The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!

Chapter 123: Exactly the same as when I was a child

Lu Qingxiao held the jade pendant and waited patiently for Jiang Zhiyue to express his opinion.

Only the expectation in his eyes revealed that he wanted Jiang Zhiyue to take the jade pendant.

Jiang Zhiyue looked at the warm white jade pendant with a carved dragon on it and felt undecided.

Lu Qingxiao's words were so straightforward, of course she understood them.

But her elder sister’s words were still ringing in her ears, and she dared not disobey.

"I heard that the young general remained single for many years because his sweetheart got married, so this jade pendant..."

Lu Qingxiao's eyes shone, and he said firmly, "Absolutely not."

Jiang Zhiyue raised her eyes and looked at Lu Qingxiao.

Lu Qingxiao said: "I have never had a lover, and it is not because of this reason that I have not been married for many years."

Jiang Zhiyue looked at him silently, obviously not quite believing it.

Lu Qingxiao paused and asked, "Do you remember Cen Mo?"

Jiang Zhiyue looked at the painting in his hand and nodded: "Yeah."

"I didn't finish my last story. Would you like to hear me continue?"

Lu Qingxiao extended his hand and motioned Jiang Zhiyue to sit in the pavilion and listen.

After all, Jiang Zhiyue was trapped here and couldn't leave. He glanced at him, walked to the stone table and sat down beside it.

Lu Qingxiao smiled and sat opposite Jiang Zhiyue.

Jiang Zhiyue curled her lips when she saw that he was going to sit opposite her.

The unhappy expression was shown on his face without any concealment.

Lu Qingxiao glanced at her and said softly, "His childhood sweetheart, who grew up with him, learned that he died in battle and has remained faithful to him ever since. She has not married yet."

Jiang Zhiyue was startled. She thought...

"For so many years, I have been guarding that tomb alone."

Jiang Zhiyue looked at Lu Qingxiao's calm expression today, and recalled Lu Qingxiao's gloomy expression that day in the Huguo Temple. He felt very upset about the death of General Cen.

Looking at him again today, he is in a different mood than he was back then.

"I once thought that if I died in battle one day, why would I implicate others? Therefore, I never mentioned this matter, and my family members were all suffering because of me."

Lu Qingxiao calmly expressed the knot that had been in his heart for many years, and the moment he said it, he seemed to be free of any burden.

Jiang Zhiyue didn't expect that the reason why Lu Qingxiao had been unwilling to discuss marriage for many years was because of this?

She was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to start.

Seeing Jiang Zhiyue's troubled expression, Lu Qingxiao said slowly, "I received guidance from an expert some time ago, and the knot in my heart has been resolved."

Hearing what Lu Qingxiao said, the curiosity in Jiang Zhiyue's eyes was about to overflow. He has been stubborn for many years, who can persuade him?

Lu Qingxiao now thought that every move of Jiang Zhiyue was cute, and he could see all her curiosity.

"The obsession of youth has accumulated for many years, and once discovered, it cannot withstand scrutiny."

Lu Qingxiao smiled and didn't seem to be bothered by the matter. Instead, he looked relaxed.

Jiang Zhiyue pursed her lips and asked, "So you've come to your senses?"

Lu Qingxiao glanced at her and smiled, "Not really."

"The man said, 'Everyone lives, and they must die. We know today, this moment, but we don't know what the future will bring, let alone natural disasters or man-made disasters.'"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiyue was stunned for a moment, then repeated it in a low voice, as if he had been hit in the heart by a heavy hammer.

Yes, in this life, people only know the present, who can predict what will happen in the future?

Even though she had the chance to be reborn, she still could not have anticipated the assassin in Shuhe Tower.

What we can do is so small. Most things in the world are linked together. How do we know which link we are in?

Jiang Zhiyue suddenly saw Lu Qingxiao's face gradually becoming clearer, and suddenly he felt more confident.

