Every single frown and every slight smile of hers, seemed to make him highly nervous. The girl would always laugh and tease that he was a foolish kid who had not seen the world, but even though that was the case, he was still happy deep inside his heart.
The desolate feeling of being all alone, seemed to be gradually leaving him.
They partnered up to travel together after that, and they spoke a lot to each other along the way, so it was only natural that they became familiar with each other. He came to know from the girl’s mouth that she came out to forge out a path for herself on her own, seeking to train herself up a little.
And he also shared with the girl his thoughts, and just as he had expected, the girl laughed at him, saying that he had read too many of those nonsensical books, which resulted in him having all these superfluous and impractical ideas.
Of course he did not mind it in the slightest, because as long as he had this person accompanying him by his side, no matter what she said to him, it would not matter. He then thought….. that he might have fallen in love with the girl.
Although he did not know how to win the girl’s heart, but maybe it was because he was sincere and earnest that the girl seemed to have a sort of soft spot for him. But exactly how she felt towards him, nobody knew.
In the end, as the two of them travelled, a third person suddenly appeared.
A man who was far more outstanding than him regardless of looks or in cultivation, and the very first time he appeared, the girl’s eyes had already been inextricably drawn to him.
But that man was very quiet and not prone to words, basically never ever carrying a conversation with either of them. But Lian Shi discovered that the usually passive girl would actually take the initiative to go speak to the man, even though the other party always showed her a cold expressionless face, she seemed to continue to enjoy doing that.
He then thought….. that all girls must like men like that. Handsome looking, deep and powerful cultivation. Even if their personality was a little cold and aloof, it would not stop them from liking the man.
Or they might even find him mysterious, which would attract their attention even more.
But he had not really liked that man right from the beginning. Not just because the girl was trying to get closer to him, but because the man possessed a pair of highly strange and unique violet eyes.
The pair of eyes that did not look like what a normal human would possess seemed to be filled with a devilish aura, which he just came to unconsciously dislike.
They were together for about a month’s time when the man seemed to get used to it, gradually becoming less cold, and would occasionally say a few words to them. That change in the man delighted the girl to no end and she loved to stick to the man even more from then on.
Seeing that happen, Lian Shi’s heart became depressed and tormented. But as he was in no position to make a stand, he could only try to avoid the two people, and his personality grew to become quiet and silent.
One night, he found himself unable to sleep and decided to go out of his room to take a walk. When he came back, he saw the man outside his room. Lian Shi did not say a single word to him and was going to just go in to get some sleep.
The man suddenly shifted his body and stood in his path.
Just as Lian Shi’s brows knitted up and he was about to say something, the man’s voice sounded out expressionlessly. “I do not have feelings for her.”
