Ye Tianlai's mind was very confused. He consciously wanted to break up his feelings, but when he saw Li Qingyao today, he knew that he couldn't break it.
He didn't know what kind of face he should use to meet Li Qingyao, and he also knew that Li Qingyao was hiding from him. But he knew even more that he could not let Li Qingyao marry Chen Xiuyan.
This is not just a personal relationship, but more importantly, he knew that Li Qingyao did not like Chen Xiuyan. When he saw Li Qingyao, Chen Xiuyanxu and Weishe, he felt that she was defiled and he felt that she was bleeding from pain.
He knew that Li Qingyao did this for him to give up, but no matter whether he could give up or not, he could no longer let Li Qingyao sacrifice himself like this!
So he had to make it clear. No matter what he said, he didn't want Li Qingyao to live a bad life and forced himself to put on a mask to like someone he didn't like. He owed Li Qingyao too much.
He rode a fast horse and arrived at Li Qingyao's residence, but Li Qingyao was not at home. The maid named Lian'er said that Li Qingyao had gone to Qingyue Lake.
Ye Tianlai asked her about the location of Qingyue Lake and then went to Qingyue Lake.
What did she do when she went to Qingyue Lake alone... Or was she really alone? Ye Tianlai thought in a mess.
The autumn wind is rustling and the starry sky is clear.
Qingyue Lake is a small lake in the suburbs. It belongs to the private property of the Li family. It is quiet and secluded. The lake is surrounded by green bamboos and the galaxy is undercurrent in the night sky.
Ye Tianlai dismounted when he was approaching Qingyue Lake because he heard the sound of the flute.
He had never heard of Li Qingyao's flute before, but because of Liang Gutai, everyone in the capital knew Li Qingyao's achievements in musical rhythm. The sound of the flute at this moment must have been played by Li Qingyao.
Ye Tianlai tied his horse outside the sparse bamboo forest and listened quietly to the sound of the flute. He didn't know much about music, but he could still hear the thinness and sadness in it.
"A dream in the world, and winter relies on the mountains."
Ye Tianlai saw a line of poem on a bamboo. Looking at the trace, it should have been a newly engraved with a sword. He recognized it as Li Qingyao's handwriting, and he always read the sentence Qingqingzipeng and then folded it.
Things in the world are a dream, and winter comes back to spring... Ye Tianlai gently caresses the sword marks, and the more he tastes, the more he feels sad.
Both of her parents died, and now even the Li family excluded her for no reason. At this moment, she was helpless and alone... and even had no cultivation.
The Li family... is really hateful! Ye Tianlai couldn't help but think viciously, Junior Sister Li is already pitiful enough, but he didn't expect that the Li family is so ungrateful and forced a poor girl like this!
How dare the Yu Huai Li family do this?
I heard that this was done by Li Qingyao's cousin Li Qingyue. This bitch was domineering once he got the power. He expected that Junior Sister Li was simply kind and tolerant when she encountered problems and bullied her!
I will definitely make him pay the price... It's time for the head of the Li family to change someone! Ye Tianlai thought to himself.
The sound of the flute was quiet, and Ye Tianlai thought about Li Qingyao's pitiful life experience and felt even heavier. Junior Sister Li was so pitiful, why did fate always bully honest people?
The sound of the flute gradually stopped. Ye Tianlai walked through several rows of sparse bamboo forests and finally walked to the lakeside. There was no one by the lake, and the lake was filled with thin mist. There was a row of bamboo rafts on the lake, drifting with the waves.
Ye Tianlai looked from a distance and saw a girl in green sitting on a bamboo raft, with her hair scattered, and her slender and straight legs exposed outside her skirt. Her lines were slender and graceful, just like a lotus root carved from two pieces of beautiful jade.
She held her knees, curled up slightly, lonely and helpless, like a budding green lotus, quietly watching the waves of the lake, as if in a daze.
The thin jade is silenced and the water is on the head, the wind is on the clear night and the dew is on the autumn. I also teach the fairy to stand next to it, and it is the best in the world.
Ye Tianlai's heart twitched violently, and he was almost unable to control his pity.
He stood on the shore and shouted, "Junior Sister Li, can you talk to me?"
Li Qingyao was a little surprised, turned her head to look at the lakeside, and was stunned for a moment.
Ye Tianlai didn't give Li Qingyao a chance to be idle for too long. He jumped, lit the toes on the lake, and in the blink of an eye he arrived on the bamboo raft.
"Senior Brother Ye, why are you here?" Li Qingyao seemed to be trying her best to stay calm.
Ye Tianlai saw a pot of wine beside Li Qingyao, and saw Li Qingyao's eyes soft. I guess she was just drinking to relieve her sorrow.
Ye Tianlai did not get too close to Li Qingyao, but kept a safe distance from her. He looked at Li Qingyao with sincere eyes: "I think Junior Sister Li, you are hiding from me, and I heard about your affairs with the Li family, so I want to come and chat with you... We are at least friends, right?"
"...Well." Li Qingyao was silent for a long time, nodded gently, smiled, and said quietly, "Senior Brother Ye, you always appear like this..."
Ye Tianlai was slightly stunned, and then he understood again. Li Qingyao had said before that she always protected her when she needed her. If she thought about it carefully, it was indeed a coincidence, and every time it was so coincidental.
"Maybe, this means we are destined to do it?"
"Senior Brother Ye, you're joking again." Li Qingyao denied him lightly.
Ye Tianlai sighed softly: "Junior Sister Li, if you have any troubles, you can talk to me... Even if you think I can't help you, at least, I can still be an audience."
"There is nothing to worry about!" Li Qingyao shook her head, her cheeks flushed, her drunken face was moving, and her eyes were hazy.
Ye Tianlai was silent, just looking at Li Qingyao and not speaking.
"If Senior Brother Ye is fine, please come back first. I will visit you and Junior Sister Yue tomorrow."
Ye Tianlai licked his lips and said slowly: "If nothing really happens, why are you drinking alone here?"
Li Qingyao lowered her head and said, "Tonight the starry sky is brilliant, and rafting and drinking is just a fun thing."
"Although I'm not good at writing and writing, if you don't mind, I want to have some fun." Ye Tian came with a hand and the wine pot flew into his hand automatically.
Most of the wine in the pot was empty, and Li Qingyao poured himself a cup, regardless of whether it was the cup that Li Qingyao had just used.
"Senior Brother Ye is really a scoundrel tonight." Li Qingyao looked at Ye Tian helplessly, "Okay, I've told you something troublesome, you'll go back tonight."
"Okay, one word is certain." Ye Tianlai nodded.
Li Qingyao blinked slightly, and her slender eyelashes were so beautiful under the starlight. The stars all over the sky seemed to be in her eyes, bright and clear: "Actually it's not a trouble... I'm just missing my parents. You also know that this kind of relationship is not easy to talk to, so I came here alone to relax. Apart from that, there is no other trouble."
She was really drunk and inadvertently, her words were repeated.
