The reception room on the first floor of Hongye Villa:
"Would you like tea?"
Fang Rui, who was sitting at the main seat in the simple and bright living room, symbolically picked up a bottle of tea and asked.
"What happened after I fell asleep?"
Lan Ruoqiao stood straight at the door and urged in a cold tone.
She was obviously angry and didn't even bother to sit down face to face with Fang Rui.
"There is no need for you to be so indifferent to me. I have no ill intentions towards you. You should be able to sense this."
"My perception may not be 100% correct. What's more, the lack of malice doesn't mean that you don't have other thoughts that offend me. For example, I trust you, but you betrayed my trust and snooped into my secrets."
Lan Ruoqiao said with an angry tone.
She rarely develops a liking for someone upon meeting, let alone trusts a person upon meeting.
Fang Rui is considered the first.
So Fang Rui's betrayal made her even more angry.
"I do want to apologize to you for this." Fang Rui admitted Lan Ruoqiao's accusation and took the initiative to apologize:
"I'm sorry, I betrayed your trust..."
"I didn't come here to hear what you said. Tell me, what happened last night?! Did you untie my birth cloth?!"
Lan Ruoqiao's tone remained cold, not changing at all because of Fang Rui's apology.
"Have I solved it? Shouldn't you already have the answer in your mind?"
"You...how dare you?!"
Lan Ruoqiao clenched her fists, her body trembled slightly, and the unique curse power in her body was running wildly.
She resisted the urge to attack Fang Rui and asked:
"Then what? What happened?! Did you..."
"I saw it! And I even talked to her. She is in very good condition!" Seeing that Lan Ruoqiao's condition seemed more unstable than he thought, Fang Rui decisively chose to answer, and before the former ran away, he took the
Take out a USB disk and say:
"I even recorded it! If you don't believe it, there is video to prove it!"
"Video?! You mean you recorded her?!" Lan Ruoqiao was stunned, and the violent aura on her body suddenly stopped.
"Yes!" Fang Rui nodded and struck while the iron was hot:
"You should really want to see her, right? She is in really good condition. Nothing you were worried about has happened!"
"I...she..." Lan Ruoqiao bit her lip and lowered her head, digging her fingernails into her palms tightly, as if she was having a painful inner struggle.
Seeing that Lan Ruoqiao seemed to be unable to make a decision, Fang Rui decisively inserted the USB flash drive into the projector.
Not only does he want to strike while the iron is hot, he also wants to add fire!
"Aren't you afraid of me?"
As the projector was turned on, an ethereal voice sounded in the reception room.
After hearing this voice, Lan Ruoqiao felt as if she had been electrocuted, and her whole body trembled violently.
"Is this voice familiar? Do you really not want to meet her?"
Fang Rui pressed pause at the right moment to remind him.
"me……"
Lan Ruoqiao's chest was violently bullied, and her mood was obviously extremely unstable.
"If I really feel embarrassed, I can turn off the video."
"No! Don't close it! I want to see you!"
Fang Rui's strategy of retreating in order to advance paid off, and Lan Ruoqiao made her decision instantly.
She directly grabbed her blindfold with her hand, as if ready to tear it off.
"If you can't pull it off, can I help you untie it?"
Fang Rui reminded him loudly, and then something unexpected happened to him.
As soon as he finished speaking, before he could make any move, Lan Ruoqiao walked quickly in front of him.
Obviously the latter is not willing to wait even a second.
Fang Rui quickly took off the blindfold and pressed the play button.
"Why should I be afraid of you?"
"In my impression, everyone seems to be afraid of me..."
…
While the video was playing, Lan Ruoqiao clenched her fists and stared at the video intently, while Fang Rui stared at Lan Ruoqiao's profile.
Contrary to her white hair state, her pupils are now pure white, giving the impression that she has no pupils but only the whites of her eyes.
But her eyes, which were like flaws, did not affect the beauty of her facial features at all. Even this kind of flaws based on the beauty, in turn, gave Lan Ruoqiao a pitiful beauty, making people feel
I couldn't help but want to protect her.
Especially now, because of the video playing, the corners of her eyes were red and her body was shaking uncontrollably, which doubled the impulse of bystanders to protect her.
At least Fang Rui felt like he couldn't move his eyes away, for fear of missing any moment when Lan Ruoqiao needed help.
"Ruoxi..."
Because the video was shot from across the dining table, when Bai-haired Lan Ruoqiao started to eat, her face appeared on the video for the first time.
Seeing this, Lan Ruoqiao couldn't help but stretched out her hand and gently placed it on the screen. Tears couldn't stop overflowing from the corners of her eyes.
"Eat slowly! What should you do if you choke?"
"Is it so delicious? You wolfed it down, and you don't look like a lady at all."
"Why did he bribe you when he gave you a little food, you silly girl! Have you never eaten anything delicious?"
"Huh? Do you like crispy vegetables as much as I do?"
"Haha, I also think that ripe tomatoes are not delicious, but raw ones are delicious."
