Hearing Nangong Liuyun’s words, Su Luo’s mouth pouted, and she pushed him, unhappy.
Su Luo’s force was very gentle, more like she was tickling him. Nangong Liuyun lightly laughed as he grabbed her hand and brought it into his embrace, pinching the tip of her nose insolently: “Do you really want to know?”
“Mhm!” Su Luo felt curious.
“Guess.” Nangong Liuyun teased her.
Su Luo tilted her head and pondered for a moment: “With your nature, if you were to kill them, you could just casually do so, you wouldn’t take them far away… Could it be that they were sentenced to 100 years of imprisonment?”
Nangong Liuyun’s dashing 1 raised slightly.
Su Luo did not look at him and continued to ponder: “Imprisonment of a hundred years can be used, but with this, the manpower of these few people would go to waste… huh, I’ve got it!”
Su Luo’s eyes suddenly brightened, gazing at Nangong Liuyun: “Did you guys send them to the Extraterritorial Battlefield?”
That was many tens of thousands of miles away and were in dire need of cannon fodder, so sending these four people over there was the best way to deal with this.
Nangong Liuyun chuckled. His devastatingly beautiful face was radiant and full of pride.
“Quickly say it, is my guess right!” Su Luo wrapped herself around Nangong Liuyun’s slender yet strong waist, her small face tilted up with a touch of smugness in her eyes.
“Mhm, your guess can be counted as right.” Although Nangong Liuyun’s expression appeared arrogant, the bottoms of his eyes were full of warm happiness.
His Luo girl had always been the smartest, whatever he was thinking or wanted to do, she was able to tell with just a glance. In this world there would never be another Su Luo so intelligent and understanding of him, there was only one of her in this world. How could he not cherish her?
Nangong Liuyun’s heart was so moved that both his arms tightened and wrapped around her fiercely.
Su Luo was pressed tightly into his chest, and the air in her lungs was nearly squeezed out.
“Do you have to leave now?” Su Luo lowered her voice.
Nangong Liuyun stood upright and tense. His silence, his forceful hug—they all proved that Su Luo’s guess was right, Nangong Liuyun indeed had to leave.
“You…” Su Luo was very reluctant to let him go, she buried her face in his chest, muffling her voice.
Truly couldn’t bear to let him go. If he could always stay by her side, how nice would that be?
Nangong Liuyun let out a long sigh. He had already been out for long enough, if he still didn’t return, that woman would inevitably suspect something.
“I’ll leave tomorrow.” Nangong Liuyun patted Su Luo’s slender spine, soothing her.
So he was still leaving tomorrow…? Su Luo’s head rubbed back and forth against Nangong Liuyun’s chest like a puppy.
Nangong Liuyun smiled lightly, he was even more reluctant to part with her than she was, and if possible, he would not want to leave her for a minute.
“I promise you, by the time you are promoted to Grandmaster Apothecary, I will definitely return to your side.” After getting the Dark Heart and the Crystal Ball of Departed Souls, Nangong Liuyun was confident that within six months his strength would increase greatly.
“Then, can you come to see me once every month?” Su Luo looked up, her big black and white eyes moist with a hint of expectation.
Her Fallen Red Lotus proved that being with Nangong Liuyun was effective, and although it could not yet cure the root cause, at the very least it could help relieve his pain. Just at the thought of him alone in the dark enduring the pain, Su Luo’s heart found it extremely hard to bear.
Nangong Liuyun stroked Su Luo’s back, sighing lightly, and did not answer.
The two people embraced each other.
The time passed by, little by little.
No matter how much they couldn’t bear it, the second day still arrived.
By the time Su Luo woke up, Nangong Liuyun’s figure was no longer by her side.
