Chapter 821(1/2)
When Ye Shuo went to find Yang Qingxin, she happened to be out of the room. Ye Shuo waited for a long time, but because he was eager to practice, he had to ask the passing female disciple to help him tell him.
When Yang Qingxin came back, the female disciple's first sentence was: "Qingxin, Brother Ye asked you to go to the lantern festival together. Tonight, I will see you in the west streets of the city at Xu hour!
As a friend, she knew Yang Qingxin's secret love, and also admired the star necklace together, and was also moved by the other party's intentions. In secret, they had even talked about the traveler many times. Therefore, when the "protagonist" asked her to convey the invitation, she unconsciously showed an ambiguous smile.
Because Ye Shuo was already slow in this regard, he was anxious to go back to practice, and he did not notice it for a while. However, even if he found out, he would probably only think that the other party was making fun of Yang Qingxin and Ning Bufan, and perhaps he would laugh a few times.
At this moment, the two girls laughed and made a fuss, and Yang Qingxin opened the makeup box and dressed up early to welcome tonight's date.
She knew that after the Lantern Festival, Brother Ye was about to take the Tiangong Gate assessment. On the eve of separation, she must strive to show her most beautiful appearance in front of him. It would be best to take this opportunity... to directly determine the relationship so as not to miss her day and night.
On the other hand, Ye Shuo, who returned to the room, still knew nothing about all this. He focused on meditation and practiced until the third hour of You hour, when Ning Bufan took the initiative to find him.
"Bufan, why did you come to me if you don't go to see Qingxin?" Ye Shuo said with a smile. He thought that he would not have to accompany him even on this confession date, right?
"Well, Brother Ye..." Ning Bufan blushed and scratched his head embarrassedly, "That's right, because I still have something on hand now, can you please... help me accompany Qingxin first? When I get it done, I will come here soon!"
"What else is more important than confession? Can't you put it aside first?" Ye Shuo was about to teach him a lesson, and he would not miss it. He would never come again, but when he saw his appearance of scratching his head and laughing dryly, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Ah, are you going to prepare a gift for Qingxin?"
Ning Bufan's face turned redder: "That's right, hehe... I want to give her a surprise."
After helping others to the end, Ye Shuo nodded happily. After washing up, he rushed to the west street of the city.
When Yang Qingxin arrived here, she saw the slender figure waiting in front of her for the first time, and her face turned red unconsciously.
"Brother Ye!" After touching the star necklace in his neck and secretly cheering himself up, Yang Qingxin quickly walked up to him.
Ye Shuo looked closely and found that Yang Qingxin was obviously dressed up tonight. Her exquisite makeup, a snow-white floral dress, a crystal bead flower on her temples, and a pair of white fluffy ball earrings made her temperament add a bit of the style of a famous family to her original freshness and elegance, mature but cute.
Seeing this scene, Ye Shuo also smiled. Qingxin and Bufan really like each other. Soon, they will definitely "finally get married"!
Tonight's lantern festival is very lively, with gorgeous colorful lanterns hanging everywhere, creating a dreamy and romantic atmosphere. At first glance, the long street seems to be dotted among the neon lights.
The dark night sky explodes from time to time, just like the Milky Way falling from the sky, it is so beautiful.
There are almost everything from street markets next to the road, including barbecue kebabs, souvenirs and jewelry. Ye Shuo and Yang Qingxin were wandering around the streets, and they could always see couples snuggling each other and feed the barbecue intimately to each other, showing their affection. Every time they saw a similar picture, Yang Qingxin's heartbeat would subconsciously speed up a little.
For Yang Qingxin, her heart was full of the person around her at this moment, but Ye Shuo, who was "man is in and god is not here", felt sad for no reason when he looked at this wonderful reunion scene.
If Dingsha is by my side now, if I could hold hands with Dingsha and go to the lantern festival together, how great would it be...
I don’t know what Dingsha is doing now, will she be lonely and will anyone accompany her? Ye Shuo is already hesitating whether he should contact Yu Ruoheng and Helianfeng and let them girls in the Dingtian Sect take care of Dingsha more?
"Brother Ye?" Yang Qingxin's voice sounded in his ears, and then she raised her hand and swayed in front of his eyes tentatively, "Brother Ye! What are you thinking?"
