A Single Arrow Kill (2)
"That's not what you're asking. I'm just answering you!" Cold-Blooded Fifth more and more cold sweat.
"Oh! That's true!"
"..."
Luckily, this little idiot is a bit absent-minded, otherwise pursuing him would really give me a headache. I had completely forgotten about this and even thought of him as someone I needed to flirt with!
What a careless mistake! This could be a fatal error...
No, I need to go back and reflect on this!
"Where's your horse?" Li Yue asked curiously when she saw Ye Lang walking.
"I plan to walk slowly and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way!" Ye Lang exclaimed, feigning admiration for the beautiful landscape. He would never admit that he didn't have a horse because he couldn't ride one.
"Oh, you have such a refined taste! However, the scenery here isn't very beautiful; you have to go deeper to see it. If you had a horse, you could see it sooner." Li Yue dismounted and patted the horse's body.
This implies that he wants to walk with Ye Lang!
"Same here, walking isn't necessarily a bad thing. You might even encounter some good prey along the way!" Ye Lang said casually. He was just continuing to pretend. Even if Li Yue said this place was bad and it would be best to skip it, he would still say it. It was part of the experience.
"That's right, it doesn't matter if it's a short distance!" Li Yue nodded and then slowly walked along, pulling on the horse's reins.
Li Yue continued, "If this were applied to a certain person, it would be a fact. He came to the event on foot, yet he caught a lot of prey..."
The person Li Yue was referring to was someone everyone knew she was talking about: Ye Lang. And almost everyone here, except for Ye Lang, knew who she was referring to.
When Li Yue talked about Ye Lang, her expression and tone seemed to change slightly, but it was a very subtle change that no one noticed!
"Huh?" Ye Lang was puzzled, but he wasn't interested in asking, because Athena had said that when pursuing a girl, it's best not to talk about other people.
Even if Athena hadn't mentioned it, Ye Lang wouldn't have bothered to ask. It had nothing to do with him, at least not in Ye Lang mind.
After walking for a while, Li Yue frowned and said to the people who were still following behind, "Don't you know the rules? During the Hunting Competition, you can't follow anyone other than the people you're with, otherwise you'll be expelled for violating the rules!"
"This... Miss Li Yue, it's too dangerous for you to stay with this kid. I think it's better for me to stay!" someone said, and his words also indicated that he was the only one left behind.
A group of people couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Damn it, who do you think you are, trying to have it all to yourself! Miss Li Yue, we'll stay and protect you, we'll all..."
"I'm sorry, I don't need it! If you continue, I'll have to notify the event staff," Li Yue said calmly, shaking her head.
She was used to this situation and naturally didn't experience any emotional fluctuations.
In the end, these people, who were like flies to Li Yue, finally dispersed. Some stubborn individuals were also kicked out by the event organizers, leaving only Ye Lang and Li Yue walking together.
A lone man and a lone woman are a good time to do some things...
At this moment, Ye Lang pondered how he should do this.
"What bad things are you thinking about?" Li Yue asked Ye Lang.
"No!" Ye Lang immediately denied, but soon he asked, "How did you know I was thinking something bad?"
"..." Li Yue was silent for a while, "Judging from your expression, I know you must be thinking about something bad. You Orcs are really naive, almost like some idiot..."
At this moment, Li Yue mistook Ye Lang's confusion for the simplicity of Orcs. Compared to Human Race were indeed much simpler.
"Some idiot?" Ye Lang asked, puzzled.
"Yes, he's a complete Prodigal Son, but he's not a bad person," Li Yue said calmly, nodding.
A complete Prodigal Son? That's not what we're talking about...
"You silly girl, ask her if she has a crush on that spendthrift Prodigal Son." Cold-Blooded Fifth sent the message.
"Do you have a crush on that Prodigal Son?" Ye Lang asked obediently, unaware that the Prodigal Son was actually referring to himself.
Although he didn't know the question was directed at him, Ye Lang also asked Cold-Blooded Fifth privately, right after he asked Li Yue.
"Little Five, why did you ask that question? It will ruin the plan. Didn't Athena say that we should never mention anyone Li Yue has feelings for?"
"...You don't need to worry about that!" Cold-Blooded Fifth replied decisively. She could disregard the plan for a moment; she was determined to find out the truth about this matter.
When Li Yue heard the question, she was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting to be asked this question, and even less expecting Ye Lang to ask it.
Li Yue quickly recovered and said, "I don't have a good impression of her, but if I had to say I dislike her, well, I do dislike her a little!"
Ask her why she dislikes it.
"Ask again?" Ye Lang was a little puzzled, but he did as instructed. However, this time he didn't ask Cold-Blooded Fifth, because Cold-Blooded Fifth had told him not to interfere.
"Actually, I can't say I hate him, I just feel a bit uncomfortable! He used to pursue me, he just started pursuing me out of nowhere, like an annoying fly that I couldn't get rid of. But then he suddenly stopped contacting me, and hasn't even said a word to me since. It makes me feel like I can't swallow this feeling..." Li Yue didn't hold back and slowly told Ye Lang what had happened.
"So that's how it is..." Cold-Blooded Fifth understood a little; she could still comprehend this mentality.
When someone keeps bothering you, you feel annoyed and want them to leave. But then one day, this person suddenly stops bothering you and even ignores you.
At this point, you might feel like you've been tricked, or you could say that a habit has suddenly disappeared, and you feel a bit out of sorts.
Of course, there is also the possibility that Ye Lang once touched Li Yue in a small way. After all, Ye Lang did all sorts of things back then, and he was a good young man who dared to do things and made a lot of sacrifices to pursue Li Yue.
Under those circumstances, perhaps one of those things moved Li Yue, but then, perhaps for the sake of saving face, Li Yue still pretended to be cool and said she didn't like Ye Lang.
Then, Ye Lang suddenly ignored her, which naturally made her feel very disappointed...
Wrong!
These guesses are all wrong!
If Li Yue knew this speculation, she would definitely answer that she could never be moved by Ye Lang; she just felt... she had been played!
