Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1447
1444. Chapter 1444 Heart
Li Luo looked up at the graceful figure appearing at the corner of the stairs. From this angle, Lu Qing’er’s legs covered with white stockings appeared straight and slender, and her snow-like skin was shining, as if it was even more eye-catching than the white stockings.
Li Luo walked up with a smile and stood side by side with Lu Qing’er. He looked into the ice-blue eyes of this girl whom he had known for many years, which were like an icy lake. For some reason, he felt that Lu Qing’er seemed to have changed a little when they met this time.
In the past, Lu Qing’er was lively and cute like a young girl, but now, she looked a little cold and chilly, and the smile on her pretty face had obviously faded a lot.
“What are you looking at?” Lu Qing’er said, meeting Li Luo’s gaze.
“Are you okay? When we were separated in Lingxiang Cave a few years ago, you were still frozen in an ice state. I hope it didn’t cause any harm to you?” Li Luo asked with concern.
He wanted to say these words to her when they met, but there were too many people around, so Li Luo held back. Now that they were alone, he asked.
Lu Qing’er shook her head slightly and said, “Lingxiang Cave Heaven is all thanks to you.”
Li Luo smiled and said, “Why are you being so polite? You asked Lü Shuanglu and Zhang Cuicheng to come all the way to help me, and I haven’t thanked you yet.”
Lu Qing’er’s eyes flickered as she said, “What does it have to do with me? They only went to Tianyuan Shenzhou because they had a mission.”
Li Luo was speechless. Zhang Cuicheng had already explained the reason, but she refused to admit it. Her arrogance was still the same as before.
The two walked up the stairs, with scattered sunlight falling on the corridor and on the young couple.
Listening to the familiar voice beside her, the icy coldness in Lu Qing’er’s winter-like eyes seemed to soften unconsciously at this moment, and her pace gradually slowed down, as if she was attached to the scene before her.
“Li Luo, I really miss the old Nanfeng Academy.”
Lu Qing’er said softly: “I still remember that we fought side by side in the Nanfeng Academy exam.”
A hint of nostalgia also emerged in Li Luo’s eyes. At that time, he had just solved the problem of Kong Xiang, and then he teamed up with Yu Lang, Zhao Kuo, and Lu Qing’er, and obtained a place in the Shengxuanxing Academy in that big exam.
Looking back now, four or five years have passed without me noticing.
The young man who was once a nobody has now entered the path of being unrivaled, and they have also embarked on their own paths.
They have been through a lot over the years.
Lu Qing’er’s steps suddenly paused, and her icy voice spread gently in the corridor: “Li Luo, I always thought that the engagement between you and Jiang Xuejie was not from her true heart, but just a way for her to repay a favor.”
Li Luo was stunned and remained silent.
“So, later on, I went to see Senior Jiang and told her that her decision was irresponsible. I hoped she could cancel the engagement and untie the ties between you two. But looking back now, I seemed like a clown at the time.” A self-deprecating smile seemed to appear at the corner of Lu Qing’er’s lips.
Li Luo had a complicated expression. When he was in Da Xia in the past, he could vaguely feel that Lu Qing’er seemed to have some feelings for him, but because the two were too familiar with each other, he did not think too deeply about this feeling.
After leaving Daxia and experiencing Lingxiang Dongtian and Lu Shuanglu’s many words, he finally understood that this girl, whom he had known for many years, actually also loved him deeply.
Li Luo didn’t know how to face the current situation. In the past, Lu Qing’er just kept this feeling in her heart and never expressed it. But now, perhaps because of some subtle changes in her personality, she suddenly brought up this sensitive topic.
So, he could only laugh dryly and tried to make a joke by saying, “You have really been coveting my beauty for a long time.”
Lu Qing’er glanced at him indifferently with her beautiful eyes.
Li Luo sighed helplessly and said, “Qing’er, the engagement between me and Sister Qing’e is not a bond between us. We have experienced life and death over the years and have already become one.”
He and Jiang Qing’e are now husband and wife, and all they need is a wedding officiated by their parents.
The two grew up together and their relationship is deep, needless to say. However, Lu Qing’er’s intuition was correct. In the beginning, Jiang Qing’e might have really been in a grateful mood. At the same time, because she had a deep attachment to her small home in Luolan Mansion, she wrote a marriage contract.
But over the years, the two have supported each other and hovered between life and death time and time again. Li Luo can already clearly feel that Jiang Qing’e’s feelings for him have long since changed from the original gratitude and sisterly love to a complete love between a man and a woman.
The two of them loved and relied on each other deeply, and overcame one disaster after another.
Lv Qing’er listened to Li Luo’s words and said softly, “You two are the most legitimate couple.”
Li Luo was silent for a long time and did not speak. There are many people in this world who have many wives and concubines, and it is even more common in the Tianwang lineage. However, the relationship between him and Jiang Qing’e may not allow for a third person. And Lu Qing’er is not an ordinary person. She is the eldest daughter of the Lu lineage of Jinlong Mountain. In terms of background, she is stronger than the Li Tianwang lineage.
How can he take all the good things in this world?
The only sound in the corridor was the gentle footsteps of two people.
After a long while, Lu Qing’er continued to speak softly: “Li Luo, you don’t have to worry. I have been hiding my feelings for so many years. I am not explaining them to you now because I want any result.”
“I just want to cleanse my heart.”
“I will inherit Lv Mai’s “Ice Holy Seed” in the future. This holy seed has the power to freeze the heart and ruthlessness. So, when I succeed in inheriting it, my past emotions will also be frozen. At that time, we will really be just friends.”
Li Luo’s heart trembled slightly, and he turned to look at Lu Qing’er. At this moment, the girl had a slight smile on her red lips, but in her ice-blue eyes, it seemed as if the emotions were gradually fading away.
The sense of alienation is also growing stronger.
“I came to the Sky Mirror Tower to look for you this time because I wanted to help you once again. So, no matter what you need, I will do my best to help you fulfill it.”
“Just as…”
On Lu Qing’er’s beautiful face, a smile like a snow lotus blooming in the cold winter appeared, and she said, “This is to thank you for teaching me the first physiognomy technique when I was in Nanfeng Academy.”
When he first entered Nanfeng Academy, many boys and girls had not yet discovered their compatibility, but Li Luo showed an amazing talent in physiognomy. The instructor asked Li Luo to assist him in teaching everyone physiognomy, and the girl was the one who had received instruction from Li Luo.
At that time, it was just a pure feeling. That handsome boy with a confident smile and full of patience was like the first ray of light falling into the heart of a young girl who had not yet fallen in love.
From then on, there was a faint shadow.
Lu Qing’er stopped at this moment. She pushed open the door on the side of the corridor and walked in.
“I’m in the room.”
Lu Qing’er smiled slightly, then slowly closed the door. Through the crack of the door, Li Luo’s dazed figure gradually became blurred.
The door closed, as if frost was covering the scars in my heart, and at the same time, the soft voice of a girl was heard.
“Li Luo, long time no see.”
“Goodbye, Li Luo.”
