Chapter 269: Leisure time with Xueke
He Ning Rongrong came out of the big forest, and it was already dawn.
After absorbing a soul ring and a soul bone, Ning Rongrong's consumption was also very large, and she fell asleep when she arrived at a resting place.
Tang Hao and his family evacuated after helping Xiao Ye defeat the soul beast, which was also the reason why Xiao Ye and Ning Rongrong went to look for the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm that night.
Now that Ning Rongrong is resting here, only Xiao Ye and Xue Ke are left in this town.
The morning sun is very bright, and the air here is quite fresh because of the proximity to the large forest.
Ning Rongrong was still sleeping, while Xiao Ye and Xue Ke were walking around the town.
There was no one in the town, and it had been abandoned because of the previous beast tide.
The masonry on the ground had long since worn away, and fresh green grass had grown.
Today's Xue Ke has rarely returned to the dress of his youth.
She only wore a long white dress, the ground here was soft, and she did not wear shoes, she was barefoot, and stepped directly on the ground.
Xue Ke's feet are beautiful, fleshy, and her rounded toes are like pearls, which is very cute.
Applying bright red nail polish to the toenails adds a touch of charm to its noble temperament.
The soles of the feet are in contact with the soft earth, giving people a very fresh feeling.
The short-haired girl who followed Xiao Ye back then has now become a long-haired royal sister, and her identity has also become the most noble and responsible person in this huge empire.
The two of them just took a walk and didn't say anything.
At the end of this abandoned path, Xue Ke spoke: "Brother Xiao, how long have we not walked together like this?" I remember after graduation, we seemed to be getting together a lot. ”
When he was at the Guandou Royal Academy, Xue Ke's favorite thing was to follow Xiao Ye and rotate.
Xiao Ye nodded and sighed, "Indeed, Ake." You've grown a lot over the years, sorry for ignoring you over the years. ”
In the blink of an eye, that cute little follower also became a noble emperor.
Xue Ke shook his head: "I know that Brother Xiao also has his own things to do, so there is no need to delay yourself because of me." ”
"Time, it's so merciless."
Xiao Ye sighed, from a cowardly girl to a mature emperor, there are many grievances that Xiao Ye can't understand.
Xue Ke has been able to become so mature in recent years, I don't know how much pressure she has to bear alone.
Xue Ke was the most sentimental of the Emperor Fighting Team back then, but now she has become "ruthless", and this transformation is undoubtedly quite painful for her.
"After graduation, everyone's relationship is not as simple as before."
To be more specific, this time is after Operation Soul Hunt.
White agarwood has been out of the experience.
Ning Yu collapsed because of Niu Li's death.
Dugu Yan is okay, she occasionally goes to accompany Xue Ke.
Yu Xiaoxiao became a mercenary from the little princess of the Blue Electric Overlord Sect, and she wandered on the edge of life and death every day.
Ge Yuanhao became the chief knight of Xueke.
Xue Ke sighed: "The years have taken away too much from me, but I will try my best to protect the sincerity that once belonged only to the princess Xue Ke in the hands of the years." ”
"Although fate has already led different partners to different paths, shared memories will link us to the end of life."
"When I was a child, I was most afraid of being alone, always begging my father or brother to sleep with me. Now I'm used to being alone, because I know that in the end I can only rely on myself. ”
The last sentence is an indescribable pain and resentment, but at the same time, it also contains incomparable firmness.
In the past, Xue Ke was the pearl of the Tiandou royal family, and the pampering care of her father and brother's love made her once think that she was the happiest person in the world.
And when she became an adult, the situation was completely opposite.
The favorite person married someone else as his wife and had children of his own.
The father who loved him was poisoned alive by the imperial brother in front of him.
And the royal brother is an undercover agent sent by the hostile forces.
The last chicken feather.
The first half of my life was like a beautiful but illusory dream.
When he woke up from his dream, something called responsibility pressed on his shoulders along with power, and at this time Xue Ke knew that the only thing he could rely on was himself.
I don't know how many nights she couldn't sleep at night, and the tears had run out during that time, and she hadn't cried a single time until now.
She learned to be strong.
"Brother Xiao, I'm tired, I don't want to be alone anymore."
The skirt slipped to the ground.
Xiao Ye's body was also burning with raging flames, and his clothes were also turned into ashes in the flames.
The two hugged each other tightly.
"It's nice to be able to find a shoulder to lean on now. Brother Xiao, how good it would be if I could rely on you like this forever. ”
Xiao Ye gently kissed Xue Ke's forehead, he didn't know how to answer Xue Ke.
This girl gave the best of her youth for herself.
"It's so tiring to be alone."
Xue Ke also knew that this question could never be answered.
"Brother Xiao."
At noon, the two lay on the soft lawn and looked at the sky together.
"Power, is it really that tempting?"
Xue Ke hadn't thought through this question until now.
It would have been great if his father had given way to "Xue Qinghe" when he was seriously ill.
The empire will thrive in the hands of the prince's brother, his father's illness may gradually heal, and he is still the carefree little princess, dreaming innocent dreams that only belong to him.
It's a pity that there are no what ifs in this world.
Xiao Ye sighed softly: "Ake, if." I mean, what would you do if one day I never came back? ”
"I don't want to if. Brother Xiao, I don't know if there really is such a day. ”
"Willful to run away from home once? Or just work so conscientiously until you die, or become the king of the empire. It doesn't matter, I'm afraid I won't think too much about it at that time. ”
Xue Ke was also a little confused, and Xiao Ye was one of her spiritual pillars.
As long as Xiao Ye is there, she will not panic no matter what happens.
To put it more bluntly, without Xiao Ye, she would have died in the calculations of the Wuhun Palace.
"Will you come with me?"
"Yes, even if you give up everything I have."
Xue Ke said this sentence categorically, without a trace of hesitation.
"So, Brother Xiao, you must tell me if you want to leave."
"Okay."
Xue Ke stood up and changed her clothes again.
She returned to her former calmness and elegance: "It's not too early, Sister Rongrong is almost awake." ”
Xiao Ye nodded: "Let's go back." ”
