AST 821 – Departing on the Eve
Qing Shui hugged her gently. When he had came over, he had decided to gamble even though the odds of finding her were close to zero. However, he had actually managed to chase up to her.
Di Qing hugged Qing Shui very tightly. Her alluring body was trembling faintly, and the fluctuations in her heart were very intense as she softly made sobbing noises.
“Don’t cry, sister Qing.” said Qing Shui as he gently patted her back.
This was the second or third time he had hugged her. The Nine Continents were generally laid back about things, but a large portion of women were very traditional, even down to the bone.
When Di Qing raised her head again with her tear-filled, slightly red-pupiled beautiful appearance, she looked at Qing Shui earnestly with a face without makeup that made her seem exceptionally pitiful. From the look in her eyes, she seemed to want to place Qing Shui into her heart, to the place where her soul was.
“Why did you chase after me? Qing Shui, I’d already decided not to see you again, but why did you just have to appear?” asked Di Qing softly as she looked at Qing Shui.
“I’m slightly slow when it comes to relationships…”
“You’re not slow. You’re a hard and stiff tree root.” replied Di Qing as she continued to hug Qing Shui, not letting him go.
Qing Shui was speechless for a while. Bitterly laughing, he looked towards the magnificent girl who was hugging him, “Elder sister Qing, you should know that I’ve more than one girl with me. If you follow me, I’m afraid it’d wrong you.”
“Do I look like I feel wronged? This is the first time I’ve liked someone, and also the first time I’ve confessed to someone. However I’ve been hurt and covered in wounds.”replied Di Qing dejectedly as she looked at Qing Shui.
Qing Shui felt touched. Such a girl had given up everything to be by his side. His heart was not stone. This was coupled with the fact that the two of them had been in contact with each other for quite a while. Really though, the most important reason Di Qing felt this way was due to Di Chen.
It was not that Di Chen had forbidden their relationship. Instead, she seemingly had thought of playing matchmaker for the two of them, and had even mentioned it to him. However, he had felt that this was slightly unfair for Di Chen.
If Di Chen and Di Qing weren’t sisters, there would probably have been a different ending for Di Qing now.
“Could it be that you don’t like me a single bit?” Di Qing seemed to have gathered the courage to ask this question. In addition, Qing Shui could feel that her heart was currently racing.
“There’s no one who doesn’t like beauties. However liking and loving are two separate matters. In fact, it took quite a lot of courage to reject you.” Qing Shui replied earnestly with a bitter face.
“Is that true?” Hearing Qing Shui’s reply, Di Qing felt happy, her hand hugging Qing Shui more tightly.
“That’s naturally true. Although you’re not gentle enough, you’re a super great beauty.” replied Qing Shui with a smile.
“Who say’s that I’m not gentle? I’m very gentle…” Di Qing’s face turned slightly red as she looked at Qing Shui. She did not know whether his previous sentence was praising her or something else.
“You’re very gentle right now. Okay, okay, you’re still crying your nose off at such a big age. Come on, stop rubbing your mucus on me…” said Qing Shui gently as he rubbed the tear stains off her face. When his hand made contact with that tender and lovely skin, it made both their hearts jump and skip.
