"Am I not letting you down?" Peng Qingying broke the silence and said softly: "Maybe you want me to be considerate and gentle to you in the past two days, but I don't. These two days must have been hard for you. ”

Li Yuan smiled slightly, did not answer, and slowly paced along the river bank first, Peng Qingying hesitated for a moment, and also stepped to follow. The black fog in the sky slowly disappeared, and the moonlight seemed to become brighter, reflecting the sparkling waves of the river, and with the soft moonlight, the two of them emitted a surging clear light.

After walking wordlessly for a while, Li Yuan slowly stopped, turned around and looked at Peng Qingying, who was thinking about his thoughts, and said: "Qingying, I have had a very comfortable life in the past two days, and I have not had such a peaceful and peaceful life for a long time." Look here, like a fairyland on earth, living here, it seems that all worries can be left behind in the nine heavens, and I enjoy these two days with you. ”

Peng Qingying's eyes lit up, and she looked at Li Yuan but stopped talking. Li Yuan sighed lightly and said, "However, although this place is beautiful, it is only a beautiful scenery, but in my opinion, it is not perfect. If only one person lives here alone, what are these scenery, a real fairyland on earth, in addition to beautiful scenery, but also have loved ones.

Life is short, and if a white horse passes by for decades, it is actually just a dream. But what we experienced in this dream, why we feel real, is because there is pain and sadness, but also happiness and happiness. Without these feelings, if only one person is lonely and lonely, this dream is really a useless and illusory dream, which is equivalent to coming to the world in vain. ”

Peng Qingying was silent, she didn't understand why Li Yuan was so emotional, but she also slightly understood what Li Yuan wanted to express.

Li Yuan then said softly: "For many years, many people have not dared to face their true selves because of fear, because of fear, and often choose to escape, choosing to hide in the deep mountains and old forests and live in seclusion for a lifetime. This may not be a mistake, but in my opinion, it is rare to be surrounded by mountains, forests, lakes, and rivers, away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and to spend limited time, but to forget the preciousness of being a human being. How negative and cowardly is this?

For me, no matter when I am, no matter where I am, as long as the loved ones are still there, as long as the desire in my heart is still there, even if I suffer, even if I shed blood and sacrifice, I will insist on facing it to the end, because this is really alive, I can face and live my life calmly, and everywhere is a fairyland on earth. ”

Peng Qingying's starry eyes sparkled at Li Yuan, and secretly applauded Li Yuan's words in her heart. It is strange that a twenty-one-year-old man could say this, but it also proves that he is not shallow. If he is really a great hero in his heart, he has a deep mind, and this mysterious quality is very attractive.

The moonlight was bright, Li Yuan reached out to hold Peng Qingying's hand and whispered, "Qingying, now I'll answer your question." You asked me if I had been disappointed in you for the past two days, and I replied that I had not. ”

Peng Qingying's face was flushed, and her face was feverish. The little hand was tightly held by Li Yuan, feeling the warmth of the other party's skin, all of which made her feel flustered in her heart, and she didn't know what to do.

"In the past two days, I have seen the most simple and pure Peng Qingying, a princess Aluo who is willing to be lonely and can endure loneliness. Yes, you didn't say anything gentle and considerate, or even deliberately flattered me, and you didn't say half a word to me, but I could feel your sincere love. The clothes you made for me were good, and I'm sure it was the only time you made clothes for someone because it didn't fit.

During the day, you were anxious to get me into the water on the shore, fearing that I would be attacked by the river. In the middle of the night, you quietly covered me with a thin quilt, for fear that I would suffer from the cold of the night. In the past two days, we have lived the most peaceful life, watering flowers, picking vegetables, catching fish, talking and laughing, and it may be a bit boring to do too many of these things. But when you do these things, I can always see that you care about me and care about me, and that makes me feel very satisfied.

So, I'm telling you in all seriousness right now, I do like you. ”

Peng Qingying's body trembled slightly, her palms became cold, and her body curled up together. Not the wind chill at night, but because of the excitement. As the daughter of the illustrious Peng family, Peng Qingying is emotionally blank, thinking that after she found out that she liked Li Yuan, her mood actually changed slightly.

