Chapter 537 Our fate ends here (5)
Lu Ting gazed at the pavilion beside the lake with deep affection. There was an exquisite guqin in the pavilion. Wuyou approached slowly, stretched out her jade hand and gently stroked the smooth surface of the guqin, as if she could feel the traces of time it carried.
"You'er, do you still remember? Once upon a time, you played the piano and I played the flute. You always snuggled in my arms so gently, and we looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky together. We were so happy at that time!" Lu Tingshen's voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of sadness, and memories flooded into his heart like a tide.
However, just as Lu Tingshen was immersed in beautiful memories, Wuyou interrupted him softly: "Lu Tingshen..."
Lu Tingshen was slightly startled, and turned to look at Wuyou. She saw a gleam in her beautiful eyes and a faint smile on her lips: "Lu Tingshen, I will play your favorite song for you, okay?"
Lu Tingshen stared at Wuyou, his eyes full of tenderness and doting. Lu Tingshen smiled and nodded to show his agreement.
Wuyou sat down in front of the zither, adjusted her sitting posture gracefully, and then stretched out her hands again, gently touching the familiar strings. Time seemed to flow backwards, and Wuyou's mind also drifted back to the past. It had been too long since she had touched this zither, and she didn't expect to play it again in such a special situation today.
As the fingers plucked the strings, the clear and pleasant sound of the piano slowly rang out, like a spring flowing through, moistening people's hearts. Lu Tingshen stood quietly by the side, listening to the moving melody, and his thoughts were gradually brought back to the past.
At that time, they were carefree and truly loved each other, and every moment was filled with sweetness and warmth. However, fate played tricks on them, and various misunderstandings stood between them, eventually causing them to drift apart and fall into the dilemma of loving each other but being unable to stay together.
Now, in this modern society, they have reunited miraculously, and everything seems so magical and unbelievable. The piano music tells the past bit by bit, and those beautiful and sad things are intertwined, making the two feel deeply moved.
As the piano music became more melodious, it seemed as if they were the only two people around. When the song ended, tears welled up in Wuyou's eyes. Lu Tingshen gently held Wuyou's hand and said, "You'er, it's meaningless to pursue the misunderstandings of the past. Since God has allowed us to meet again here, it is giving us a chance to start over."
Wuyou looked up at Lu Tingshen, feeling mixed emotions. At this moment, a gust of wind blew and a leaf fell on the piano. Wuyou whispered, "The world is unpredictable, just like this leaf, we don't know where it will eventually drift to. Although we meet again, how can we easily forget the pain of the past."
Lu Tingshen held her in his arms: "Let's slowly heal the pain together. This time, I will never let go of your hand. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I am willing to face it with you."
Wuyou felt Lu Tingshen's warmth, and the ice in his heart seemed to melt. Lu nodded slightly, maybe time can really make people forget those painful memories that they don't want to recall. At this time, the setting sun cast its afterglow, shining on the two of them, like a beautiful painting.
That night, the night fell and the stars twinkled in the sky. After Wuyou and Lu Tingshen had dinner together, Lu Tingshen showed his meticulous care and personally escorted Wuyou back to her warm bedroom. This bedroom was carefully decorated, and every detail fit Wuyou's unique preferences, as if it was tailor-made for her.
Perhaps because she was too tired during the day, Wuyou fell into a sweet dream as soon as she lay down on the bed. Looking at Wuyou's quiet sleeping face, which was as lovable as a flower bud about to bloom, Lu Tingshen gently covered her with a quilt and then tiptoed out of the room.
After leaving Wuyou's bedroom, Lu Tingshen walked to the quiet study. Lu Tingshen took out his cell phone from his pocket and skillfully dialed a little-known unfamiliar number. Not long after, a familiar and low voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Is she in an okay mood?" the other party asked with concern.
Lu Tingshen nodded slightly and said slowly: "She is fine and has fallen asleep peacefully."
Hearing this answer, the person on the other end of the phone seemed relieved and continued, "That's good. Lu Tingshen, Yunxi will be in your hands from now on. You must not let me down and promise me that you will treat Yunxi well."
Lu Tingshen's eyes became firm, and he responded solemnly: "Gu Tingyan, I said that it is a fair competition between us. Now that you have entrusted Yunxi to me, even without your instructions, I will do my best to take good care of her. However, I am still waiting for you to come back and wait for a fair competition with you."
There was silence for a moment on the other end of the phone, and then only one sentence was said: "Lu Tingshen, Yun Xi is left to you, please be sure to protect her." Before the voice fell, the call came to an abrupt end.
Lu Tingshen stared at the phone screen quietly, his thoughts gradually flooding in like a tide, spreading far away...
