Chapter 349 Ye Fan and Xu Qiong Meet Again
Ji Ziyue and Qin Yao both despised Xu Liang.
As women, they hate this kind of men the most.
In their perception, marriage is a very sacred thing and there should be no deception.
They have always been very fortunate, especially Ji Ziyue who came from the ancient Ji family. What she was most fortunate about was that she did not become a tool for marriage.
Fortunately, the person who accompanies her throughout her life is the one she loves and the one who cares about her.
Listening to Ye Fan's story, they could imagine how bleak Xu Qiong's life would be if Lu Zhou had not happened to encounter all this and when Xu Qiong really married Xu Liang.
Although this will not necessarily completely ruin Xu Qiong's entire life.
But in the end, this will definitely bring a big blow to Xu Qiong.
They all heard from Ye Fan that Xu Qiong was a very traditional, kind girl who attached great importance to marriage.
Ye Fan stopped talking and didn't continue.
But in my heart, I felt lucky for Xu Qiong.
He knew that it was more than just a blow!
He knew that in the original future, the marriage that Xu Qiong had worked so hard to maintain for many years would eventually break down completely.
After a few years of marriage, she divorced and ended up raising a few-year-old child alone.
During this period, how much suffering Xu Qiong has experienced and how much criticism she has endured behind the scenes, probably only she herself knows.
Although she remarried a few years after her divorce.
But that was because she wanted to give her child a complete family, not because she really fell in love with that man.
To put it bluntly, it's just a matter of going with the flow when one reaches a certain stage in life, sees through everything, and no longer has any other extravagant hopes. One feels that the other person is more suitable for one's current situation!
'fortunately.'
Ye Fan sighed and felt lucky for Xu Qiong.
Fortunately, all this changed because of a chance encounter.
While the Ye family and the Pang family were celebrating their reunion, the entire monastic community on Earth suddenly became as noisy as the boiling water in a pot because of their return.
All the major sects that received the news held internal meetings as soon as possible.
After the conference, the powerful figures of the major sects rushed to the Ye family, the Pang family, and the city R in Sichuan.
The purpose is self-evident!
'Ding Dong.'
'Ding Dong.'
'Ding Dong.'
Three times in a row, on that day, the doorbell of House 1314, Block A, Yunjingtai, located in the center of City B, was rung.
A few minutes later, with a click, the door was opened by Xu Qiong, who was dressed in a well-dressed suit.
"long time no see!"
"Congratulations, you are finally back to reunite with your family!"
Xu Qiong smiled and sent blessings from an old friend.
This smile, the same as always!
Ye Fan was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled!
"long time no see!"
Before today, perhaps they had never imagined that when they met again more than ten years later, the scene would be like this.
There is nothing strange or indifferent, and nothing makes the eyes red!
Just let go of everything and smile at each other.
It is a greeting between old friends who are close yet maintain some distance.
The first words you say to each other are: Long time no see!
Before this, although they had never thought it would be like this, it seemed reasonable.
She knows him!
He understands her too!
He knew that she must still live here!
No. You should wait here.
"Come in and sit down!"
Xu Qiong turned sideways and invited Ye Fan into the house.
As she turned sideways, Ye Fan saw at a glance the row of men's home slippers neatly placed on the shoe rack in the entrance.
With his sharp eyes, he could tell at a glance that compared to the two pairs of women's home slippers, the men's slippers, except for one pair that was a little old and had been used, the others had never been used.
It should just be a reserve.
He smiled and walked straight to the living room.
The sound of Xu Qiong closing the door came from behind.
"I only have scented tea, no pure tea, so you have to make do with it."
Not long after, Xu Qiong smiled and brewed a cup of scented tea and placed it on the coffee table in the living room in front of Ye Fan.
Ye Fan's gaze lingered for a moment on the cup of tea from which hot steam was rising.
Looking at this cup of scented tea, with Xu Qiong's words echoing in his mind, Ye Fan became more certain of some of his long-standing guesses.
He smiled, raised his hand, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
'Beep.'
He smacked his lips and smiled at Xu Qiong, who was sitting opposite him and also sipping a cup of scented tea.
"Although my favorite drink is still plain tea, but after knowing Lu Zi for so long over the years, I also like the taste of scented tea."
Ye Fan's words made Xu Qiong's hands tremble slightly.
"you"
She looked at Ye Fan with her eyes, paused for a moment, and then continued.
"He told you?"
Ye Fan shook his head, and after a while, he nodded!
he laughed.
"This is the first time I've seen Lu Zi in trouble, hahaha."
At this point, he seemed to remember something and finally laughed out loud.
