I got tired of lying in the house, so I went up to the roof and lay down on it.
With a blade of grass dangling from my mouth and my legs crossed, I admired the splendor of hell.
Before, I thought I would see a lot of ghosts in hell, but there are hardly any ghosts here in Lanqi.
It was extremely deserted.
"Nü Xin." The cool voice immediately told me it was Lan Qi.
I've noticed that every time Lan Qi blushes, several days later she'll reappear in front of me.
With my eyes closed, I lazily replied, "I told you, don't call me Nvxin, call me Linlu."
Lan Qi stopped talking, and then I felt as if someone was lying down next to me.
When I opened my eyes, it was indeed Lan Qi.
I chuckled self-deprecatingly, then looked up at the sky.
If this were a room, lying inside and watching the stars would indeed be quite romantic.
But this is hell, the sky above is shrouded in mist.
"I thought about it for a long time after I got back." Lan Qi's tone was still cold, but it contained a hint of emotion that was different from usual.
I sensed something was amiss and turned my head to look at Lan Qi's face.
I swallowed hard. Was this guy going to confess his feelings?!
I quickly got up. "Oh dear, it's a bit cold on the roof."
The next second, Lan Qi pressed me back down.
Fine, he is indeed strong, and I can't fight back.
So he lay back on the roof and silently prayed that it wasn't a confession of love.
"I haven't told Youyuan about your presence in Hell yet."
It hasn't been said yet, which is strange, I don't want to see Youyuan either.
Lan Qi paused for a long time before continuing, "You said you wanted to be with me, I..."
I absolutely disagree.
"I want to try it."
Well, I don't know what to say for a moment. I just want to turn back time and slap my past self a couple of times.
If you want me to flirt with him randomly, well, I never expected Lan Qi to be so naive and easily fooled.
I thought, it's an ancient relic, probably not that innocent, right?!
Could it be that he really became stupid from hell?!
I was silently complaining in my mind when Lan Qi suddenly flipped over and pinned me down.
Hell is dark, and there are no stars overhead.
Lan Qi's fair face is, to be honest, quite pretty.
I blinked my cigarette as I looked at Lan Qi in front of me, wondering if he was going to kiss me.
Yeah, he's handsome too, so let's kiss.
Lan Qi's eyes were fixed intently on my face, as if trying to imprint me in his mind.
Lan Qi looked at me for a long time, then suddenly pulled me into his arms, rested his chin on my shoulder, and said, "I shouldn't have brought you back in the first place."
I suddenly laughed. "Regret it now, don't you?"
Lan Qi's muffled voice came through, "No regrets."
Since that day, Lan Qi seems to have become unusually free, spending his days hovering around me.
They try different things to make me happy every day.
As for what happened outside, Lan Qi never mentioned it, and I never asked about it either.
I didn't want to know anything about Youyuan, and I forced myself to forget all of this.
"Lin Lu." Lan Qi's voice came closer, "Look what this is."
At my request, Lan Qi never called me Nv Xin again, but always called me Lin Lu.
Yes, Lin Lu is the real me. That noble and powerful goddess Nv Xin is not me at all.
"What did you bring?" I looked up and saw the cute thing in Lan Qi's hand.
"Wow, a puppy." I immediately took the puppy from Lan Qi's hands.
Girls always have a soft spot for furry little animals.
"Hmm, do you like it?" Lan Qi looked at me with tender eyes.
"I like it." I nodded slightly and went to play with the puppy in my arms.
This dog is pure white all over, with short legs, a cute, tiger-like face.
"Let's choose a name." Lan Qi looked at me expectantly.
"Let's name it Snow White." The puppy's fur was as white as snow.
"Does it sound good?"
"It sounds nice," Lan Qi replied with a smile.
The once aloof and cold Lan Qi seemed to have become a completely different person.
Is it really true that a person's first impression is completely different from how they are after you get to know them?
"What does he want to eat?" I teased the puppy, because it seemed like there wasn't much food for Lan Qi.
"Let's eat meat."
It seems like we have to cook meat? That's a bit of a hassle. It's better to just buy some dog food or dog treats and bring them back.
"Let's go to the human world to buy dog food."
"Go to the human world?!" Lan Qi was slightly taken aback.
"Um."
"Can't you go?"
"Can."
"Let's go then." With that, I picked up the puppy.
Lan Qi and I returned to the human world. Lan Qi's sea-blue hair and outstanding appearance were particularly eye-catching.
However, Lan Qi himself did not care. He exuded a chilling aura, making people only glance at him once and not dare to look at him a second time.
I followed Lan Qi as we wandered around the city looking for a pet store.
Actually, it would be easy to go directly to a pet store, but I mainly wanted to wander around the human world a bit more.
"Lan Qi, did you notice?" I chuckled and nudged Lan Qi's arm.
"What did you find?" Lan Qi turned to look at me.
When Lan Qi looked at me, the chill around him lessened considerably, and he even seemed somewhat gentle.
"Didn't you notice a lot of girls looking at you?" I chuckled, covering my mouth.
Lan Qi frowned and glanced around. "I didn't find anything."
I chatted and laughed with Lan Qi the whole way, and the little puppy in my arms was unusually well-behaved.
"Xin'er!" I suddenly vaguely heard Youyuan's voice.
My smile faltered, and I shook my head. It must be an auditory hallucination.
I ignored it and continued talking to Lan Qi.
"Xin'er!" The next second, Youyuan appeared in front of me.
It had been a long time since I'd seen You Yuan, and he didn't look well. His eye sockets were even a little bluish, and there were bloodshot veins in his eyes.
Lan Qi stood protectively in front of me, emanating the same chill I felt when I first met him.
"The Emperor of Fengdu?" You Yuan was slightly taken aback when he saw Lan Qi.
"I wonder why the Emperor of Fengdu took my wife away?" You Yuan's tone was unfriendly.
"Madam?" Lan Qi's cold voice revealed no emotion, only a chill that inexplicably ran through people. "Lin Lu said she has nothing to do with you."
"Lin Lu?" You Yuan's expression stiffened, but he quickly realized something. "You heard everything?"
I ignored Youyuan's question and simply lowered my eyes. "Youyuan, let's cut ties completely. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other."
I never expected to run into You Yuan on my trip to the mortal realm. Could it really be a karmic entanglement?
I grabbed Lan Qi and prepared to leave.
You Yuan, however, refused to give up and continued to block our way. "Xin'er, let me explain!"
I was furious. They clearly know I'm not a girl, yet they keep calling me "Xin'er"?! Are they just trying to disgust me?
"My name isn't Xin'er!" I shouted.
You Yuan paused slightly, then changed his words to "Lin Lu".
I ignored You Yuan and threw myself into Lan Qi's arms, asking him to take me away.
I know that with Lan Qi's abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for him to get me out of here.
"Okay." Lan Qi hugged me and immediately shook off You Yuan.
After I followed Lan Qi back to Hell, I got out of Lan Qi's arms.
"Thanks."
