The best restaurants in Qingzhou City were located on both sides of the lake. The view from the lake was picturesque.
At the moment, there was a table of people enjoying the view by the window of one of the restaurants.
Murong Qiu was among them, but he was just a guest. Everyone else at the table was of a higher status than him.
For example, the young man sitting at the head of the table was an important figure from the East Sea Prefecture. Next to him was Wei Feng, the Lord of Qingzhou City.
"Murong Qiu, is there any news from Mount Tianyao?" the young man from the East Sea Prefecture asked.
"Our people are clearing a path in Mount Tianyao. We received news this afternoon that there's a mysterious area that might be hiding something," Murong Qiu replied respectfully.
"If this continues, my people will all be buried on Mount Tianyao. Shouldn't you send more people over?" Xia Fan asked Murong Qiu.
"I'll bring it up with my father when I get back," Murong Qiu and Wei Feng both nodded.
"Okay." Xia Fan nodded and said to Murong Qiu, "I hope you're not mistaken."
"The Earth Elemental Pavilion Lord is my father's junior. I experienced it myself. I can't be wrong. A dragon did appear on Mount Tianyao," Murong Qiu said with certainty.
"Alright." Xia Fan looked out of the window. The fireworks were dazzling. On the lakeside, two figures were particularly eye-catching. It was because the woman was too beautiful. He pointed at them and asked, "Who are they?"
Murong Qiu looked in that direction. When he saw the two figures, his face darkened.
"Hua Jieyu, the daughter of Hua Fengliu, the strongest cultivator in the City of Qingzhou. Ye Futian, he used to be a disciple of Qingzhou Academy but later rebelled and left," Murong Qiu said.
"Hua Fengliu?" The middle-aged man beside Xia Fan's eyes flashed. "The Guqin Devil, Hua Fengliu?"
"My father did some research. In the City of Donghai, Hua Fengliu is known as the Guqin Devil," Murong Qiu nodded.
"So, that's Hua Fengliu and his daughter," the middle-aged man said thoughtfully.
"The one who was crippled by the Art Saint?" Xia Fan looked interested. He didn't expect to meet someone who was once famous in the City of Donghai.
"Yes." The middle-aged man next to him nodded. "This girl should be considered a member of that family. It's best if you don't have any ideas. Otherwise, it'll be very troublesome if something happens."
He knew what kind of person this young master was, so he deliberately reminded him.
"I know what I'm doing. Let's go down and say hello." Xia Fan smiled, then stood up and walked out of the restaurant. The middle-aged man followed behind him. The group left the restaurant and walked in the direction of Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu.
Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu were quietly enjoying the beautiful scene when they sensed something. They turned around and saw a group of people walking towards them. Ye Futian's eyes glinted when he saw Murong Qiu among them.
"Miss Jieyu, I am Xia Fan of the East Sea Prefecture." Xia Fan stopped in front of Hua Jieyu. His devilish eyes were filled with undisguised admiration. The girl in front of him was more beautiful than any woman he had ever met.
"What's the matter?" Hua Jieyu's tone was cold.
"I've always admired the Guqin Devil, but unfortunately, I've never had the chance to meet him. It's my honor to meet you here today, Miss Jieyu, so I came to disturb you. I wonder if Miss Jieyu would do me the honor of joining me in the restaurant?" Xia Fan smiled warmly. Ye Futian frowned. This Xia Fan was treating him like he didn't exist.
"No," Hua Jieyu said with a smile, but her smile was distant.
The people around Xia Fan frowned. She didn't give him any face at all.
"Sorry to disturb you." Xia Fan was silent for a moment, then smiled and turned to leave. The moment he turned, the smile in his eyes disappeared and was replaced by coldness.
"What a killjoy," Ye Futian said, a little depressed. He reached out as if he wanted to grab something.
"What do you want?" Hua Jieyu dodged his hand and looked at him with a smile.
"Didn't you say we were going to confirm our relationship?" Ye Futian asked innocently.
"Yeah, didn't we already confirm our relationship?" Hua Jieyu's smile was a little playful.
"Fox, how could you do this?" Ye Futian felt wronged. He couldn't touch her after confirming their relationship?
"What about me?" Hua Jieyu looked at him with a smile and said, "Since we're going to be together, you're not allowed to harm other women in the future. Also, no matter where I am, you have to find me."
"No, we're not close enough." Ye Futian felt like he had been tricked.
"You can try. Father said you're not being honest and told me to go home early. I'm going to leave." Hua Jieyu stared at Ye Futian. There was a hint of reluctance in her beautiful eyes. They might be separated tomorrow. If he didn't see her, would he blame her?
Ye Futian looked at her with a wronged expression. Seeing Ye Futian's expression, Hua Jieyu couldn't bear to see him like this. She stretched out her jade-like hand and held it in front of Ye Futian.
However, Ye Futian didn't take it. He still looked at her and said, "Are you going to leave?"
Hua Jieyu's beautiful eyes froze. Ye Futian's "leave" was obviously not just referring to this moment of separation.
"After falling in love, you left without saying goodbye and then began a long journey to find love. Don't you think it's very unfair and cruel for me to have such a melodramatic plot happen to me?" Ye Futian stared at Hua Jieyu. After a few months together, how could he not know what kind of personality Fox had? Even if she liked him, she wouldn't take the initiative. Moreover, with the words from before, how could Ye Futian not understand what had happened?
There was a hint of sadness in Hua Jieyu's beautiful eyes. She lowered her head. Her eyes were a little red, but she didn't know how to explain it.
