Tu Luoxue was conflicted.
She had finally been able to be with Yanluo openly, but ever since that night, she had been wondering if it was really the right thing to do.
Because of her selfishness, Tu Luoxue hurt Yanluo and Su Qing's relationship (which actually didn't), and no matter how Su Qing explained, Tu Luoxue was stuck in a rut and couldn't get out.
Tu Luoxue was in great agony.
She had considered ending her feelings for Yanluo, but she just couldn't bear to.
After learning of her thoughts, Lu Jiajing and An Qiuxi spent the whole night trying to comfort her, and in the end, they both told An Qiuxi.
"Why don't you ask your brother what he thinks? If you're the only one who wants to end this, wouldn't that be hurting him?"
With these words in mind, Tu Luoxue slept until noon. When she woke up, Lu Jiajing and An Qiuxi were no longer by her side, presumably having woken up and left the room.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Tu Luoxue said, "Come in," and Yan Luo entered. His eyes were always gentle.
"You're awake? I was about to wake you up. Lunch is ready. Piggy made lots of delicious food."
Tu Luoxue didn't know how to face Yan Luo. When she saw Yan Luo, she forgot all about what Lu Jiajing and An Qiuxi had said the night before.
She nodded and said to Yanluo, "I need to change my clothes. Can you go out first?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Luo said "okay" and left the room to go downstairs to wait for Tu Luoxue.
Tu Luoxue slowly unbuttoned her pajamas one button at a time, her chaotic thoughts making her movements slow. Her snow-white hair cascaded down her back, and her pajamas fell to the floor.
After taking off all her clothes, she took out a white top and a blue skirt from the closet, put them on, and tied her hair up. She was preparing to wash up later.
When Tu Luoxue went downstairs, she noticed that several girls were missing from the dining table. Upon asking, she learned that Tu Keke and the other four girls had gone shopping and hadn't returned for lunch.
Seeing that Xue'er looked a little pale, Su Qing asked worriedly, "Xue'er, did you not sleep well last night? Or are you feeling unwell?"
Tu Luoxue shook her head slightly, saying she was fine. She took the food Yan Tusheng gave her and sat down to enjoy lunch with everyone.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was harmonious, with everyone chatting and laughing. Zhang Chuchu recounted the various embarrassing stories of the three brothers. When she heard about Yan Luo's embarrassing history, Qin Jinwen laughed non-stop, Zhu Qinlan covered her face and laughed, and even Li Lingzhou had a smile on his face.
Tu Luoxue listened attentively; she always took things about Yanluo's affairs too seriously.
Perhaps it was a long-standing habit, but when Yanli was around, she would often mention her proud younger brother, and Tu Luoxue would listen attentively, just as she did now.
Tu Yi'er sat on Yan Luo's lap, listening to Yan Luo's story, and she also ate and laughed.
After lunch, Su Qing, having arranged to meet Qian Lisha, took Zhang Chuchu and Qin Jinyang out, and also abducted Tu Yier, with Xu Yang and Chu Hang acting as bodyguards.
Qin Jinwen and his two companions decided to visit Fan Wujiu and Shangguan Wanying, and Fan Qianning and Xie Huai'an naturally went along.
Yanluo and Tu Luoxue, who had been pushed out of their home by Lu Jiajing and An Qiuxi, stood in front of the courtyard gate in a daze. Looking at the closed door not far away, Yanluo chuckled and turned to look at Tu Luoxue.
"Xue'er, let's go on a date!"
Tu Luoxue kept her head down and did not respond, so Yanluo took her hand and led her away in front of the courtyard gate.
Guoan Temple.
This is where Yanluo and Tu Luoxue came from a date. Tu Luoxue drew a fortune stick here.
The interpretation of the fortune slip was not good at the time, and Tu Luoxue was very bothered by it.
This was the first time she had been so shocked by Yan Luo's methods. How could she have appeared here so instantly? After the shock came confusion. She didn't understand why Yan Luo had brought her here.
Yan Luo and Tu Luoxue exchanged glances, and Yan Luo asked, "Last time we came here, could you tell me the result of your fortune telling?"
Tu Luoxue recalled the monk's interpretation from that day.
"I won the lottery."
"The sunset glows and the lone wild goose flies together; the autumn waters blend with the vast sky."
"Loneliness and isolation make it unsuitable for advancement; success will come when the time is right."
"It is not advisable for you to be proactive at the moment. Please wait for the right opportunity, or a time of harmony and fulfillment may come."
"If you draw this divination slip, you are currently lacking in good fortune and may inevitably experience setbacks."
"Asking about fate, it's unlikely to happen."
The light in her eyes dimmed slightly, and her once bright and dazzling amber eyes were no longer the same.
Tu Luoxue smiled bitterly and said to Yan Luo, "Is it that important?"
Yan Luo felt a pang of heartache as he looked at the girl. He reached out to touch Tu Luoxue's face, but Tu Luoxue took a step back and dodged him.
Seeing Yan Luo's hand halfway out, Tu Luoxue realized her actions, and her lips trembled.
"I, I'm not..."
Yanluo didn't let her continue, but instead took a step forward and hugged the girl.
"I know, I'm clear about it."
"Your thoughts and feelings, your worries and sorrows."
"The result of the divination is not important. It's all up to us. Everything has already happened, so there's no need to overthink it. I'm here, I've always been here."
Yan Luo's voice was more delicate and gentle than ever before. After hearing these words, Tu Luoxue's heart skipped a beat. She looked up and met Yan Luo's gaze with a shocked look.
But she saw the love in the young man's eyes.
Is that so? Oh, I see...
Tu Luoxue inwardly mocked herself, always talking about her feelings for Yanluo, but never about Yanluo's feelings for her. She didn't even know what Yanluo thought of her.
But now, as the girl looked directly into the young man's dark red eyes, she finally understood.
Tu Luoxue's tears flowed uncontrollably, and even her blurred vision couldn't stop her from clearly seeing the love in Yanluo's eyes.
Yan Luo hugged her tightly. As the spring breeze blew by, he cupped Tu Luoxue's face and gently pressed his lips to the white-haired girl's soft lips.
Words are a bridge for progress, but they are merely icing on the cake for two people who understand each other.
Yanluo and Tu Luoxue no longer needed to have many conversations to confirm each other's feelings for each other. The emotions conveyed in their kiss brought Tu Luoxue peace of mind.
Tu Luoxue told Yanluo all her thoughts, and the two sat on a stone bench under a tree. After listening to everything, Yanluo simply patted Tu Luoxue's head.
"Silly girl."
"Ah Qing is a good girl. I'm selfish just like you. I don't want to give up on everyone who loves me and everyone I love. So, let's work together to make up for what's to come, okay?"
Tu Luoxue's throat tightened, and after a pause, she replied, "Okay."
On the branch, a four-colored bird quietly disappeared. Tu Keke suddenly laughed, startling Man Sui beside her.
The three young girls and the Blade & Soul sisters spent the morning shopping. After lunch, they went to buy stationery. While picking out notebooks, Man Sui asked Tu Keke what was wrong.
Tu Keke shook her head and said, "I just suddenly remembered something funny."
