What are they doing? Why are they looking at me? That was Tang Ling's first thought.
He was a little slow and his mind was a little numb. As smart as he was, he could not figure out many problems at the first moment.
For example, he clearly knew this Young Master Long!
Back in the grasslands, under the Purple Moon, they had met each other less than 10 meters apart.
Young Master Long was an important person in the Stardust Council and Higan was with him? Who was Higan?
Or … What else could it be? Tang Ling clenched his fists, but he could not figure it out.
Tang Ling's world was vast. He never thought that a person's friendship needed to be labeled.
Just like how he and Yu were brothers, it did not affect the relationship between him and Orston, right?
But … Was it the same?
Tang Ling's heart rumbled with bitterness, and it was something he had never felt before.
The bitterness rumbled in his heart and instantly rushed to his brain, into his blood, and flowed to every corner of his body.
The strange feeling blanked Tang Ling's mind, and even his fingertips started to hurt.
What's going on? Tang Ling clenched his fists and slowly lowered his head.
He was also a proud person, so he did not want the people around him to notice anything unusual about him.
"Tang Ling …" Ro Xin wanted to say something, but before she could, she warned Ro Li and Han Xing with her gaze.
Judging from the looks of it, the two of them wanted to say something. However, on second thought, they would not say anything nice!
Tang Ling did not care about her. He looked up at the screen again.
On the screen, Young Master Long was walking towards the Desperado Ring step by step, and the camera zoomed in on Higan.
Whether it was intentional or not, Higan was looking at the camera. Her eyes were sad and heavy as if she was trying to say something.
**
"Tang Ling, are you watching? If you are filled with questions, can you feel me?
"Tang Ling, wait for me, okay? Wait for me to repay everything. This is what I want from the bottom of my heart.
"Tang Ling, wait for me, okay? I'm not burdened, so I can stand beside you …
"Tang Ling, wait for me. This is my only hope."
Higan was beautiful. Her eyes were lively as if they could speak. She stared into the camera, wanting to convey her feelings to someone at this moment, this one glance, this one instant.
Therefore, at that very moment, under the camera's lens, the lingering coldness in Higan's eyes faded away and was replaced by deep sadness. It was as if there were endless words that could not be expressed, mixed with strong emotions as she stared at someone.
In front of her, there was no one at all.
But this did not prevent the hearts of many people from seeing the other side of the instant, and seeing her surging with such intense grief.
Higan's face did not look like a painting because no matter how beautiful the person in the painting was, she was still a dead thing.
On the contrary, everything about her was the truth that had landed in the human world … That was why it was so infectious.
In her heart, she was screaming at Tang Ling non-stop.
If she had not experienced Tang Long's attitude, if she had not made this stubborn and lonely decision, she would not have felt her true feelings for Tang Ling.
She wanted to stand beside him. She wanted to do anything. Even if she had to sit across from him, she wanted to be by his side.
The sense of security, dependence, kindness, and … throbbing!
Yes, throbbing. It finally came under the strong longing and concern.
Did she like him? She still did not know. She just understood that some feelings could not be measured by time. Every second, every second, every second, every second, every second, every second, and every second that they met, it was all destined!
**
Higan's gaze landed on Tang Ling's heart.
At that very moment, Tang Ling felt like he could hear the throbbing in his heart.
Everything became clearer, but it was not clear enough.
The only thing that he could see through was Higan's eyes.
They had not spent much time together, but Higan had given Tang Ling many different kinds of gazes. Curious, questioning, smiling, naughty …
Regardless of the gazes, there was a sense of intimacy deep in her eyes. No one else could understand it except for Tang Ling, who could faintly feel the intimacy deep in his heart.
Some things were subtle and unspeakable. It was a tacit understanding between the two of them.
At that very moment, Tang Ling saw the intimacy in Higan's eyes when she looked at the camera.
When she looked at Young Master Long, her eyes did not show the same emotion. Even when she looked at everything else, her eyes did not show the same emotion.
Therefore, at that very moment, Tang Ling was certain that Higan was talking to him through the camera.
She might not necessarily be talking to him because she was not sure whether he could see her or not.
Nevertheless, she must have a lot of things in her heart that she wanted to tell him.
Tang Ling was sad and sad at the same time. He had a lot of questions and even felt depressed because he was not in a position to criticize her.
However, Higan's gaze shattered everything. All that was left in Tang Ling's heart was a tacit understanding that only the two of them could understand.
Tang Ling felt the tacit understanding between them, so he condensed the emotion into a single thought: trust.
His clenched fists loosened. The complicated expression on his face that he tried to hide but failed was replaced by calmness. He stood up and said to Han Xing, "Let's go back."
He then told Ro Xin and Ro Li, "Come find me at Dvesha Moha later. I still have work to do today, so I won't be inviting you."
