Meng Zirou appeared quietly in front of Lu Xiao's bed. Looking at the man who was still sleeping, she suddenly had mixed feelings in her heart. She was so afraid of facing the truth, afraid that she would lose Lu Xiao one day. However, she was even more afraid of every day in the future.
They all live in endless fear and speculation, worried about gains and losses, like rootless duckweeds with no support. Lu Xiao refused to say it, and she didn't want to believe Li Mubai's words. Now only by finding out the answer by yourself can she get the real answer.
of peace of mind.
The doors and windows of the room were closed tightly, but Meng Zirou's elegant dress suddenly bulged and flew up, as if the wind was constantly circling around her. It was obvious that huge spiritual power was constantly condensing. The fingertips of Meng Zirou's right hand
A dazzling light spot appeared, getting brighter and brighter, and slowly raised it, pointing to the center of her eyebrows. Based on her cultivation, it was impossible to sense Lu Xiao's true body without skin-to-skin contact. And she didn't want to
Let Lu Xiao know that he has done such a voyeuristic thing. Only by opening his own eyes can he see the other party clearly.
The moment her fingers touched her eyebrows, Meng Zirou hesitated. She frowned and looked at Lu Xiao's angular face without blinking. Lu Xiao's firm voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "-----
-I can protect you, Rou'er. As long as I'm here, no one will hurt you again------"
Just because something like Li Mubai happened, is it really fair for me to doubt Lu Xiao's feelings now? Moreover, is his truth really that important? If there is no sincerity, even if
What's the point of being both demons?
The spiritual energy condensed on her fingertips slowly dissipated, and she lowered her arms dejectedly. Meng Zirou breathed out helplessly. She leaned over to help Lu Xiao tidy up the quilt, and turned around to leave.
A warm big hand suddenly pulled her Ji Yi. Meng Zirou turned around in surprise, only to find that Lu Xiao's eyes had been opened and he was looking at her tenderly, like the bright stars in the night sky, bright and charming.
.
——"Lu Xiao, are you awake?"
"Yes!" Nodding gently, Lu Xiao's eyes suddenly overflowed with love. He looked at the woman he loved deeply with pity and said softly: "Rou'er, I am indeed alone."
Meng Zi was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he had not really fallen asleep just now, and his every move was seen by him. His pretty face suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look directly at Lu Xiao
Eyes: "Lu Xiao, I'm not - I'm sorry!" Apart from apologizing, she really couldn't think of any other more appropriate language at this time.
Lu Xiao fondly pulled her hand, asked her to sit next to him, and continued to ask: "You don't need to apologize. You are afraid that I, the genius disciple, will return to Xiaoyao Palace to cultivate immortality, that's why you are like this
Nervous, right?"
Seeing Meng Zirou nodding gently, Lu Xiao smiled again, and then his face became serious: "That genius is my brother. Although we look very similar, his character is quite lawful, gentle and kind. It was he who taught me
Many of Xiaoyao Palace's spells told me many secrets of Xiaoyao Palace, so even though I didn't join Xiaoyao Palace, I cultivated myself into an immortal body."
"Oh, so that's it!" Meng Zirou nodded noncommittally, her purple eyes bottomless. She seemed to completely believe what Lu Xiao said, but also seemed not to hear what he was saying at all.
——"Later, my brother and the woman he loved lived in seclusion, and we lost contact. When we met again, he seemed to be a different person, full of violent and murderous intent. Later, Yazhen told me that my brother's beloved
The woman was brutally killed by the people of Xiaoyao Palace, and even the child who had formed in her belly was dug out. Afterwards, my brother took me and Yaizhen to the meeting of gods and demons that happens once in a thousand years. On that day, my brother was killed by Liu Dao.
Zhenjun beat him to death, but I survived by luck and was brought back to the Demon City by the Moon-Eating Demon Lord. It was also on that day that I met you for the first time------"
Lu Xiao's voice gradually stopped, and he looked ahead confusedly, obviously immersed in deep memories. Meng Zirou did not disturb him, but just sat aside sadly, looking at Lu Xiao's pale face with distress, and finally
I understand why he rejects immortal cultivators so much and hates Xiaoyao Palace and the True Monarch of Six Paths so much. The deep hatred of killing his brother and his sister-in-law will not be forgotten even after a thousand years. What's more, he fell into the devil world and was despised by the world because of it.
This pain may not be erased even if tens of millions of years pass.
After a long while, Meng Zirou grabbed Lu Xiao, put his hand into the quilt, and comforted her with concern: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't mention these things. However, it's been so long, so you should too
Let it go!"
"I know!" Lu Xiao finally came back to his senses and forced a smile on his pale face.
Meng Zirou looked at the still hazy moonlight outside the window, stood up and said goodbye: "It's still early, you can sleep a little longer! I'm going back first!"
"Rou'er!" Without wanting to, Lu Xiao pulled her back again: "Can you ------ stay with me?"
Meng Zirou didn't answer, her purple eyes were full of surprise. She never thought that he would make such a request at this time and say it so directly.
Lu Xiao knew that she had misunderstood, and couldn't help laughing, and explained helplessly: "What's your expression? I just suddenly feel a little lonely, and I want you to stay with me for a while. What are you thinking?"
"
Meng Zirou pouted, knowing that she was overthinking again, and couldn't help feeling embarrassed. But seeing the teasing and evil smile in Lu Xiao's eyes, she felt a little unwilling to accept it, and retorted harshly: "What can I think about? I just want to
Just take a good rest, you're overthinking it!" He said and sat back down.
In fact, she knew in her heart that Lu Xiao felt empty and helpless because he remembered the past and felt uncomfortable. At this time, what he needed most was someone to accompany him, and she was the best candidate.
Tucking Lu Xiao's hand back into the quilt again, Meng Zirou put away the smile on her face and comforted her softly: "I won't leave, I will stay here with you! You can sleep a little longer and recover.
Body, we still have to go to the Zhi tribe to find clean water!"
Lu Xiao nodded in understanding, closed his eyes obediently, and after a while, he snored slightly. Meng Zirou also felt a wave of tiredness coming over him, and lay softly beside the bed, falling asleep in a daze.
.
After Meng Zirou fell asleep, Lu Xiao slowly opened his eyes and looked at the happy woman carefully under the dim moonlight. He couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart. He didn't know whether what he did was right or not. After all, he was well-intentioned.
Lies are a kind of deception after all, and in the emotional world, the last thing that should happen is this kind of hurt.
However, the situation in front of him left him with no choice. Meng Zirou would come to spy on her true body with her heavenly eyes. It was obviously something Li Mubai said to her that made her suspicious. Although she finally chose to give up, this did not
This is not a good sign. Instead of being discovered by her one day, it is better to retreat now and stabilize the situation temporarily. In this way, Meng Zirou can at least calm down and stop worrying about the unchangeable past.
.As for those lies, wait until there is a suitable opportunity in the future and explain them slowly.
With a soft sigh, Lu Xiao stretched out his hand and stroked Meng Zirou's delicate cheek gently. The warmth and smoothness from the jade-like skin made Lu Xiao feel at ease. Meng Zirou's wrinkles were a little tired.
Frowning, he shook his little head slightly, murmured a few times, and fell asleep again. He was obviously very tired. Looking at her childlike innocent and sweet look, Lu Xiao couldn't help but smile fondly again.
. He casually pulled up the blanket next to her and gently covered her body. Then she lay down flat and fell asleep quietly.
