Volume 1: The Rebirth of the Owl Demon Chapter 374: No more wearing red clothes
"Okay, I promise you."
After thinking for a moment, Gu Qingyang gave Luo Hongchen an answer. Luo Hongchen also smiled and nodded after hearing Gu Qingyang's words.
Compared with before, this time, Luo Hongchen's smile was less arrogant and more sincere.
The shopping mall is also like a battlefield.
In the past years, in order to win the so-called victory, he has used lies more than once in exchange for the opportunity to win.
But this time, he really didn't lie. Everything he said was true, because this matter really related to his sister, and he had to take it seriously.
And from Gu Qingyang's eyes, he could naturally see that Luo Hongchen was really serious and had no intention of lying.
This really surprised him.
However, although this incident was unexpected, it was reasonable. In fact, he could quite understand Luo Hongchen. After all, he was also an older brother.
Moreover, Luo Hongchen didn't leave him any benefits. The man who could have been his uncle said that the Luo family would help him.
Of course, Gu Qingyang didn't have much hope for the Luo family, because he also knew that in addition to the brother and sister, the Luo family also had a large group of elders in charge.
But saying this is better than not saying it. There is a commitment first, and it is completely different than having no commitment at all.
"Darcissus, please keep this."
"If, I mean if."
"If Brother Luo really leaves one day in the future. If some people in the Luo family force you to do so, you can sacrifice him."
"I want you to remember that as long as I, Gu Qingyang, am still alive and as long as you sacrifice this thing, then I will definitely help you settle these things."
"Brother Luo can give me a promise, and I can naturally give him a promise in return. However, it would be better for Brother Luo to live a little longer."
"I am really weak now."
Originally, Gu Qingyang's words were extremely serious, and such sincerity made Luo Shuixian's eyes turn red.
However, at the end of the day, Gu Qingyang's last words made her burst into laughter. In fact, it was indeed the case.
Although she didn't want to face the reality, her brother was indeed frail and sick, and no matter how many resources from heaven and earth were used, he could not be completely cured.
Therefore, her brother's lifespan will not be particularly long. Even though her brother is still very young, there is actually not much time left for him.
"Hehehehehahahahahaha——"
"Brother Qingyang, you are such a wonderful person."
Hearing what Gu Qingyang said, Luo Hongchen didn't care about his image and started laughing directly.
And his appearance really made Luo Narcissus suddenly startled. The next moment, she didn't know why, she burst into tears.
How many years?
How many years has it been since she saw her brother laughing like this? It seems that her brother and Gu Qingyang met very late.
However, she did not realize that the reason why Luo Hongchen laughed was because he discovered that Gu Qingyang was actually an extremely smart person.
When their status reaches their level, they still have to face all kinds of lies.
And after getting used to those lies, especially people who lie.
People like them will have the ability to distinguish the true from the false in people's hearts at a glance.
When it comes to such eyesight, Luo Narcissus may still be inferior.
But Luo Hongchen was different. He had already perfected his eyesight. He could always see people very accurately.
It was precisely because of this that he discovered that underneath Gu Qingyang's extremely sincere appearance was actually a heart full of holes.
Maybe Gu Qingyang didn't really want to lie, and he didn't really intend for those lies to be derived.
However, some things in this world can only be solved with lies. And some lies are created from the truth.
For example, what Gu Qingyang just said.
Luo Hongchen believed that what Gu Qingyang just said was true. But he also believed that what Gu Qingyang said must be incomplete.
He knew that Gu Qingyang must know many things and many truths. But Gu Qingyang did not mention those things.
From beginning to end, the side Gu Qingyang showed to them could only be regarded as one of the thousands of faces Gu Qingyang had for thousands of years.
However, this is also normal.
If it were him, Luo Hongchen, in Gu Qingyang's position, he would definitely not tell all the truth at this time.
After all, such behavior is too dangerous. They seem like friends, more like allies.
But if Gu Qingyang is sold, he can get the Luo family to rise again, and even achieve supreme glory for eternity.
Then Luo Hongchen couldn't guarantee that no one in his Luo family would betray Gu Qingyang.
After all, the Luo family is not the Luo family for Luo Hongchen alone. Over the years, the internal strife in the Luo family has actually been quite serious.
Many people have been coveting his position as the head of the family for a long time. But as long as he is alive, those people dare not take action.
After all, he is the head of the family.
His strength as the head of the family is truly terrifying. In this conversation, ever since Gu Qingyang made his promise, he has won.