Ye Shuo came back to his senses and hurriedly covered up, "Ah, no, I was thinking that these lanterns are so beautiful."
Yang Qingxin smiled shyly and said whispering: "No matter how beautiful the lanterns look, they are not as good as lovers."
Ye Shuo was stunned. What other lovers did she want? Ning Bufan was so affectionate about her. If she was obsessed with other princes and knights, how could she be worthy of others?
"That person, he is already by your side!" Ye Shuo quickly interrupted to avoid her random thoughts.
Yang Qingxin blushed in an instant, turned her head and complained, "Oh, Brother Ye, you are so evil..."
What did you do? Isn’t it just that she was trying to "cherish the people in front of you", so why did she die? Ye Shuo was inexplicably confused. The thoughts of these girls are really hard to guess. Ning Bufan, you should appear soon...
The two walked a long way and saw a stall where they "Guess Riddles and Send Souvenirs". Yang Qingxin jumped up and searched in the riddle stickers hanging in front of the lantern.
"Spring is gone, and the flowers fall silently."
This riddle looked very artistic, and Yang Qingxin was immediately attracted by it. But after thinking carefully for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out, so he turned to Ye Shuo for help.
"Don't look at me," Ye Shuo quickly shook his head, "I don't understand these."
Yang Qingxin's eyes were dull for a moment. In fact, girls do not ask their boyfriends to be proficient in everything. They only hope that when they do something with their heart, their boyfriends can also show interest and join them in. No matter whether the final result is successful or not, they are already very satisfied.
"Spring, the five elements belong to wood." After being rejected by Ye Shuo, Yang Qingxin could only think hard alone. Perhaps because of the combination of mood and artistic conception, she had miraculous inspiration, "Flowers = withering, 'wood''''Thanks''-'Yan' = 'Xie'. So the answer is 'Xie'!"
"Little girl, you guessed it right!" The boss nodded, "As a prize, I will give you this knot of concentricity."
"Its design happens to disassemble a pattern in two complete halves. When one person wears half, put together, it will be restored to a complete circle, symbolizing the meaning of unity forever! Come on, I'll help you put it on."
Ye Shuo was startled and quickly stopped him: "Hey, wait, let's wear it after confessing." This knot of unity should be worn, so naturally, after Ning Bufan confessed, he would let him wear it with Yang Qing!
The boss didn't think too much and replied with a smile: "Haha, okay, you can put this knot in your heart first, and wait until you confess, and then you will put it on for this little girl with your own hands!"
Ye Shuo originally wanted to explain that it was not him who wanted to confess, but he thought that Yang Qingxin was still by his side. If he said too much, he would be afraid that it would destroy the "surprise" that Ning Bufan prepared, so he had to vaguely say: "Ah, OK."
Ye Shuo did not notice that when he heard him say the "confession", Yang Qingxin's face turned red. Her shy expression was like a gentle bride.
Brother Ye...Is he going to confess to me?
The short-term unhappiness that had been heard before had already disappeared with the sweet words. Yang Qingxin stared straight at Ye Shuo, shy and focused. Looking at the person in front of him, his future boyfriend, also... the future husband...
"Brother Ye," When the two of them walked to the end of the street market and returned again, Yang Qingxin finally plucked up the courage, "Can I say a few words to you?"
Ye Shuo didn't understand her solemnity: "Of course, isn't we talking all the time?"
"Actually..." Yang Qingxin's smile was quiet and beautiful, and she gently stroked the necklace in her neck. It was equivalent to their love, and she had always brought her courage. Now, she also had to use its encouragement to express everything in her heart.
"When I saw this star-full necklace, I had you in my heart. Since I was a child, no one has ever been so attentive to me. I know that the person who gave me a necklace will definitely be good to me all his life."
"Later, you saved us from the hands of the Rakshasa Ghost Emperor... I will determine you."
She took out a sachet embroidered with lotus flowers from her arms, and she smiled and raised her head.
"This is a sachet that I embroidered by myself, and there is also the peace talisman I asked for. I wish you a smooth assessment."
As she said that, she stood on tiptoe and hung the sachet on Ye Shuo's neck. She followed her way and kissed him gently on his lips.
