PS: In the process of every man's growth, there will be one or several women, they are like books and mirrors, and only through experience, men can understand life from them, reflect themselves, and slowly grow into a mature man, a man who can control the next woman!
At the beginning of this chapter, Qinglong's life has just entered the stage of maturity, and he will also face a turning point in his life!
"Qinglong, you let go of me, I really have something to tell you. Ao Qingluo, who barely broke free from Qinglong's arms, was still blushing, but her eyes revealed the entanglement in her heart at this moment, she raised her head and looked at the beloved man in front of her, and stopped talking.
Qinglong looked at her as if he was looking at his own treasure, although it was only a moment, it was enough for him to remember for the rest of his life, "What's wrong?Qingluo? Did I hurt you? Or do you not like it?" Qinglong smiled evilly, but his hand slowly reached behind the other party.
"Don't do this, I really have something to tell you!" Ao Qingluo broke free, her voice trembled, and tears fell on her face.
Seeing that the girl was really crying, Qinglong realized the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly leaned over to comfort him: "Baby, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I didn't expect ......" Qinglong became more and more anxious the more he spoke, he felt deep self-blame for his recklessness, especially when he saw his beloved girl crying.
"No, it's none of your business" Ao Qingluo hurriedly reached out and covered Qinglong's mouth, her eyes revealing wireless tenderness.
"That'...... What the hell is going on?" Qinglong asked with concern as he took Ao Qingluo's hand away and wiped the tears from her eyes with his other hand.
Ao Qingluo felt the touch of the green dragon. couldn't help but lean his face tightly against Qinglong's hand, as if he wanted to deeply remember the feeling and temperature in this hand on his face. engraved in his heart, I saw her close her eyes. Said softly: "It's okay, can you just accompany me like this?"
Seeing that Ao Qingluo was quiet again, leaning tightly in her hands, Qinglong slowly took her into her arms, stroked her red hair, and whispered in her ear: "If there is anything, you just tell me, let's face it together, it's been so long." Don't you believe me?"
Listening to Qinglong's words, Ao Qingluo's heart was warm, and unconsciously, tears once again overflowed her eyes and slowly flowed out, but she quickly stopped her tears and looked up at Qinglong, "Qinglong, will you forget me?"
Qinglong was stunned for a moment, still looking at the beauty in his arms with a smile on his face: "How can you forget, you are the first person I fell in love with in my life!" There was another deep kiss on Ao Qingluo's forehead.
"However, you will fall in love with someone else in the future, just as you love me now, or even love her more! His eyes were moist again, and his voice was faintly choked.
Qinglong couldn't help laughing, he felt that this was a girl's sensitivity and suspicion. "Fool, we'll be together forever. How can I love others, as long as you don't leave me. You and I are each other's forever. โ
When Ao Qingluo heard Qinglong's oath, she could no longer suppress the pain in her heart, and cried loudly, plunging into Qinglong's arms, crying "I'm sorry, I'm sorry"
Looking at Qingluo's abnormal performance, Qinglong was completely confused, and at the same time, he felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart, and his expression became nervous, "Qingluo, what happened to you today......? Tell me what you can't tell me now?"
Ao Qingluo slowly stopped crying, and looked up at Qinglong again, but at this moment she was entangled and melancholy, and her eyes didn't dare to look directly at Qinglong, and after a while, she opened her mouth, "Today, my aunt came to me and told me...... said that he had already made a marriage with the Yuanyang family!"
As soon as he heard this, Qinglong's head suddenly went blank, and his heart seemed to be pierced by a sharp arrow, a heart-piercing pain, he pushed Ao Qingluo in his arms outward, held her arms tightly with both hands, and stared straight at each other: "What? Your aunt actually wants to force you to marry someone else!"
"My aunt wants my cousin to marry the eldest daughter of the Ao family, and I am married to the Ao family, saying that she is happy and happy, but in fact, it is her 'return gift' to the Ao family!" After saying that, Ao Qingluo couldn't help crying, that is, the sorrow that she was about to become a victim of the family marriage, and the unwillingness to have her own inability to have true happiness, she cried very sadly, lowered her head, tears dripped on the surface of the lake, and there were layers of ripples.
