    Qinglian’s Heart-Whisper·Different Paths and Destiny Extra·Conversations on the Lotus Pond Couch

    The evening breeze in the Lotus Heart Hall always carries the lingering scent of lotus. The moonlight shines through the carved window lattice and onto the jade table next to the soft couch. There is also a half-drunk cup of Lotus Heart Tea on the table.

    As soon as Gu Baifei fixed Qinglian’s wind-blown hair on her temples, she grabbed her wrist and fell down on the soft couch. The blue light pattern with concentric veins on her wrist rubbed against her fingertips, spreading a fine halo.

    “Today Gu Lianxi went to Bai Jian’s bamboo house again to steal the spiritual bamboo,” Qing Lian tapped his chest with her fingertips, with a helpless smile in her tone, “When Bai Jian came to complain, his face turned green, saying that your daughter is even more naughty than he was back then.”

    Gu Baifei laughed and pulled her into his arms with his backhand. The tip of his nose was touching the lotus fragrance on the top of her hair: “It’s up to you. Didn’t you secretly pull out the jade beads on the tassel of my sword back then?”

    “How can it be the same?” Qinglian raised her head and glared at him, but did not break away from her arms. “I was just curious. She was blatantly stealing other people’s treasures.”

    The moonlight was getting thicker, and the spiritual stream outside the palace made a soft sound. The light and shadow of the memory crystal swayed in the corner, reflecting the appearance of Su Lian mocking Gu Yan in the mortal world that year.Gu Baifei suddenly lowered his head, bit her earlobe, and said in a very low voice: “You have been in this world for half a year, and you still haven’t finished settling your debt with me.”

    The tips of Qinglian’s ears felt hot. She stretched out her hand to push him but her wrist was grabbed. She could only pretend to be angry and said: “Dignified Lord Gu Xian, do you still hold grudges?”

    “Remember, why don’t you remember,” he stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist with his fingertips, and the smile between his brows and eyes was stained with the moonlight, “but I have to decide how to collect debts.”

    As soon as the words fell, the lotus fragrance in the hall suddenly became a little stronger, and the blue light patterns of the two veins intertwined together, rubbing the moonlight in the room into the two figures standing next to each other.The spiritual bamboo outside the window swayed, startling a few spiritual birds that were sleeping among the leaves, but it did not disturb the gentleness on the couch.

    When the fragrance of the lotus gradually subsided, Qinglian nestled in his arms and panted, tapping his shoulder lightly with her fingertips: “It’s not in shape.”

    Gu Baifei chuckled, helped her gather up her loose clothes, and looked at the stars in the sky outside the palace: “In hundreds of millions of years, this little bit of fireworks is the most solid.”

    Qinglian snorted, but she shrank tighter into his arms. Her nose touched the crisp breath of his clothes, and there was a smile in her eyes that she couldn’t hide: “I guess you still have some conscience.”
