I pushed him away. I was kind, okay?
He looked at me without saying anything.
I bit my lip and said,
"From the first time I saw you, that girl called Qiao 'er's eyes never left you, and she even claimed to be your fiancée. Do you think I can't tell? She must have some expectations for you.”
"You even said that without me, you would have married her. Since Qiao 'er has a reason not to return, and you don't hate her that much, as her original fiancée, what's wrong with her staying?”
After saying this, I stopped pacing around in the study room. I flipped open an ancient book as if nothing had happened and waited for the water elementalist's reply.
"Do you really think so?" The cold voice of a water elementalist came from behind.
"Yes." I suddenly turned around and looked straight at him. I replied angrily," That's what I thought. I want her to stay!”
His head was lowered, and his long bangs covered all his expressions.
Anyway, as long as she's a virgin, it doesn't matter to you even if she's not me. What do you mean by waiting for me all this time and only looking at me? That's a lie. Thinking of the soft words he said to me more than once when I woke up, I endured the pain and did not let the tears fall.
"Don't regret it." An even colder voice came from behind me. When I turned around again, he had already disappeared into the water.
This is the first time we parted on bad terms.
It was also the first night that I fell asleep alone without his company. However, she could not fall asleep. As long as she thought of his resolute words and cold gaze, she would feel a pain spreading from her heart to every pore on her body.
I didn't sleep all night.
He didn't return the entire night.
Finally, it was dawn. I dragged my tired body out of bed and wanted to go to the backyard to relax and fight fish to relieve the depression in my heart. After a night of struggle, I made up my mind. It was clearly his fault. If he didn't admit his mistake, I wouldn't reconcile with him.
When he passed by the water elementalist's study, he saw an extremely familiar figure. There was also Qiao 'er, who was serving tea and water.
She seemed to be in better spirits than yesterday. There were no longer tears on her face, but a sweet and innocent smile.
"Lord water elementalist, you've been reading all night. Have a cup of tea and rest.”He was a water ghost to begin with, and this was underwater. He didn't need to drink tea at all. Thinking of our living habits, I stopped in place with the mood to watch a good show.
"Put it down." An emotionless answer.
"Lord water elementalist, you must be hungry. I'll go prepare some food.”
"I'm a ghost. It's fine if I don't eat." It was still an emotionless answer.
"Lord water elementalist, I see that your clothes are a little torn. Shall I sew them for you?”Young lady, wake up. You should have found a good family to marry in your youth. Didn't you realize that while you were courting him, that wooden water ghost didn't even look at you?
The girl who was repeatedly rejected said something before slowly leaving the water elementalist's study. When I came to the corridor, I met someone who had nothing to do.
"Sister Diu Diu!" Her disappointed eyes suddenly lit up, and she almost jogged to my side.
"Qiao 'er." I squeezed out a smile and called her over." How are you? Are you feeling better?”
"Yes, much better." The little girl smiled at me. That smile didn't have the slightest impurity.
Even though I have been away for many years, I still know. Yesterday, I was thinking too much about Qiao 'er's suspicions. The simple and honest folk customs do not allow such disgraceful things to happen. She only has pure love for water elementalists. She doesn't harm me at all.
However, even though I knew that this was the case, I still felt sad when I saw her with a water elementalist.
"Sit down, let's talk." I held Qiao 'er's hand and brought her to the stone table in the backyard.
I could tell that she was still a little reserved in front of me. The young girl rubbed the corner of her clothes with both hands and gently bit her lips, making people unable to bear to blame her.
" Sister Diu Diu, I…" It seemed like she needed a lot of courage as she stammered," I know you had an argument with Lord water elementalist yesterday. Are you alright?"”
Thinking of yesterday's scene, my heart ached again. I smiled bitterly and comforted her,"I'm fine."
"It's all my fault. If it wasn't for me, the water elementalist lord wouldn't have gotten lost and we wouldn't have quarreled.”She forcefully tugged at the corner of her clothes, and Qiao 'er Hua's words carried a sobbing tone.
"It's not your fault." I patted her hand and freed the clothes from her hands." If we had enough trust and honesty between us, we wouldn't have quarreled.”
Yes, it would be great if the two of them could be honest with each other. They wouldn't deliberately compete with each other and hurt each other. Therefore, self-esteem was the most hurtful thing.
"I'm sorry." Qiao 'er said softly as she wiped away the tears that were flowing down her face.
Amused by her cute actions, I felt a little less depressed. He reached out to stroke her hair and asked gently,""As for you, what do you plan to do in the future? Water elementalists are right, you can't stay underwater forever.”
"But, sister, haven't you always lived underwater? Qiao 'er's eyes were filled with fear.
I have the Water Repellent Bead.
For some reason, I didn't tell her this secret. Instead, I held her hand and comforted her."I'm not asking you to go back immediately. It's just that staying here is not a long-term solution.”
Qiao 'er's eyes darkened, and her voice slowly became softer."I want to stay here. Even if I have to do anything for you. Because…"
Because, the first time I saw Lord water elementalist, I fell in love with him.
Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, but I still heard it clearly.
A strong sense of danger arose in his heart. A mere little girl dares to confess her feelings, and I, who's clearly already someone else's wife, am still holding onto that face that's not worth mentioning and lamenting myself here.
"But, water elementalists and I are already married. You're making yourself suffer here.”I suppressed the sorrow in my heart and advised her.
Qiao 'er looked at me and said straightforwardly,"I've already thought about it. Lord water elementalist was an ancient man, so it was acceptable for him to have a concubine.”
But I can't accept it.
These words circled in my heart a few times, but in the end, I couldn't say them out loud.
If I were in another place, would I be like her, throwing caution to the wind for the sake of water elementalists?
"Sister Diu Diu, you won't blame me, right?”Qiao 'er looked at me and asked cautiously, as if she was aware of my feelings.
"You're not wrong. There's nothing strange about relationships.”Suppressing the bitterness in my heart, I answered with difficulty.#
