Emperor Shitian had actually climbed to a higher floor of the Nine Spirits Pagoda before?
But why have I never heard him say that before?
and--
"The elders said that in recent years, no one has gone up to the fifth floor of Jiuling Pagoda. If you had ever been to a higher floor, there should have been quite a stir..."
Ye Xiyue murmured.
This seems to be hard to explain clearly.
Emperor Shitian paused, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was caught in some long-standing memory.
Immediately, the corners of his lips raised and his voice was lazy:
"It happened a long time ago, and the situation was relatively complicated at that time. The Nine Spirit Pagoda did not cause much fluctuation, so very few people know that I have been here. Even the elders of Nanshan College probably don't know."
"But that time I entered the Nine Spirits Pagoda, it was purely accidental, and I left quickly. Before today, I didn't know that there was such a secret hidden in the Nine Spirits Pagoda."
He said it in an understatement, but to Ye Xiyue's ears, it was like a sudden thunder, which made her unable to recover for a long time.
She looked at him carefully and found that when he mentioned this matter, he was not interested in it. There was an undercurrent surging deep in his eyes, as if he didn't want to say more.
That probably... was not a good memory for him.
Ye Xiyue moved her lips, and finally swallowed all the questions in her throat.
If he wanted to say something, he would naturally tell her. Since he didn't want to say it, she wouldn't ask.
So, after thinking for a moment, she nodded:
"I see. But in this case, if you want to go to the fifth floor in the future, you have to pay more attention."
Once someone notices something is wrong, I'm afraid it will cause some unnecessary trouble.
When Emperor Shitian heard this, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at her deeply.
"Of course I know this. But, Xi'er, don't you have anything else to ask?"
She should be quite curious about the Nine Spirit Pagoda and his past.
Ye Xiyue laughed, her eyebrows arched.
"If you want to say something, of course I'm all ears."
Emperor Shitian looked at her steadily, with a smile on his eyes and brows.
He bent down, gently brushed her cheek with one hand, looked into her eyes seriously, and whispered:
"It's not that I don't want to talk to Xi'er, but what happened back then was quite complicated and I can't explain it clearly in a sentence or two. Today is not a good time. I will tell you in detail when the elite meeting is over and I have some free time. Now,
Have a good rest, you know?"
Ye Xiyue nodded.
Since she likes a person, she will naturally trust him wholeheartedly and will never rely on her own assumptions to make all kinds of guesses and doubts.
Emperor Shitian looked at her bright and clear eyes, as clean as the brightest starry night. When she looked at him, she was so pure and firm.
Two small figures were reflected inside - it was him.
His heart moved, and he finally couldn't help but leaned forward and kissed her lips.
The slightly cool and soft lips seemed to carry a rich and fragrant scent, and as soon as they came close, they fell uncontrollably.
There is no one more beautiful than his girl in this world.
After a while, thinking that she was injured and had to participate in the elite competition finals tomorrow, he was able to regain his sense and let go of her lips.
The pale moonlight shone down, making her eyes shine more and more, and her lips were moist.
His Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was deep and hoarse:
"My dear Xi'er, go to sleep, I'll be here to watch over you."
