning training in the square, and a man covered in blood climbed the more than 10,000 stone steps of the Sword Pavilion and climbed to the outside of the mountain gate with difficulty.
"Help, help" Maybe the long journey has exhausted all the strength, or maybe the injuries on the body can no longer be suppressed, and before the man can finish speaking, the voice stopped abruptly and his body fell.
(The best part is finally about to begin.) )
