Su Su shook her head. She closed her eyes and opened them again. What she saw was still what she saw when she entered the cave. Gu Yizheng held the unconscious Gu Xijiu in her arms and pretended to sleep. In the quiet cave, only the crackling sound of the bonfire could be heard. The bright light of the fire reflected on their equally pale faces, making Su Su's eyes redden. All she wanted was this kind of warmth.
Su Su stepped over the bonfire with her white silk boots. She squatted in front of the two of them, her slender fingers tracing Gu Yizheng's eyebrows. Her lips curled into a faint smile. She looked at her unconscious self and finally closed her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she looked up at Gu Yizheng, her dark eyes looking at the remote cave."Young Master Gu, I'm awake."
Under the quiet moonlight, Gu Yizheng looked at Su Su with a frown. A strange look of doubt appeared on her expressionless face."Miss Su, are you really alright?”
Su Su looked at the crystal clear stream and bent down slightly to put her hand in. The cold and gentle stream stirred her nerves. The moonlight in the stream rippled and the ripples were beautiful.
"Young Master Gu, don't you think the moonlight tonight is pretty good?”Su Su tilted her head and looked at Gu Yizheng, who was standing with her hands behind her back. She raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled faintly. Her long hair flowed down the side of her face as she tilted her head. Her black hair was like a waterfall floating on the moonlit stream.
Gu Yizheng looked up at the half-moon and said lightly,""It's not bad, but isn't it a little inappropriate for a girl like you to bathe in the wilderness?”
"Who said I'm going to bathe? I'm just swimming. Aren't I still wearing clothes?”Su Su turned her head and bent over to roll up her trousers. Her fair, lotus-like calves carefully reached into the stream. The stimulating coldness made Su Su sigh uncontrollably.
He lazily squinted his eyes and enjoyed this rare freedom. Suddenly, she felt that something was missing. Su Su opened her eyes and turned to look in Gu Yizheng's direction. She saw that the man who was speaking to her righteously just now was now awkwardly tilting his head to the side and not looking at her. Su Su could not see his expression clearly in the dark, but she could guess that the atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Why did you turn your head away?" Su Su smiled as she lowered her head and kept stirring the stream with her feet. Her eyes were filled with laughter."Do you want to experience it too? It's very comfortable!"
"Miss Su, do you know how to write the word shame?”Gu Yizheng's awkward and stiff voice reached Su Su's ears, and it aroused Su Su's little bit of stubbornness. She shook her head and dived into the stream without caring if he could see her.
The sound of water breaking alarmed Gu Yizheng. She hurried to the stream and frowned as she watched the water slowly calm down. Although this was a stream, it was not a stream by the roadside. The stream was not deep, but it could drown a person. Not to mention that he didn't know if Su Su knew how to swim, just the fact that she was injured was enough to make her drown in the stream.
"Miss Su?" He called out to her in a low voice, and after a long time of not getting a response, he subconsciously squatted down."Ah Wan?"
She raised her voice subconsciously. Just as he was frowning, the sound of water splashing could be heard. Gu Yizheng felt two slender arms around her neck. Before she could react, she was dragged into the water by the culprit. The cold chill and the warm feeling on her body made Gu Yizheng's already cold face look even colder." Su Su, that's enough."
Opening her eyes with much effort, Su Su looked at Gu Yizheng, raised her eyebrows, and smiled.""Gu Yizheng, I've never felt free. So, before I find the Flowing Sword Technique, can you let me know that there's still happiness and light in this world?”
Her hands were still wrapped around his neck, and a few strands of her long hair were stuck to her fair and somewhat sickly cheeks. There were still small droplets of water on her long eyelashes, and the way she struggled to open her eyes was a little comical and cute.
Gently caressing her cheek, Gu Yizheng pulled out an arc that was not considered a smile.""Ah Wan, if you want it, we have it anytime.”
Su Su smiled and let go of her hand. She looked at the stream water that only reached her chest and dived into the water again.
"Gu Yizheng, put aside your stubbornness for now and enjoy the feeling of not being bound together.”The coldness was crushed, and the pleasant sound of the spring water echoed in the forest filled with moonlight. Gu Yizheng turned her head, and her sharp eyes slowly turned cold after catching a red shadow. When she saw Su Su's jubilant appearance in the water, her eyes softened again, and she dived into the water as well.
In the dark, the woman in red sat lazily on a tree branch covered with green leaves. Her red dress swayed in the green. The night covered half of her face, revealing only the other half under the moonlight. Exotic facial features, a pair of seductive eyes with an unruly arrogance, and the corners of her lips that were curled up were as casual as her entire being. Accompanied by her swaying legs, the crisp and bewitching sound of a silver bell overflowed from her skirt. Under the tree stood a purple-robed man with a gentle appearance. He held an ink-wash folding fan with twelve fan ribs in his hand. He raised his head to look at the woman on the tree and said with a faint smile,"We've been discovered?"
"Of course. Gu Yizheng's martial arts is considered a top notch master. I can't even defeat Su Su, so how can I avoid his vigilance?”Hua Yin yawned lazily as he twirled a piece of grass in his hand. When he finished speaking, he looked down at the man under the tree.