…
It seemed that Lan Ruoqiao was completely immersed in the video. While she was crying, Lan Ruoqiao was either frowning, puckering her lips, gritting her teeth, or grinning like the one in the video. It was impossible to hear her.
The white-haired girl was talking about what she was talking about.
Because Fang Rui recorded the entire process from when Bai-haired Lan Ruoqiao woke up to when she was unconscious, the video was quite long.
But this seemed like a long time to Fang Rui, but to Lan Ruoqiao, it seemed too short.
"Gone?!"
"kindness."
"Play it again!"
"good."
…
This conversation occurred four times.
In other words, Lan Ruoqiao watched this rather long video five times.
"Do you really don't need to play it again?"
Fang Rui opened his mouth to confirm.
"Yes." Lan Ruoqiao nodded, her eyes seemed to be welded shut, staring motionlessly at the screen, where the white-haired Lan Ruoqiao's bright smile was frozen before she fell into coma.
"Her name is Lan Ruoxi, right?"
"Um."
"She's your sister, right?"
"kindness."
"You haven't seen her for a long time, right?"
"kindness."
"Your thick worldly cloth, in addition to practicing cultivation, is also to seal her, because your father told you that she is very fragile and cannot come out casually, otherwise her life will be in danger, right?"
"..." Lan Ruoqiao hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
"Then if I told you now that your father lied to you, would you believe it?"
Fang Rui continued to ask.
But this time he didn't wait for Lan Ruoqiao's response.
"How do you know this?"
After an unknown amount of time, Lan Ruoqiao finally turned her white eyes with imperfect beauty to Fang Rui.
"You told me yourself."
"Me?" Lan Ruoqiao was stunned, her beautiful face full of doubts.
"Yes, do you remember that I once told you that we had a fate in our previous life?"
"Remember."
"That's true. In my previous life, I was very familiar with you when I was twenty-four. In a conversation, you told me that the biggest regret in your heart was your sister Lan Ruoxi."
"So, you came back from the future to help me?"
"I did come back from the future, but I came back from the future not to help you, but to take revenge."
Looking at Lan Ruoqiao's beautiful and confused face, Fang Rui confessed for the first time the biggest secret in his heart - his identity as a reborn person.
"What you said is very fantasy, but I think it is true."
"Yes, this is why I chose to tell you. Your eyes can see through all my lies, and they can also help you and help me confirm some words that I can't easily prove myself.
Therefore, I believe that even if no one in the whole world believes that I am a reborn person and a person from the future, you will still believe it.
Because I can't deceive your eyes."
"You can't say that." Lan Ruoqiao shook her head and said with some confusion:
"Before today, I might have been confident that my eyes could see through everything, but now I'm not sure. After all, if you want me to believe that you have returned to the present from the future, I might as well believe that there is something wrong with my eyes.
Wrong person."
"Then how did I know your secret?"
"I don't know, maybe you have some means to search other people's memories? You have so many secrets, it's not surprising to have such a means, and it will be more reliable than the claim that you are from the future."
"Yeah?"
Fang Rui suddenly grabbed Lan Ruoqiao's shoulders, looked directly into the latter's white eyes and said:
"Do you really not know, or are you unwilling to believe it?"
"Why wouldn't I want to believe it?"
Lan Ruoqiao struggled briefly and found that she couldn't get away at all, so she had no choice but to move her eyes away.
"Because if I really am from the future, it means that the person you are closest to and trust the most has lied to you."
"I don't know what you're talking about! Let me go!"
"You are a C-level consummator, and I am a D-level. If you are determined in your heart, there is no way you can't break free from my hands."
"You..." Lan Ruoqiao struggled again, but found that she still couldn't break free from Fang Rui's control.
"It's useless." Fang Rui shook his head and explained:
"Your eyes have the ability to see through lies, and they are also the source of your strength. When you deceive yourself, you will not get its recognition, and naturally you will not be able to get the power you deserve from it.
Admit it, you have actually approved what I said, but you just don’t want to believe it is true, right?"
Fang Rui's attitude is very tough because he understands Lan Ruoqiao and does not want Lan Ruoqiao to choose to deceive herself and others.
"No, no, no! There is no reason why my father would lie to me." Lan Ruoqiao still didn't want to believe what Fang Rui said.
"Then Ruoxi will deceive you?" Fang Rui took out his trump card.
"What?"
"In the video, is Lan Ruoxi's smile you see fake? Is she really weak? Does she really look like her life is in danger?"
"I don't know..." Lan Ruoqiao shook her head blankly.
"You can continue to act stupid, as long as you don't mind continuing to seal that bright smile under the thick cloth of worldliness, and let your sister stay in the never-ending darkness until she dies!"
"Death?!" After hearing this word, Lan Ruoqiao was stunned. She widened her pure white eyes and said:
"You mean if this continues, Ruo Xi will die?"
"Yes! This is also the fact you told me yourself!" Fang Rui nodded heavily.
