Lu Jingzhi nodded silently, but his originally bright eyes now looked a little dim.
He walked slowly into the house with heavy steps and a heart full of melancholy.
Looking at Lu Jingzhi's back as he walked away, Old Lady Mu and Mu Jin looked at each other.
The two of them sighed deeply again at the same time, but neither of them stood up and followed Lu Jingzhi into the house. They just sat quietly under the shed in the yard.
With a creaking sound.
The door was slowly pushed open with a dull sound.
Lu Jingzhi walked into the room.
When his eyes fell on the bed, his whole body seemed to freeze in place.
I saw her lying quietly on the bed, wearing a dress as white as snow, like a flower quietly falling into the earth, exuding a heartbreaking beauty.
That pretty face that is always full of agility and liveliness is still beautiful at this moment.
But it has lost its former rosy color, replaced by a pale and haggard look.
Lu Jingzhi's vision gradually became blurred, and a thin layer of mist quickly spread, blurring his eyes.
He walked slowly to the bed, his legs feeling as heavy as if they were filled with lead.
Finally, he sat down, leaned forward slightly, and stared at the person on the bed who had been haunting him.
He opened his lips slightly, wanting to say something, but his throat seemed to be tightly gripped by an invisible hand, and he couldn't utter a single word.
Tears flowed uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes, streamed down her cheeks, and dripped onto the bed sheets.
All the memories of my past time with her came flooding back to my mind, and those happy laughter, sweet and warm scenes kept flashing in my mind.
He stretched out his right hand and gently held Yan An's little hands, which had already become cold.
Lu Jingzhi just held her hand silently and looked at her motionlessly. Time seemed to stop at this moment.
The whole room was so quiet that only Lu Jingzhi's soft sobs could be heard, and the sound echoed in the silent air.
The setting sun was as red as blood, as if an overturned bottle of paint had been poured across the entire sky and earth, dyeing everything scarlet.
The afterglow shines sparsely through the gaps between the mottled leaves.
Mu Jin, who wanted to ask about Lu Cheng's current situation, stood outside the house, waiting for Lu Jingzhi to come out.
However, time passed by minute by minute, but he still did not show up.
Finally, unable to suppress her worries, she stepped into the house.
As soon as he stepped into the room, Mu Jin was stunned by the scene in front of him.
I saw Lu Jingzhi curled up beside the bed, his head resting on Yan An's shoulder, sleeping soundly.
Looking at his peaceful face, Mu Jin's original intention to wake him up disappeared in an instant.
So, she turned around and quietly left the room, slowly walking towards the mansion at the foot of the mountain...
Night falls quietly and the sky is gradually shrouded in darkness.
At the same time, a drizzle of rain began to fall.
Raindrops fell from the clouds like pearls with broken strings, hitting the tiles on the roof, making a ticking, ticking, ticking sound.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Jingzhi slowly woke up.
He opened his eyes, and the first thing that caught his eye was the flickering candlelight on the table.
The dim candlelight illuminates everything around, making the room appear particularly warm and peaceful.
Thinking back to the sleep I just had, I was not disturbed by nightmares like last time, and I feel refreshed now.
At this moment, a slightly old voice suddenly came into his ears.
"Are you awake?"
Lu Jingzhi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Old Mrs. Mu hunched over with her head lowered, skillfully sewing with her hands.
The weather-beaten face looked even more kind and amiable in the candlelight.
"Great-grandmother."
Old Lady Mu slowly raised her head and asked, "Well, are you hungry?"
"I made chicken soup especially for you."
"I'll go scoop some for you to try." As she said that, she stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Lu Jing subconsciously touched his belly and said, "Grandma, I'm actually already at the Xuanhuang realm now."
“I can practice fasting and no longer need to rely on food to fill my stomach.”
Because after reaching this level, one can use the powerful Xuan Qi in the body to replace the energy and nutrients provided by food.
However, Old Lady Mu shook her head disapprovingly, stopped and turned around.
"So what even if it's the Xuanhuang realm?"
"We still have to eat. If we miss out on all the delicious food in the world, what fun will there be in life?" After saying that, she continued walking towards the kitchen.
