Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The two returned to their previous state of silence. They remained in the same position as before, standing silently at the edge of the battlefield. If there were any broken flags, corpses, or burning beacons on the battlefield, they would have looked like lone heroes.
But it was a pity that there was nothing. Outside of Champion City, the sun was still shining brightly and the grass was green. One could even smell the faint fragrance of the grass when the breeze blew past. Occasionally, there would be butterflies, bees and other little creatures flying around. The scenery was beautiful, and it greatly reduced the feeling of a lone hero. It was more like two men who were trying to figure out how to make their relationship public.
Well, actually, we were just overthinking it.
Fleeting Time narrowed his eyes as he stared into the distance with a faint smile on his face. He seemed to be lost in his thoughts. Bai Mo glanced at him, and followed his gaze. There were a few dense trees, and a small pond under the trees. It was a beautiful scene with blooming flowers, but it was a common sight in Fate. Bai Mo did not know what was so nice about it.
Bai Mo did not bother guessing where Fleeting Time's gaze was, or what Fleeting Time was interested in. That was not something that Bai Mo cared about anyway. To Bai Mo, Fleeting Time was just a hooligan who stole a girl. He had nothing in common with a hooligan. But in reality, there were many things that could not be helped.
For example, Bai Mo had the urge to beat the bastard up, or just kill him right there and then. But he could not do that. Even if they had nothing in common, he had to pretend that they had something in common.
"What do you see in her?" Bai Mo furrowed his brows and sighed, "Her looks are average, her figure is average, and her temper is even worse. She's so rotten that I can't even bear to look at her. I can't even find a hint of femininity in her. Why are you interested in her? "
Fleeting Time was not surprised by the question. Even though the question came from Bai Mo, a man who had high hopes for Ye Ci, he was not surprised. He retracted his gaze and looked at Bai Mo. The corners of his lips curled up, and he scratched his head, "You're right. Ye Ci is not a woman at all. Her looks are average, but she's skinny. She's skinny in the right places, and she's skinny in the wrong places as well. As for her bad temper, you don't even know how ruthless she was when she PK with me. I really feel like I killed her father. As for the good points that a woman should have, such as gentleness, understanding, cuteness, quietness, and obedience, she has none of them. So, what you said is not wrong at all. "
Fleeting Time stared at Bai Mo, and Bai Mo stared back at him. Bai Mo's eyes were like a bottomless pool of water. He could not see what was in them, nor could he see what was buried in them. He stared at Fleeting Time with a calm expression on his face.
"But what's the point of all this?" Fleeting Time blinked and retracted his gaze from Bai Mo. He then turned his attention back to the direction he had been looking at. The corners of his lips were still curled up, "So what if she's full of flaws? She's Ye Ci after all. "
Bai Mo had mixed feelings when he heard the answer. I'm the one who said a lot, and Fleeting Time agreed with me. But why do I feel displeased? It's a strange feeling. It's like I can talk about my own child's flaws, but I can't talk about it with an outsider. Of course, Bai Mo was most displeased by Fleeting Time's last sentence. So what if she's Ye Ci? So what if she's Ye Ci? I'm Bai Mo! What kind of bullsh * t answer is that?
Alright, that was indeed a bullsh * t answer. However, Bai Mo could not find a single word of rebuttal in his heart. He could only shut his mouth and continue to stand there, deep in thought.
Fleeting Time did not seem to have any intention of speaking either. He stared at the small pond with a smile on his face, as if there was a huge treasure there. Bai Mo followed Ye Ci's gaze and looked at the other side. After confirming that it was just a normal scene in Fate, Bai Mo was no longer concerned about it. He raised his head and narrowed his eyes at the beautiful blue sky. White clouds floated in the sky. It was so beautiful that it felt unreal.
Just when Bai Mo was at a loss for words, Fleeting Time suddenly spoke up. "What's the matter?" Bai Mo thought that the two of them were about to be mocked by the fujoshis in the guild. The sincerity in Fleeting Time's voice was enough to terrify Bai Mo. In Bai Mo's mind, Fleeting Time was a hooligan, a hooligan who would kidnap an innocent girl. How could you expect a hooligan to speak with sincerity? You might as well expect a pig in a slaughterhouse to sing "Farewell My Concubine" before it dies.
