These short few steps seemed as long as a lifetime to her. Perhaps because she was so excited, she walked step by step, and she could clearly count the steps she took.
Sixteen steps, seventeen steps... Closer, closer, you can see Mo Lian raising her head, and the platycodon flowers seem to become brighter against the light of the lanterns.
Her heart beat faster and faster, and at this moment, she suddenly heard Mo Lian shout: "Honglian!"
Her heart almost stopped beating, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Did he also feel her approaching? Mo Lian, Mo Lian, even if he couldn't see her, he could feel her presence.
She laughed out loud, cried with joy, and almost ran towards Mo Lian.
But the next second, a voice suddenly broke in, clear and loud: "Here!"
A smile appeared on Mo Lian's face, she immediately turned around and walked towards the direction of the sound.
He actually laughed......
Mo Lian, he can actually laugh. She has been with him for so many years, but she has never seen him smile before.
She thought that his pale face would always be cold and lonely, and that the black platycodon flowers represented loneliness and indifference, so she was not surprised that he never smiled.
But when she saw him smiling, Hong Lian felt that Mo Lian was so strange.
Following the direction he walked in, Hong Lian also turned her head, avoiding the pedestrians one by one. Then, in the dimly lit area, there was another one of her standing there, with a light frown and a slight smile, and the lights reflected a little light in her eyes, as bright as a full moon.
The sky is full of stars.
The smile on Honglian's face disappeared little by little, and finally stood stiffly on the spot.
Mo Lian struggled through the crowd and stood in front of the girl with a happy face. She raised the lantern in her hand to show her, "Look!"
The girl shook her head and said: "Mo Lian, you have to follow me carefully. There are many people here and it is easy to get lost."
She didn't notice her lantern, and Mo Lian said with some disappointment: "Ten, iron coins."
"There is progress!" Huang Beiyue gave him a thumbs up and praised him. Seeing his smile, she said: "It's getting late, let's go back."
Mo Lian followed her happily.
Honglian hurriedly caught up, "No! She is not Honglian! I am!"
He was caught before he could even take two steps. Liu Shi said nervously: "Didn't you say you can't show up in crowded places? Your enemies will chase you!"
With that said, Liu Shi quickly dragged her away and covered her with a cloth. There were many people here and it would be terrible if she was discovered.
But he always remembered that she said that she fell into Hell Valley because she was being chased by her enemies. It was not safe for her to come outside because her enemies had too many spies, so she had to cover her face at all times!
Huang Beiyue took Mo Lian a few steps forward when she suddenly felt a strange feeling. She looked back doubtfully. There was a constant flow of people coming and going. She glanced around and found nothing suspicious.
But just now I felt like I was being stared at hard, but now I don't have it anymore.
Maybe she was too alert, so she had the illusion, but she couldn't be careless, she still had to be vigilant at all times.
Without thinking too much, they went back to the inn to rest. They would be on the road tomorrow morning.
"Let go!" After being dragged into the alley, Hong Lian reluctantly shook off Liu Shi and bit her red lip angrily until it bled.
Liu Shi looked at her with a somewhat terrifying look, so he didn't dare to hold her any longer and quickly let go.
