Chapter 20 Secret Romance
PS: Usually, when people write Doujinshi, they would target Cheng Ying and Guo Xiang before they fell in love with Yang Guo. That way, it would be very simple. But I didn't want to write it that way, so this chapter was very difficult to write. I wrote it for a whole day, deleted it, and deleted it. I really couldn't naturally win over Cheng Ying.
＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
After a few days, everyone's external injuries were almost healed, and Lu Wushuang could walk. The scouts heard that the Mongolian army had indeed retreated. Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and the others quietly left the north gate and headed for Mount Hua. Those who were more seriously injured were sitting in the carriage to recuperate, while the rest rode slowly. Originally, everyone was fine and could only walk a few dozen miles a day.
Li Liuyan didn't want to go to Mount Hua, but Lu Wushuang persuaded her,[Everyone's going. Don't be a wet blanket.] Guo Xiang saw that Li Liuyan was not in high spirits these days and asked her why she was rejected, so he asked her to come out and relax. Helpless, they could only travel together.
Along the way, he saw two pairs facing each other. Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Ye Lui Qi, Guo Fu, Wu Dunru, Ye Lui Yan, and Wu Xiuwen, Wanyan Ping. The two rode side by side, chatting and laughing. It was very uncomfortable. Li Liuyan felt depressed and slowed down. She wanted to follow far behind, out of sight, out of mind.
One of the riders also slowed down and came to Li Liuyan's side. Li Liuyan looked up and saw Cheng Ying. She didn't know what to say, so she didn't say anything and hung her head down.
Cheng Ying didn't say anything, and she silently rode alongside him.
Li Liuyan couldn't stand the strange atmosphere and deliberately chatted with Cheng Ying. After saying more than ten words, Cheng Ying remained silent. Li Liuyan had no choice but to remain silent.
At this moment, Cheng Ying said,"Liu Yan, you've been acting very strangely these few days, unlike your usual self."]
Li Liuyan said,[There are always a few days in each month. It's nothing.]]
Cheng Ying rolled her eyes at him and said,"Don't say such useless things. I'm asking you, why are you pulling a long face these days?"]
Li Liuyan said,[It's really nothing. I just know myself better.]]
Cheng Ying said,"Actually, even if you don't say it, I know it's because of Brother Yang."]
Li Liuyan glanced at Cheng Ying and said,[You're very smart. It's normal for you to be able to tell.]
Cheng Ying said,[You like Xiang 'er very much, but Xiang' er likes Brother Yang. Brother Yang is so outstanding. You feel that you can't compare to him. You feel hopeless and very sad, right?]]
Li Liuyan looked at Cheng Ying and said,[That's right, but that person isn't Guo Xiang, but you, Cheng Ying!]]
Cheng Ying thought, Of course I know that person is me, but how can I say it myself? I can only say Xiang 'er to make you tell the truth.]
Li Liuyan saw that Cheng Ying was silent and said," I'm a bit of a rascal, but I know my limits. Handsome, outstanding martial arts, heroic spirit, wild and unruly, who wouldn't like it? Only then did I know why he had lost an arm. It was because even the heavens did not want to see such a perfect person.]
Cheng Ying said faintly,"Do you think that if a woman likes a man, he must be handsome, skilled in martial arts, and a hero of the world?"]
Li Liuyan muttered,"If you're not a hero, why would you like a bear?"]
Cheng Ying seemed to be talking to herself,"The first time I saw him, he went to great lengths to escape from Li Mochou's hands to save my cousin. I thought he was a good person, but when I saw him offer a plan to help Wanyan Ping and then ask for a kiss, I thought he was very smart, but a little lecherous." After I saved him, he threw half of the Unrequited Love Pill into the bottom of the valley. I knew that he was a sincere person. He wanted to become sworn brothers with me and my cousin. I knew that he was expressing his feelings. Actually, even if he didn't do this, I wouldn't have any thoughts. I know where Xiao Longnu is in his heart. I think you should know what I'm saying.]
