Chapter 143 You are my lover...
Dongfang Qi shook his head violently, trying to drive away the romantic thoughts in his mind - how could he take advantage of her when she was so drunk?
But then he remembered that she had divorced, and the shackles between uncle and sister-in-law had been broken. The hug at this moment was just to protect her.
Thinking of this, he tightened his grip on her arms. The scent of her makeup lingered around his nose, mixed with a hint of alcohol, which was particularly alluring.
He softened his voice and whispered in her ear, "Don't climb through the window, okay? It's safe in the carriage. I'll accompany you wherever you want to go. Okay, Yueyue?"
Maybe it was because the tone was too soft, or maybe the word "Yueyue" touched something.
Her eyelashes trembled, and she shrank into his arms like a docile kitten, her voice filled with grievance: "Master, I finally found you. Master, I missed you so much..."
She had been calling out "Master" since a while ago. Dongfang Qi suddenly thought and asked, "Who is your Master?"
"Master..." She smiled sweetly, like an innocent child, "Master is Master... hehe..."
Dongfang Qi then asked, "What's your master's name and where does he live? I need to know the details so I can help you."
He had a simple idea, believing that this was the master Lin Qingyue had adopted when she was young and living away from home. And judging by her current expression, she must be missing him very much. If that was the case, he would help her bring her master back, and be a filial son.
The childishness on Lin Qingyue's face faded away little by little, and a mist first filled her eyes, which then condensed into an unbreakable sorrow.
A tear fell silently.
"Master...he's dead..."
He died at the hands of those sanctimonious hypocrites, died under the torture of the red lotus fire, and even his soul was burned to ashes!
He's such a good person... He even brought back a wounded bird to treat it... How painful it must have been when it was bitten by the fire...
Later, she ignited the Red Lotus Karma Fire and personally felt the burning sensation of the flames... It really hurt...
But she didn't expect that Azhuo would come back.
That fool, she had clearly paved a way out for him, and he could have started over, but he insisted on jumping into the sea of fire.
The moment the crimson lotus fire licked his robe, the suffocating feeling of heartache gripped her again, just like when her master lost his life...
Burned to pieces, soul scatters.
The red lotus fire eventually burned everyone she cared about into ashes.
Ironically, she is alive again...
"Hahaha..." She suddenly burst into laughter, and then started crying while laughing.
This world is so absurd!
Why can't we keep the ones we love? Why do those who have committed heinous crimes and should have died long ago come back to life?
Is God playing tricks on her?
Dongfang Qi was startled by her sudden change of mood.
"Yueyue, what's wrong with you?" He held her face and frantically wiped the tears from her face. "Don't cry, I'm here. Master is always here."
He blurted out these words subconsciously.
Perhaps it was because he saw that she was sad about losing her master, so he would rather pretend to be her for a short time to soothe her confused emotions at the moment.
Or maybe it's just subconscious.
Lin Qingyue slowly raised her eyes, her vision blurred by tears.
At this moment, the carriage happened to drive into a long street with bright lights. The light shone through the gauze curtains onto the carriage and also onto Dongfang Qi's face.
Lin Qingyue's vision gradually became clearer, and the facial features of the man in front of her unconsciously overlapped with the person in her memory.
"Azhuo..."
Dongfang Qi froze. "What did you call me?"
Ah Zhuo, he remembered that was the name of his incarnation in the dream. How could she know?
Lin Qingyue did not answer, but stretched out her trembling hand, stroking his face, eyebrows, nose bridge, and finally landing on his lips: The person who I have been thinking about all my life, is finally back?
Wherever her fingertips passed, she easily touched his heartstrings.
"What did you call me? Who am I?" Dongfang Qi opened his mouth slightly and kissed her fingertips inadvertently.
"Who are you……"
The smell of alcohol brought back many memories. She vaguely remembered Ah Zhuo grabbing her wrist and asking, "Who am I in your eyes? Who do you see through my face?"
He was really angry later. He was angry that she treated him as the shadow of her master and that she said those hurtful words, so he ignored her for a long time.
But he didn't know that all those years of dependence and companionship had already left an indelible mark in her heart, which had nothing to do with others.
Unfortunately, the final fire consumed us so quickly that we had no time to say anything.
"You are, my love..."
The future and the honest voice of the heart were finally revealed to him at this moment, in the narrow compartment, in the ambiguous light and shadow.
Before Dongfang Qi could come to his senses, her slightly cool fingertips had already climbed up his neck, and her bright red lips kissed his lips unexpectedly.
The cold tears slid into my mouth and tongue, carrying with them the regrets of my past life, bitter and astringent.
"Yueyue...can't..."
Dongfang Qi whispered a low, dissuading tone, and at first he even turned his head slightly, trying to avoid her. But his composure only lasted a moment. The next moment, he suddenly raised his hand and grasped the back of her head, his palm pressed against her soft hair. With irresistible force, he pressed her towards him, fiercely deepening the kiss.
He was a gentleman of pure heart and few desires, and had spent over twenty years cultivating his character, exercising self-discipline and returning to propriety. To him, the beauty of women was like the wind brushing across his clothes, leaving no trace.
Until he met her, he couldn't look away. At first, he thought it was just a gesture of gratitude, but as time went on, that admiration quietly grew into a deep love. But his upbringing kept him from indulging, so he could only suppress all his feelings.
But during the few days of coma in the Red Shadow Land, the extremely luxurious dream actually aroused the desires in his heart.
When he looked at her again, he was no longer the self-disciplined and righteous gentleman. He was clearly a filthy and greedy villain who couldn't help but spy on her every move.
God knows how much willpower he needs to restrain those unreasonable thoughts.
At this moment, she took the initiative to move closer, which once again exploded the desire in her heart and her rationality collapsed.
He kissed her back madly, wishing he could rub her into his bones and blood, and swallow up all the remaining restraint he had.
until……
The carriage stopped and the guard's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, we're here."
His rationality returned and he suddenly let go of the person in his arms.
Her eyes were hazy, and she scolded with a bit of annoyance: "How dare you...you actually won't let me sleep!"
Dongfang Qi: "..."
What would happen if the guards outside heard this?
"Get out of the car, we're here." He quickly helped her straighten her crown and covered her clothes.
Lin Qingyue blinked: "Where...?"
Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she rushed out with a whoosh.
When Dongfang Qi chased after her, he saw her standing on the highest roof of Lan Garden. She said with great ambition, "Come on, join me in conquering this land! When you are alive, you should wake up to take control of the world and lie drunkenly on the lap of a beauty!"
The guards and servants around were so frightened by her bold words that they lowered their heads and remained silent, not daring to look at her any longer.
