Chapter 137 Reason
"What are you thinking? You are so distracted all day long. If you don't accept it, I can fight you again." Lan Bin said dissatisfied with Xiao Yan. This guy was in a daze in the room for two consecutive days.
"Not interested." Xiao Yan changed his hand and supported his chin.
"Then what's wrong with you?" Lan Bin said.
"This, I can't explain it clearly in a few words. Alas..." Xiao Yan changed his side and supported his chin.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to you, the wood. I think you're just heartbroken." Lan Bin said.
"Wood." A bright light flashed across Xiao Yan's eyes. The scene he thought of again in his heart.
Xiao Yan's heart seemed to tremble for a moment. Looking at the afterglow hanging in the sky, she would go back to the Murong family tomorrow. It might be a month or two to see her. At this moment, Xiao Yan made up his mind and it would be painful not to figure out some things.
...
The streets in the evening were very quiet. A bright moon radiated soft moonlight in the sky, covering the earth with a thin layer of silver gauze. A breeze blew by bringing a hint of coolness.
A man and a woman were walking on the street, both of them remained silent, and neither of them was willing to speak first.
"You asked me to come out, but I just wanted me to walk with you." Murong Qingcheng looked at Xiao Yan who was hesitant and sighed, saying, asking him out of this wood to come out without saying anything.
"I'll tell you a story." Xiao Yan finally made up his mind.
"In the past, there was a talented young man who was a genius in the family that had not been released for a hundred years. At the same time, he also had a fiancee who was married with a finger, but he didn't know. He grew up under the favor of people in the clan, but one day, he found that his strength had dropped directly to the third stage of Dou Qi, and the genius' glory fell from him overnight."
"He began to become a waste in the clan, and everyone could bully him or scold him, but a sister who had no blood relationship with him was always by his side, retaining him the last bit of dignity of being a human being."
"In the past three years, his strength stopped moving forward, and at this moment, his nominal fiancée appeared. She proposed to break the engagement without hesitation. The young man wrote a divorce letter in anger. He buried this humiliation in his heart and made a three-year agreement."
"If he loses, he will terminate the engagement; if she loses, she will be a servant and a slave. Three years later, he will be washed away by his former shame and won the victory."
"Then he improved his strength halfway in order to pursue the recognition of his nominal sister's family, and finally they walked together."
"There are reasons behind the silent efforts of a person for another person. I admit that I did a bit too much about breaking the engagement. I should make a decision as soon as possible. I am sorry for you, so I hope you can scold me or beat me. I just don't want you to show that you have nothing to do. I don't think any woman will be abandoned by her fiancé at the wedding and will not be angry." Xiao Yan was a little afraid to look at Murong Qingcheng.
This is a problem that has always troubled Xiao Yan. He would never narcissistically think that he is so charming that a woman who has never seen him will fall in love with him.
Although Xiao Yan forced himself to remain calm when facing Murong Qingcheng before, he still couldn't help but wonder why.
Murong Qingcheng listened quietly to Xiao Yan's remarks. Although Xiao Yan did not say who this was, Murong Qingcheng could still guess what Xiao Yan meant.
She looked at Xiao Yan and didn't know what to say for a moment. She was angry when she heard Xiao Yan breaking off the engagement in public, but for some reason why the only remaining anger disappeared now.
"You are right. One person has more or less purpose in doing things for another. Although my physique is a bit special, my father will not force me to do things I don't want to do."
"The reason why I promised this marriage before I saw you is because my father told me about this marriage that I had been to Lingzhou once."
"Your reputation in Lingzhou sounds really bad, betrayal of the family and bullying Luo, but I found Xiao Wanqing, Xiao Yuting, and Xiao Yuer. At least from their mouths, you are not useless, and Xiao Jun and others, they say you value love and friendship."
"And it's your performance in the past three days in the Murong family. At least on the surface, you are not what you are saying in Lingzhou."
"The other thing is that they all appeared. I don't know how much time I have. Maybe decades, or more than a hundred years, I just hope to find someone I like." Murong Qingcheng said lightly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, and some things are like this.
"True love is seen in times of adversity. You and your wife may be a pair made by heaven. It's because Qingcheng didn't do it well. I shouldn't have entered your life. Since it's my fault, what qualifications do I have to scold you? Xiao Yan, thank you for telling me these things. I will tell Sister Jing about the elixir, and she will arrange for you to meet the president. From now on, I will try not to appear in front of you. You don't have to blame yourself." Murong sighed, with a hint of fatigue in his tone.
"This is the ring you asked me to take. I know you would think you feel like you are living under someone else's roof, but for you, improving your strength is the most important thing." Murong Qingcheng gave the ring in his hand to Xiao Yan.
"It's getting late. I'll meet the Murong family tomorrow. I'll leave first. You have to take good care of yourself in the academy and don't demand too much." Murong Qingcheng planned to leave after he said that.
"I'll take you back. This place is quite far from the Chamber of Commerce." Xiao Yan said.
"No need, I know the way myself."
"But you can't practice. What if you encounter bad people along the way?"
"It's okay, they won't hurt me."
“It will be lonely walking alone at night.”
"It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid."