Ye Shuo was stunned. Looking at the pretty girl who was "putting her arms to her arms" in front of him, he couldn't come back to his senses. He raised his hand to put Yang Qingxin on his shoulders, but he was either pushing or hugging.
But to outsiders, they are a young man and woman who love to the point of being in love and kiss passionately in public. From time to time, passers-by cast envious eyes at them.
At this moment, Ning Bufan was standing not far away, holding the diamond ring he had carefully prepared in his hand, looking at this scene, his soul was shattered.
They are in the light that is watched, while themselves are in the shadow of backlight.
In front of those two people, it seemed as if I was an extra existence, as if the whole world no longer needed myself.
When no one noticed it, Ning Bufan had already turned around alone, hid in the depths of the crowd, and left sadly.
At this time, Yang Qingxin let go of Ye Shuo.
This was the first time she had done such a bold behavior, and her heartbeat was blushing.
But she did not regret this public show of love at all. Because she urgently wanted Ye Shuo to know that she loved him no less than he loved him.
When he arrived at the Heavenly Palace Gate, there would be many excellent girls there, and she didn't want him to be dazzled among the flowers. The only thing he could do now is to let him remember himself a little deeper, and let him remember that there was a girl who was wholeheartedly doing him, so don't let her down.
On the side of Yang Qingxin, there was a burst of emotions, but in Ye Shuo's heart, there were a series of shocks.
She misunderstood! She really misunderstood! If the root cause of her being moved was the star-full necklace, but the necklace was not given by herself! Did Ning Bufan not leave any notes in the box at the beginning?
So, she kept wearing this necklace, not because she likes Ning Bufan, but because... she likes herself? Looking back on this, when he asked someone to tell someone, because he was in a hurry, he didn't say it was Ning Bufan's appointment. He just took it for granted that she would understand...
Oh my God! What's the matter with me...
Although Ye Shuo's first thought was to make it clear immediately, if she saw Yang Qingxin's happy appearance now, if she told her that she had always loved the wrong person and expressed the wrong love, how could she live up to her face?
Moreover, from what she said, she really likes herself now. Even if she knows that the necklace was given by someone else, she may not be able to transfer her feelings to Ning Bufan anymore. In that case, it will only make all three of them suffer.
Why not... just make mistakes? A somewhat absurd thought suddenly rose from Ye Shuo's heart.
"Brother Ye?" Yang Qingxin looked at him in confusion. Why did he never give him a reply? Doesn't he like himself?
"You wait first." Ye Shuo waved his hand awkwardly, and then hurriedly took out the jade slip.
"Bufan, where are you?"
Ning Bufan's hoarse voice soon came from the jade slip.
"Brother Ye, stop talking about anything, as long as you and Qingxin are happy."
Ye Shuo stared at the jade slip in a daze, and looked at each other with Yang Qingxin.
...
Away from the bridge in the downtown area.
Ning Bufan leaned alone in front of the bridge railing, holding the diamond ring he had just finished.
It is the "heart" of a diamond, a complete heart shape pieced together using a large number of broken diamonds.
On the one hand, it has the name of Qingxin, and also represents that its love for Qingxin is like a diamond, firm and lasting, eternal.
This will be my promise to her.
But now, looking at the shining diamonds, I just feel like a joke.
It turns out that what Qingxin has always liked Ye Shuo? She made a star necklace for her and a diamond ring for her, but she had already fallen in love with Ye Shuo early on.
Is an "immortal person" like myself who is ordinary and not good at speaking, no matter how hard he tries, he will not be able to please girls?
He once wanted to put a ring on Qingxin, hold her hand, go to many places, start a family with her, and use his life to cherish and love her. Now, there is no chance of these, and there is no more...
Qingxin no longer belongs to her. In the future, she will put on her wedding dress and become someone else's bride. She will never have her own place around her again...
Ning Bufan bit his lips tightly and stared at the ring in his hand. The more he looked, the more he felt the pain. Finally, he raised his hand hard and threw the ring out.
A crystal white light flashed through the air, and tiny splashes of water splashed on the water surface. Then, there was no movement again.
Just like his shattered love.
To be continued...