Leng Ruofeng caressed the cold ribs of his fan, the corners of his mouth carrying his usual faint smile, but his eyes were distant and cold."He's not easy to deal with. Ah Wan has him protecting her now, so we'll try to avoid him. At that time, as long as he could obtain the Flowing Sword Technique, it would be easy to kill him. Why? The people in the secret manor have already informed you to call Ah Wan Su Su?”
Raising her eyebrows, Hua Yin leaped down from the tree. Her red dress bloomed like the most beautiful rose, and the clear silver bell sound added to her charm. She landed on the ground and turned around to look at Leng Ruofeng.""Now, everyone in the Shiying Mountain Manor knows that Third Miss has already severed ties with the Leng family. She only admits that she is a member of the Su family. The manor lord followed her wishes and instructed the people in the ancestral hall to cross Third Miss's name out of the genealogy.”
"You know it very well. Leave the Leng family? As long as the Shadow Mountain Manor was not destroyed, she would never be able to escape from the Leng Family. How is Leng Suran?"
Leng Ruofeng looked at the moonlight with a smile and suddenly thought of Leng Suran who had been forgotten in the corner of his mind. Hua Yin revealed a look of pity. Although it was fleeting, it did not escape Leng Ruofeng's eyes."Zichen, she's only twelve. Why must you torture her so cruelly?”
"Cruel? Compared to the pain my mother suffered for her mother, this is just a drop in the ocean. Ah Yin, I know you're a kind girl, but some people are not worthy of forgiveness. The Smiths were that kind of people.”He cupped Hua Yin's beautiful face in his hands, his voice low and gentle, as if he was whispering sweet nothings to her, as if he would only say them to her in this lifetime.
Hua Yin lowered his eyes, covering the light brown pupils that were different from those of the Central Plainsmen. What he covered was also a hint of self-deprecating sorrow. Red and purple intertwined. Hua Yin hugged the man who made her betray everything. In this world, some people were destined to be fire, and some people were destined to be moths. She swore that she would not wait for the next life to take care of all the wrong things she had done today. She only hoped that it would all happen to her in this life. As long as he only befell her…She would accept it even if it meant eternal damnation. She only hoped that he would not lie to her…
Sure enough, no matter whether it was spring, summer, or winter, as long as one had nothing to do at night and went to swim in the cold water, it was inevitable that they would catch a cold. Especially for someone like Su Su who had suffered internal injuries, the cold was already considered mild.
The cave was still the same cave, but the atmosphere was much more relaxed than when they first arrived, even though Gu Yizheng still maintained her cold expression. Su Su realized that this person was not pretending to be cold, but was really indifferent and taciturn. It could be said that he was not good at speaking.
On a sunny afternoon, Su Su was wrapped in the cloak that Gu Yizheng had bought from the town and nestled by the bonfire. It was a sunny summer day outside, but she broke out in a cold sweat. His thin lips turned purple, and his teeth chattered.
"Miss Su, is this the freedom you want?”Gu Yizheng glanced at the unhappy Su Su and fiddled with the burning firewood with a branch in her hand. Her voice was neither salty nor indifferent.
Su Su sniffed and said in a hoarse voice,""You call this gloating?"
It had to be said that Su Su looked much better when she was weak. She looked more peaceful and beautiful than before. Her long hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin, and the hair that couldn't be wrapped naturally hung down. Her languid appearance matched with her slightly flushed face due to typhoid fever, making her look indescribably beautiful.
"I happened to bump into your girl when I went to town.”
"Lunong?" Su Su looked at Gu Yizheng in confusion. He turned to look at her and said lightly,""Lunong, what a strange name, just as strange as yours.”
Su Su sneered and turned to look at the mountain wall.""Isn't your name strange?"
Gu Yizheng couldn't be bothered to waste her time on these meaningless things. She continued to fiddle with the fire and said,""Lu Nong told me to tell you that Pei Siyuan said that you should go back quickly after you've had enough fun. Don't try to test his patience.”
Pei Siyuan? Su Su lowered her eyes to hide the sadness in them. Pei Siyuan would never let her go. How could she covet comfort? Tucking her hair behind her ears, Su Su smiled.""Gu Yizheng, you must know about Leng Feiyi, right?”
The hand that was fiddling with the fire stopped. His pitch-black eyes reflected the wanton burning tongues of fire. His expression was indifferent."So what if you know? I will send her back to where she came from. The Xuanxu Sect didn't raise those delicate things.”
Su Su chuckled and looked up at Gu Yizheng. She teased,""Although Leng Feiyi's personality isn't likable, his appearance isn't bad.”
With a cold smile, Gu Yizheng looked at Su Su coldly."" No matter how good he is, it's still difficult for him to achieve anything great. Qin Mo left Xiushui Town with Leng Feiyi without permission. He didn't complete what he should have done, and he didn't leave behind what he shouldn't have done. This alone is enough to make him suffer a fate worse than death in the torture hall.”
"He was just being used by me.”Su Su looked at Gu Yizheng, ignoring the fact that he was actually referring to her when he said that it would be difficult for her to achieve great things. Tan Mo's brain was indeed too simple. She had only lied to him casually, and he was willing to take Leng Feiyi away. Even if he died in the Xuanxu Sect's torture hall, Su Su felt that it was destined. Such a simple person was not suitable to be a villain.
