Snow lilies swayed, their petals flying in the wind, surrounding Reed and Ahri. Under the gnarled Yunguo tree, Reed could no longer harden his heart and make a decision.
"Ahri, please don't do this kind of thing again in the future. How can I feel better if I see you in so much pain?"
Although he wants to change his attitude, after all, it has been this way for hundreds of years. It is difficult for Reid to change it immediately. There is still some preaching in his words.
However, in comparison, these words are still much more intimate and revealing than before. At least there is no obvious gap in seniority. This allows Ahri to accept it better and makes her no longer think that Reed is doing it on purpose.
He distanced himself from her so as to stop her thoughts.
"After this incident, I realized that all the past has been engraved in my soul. How can I throw it away in a hurry? I will never be like this again."
After she almost lost those precious memories, Ahri became more and more aware of the preciousness of those memories, and she now understands her own feelings more clearly.
"That's good, let's go."
Reed sighed in his heart, stood up and put Ahri down. Ahri's gaze was deep in the water, and his affectionate gaze really made him a little unbearable. In the past, he behaved well, sat upright, had no ghosts in his heart, and was naturally calm.
See it.
But now that he understands Ah Li's thoughts and is so deeply loved by this little fox, even though he is a piece of wood and has a heart of stone, it is difficult for him to ignore her and maintain the beauty and calmness in his heart.
Besides, Reed is not a dull person. Over the past tens of thousands of years, relying on his strong strength and friendship, he has been married to many girls. He is a passionate and romantic person, but how can he bear such deep-rooted love?
And when her heart is in a state of confusion, Ahri's inherent charm becomes even more deadly. Even Reed has to suppress the throbbing in his heart.
"Hmm~"
Ah Li responded softly. After all, she felt a little guilty about this matter, so naturally she would not say anything more to disobey Reed's intention. This time she was able to speak out what was in her heart, and she did not cause any trouble.
Reed's rebuttal made her feel that her trip was worthwhile.
Ahri's radiant eyes were tightly fixed on Reed's body. Her thoughts were so delicate and her control of emotions was natural. How could she not notice the change in Reed's attitude?
Woolen cloth?
It's just that she also knows the principle of overdoing is never enough, and the slow flow of water will last forever, so she just secretly chuckled silently in her heart, and did not really point it out, which made Reed embarrassed. Although this foxy girl has no emotional experience, she is very good at handling emotions.
But it is uniquely blessed.
"Are you leaving now?"
The witch gardener, who had the foresight to avoid them before, saw Reed and Ahri leaving, so he appeared again to say hello.
"Well, if there is a next time, please remember to give me a few words of advice. This Garden of Worry is too greedy and does not understand the importance, but you have to understand what you can touch and what you cannot touch."
Seeing the witch gardener appear, Reed didn't feel good about it. The old woman clearly recognized his presence from Ah Li's words, but she still acted in accordance with the rules and didn't even say hello to him. It was really a bit disrespectful.
, is it because his status in Ionia is not high enough?
"It's not Igeia's fault. I had to do it. Igeia persuaded me for a long time, and I insisted on it."
Hearing Reed's rude words, Ahri was a little embarrassed. She didn't want the witch gardener to be angered. After all, she was the one who caused this incident.
Igelia is not the name of the witch gardener, but the name of "great-grandmother" in Ionian. This title is generally an honorific for older women.
"You old thing, you are not as sensible as this Imina. You made people so sad, but you blame me?"
The witch gardener was not polite to Reed. As the spirit of the "Garden of Forgetfulness", the witch gardener and Reed were real old acquaintances. They had known each other for more than ten thousand years, and they never talked to each other.
What are the taboos?
This is actually the reason why Reid said that just now. If he wasn't really familiar with it, he wouldn't say anything more. When this "Garden of Forgetfulness" really annoyed him, there would naturally be these "Forgetting Flowers"
Eat the good fruit.
The name "Witch Gardener" called "Imina" made Ah Li frown slightly. This title means "little one" and is generally only used by very close family members.
It's not that Ahri felt offended or taken advantage of, she frowned, it was just because Reed had used this title before, and then gave up using it at her request. Now she finally made it clear with Reed.
, if Reed thinks of the past again because of this title, then her experience will really be in vain.
Reed was choked by the witch gardener, but he didn't have a temper. After all, what they said was actually correct, and the root problem of this matter did lie with him.
"Oh~ It's my fault too."
Reed sighed, but his expression made Ahri laugh, because Reed didn't mean to blame himself, but looked like he was proud of it.
"Tsk~"
How could the witch gardener not guess what Reed was thinking, so the old woman just shook her head with a sarcastic look on her face.
"It's only my fault that I'm so lovable that so many girls have fallen in love with me. Blame me, blame me. Unfortunately, I can't change it even if I want to."
Reed shook his head and pretended to sigh, as if this could be a good thing, which naturally made Ahri laugh stupidly. Reed deliberately enlivened the atmosphere, hoping that the atmosphere between him and her would be more natural.
Ahri can naturally understand this kind of thinking easily.
And Ah Li did not think otherwise, and showed off her face very much to Reed's honor. Her smile was bright, gorgeous, and naturally charming. Standing among the flowers, it was enough to make all the flowers eclipse.
Seeing Ah Li's look, the witch gardener knew that this girl was also hopeless, so she simply stopped talking.
Reed and Ah Li did not stay long. They walked forward among the swaying flowers around them and soon came out of the "Garden of Forgetfulness". The world outside was different from that in the garden.
"If those flowers weren't so dangerous, this Garden of Worry would really be a beautiful place to live."
Ah Li exhaled, the line "Garden of Forgetting Worry" really made her grow a lot, and also allowed her to untie her heart knot.
So even though she almost "suffocated" in it just now, Ahri doesn't hate this place now. She even feels that this "Garden of Forgetting Worry" is her blessed place.
"The scenery of Bandle City is not inferior at all."
Speaking of the scenery, Reed was a little unconvinced. He had never seen a place that could compare with Bandle City in natural beauty.
