Chapter 716: The Past Is Like Rain
In a flash, five years later.
The innocent little girl back then has grown into a young girl who can see that she is a beautiful embryo and will be stunning in the future.
That day, she was alone and went to a bookstore to buy some rice paper.
This bookstore is very old, with a history of hundreds of years, and the rice paper produced is a must in the imperial capital, so although it is located in the middle of nowhere, in the slums of the imperial capital, the business is excellent.
But coincidentally, it rained heavily that day, and the streets were almost empty, so the girl had to walk in the heavy rain with an umbrella and a thick dozen rice papers on her back.
When a few of the thugs in the city saw her walking alone in the rain, they began to flirt with her, and whistled and began to play.
The girl is not an ordinary person, after the incident five years ago, she began to learn martial arts and learned to swim.
Seeing someone molesting, the girl's reaction was not as forbearant as that of ordinary people, but chose to reprimand angrily.
Outcome...... The thugs all gathered around.
They're not ordinary people either!
All of them are thugs of the underground power of the imperial capital, because of a torrential rain, hiding under the eaves on both sides of the street to avoid the rain.
Originally, under the cover of the umbrella, they didn't see the appearance of the people inside, but they only knew that Lu Dao was a girl. When the girl returned the mouth, they were surprised to find that it was such a beautiful little beauty, and they immediately thought about it.
Seeing that the street was empty, several thugs immediately surrounded her, and tried to take her away and take her to a place where no one was defiled.
She took advantage of a gangster's inattention, slapped the other person in the face, and used the umbrella in her hand to directly stab the other gangster's eyes.
This stabbed the hornet's nest, and several thugs went crazy on the spot and shot at her directly.
At that time, her strength was still very weak, and she had no problem dealing with one gangster, but she was not an opponent at all when she dealt with a few gangsters.
Seeing that her innocence was not guaranteed, it was the person who saved her back then, who fell from the sky, with three punches and two kicks, solved those gangsters, and beat those people to the point that they were dying.
She recognized it at a glance, this person was the big brother who saved her back then, but the other party ...... But I don't remember her growing from a little girl to a beautiful girl five years later.
Therefore, after making sure that none of these gangsters had any ability to resist, he said to her: "It's not safe, you are a girl's house, how can you come out and walk alone?
With that, the man turned around and was about to leave.
At this time, the girl who escaped death finally abandoned her reserve, and couldn't help but stop him with a red face and ask him for his name, but the other party just waved his hand and said, "It just happened to happen, and there is no need to leave a name." ”
At the age of twelve, the girl who already knew some about the relationship between men and women looked at each other's backs obsessively, her cheeks were dizzy, and she could only watch each other go farther and farther.
It was still the gangsters who were almost killed, and revealed his identity.
"What fucking bad luck, how did you meet him?"
"Hey, it's not bad if you don't die, damn it, if it were someone else, I would definitely take revenge on him, it's just that this bastard is the son of his mother's general!"
"He is a tiger general, and he is tired of provoking him, forget it, pick up a life today...... It's already good!"
"This damn bastard, he can't be his general's son, he has to strike iron ...... in the slums"
The girl's heart was pounding, and she felt like she could find out the other party's identity!
Ignoring a few dying thugs, she hurried out of the place.
Later, she really found out the identity of that person, and knew that he was the only son of General Xu Zhongtian, named Xu Jie, who liked to strike iron, liked to live in slums, and had a jealous and hateful temperament, and all the underground forces in the imperial capital were afraid of him.
I also know that he also has a few brothers, one of them is the eldest prince who is not liked by his family, and the children of the family who can't cultivate, and the fat man who likes to flirt with girls but has a sense of proportion, and the Sui Yan who is not smiling and likes to study mechanical techniques.
Since then, the girl has been following his news, and whenever she hears about his heroic deeds, the girl will always lock herself in her room, blushing and fantasizing that one day she will meet him again.
After a few more years, the girl not only did not forget this man, but was more impressed, and saw him again in several aristocratic events that she had not been willing to participate in......
It's just that the guy with the thick lines forgot about her again.
The girl also tried to contact him, but he had been with his brothers and did not look at her.
The girl was a little sad and a little lost, but she still pretended to be him in her heart.
Until one day, the girl's family began to arrange a marriage for her, the girl panicked, she wanted to say that there was already someone in her heart, but that kind of thing ...... How can a daughter's family say it?
Can only be rejected...... Say no again!
Constant rejection!
So much so that the imperial capital had a reputation for her cold arrogance, but she didn't care!
She believes that one day, she will be able to impress him!
And at this time, she has grown into a generation of beautiful women.
