After Ning Fengzhi and the others left, Qian Renxue leaned into Huo Yuhao's arms like a lazy cat. Sunlight shone on her long golden hair, and she suddenly looked up and asked, "Brother Huo, am I pretty?"
"Of course." Huo Yuhao's fingertips Entanglement a strand of her golden hair.
"Then," she leaned closer, so close they could both hear each other's breath, and Qian Renxue asked playfully, "Am I the prettiest girl in your heart?"
Huo Yuhao really didn't want to answer this question because, in his heart, Qiu'er and Xue'er were always the most beautiful girls. Whether it was the entire Douluo Continent or the entire world, he would say that Qiu'er and Xue'er were the most beautiful girls.
However, right now, "In the entire Douluo Continent, you are the most beautiful girl."
Qian Renxue was very satisfied with the answer, and her smile was as bright as a flower. She felt that the happiness in her heart was about to overflow. Right now, she was the happiest girl in the world.
Her voice was sweet and cloying as she said, "Brother Huo is also the most handsome boy in the world."
Looking at the innocent and carefree girl, Huo Yuhao suddenly thought, "If she didn't carry any burdens and remained as happy as she is now, her future wouldn't be so tragic, would it?"
He gently patted Qian Renxue's head. "She's really very different from the Qian Renxue in history," perhaps only because of his desperate protection of her.
I don't know what the future holds, but Huo Yuhao has always been the kind of person who will treat others well in return.
Although it's a plan, plans can be changed, and perhaps it can even change the ending for her and Bibi Dong.
However, the world will forever be missing someone named Huo Lai and someone named Hao Yi. I wonder if they will go crazy. He has already experienced Bibi Dong's obsession and yandere tendencies after leaving, as well as Qian Renxue's infatuation with him now.
If they never see each other again, they might do something foolish and end up back in the original situation.
Leaving is easy, but dealing with matters of the heart is truly troublesome. Perhaps it's because we live in different times and spaces; we can only cherish these fleeting, warm moments, and I can only spend a limited amount of time with them.
Everything eventually comes to an end. It's just a matter of whether that end will be good or bad. No one can predict the future, not even someone with the power of time and space. No one knows when the sun will rise and the moon will set tomorrow, or whether happiness or an accident will come first.
"Brother Huo?" Qian Renxue suddenly leaned closer, interrupting his thoughts, "Are you even listening to me?"
Huo Yuhao snapped out of his daze, looked at the coquettish expression on the person in front of him, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Of course, I remember every word my Xue'er says."
We are merely crossing the river of time; how could we possibly know the myriad aspects of life?
Fate has brought back a wandering soul, making it impossible to grant you true love again.
Far from home, a stranger in a strange land, I can only grieve alone, my head severed from my body.
Fate plays tricks on us, but little did we know that we were never meant to be.
Ten thousand years may pass in the blink of an eye, but time will flow on and on.
He listened to Qian Renxue say a lot. The two seemed like newlyweds, even though they had always been, and their feelings for each other were now very strong. But only Huo Yuhao knew that this happiness was like sand slipping through his fingers; the tighter he held on, the faster it would slip away.
A night breeze swept by, carrying a hint of coolness. Huo Yuhao held Qian Renxue even tighter, as if doing so would slow down the passage of time.
That night, Qian Renxue, unusually, did not leave immediately, transforming back into Xue Qinghe and returning to the palace. Instead, she took Huo Yuhao's arm and strolled leisurely with him through the streets of Heaven Dou City.
All eyes were on the two of them.
The man was handsome and dashing, and the woman was stunningly beautiful. What a perfect couple they were. Amidst their whispers, Qian Renxue unconsciously moved a few steps closer to Huo Yuhao.
Qian Renxue and her companion walked along the street, where many food stalls were selling snacks, and the stalls on both sides emitted an enticing aroma.
Things like candied hawthorn berries, roasted sweet potatoes, and grilled fish.
Seeing Qian Renxue's expression, Huo Yuhao noticed she wanted to eat it but wouldn't buy it herself, so she could only look at Huo Yuhao pitifully.
Actually, it wasn't that Qian Renxue didn't want to buy it; she just wanted Huo Yuhao to buy it for her, which felt a bit like she was being coquettish.
If possible, she would like to share a meal with Huo Yuhao, so that it would feel like they are a couple.
Seeing how adorable the girl was, Huo Yuhao noticed that Qian Renxue cold face now showed a cute expression, which, to be honest, was incredibly charming.
"Wait here." He gently squeezed Qian Renxue's palm and walked towards the candied hawthorn stall.
"Two, please."
He went straight to the candied hawthorn stall and bought two candied hawthorns. He didn't have any complicated thoughts, like two people sharing one.
Qian Renxue looked at the candied hawthorn handed to her, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes. (This blockhead, doesn't he know how to buy one?) But her heart quickly raced again because of Huo Yuhao's next action. He naturally wiped the candied hawthorn from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, his movements incredibly gentle.
Such peaceful and happy times are very rare. No matter what Qian Renxue wants to eat, Huo Yuhao will pay for it.
Only when it came to grilling the fish did Huo Yuhao say, "Grilled fish? I'll grill it for you next time when I have time."
Qian Renxue smiled and said, "Brother Huo, you're grilling fish for me? Brother Huo, can you even cook?"
Huo Yuhao said, "Of course, I'll let you taste my cooking next time. You could say I'm the best chef in the world, the best in the entire world. No one can beat me at cooking."
Qian Renxue said, "Really? That's wonderful!"
Qian Renxue chuckled, the sweetness of the candied hawthorn berries seeping into her heart. A night breeze blew by, and she quietly rested her head on Huo Yuhao's shoulder, thinking: How wonderful it would be if it could always be like this.
As Huo Yuhao gazed at her contented profile, he wondered: How long can this moment last?
Huo Yuhao took out an exquisite silver necklace from her bracelet Soul Tool. It was a protective Soul Tool, Level 9 Soul Tool. She made two of them, one in the shape of a necklace and the other in the shape of a bracelet. The necklace was for Qian Renxue, and the bracelet was for Bibi Dong.
The pendant was a small sapphire, shimmering with a mysterious glow under the moonlight. "This is a level nine protective Soul Tool I crafted myself," he explained softly, "It can protect you in crucial moments."
After taking it, Qian Renxue happily said, "Thank you, Brother Huo."
However, she said coquettishly, "Brother Huo, I want you to put it on for me personally."
Huo Yuhao shook his head helplessly. There was nothing he could do but do as he was told. His slender fingers gently lifted her long golden hair. When the cool pendant touched her skin, Qian Renxue trembled slightly involuntarily.
After she put it on, she asked, "Does it look good?" As she turned around, the sapphire landed perfectly between her collarbones, bathed in moonlight, making it appear even more beautiful.
Huo Yuhao's gaze softened, and he smiled as he said, "Beautiful."
Then, he took out a few fireworks from his bracelet-shaped Soul Tool.
Suddenly, a few soft sounds pierced the night sky. Qian Renxue looked up in surprise and saw dazzling fireworks blooming in the night, painting the night sky with the most beautiful colors.
The rainbow light shone on Qian Renxue's face, and her eyes reddened slightly. "So beautiful. Thank you, Brother Huo, for giving me an unforgettable day. I will always remember this day and always wear the gift you gave me."
As the last firework burst into bloom, she tiptoed and kissed his lips.
The two enjoyed this sweet moment amidst this beautiful scenery.