Originally, his merciless invitation was, to put it bluntly, paving the way for his sister, and perfecting her imperfect state of mind.
To put it bluntly, his merciless request did not bring much benefit to Gu Qingyang. In a sense, it was close to nothing.
And the promise given by Gu Qingyang was truly worth a thousand dollars.
He knew that Gu Qingyang's ability to make such a promise meant that Gu Qingyang had already made up his mind.
No matter what happens in the future, no matter whether he is still alive or not, as long as those elders dare to bully Narcissus, my sister Narcissus can ask her friend for help.
Actually, this is fine.
People at their level sometimes don't really need to rely on marriage to confirm a relationship. Marriage is more like a means to them.
"Thanks."
As soon as Gu Qingyang finished speaking, the jade pendant had already fallen into Luo Shuixian's hands. At this moment, Luo Shuixian's voice was choked with sobs.
She said two words, but her beautiful eyes were buried in tears. Big drops of tears fell. At this moment, she was already sinking!
She finally understood the full meaning of what Yelan Yaoge said that night.
Gu Qingyang, this person is like a glass of extremely mellow poisonous wine.
The scary thing about it is that you clearly know that it is a glass of poisonous wine, but you will still be attracted by its mellow aroma and eventually drink it.
The fatal thing about him is that what he shows to others is never false. This man conquers Yelan Yaoge by relying on his true feelings.
The same goes for letting her sink.
In fact, if possible, she really wanted to fly away with him at all costs to see this wonderful world.
But her reason is also telling her that this is impossible. She cannot pass this test just for her brother.
She can leave anyone behind.
But this is the only brother she would rather die with than be separated from him for a day.
She obviously has this status, but now she can enjoy freedom to the maximum extent. Who brought all this?
Not this brother yet.
It was him who withstood all the wind and rain for her, allowing her to live in this world the way she wanted.
"With that, Qingyang took his leave."
"A month later, Qingyang will go to the Southern Region for training. From then on, whether we can meet again depends on fate."
"Brother Luo, take care. Narcissus, there are some magical powers in that jade pendant. You can take it out and practice with Brother Luo."
"Although this magical power cannot make you immortal, it can still extend your life. I believe Brother Luo will like this gift very much."
"By the way, your clothes are quite nice."
"Farewell."
"We will meet again in the wilderness someday."
"A single word of Taoist friend wipes out all the vicissitudes of life."
…
After leaving his last words, Gu Qingyang left the splendid Luo Mansion with a smile on his face without looking back.
At the same time, Luo Hongchen was staring at his back as he left, lost in thought for a long time, in a daze, wondering what he was thinking.
"elder brother."
"Um?"
"From now on, I won't wear red anymore."
"good--"
Looking at Luo Shuixian, who was already crying in tears, Luo Hongchen choked up for no reason when he said the last sentence.
He is in pain.
This was the first time in his life that he blamed himself like this. He knew very well that if he could be stronger, maybe she could leave.
However, there are not so many ifs in this world. Failure to recruit Gu Qingyang into their Luo family is indeed not a good thing.
Fortunately, they did not have further conflicts with Gu Qingyang. Even he, the head of the Luo family, looked at this man with admiration.
"If you don't want to wear it, then don't wear it."
"Narcissus, it's my brother's fault that he can't send you to him."
"But if those old guys at home want to bully you, my brother won't agree."
…
In just a moment, Luo Hongchen's voice returned to its previous state, sounding without any emotion.
However, after Luo Shuixian heard what this brother said, she threw herself into his arms and started crying loudly.
At the same time, Gu Qingyang, who was about to step out of the gate of Luo Mansion, also heard such cries.
After all, he couldn't hold it back.
He looked back, his nose sore.
He only felt that his mood was complicated. At this moment, he felt guilty and determined, but more importantly, he was envious.
Luo Hongchen at least had a chance to listen to his sister cry, but he -
After a while, Gu Qingyang turned around silently and left slowly. Under the watchful eyes of Xiaozhu, Mo Lan, and all the servants, he disappeared.
"That's it, is it over?"
"It seems that the lady is very sad."
"Master Gu is not the kind of person who is unkind and unjust. Come to think of it, even if he refuses, he still has something to hide, right?"
"That must be the case. People like him are not like the heartless people who can be seen everywhere in this world. Mr. Gu is a good person."
…
In this way, the two maids closest to Luo Shuixian were talking to each other.
Gu Qingyang, on the other hand, has regained his previous state. He is now only thinking about one thing.