Marriage fell from the sky, and the other party's mother actually came to the door and offered to make her a daughter-in-law.
At that moment, she felt that she was the happiest woman in the world!
When her mother asked her opinion as usual, thinking that she would refuse as she always was......
She nodded in agreement!
To this day, she remembers the difference on her mother's face.
I couldn't believe that she, who was not interested in all the young handsome people in the imperial capital, would actually agree to marry a vulgar man who could only strike iron......
But the other party's family background is indeed very good, and although Xu Jie is vulgar, he has a good reputation.
is not like those noble gentlemen, who only know how to ruin Lao Tzu's reputation. So her mother nodded and agreed to the marriage.
However, the impermanence of life is full of drama......
He returned from the front and was ...... by his side And with a woman.
That woman is a general in an enemy country, but he likes her, loves her, and wants to marry her!
The girl's world collapsed directly, and on the day she knew the news, she locked herself in her room and cried for a whole day!
She was extremely sad, and she didn't know what she should do, and it was only then that she regretted it, why didn't she tell her family earlier? Why didn't she tell her earlier?
If she could have told her family earlier, then how could he have brought back another woman?
The result of being reserved is to watch the person you like marry another woman.
Her mother comforted her and said, "Forget it, I don't want my precious daughter to marry such a rough man!"
She just wept silently, speechless.
She still kept an eye on the man's news, and whenever news of him came, she would become unusually silent.
Later, the female general of the enemy country ran away from marriage, and she suddenly felt that her world suddenly lit up.
Even at this time, she had quietly cultivated her strength to an extremely high level, but she still thought: as long as he is willing to marry, even if she bears the ridicule of the world, she will marry him!
"The female general of the enemy country, you don't like him, I like him!"
Later, his father and mother, cheeky, came to the door and wanted to renew this marriage, but her father was furious and wanted to drive the other party out of the city.
At this time, she finally let go of all her reserved pride, stood up directly, and said out loud the words that had been buried in her heart for more than ten years.
"I'm going to get married!"
On the wedding day, he left, but she didn't regret it, because at this time, she was no longer the innocent little girl she was back then.
She knew him well and had already guessed that there was a good chance that he would run away.
She only thought about one wish back then, and although she still liked him, she no longer insisted on staying by his side.
She is Liu Ruyu, the proud Liu Ruyu......! Willows like rain!
The scenes of that year, like a picture scroll, unfolded in front of her eyes.
After many years, when she saw him again in this strange land, Liu Ruyu found that she could face him calmly.
Although deep down in her heart, she will still inadvertently ...... There was a ripple.
But really...... Nothing anymore.
"Let's just think he's an old friend!"
"My savior!"
"I owe him ...... I can't pay it off in this life. ”
Liu Ruyu looked at the man in front of him who was breathing with his eyes closed, and a touch of distress flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he hated the Xuancheng Jin family in his heart.
After a long time, Xu Jie slowly opened his eyes and looked at Liu Ruyu, who was still standing opposite him, like a fairy walking out of the painting, with a wry smile on his face: "Thank you, thank you, I'm sorry." ”
Liu Ruyu stared at Xu Jie and said, "Xie Lu, thank you for accepting it, forget it if I'm sorry." ”
"...... back then" Xu Jie was a little bitter in his mouth, and wanted to say something.
"Don't mention the things back then, I'm the daughter-in-law of the Xu family, but I'm not your wife. When she said this, Liu Ruyu's calm mind was still a little turbulent, a little sour.
"I ...... I don't know what to say about those ...... "Xu Jie, this steel man, he didn't know how to speak very well, and now he can't."
"It's all over, just let it pass. Liu Ruyu pretended to be relaxed, looked at Xu Jie and said, "Are you okay?"
"I ...... It's okay. Xu Jie sighed and said, "The Divine Domain is not as good as I imagined, if I had a choice, I would rather not fly up." ”
"No matter where it is, wherever there are people, there will be these things, and it is unavoidable. Liu Ruyu looked at Xu Jie and said quietly: "I don't want to see a depressed old man, there is a news, you will probably be very happy when you hear it." ”
"Oh, what news?" Xu Jie looked at Liu Ruyu.
"I have news from Xu Luo. Liu Ruyu said lightly.
"What?" Xu Jieteng paused, stood up, took two steps forward, and felt that something was wrong, looked embarrassed, rubbed his hands, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry...... I'm a little excited. ”
Liu Ruyu looked at Xu Jie faintly: "See me...... I've never seen you so happy. ”
"I'm not...... I am...... I don't know how to face you. Xu Jie gritted his teeth and finally said this.
Liu Ruyu's eyes lit up and looked at Xu Jie: "Is this true?"