Many things have changed in this life. Who knows what the ending will be until the day we die?

"The person who said this must have great ambitions, which is admirable," said Jiang Zhiyue.

Seeing her mind shift for a moment and then return to normal, Lu Qingxiao continued, "After hearing what she said, I can finally face my true feelings."

Jiang Zhiyue believed what Lu Qingxiao said. He was a different person from Duan Hongyu.

In other words, the major general of the Tiger Guard Battalion, a killing god on the battlefield, always kept his word and would not lie.

He was willing to tell her about the knot in his heart that had been bothering him for many years, and was extremely frank, so Jiang Zhiyue believed him.

"So, you didn't have a crush on Xie Fu? You didn't refuse to get married for many years because of her? You didn't wait for her to divorce?"

Before Jiang Zhiyue could say anything, he saw Lu Qingxiao looking at him with an indescribable expression.

She immediately said, "It is. You can find out if you just ask around."

Lu Qingxiao, however, caught the word "inquire" and looked at her: "Have you inquired about me?"

In just five words, Jiang Zhiyue could even hear joy in his tone?

The young general, who clearly never showed his emotions, suddenly did not hide it in front of her.

"You don't have to listen to what others say. If there's anything you want to know, just come and ask me." Lu Qingxiao smiled faintly, "At least I won't tell you false information."

Jiang Zhiyue was dissatisfied and wanted to argue.

Lu Qingxiao took out the warm white jade pendant with a carved dragon and handed it to Jiang Zhiyue.

Warm jade is of excellent quality and its warm texture can be seen at a glance.

Lu Qingxiao's hands, which had been practicing martial arts for many years, looked a little rough compared to the warm jade, and did not look like the hands of a nobleman from an aristocratic family at all.

Only his palm was broad, and the warm white jade carved dragon pendant looked small in his palm.

Jiang Zhiyue hesitated, she was not sure about her feelings.

Lu Qingxiao saw her hesitation and sighed, "It has been with you for many years, longer than it has been with me. It should have been yours."

"Don't be afraid. No one will know about this anymore."

Lu Qingxiao spoke to comfort Jiang Zhiyue and stated his attitude: "You are the only person I want to cherish. No matter what happened in the past, if you don't want to, I will never pester you. The jade pendant is not included in this."

Jiang Zhiyue didn't expect him to suddenly express his feelings, and she sat on the stone bench staring at him in a daze.

Lu Qingxiao's eyes softened and he smiled: "Don't be afraid."

Jiang Zhiyue looked at him and thought about what she thought was their first meeting.

He considerately covered her with the blood splattered by the assassin, thinking that she was still the little girl who would cry loudly when she saw a farmer killing a chicken.

At that time he also said 'Don't look'.

The phrase 'don't look' is so similar to today's phrase 'don't be afraid'.

Jiang Zhiyue looked down at the warm white jade pendant with a carved dragon on it, closed his eyes, and made a decision.

Lu Qingxiao looked at her silently, waiting for her.

Jiang Zhiyue thought about it, reached out to take the jade pendant, and put it carefully into his sleeve.

Lu Qingxiao's eyes lit up, and when he was about to speak, he saw her stand up.

Lu Qingxiao was puzzled as he watched Jiang Zhiyue open the painting box on the table. After taking out the painting, he took out a dagger with a ruby ​​jade handle.

Lu Qingxiao almost laughed out of anger. She was exactly the same as when she was a child.

As soon as she got unhappy, she returned all the things to him, even stuffing the fresh taro and purple rice cake that she had only taken a bite of into his arms.

Jiang Zhiyue glanced at him and muttered in a low voice: "You know, if you make me unhappy, I will return it to you sooner or later."

Lu Qingxiao was convinced: "Little Yueliang's temper hasn't changed at all."

Jiang Zhiyue glanced at him, and Lu Qingxiao smiled and shook his head.

Fu Li watched from afar, unable to hide the smile on her face.
