Chapter 1404: A Windy Night on the Rooftop

Chapter 1404: A Windy Night on the Rooftop

It was cool and breezy at the Flower Admiration Banquet.

Wei Lingnan bowed deeply. “As you wish.”

She was a little startled. Did the sun rise from the west today? Was he so easy to chase away?

She felt a little lost as she watched his slender figure disappear into the bamboo forest. However, she could not help but admire the luxurious banquet. She did not know how she managed to get to the end, but she got on the car with two of her brothers and went home.

Li Rui looked at her with concern and waved his hand in front of her. “Hey, come back to reality. There’s only one Wei Lingnan, right? I’ll help you get rid of him.”

“Who knows who will get rid of who,” Xia Yingluo said weakly. From the car radio, they heard a large-scale report about the innovative pharmaceuticals of the Wei Corporation which claimed that there was a revolutionary new drug that could save all of humanity. He was like God and could control life and death and stood at the pinnacle of the world. However, he was usually very low key, so why did he suddenly want to become so high profile?

When she returned home late at night, she received a call.

“I’ve bought the ice cream. Should I send it over or will you come over to take it?” This time, he did not use honorifics, but his voice gentle and soft.

Gazing at the night sky, Xia Yingluo said, “Suddenly, I don’t want to eat it anymore.”

If it weren’t for this call, she would have almost forgotten about today’s Truth or Dare. He did not buy the ice cream before the event ended and everyone thought that he was stumped by that question and gave up silently. Unexpectedly, he spent a day and finally bought it. Could it be that he spent the entire day fulfilling this dare? There was a sour feeling in her heart, but she did not know what exactly he bought.

Over the phone, Wei Lingnan said, “I’ll send it over, then.”

Now, she lived in the Li Family’s villa, the most secluded and protected place in the world. “Do you think that you can enter?”

“You have a job tomorrow, right?” He said, “I’ll visit you then.”

Xia Yingluo was a little annoyed. “Are you threatening me?”

He fell a little silent. “I only… miss you.”

In fact, it was a threat. No matter where he went now, he would get the attention of a crowd, and the four-way love conflict among him, Jiang Yu, Gu Jinxiu and she spread like wildfire. Xia Yingluo lifted her head to look at the darkness. She knew how stubborn her protector was. “I’ll look for you now.” She hung up the phone, randomly took out a dress from her closet and went in his direction.

Due to the guardian contract between them, she was easily able to find out where he was.

He was on the top floor of a building facing the busy traffic of the bustling city.

Ths stars shimmered.

She climbed to the rooftop. “Why did you choose this place?”

“You can see the stars from here.” He looked up at her smile and handed the ice cream to her. “I bought this from a personalized ice cream store and had them create custom-made ice cream for you. There isn’t another like it.”

A one of a kind ice cream that fulfilled her request of not being able to be found anywhere else in the city.

She stared at the ice cream in her hand. It was made of purple crushed nuts and chocolate and resembled a beautiful planet. She recognized it. It was their hometown, Skatana Planet. She took a bit of the ice cream. It did not taste as good as her father’s cooking, but she could taste some energy in it. “You added energy to it?”

“Yes.” He said, “Energy needs to be well absorbed by the body. It has to be purified and passed through a medium. This is more effective than you drinking my blood directly. Ah Luo, you need energy the most at this time. I promised that I would help you collect it.”

“You also said that you would get Gu Jinxiu to send it to me.” Her voice was cold. “You know I don’t want to see you.”

He avoided answering her question. Sometimes, he could not be calculative with her. He was afraid that she would really strictly enforce the rules they agreed on. Under the starry sky, he pointed at a traffic light in the city. “Look at the brilliance of the city. It’s just like the stars in the universe. They will light up and extinguish. I want to admire the scenery with you, and only you can accompany me to look at the view and explore the universe without dying.”

She looked at him. “What are you trying to say?”

“Ah Luo, Jiang Yu is not suitable for you. He is human and will die one day.”

She sneered. “That’s my problem.”

“You’ve not experienced eternal loneliness before.” Wei Lingnan looked at her. He had experienced it before. For hundreds of millions of years. He knew what that sort of despair felt like when the person beside him was gone, everything felt like a transition and he just had no purpose to live in the world. He was that lonely. The only thing that kept him going was her.

He did not know how he could continue living if he lost her.

“Only we are the same kind,” he said.

“And Gu Jinxiu.” She sneered resentfully.

“Ah Luo, I’m sorry.”

She turned her face to the side. Anything he said now was too late. The ice cream melted in her mouth a little and his familiar energy flowed along her capillaries to her heart. Before she met him, she did not know what the meaning of her life was. She was just the daughter of a rich family who was just wasting her life away. Everything she did was amusing yet meaningless.

However, once she met him, everything changed.

Love and hate were always entangled. Now, she had a difficult future goal of reviving her kind. There were many things she had planned for the future.

However, those were her personal goals. She was very clear that he had no interest in the revival of their kind. If it weren’t for her, he would not even waste his effort collecting energy. This arrogant man only spent so much time and energy doing something he was not interested in at all for her.

Due to the guardian contract, she could feel his breath in the night breeze.

He was very close to her and his familiarity made her feel peaceful. Even though she hated him and did not want to see him, what he said was right. There was only one person in the world who would accompany him to the end and only one person who could fight with her side-by-side.

“Ah Luo.” His voice was heard in the night breeze. He boldly held her hand. “Don’t chase me away.”

Her hand was cold. When he held it, she lightly struggled but did not break free.

She glared at him. “Let go. I want to go home.”

He said, “Let me walk the entire journey with you and send you to your car. Ok?” It was only a small request, and he did not dare to ask for more. However, every request would lead to some progress. And he believed that one day, she would accept him again.

Xia Yingluo hesitated. She could stubbornly shake off his hand but did not.

Soon, he held her hand as they walked down from the rooftop. Below the rooftop was a bustling shopping mall and people were everywhere.