Qinglong looked at Ao Qingluo's heartbroken appearance, and suddenly his heart was also sour, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind, making his whole body vibrate, only to see him look at Ao Qingluo excitedly: "Qingluo, I'm going to your house to find your aunt, I'm going to tell her, tell her about the two of us, tell her that I want to marry you!" Qinglong, who was full of joy, thought that this idea would be agreed by Ao Qingluo, but when Ao Qingluo raised his head again, Qinglong saw a horror and uneasiness that he had never seen before.
"No, absolutely not, you don't know my aunt, what she values most is her family background and bloodline, if she knows about me and you, especially knowing that we have been secretly together with her for so long, she will definitely be angry, besides, my family affairs have been discussed by the two families, if you say this, won't it embarrass her, she will never let you go, she will never ......" The more Ao Qingluo thought about it, the more frightened she felt, she seemed to have seen the end of the two, and the more fear and confusion in her eyes.
Over the years, she knows her aunt deeply, as the head of the family, and she is also the wife of the demon king, with absolute majesty and arbitrariness, her decision is not questionable to anyone, especially the people of the Ao family, are extremely obedient to her, if anyone dares to object, even if it is just a trace of interference and hesitation, she will use thunder means, with the most direct way to make that person disappear from her sight and plan, disappear forever, and unfortunately, over the years, in order to have her own foothold in the Ao family, she has completely surrendered or accepted her aunt's autocracy, and sometimes even becomes an accomplice of her thunder meansใ And now her marriage is an important part of the interests of her aunt's entire family, if she discovers the existence and intervention of Qinglong, the consequences can be imagined......
"Could it be that my dignified prince of the demon clan is not as good as the youngest son of a proud family? Your aunt can still look down on me? she really dares to attack me?" Qinglong looked at Qingluo with a serious face, after all, Qinglong felt that his status as a prince of the demon clan was still extraordinary, and the demon queen was also his own 'queen mother', even if he took 10,000 steps back, he would give the demon king face, and he would not embarrass himself.
However, Ao Qingluo still couldn't stop shaking her head, "Qinglong, no, it's really not good, now you don't need to offend the Ao family for me, you don't know your aunt's methods." Moreover, in her eyes, you ......" Ao Qingluo wanted to speak and stopped, it seemed that there were some words, she didn't dare to tell Qinglong directly, which aroused Qinglong's anger.
"What's wrong with me in her eyes? Qingluo, if you don't say it, I'll go to her!" Qingluo, who was angry, said and was about to walk towards the shore, Qingluo saw that Qinglong was really leaving, and became more and more anxious, hugged Qinglong directly from behind, and said with a crying voice: "In her opinion, whether it is family background or even bloodline, you are just the abandoned son of the demon king, and you can't be compared with other princes at all, let alone the people of the Yuanyang family! Compared with the strong financial resources of the Yuanyang family, she has never put you in her eyes!" Don't you understand! Never ......."
In the end, Ao Qingluo still said what was in his heart, in fact, these words did not need to be said by Ao Qingluo, Qinglong also guessed in his heart, but he still had a trace of illusions, fantasizing that his status as a prince of the demon clan could be valued and respected by others, and now, from the mouth of the woman he loved deeply, he heard the truth that he was most unwilling to believe, and Qinglong's long-term self-esteem was completely shattered.
As soon as these words came out, it was like a loud slap on Qinglong's already fragile self-esteem, and it turned out that the image of the prince of the demon clan that he had been working hard to maintain was so unbearable and insignificant in the eyes of the demon queen and his stepmother, that he had never even received her attention.
"Qinglong, give up, you can't fight her, you can't save me, this is our life!" Ao Qingluo hugged Qinglong and cried incessantly, but Qinglong stood in a daze, looking up at the bright moon, feeling the coldness of the moonlight, Qinglong muttered to himself: "One day, I want the entire Ao family to bow down!"
After that night, Qinglong was still practicing martial arts by the lake, but without the company of Ao Qingluo, after this relationship, it made him recognize the cruelty of reality from the bottom of his heart, and recognized his own insignificance...... (To be continued......)
