Chapter 644: Chapter 647: Fate is Playing Tricks on People
Luyu scoffed, "Really? Then didn’t you hear me when I just said that I liked you?"
Chiyan couldn’t help but widen her eyes, "When did you say you liked me? Weren’t you just saying that you... "
Speaking halfway through, Chiyan suddenly realized that she had been tricked into admitting her eavesdropping, so she quickly shut up.
Xien, red-faced with irritation, glared at Chiyan fiercely, "And you said you didn’t eavesdrop?"
Chiyan gave an embarrassed laugh and scratched her hair.
Luyu gave the pair a cold glance, then turned to walk in the direction of the tribe.
Seeing this, Xien hurried to catch up, "Wait for me, sister!"
Luyu looked back at him, "So you’re just going to follow me back and ignore Gaiyin and the others?"
Xien had a sudden realization, slapped his forehead, and turned to run back towards the cave.
Luyu helplessly shook her head and continued to walk towards the tribe.
"Don’t follow me. I don’t want to see you now."
Chiyan originally wanted to explain something, but was frightened into stillness by Luyu’s words.
Looking at Luyu’s retreating figure, Chiyan’s spark of affection blazed more intensely. The more she thought about Xien’s suggestion, the better it seemed!
Xien was right, she should leave Xixili Flatland with Alu, she had decided to go back for the Star Moon Flower!
...
By the time Xien returned to the Canyon Cave, Chiyu had already left a long time ago.
He gave an awkward smile, "Sorry to keep you waiting, should we go back now or what?"
Su Tang: "You just chased after her, is Luyu okay?"
Xien paused, then gave a warm smile, "She’s fine, thank you for your concern."
Gaiyin found Xien’s smile somewhat blinding. He emotionlessly stood in front of Su Tang, "If there’s nothing else, let’s go. Come here early tomorrow morning, we need to make a trip to the Sky Fox Tribe."
Xien looked surprised, but he didn’t ask why, just gave a faint nod and a smile, "Okay."
After they returned to the Ming Deer Clan, seeing Luyu still as cold and distant as ever, Su Tang and the others finally relaxed slightly.
Before they knew the truth, they thought Chiyan was old-fashioned and inflexible, refusing to confide her feelings for Xien because of the animosity between their tribes, thereby sacrificing her brother’s lifelong happiness.
But after they knew the truth, even they were somewhat undecided. By putting themselves in her shoes, if they were Chiyan or LuYu’s older sister, they would do the same thing. Otherwise, when the two someday realized the truth, they would both end up hurt, suffering mutual pain and torment.
But as to what the ultimate outcome will be for these two, it’s still hard to say now.
However, when the day comes that the truth is revealed, the one who will be hurt the most will definitely be Luyu.
Ah, it’s really fate’s strange game.
A big event occurred in the Ming Deer Clan that night!
The young master Xien actually openly defied the chief Saint Ya, saying that he refused to marry Luyu.
Luyu, the person in question, was slightly surprised but otherwise motionless. But Saint Ya was so infuriated by Xien that she was gasping for breath, even going so far as to fiercely whip him with a vine.
She also issued a stern command, if he ever dared utter these words again, he wouldn’t have to bother being the young master of the Ming Deer Clan!
The tribespeople who received the news were all shaking their heads in disapproval. But nobody took the chief’s words to heart, she had made many such threats before, but not once had she followed through.
Xien was particularly stubborn this time, refusing to admit wrongdoing no matter how much the chief punished him.