"In a way, you and I are enemies." Fleeting Time let out a sigh, "My words may sound unconvincing, but I still have to say it. Thank you for your hard work over the past 20 years. Leave the rest to me."
Bai Mo stared at Fleeting Time for a long time, and snorted coldly with his arms crossed, "Yi Qingchen, you're asking for a beating."
Fleeting Time chuckled and waved at Bai Mo. Bai Mo's face was so handsome that Fleeting Time was tempted to slap it with his shield. He then walked towards the pond, "You can't beat me, cousin." He then added, "Whether it's in the game or in real life."
Bai Mo snorted at Fleeting Time's words. He crossed his arms in front of his chest as he stared at Fleeting Time's back. His gaze then drifted to the small pond. Suddenly, he froze. A tree was reflected on the surface of the pond, and a figure was leaning against the tree trunk. It was a blurry silhouette, but the silvery hair was very eye-catching. All of this could only be seen from the reflection on the surface of the lake. From their point of view, they couldn't see anything at all.
Bai Mo finally understood why Fleeting Time had been staring at the tree.
He stared at Fleeting Time as he walked up to the tree. He then raised his head and said something to the person on the tree. The person on the tree seemed to have responded with something, and Fleeting Time said something again. The person on the tree remained motionless with his arms spread wide open. It was as if he was waiting for something. After a long time, to the point where Bai Mo was starting to get bored, a silhouette with long hair jumped down from the tree.
The silhouette landed squarely in Fleeting Time's arms, and the latter retracted his arms. Bai Mo let out a sigh of relief and walked in a random direction. He felt that he should ask Timely Rain about the guild's situation. Who knew what Golden Era would do next?
Bai Mo stopped after taking a few steps forward. He did not turn back, and continued to walk forward after standing there for a brief moment.
A grown girl can't be kept at home.
Bai Mo and Fleeting Time stood at the edge of the battlefield. Ye Ci let out a yawn as she stared at them from afar. She was feeling a little sleepy. She looked around and saw a rather dense tree not far away. Most importantly, one of its branches looked very suitable for people to lean on. Coincidentally, she had nothing to do at this time, so it seemed very natural for her to lean on that branch. With that being the case, she walked up to the tree, flipped herself onto the branch, and laid down on it.
The bright sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, and Ye Ci looked adorable. Ye Ci narrowed her eyes as she stared at the sunlight. She felt a little sleepy, and her eyelids began to droop. Ye Ci did not know how long she had been in this state, but her nerves were suddenly jolted awake. It was a loud cry, but it was not a sign of danger. Ye Ci's eyes flew open when she heard the clamor. She looked at the source of the clamor, and was met with a pair of eyes that were as black as water.
That person is too much. How dare he stare at me like that? He's not even trying to hide his intentions. There was a faint smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and the corners of his lips were gently raised, looking like the most beautiful peach blossoms in the spring breeze.
Ye Ci blinked at the peach blossom, and blinked again. She sat up on the branch and stared at Fleeting Time, "When did you get here?"
"You're already awake when I just arrived. Did I disturb your sleep? "Fleeting Time stared at Ye Ci with the same intoxicated expression on his face. Perhaps it was because she had just woken up, but her usual sharpness was replaced by a softness that made Fleeting Time's heart race.
Ye Ci shook her head.
Fleeting Time opened his arms wide, and said to Ye Ci, "Come down."
"Come down?" Repeated Ye Ci. She raised an eyebrow at Fleeting Time's action, "Fine, I'll come down. What's with that?"
Fleeting Time was exasperated by her lack of sensuality, "Jump down. I'll catch you."
Ye Ci wanted to say, Do you think I need you to catch me? Even if you're taller, it's still a piece of cake for me. But for some reason, she could not bring herself to say those words. She could only stare blankly at Fleeting Time's outstretched arms. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
