A Woman’s Fragrance (5) – No One Had Ever Been So Close To Him
The cold fingers on her wrist seemed to be a little colder than the cold wind, so cold that made Li Ruo Shui shivered and got some goose bumps.
It was only then that she remembered that Lu Zhiyao seemed to be wearing very little all these while.
A middle garment with arrow sleeves and an outer robe were what he wore in March. His smile could still be seen even when the cold wind was blowing, at first glance, it was docile and warm, but in fact it was almost like a self-abuse smile.
She always thought that he was not cold, but his hand expressed otherwise.
She recalled his undisguised madness just now, all this made Li Ruo Shui puzzled.
What revealed after he took down the spring-like smiling mask was actually the appearance of an Asura evil ghost who wanted to see blood at any time.
Li Ruo Shui had misjudged him at the beginning entirely due to the original novel, which did not spend time to describe Lu Zhi Yao’s life background, resulting in her stereotypical impression of him, being gentle and infatuated.
It was the fault of the original novel.
Li Ruo Shui’s thoughts drifted away, and she sighed faintly.
“What was that just now?”
Lu Zhi Yao did not get a response from her and sat up, the distance between them was only a finger’s length, but the darkness and cold blurred the distance. It was only until she heard his words that she realised how close they were.
“Why did you bite me?”
His clear breath was so near, and Li Ruo Shui hurriedly sat back, keeping a little distance away from him.
“Who bit you?”
Lu Zhi Yao reached out his hand, touched the long sword beside him, and with a clatter sound, he pulled out most of it.
Cold sweat seeped out from Li Ruo Shui’s back again upon listening to the sound of the long sword being unsheathed and she hurriedly pressed his hand.
“Wait, I didn’t mean to kiss you.”
Lu Zhi Yao paused for a moment, then nodded with sudden realisation, and the stagnant atmosphere suddenly loosened up a lot.
“So this is a kiss.”
At first Li Ruo Shui did not feel anything, but after being stimulated by his strange and pure voice tone, she suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of shame, and subconsciously reached out and touched her lips.
It was then, Jiang Nian’s shouting voice broke from above.
“Have you reached the bottom?”
She also had her energy concentrated, and shouted her reply back to the top.
“We are at the bottom!”
After a while, another sentence came from above.
“Then here we come!”
Li Ruo Shui hurriedly groped the net and crawled to the edge, carefully getting off the net, for fear of stepping on something and falling, while Lu Zhi Yao landed on the ground just by flipping over.
After they got off the net, the rails on the side slowly pulled the net up again, and with a clicking sound, it stuck at the position that caught them earlier.
In this extreme darkness, Lu Zhi Yao was walking as if he was on the flat ground, behaving no differently from usual. He listened calmly for a while, then turned to go somewhere, but Li Ruo Shui grabbed the corner of his robe.
“Where are you going?”
“Go out. When you are underground, just follow the water current and wind to get out. I did this before.”
Li Ruo Shui pulled him over along the corner of his robe, her tone was rather nagging, just like an old mother who was advising her child thousands of times.
“We still have to wait for the two of them. It’s too dark here, I really can’t see anything, it’s better if there are more people, we can still help each other if something happens.”
Lu Zhi Yao followed according to her strength and stood beside her, and then after a moment of silence he said, “Yes.”
People are selfish in the face of life and death, he wanted to see how Li Ruo Shui would react when she was left behind by the other two. Would she then beg him to save her, just like before.
This hole was very dark, even fingers could not be seen, and the ground under the feet was also muddy and uneven, covered with a lot of stagnant water. The sound of the river flow was quite loud, and it was quite frightening in this empty space.
Li Ruo Shui was like blind person here, but Lu Zhi Yao could move freely and consciously took her aside to the wall and waited.
As if he did not like this kind of silence, Lu Zhi Yao opened his mouth.
“Was it fun to jump off just now?”
His tone was rarely hostile, it seemed like his madness had been put away and returned to the original warmth, with a unique tenderness of Jiang Nan people.
However, Li Ruo Shui had gradually become resistant to this gentleness.
“Not fun.”