"Then what do you want me to do?" Hua Jieyu's voice was low. She raised her head and stared at Ye Futian with her beautiful eyes.
Looking at the flawless face in front of him and the lovely eyes, Ye Futian's heart instantly melted. He said gloomily, "So what if it's melodramatic. Who told me to fall in love with Fox?"
That was how lethal a beauty was …
Hearing Ye Futian's words, Hua Jieyu smiled sweetly. She felt especially good. Seeing Ye Futian's somewhat sad expression, she said softly, "Alright, then I'll make it up to you. How about I stay here tonight and stay with you?"
"Ah … Wouldn't that be too soon?" Ye Futian's eyes lit up. Stay with me tonight?
Seeing Ye Futian's dirty expression, Hua Jieyu stepped on Ye Futian's foot. "What are you thinking? I didn't mean that."
"What did you mean?" Ye Futian blinked.
"You … I regret it." Hua Jieyu turned around, but her arm was grabbed by Ye Futian. Ye Futian said softly, "I'll take you back."
"Okay." Hua Jieyu nodded lightly. This time, she didn't struggle and let Ye Futian hold her hand.
"Let's take a boat first," Ye Futian said. Hua Jieyu nodded lightly. Then, the two of them boarded a pleasure boat and went down Qinghai Lake.
There were many pleasure boats on Qinghai Lake. The lake was sparkling, and fireworks were still blooming in the sky. A young man and a young woman sat next to each other at the bow of the boat. They looked like they were in a painting. Sometimes, tourists would look at them with envy.
At that moment, a pleasure boat came toward them. There were a few people standing at the bow of the boat. Two of them were stunned when they saw Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu.
"General Qin, Senior Sister," Ye Futian called out.
Qin Shuai was dressed simply. He was accompanying his family for the New Year like an ordinary person. Seeing the picturesque figure, he gave Ye Futian a thumbs up.
"Very romantic," Qin Yi said with a smile.
Ye Futian smiled shakily, as if he had done something bad. The pleasure boat passed by. A voice beside him said, "Senior Sister, you have a great figure."
"Yeah." Ye Futian nodded subconsciously. Then, he realized that something was wrong. He saw Hua Jieyu looking at him with a smile.
"But I still prefer a fox," Ye Futian said immediately.
"Hmph." Hua Jieyu snorted coquettishly and looked forward. Then, she felt a demonic claw reaching for her waist and gently wrapping around it. Hua Jieyu's body trembled and she let Ye Futian do it. She tilted her body slightly and rested her head on Ye Futian's shoulder.
At that moment, it was peaceful and beautiful. The distance between their hearts seemed to be getting closer and closer.
It was already late at night when they returned to the side courtyard of Qingzhou Academy. Compared to the bustling city of Qingzhou, the academy was much quieter. Hua Fengliu had already fallen asleep.
She walked into her room quietly and realized that Ye Futian had followed her into her room. She couldn't help but blush slightly.
"You won't chase me away so late, will you? It's not safe at night." Before Hua Jieyu could speak, Ye Futian spoke first. Seeing Hua Jieyu glaring at him, he said, "Do you have the heart to do that?"
"It's your own room." Hua Jieyu looked at the shameless guy.
"Are you leaving tomorrow? I still want to see you a few more times. Otherwise, I don't know when I'll be able to see you again," Ye Futian said softly. Although she knew it was sweet talk, Hua Jieyu's heart still softened. She glared at him hatefully and decided to make it up to him today.
She walked to the side of the bed and took off her clothes, revealing her perfect curves. Ye Futian's eyes lit up. Then, he saw Hua Jieyu smiling at him. "How's my figure?"
"Perfect." Ye Futian felt a little hot.
Hua Jieyu smiled proudly and then burrowed under the covers. She turned her back to him and blushed.
"What a torturous little vixen." Ye Futian was depressed. Women were indeed vengeful …
"I can't see you like this," Ye Futian said again. Hua Jieyu ignored him, but after a while, she still slowly turned around to face him. "Right there. Don't come any closer."
Saying this, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Ye Futian quietly admired the perfect face in front of him. He felt a faint warmth.
After what seemed like a long time, Hua Jieyu opened her eyes and found that Ye Futian was still looking at her. She couldn't help but whisper, "I can't sleep."
"I'll go play for you," Ye Futian said softly. Then, he stood up and left. After a while, the sound of the guqin could be heard outside.
It was peaceful and peaceful.
The music was melodious. It seemed to contain a hazy love, but also seemed to contain the sadness of parting.
Hua Jieyu closed her eyes and gradually fell asleep. However, before she knew it, two lines of tears fell from her beautiful eyes. But the expression on her perfect face was still a smile.
So, this was what it felt like to be in love?
The warmth of first love, the heartbeat of holding hands, and the sadness of parting. It all went straight to the heart.
…
On the morning of the first day of year 10000 of the Divine Prefecture Calendar.
A black eagle landed at Qingzhou Academy and waited outside Hua Fengliu's courtyard. In the courtyard, Hua Jieyu had freshened up and was wearing a long green dress. She looked like a fairy that had descended to the mortal world. She always had a smile on her face. Her beauty was unparalleled.
She walked to the door of the courtyard and looked back with a smile. She saw that the young man was still playing the guqin. His clear eyes were looking at her. The two looked at each other and smiled, as if there was no need to say anything.
There was no solemn oath, no promise that would last forever. There was only a smile, and then the girl walked away. She walked up to the black eagle and rode the wind. Soon, she turned into a black dot and disappeared.
