Jiang Lusheng unknowingly followed Lan Shuang to her door, and was shocked when he came to his senses.
Lan Shuang came back before him, and a lamp suddenly lit up in the originally dark yard. It was hanging under the eaves and swaying in the wind.
It seemed like it was specially reserved for him, and it seemed like it was attracting him over.
Jiang Lusheng stood there for a while, was silent for a moment, took a step forward, but pulled it back before his foot touched the ground.
He looked at the gate deeply, then turned and left.
Lan Shuang stood in front of the window. Jiang Lusheng couldn't see him from this angle, but she could see everything clearly. She sighed regretfully, "Ah, I thought I could wait for a confession before the retreat. I could have confessed to him too. Why did he leave?"
888: "Could it be because it's too late and he doesn't want to disturb your rest?"
Lan Shuang shook her head: "I won't think about it if I don't come. I'll go to sleep. Starting tomorrow I will practice in seclusion and strive to make further progress before the secret realm begins."
…
The next day, Jiang Lusheng went to the top of the mountain to practice sword as usual. After waiting for a long time and seeing Lan Shuang not coming, he absent-mindedly made two mistakes in his moves. After making another mistake, he retracted his sword and quickly walked down the mountain.
Arriving at the gate of Lan Shuang's courtyard, the cleaning servant immediately stopped and saluted when he saw him, "Senior Brother Jiang."
Jiang Lusheng nodded and glanced at the closed courtyard door: "Why don't you go in and clean?"
The servant said shyly, "Junior Sister Lan is in seclusion, so it's not convenient for me to go in and clean."
"In seclusion?" Jiang Lusheng asked in surprise, "When?"
"It started today. What's wrong, Brother Jiang? What's the matter?"
"Nothing, you continue with your work, I'm leaving." Jiang Lusheng felt a little confused and didn't stay any longer.
The servant watched him leave and shook his head. "Brother Jiang also has such a rush. How strange."
…
As they walked along the mountain path, Jiang Lusheng couldn't help wondering why Lan Shuang had suddenly gone into seclusion. Why hadn't she told him? Was she angry with him? Because he hadn't been there last night, or because of that moment of warmth that had been interrupted on the mountaintop?
He couldn't figure it out and just felt very confused.
He definitely couldn't continue practicing swordplay, so he simply went to sit quietly under the waterfall, letting the rushing water wash over his body to calm him down.
The waterfall poured down, splashing water droplets as pure white as snow. When it hit Jiang Lusheng's naked upper body, it broke into water droplets, sliding down his shoulders and skin to the depths of the pool.
The sunlight illuminated the water droplets, making him look even whiter.
He sat for a while and looked down at the pool of water below. The water was clear, and even if there were splashes of waves, they would quickly recover. It was so clean that nothing could be hidden.
He stared blankly, and suddenly remembered his first meeting with Lan Shuang. Maybe it wasn't their first meeting, they might have met a long time ago, but they didn't know each other at that time, and they just passed by each other when they met. But because of this pond, they really had an intersection for the first time.
He noticed Lan Shuang the moment she fell into the pool, but his training was not yet finished and he could not move, so he did not go to help her. After all, the pool was very shallow and no one could drown.
But he didn't expect that she was injured. But when she pushed through the water and walked towards him, his heart was inexplicably confused, so when she spoke, he couldn't control himself and helped her heal her injury, and then he became more and more out of control.
At this point, he couldn't control it, nor did he want to control it. He had to ask his heart, what did he really want?