Xu Qiong rolled her eyes at Ye Fan, speechless!
Then, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she felt very happy in her heart.
At this time, she heard Ye Fan continue to speak.
"Lu Zi didn't say it directly, but he still told me!"
"A few years ago, when Lu Zi returned to Beidou and told me that he had met you by chance, he told me some things about you and him!"
"At first, I didn't expect you to like Lu Zi and gave him a difficult question."
"Later, when I thought carefully about what Lu Zi told me about his time with you, especially what you said when you said goodbye that night, and some of the things he sensed at your house..."
"I just figured it out. You actually like Lu Zi!"
As he spoke, Ye Fan's spiritual consciousness was also projected outward, and he "saw" that in a cloakroom in this suite, there were some men's clothes neatly hung.
There are formal wear, home wear, modern wear, and ancient costumes!
These were all stockpiled by Xu Qiong, and some were even cut and sewn by her herself.
A few years ago, when Lu Zhou came to Xu Qiong's house for the second time, Lu Zhou sensed it.
Xu Qiong was silent, just looking at Ye Fan, her eyes were as calm as water.
"I remember that you used to like light food and couldn't eat spicy food. But two years later, when you met Lu Zi again, you learned how to cook home-cooked Sichuan dishes."
"At the beginning, Lu just wanted you to pay attention to your environment when you get drunk in the future. As a result, since then, you have never stored a bottle of wine in your home again."
Ye Fan remembered that Lu Zhou had told him about the farewell banquet at that time.
He remembered that Xu Qiong once said to Lu Zhou at that time.
"Would you like a drink? If you want to drink some wine, the small shop outside the community should sell it. I only have juice and herbal tea at home."
"I think you haven't touched alcohol since Lu Zi said that night."
Xu Qiong remained silent, but nodded slightly.
She really never drank again after that night.
She is not good at expressing anything.
Just do things quietly.
It is so silent that some details have been completely integrated into every aspect of her life.
Ye Fan continued to speak.
Xu Qiong mustered up the courage to say the same words to Lu Zhou when they said goodbye that night.
She was worried that after that night it would be their last farewell, and if she didn't say something, she would never have the chance to say it again.
"Is the starry sky of Emperor Burial Star beautiful?"
"Really? I'm really looking forward to it." "I haven't even set foot here yet, how do you know it's not suitable?"
"If you agree, I really, really want to go to that world!"
She used the words “I want, I want, I want” three times in a row!
Ye Fan smiled casually.
He pointed at Xu Qiong.
I really don’t know what to say.
He finally complained.
"The world has changed, times have changed, but you're still the same. I don't know whether to say you're thin-skinned or that you always like to play tricks like this when it comes to relationships!"
"I guess only Lu Zi and I can understand what you are saying!"
"Lu Zi's world is very dazzling, but since you are so eager to enter his world, why didn't you just tell him that you like him that night and let him take you with him?"
"Lu Zi has always been a straightforward person. If you had spoken directly that night."
"You do not understand!"
Xu Qiong suddenly spoke.
He interrupted Ye Fan before he could say anything else.
Xu Qiong lowered her head, her voice a little low.
"You don't understand. I feel very inferior to him. If I say some things directly, I may lose all hope and even lose my friendship."
Then, a smile appeared on her face again.
She looked up and smiled at Ye Fan.
"Fortunately, I finally confirmed it. I don't know why, but I feel like he has some feelings for me."
Ye Fan nodded. He knew very well where Lu Zhou's fondness for Xu Qiong came from.
That's not just pure liking.
It's a kind of appreciation.
I admire Xu Qiong in his original future trajectory only because I have known Ye for two years. When I saw that his parents were old and had no one to take care of them, I took care of them and provided them with care until the end of their lives.
No one can help but like this kind, gentle and affectionate woman.
"But he is concerned about our brotherhood."
At this point, Xu Qiong was speechless.
She complained speechlessly.
"It was only after he left that I realized that he seemed to be concerned about you. He must have misunderstood what happened between you and me."
When she said this, her eyes were already fixed on Ye Fan.
Emperor Ye Tian understood immediately.
He raised his hand and quickly denied it!
"I didn't say anything nonsense. Before Lu Zi returned to Earth for the first time, I didn't even mention you to him!"
"After Lu Zi returned to Beidou, when we talked about you, I told him the truth. You and I were just good friends at the time, and everything hadn't started yet."
Xu Qiong snorted lightly!
"Humph! I guessed that you never mentioned me to him before."
She didn't say that this was also the fundamental reason why she decisively and completely cut off the last bit of Ye Fan's shadow in her heart after being saved by Lu Zhou.
