After she finished speaking, she stopped looking at Yue Ming and walked through the corridor to her room.

Suddenly, there was thunder outside, and countless raindrops fell from the sky, like tears that could never be wiped away.

Yue Ming stood still, motionless.

After a long time, his body suddenly trembled uncontrollably......

He cried.

An Lengyao didn't know what happened to Yue Ming, he was released from prison, and when he walked to the door, he saw Yue Ming standing alone in the rain from a distance, the lightning in the sky reflected his face flickering, and the rain soaked his clothes.

"Demon King, why are you raining?" Seeing this, the soldiers guarding hurriedly picked up an umbrella and wanted to give it to Yue Ming.

"I'll come." An Lengyao took the umbrella and walked towards Yue Ming despite his still weak body.

When he walked to Yue Ming's side, he found that he was covered in rain, and water droplets were dripping down his thin face, but Yue Ming was unaware.

"Hades, what's wrong with you?" An Lengyao hurriedly shrouded Yue Ying under the umbrella.

"I'm fine." Yue Ming replied softly, but his voice sounded so weak.

An Lengyao has been friends with Yue Ming for many years, and he knows Yue Ming's temperament best. This teenager looks cynical on weekdays, but this is just a means for him to cover up his heart. An Lengyao rarely saw Yue Ming look as depressed as today, but except in the days not long after Yue Xuan left, one night, the two of them talked about their father, and when Yue Ming talked about emotion, he couldn't help but look gloomy and full of sadness.

An Lengyao knew that something must have happened to Yue Ming. But since Yue Ming didn't want to say more now, he was no longer reluctant, just standing to the side, holding the umbrella in his hand.

Yue Ming didn't know how long it took, but his mind kept thinking of his mother's tearful face and her eyes. This time, he thought, he was really wrong. Even if he wanted her to stop being embarrassed and cold, he shouldn't have said so many sharp words without holding back. For so many years, he thought he was grown up and capable of taking responsibility. But now it seems that what he did tonight is really like a willful and ignorant child.

The rain seemed to have no end, and countless water droplets fell from the dark sky, hitting the ground with a continuous "click" sound.

"Ahem." Due to physical reasons, An Lengyao coughed lightly, and his hand holding the umbrella shook.

"An Lengyao, you go back first, I have instructed the Demon Shadow to let him heal your injuries." Yue Ming said, "Let me be alone for a while." ”

"What happened? How can I go back with peace of mind because of your appearance? An Lengyao said.

Yue Ming glanced at his friend beside him, and then he stepped out from under the umbrella and let the rain wet his body.

"I had a big fight with my mother today, I ...... Said many words that stung her. I thought, I was wrong about this. My father died early, and for so many years, it was indeed she who brought me up with hard work, and I ...... "Yue Ming spoke, and it was difficult to continue."

An Lengyao had seen the scene of Yue Ming and Yin Qianluo arguing, and because of himself, Yue Ming and Yin Qianluo had a discord. But after each time, the turmoil will soon subside, after all, it is a mother and son, and the more clever the tongue is, there is always a way to dissipate the anger of the voice.

But this time, it doesn't seem to be the same as before.

"It's because of me." An Lengyao said lightly, this is not a question but an answer in a sure tone. He sometimes wondered why Heaven had arranged for him to be friends with Yue Ming. After all these years, he had nothing to give back to Yue Ming, but the boy stood up for him again and again, even going so far as to argue with his own mother.

"No, yes, it's because of something else." Yue Ming subconsciously denied that he didn't want An Lengyao to know everything, which only increased his guilt.

An Lengyao chuckled: "You still want to hide it from me?" ”

Yue Ming turned his head to look at him, but did not answer.

The rain continued to fall endlessly, as if the sky could not wipe away tears. Raindrops hit the surface of the umbrella with a subtle sound. An Lengyao also looked at Yue Ming, as if he had suddenly made some kind of decision, he handed the umbrella into Yue Ming's hands, turned around and walked into the distance.

"An Lengyao!" Yue Ming reacted instantly, how could he not understand An Lengyao's intentions, he shouted the other party's name to stop him.

However, An Lengyao didn't seem to hear Yue Ming's voice calling out to him urgently. Now, he has only one thought in his heart: to find Yin Qianluo. He understands that everything that is today is because of him. He couldn't watch the mother and son have an argument over him, but he still watched coldly. He thought that he was just an orphan under the fence, how could he be worth paying for him.

