Rong Xu had no interest in being the monkey being watched, so he grabbed Lu Qingyan's hand and ran out of the crowd, turning into an alley.
"Tsk tsk tsk," Lu Qingyan showed no panic whatsoever, turning her wrist, which was aching from Rong Xu's grip, and said lazily, "What, did I hit the nail on the head? This young lady has no interest in an ugly monster like you!"
"Me, ugly?" Rong Xu asked incredulously, his voice heavy. He had never been called ugly before; everyone had always praised his handsome appearance.
Lu Qingyan took a step back, looking at Rong Xu warily, and suddenly said, "Young Master, would you like to know where the person who looks exactly like me is?"
"Where...where?" Rong Xu asked, his voice trembling slightly.
"She? She's dead." Lu Qingyan laughed loudly and ran a few steps away.
Rong Xu acted even faster. She stepped forward, grabbed Lu Qingyan's hand, and pressed her for an answer: "Tell me quickly, how did she die? How could she die?"
Rong Xu prayed silently that the person wasn't Lu Qingsi, but Lu Qingyan laughed and said, "Why wouldn't she die? Let me tell you, she's my great-aunt, the one who was abandoned back then. Our family abandoned her in the middle of nowhere a long time ago. There was no one there. She was only a few months old then, how could she not die?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Rong Xu stopped her. In his opinion, the woman in front of him was just going crazy and had no idea where Lu Qingsi was.
Ke Rongxu couldn't help but recall what Lu Qingsi had told him about her background. She was the child that Lu's mother had picked up from the riverbank. No one knew who her parents were, just like herself and her brother, who only knew they had a master.
Auntie, that was obviously many years ago. Rong Xu couldn't help but suspect that the person in front of him was related to "Lu Qingsi".
"What's your name?" Rong Xu asked.
Lu Qingyan giggled and reached out to draw circles on Rong Xu's chest, but he dodged her.
"Young master, why are you hiding?" Lu Qingyan said with dissatisfaction, "You've already asked my name, aren't you planning to marry me?"
"You've misunderstood," Rong Xu said coldly.
"I didn't misunderstand. I saw a young master and a lady doing the same thing on the street before," Lu Qingyan said innocently, but the allure between her brows was impossible to hide.
Rong Xu stared at that familiar face, noticing a different expression on her face, and was momentarily stunned.
If Lu Qingsi didn't have that birthmark on her face, she would look just like this after marrying me, right?
Rong Xu stared blankly into the distance, her throat dry. She asked, "Why did you abandon that child back then? She was so young..."
At that time, "Lu Qingsi" was really, really small, so small that her life could be ended with just a little force.
How could these people be so heartless?
"Her?" Lu Qingyan replied nonchalantly, "wasn't it because she was too ugly back then? She had a birthmark on her face, which looked unlucky. Wouldn't it be an eyesore to have her at home?"
"Enough!" Rong Xu interrupted Lu Qingyan, slamming his fist against the stone wall beside him. He didn't use any spiritual energy, yet blood seeped from his hand.
Rong Xu said, "Get lost!"
He was afraid to stay any longer, and couldn't help but kill her with a single blow.
Lu Qingyan walked out from that direction, and once Rong Xu was out of sight, she leaned against the wall and burst into loud laughter. Hahaha, it was just a made-up story; I never expected Rong Xu to actually believe it.