Li Liuyan didn't know why Cheng Ying said this, but she nodded honestly.
Cheng Ying took a deep breath and continued,"[After that, my cousin and I lived in seclusion in Jiaxing. At first, we had Silly Aunt to accompany us. After a few years, Silly Aunt passed away, leaving me and my cousin alone. I thought that my life would end just like that, but I met another person. He was obviously different from him. His words, actions, and thoughts were different. He showed me a different way of life. One day, he confessed to me, but I rejected him. At that time, he was the same as me. He thought that I didn't agree because of another person. But half a year later, when I met another person and saw that he had found his wife and was living happily, I was happy for him. I knew that his place in my heart had changed.]
Li Liuyan was stunned. She analyzed Cheng Ying's words word by word. Is she hinting to me that she doesn't like Yang Guo anymore? But you like me?]
Li Liuyan whispered,"You rejected me not because I'm not as good as Yang Guo?"]
Cheng Ying shook her head.
Li Liuyan said happily,"Then what's the reason?"]
Cheng Ying did not speak.
Li Liuyan said anxiously,"What's the reason? Tell me. As long as you don't have someone else in your heart, I can solve any problem."]
Cheng Ying said,"You're not from this world at all. Maybe you'll have to go back one day."]
Li Liuyan said loudly,[You know that the organization has already told me that I can't go back. They also said that even if I could, I wouldn't go back. I was serious when I first told you.]]
Cheng Ying said,"Do you know that I'm already 35 years old this year?"]
Li Liuyan said,"What's wrong?" In our country, those who get married at 40 are all in groups. This is the best time in life. It's time to enjoy life.]
"But how old are you?" Cheng Ying asked. Tell me honestly.]
Li Liuyan said,"I…I'm not as old as you, but I'm still 31." You're only four years older than me. Isn't Xiao Longnu four years older than Yang? This isn't a problem.]
Cheng Ying said,"Really?" Judging from your words and actions, you definitely won't be thirty.]
Li Liuyan said,[How can you judge that?] Lu Wushuang was also in her thirties, but what was the difference between her and a twenty-year-old girl? There was also the old mischievous child. He was already a hundred years old, but he was not very steady. The problem of personality has nothing to do with age. Even if I'm 70 or 80 years old, I'm still like this. You…are you trying to brush me off?]
Cheng Ying blushed and said,"Actually…"
Li Liuyan didn't know what else could make things difficult for Cheng Ying, so she said,[Sister Ying, if you have any problems, you can tell me clearly. We can solve them together.]]
Cheng Ying said,"These…these past few years, I've been single in Jiaxing for sixteen years. Now…now I'm getting married. What will Master and Senior Sister think of me?"]
[Ah!] Li Liuyan's mouth was wide open. Was Cheng Ying…shy? Wasn't she Old Evil Huang's disciple? Li Liuyan couldn't believe it was because of this.
Actually, women were more shy, no matter how strong they looked. Because of Yang Guo, Cheng Ying hadn't gotten married for 16 years. If she accepted Li Liuyan, Huang Yaoshi, Huang Rong, and Lu Wushuang's half-smiling expressions, she would rather not accept it than see the looks in everyone's eyes.
Li Liuyan thought for a moment and organized her words.[Sister Ying, Yang Guo can face the world's opposition and marry his master. Why do you care about what others think? As long as you feel happy, it's fine.]]
Cheng Ying shook her head.
Li Liuyan said,[They might not laugh at you. Maybe they will sincerely wish you well when they see you find happiness.]]
Cheng Ying still shook her head.
Li Liuyan said,[If you really don't want to, let's get married in secret and then write a letter to tell them. Is that okay?]]
Cheng Ying kept shaking her head.
Li Liuyan's face was full of tears,"Sister Ying, what should I do? You won't really reject me, right?"]
In the end, Cheng Ying Cai suggested that this matter should be carried out in secret and that they should never know. Li Liuyan had to choose between secretly loving him or not loving him forever.
