Chapter 34 Mother Doesn't Want You Two Anymore
Garlic-flavored grilled and marinated rabbit, one for one xundi.
Helplessly, due to insufficient strength, Bai Heng could only save half of it.
"Teacher sister, aren't you really going to have a bite?"
"No."
"It's very fragrant."
"No."
"Then let Dabao and Erbao have some?"
"They don't eat either... Why are they called Dabao and Erbao?" Jing Liu looked towards Bai Heng.
"Just for convenience."
Bai Heng pointed at the slightly larger Fire Li rabbit and said:
"This one is the elder sister, so it's called Dabao. The other one is the younger sister, so it's called Erbao. It's nice and convenient to remember."
"So tacky." Jing Liu said straightforwardly:
"It's okay to be tacky. As long as it's easy to remember, and surely they like these names too." Bai Heng looked at the two Fire Li rabbits and said:
"Right, Dabao and Erbao."
Probably intimidated by the bag of garlic-flavored grilled and marinated rabbit in Bai Heng's hand, the two Fire Li rabbits promptly nodded.
"See." Bai Heng smiled:
Jing Liu looked at Bai Heng's unreliable appearance and also noticed the resigned look of Dabao and Erbao in her arms. Somehow, she recalled some memories of the past, and a faint curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Bai Heng captured this subtle change, paused his tone, and said:
"Teacher sister, did you just smile?"
"No."
"You're lying."
Jing Liu turned her head away, avoiding Bai Heng's gaze, and then took two or three steps forward, walking in front of Bai Heng.
Bai Heng looked at that slender figure from behind and unconsciously smiled too, then followed Jing Liu's footsteps.
Time passed in the blink of an eye.
The two passed through many paradises and unknowingly arrived at the Patrol Star Port where countless star rafts rose and landed.
It was also sunset at this time. The dusk tinted the orange skyline, like golden egg liquid flowing slowly.
At the edge of the dock, Bai Heng asked a passing citizen of the Immortal Boat to take a photo for the two of them as a souvenir. Although Bai Heng thought Dabao and Erbao were a bit redundant, Jing Liu still insisted on holding them. After the two stood together, Jing Liu kept staring at the camera, trying her best to force a smile. Bai Heng enjoyed that amusing fake smile for a while and said:
"Look at me."
"What?"
Jing Liu raised her head and looked into Bai Heng's eyes.
The passerby who took the photo for them was also very cooperative and captured this moment.
In the picture, Jing Liu looked into Bai Heng's eyes, her slender eyelashes fluttering gently like butterfly wings. The sunlight passed through the cracks of the star rafts and shone on her exquisite side face.
Even though that pretty face was still as indifferent as ice and snow, at this moment, even that passerby could see that her eyes were filled with the young man in front of her.
After the photo was delivered to the two of them, Bai Heng took a look at the photo and gave his evaluation:
"Damn, why did I look so ugly? When I go to the photo studio to print the photo later, I'll ask the boss to retouch it for me."
Jing Liu leaned against the guardrail behind her, looking at the photo in her phone and remained silent for a long time.
The warm current of the Patrol Star Port blew on her face, mixed with the noisy conversations at the dock. The smell of the star raft culture fluid in the air had not yet dissipated. In her arms, the two Fire Li rabbits would lick her arm from time to time, itchy but very warm.
She... seemed to really like this feeling and began to think about where he would take her for dinner later, what things to buy, drinking together at night, watching the waxing and waning of the moon. It seemed that going on like this forever was what she had waited and expected for during the seven hundred years...
However... When these emotions rushed into her mind, a sharp pain came like a steel needle stabbing into her chest.
Vaguely, she heard a few calls.
"Teacher sister?"
"Teacher... sister....."
"Teacher.... What happened to you?"
She covered her forehead and shook her head painfully. The two Fire Li rabbits in her arms felt the bone-chilling cold and trembled restlessly.
In a trance, Jing Liu's vision cleared for a moment.
She stuffed the two Fire Li rabbits in her arms to Bai Heng, and then ran towards the distance.
Only Bai Heng, stunned in place, and the two confused Fire Li rabbits were left.
Everything happened too suddenly. Bai Heng stood there in a daze, holding the two rabbits in his arms.
After a long time, he whispered softly:
"Mother.... doesn't want you two anymore."
.....
At night.
The moon rose above the branches.
Unfortunately, tonight's moon was a crescent moon.
Deep inside the Prison of Solitude of the Ten Kings' Department of "Luofu".
Jing Liu's cold lips were smeared with blood, and her slender hands tightly held the Tan Hua Sword in front of her.
Her silver hair danced in the chilly cold air, and layers of ice shattered the specially made bluestone bricks in the Prison of Solitude.
The sharp ice pillars rose from the ground like knife cuts, layer upon layer, just as chaotic as Jing Liu's current state of mind.
She gritted her silver teeth, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
That day, the scene of her killing Bai Heng with her own hands appeared repeatedly in her mind. Hatred, killing, all the negative emotions were like countless invisible hands, choking her throat.
Falling into the demonic shade was her destiny... But she hoped this day would come later, even just a little later.
The lifespan of short-lived species was no more than a hundred years. She wanted to marry him and accompany him through these hundred years.
But those voices kept ringing in her mind over and over again, bewitching her mind, while everything related to him was gradually blurring.
The reason why she always covered her eyes was to avoid seeing the Immortal Boat and getting lost in memories when seeing familiar things.
She knew she shouldn't take off this black veil and shouldn't accompany him to revisit this old place of "Luofu".
But she still couldn't resist wanting to look at him and recall the past events - to let her still remember him before completely forgetting herself.
Even at such a cost...
