Chapter 327 The sky is getting brighter
As daybreak approached, he and Qi Xi jumped off the cliff.
Due to the height difference between the cliff and the other side of the lake, he could easily reach the other side of the lake with his lightness skills. After Qi Xi left, he used the scattered lanterns floating on the lake to return to the lake island.
Before separation.
Finally, they had some space to themselves. Qi Xi's eyebrows were serious as she reminded Qiao Ying, "Ying, there's something I haven't told you yet. Lin Lezhi seems to have discovered the secret of the engraving."
As he spoke, self-blame rose in Qi Xi's eyes. "I'm sorry, I was afraid I'd forget, so I carved it on the wall. I didn't expect him to notice it, but he only remembered half of it. This time when I go back, I'll destroy it."
Qi Xi's voice weakened a little, and her eyes were filled with guilt as she said, "I'm also very sorry for moving things in the canyon without your permission, and... your name."
"That's fine. This saves me from having to use other methods to lure him into the mountains."
As for Qi Xi impersonating his identity, he never minded it.
If possible.
He even wanted to abandon the name.
After a brief pause, he slowly said, "Name and wealth are external things. As long as they can help you, there's no need to take them to heart."
Hear the words.
The expression in Qi Xi's eyes immediately became much more relaxed, and at the same time, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
However, he soon realized that Qiao Ying might have other plans. He didn't ask Qiao Ying why, nor did he intend to. He probably guessed Qiao Ying's intention and asked, "Do you want me to help him complete the rest of the route?"
"Well, thank you very much."
Qi Xi nodded, her eyes understanding as she said, "I will do everything well. It doesn't matter even if he suspects me. Anyway, he won't have a chance to get any information out of me."
When Qi Xi said this, he had already made up his mind to die.
The two were originally good friends and could talk about anything, but after not seeing each other for more than ten years, things and people have changed. When they finally met, they seemed a little unfamiliar and didn't know how to talk. They seemed a little cramped and awkward.
These days, the two of them have been in this kind of atmosphere.
There are obviously many things I want to ask, I want to ask what has happened over the years, what kind of people and things I have encountered, but I no longer have the same mood as before, and I am no longer carefree as before.
The words came to his lips, but he swallowed them all back.
Say it.
Qi Xi turned and left.
But after taking a few steps, Qi Xi stopped and turned back, her eyes filled with joy from the bottom of her heart. She said from the bottom of her heart: "Aying, I didn't expect to see you again. I'm very happy to see you doing well."
Just when Qi Xi thought she wouldn't get a response from Qiao Ying and was about to turn around and leave feeling disappointed, Qiao Ying suddenly said, "Me too."
Hearing Qiao Ying's response, Qi Xi's lost eyes immediately flashed with light, as bright as the moon far away in the fog, and she couldn't hide her joy.
The haze accumulated by hatred seemed to dissipate at this moment.
Qi Xi turned around and smiled brightly, as if she had returned to the bright and innocent young girl she was back then. She opened her heart and said, "I've been using your name for so many years. Every time someone calls me by it, I always feel like you're always by my side. It really gives me great comfort and support."
Qiao Ying looked at the bright smile on Qi Xi's face, and her eyes were moved by it, but her heart was aching, and it seemed as if some emotions were about to burst out of her eyes.
He controlled his emotions, his eyes filled with expectation, and he said calmly, "If you like, you can continue to live under my name after this case is over. Even if you don't use it anymore, you have to treat it well."
It was a very plain sentence, implying only a selfish motive, and no intention of coercion.
Listen and.
Qi Xi was slightly stunned, her smile froze, a hint of sadness and reluctance flashed in her eyes, but she was happy in her heart.
Although they haven't seen each other for more than ten years and many things remain unsaid, even without saying them, there is still a tacit understanding between the two of them. Without saying it, they can guess what the other wants to do.
Slow down.
Qi Xi tried her best to look as calm as possible and said with a smile, "Yes, I will."
Say it.
Qi Xi turned around and left. Not long after, his figure was obscured by the thick fog and could no longer be seen.
