Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 821
When Ye Shuo went to look for Yang Qingxin, she was not in the room.Ye Shuo waited for a long time, but because he was eager to practice, he had to ask a passing female disciple to help pass the message.

When Yang Qingxin came back, the female disciple's first words were: "Qingxin, Big Brother Ye invited you to go to the Lantern Festival. See you on the west street of the city at Xushi tonight!"

As a good friend, she knew about Yang Qingxin's secret love, and she also admired the starry necklace together, and she also felt the other's intentions.Behind the scenes, they even talked about that traveler so many times.Therefore, when the "protagonist of the event" asked her to convey the invitation, she already showed an ambiguous smile unconsciously.

Since Ye Shuo was already slow in this aspect, he was anxious to go back to practice, so he didn't realize it for a while.But even if he finds out, he will probably only think that the other party is trying to make fun of Yang Qingxin and Ning Bufan, and maybe he will laugh a few times along with them.

At that moment, the two girls laughed and quarreled, Yang Qingxin opened the makeup box, and dressed up early for tonight's date.

She knew that after the Lantern Festival, Big Brother Ye would be preparing to participate in the Tiangong Gate assessment.On the eve of parting, she must strive to show her most beautiful appearance in front of him.It's best to take this opportunity...to confirm the relationship directly, so as not to miss it day and night.

On the other hand, Ye Shuo, who returned to the room, still didn't know anything about it.He concentrated on meditating and practicing until the third quarter of the unitary hour, when Ning Bufan took the initiative to find him.

"Bufan, why did you come to me if you didn't go to see Qingxin?" Ye Shuo laughed.I wondered if he would even ask me to accompany me on this confession date?

"Well, Brother Ye..." Ning Bufan blushed and scratched his head in embarrassment, "That's right, because I have something else on hand, I can trouble you... help me to accompany Qingxin first ? When I'm done, I'll come over right away!"

"Is there anything more important than a confession? Can't you let it go for now?" Ye Shuo was about to teach him a good lesson, the opportunity never came, but seeing him scratching his head and laughing dryly, Suddenly an inspiration flashed, "Ah, are you going to prepare a gift for Qingxin?"

Ning Bufan's face turned redder: "Well, hehe...I want to give her a surprise."

Helping people to the end, Ye Shuo nodded readily.After hasty grooming, I rushed to the west street of the city.

When Yang Qingxin arrived here, she saw the slender figure waiting quietly in front for the first time, and her face turned red unconsciously.

"Brother Ye!" After touching the star-filled necklace around his neck and cheering himself up secretly, Yang Qingxin quickly walked up to him.

Ye Shuo took a closer look. Tonight's Yang Qingxin was obviously well-groomed.Just the right delicate makeup, a snow-white floral dress, a crystal bead flower on the sideburns, and a pair of white fluffy ball earrings, which added a bit of elegant and mature demeanor to her original fresh and elegant temperament And yet cute.

Seeing this scene, Ye Shuo also smiled.Qingxin and Bufan really like each other, and soon, they will definitely "get married"!

Tonight's lantern festival is very lively, with gorgeous lanterns hanging everywhere, creating a dreamlike and romantic atmosphere.At a glance, the long street seems to be dotted with patches of neon lights.

In the dark night sky, a few bunches of fireworks exploded from time to time, just like the Milky Way falling into the nine sky, it is too beautiful to behold.

There are street markets beside the road, selling kebabs, souvenirs, and jewelry, almost everything you need.Ye Shuo and Yang Qingxin were strolling casually in the street, and they could always see several couples cuddling each other, feeding barbecue into each other's mouths, showing their strong love.Every time he sees a similar scene, Yang Qingxin's heartbeat will subconsciously speed up a little.

As for Yang Qingxin, her heart at this moment was full of the person beside her, but Ye Shuo, who was "absent in spirit", looked at this wonderful reunion scene, but felt sentimental for no reason.

If Dingsha is by my side now, if I can also hold hands with Dingsha and go to the lantern festival together, how wonderful it would be...

I don't know what Dingsha is doing now, will she be lonely, is there anyone with her?Ye Shuo was already hesitating, should he contact Yu Ruoheng and He Lianfeng and ask them, the girls from the Dingtian School, to help him take care of Dingsha?

"Brother Ye?" Yang Qingxin's voice rang in his ears, then she raised her hand and waved it tentatively in front of his eyes, "Brother Ye! What are you thinking?"

Ye Shuo came back to his senses, and quickly covered it up: "Ah, no, I was thinking how beautiful these lanterns are."

Yang Qing lowered her head and smiled shyly, and whispered: "No matter how beautiful the lantern is, it can't compare to being accompanied by a lover."

