I remember the first time I met him was on a snowy day.
"You don't look very old, yet you're so pretty... I rarely call people pretty. How did you get here alone?"
He sat by the fire at the entrance of the cave, his back to me, and whispered.
“…”
Since I had just been rescued from the snow demon by him, I was slightly injured, so I could only take the pill he gave me, and then curled up beside him, watching him silently and warily.
Should I tell him that I came here alone because I was angry with my family?
I'm sure people will laugh at me if I look like that. I even lost my storage bag. It's too easy to expose myself as having no backup plan. What if he suddenly has evil intentions...
"Are you... okay?"
I started to say that although I didn't want to admit it, I could tell from his attitude towards me that he would never do anything to me.
Because his gaze was completely different from that of some other men, without any extraneous emotions at all...
Thinking about it now, it's really annoying. I hate the way he looks at me without any desire, as if I were just a tool.
"A snow demon in the late stage of foundation building can't hurt me."
As if he suddenly thought of something, he turned around and looked back. The bonfire shone on his calm face, making people feel that he should not be a person of this century.
"By the way, what are you talking about?"
He continued, looking me up and down.
“…”
I lowered my head, didn't respond to him, and closed my legs together in fear.
If I had traveled there normally at that time, any guard around me would have been able to deal with the snow monster.
I was so timid and impatient back then, which I now find very offensive. I really have to thank him for helping me grow.
"...Forget it, then I'll let you go alone from now on. I still have a mission to complete and can't stay for long. Goodbye."
He stood up sympathetically, packed his small bag, and turned to leave.
"Wait, wait..."
I reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, my mind in a mess.
I didn't want him to leave. I don't know why, maybe because I felt that my attitude was a bit cold and impolite.
And I was indeed scared by the snow demon. If he could stay with me, I would feel much more at ease.
"I, I am Chu Ruoxue..."
I whispered, so softly I wasn't sure if he could hear me.
“…”
He didn't say anything, but I raised my head in confusion and met his deep eyes. Those eyes were like a deep pool that I had seen before, filled with countless stories.
"What a nice name, Fellow Daoist Chu."
He smiled at me. It was the first time I saw him smile. Well, I really like seeing him smile. I feel that when he smiles, he is truly himself without disguise.
But I should hate him now, I can't like him anymore.
My face turned red when he looked at me. It was a strange reaction. I still can't remember why I felt that way.
Now I can no longer have that feeling, I should hate him.
"...Then, what are you doing?"
So I lowered my head again and asked his name hesitantly.
"...Fellow Daoist Chu, when you ask someone's name, at least look at them and ask, right?"
He said this jokingly, touching my face rudely and lifting my head up.
“…”
He was very close to me at that time. It was the first time I looked into the eyes of a man so closely. My head became more and more confused, and I even forgot what I said the next day.
But I can never forget how he looked then, how he looked afterwards, and the time I spent with him.
"Saint, there is news."
My thoughts were interrupted, I put down the flower jade, stood up and left the Star Altar, and followed the subordinate assigned to me by the sect to the teleportation array.
As for what happened later, he stayed with me until dawn, and then walked with me to a big city before saying goodbye to me.
When we were leaving, I accidentally discovered the clan's card he had hidden...
No matter what, I should hate him now, hate my senior brother.
Yan Quan, that is his name, but I have called him senior brother so many times that I have become accustomed to calling him that.
Yes, I do hate him, but that doesn't mean I have no other feelings for him.
Brother, brother, do you know that I can't forget you, so you give me this opportunity now?
"Saint, regarding that Chu Tuo..."
"Give him some clan reward and ignore him."
I said casually, I have some impression of that Chu Tuo.
Because I often appeared around my senior brother at that time, I still have some impression of him.
But I don't have any good feelings towards him. Just like those thieving cats who get close to my senior brother, he has also occupied a lot of the time that should have belonged to me and my senior brother.
I am so tired of life!
