Chapter 938: Opposing Worlds (33)
Xing Rong lay lazily and relaxed on her side, facing Ling'er. She seemed to have her eyes closed, as if she was resting, but in fact, she was listening attentively to Ling'er beside her, expressing her inner thoughts.
Ling'er's voice was heavy and sad as she recounted the many things that happened between her and Mo Mo after they separated, as well as her experiences after becoming a wizard. The more she spoke, the more helpless and confused she felt.
"Little Star, have you ever thought that the Realm Lord Brother asked you to be a tasker for another purpose? Could it be that he wants you to slowly develop feelings for him in the process of completing the task? Make you truly fall in love with him?" Ling'er suddenly changed the subject and asked this unexpected question.
She lay beside Xing Rong, supporting her chin with both hands, turned her head slightly, and stared at Xing Rong's peaceful face, as if trying to find some clues from her expression.
But Xing Rong seemed unusually calm. She didn't even open her eyes and simply replied, "That's the truth, but so what?"
Ling'er was obviously a little surprised by Xing'er's reaction. She continued to ask, "Don't you think he's lying to you by doing this?"
The corners of Xing'an's lips curled up slightly, forming a faint smile, but her eyes remained closed, as if she didn't care at all about the question. She said lazily, "Why did he lie to me?"
This time, Xing Rong didn't give Ling'er a chance to answer. She continued, "Ling'er, not all questions have clear answers. You just said so much, and although I can't immediately make you understand that many things are actually very simple, I think you need to relax right now."
Ling'er was a little confused by Xing'er's words. She was about to ask what Xing'er meant, but she saw Xing'er slowly turn over like a lazy cat, lying flat on the bed, and then said drowsily: "Go to sleep first, I'll take you somewhere tomorrow."
She didn't know why, but she always felt an endless sense of security around Xing Rong, as if she was her safe haven, allowing her to be herself without any disguise or concealment. Here, she could express her emotions without any scruples, and whether she was happy or sad, she would always receive her understanding and tolerance.
This feeling was very special, something she had never experienced before, even when she was with her brother, the Realm Master. Ling'er quietly gazed at Xing'er's sleeping face, and seeing her calm and peaceful face, her heart gradually became peaceful.
Gradually, Ling'er felt that her body and mind were greatly relaxed. She lay beside Xingrong peacefully and soon fell into a sweet dream.
It was not until noon the next day that Xing Rong and Ling'er woke up. They had a simple meal, and then after Xing Rong had explained some things, he took Ming Xi and Ling'er out.
As soon as he opened the door, Xing Rong's eyes inadvertently swept across the door opposite, but found that the door was open, and Tian Jie was leaning quietly against the door for some reason, not moving.
Xing Rong simply glanced at him indifferently and quickly looked away, as if he were just an insignificant stranger. She took Ming Xi and Ling Er and walked straight to the elevator and pressed the elevator button.
Tian Jie's eyes never left Xing Rong's figure. When he saw that Xing Rong ignored him, he couldn't help but feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He pursed his lips, then silently closed the door and followed them.
Mingxi noticed that Tianjie was following them from behind, and she couldn't help but pouting. She looked up at the "shameless" old man with an unhappy face, as if she was quite dissatisfied with his behavior.
Tian Jie followed them into the elevator slowly. The elevator door slowly closed, and the atmosphere in the small space seemed a little weird.
Ming Xi finally couldn't contain his dissatisfaction anymore. He glared at Tian Jie and asked bluntly, "Hey, uncle, what do you want? If you want to fight, just do it directly. Don't dilly-dally! If you don't want to fight, then stay still and don't follow us around like a little tail!"
