Lu Ming ran wildly in the rain for an unknown amount of time until he was exhausted and collapsed on the ground.
Her gorgeous clothes were already soaked through by the rain, and her carefully styled look was washed away.
At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the state of being looked down upon by others, only his eyes were no longer clear.
Just then, familiar footsteps approached.
A pair of snow-white hooves came into view; this scene was all too familiar to Lu Ming.
When he was ten years old, his parents were murdered in a revenge killing.
Just as the murderer was about to finish him off, this snow-white figure came into his view.
Throughout his life, whenever he encountered danger, setbacks, sadness, or grief, the same scenario would repeat itself countless times.
But this time, it seems a little different.
Lu Ming slowly raised his head and met those deep blue eyes.
Those eyes once held doting affection, tenderness, and laughter, but now only indifference and disappointment remain.
After a long silence, Lu Ming finally spoke:
"Lu Shu, it seems you've recovered. Are you here to kill me?"
Before Lu Shu could speak, Lu Ming gave a sarcastic smile and said to himself:
"Whatever! Life is pretty meaningless anyway, kill me if you want!"
After saying that, Lu Ming lay down on the ground, letting the rain wash over his body and his ugly soul.
Before coming, Lu Shu thought he would be very angry when he saw Lu Ming again, and might even beat him up.
But when he saw the deer calling, he felt unusually calm.
He felt no anger towards Lu Ming, only disappointment and some self-blame.
Ten years ago, he saved Lu Ming and changed Lu Ming's fate, but he failed to teach Lu Ming well.
Perhaps this is the retribution he deserves!
Lu Shu did nothing, not even a word. He simply turned and walked towards Lu Qing and Gu Xicheng, asking:
What kind of punishment will he receive?
Lu Qing: "He practices evil arts. We will take him back, turn him back into a normal person, and then lock him up. As for how long he will be sentenced, I don't know."
Lu Shu lowered her eyes slightly and murmured, "It's good that you're alive."
It's clear that Lu Shu still cherishes their past relationship.
Even though Lu Ming hurt him, even though he knew that Lu Ming was an ungrateful wretch who wasn't worth his effort, he still couldn't let go of his worries.
If it were anyone else, Lu Qing would definitely think he was too much of a saint.
You can't bear to do this or that to someone who hurts you.
But if this person were a deer-like mythical beast, one wouldn't feel contempt.
The reason why auspicious beasts are auspicious beasts is because of their extreme goodness and tolerance.
"Don't worry, Lu Shu. He'll live well in the Investigation Bureau's prison and reflect on the mistakes he made."
After Lu Qing finished speaking, he ordered the investigation bureau personnel to tie up Lu Ming and take him away.
As they passed the Deer-like creature, Lu Ming suddenly stopped and whispered:
"You shouldn't have saved me in the first place."
Lu Shu's eyes trembled violently, and a tear slid down her cheek.
Seeing this, Lu Qing kicked Lu Ming in the buttocks and cursed angrily:
"You heartless bastard! Lu Shu shouldn't have saved you. You should have been slaughtered, dismembered, and chopped into eighteen pieces to feed the dogs!"
"When you were so scared of that murderer that you almost wet your pants, why didn't you say he shouldn't have saved you?"
When you were all alone with nowhere to go and begged the deer to take care of you, why didn't you say he shouldn't have saved you?
When you had no money for food and were being bullied, why didn't you say he shouldn't have saved you?
Lu Qing's words cut through Lu Ming's hypocritical mask like a knife, exposing his ugly nature.
He glared at Lu Qing, his lips trembling with anger.
Seeing this, Lu Qing became even angrier and kicked him again:
"What are you glaring at me for! Did I say something wrong?"
"You only bully Lu Shu and make him sad because you take advantage of his kindness, don't you?"
"I'm not a deer-like creature, I'm not that kind and forgiving. If you utter another word of nonsense, I'll cut out your tongue and feed it to the coal briquette!"
Coal Ball: "..." Master, I don't eat dirty things!
As it turns out, Lu Ming was a bully who preyed on the weak and feared the strong.
Lu Qing cursed him so much, but he didn't dare to utter a single word in rebuttal, and he didn't even dare to glare at her anymore.
Lu Qing raised an eyebrow and looked at Lu Shu:
"See! Nothing's more effective at dealing with a brat than fists and kicks. You've spoiled him too much!"
Lu Shu: "..."
If he had just beaten me up, he would have done it sooner, and perhaps none of this would have happened.
"Thank you! Now that Lu Ming has been captured, I should be going."
Lu Qing: "Where are you going back to?"
Lu Shu: "I'm going back to Qilian Mountain. That's my home. I stayed in the human world for Lu Ming, so there's no need for me now."
Lu Qing nodded slightly: "That's fine. Humans are too complicated and not suitable for a kind-hearted divine beast like you."
Lu Shu: "I will pray for you when we get back."
May you... get through this year safely and overcome any calamities!
As soon as Lu Shu finished speaking, a snow-white light enveloped Lu Qing.
In an instant, she felt refreshed and her whole demeanor changed.
"This is……"
Lu Shu: "It's my blessing, I hope it helps you."
"Thank you!" Lu Qing said with a smile.
Lu Shu nodded slightly, then leaped into the air and ran towards the sky.
Just then, a melodious bird song came from the horizon, and then the rain stopped.
A ray of light pierced through the clouds like a sword, cutting through the gray curtain.
A gentle breeze arose, the clouds grew thinner, and the blue of the sky became increasingly clear.
The sun is coming out!
Golden light shone down, reflecting off the puddles on the ground and creating a shimmering effect.
Everyone I saw was in a good mood, and the gloom was swept away.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Ming, who had already been taken to the car, suddenly slid a tear down his cheek.
...
I don't know if it's because of the appearance of the deer, but spring came exceptionally early this year.
In previous years, Lu Qing would wear a padded jacket when school started, but this year she is only wearing a light coat.
After the start of the semester, Lu Qing was no longer as free as during the holidays, especially in the second semester of her sophomore year when she had more practical tasks.
Liu Changfeng even insisted on leading the four architecture majors from her dormitory to sign up for the competition.
So from the very beginning of the semester, Lu Qing has never had a moment's rest.
He attends classes during class time, and after class he is busy preparing for the competition. In his spare time, he also has to help out at the investigation bureau.
Over time, Lu Qing ate a lot, but lost several pounds.
After working for more than half a month, Lu Qing and her team finally handed over the experimental data, which had been revised for the tenth time, to Liu Changfeng for inspection.
The four people looked at him with trepidation.
They've revised it ten times already; if it still doesn't meet the standards, they're really going to go crazy!
Before leaving home today, Lu Qing even did a little divination for herself, only feeling at ease after confirming that everything would go well.
Finally, Liu Changfeng's brows relaxed, and he nodded with a smile:
"Excellent! The first phase of the mission is complete!"
"yeah!!!"
The four girls almost burst into tears of joy.
"We finally passed! It was such a tough journey for us!"
Liu Changfeng: "Don't be too happy yet. This is only the first phase. There are still big projects to come!"
Upon hearing this, the smiles on their faces vanished instantly.
Lu Qing asked with a pained expression, "Teacher Liu, can I withdraw from the competition?"