Ye Shuo was taken aback, what lover did she want?Ning Bufan has such deep affection for her, if she is infatuated with princes and knights, how can she be worthy of him?
"That person, he's already by your side!" To prevent her from thinking wildly, Ye Shuo hastily interrupted.

Yang Qingxin blushed instantly, turned her head and complained: "Oh, Brother Ye, you are necrotic..."

What did you do?Isn't it just to persuade her to "cherish the person in front of me", why did she die?Ye Shuo was puzzled.It's really hard to guess the thoughts of these girls, Ning Bufan, you will show up soon...

The two walked for a while, and saw a stall that "guess lantern riddles and give away souvenirs". Yang Qing jumped up and ran up, rummaging through the riddles hanging in front of the lanterns.

"Spring is gone, and the flowers fall without words."

This riddle looks very artistic, and Yang Qingxin was immediately attracted by it.But after thinking about it 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 things."

Yang Qingxin's eyes dimmed imperceptibly for a moment.In fact, girls don't ask their boyfriends to be proficient in everything. They just hope that when they are doing something with their heart, their boyfriends can also show interest and accompany them to invest in it, no matter the final result is success. If it doesn't work, they are already very satisfied.

"Spring, the five elements belong to wood." After being rejected by Ye Shuo, Yang Qingxin could only contemplate alone. Perhaps because her mood and artistic conception matched, she was miraculously inspired. '-'yan'='Xie'. So the answer is 'Xie'!"

"Little girl, you guessed it right!" The boss nodded, "As a prize, this sympathetic knot is given to you."

"Its design just happens to split a pattern into two complete halves, and one person wears half of it, and when put together, it will return to a complete circle, which symbolizes the eternal knot of one heart! Come, let me help you wear it." let's go."

Ye Shuo was taken aback, and quickly stopped him: "Hey, wait, let's wear it after the confession." The concentric knot was going to be worn, so naturally, after Ning Bufan confessed, let him wear it with Yang Qingxin!

The boss didn't think too much, and replied with a smile: "Haha, that's good, you put away this sympathetic knot first, and after confessing, you can put it on for this little girl with your own hands!"

Ye Shuo originally wanted to explain that he was not the one who wanted to confess, but he thought that Yang Qingxin was still by his side, and if he said too much, he was afraid that it would spoil the "surprise" Ning Bufan had prepared, so he had to be vague: "Ah, good."

Ye Shuo didn't notice that the moment he heard his "confession", Yang Qingxin had already blushed.That shy expression was like that of a gentle bride.

Brother Ye... is he going to confess to me?
The short-term unhappiness before, with this sweet word in my ears, has all disappeared.Yang Qing stared straight at Ye Shuo, shy and focused.Looking at the person in front of her, her future boyfriend, who is also... her future husband...

"Brother Ye," when the two of them walked to the end of the market and turned back again, Yang Qingxin finally mustered up the courage, "Can I have a few words with you?"

Ye Shuo didn't understand her solemnity: "Of course, we can, aren't we talking all the time?"

"Actually..." Yang Qingxin's smile was serene and beautiful, and she caressed the necklace on her neck, which was equivalent to their token of love, and it had always brought her courage.Now, she also needs to rely on its encouragement to speak out what is in her heart.

"When I saw this necklace full of gypsophila, I had you in my heart. Since I was a child, no one has ever cared so much for me. I know that the person who gave me the necklace will definitely treat me for the rest of my life." I'm good."

"Later, you saved us from Rakshasa Ghost Emperor... I will recognize you."

Taking out a sachet embroidered with lotus flowers from her bosom, she raised her head with a smile.

"This is a sachet I embroidered with my own hands, and inside it is the peace talisman I asked for. I wish you a smooth exam."

As she spoke, she stood on tiptoe and hung the sachet around Ye Shuo's neck.Leaning forward, she kissed him lightly on the lips.

Ye Shuo froze in place.Looking at the delicate girl who "throws himself into his arms" in front of him, he couldn't come back to his senses.He raised his hand to touch Yang Qingxin's shoulders, but neither pushed nor hugged.

But in the eyes of outsiders, they are a pair of young men and women who love each other so much that they kiss passionately in public.Pedestrians passing by from time to time cast envious glances at them.

At this moment, Ning Bufan was standing not far away, holding his carefully prepared diamond ring in his hand, looking at this scene, his soul was broken.

They are in the light that everyone is looking at, but they themselves are in the shadow of the backlight.

In front of those two people, it seemed that he was a superfluous existence, as if the whole world no longer needed him.