Yue Ming saw that An Lengyao had no intention of turning back, and he thought to himself, he couldn't care about anything more. Shook off the umbrella in his hand and ran forward. He couldn't let An Lengyao go to Yin Qianluo. Today, her mother was very angry because of her unscrupulous words, and she already had a grudge against An Lengyao. Now, if she sees An Lengyao, she will inevitably implicate her anger on him, and she can't involve him too!

"An Lengyao, you stop." Yue Ming finally grabbed the other party.

"Let it go!" An Lengyao whispered.

Yue Ming didn't seem to hear his words, but still grabbed his shoulders and didn't relax for a moment.

"I can't let you get into an argument with your mother because of me. This time, I'm going to see her and apologize to her. I'm willing to accept whatever she does with me. ”

"This matter has nothing to do with you, it's my problem! Yao, listen to me, you can't go ......" Yue Ming hurriedly explained, trying to convince An Lengyao.

"What do you mean it has nothing to do with me? Isn't every quarrel you have with the Demon Queen because of me? We've known each other for almost ten years. For thousands of days and nights, I have witnessed countless disputes between you and the Demon Queen, and do you know how guilty I feel in my heart? I'm afraid that one day, you will have irreconcilable contradictions with her...... If, because of our friendship, let you stand up for me again and again, this is not what I want, I don't want your mother and son to be like this. I wish you happiness. In any case, your mother is still alive and the people who love you are still there, so you have to cherish the time you spend with her. If, because of the friendship between you and me, it becomes an insurmountable obstacle between you, I would rather give up this friendship! An Lengyao said.

Yue Ming was stunned, as if he was touched by these words, and was speechless for a long time.

After a long time, he slowly spoke: "Yao, thank you for thinking so much about me. It was my fault. Originally, if you didn't say it, I also decided to go to my mother to apologize, I was sorry for her. Whatever the reason, I shouldn't have had an argument with my mother. …… However, you don't have to go, the responsibility for this matter is mine, it is my fault, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

The rain continued to slide down An Lengyao's chin, and his body was already drenched in heavy rain, but it seemed to be unheard.

"It's no use if you go now, maybe she'll be furious and make the situation worse." Yue Ming said. It was not easy for him to release An Lengyao from prison, not to mention that he was also seriously injured, and at this juncture, there can be no more accidents.

Listening to Yue Ming's words, An Lengyao smiled self-deprecatingly: "Yes, you are right, even if I go now, I won't be able to help you, it's just self-inflicted humiliation." Looking back on these years, although he has the friendship of Yue Ming and Ye Qian's teachings, more often than not, what he sees and hears is others pointing fingers at him behind his back. And his friend Yue Ming is so good, and his identity is so prominent, these are things that he can't compare.

"Yao, I don't mean to despise you, I'm for your good." Yue Ming realized that his words just now seemed to trigger a sore spot in An Lengyao's heart.

"I know you're thinking for me, haven't you always been thinking for me all these years?" An Lengyao looked at his friend, "But Yue Ming, have you ever thought that you are the Demon King, the most dazzling existence here, and your every move has become the focus of everyone's attention." Ever since we met on the battlefield, you've treated me like a confidant, and you don't care who I am. I thank you for that. However, because of this, you fell out with the demon queen because I did not hesitate to punish others, and I can't repay this kind of effort. Friendship is supposed to be mutual, but the span of our identities is too big for me to bear all this. ”

Indeed, for many days and nights, whenever he thought of this friendship, there was a heavy feeling. Yue Ming helped him so much, but he couldn't give back to the other party in the same way. Even the quarrel between Yue Ming and the Demon Queen today, he was powerless to resolve it.

Yue Ming was stunned, he never knew that in An Lengyao's heart, he actually thought like this.

"Yao, what are you when I cross the underworld? Whatever happens, it's my own choice, I never want you to give me anything in return, all of this is my own volition. Yue Ming replied.

"However, I also have my bottom line. Even if it's a friend, I want us to communicate as equals. An Lengyao said. In the end, he also has his dignity, and he doesn't want to be in front of this friendship, in front of Yue Ming, he has always been the image of a beggar.

"An Lengyao, what do you mean by that? Am I not a friend but a king in front of you? Didn't I tell you that the friendship I wanted was also based on equality? Yue Ming asked.

"Yes, you did. However, this is only scratching the surface. Yue Ming, you ask yourself, since we met, what kind of image do I have in your eyes? Is it really someone who can stand side by side with you, or is it an orphan who needs your help at all times, someone who has suffered a lot here? An Lengyao asked loudly.