Han Xing looked at Tang Ling with a sour expression. "Tang Ling, have you … lost your mind? You don't have to hide it. "
Ro Li gulped nervously. He looked at Tang Ling carefully and said, "Bro, if you want to cry, just cry! I'm going to follow you from now on. What should I do if you go crazy? "
Tang Ling looked at the two of them. His gaze was so deep that no one could guess what he was thinking. He asked, "Why did you say that I've lost my mind? Did something happen? "
This sentence immediately caused the three people present to be speechless. Even Gu Dao, who clearly wanted to watch the show, was stunned.
That's right, what happened? The relationship between Higan and Tang Ling was just the imagination of others, but regardless of whether it was flirtatious or overly intimate, the two of them did not confirm what kind of relationship they had.
Alright, since they didn't confirm their relationship, it could only be said that they were friends.
Then, as a friend, did Higan have to be responsible for Tang Ling? She didn't even need to explain.
Who said that if she was Tang Ling's friend, she could not be Tang Ling's enemy's … Hmm, someone close to him?
Everyone has their own freedom.
"But …" Ro Li still wanted to say something.
Tang Ling placed his hand on Ro Li's shoulder and said, "No buts. I'm leaving."
After that, he nodded at Gu Dao and smiled at Ro Xin. He then turned around, stretched his body, and walked out.
Han Xing was at a loss as he looked around. He quickly stood up and followed Tang Ling.
"Tang Ling." Ro Xin could not help but call out to him as she watched him walk away.
Sadness surged in her heart. She was sad for Tang Ling. No matter how calm Tang Ling was at the moment, could his heart really stay calm? Maybe it was because he did not have the right to do so, so he had to suppress his emotions.
With that in mind, Ro Xin's heart ached and she could not help but blame Higan.
"Hmm?" Tang Ling turned around.
"I know. Whether it's questioning or blaming, I have no right to do so. But I need you to give me an idea. Otherwise, I won't be able to stop worrying. "Ro Xin took two steps forward.
"If you need it, I-I can be with you."
"It's not necessary." Tang Ling smiled. His eyes were filled with gratitude for Ro Xin as he said word by word, "If I don't give you an idea, you won't be able to stop worrying, will you?
But before I say it, all of you have to understand something. "
As he spoke, he turned around to Han Xing and the Ro siblings with a solemn gaze.
"First and foremost, we are friends. Thank you for worrying about me. All you need to know is that you don't have to persuade me about certain things. It's just my personal opinion and belief.
"Ro Xin, I only have one thought, and that is to wait with faith."
"Is there a result?" Being smart, Ro Xin naturally understood what Tang Ling meant.
Tang Ling was expressing that no matter what the situation was, he would always trust Higan.
He also believed that one day in the future, Higan would tell him something. She might even explain something to him, so all he had to do was wait.
On top of that, no matter what Higan said, Tang Ling would probably accept it.
However, Tang Ling also knew that even if Higan did not explain anything to him, it would still be reasonable for her to cut off all contact with him and not say a word to him.
Why should he trust her and wait? Or was this what Tang Ling was trying to tell his friend? Some things were better left unsaid?
How silly.
Feeling a little sad, Ro Xin could not hold back her impulse and said, "Why don't you go to her? You don't have to hide your concern. "
She really cared about Tang Ling.
"Bro, should I go with you?" Han Xing said weakly. No matter what, even though he thought Tang Ling's attitude was a little silly, deep in his heart, he felt that it was very manly of him.
"It's fine. She'll be troubled, won't she?" Tang Ling said nonchalantly. He turned around and looked at the sky outside the door. It was drizzling non-stop, which made him feel a little depressed.
Yesterday, she said that she would be troubled.
Was today the result of his actions?
Tang Ling did not continue his speculation. Since he had decided to trust her, what else was there to speculate about?
Was she from the Stardust Council? Was she close to his nemesis, Young Master Long? Fine, it was not important.
Before he met Higan, everything had already happened. Should he still care about the past that Higan could not change?
During his time in the Hope Barrier, he did not learn many things, but he did learn one thing. Some friendships transcended standpoints, just like how he was with Yu, Orston, and Christina back then.
Back then, he was a fool. He thought he would go against the entire Safety Sector No. 17 and he even rejected the friendship!
As a matter of fact, if it was really a friendship … Hmm, then it was real.
Tang Ling's state of mind opened up a little more.
He strode out of the room, leaving Ro Xin staring at his back with unerasable worry in her eyes.
"Sis, this …" Ro Li did not know what to say. He walked up to his sister and hugged her.
On the other hand, the old man, Gu Dao, stared at Tang Ling's back for a long time before he muttered softly, "He does look like a man."
