Chapter 101: Farewell
Lu Qingyun squatted down and looked at the little girl. She was pale and thin, obviously suffering from long-term malnutrition. "Little sister, how much do you sell these flowers for?"
A gleam of light flashed in the little girl's eyes, and she timidly answered: "One cent a flower, this bunch is only 20 cents, brother! How many flowers do you want?"
"I'll buy them all."
The little girl heard the words and immediately smiled brightly on her face. She looked at Lu Qingyun gratefully, "Thank you, brother! Brother, you are so kind!"
Lu Qingyun took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to the little girl.
The little girl was startled when she saw the money and shook her head quickly, "I... I can't find it."
"No need to find it, take this money and go buy some delicious food." Lu Qingyun stuffed the money into the little girl's hand, then took the flowers from her hand, stood up, and handed them to Ling Yao, "Yao Yao gives it to you!"
Ling Yao took the flowers and smiled at Lu Qingyun. That smile was like a hundred flowers blooming, more beautiful than the flowers in her hand, "This flower is really beautiful."
"I'm glad you like it." This was also the first time Lu Qingyun gave flowers to someone else. But he planned to give Yao Yao more flowers in the future.
"Brother! Sister! Thank you! I wish you happiness!" The little girl bowed to the two of them, stepped on the steps of joy, and skipped away.
Ling Yao and Lu Qingyun smiled at each other.
Lu Qingyun took Ling Yao's hand and said, "Let's go to the nearby park."
"Okay!"
The air in the park after the rain was filled with a fresh breath. The raindrops on the grass were crystal clear, as if they were pearls sprinkled by nature.
Lu Qingyun and Ling Yao walked hand in hand on the wet path. The sun shone through the clouds and sprinkled on them, warm and soft.
When they came to the lake, the lake was like a mirror, reflecting the sky and the surrounding scenery.
Lu Qingyun tightened his grip on Ling Yao's hand and looked down at her, "Yao Yao." His voice was deep and pleasant, full of magnetism, like a feather gently brushing across Ling Yao's heart, causing her heart to skip a beat.
Ling Yao raised her head and met Lu Qingyun's eyes. His eyes were gentle and seductive, with a hint of teasing, and a hint of shyness appeared on his face.
Lu Qingyun stared at Ling Yao, her eyebrows were delicate, her face was white, her skin was white as snow, and her nose was tall and cute. His eyes slowly moved downwards, landing on Ling Yao's red lips that looked like petals. His Adam's apple rolled gently, with a hint of desire in his eyes. He slowly lowered his head and approached Ling Yao, "Yaoyao, can I kiss you?" He really wanted to taste the lips he had been thinking about day and night, whether they were as sweet as in his dreams.
Ling Yao tensed up and felt Lu Qingyun's warm breath spraying on her face. Her heartbeat was like thunder, and she slowly closed her eyes.
A warm touch fell on her lips, causing Ling Yao's body to tremble slightly.
Lu Qingyun reached out and took Ling Yao into his arms, hugged her tightly, kissed her awkwardly, and slowly deepened the kiss...
The birds in the park seemed to be infected by their happiness and sang happily. At this moment, their world only had each other.
After a long time, Lu Qingyun let go of Ling Yao. He panted slightly, leaned on Ling Yao's shoulder, and calmed the heat in his body. His Yao Yao was so sweet that he almost lost control.
Ling Yao reached out and pushed Lu Qingyun.
"Don't move, let me hold you for a while, it will be over soon." Lu Qingyun's voice was hoarse, as if he was suppressing something.
Ling Yao also felt something at this time. Her face was so red that blood almost dripped out. She gently leaned her head in Lu Qingyun's arms.
When she calmed down, Lu Qingyun looked at Ling Yao, his eyes fell on her soft lips, which were slightly red and swollen, making him want to bully her severely.
"Let's go back." Ling Yao felt uncomfortable under Lu Qingyun's fiery gaze.
"Okay." Lu Qingyun took a deep breath, gently let go of Ling Yao, and walked out of the park hand in hand with her.
Thinking of the kiss just now, he couldn't help but raise a smile at the corner of his lips.
The two walked out of the park and met the little girl who had just sold them flowers. She was being bullied by a man and was crying. "Give me back my money. I used it to buy medicine for my mother."
The man kicked the little girl away. "Go away and don't bother me, or I'll beat you to death."
"Dad, please don't take my money. My mother will die without medicine." The little girl just wanted her money back. She cried and rushed forward, hugged the man's legs tightly, and begged him.
The man was indifferent, kicked the little girl away again, and walked forward. With this money, he could buy wine again.
A tall figure blocked the man's way, "Give the money back to her."
The man looked at Lu Qingyun dissatisfiedly, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes, "Who the hell are you? Dare to meddle in my business, believe it or not, I will beat you to death." While threatening, he raised his fist and waved it in the air.
Ling Yao walked to the little girl and helped her up carefully. "Are you okay?"
The little girl's eyes were full of fear and helplessness. She trembled and pointed at the man. "Sister, I'm fine. It's just that my father took away the money I used to buy medicine for my mother."
Ling Yao's heart was filled with pity. She gently rubbed the little girl's hair. "It's okay. Brother will get it back for you."
"Give her the money back!" Lu Qingyun spoke again, with a terrifying aura in his eyes.
"The money is mine. What does it have to do with you?" The man said, and swung a fist at Lu Qingyun.
Lu Qingyun raised his hand and easily controlled the man.
"Ouch, let go, it hurts
so much." "Hand over the money, or I'll break your hand." Lu Qingyun exerted a little force.
The man grimaced in pain, and finally had to compromise, taking out the money from his pocket and throwing it on the ground.
The little girl hurried forward, picked up the money, and held it tightly in her arms like a treasure.
As soon as the man got free, he ran away immediately.
"Thank you, brother! Thank you, sister!" The little girl bowed to Lu Qingyun and Ling Yao with gratitude, and ran to the drugstore with the money. She had to buy medicine for her mother quickly, otherwise the money would be snatched away by her father again.
Ling Yao and Lu Qingyun retracted their gaze and walked towards the car.
In the blink of an eye, it was already evening. Although Lu Qingyun and Ling Yao were reluctant to leave, the moment of separation soon came.
Lu Qingyun's eyes were full of attachment. He stared at Ling Yao tightly, as if he wanted to engrave her appearance deeply in his heart. "Yaoyao, I'm leaving."
Ling Yao nodded slightly, and the corners of her eyes turned red uncontrollably. "Remember to call me when you arrive at the army."
Lu Qingyun wanted to hold Ling Yao in his arms. He suppressed the thoughts in his heart, nodded, and turned to look at Ling Xuemei and Ji Yanting on the side. "Uncle! Aunt! I'm leaving. See you in Beijing."
"Go slowly on the way." Ling Xuemei warned worriedly.
"Don't be so nagging, let's go." Ji Yanting waved to Lu Qingyun.
Lu Qingyun smiled, looked at Ling Yao reluctantly, turned around and walked away.
Ling Yao silently watched his back gradually disappear from her sight, and it took a long time before she looked away. Goodbye, Beijing, Brother Lu!
