After Lu Yunsheng asked that question, the air froze for half a cup of tea.
Jiang Beiting's Adam's apple rolled, his eyes locked on her, and he turned the black jade ring three times on his knuckles before speaking: "Found it."
A gleam flashed across Lu Yunsheng's eyes, and he suddenly laughed out loud.
"So Master Jiu doesn't love you anymore?"
He found her, and she confirmed that she was Xuan Ying, but after she returned from the underworld, he was no longer as enthusiastic and proactive as usual.
Lu Yunsheng could only think of one reason: no longer in love.
Jiang Beiting: “!”
Countless words got stuck in his throat. How could he not love her?
But he would not allow Meng Po's words and the disaster in the Wangchuan illusion to happen again.
He suppressed all his emotions and spoke slowly: "Ms. Lu, love is when two people are in love with each other. If one party is entangled and pushes the other party to a hopeless situation, this is not love, but just a pathological possession."
"No chance of recovery?"
Following his words, Lu Yunsheng's mind flashed the handsome and arrogant face of Qingyuan from Lingqi Continent.
She remembered the night she woke up, wearing Qingyuan's dragon-patterned black robe, the bonfire he lit beside her, and then she remembered how he peeled off his dragon tendons for her and was beaten back to his original form...
In order to get Qingyuan to escort her out of the illusion, Jiang Beiting consumed 90% of his own spiritual power.
Combined with his current response, he seems to be...trying to cut his losses in time.
Lu Yunsheng never thought that one day she would be regarded as a burden.
He wanted to withdraw, so she naturally let go.
But when she thought of what Qing Yuan said to her before they parted - "No matter who you are, you will always be the stupid little bird in my heart..."
Lu Yunsheng felt his heart tighten. At that time, he only wanted to escape from the illusion as soon as possible and return to the underworld. At this moment, memories came flooding back.
It was as if something very precious was slipped away from her hand. When she lost it, she looked back in confusion, but there was no trace of it.
Lu Yunsheng said with trembling lips, "Okay, that's fine too."
good?
He turned his head, with indescribable emotion in his eyes.
Lu Yunsheng looked at him and said calmly: "Before, I felt that the relationship between you and me was awkward. Now that you have let it go, I can marry Mr. Jiang with peace of mind."
Jiang Beiting listened to her casually talking about marrying his nephew whom he looked down upon from head to toe, and finally couldn't help asking her: "Do you like Yu Chen?"
Lu Yunsheng avoided his gaze and said, "I don't like anyone, but if I need someone to solve my problems, he is a good choice."
“…”
"Master Jiu, please tell me when your spiritual power recovers. I will wait for you to fulfill your promise."
After saying this, Lu Yunsheng left the study room neatly.
After the door opened and closed, her scent was no longer around.
Jiang Beiting sat on the sofa and drank a lot of tea to digest her words.
She doesn't like anyone.
Even though I knew the answer, my heart still ached as if I was being executed.
"Shengsheng, if love is a disaster for you, then let me bear this disaster alone."
…
When Lu Yunsheng returned to the room, he slammed the door shut. In a moment, he felt as if a huge stone was pressing on his chest.
Not far away was the dragon-bone umbrella that he had held up for her when he appeared in the underworld.
At this moment, the dragon bone umbrella was hanging on the wall lonely and desolate, exuding a coldness that no one cared about.
"Is this the male?"
Lu Yunsheng murmured.
In the previous moment, in order to find Ah Ying, Qing Yuan could be reborn into another world to be someone's son or grandson, could agree to all her conditions, and could even cut his blood to coax her into fortune-telling and finding someone; in the next moment, he wished her a happy wedding with another man...
What a fickle species!
Lu Yunsheng threw out a talisman to hide the dragon bone umbrella, so that he wouldn't be bothered by it.
When his eyes turned and he noticed the little dragon egg on the sofa, his eyes suddenly lit up.
It’s time to give the little dragon egg a bath!
She walked forward slowly, carefully picked up the glowing dragon egg, and walked into the bathroom quietly.
The warm water washes the mysterious patterns on the surface of the eggshell.
Suddenly, her fingertips felt something strange - there were several hair-thin cracks on the eggshell!
Lu Yunsheng held his breath and put his face close to the gap, only to see a dark red mist flowing inside the egg!
"Adan?"
"Xiao Chongming?"
Lu Yunsheng tried again and again, but there was no response.
Her pupils trembled and she was obviously panicked. Could something have happened to the little guy?
Just as she panicked, suddenly, a childish voice rang out: "Mother... Mother finally found me, 咤咤咤."
Lu Yunsheng's heart skipped a beat. "Chongming? Are you okay?"
"whee……"
Little Chongming waited for a long time, and finally got attention. He kicked hard inside the egg.
“Crack!”
The golden dragon egg suddenly exploded into four cracks, and the broken eggshell splashed in all directions like a blooming golden lotus.
Amid the flying golden fragments, a little fellow with crystal dragon horns appeared before his eyes.
He was about the size of a one-year-old child, with a round face that still had some baby fat, and fine dragon scale patterns faintly visible on his fair skin.
The chubby little feet are in a cross-legged position, and a small tail covered with light golden scales is swaying restlessly from side to side behind it.
The most eye-catching thing was the pair of small dragon horns on his forehead, which were shining with jade under the light. As he raised his head to look at Lu Yunsheng, the dragon horns trembled slightly, shaking off a few tiny golden rays of light.
The half-dragon, half-human little fellow blinked his amber pupils and grinned, revealing two pointed little fangs: "Mother!"
