In the evening, a group of people from Zhenfeng Martial Arts School went to a big hotel to have dinner and celebrate.
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening when we left the hotel.
"Master, are you in a hurry to go back?" Su Ling'er looked at Xu Qingyun and asked.
Xu Qingyun shook his head: "No need to worry."
"Then Master, can you accompany me for a walk?" Su Ling'er asked again.
"Okay." Xu Qingyun nodded.
Su Linger smiled happily.
Because they were happy, they all drank some wine during dinner in the evening, and Su Ling'er also drank a lot. At this moment, there were still two blushes on her pretty face, which made her even more beautiful.
With the cool night breeze blowing, the two of them walked aimlessly along a sparsely populated street. It was quite pleasant to chat while walking.
Unknowingly, the two came to a lake.
"Master, let's go boating on the lake!" Su Ling'er suddenly said with her eyes lit up.
The lake is quite lively during the day, and you can see many couples boating on the lake, but there are fewer at night.
Xu Qingyun looked over and saw that the boat charterer had already gotten off work.
"We're already off work, how can we go boating on the lake?" Xu Qingyun said.
Su Ling'er rolled her eyes, smiled and said, "This is not a problem."
Su Ling'er took Xu Qingyun's hand and walked over quickly.
Using his spiritual energy, he used a gentle palm to destroy the door lock.
"Master, don't scold me, I will compensate the other party." Su Ling'er quickly looked at Xu Qingyun and said.
"You!" Xu Qingyun wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
Su Ling'er took Xu Qingyun's hand, walked in, randomly selected a small boat, and got on it with Xu Qingyun.
"Master, sit still! We are setting off!"
Su Ling'er shouted, then rowed the oars, and the boat slowly moved towards the center of the lake.
Xu Qingyun smiled. It was rare to see Su Ling'er so happy today, so it didn't matter if she had some mischief with her.
It was Xu Qingyun's first time to go boating on the lake at night. It was quite novel and quite good.
There are strips of bright lights all around the lake, which is very beautiful, and you can't see the road because of the darkness.
"Master, please come and row too!" Su Ling'er handed the oar to Xu Qingyun.
Xu Qingyun took the oar and started rowing slowly.
Su Ling'er looked around, admiring the scenery.
After rowing around the lake for two times, Xu Qingyun stopped the boat in the middle of the lake.
At this moment, the light strips around the lake suddenly dimmed. It turned out that these lights did not stay on until dawn, but were scheduled to go out at midnight.
For a moment, Xu Qingyun and Su Ling'er were in darkness.
At first, Su Ling'er was a little scared, but when she thought that her master was still with her, she became less scared.
Without the bright light strips around her, Su Ling'er could see more different scenery.
The stars seem to be extraordinarily bright tonight, dotted in the night sky, like a painting, beautiful.
Su Ling'er pulled Xu Qingyun, and the two of them lay on their backs on the boat, admiring the beautiful scenery of the stars in the sky. With their heads turned to one side, they could see each other's face, their eyes, and themselves in the eyes.
After being drunk, I don’t know that the sky is on the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams that overwhelm the stars.
Both of them enjoyed this rare peace.
"Master." Su Ling'er called softly.
"Yeah." Xu Qingyun responded.
"Master, do you know why I like martial arts so much?"
Xu Qingyun said nothing, waiting for Su Ling'er to continue.
"Master, are you curious, where is my mother? You may not know that my mother passed away when I was very young."
"Maybe because of this, my father and grandpa have become very good to me and seem to want to compensate me." Su Ling'er tried his best to speak in a calm tone, but Xu Qingyun could still hear and feel the unrest in his heart.
.
"You must not know how my mother died, but I know it and will never forget it for the rest of my life, because I watched my mother die in front of me with my own eyes."
Xu Qingyun's heart trembled, and he gently held Su Ling'er's catkin.
Su Ling'er continued: "At that time, I was still very young. That day, my mother took me to the amusement park as agreed. But on the way, I encountered danger."
"They are dad's enemies. They want to catch me and mom to threaten dad."
"That day, in order to protect me, my mother fought with the gangsters and was stabbed seven times. She obviously didn't know martial arts. She was just an ordinary person. Why was she so stupid? Why did she have to fight with several thugs with weapons?!
"
"And I was right next to me, watching helplessly as my mother was stabbed one after another by the bad guys. I could only cry and couldn't do anything at that time, soooo..."
Speaking of this, Su Ling'er could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes, and the tears fell like rain, pear blossoms with rain.
Xu Qingyun quietly hugged Su Ling'er and comforted her softly: "Ling'er, I can't blame you. Your mother did that to protect you. She didn't. On the contrary, she is great."
"I know, I know, my mother is the greatest mother in the world. But I hate myself so much, I hate myself for being useless. If, if I had been stronger, maybe, maybe, my mother would not have died.
Got it!"
"Before my mother died, she asked me not to blame my father. She asked me to live well and live happily, and she asked me not to live in hatred."
"I did it. I didn't blame my father. I also tried my best to live a happy life."
"But at the same time, I also long to become stronger and I want to learn martial arts. I think if I become stronger and encounter similar things in the future, I will not be so scared that I will just cry stupidly. I will rush over and protect
My relatives, protect my friends..."
"Woooo..."
Su Ling'er hugged Xu Qingyun and cried bitterly.
I don't know how long Su Ling'er had been holding these words in her heart. Today, she was half drunk and poured them all out to Xu Qingyun.
Everyone thought that Su Ling'er was learning martial arts just to be competitive and that it was very interesting.
How many people know that her true purpose of learning martial arts is so pure and simple, just to be able to protect her relatives and friends when encountering danger!
Just to prevent tragedy from happening again.
"Ling'er, if your mother had a spirit, she would definitely be proud of you." Xu Qingyun said softly.
Su Ling'er's crying gradually became quieter, and then the sound of her even breathing could be heard.
Su Ling'er was tired from crying and fell asleep like this.
People who are too emotionally excited will generally feel tired when they calm down.
Xu Qingyun did not disturb Su Ling'er, just let her sleep quietly with one of his arms as pillow.
A lake, a boat, a pair of jade figures, a crescent moon, and a star map.
It looks like a painting, but it's not a painting.
Xu Qingyun quietly looked at the stars and the moon in the sky, with a myriad of thoughts.
Su Ling'er's thoughts are not his thoughts!
However, along the long journey, there will be some other differences.
