C108 The Warmth Before Our Departure

"Don't worry, sister. A place like the Nanling Mountain Range won't take my life. A small place like this isn't worth mentioning. Trust me, I will be back soon."

Although Zhong Lingyan mentioned that the place of exile was extremely dangerous, Duanmu Kuang was still full of confidence. He firmly believed that he could return safely. This exile might be a very good training for him.

His face was full of confidence. He looked at Zhong Lingyan without blinking. With a smile like a spring moon. This woman's concern for him exceeded the concern of ordinary siblings. Other than family members, no one else could compare to her. It always filled his entire body with warmth. It was sweet to the heart.

Zhong Lingyan turned her head and did not say anything. She was very dissatisfied with Duanmu Kuang's answer. This guy was always so confident. It could even be said that he was too arrogant. She was so worried about him that she had to worry about him. In the end, this guy bragged again. He completely ignored it.

Sometimes, she really wanted to knock this guy's head open to see where his strong self-confidence came from. He always had a fearless look, even when facing the danger of being banished to the exiled land. He even dared to be so careless.

She was frustrated. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She cared about this guy, but he didn't appreciate it. He didn't take her reminder to heart at all.

"Alright, Senior Sister, don't be angry. I'll listen to you. I'll be obedient and not cause any trouble when I get there. This should be fine, right?" Seeing Zhong Lingyan sulking, Duanmu Kuang thought to himself that it was bad. He had unintentionally offended his senior sister again, so he quickly said.

Actually, he couldn't be blamed for this. Some people were born with the aura of a king that ordinary people didn't have. They had no fear even in the face of all kinds of danger. Duanmu Kuang was undoubtedly this kind of person. In addition to his extraordinary talent, he had been taught by Lyi Hentian since he was young. He had developed the mentality that although the world was vast, he would not care about anyone else. Therefore, he usually gave people a sense of self-respect. Zhong Lingyan was also angry because of this.

Duanmu Kuang approached Zhong Lingyan and saw that her remaining anger had yet to dissipate. He hurriedly made a face and said, "Senior sister, don't be angry. Come, let's laugh."

"Pffft."

Only then did Zhong Lingyan burst into laughter. Her smile was filled with her delicate and beautiful face. Instantly, the entire world seemed to lose its color. At this moment, it was as if the entire world was filled with her silver bell-like laughter. She rolled her eyes at Duanmu Kuang and raised her small mouth. "Hmph, I'll ignore you if you dare to do this again in the future."

She was really pretty, especially when she smiled. Every frown and smile on her face could move one's heart and soul, making one's heart tremble.

"No, I definitely won't make Senior Sister angry in the future."

Duanmu Kuang was stunned. He repeatedly pointed to the sky and swore. Although he didn't believe in the heavens, at this moment, for the sake of the beauty in front of him, there was no harm in making an exception once.

He stared at Zhong Lingyan, his eyes as gentle as a flowing stream. This girl in front of him was incomparably beautiful and treated him with as much kindness as a mountain. He could no longer control himself. He tightly held Zhong Lingyan's small hand and said, "Senior sister, I... I am not afraid of being exiled to the land of exile. I am also not afraid of how dangerous my path ahead will be. That dream was like a mountain pressing down on my heart. I know that the person in the dream is me. I know that I have to face many unimaginable experts in my life. Perhaps I will die in their hands, but I am not afraid of any of this. The only thing I can't be at ease with is you. Senior sister, I... I like you. "

At this moment, Duanmu Kuang was in a state of confusion. He could no longer suppress the emotions in his heart. Like a flood, he burst forth with endless love for Zhong Lingyan. Even the dream that was buried deep in his heart was unconsciously said by him. He only wanted to tell her. He liked her.

"Ah..." Zhong Lingyan cried out in shock. With lightning speed, she broke away from Duanmu Kuang's hand that was tightly holding her. She turned around in panic, covered her face with her hands, and squatted down. Her delicate and beautiful face turned dark red. In an instant, it was so red that it reached the root of her ears.

What was he talking about? The silly boy actually said that he liked her, this... This was too embarrassing. Zhong Lingyan wished that she could find a hole to bury herself in. Her heart was incomparably shy and her small heart was beating wildly. Her heartbeat was so loud that it could be heard.

