Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This matter was still a knot in her heart. Dongfang Liuyun actually did not want to hide anything, because it was only a matter of time before these things were found out. Although she did not want to mention it, she had never thought of hiding it.
“Tell me briefly?”
Qi Lei asked tentatively, “If you don’t want to talk about it, I don’t need to hear it.”
“It’s not that I don’t want to talk about it, I just don’t know where to start.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes darkened. Suddenly, she slowly withdrew from his embrace, her other hand still holding his, “I’ve known him for many years, just a few years later than Lan Xiu and the others. Fujiwara’s mother is from our country, and his father is a native j.a.panese. His mother was originally a n.o.blewoman from this side, and he grew up here as well. We went to school together, from primary school to middle school. We were both schoolmates from the same school, but before middle school, I didn’t have much contact with him.”
“He’s the same as me, and both of us are very fond of archaeological culture. We often go out to explore together, and we’ve experienced many things. I don’t want to lie to you. We used to be very in love, and we were willing to sacrifice ourselves for each other. But, you know, some things and feelings will disappear with time and change with the environment. Unfortunately, we had that problem between us. Of course, it was also because of Lan Qi.”
“Lan Qi?”
Qi Lei looked at Dongfang Liuyun doubtfully. “What does it have to do with him?”
“Although my relations.h.i.+p with Fujiwara is unforgettable, I’ve never thought of having a good future with him. His ident.i.ty might not be suitable for me. Furthermore, there are too many misunderstandings and burdens between us. We’re destined not to be together openly. I’m not the kind of person who would give up everything just for love. It’s because I want more than just love. That’s why there was a crisis between us.”
“Lan Qi has always been very good to me. He’s a very gentle and considerate person. I really admire the quietness from him. Sometimes, he’s just like you. He has a very clean and peaceful temperament. This kind of feeling makes me inexplicably nostalgic. So, when he proposed to me, I didn’t reject him immediately. Instead, I promised him that I would think about it carefully. Actually, the answer was that I’ll agree to it, but he didn’t come to see that day.”
At this point, the light in Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes dimmed, and her face could not help but turn pale. He could see it clearly under the dim light.
“Lan Qi’s death was largely because of me. Back then, the person who should have died would not have been him, but me…”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was unusually gloomy. As she spoke, she could not help but close her eyes. She was afraid that if she continued, she would not be able to control the surging pain in her heart. She would not be able to hold it in…
“Now, do you understand why I felt the same way about what you went through back then? Because I’ve also seen the scene of the person I care about dying right in front of my eyes. Moreover, such a life-and-death parting isn’t just this once.”
Dongfang Liuyun spoke in a low voice. Her lamenting tone contained too much helplessness and enduring pain.
“Don’t care about Fujiwara. I’ve said it before, what we had is in the past. Once we’ve missed each other, it’s gone. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have wasted so many years. I heard that he’ll be back for the Yang Festival because he’s going to pay respects to his grandfather and grandmother. So, I’m not sure if he’ll…”
“If he really can’t let you go, he’ll definitely look for you.”
Before Dongfang Liuyun could finish, Qi Lei cut her off. His tone was calm, but his deep eyes were still fixed on her.
Dongfang Liuyun listened and was in a daze for a moment before nodding. “I know, but please believe me.”
Qi Lei smiled calmly, “Don’t worry. I’m not that narrow-minded. Many couples don’t need to become enemies even if they can’t be together in the end. If that’s the case, I’ll need to worry about you more. But since you have your own plans, I can be rest a.s.sured.”
“Liuyun, I don’t really want to bother about your past and things you don’t want to talk about. You’re a very rational person, so I’m willing to give you time to deal with these problems. Try not to let it affect our lives and our relations.h.i.+p. I believe you can handle it.”
“Trust me? Qi Lei, where did you get this confidence from?”
Dongfang Liuyun looked at him in surprise.
He smiled mysteriously and lowered his voice. He said very sensitively in her ear, “Because I’m the one who legally has you now. Besides, I don’t think there’s anyone more suitable for you, and more worthy of you than me, Qi Lei.”
As he said this, he seemed to be gathering a glimmer of determination in his dark eyes. Looking at it made Dongfang Liuyun feel a little warm in her heart.
After some thought, she blinked. She was inexplicably touched and smiled faintly, “I won’t tell you that actually, I’m quite worried that you’ll let me go in the end because I’m not that determined. In terms of feelings, I’m actually a pessimist. If you let me go, I won’t have the courage to pursue you again. In the end, I would only silently endure and watch you turn around and leave.”
Hearing that, Qi Lei suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms. He hugged her tightly and said softly, “I won’t. No matter how you turn around, I’ll chase you back. I won’t give you a chance to leave. I won’t let go for even a moment.”
He was really afraid that if he let go for even a moment, she would leave him to go far away.
He did not tell her that she was just like her name, a moving cloud. If she did not stop intentionally, he would not have been able to catch her.
Dongfang Liuyun was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reached out and hugged his strong waist. She hugged him tightly. “Okay.”
Qi Lei hugged her even tighter.
Actually, he wanted to ask her if he had a place in her heart, but at this moment, he suddenly could not bring himself to ask.
He did not know if this was the so-called feelings, the so-called liking. At least now, he realized that he cares more and more for her, day by day, and his desire for her was also deepening day by day.
He thought this, and wanted to sort out the wild thoughts in his heart, but Dongfang Liuyun did not give him a chance. A soft and familiar touch suddenly came from his lips, and he could not help but lock onto her slender fingers tightly…
