Chương 720: Chapter 716 Bai Chenxiang's Heart Returns_1
Moonlight spilled into the small courtyard of the Min Clan.
At this moment, the once noisy courtyard had returned to silence, the central bonfire long extinguished, with occasional sparks dancing.
They rolled on the ground before dying out.
Scattered tables and chairs, along with empty wine jars, were strewn all around.
The clan leaders of the four great families and the members of the Bai Family had all retreated to their rooms to rest, except for that stunningly beautiful girl who could not sleep.
Resting her cheek in her hand, she sat on the stone steps in front of the hall,
Her Beautiful Eyes forlorn as she surveyed the mess of the courtyard, her smooth legs, fair as jade, seemed to reflect the Yuehua.
Her rosy lips uttered a plaintive murmur.
"You… you, what kind of man are you?"
"Why were you so warm to others before, and now so cold?"
"Could it be, you were only amused by me, playing with and teasing my feelings?"
Bai Chenxiang's voice was full of grievances, her heart filled with incomprehension and confusion, feeling Luo Yu was like a man enshrouded in mystery.
She found him unfathomable, yet her curiosity had plunged her deeply into it, unable to extricate herself.
Gradually, Bai Chenxiang's hands that rested upon her legs clenched tightly together, her red lips lightly parted.
"Smelly Luo Yu, bad Luo Yu!"
"You fickle, smelly man."
"The grandfathers may be afraid of you, but this lady is not, if you dare show up in front of me, I will…"
"I will…"
Bai Chenxiang repeated several times, eventually losing her confidence and lowering her head.
She realized that with the other's ability, it seemed she couldn't do anything to him, not being bullied was already good enough.
"Hmph!"
"You ignore me, so I will ignore you too."
Bai Chenxiang huffed angrily, yet her expression became increasingly ugly.
She held her cheeks, her eyes filled with melancholy.
Even without today's display of Luo Yu's might, she had actually taken a liking to this handsome and witty man long ago.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so melancholic this morning because he hadn't shown up for three days.
"I…"
"I really don't know what to do now."
Bai Chenxiang whispered softly.
She felt the disparity between herself and that man was simply too great.
The man had shone too brightly, winning the sincere admiration of the clan leaders of the four great families. What was she in comparison?
"What are you thinking about?"
At this time, a magnetic and gentle male voice suddenly sounded beside Bai Chenxiang's ear, startling her.
Turning her head to look, the man's tall figure and graceful face came into view, along with that devilishly charming smile at the corner of his mouth.
"You… weren't you drunk and went to sleep?" Bai Chenxiang said, extremely nervous, her words becoming somewhat incoherent.
Luo Yu found her flustered state quite amusing.
After all, the first time she saw him, she had been quite the prickly and frosty character.
Bai Chenxiang seemed calm on the surface, but inside she was extremely tense.
She swallowed hard.
He… he was supposed to be ignoring her.
Why had he suddenly sought her out?
Then Luo Yu teased, smiling, "Do you really think those four old men can drink me under the table?"
"The only thing that can intoxicate me is one thing."
"What?" Bai Chenxiang asked instinctively.
"Your beauty," Luo Yu stated seriously.
"Ah?"
Bai Chenxiang became flustered in an instant.
After all, it had been three days since Luo Yu last saw her, and he had been ignoring her all day long.
For him to suddenly say something so flirtatious took her by surprise.
She felt bashful and at the same time, a bit annoyed.
"How… how can you say something like that?"
"Oh."
Luo Yu nodded, sighed, and said:
"It seems Miss Bai still dislikes me as much as ever."
"Then I will not disturb your enjoyment of gazing at the moon any further."
"Farewell."
After speaking, Luo Yu decisively turned and walked away without any hint of reluctance.
This series of actions completely baffled Bai Chenxiang.
Hadn't this guy just been flirting and showing interest in her moments ago? Why had he left so suddenly?
Could it be because her own attitude was still too cold, and she had annoyed him away?
At this moment, Luo Yu strode toward the inner hall, silently counting in his mind.
Three—
Two...
Before he even reached one, he heard a young girl's shout from behind.
"You..."
"You stop right there!"
Luo Yu's lips curved slightly upwards, but he didn't stop walking, as if he hadn't heard her at all.
"Tap tap tap!"
The sound of boots striking the ground came from behind, and a graceful figure swiftly moved in front of him.
Luo Yu gazed at the stunningly beautiful girl before him.
Twin ponytails fell, emitting an air of innocence, with a pair of eyes as amber.
Her full petite chest, the seductive slender waist, and those fine legs in black boots.
Under the moonlight, the girl appeared even more ethereal.
"Miss Bai, what do you mean by this?" Luo Yu asked.
Bai Chenxiang hesitated to meet Luo Yu's eyes, feeling them piercingly bright.
It was all a play of the mind, actually.
But soon she adjusted her mood and lifted her head stubbornly.
"You… what exactly are you trying to do?"
Luo Yu asked in surprise,
"What is Miss Bai talking about? I don't understand at all."
Bai Chenxiang questioned,
"You… were all the things you did in the past half month just to make a fool of me?"
Luo Yu shook his head.
"Not at all."
"Previously, my feelings towards Miss Bai were nothing but sincere."
"Surely Clan Leader Baihe, the Bai Family clan members, and all the youths in the city have witnessed my sincerity."
Bai Chenxiang shook her head, her twin ponytails swaying.
"No, you're lying. That's not it at all."
"If you really liked me, why did you stop coming after that?"
"And why are you ignoring me today?"
Her voice was rushed, and as she spoke, her eyes reddened, misting over with a watery layer.
"You're just deceiving me."
Luo Yu shrugged his shoulders.
"What are you talking about, Miss Bai?"
"Let me ask you."
"In the days before, didn't I come to your residence on time every day?"
Bai Chenxiang nodded.
"In the past few days, haven't I played a tune for you daily?"
Bai Chenxiang nodded again.
Luo Yu said, "Miss Bai, what do you think of my abilities and status?"
"How many people in the world are worthy of my playing?"
Bai Chenxiang fell silent.
Considering the strength Luo Yu demonstrated today, there were indeed few in the world who would deserve his personal daily visits to play for them.
Luo Yu scoffed,
"I visited daily with all sincerity."
"But has Miss Bai ever shown any sign of reciprocation?"
His words left Bai Chenxiang at a loss for words.
Luo Yu sighed.
"I once dedicated my heart to the moon, but alas the moon shines upon the ditch."
"Since Miss Bai does not fancy me, why should I bother her every day to the point of annoyance?"
Bai Chenxiang slightly parted her lips, staring steadily at Luo Yu.
She couldn't utter a single word.
Gradually, her delicate body began to tremble.
Luo Yu gave a formal bow.
"It's getting late. You should return and rest. I won't keep you company any longer."
"I wish you find a good match soon."
Having said that, Luo Yu turned to leave.
A soft, cold hand, trembling, grabbed his large hand.
"No... don't go."