Although she did not completely understand Duanmu Kuang's words just now, Duanmu Kuang's words "Senior sister, I like you" had clearly entered her ears and also into her heart. It made her panic. She squatted on the ground and tightly covered her face. She didn't even dare to open her eyes.

"Senior sister, get up. Don't dodge. Open your eyes and look at me." Duanmu Kuang helped Zhong Lingyan up and stared at her. His eyes were burning with passion. "Senior sister, you... Do you like me?"

His voice was very soft and gentle, and it was even trembling a little. His eyes were filled with desire and anticipation. Zhong Lingyan slightly opened her eyes and closed them again. The redness on her face became even more intense. It was as if blood was about to drip out as she muttered, "Silly brat, you... can you let go of me first? "

Facing Duanmu Kuang's burning gaze, she did not dare to open her eyes and look directly at him. Duanmu Kuang's confession today was too sudden, and the question he asked was very direct, making her feel embarrassed and conflicted.

" Do I like him? " Zhong Lingyan asked herself in her heart, since she met Duanmu Kuang in Nanling Mountain Range. Although the two of them had not experienced any storms or storms, they were still very close. Furthermore, Duanmu Kuang had done so many rude things to her. With her personality, she should have left Duanmu Kuang a long time ago. She would never look at him again. However, the reality was different. Although she was angry at Duanmu Kuang's actions, however, deep in her heart, she did not reject him. Not only did she not leave... Instead, she got closer to him. As usual, she cared about him and everything about him.

As for whether she liked him or not, she had never taken this question seriously. Because a long time ago, she knew... This foolish kid who loved to cause trouble and was arrogant had long been deeply imprinted in her heart. She couldn't abandon him. She liked him. But at this moment, under Duanmu Kuang's interrogation, how could she open her mouth and say such embarrassing words?

"Senior sister, answer me. Do you like me?" Duanmu Kuang did not hesitate and asked again.

In his life, Zhong Lingyan was his only spiritual sustenance. If a person did not even have a spiritual sustenance, it would be sad. If Zhong Lingyan did not give him an answer, how could he go to the exiled land with peace of mind?

At this time, there was a bit of anger in his tone. Zhong Lingyan's escape made him slightly angry. Even his voice became heavier and his face became somewhat ferocious.

"You..." Duanmu Kuang's unusual behavior scared Zhong Lingyan. She slightly opened her eyes and saw his angry face. She bit her lips and turned her head to the side. After a long while, she said, "Yes."

Her voice was very soft, as small as a mosquito's buzzing. She was afraid that even she might not be able to hear it. However, Duanmu Kuang heard it very clearly. This sound was like the sound of nature, making him feel happy.

"Senior sister, I knew it. You like me too, just like I like you."

Duanmu Kuang caressed Zhong Lingyan's cheek and approached her. "Senior sister, I want to kiss you."

Zhong Lingyan was stunned. She had never thought that Duanmu Kuang would do such a thing. This was too sudden and bold. It had exceeded the bottom line that she could accept. Just as she was about to refuse, she heard Duanmu Kuang's voice again, "Senior sister, everyone who likes each other must kiss. If you really like me, then don't refuse. "

"But..."

Zhong Lingyan still wanted to reject him, but she did not know how to reject him. Her feelings were as blank as paper. She was immediately blocked by Duanmu Kuang's words. Her stomach full of rejection could not be said, and she became a little lost.

In a daze, Duanmu Kuang's face became bigger and bigger in her eyes. She could clearly see the burning light in his eyes, and there was a strong male aura slowly exhaling from his nose. He gently caressed her face and neck, feeling numb and itchy.

Her heart suddenly sped up, and her face was so red that she was drooling. A woman's nature told her that she should avoid it immediately, but there was another voice in the deepest part of her heart that made her unable to understand the anticipation and desire.

In the end, Zhong Lingyan simply closed her eyes and felt a heat on her mouth as her lips were completely covered.

...

"Senior sister, accompany me for a walk."

After a long time, Duanmu Kuang let go of Zhong Lingyan and licked his lips. There was still some lingering fragrance there.

"Yes." Zhong Lingyan nodded and obediently let Duanmu Kuang pull her along as they strolled in the fragrant garden. It was only at dusk that the two reluctantly parted and returned to the east and west courtyard.