When no one noticed, Ning Bufan had already turned around alone, disappeared into the depths of the crowd, and left sadly.

Only then did Yang Qingxin let go of Ye Shuo.

It was the first time for her to act so boldly, and now she couldn't help but blush and her heart beat.

However, she did not regret this public display of love at all.Because she desperately wants Ye Shuo to know that she loves him no less than he loves herself.

When he gets to the Tiangong Gate, there will be many excellent girls there, and she doesn't want him to be dazzled among the flowers.The only thing he can do now is to let him remember himself a little deeper, a little deeper.Let him remember that there is another girl here who is wholeheartedly for him, don't let her down.

On Yang Qing's side, there was a surge of emotion, but in Ye Shuo's heart, there was a series of shocks.

She misunderstood!She really misunderstood!If the root of her temptation is the necklace full of stars, but the necklace was not given by me!Didn't Ning Bufan leave any notes in the box?

So, she has been wearing this necklace, not because she likes Ning Bufan, but because... like herself?Looking back on it like this, when he asked someone to tell her, because he was in a hurry, he didn't make it clear that it was Ning Bufan who asked her out.He just took it for granted that she would understand...

God!What are you doing all this...

Although Ye Shuo's first thought was to make it clear right away, seeing Yang Qingxin's happy face, if he told her that she had always loved the wrong person and expressed the wrong feelings, it would be a shame for her. How can I get by?
Moreover, according to what she said, she really likes herself now, even if she knew that the necklace was given by someone else, she might not be able to transfer her feelings to Ning Bufan.

Why don't you just make mistakes?A somewhat absurd idea suddenly rose from Ye Shuo's heart.

"Brother Ye?" Yang Qing looked at him suspiciously.Why didn't he give himself an answer all the time?Could it be... 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?"

In the jade slips, Ning Bufan's hoarse voice soon came out.

"Brother Ye, don't say anything, as long as you and Qingxin are happy."

Ye Shuo stared blankly at the jade slips, and then looked at Yang Qingxin in dismay.

……

Away from the busy city by the bridge.

Ning Bufan leaned alone in front of the bridge railing, holding the diamond ring that he had just rushed to finish in his hand.

That is the "heart" of a diamond, which is a complete heart shape pieced together with a large number of small diamonds.

On the one hand, it has the name of Qingxin, and it also represents that my love for Qingxin is like a diamond, firm, long-lasting, and eternal.

This will be his promise to her.

However, looking at the shining diamond now, it just feels like a joke.

It turns out that Qingxin has always liked Ye Shuo?I made her a starry necklace and a diamond ring for her, but she fell in love with Ye Shuo early on.

Is it true that an "honest man" like me who is plain-looking and not good at speaking can't please girls no matter how hard he tries?
He once wanted to wear a ring for Qingxin, hold her hand, go to many, many places, start a family with her, cherish and love her with his whole life, but now, there is no chance for these, never again up...

Qingxin no longer belongs to me.In the future, she will put on her wedding dress and become someone else's bride, and there will be no place for her by her side...

Ning Bufan bit his lip tightly, staring at the ring in his hand, the more he looked at it, the more painful he was, and finally he threw the ring out with a vicious wave of his hand.

A crystal clear white light flashed across the air, tiny splashes splashed on the water surface, and then, there was no more movement.

Like his broken love.

Like this dead heart of his.

Yang Qingxin's smiling face appeared in midair again, drifting further and further away, blending into the boundless night.

The sky was full of fireworks, like stars shining brightly, with thousands of brilliance falling down, leaving him alone and lonely.

……

"That, Qingxin." After receiving Ning Bufan's blessing, Ye Shuo let go of the big stone of "taking people's love" in his heart, and he also put his arms around Yang Qingxin's shoulders, "Would you mind..."

Originally, he wanted to ask if she would mind being his wife with the other two girls, but after thinking about it, this night was their engagement night, and it was too unpleasant to say that.As for Dingsha and Nangong Fei, let's wait for the opportunity in the future to introduce them.

"What?" Yang Qing turned her head curiously.

Ye Shuo changed his tune and said, "Do you mind if I'm clumsy and not good at expressing myself?"

Yang Qingxin blinked, and smiled mischievously: "Hehe, although Brother Ye is not good at expressing, but your heart is put into action, I understand it!"

While speaking, she gently leaned her head on Ye Shuo's shoulder, and leaned her whole body into his arms.The two watched the fireworks in the sky quietly together, enjoying the peace and happiness of this moment.

Yang Qingxin would never know that there was a boy who once loved her all her youth.

She would not know that she had hurt him deeply unintentionally.

In the sky, fireworks exploded, still so gorgeous.
