Chapter 49: You Can't Give Up on Life and Death Together

  "Cough..."

  She coughed dryly to cover her embarrassment, quickly pushed his body away, picked up the book on the ground, slapped off the dust neatly, and flipped through a page randomly.

  Her eyes were fixed on the book, seemingly very serious, but her cheeks were burning, and she was restless for the first time, usually calm.

  The atmosphere was ambiguous, Emperor Leng Xun seemed to be acting as if nothing had happened, slightly raising the corner of his lips to look at her, Little Wildcat was shy, how cute.

  It's just unknown how she plucked up the courage to kiss him at first.

  The sunset shone through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows of the library, casting a golden glow on them as they sat under the camphor tree.

  Delicate fingers stained with beautiful colors on white paper, Xiao Fengxue raised her head and saw the dazzling light on the library window, magnificent.

  "Want to go see the sunset?" The man beside her spoke up.

  "Huh? Where's the show?" She came back to herself.

  "Come with me." He naturally took her hand and stood up.

  "Wait, I'll put the book away."

  As she put "The Wound of Youth" into her backpack, Emperor Liang took her hand and they left.

  Xiao Fengxue allowed him to lead her by the hand, in her opinion it was nothing much, friends could also hold hands.

  However, Emperor Liang's definition is that only couples can hold hands and only couples can kiss.

  Yes, they... should be considered a couple.

  Deserted rooftop, being the highest place of Qingying, the view can reach the entire campus, the forest full of phoenix trees, the artificial lake shore with couples laughing and playing.

  The sky is a vast expanse of fiery clouds, with rosy light and shadow burning all the way to the edge of the sky, as beautifully unreal as a fairy tale.

  "True beauty." She walked away from the large hands that had been wrapped around her, to the railing, gazing out at the farthest reaches of the sky, sighing. Never thought that one day she would stand on the rooftop watching the sunset, but in recent years, going up to the rooftop was mostly for assassinations and ambushes, what fell was blood, not the sun.

  The softness in his palm suddenly disappeared, Di Liangxun put his hand into his pocket and silently stared at the girl in front of him.

  The golden sunset clouds slowly dyed her delicate face with a faint red glow, making her eyes seem even deeper, and her slender figure occupied his gaze, bewildering his heart.

  Before he met her, he never thought that someone's smile could be so breathtakingly beautiful, nor did he think there would be a girl who would make him infatuated and unable to control himself.

  Feeling his gaze, Xiao Fengxue turned around, and as soon as she entered her eyes, it was those focused and intoxicating ink pupils.

  It has become apparent that their behavior towards each other is becoming increasingly unusual.

  She walked up to him, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed.

  "We're just friends." She finally spoke up.

  "Didn't expect her to say that suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood what it meant, his thin lips opened lightly, 'But I like you.'"

  "What?"

  The dazzling sunset made her dizzy, a dreamlike scene, a dreamlike voice that reached her ears was even more ethereal.

  It seems like I heard him say he likes her?

  Di Liang Xun seemed to know what she was thinking, coughed, turned his face to the side, and sneaked a few glances at her with his eyes, his ears secretly turning red.

  Then said in a very arrogant tone: "You didn't hear wrong, I like you."

  He had one hand in his pocket, and his black short hair set off his absolutely beautiful yet unyieldingly rugged face. His arrogant expression couldn't hide the faint redness at the base of his ears.

  His entire being still exuded an aura of dominance, but the ruler of this dark empire was now just a young man experiencing his first love, confessing to the girl he liked for the first time, and even the word "like" was taught by someone else.

  "Your broadcast that day..."

  Although I had doubts before, it was a different feeling when I heard it with my own ears. Before Xiao Fengxue could calm down the shock in her heart, she heard him speak again.

  "What I'm saying is true. Seeing them confess to you makes me uncomfortable, and besides, you know my identity, you even have a gun on you, but I don't know anything about you."

  So he can only feel that she won't disappear when she is tied to him as his woman.

  "How did you know... I have a gun on me?" She suddenly raised her eyes, with unhidden surprise.

  "On the first night of outdoor training, I saw it." What puzzled him was that the gun had undergone a very special modification, which ordinary people couldn't get.

  "It was like this." She had been neglectful, but... did he really have a crush on her?

  Lowering her eyelids, she sorted out her confused thoughts. After a long while, she slightly moved her wind-dried lips and said, "But I don't like you."

  Give up, they really don't match.

  She looked up and saw a fleeting sense of loss in his deep and focused eyes, and her heart skipped a beat for no reason.

  "He slowly said: 'As my woman, you can gradually like me.'"

  He wanted to give her everything she wanted.

  He wanted to keep this woman who gave him a special feeling by his side.

  She doesn't like him, it's okay, feels can be slowly cultivated.

  Her eyes glazed over for a moment as she felt that many things had developed beyond her expectations.

  Deliberately turning away from his gaze, her pale hand slowly rose, watching the sunset flow through her fingers, the other end of the sky gradually falling, and what couldn't be taken away was the wound of memories.

  "Di Liang Xun, what I want, you can't give." After a moment, she spoke up.

  Having been hurt once, she is more selfish and self-centered than anyone else in terms of emotions.

  What she wants is not to abandon, not to put down, and not to betray. She wants a lifelong commitment from one person, and she requires the other party to pay out much more than her before she will slowly hand over her true heart.

  The most important thing is... to be together in life and death!

  As the ruler of the dark forces, he carries too many lives on his shoulders. Even if he could do all those things before, in the end, he couldn't give that last bit.

  "I can promise that for this lifetime, there will only be you, one woman." His tone was affirmative, perhaps he couldn't guarantee his feelings would last a lifetime, but once he recognized something, it would never change.

  Moreover, his fondness for her seemed to have exceeded his own expectations.

  "I said I wanted it, you can't give it to me." She shook her head gently, her eyes sparkling with unclear emotions, "Let me be alone for a while."

  Di Liang Xun gazed deeply into her clear and cold eyes, her words seemed to have stimulated him.

  The gentle intention in his eyes slowly faded away, and the dark aura surged forth like a tidal wave, as if he had transformed back into that Dark Emperor who could turn the world upside down with a mere flip of his hand.

  He suddenly leaned down and kissed her lips heavily, sucking on her icy softness, rolling and tasting the bite.

  Xiao Fengxue didn't move, calmly and indifferently, letting his breath invade her senses.

  Two people were doing the most intimate actions between lovers, but they both had expressionless faces. One was calm and peaceful with no ripples, while the other's eyes were deep and profound like a boundless universe black hole, making it impossible to discern their emotions.
