At this moment, Long Shuiyao looked like a fairy who was untainted by the mortal world and suddenly descended into the world of fireworks.
That thin but stunning appearance gradually became clear in my eyes, and she was so beautiful!
She just looked at me with a smile. At that moment, I actually had the illusion that we hadn't seen each other for a long time!
My heart trembled slightly for no reason.
Then there was another burst of needle-pricking pain! It brought me back to reality from my trance.
Taking a deep breath, I also laughed.
"What a coincidence, you are here too?" I said.
Long Shuiyao looked at me deeply, with a touch of sadness and bitterness in his eyes.
"Master Ninth, can we have a chat?"
She seemed very cautious, as if she was afraid of my rejection.
"Of course, here?" I looked around.
The fat man coughed, quickly lowered his head, and winked at me.
Long Shuiyao's pretty face blushed slightly, and then looked towards the garden not far away: "Can you accompany me to the garden for a walk?"
I nodded, unable to refuse, nor did I want to refuse.
There are some things we need to understand between us after all.
After I wiped my hands with a wet towel, Long Shuiyao took the lead and walked towards the garden in the distance. I sighed secretly and followed her.
The garden path paved with cobblestones was deep and long. Long Shuiyao walked slowly in front of me, but did not speak for a long time.
A faint fragrance came over, it was the unique scent of Long Shuiyao, it was elegant and refined, and it still makes me a little intoxicated to this day.
The dim street lights shine down from the top of the head, through the messy treetops, and shine on the ground, mixing with the white moonlight, seemingly indistinguishable from each other but distinct.
Long Shuiyao suddenly slowed down, stood under the streetlight, and turned to look at me.
Under the light, a long shadow was drawn, making her figure more slender, and half of her body was turned golden, like an elf coming out of the darkness, like a beautiful picture.
I walked up to her and stopped, and we looked at each other.
I can't describe my mood at this moment, I can only feel my heart rising and falling gently.
"Master Ninth, are you okay?" Long Shuiyao finally broke the silence first.
"Very good, how about you?" I replied with a smile.
"I'm pretty good too, I don't have so much trouble!"
"That's good, just relax!"
"Maybe!"
After the simple greetings, there was a short silence.
None of us mentioned the incident in Kowloon City, let alone experienced the unpleasantness that had happened before. It was as if the incident had gone with the wind.
"I heard that you are going to the provincial capital?" Long Shuiyao spoke first.
"Yeah!" I nodded gently.
"When are you leaving?"
"tomorrow!"
Long Shuiyao said oh and nodded slightly.
"Will you come back?" she asked again.
"Yes!" I was a little unsure myself.
"When?" Long Shuiyao seemed to become very nervous.
"I don't know. Before that, I have to go to the Northeast first."
"What about Wang Shengli?"
"Well, I promised him!"
"Then are you sure about going to the Northeast this time?" Long Shuiyao's voice suddenly sounded worried.
I took a deep breath and did not answer Long Shuiyao's question.
The struggle between the North and the South has never stopped. This is a clear dividing line.
Now, I have crossed over, and I have crossed over blatantly. Through the mouths of the Zhao brothers, everyone in the eighth-level north knows about this. They cannot let me do anything on their territory so easily.
Grandpa once said that the Northern Faction also has old enemies of my Zhang family, enemies that even Grandpa warned against. They are obviously not ordinary characters and will definitely be more difficult to deal with than the Zhao brothers.
If I go to the north, I may not know what dangers await me, even if I die there.
But I can only keep all this in my heart, I can't say it out loud, and I don't know who to tell it to.
Long Shuiyao suddenly walked towards me slowly and stopped two meters away from me.
The faint fragrance is even more refreshing and smellable.
"Can you not go?" Long Shuiyao stared at me closely, she was a little nervous.
"Not going?" I shook my head, "I'm afraid not!"
"Why?"
"You know me, I don't want to break trust." I smiled bitterly.
"But I don't want anything to happen to you!"
Long Shuiyao took two steps forward and looked at me worriedly.
I looked into her eyes and sighed softly, my tone still firm, "You can't change what you promised to others!"
Long Shuiyao seemed to be a little disappointed and lowered his head, "You are still the same as before. Is it necessary to work so hard?"
This sentence made my heart stabbed suddenly. Yes, do I need to fight so hard?
There was another brief silence.
At this time, Long Shuiyao suddenly opened her satchel, took out a document and handed it to me.
I curiously took it and opened it to see that it was a real estate certificate with my name clearly written on it. I saw that the address was Kowloon City.
I couldn't help being slightly stunned, and looked up at Long Shuiyao. She was looking at me affectionately.
"Mr. Long, what does this mean?"
"This is what I left specially for you." Long Shuiyao said.
"Give me?"
"Yes, it's for you. The procedures have been completed! I'm looking for someone to decorate it!" Long Shuiyao said.
I was so surprised that I couldn't speak, and I was very touched.
At this moment, I felt her thoughts, and I suddenly felt that maybe I really shouldn't feel grudge anymore.
Taking a deep breath, I looked up at Long Shuiyao.
"I can't take no reward without merit."
I handed over the real estate certificate without hesitation, but Long Shuiyao did not accept it.
"Master Ninth, you have been a life-saving grace to our Long family, so what does a house mean to you?"
"Sorry, Mr. Long, thank you for your kindness. Although I helped you, you have already paid the corresponding reward, so you don't owe me anything!" I said with a frown.
Long Shuiyao seemed to have expected that I would say this, and suddenly took out another photo to show me. It was a photo taken from top to bottom. The photo was dimly lit, as if it was a small independent space, with a
A round thing, like a pillar, looks familiar to me.
"Master Ninth, this house is on the first floor. Below is the underground garage. The dragon-patterned pillar buried by the fourth master is under the house."
Long Shuiyao finally revealed the main purpose of giving me this house.
I raised my head suddenly and looked at Long Shuiyao complicatedly. Such a simple sentence struck a deep chord in my heart.
Long Shuiyao smiled and said, "I kept this building and the two buildings before and after it because I know you will definitely need it..."
Her expression was very careful, like a child who had made a mistake and wanted to make up for it.
At this moment, I suddenly discovered that even the smile on her face became sad and beautiful.
