Chapter 44 Lu Xingchi is dead
After discovering that Lu Xingchi had escaped from the tribe, Lu Tingxiu immediately found Yunzhi and asked her if she knew where Lu Xingchi had gone.
Yunzhi was still immersed in the shock of Lu Xingchi's escape and shook her head: "I don't know. Why do you think I would know?"
Lu Tingxiu: "Really?"
His tone was skeptical.
He believed that Lu Xingchi must have told Yunzhi where he was going, and then the two of them would meet up in secret.
Yunzhi: "I really don't know."
Lu Tingxiu frowned: "The last person he saw before he left was you."
Yunzhi smiled and said, "The last person he saw was me, so it doesn't mean anything. You might as well reflect on yourself and think about why you forced your own brother to run away."
Lu Tingxiu avoided Yunzhi's gaze: "I did nothing wrong. This is the responsibility he should bear."
Yunzhi sneered and said nothing more.
Seeing Yunzhi's undisguised disgust towards him, and comparing it with her obedient self in his dreams.
Lu Tingxiu felt indescribably irritated.
Why did Yunzhi become like this?
I wish she was the same as in my dream.
Lu Tingxiu tried to soften his tone and coax her: "I'm sorry, I was too anxious. I believe you don't know. Please don't be angry with me."
Such a strange tone made Yunzhi look at him with strange eyes and subconsciously took a step back.
"Lu Tingxiu, don't talk to me like that."
It was as if she was very close to him, even though they had become strangers for a long time. What was she doing? She felt like she was being sexually harassed.
Lu Tingxiu sighed: "Yunzhi, to tell you the truth, I am willing to start over with you. I hope you will consider it carefully."
Yunzhi doubted her ears when she heard this: "Whether you want to is your business, but I don't want to."
Lu Tingxiu: "Why can't you talk to me properly now?"
Yunzhi: "I said what was in my heart, but you just didn't want to hear it."
Lu Tingxiu frowned: "If I did anything wrong in the past, you can tell me, I...I will change. I really want to reconcile with you."
Yunzhi just felt tired. She didn't know what was going on with Lu Tingxiu. Why did he suddenly act like a sentimental person?
He was never like this when I was with him before.
After we broke up, it seemed like I loved her even more.
Yunzhi felt that he had bad intentions: "I won't reconcile with you, don't waste your time."
Lu Tingxiu's eyes became complicated and deep.
Since soft tactics don’t work, let’s try hard tactics.
He was already thinking about how to get Yunzhi to agree to his request for reconciliation.
But before these ideas could be implemented, bad news came out.
The group of people Lu Tingxiu sent out to look for Lu Xingchi had originally tracked his whereabouts, but they ended up fighting with Lu Xingchi.
Lu Xingchi's kung fu was mediocre, and after being injured, he accidentally fell into the surging river and was never seen again.
When the news of Lu Xingchi's life or death was reported, it caused a huge sensation.
Lu Kui and Lu Tingxiu were both silent.
No matter how much Lu Kui disliked Lu Xingchi, he was still his son. How could he be willing to watch him die?
Lu Tingxiu's eyes were blank, and he felt a little confused.
But these two people had no time to be sad, because Lu Xingchi's departure offended the people of the Eagle Tribe.
First, Lu Tingxiu rejected Chen Li, and then Lu Xingchi ran away from the marriage in order to avoid forming a contract with Chen Yao. Is he making fun of the people of the Eagle Tribe?
Chen Yao was furious when she heard the news.
She has been a pampered girl since she was young, and after awakening her special powers, she has attracted everyone's attention.
She was the only one who rejected males since she was a child. When did she become so despised?
The chief of the Eagle Tribe brought a large number of people to the Snake Tribe and caused a scene, demanding an explanation from Lu Kui.
In the end, in order to dispel their anger, Lu Kui arranged the marriage with Chen Yao to Lu Tingxiu.
However, since Lu Tingxiu will become the clan leader in the future, he cannot follow Chen Yao to the Eagle Tribe, and the person he can marry can only be Chen Yao.
This again involved the issue of how to distribute Chen Yao's future children. After a while of discussion, they finally reached a consensus.
Chen Yao and Lu Xingchi's engagement changed to Lu Tingxiu, and their first child must belong to the Eagle Tribe.
When Chen Yao learned that her engagement partner had changed to Lu Tingxiu, her anger immediately subsided and she no longer objected.
Although Lu Xingchi is handsome and she doesn't hate him, Lu Tingxiu, the future clan leader, is more attractive to her.
This farce ended just like that, and the two sides began to return to their previous harmonious situation.
Only one person is the biggest loser.
That is Lu Tingxiu.
From the day Lu Kui proposed changing his marriage partner to him, Lu Tingxiu expressed his opposition.
"There are still many more promising young men in the Snake Tribe who can be married."
Lu Kui's face was filled with deep fatigue. "Do you think the Eagle Clan would be interested in anyone else? Besides, Chen Yao is worthy of you. You don't need to say anything more. Just make your decision."
This time, Lu Tingxiu tasted the bitterness of regret.
There's a feeling of shooting oneself in the foot.
He originally wanted to completely separate Lu Xingchi and Yunzhi.
That's why they designed a marriage between Lu Xingchi and the Eagle Tribe. After Lu Xingchi got married, there would be no possibility for him and Yunzhi to be together.
However, Lu Xingchi's whereabouts are now unknown, and this marriage has come back to him.
Did he do something wrong?
Why did things develop to this point?
Lu Tingxiu was a little dazed.
He did not give up looking for Lu Xingchi.
Wave after wave of people were sent to search the lower reaches of the river.
If he is alive, I want to see him in person; if he is dead, I want to see his body.
But in the end, there was no result, so Lu Xingchi was missing on the surface, but in fact everyone assumed that he was dead and sighed.
Yunzhi didn't believe that Lu Xingchi was dead, so she ran to the upstream and downstream of the river where Lu Xingchi disappeared and searched for a long time.
Yunzhi still holds a glimmer of hope.
Snakes can swim. Maybe Lu Xingchi ran away and hid somewhere after coming out of the river.
Qi Chengfeng shattered her fantasy: "Lu Xingchi is injured. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on in the river for long."
"But……"
Yunzhi felt that all this happened too suddenly and she couldn't accept it.
How could someone who was alive not long ago just disappear like that?
Yunzhi would rather believe that Lu Xingchi ran away and never came back than believe that he died at the bottom of the cold river.
"Yunzhi, don't be sad. If you are sad, I will be sad too."
Qi Chengfeng looked at her worriedly and reached out to wipe the tears from her face.
Yunzhi touched her face in surprise and realized that she was crying.
"Why am I crying?"
It turned out that she started to care about Lu Xingchi at some point.
