Chapter 70 – Long Lost Feelings

As if engraved in her brain, the red figure didn’t disappear from her mind even after a long time .

Red dress, red eyes .

The girl looked like a red lotus blooming in the dark .

“... Was that Merak Temple’s Temple Master?” As if the voice didn’t want to leave the tip of her tongue, Shui Yuner murmured quietly .

... Fake .

The uncanny appearance is so beautiful that it seems fake .

If you appraise the features independently, you will find that they are actually mediocre, and have nothing distinguishing about them .

However, if they are combined in the most suitable way, they will shine brightly .

A pure beauty – this is probably the most appropriate description for the fiery red girl .

Moreover, the other party’s feelings are rather pure and frank, just like a flame that doesn’t hide its own light .

Unlike me, she’s a pure person – mused Shui Yuner .

“... Older Sister Shui, be careful!”

At the same time as she heard the warning, Shui Yuner felt someone pulling her arm from behind .

“Ah!” The girl who lost her equilibrium exclaimed and quickly backed away a few steps to recover the equilibrium .

After standing steadily, Shui Yuner looked up and found a brook a few steps away .

If Nangong Mingming hadn’t puled her away in time, Shui Yuner would have stepped into the brook .

Anyhow, despite everything, Shui Yuner still hasn’t let go of Merak Temple’s temple clothes in her arms .

“Mingming, thank you . ” Looking back at the worried Nangong Mingming, Shui Yuner smiled wryly .

“Older Sister Shui, why don’t you look where you go!” After releasing Shui Yuner’s arm, Nangong Mingming sighed, perplexed .

“That day, you were also distracted and hit me... Older Sister Shui, you have to pay more attention where you are going . Last time it was I, this time it is a brook, but what if next time it’s a cliff? If you accidentally fall off the cliff, it will be a waste of life!”

“Oh...” The other party’s well-meaning advice left Shui Yuner evasive, which is rather rare for her . It has been a long time since she has heard the instructions of others, so she’s not used to it . “This is indeed a bad habit... I will try to mend it . ”

It must be a bliss when others accept your advice, and Nangong Ming nodded happily, “That’s good . Your life belongs to you, Older Sister Shui, so you must cherish it!”

Isn’t that a tad too serious? Shui Yuner smiled wryly secretly, but didn’t speak her mind .

The three people started walking again .

Nangong Mingye suddenly accelerated his pace and rushed past Shui Yuner . Then, he turned around, face Shui Yuner, and started walking backwards .

“Hey, Older Sister Shui, what were you thinking about just now that you were so enthralled?” The boy’s eyes are filled with curiosity .

“Nangong Mingye, walk properly!” Nangong Mingming shouted loudly for Nangong Mingye to stop this activity that is very dangerous in her view .

“... That’s no fun . ” Nangong Mingye pouted and turned around again .

Looking at the two silently, Shui Yuner couldn’t help but reveal a faint smile on her face . In the next moment, the smile was died with bitterness, and became complicated . Family... That’s something the girl doesn’t have .

“... Older Sister Shui, you haven’t answered me yet!” Nangong Mingye asked again, “What were you thinking about just now?”

On the surface, Nangong Mingming is looking steadily forward, but in reality, she is peeking at Shui Yuner from the corner of her eye .

She seems to be curious as well .

“I was thinking that Temple Master Qi is really beautiful . ”

When she noticed Nangong Mingming’s minute action, Shui Yuner couldn’t help thinking of mischief .

“Older Sister Temple Master?” Nangong Mingye’s eyes shone brightly, and he began wag his tongue, “Yes, she is really beautiful! She is much prettier than Older Sister Mingming . I have never seen such a beautiful person! In terms of looks, even Chang’an’s top four beauties must admit defeat in the face of Older Sister Temple Master!”

“To be honest, I have never seen such a beautiful person . ” Shui Yuner looked at Nangong Mingming with a smile, “No wonder you ‘like’ her so much, Mingming!” Shui Yuner deliberately emphasized the word like . Although her tone is steady, but the teasing between the lines is still quite prominent .

“Li, like?” Nangong Mingming waved her hands in panic, “I... just admire Temple Master Qi’s demeanor, that’s all”

“Really?” Shui Yuner blinked her eyes to express disbelief .

“I’ve never seen Older Sister Mingming run so fast . ” Nangong Mingye crossed his arms and nodded, “Older Sister Mingming has fallen for Older Sister Temple Master! That’s the only reason to run so fast, just like I usually do when see beautiful girls . ”

The boy’s inference caused his sister’s lips to distort and the corners of her eyes to twitch, “NAN, GONG, MING, YE!”

The girl in purple extended her hand to hit the boy on the head, but the latter evaded sideways .

“Ah, Older Sister Mingming, you want to hit me again!”

“Stay still!” Nangong Mingming lifted up her skirt and chased after her brother who is running away like the wind .

Then, they staging an “Aetherium I – The Escape” play in Merak Temple’s outer temple .

Several outer temple disciples who saw the noisy quarrel of the Nangong siblings look like they don’t know whether to laugh or cry .

“What a funny pair of siblings . ” Covering her lips with a hand, Shui Yuner snickered a few times . Then, she sighed, lonely, “You made me relieve the long lost feelings...”

The girl drew some warmth from the Nangong siblings . However, the warmth doesn’t belong to her . It came from others . The girl has lost her family a long time a go, and can no longer enjoy a warmth of her own .

“As things stand now ...” Shui Yuner smiled wryly and shook her head .

A comfortable breeze caressed her gently .

As the water-colored, silky hair danced chaotically in the wind before her eyes, she closed her eyes .

The rustling of leaves comes from all directions . In addition to this, she can also hear the noise made by the Nangong siblings mixed in with the sound of flowing water .

She took a deep breath, and the fresh fragrance of nature assaulted her nostrils . The scent of flowers, trees, grass, and wood filled her nose .

“... This is Merak Temple?” Shui Yuner opened her eyes and looked far away, “Can I get the strength I want here?”

No one knows the answer . The girl can only hope that she gets her wish fulfilled .

Shui Yuner lifted her head and looked at the Middle Peak of Merak Temple hidden in the clouds, “I must see her if I can . ”

The one who is similar to her .