She didn't care whether there was any hidden secret in it.
She only knew that if a man really had a woman in his heart, then he would definitely mention that woman to his best friends.
Even if it happened only once, it proves that the man had that woman in his heart!
Otherwise haha!
It only means that the woman is not important enough in the man's heart, or that she has no weight at all!
To be honest, Xu Qiong's words at this time made Ye Tiandi feel a little embarrassed.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't explain.
He asked himself, and to be honest, he really didn't miss Xu Qiong much over the years. He was thinking more about his parents and how to become stronger!
When it comes to women, his heart is also filled with Ji Ziyue and Qin Yao!
In addition, now that everything has passed and has been let go, he has Ji Ziyue and Qin Yao, and Xu Qiong also falls in love with Lu Zhou.
If he were to explain anything at this point, it would be a bit ridiculous!
What's more, he could see that Xu Qiong was just complaining about him at this time.
Ye Tiandi lowered his head to drink tea to distract the conversation and finally changed the subject.
He told Xu Qiong.
"This time, Lu Zi is back too, back to kill Dao!"
These words made Xu Qiong's eyes brighten up instantly.
"He is back as expected. Where is he now?"
Two days ago, when she saw Ye Fan coming back, she almost couldn't help but want to go up to him and ask him if Lu Zhou had come back.
"I don't know where he is now!"
Ye Fan shook his head!
He really doesn't know.
These days, he was only focused on reuniting with his family and didn't pay much attention to what was happening in the outside world.
"I think, maybe in the next two days, he should come to see you!"
Ye Fan is very sure about this!
He guessed that Lu Zhou would definitely come to see Xu Qiong before being executed.
Some things must have an ending.
Time passed slowly and two hours went by in a flash.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Fan prepared to leave.
Xu Qiong said.
"It's a rare occasion for us old friends to meet again. Let's go. I'll treat you to a nice meal. There's a pretty good Sichuan restaurant that just opened in the mall next door."
As she spoke, Xu Qiong prepared to pick up her bag and take Ye Fan out for a big meal.
But Ye Fan smiled and waved his hand to refuse.
"Forget it, I'll treat you guys later when I find a way!"
His words made Xu Qiong's fair cheeks blush.
He seemed to be certain that Lu Zhou and Xu Qiong would be together in the future.
"Okay then! See you later!"
Xu Qiong saw Ye Fan out.
When I arrived at the entrance, I looked at the row of men's home slippers on the shoe rack.
Emperor Ye Tian couldn't help but say something after all.
"Lu Zi is not an octopus, why did you prepare so many slippers?"
"I want you to take care"
Xu Qiong retorted.
But then, she said.
"I don't know what kind of slippers he likes, but I buy whatever I like."
After stepping out of the gate of Yunjingtai community, I didn’t know if it was my illusion.
In short, Ye Fan felt that he seemed to be much more relaxed.
Something that had been weighing on his mind for a long time finally came to a perfect end.
At least in his opinion, it was perfect.
Ye Fan didn't feel at all surprised or shocked that Xu Qiong fell in love with Lu Zhou.
He knows Xu Qiong.
Xu Qiong is not a face-conscious person. Although Lu Zhou is very handsome and has an extraordinary temperament, he looks like a god who walked out of a book.
But this was not enough to make Xu Qiong fall in love with Lu Zhou.
Ye Fan knew that it was because Lu Zhou had saved Xu Qiong and given Xu Qiong too much sense of security that Xu Qiong had developed a lot of good feelings towards Lu Zhou.
That chance encounter changed Xu Qiong's entire life.
Then, the fireworks that happened to appear that night were exactly what Xu Qiong had been looking forward to the most.
Then, Lu Zhou's beastly behavior after Xu Qiong was drunk, and the glass of water at the bedside, which was just the right temperature,
This undoubtedly formed a sharp contrast with some of Xu Liang's dirty plans.
The contrast of this situation was too stark for Xu Qiong, who was almost defrauded of money, sex, and marriage.
It is no exaggeration to say that under such a comparison, it is really hard for any woman not to have more favorable feelings towards Lu Zhou!
In addition, Lu Zhou later led Xu Qiong to the path of cultivation and left her with some self-defense methods, etc.
If a man's outward appearance is already perfect, but then he encounters all these situations!
Putting himself in her shoes, Ye Fan thought that even if he was a woman, he would be attracted to Lu Zhou!
And he also understands Lu Zhou.
I know that although Lu Zhou is more philanthropic, he is not attractive to all women.
It just so happened that Xu Qiong's character was just what Lu Zhou liked.