Especially in Langzhou, the enthusiasm and care of Li Yuan's family rolls in the Jiedu Embassy Office made her even feel that she shouldn't like Li Yuan, after all, around him, there was the down-and-out and generous Zhou Ehuang, and Wang Jingyao of the small jasper, and these women who looked better and more beautiful than themselves, they all loved Li Yuan, and they were all his women.

It is true that the reason why Peng Qingying resolutely wants to live in the deep mountains and dense forests is partly due to the customs of Dongxi, and partly because Li Yuan said that she was escaping, just because she didn't know how to deal with the relationship with Li Yuan, so she chose to escape.

Then when Li Yuan appeared in front of her again, Peng Qingying was very flustered, as a woman, she didn't want to show her love for Li Yuan cheaply, and she didn't want to accept the happiness that came from pity. But her every move still exposed her heart, and she was made clear by Li Yuan's words tonight, and there was nowhere to hide.

"Qingying, come with me, I'm going to take you away, I can't let you stay here. It's not a wonderland on earth, and you can lose yourself. My mansion is your true home. Li Yuan said in a deep voice.

Peng Qingying twisted her waist in a panic, looking forward to this scene countless times in her heart, hoping for this moment in her dreams countless times, but when this moment really happened, she felt panicked and scared.

"I ...... I ......" Peng Qingying whispered, trying her best to pull her palm out of Li Yuan's hand, struggling so much that her feet swayed from side to side, almost wanting to fall.

Li Yuan frowned and said, "Don't you want to?" ”

"I ......" Peng Qingying didn't know how to express her mood at the moment.

The fire in Li Yuan's eyes was obviously slowly extinguished, and he finally let go of Peng Qingying's palm, turned around and sighed softly, the moonlight sprinkled on his body, turned around again, and gently arched his hand to Peng Qingying, who was standing by the river: "Peng Niangzi, it seems that she is making a lot of affection." By the way, I didn't see my portrait in your room, it seems that your brother is lying. You're not in love with me, it seems like I'm wishful thinking.

In that case, I will not disturb your tranquility, and as for the fact that you have to live in the mountains and forests, I may think of other solutions when I return. In the future, if you need my help, just ask your brother to send a horse to let me know, and I will help you. I had a great time these two days, and you have given me wonderful memories.

So, I'll leave now, Mrs. Peng, cherish it in the future! ”

Li Yuan turned around and walked strides, his steps were decisive and fast, and he soon walked dozens of steps away. Peng Qingying, who was standing alone by the river, was stunned, and after waking up, she found that Li Yuan's back had gradually become a lake under the moon, and suddenly she felt as if her heart had been hollowed out, as if she had lost her most precious thing in an instant, and her heart began to tremble, and she suddenly panicked.

"Don't go, don't go." This is Peng Qingying's true heart, but she just opened her mouth and didn't make a sound.

The figure strode away and disappeared into the moonlight. Peng Qingying suddenly woke up, and finally took a step to catch up. Because Li Yuan often went into the water to catch fish in the past two days, the river bank was wet and slippery, and the violent movements made Peng Qingying slip and fall down, and her body fell into the icy river with a "plop" sound.

Peng Qingying doesn't know water, she really doesn't know water, and her instinctive reaction after falling into the water is to grab and kick in a panic. The consequence was that Yuan himself was in a shallow place, but he did not obey the call to move towards the deep water, and soon, the river water on the hijab gushed in, and when he choked a few mouthfuls of water, Peng Qingying's mind began to mold the lake.

In just a few breaths, Peng Qingying felt that the world was spinning around, the whole world collapsed in front of her eyes, and her body began to sink into the cold river water.

The moonlight in the sky shone brightly, shining through the ripples of the river, shining on Peng Qingying's miserable white face that sank into the water. Peng Qingying's heart was like ashes, she began to realize that she might die here, and the remorse in her heart was overwhelming.

But her regret is that she failed to express the true love in her heart before death comes, and she regrets that she failed to face her heart.

"That's it, it's better to die, after all, I'm too cowardly."

Peng Qingying's inner voice told herself, her hands and feet slowly gave up struggling, her eyes looked through the river, watching the moon in the sky turn yellow and dark, and the surrounding area was gradually enveloped in heavy darkness ......
