Chapter 766: A woman’s laziness cannot be explained
After hearing this, the Night Emperor was silent for a long time, then sighed softly and said:
"Is there any woman in the world who doesn't love heroes?
"When he was here, I always felt that he had a lot of problems: greedy for money, stingy, lustful, and liked to play with feet...
"But after his death, I felt more and more that these small problems were completely negligible compared with his great qualities.
"When you were imprisoned by Supreme Haotian on the Tiangong Floating Island, he was willing to put aside his own plans, expose his clone, and take huge risks to rescue you from prison.
"When Xuandan Tianzun invaded the wilderness, with his cultivation, he could have left everyone behind and fled to another world alone. But he chose to stay without hesitation, using his own sacrifice to bring vitality to the entire wilderness.
"Moreover, he is very resourceful and courageous. In just a few years, great changes have taken place in Dahuang. Seeing that the people of Dahuang miss him day and night is enough to show that he has indeed helped them live a better life."< br>
"Sister, since you said that, does it mean that you admit that when you asked me to stay away from him, you actually made a mistake and made a wrong judgment?"
As Jiang Zhaoyue said this, he took out another paper box containing tiramisu cake from his sleeve and ate it with great gulps. Soon the corners of his mouth were covered with cream.
"No, he is a good person, and you should stay away from him." After hearing her words, Ye Huang immediately became solemn and said firmly.
"Why?" Jiang Zhaoyue looked confused.
It is natural to stay away from bad people, but what is the reason for staying away from good people?
"Because 'a scholar's laziness can be said; a woman's laziness cannot be said'," Ye Huang replied, with a hint of heaviness in his tone, "Once you like someone, you will have a weakness in your heart." . When he is alive, you will be worried about his gains and losses, and you will feel unhappy because he is close to other women.
"And if he passes away, you will fall into pain, as if there is a missing piece in your heart.
"I don't want you to suffer such pain like me."
"Pain..." Jiang Zhaoyue repeated this word in her heart.
After a moment of silence, she asked: "But I think, sister, it's not all painful for you to be with him, right? One night, you were so happy that you even woke me up from my dream through the blood connection .”
The Night Emperor frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and finally remembered which night Jiang Zhaoyue mentioned.
Recalling that she and Gu Xu had been tossing in the palace all night, her cheeks couldn't help but be stained with a blush, but her expression gradually became colder, and she said lightly: "You remember wrong."
"Humph." Jiang Zhaoyue snorted, dissatisfied with her sister's obvious words of lying to her.
At this moment, she had just devoured the tiramisu, and naughtily dipped her fingers into some of the remaining cream in the box, and smeared it on her sister's face when she wasn't prepared.
After the prank succeeded, when she saw her sister glaring at her, she stuck out her tongue and slipped out of the ashram like a gust of wind.
She ran all the way to the edge of the lake in Changchun Garden.
The night fell, and there was silence all around, except for the rustle of the weeping willows swaying in the wind by the lakeside.
The lake was shrouded in hazy darkness, seeming to merge with the distant night sky.
Looking at the fine ripples on the lake, Jiang Zhaoyue remained motionless, silent like a sculpture for a long time, letting the cool evening breeze caress her silver hair and purple skirt.
"My sister is just lying," she thought silently, "There is nothing wrong with liking someone. He will tell me stories, cook a lot of delicious things, and his body smells very good. Even if I Even though I'm in a desperate situation and locked up in prison, I can still hold on to hope and wait for him to save me, instead of waiting in despair to die.
"My sister talks bad about him all day long and tells me to stay away from him. She clearly wants to occupy him all to herself and is unwilling to share with me. "Humph, my sister is so bad! ”
Thinking of this, she jumped towards the lake.
However, she did not fall directly into the water, but turned into a dazzling silver light in mid-air.
In an instant, the figure of the stunningly beautiful girl Yan Juyingsha disappeared without a trace, replaced by a five-clawed silver dragon that was dozens of feet long.
The silver dragon is covered in scales like moonlight, shining coldly in the night.
She groaned softly, flicked her long tail, and jumped into the lake.
In an instant, the water surface splashed into high waves, like huge silver flowers blooming in the night. The layers of petals spread around, and the water droplets splashed out like little stardust, falling on the trees and grass on the shore.
Jiang Zhaoyue swam a few laps in the depths of the lake, and then slowly approached the shore. Her huge dragon head slowly poked out of the water, her purple pupils shimmering in the night, silently staring at the path along the shore.
In the past, every time at this time, that person would always appear at the lake on time, dressed in Tsing Yi, with fluttering sleeves and a gentle smile, telling her the ups and downs of love stories.
When listening to stories, she was always deeply immersed in them, and worried about whether the hero and heroine could get together smoothly.
When a story ends in tragedy, such as "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" or "Master Luo and Miss Zhu" adapted by Gu Xu from "Romeo and Juliet", she will even be sad about it for several days.
However, once she got rid of the emotion of the story, she couldn't help but start to wonder: Can such heart-touching emotions really exist in this world? Or are those touching plots just fictitious fantasies in the book?
But now, when she recalled that Gu Xu held her in his arms and risked many dangers to rescue her from the prison guarded by powerful enemies, she also thought of herself in his arms, surrounded by his familiar and pleasant smell. At that time, she not only sighed:
It turned out that I had inadvertently become a character in the drama.
Not only that, even the life and death in the story actually happened to her.
"Of course it exists, maybe it's just that your fate hasn't arrived yet."
The words Gu Xu once said echoed in her mind, and Jiang Zhaoyue felt sour in her heart, and even the silver dragon tail couldn't help but hit the lake hard. The splashing water broke the tranquility of the lake, but it could not calm the turmoil in her heart.
When he said this to her, she had no idea that her fate was already close before her eyes.
By the time she finally understood, it was already too late.
"Who first saw the moon by the river? When did the moon on the river first shine on people?"
That was a verse he once recited casually.
It's a pity that Jiang Zhaoyue can never see the person she wants to see again.
…………
"I didn't expect that in this world, you can actually practice cultivation."
On the nine-curved stone bridge covered with snow, Gu Xu suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Lu Shiyao beside him and said.
