Chapter 20: Pisces Constellation Palace
At this moment, Chen Ling genuinely felt sorry for her. He underestimated just how important he was in the heart of this nonexistent girl.
Dont cry, I havent left. With that, Chen Ling leaned forward and gently kissed her teary eyes.
Wuwu Sui Liers crying instantly stopped, and she slowly lifted her head. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. He kissed me?
What does it mean hes not leaving?
Or does he want to be with me!?
Chen Ling instinctively licked his lips, feeling a bit salty.
Ding~ Target feels happiness, +1 million points!
+1 million points!
The systems voice sounded untimely. It instantly snapped Chen Ling back from his trance. What What am I doing? Did I just kiss her?
He also looked at Sui Lier in his arms, unable to believe it.
Whats going on? Is it a charm skill?
Chen Ling really felt like he was charmed by her! It felt like he was under a spell.
Although Sui Lier had stopped crying, her body was still trembling slightly. She raised her head, her face slightly flushed, and locked eyes with Chen Ling.
The heartbeats of both of them seemed to have an unspoken agreement and accelerated simultaneously. Thump, thump, thump
Chen Ling felt hesitant again and really didnt dare to look into her eyes. He quickly looked away and said, Um Im sorry.
He was apologizing to himself for suddenly kissing her. Wasnt this taking advantage of her
Sui Lier sniffed and said with a hint of grievance, Its okay Its all my fault for getting angry.
Chen Ling shook his head, without explaining or saying anything.
Hehe~ Sui Liers laughter suddenly sounded, Is it true? Youre not leaving?
Chen Ling had already gotten used to her rollercoaster emotions. He nodded, Mm.
Never leave? Sui Lier eagerly awaited Chen Lings answer.
Chen Ling glanced at her and couldnt bear to refuse, Mm, Ill always be with you.
Hehe Sniff ( TT ) Just when Sui Lier was laughing, she suddenly burst into tears.
Chen Ling: ( =.= )
Alright, he still wasnt used to it! Her emotions were like playing a game.
Im sorry Sniff Its not crying, Im happy Sniff She buried her head in Chen Lings embrace, biting her lip. Her small hand tightly grasped Chen Lings clothes, creasing them.
Its good Its good that I waited for you Sniff She truly felt grateful that she had managed to stay strong. And she genuinely felt lucky to have met Chen Ling.
The dark and lonely world was illuminated by him who descended from the heavens. Sunlight and warmth spread, filling every corner of her heart.
Chen Ling stood in place, holding her, feeling somewhat unsure of what to do. To others, Chen Ling appeared like a mannequin, standing there motionless. Passersby couldnt help but glance at him. Once again, he was being regarded as a fool by others.
After a while, Sui Liers crying gradually subsided, and Chen Ling felt her body slowly sinking.
He gently lifted her, holding her in a princess carry.
Um I almost fell asleep! Sui Lier suddenly woke up in his embrace, wiping away the tears that hadnt dried yet.
She smiled at Chen Ling. Hehe~ Lord God, Chen Ling!
You really wont leave, right?
Chen Ling nodded, No, I wont leave. Since he had already promised her, he would fulfill that commitment no matter what.
Um Sui Lier blushed in Chen Lings embrace and didnt say anything further. She was both happy and shy.
In her heart: Are we together now? Does this count? Maybe he sort of kissed me just now even though it was on the eyes. But he didnt confess either If he kisses me one more time then it would really count, right?
With a hint of shyness, she looked at Chen Ling, her face expressing: Will he kiss me again?
Chen Ling couldnt understand her thoughts and simply put her back down, letting her stand on her own.
No more? Sui Lier instantly felt a bit disappointed.
Huh? Whats no more?
Its nothing, its nothing Sui Lier quickly replied.
She pursed her lips and sneakily glanced at Chen Lings lips. Why did I let my inner thoughts slip out
But is that all? Alright then Was he just trying to comfort me by kissing me? Probably
How could the Lord God fall in love with me? Im just a mortal
But its okay! The Lord God is surely busy, yet willing to accompany me. Thats enough to make me content!
Lord no, Chen Ling~
Hmm?
Were friends, right! The gloom on Sui Liers face vanished completely, and her hair returned to its beautiful aquamarine color.
Yeah, I guess so. Chen Ling replied absentmindedly.
Inner thoughts: Why did she say something that only kids would say? Its awkward. Does this persons social skills still remain in childhood?
Chen Ling suddenly realized that it might be true
Her social skills might not have improved at all over the years. She doesnt even have a single friend. Thats why shes accustomed to speaking as if shes talking to herself. With this in mind, Chen Ling found her usual awkward remarks a bit less awkward.
Hehe After receiving Chen Lings affirmation, Sui Lier giggled foolishly.
What are you laughing at again? Chen Ling couldnt understand her and couldnt be bothered to read her mind. It was just a casual question.
With a smile in her eyes, Sui Lier inadvertently squeezed out two teardrops that hadnt dried from earlier: I cant believe I can be friends with a god. Im so happy.
Chen Ling smiled back and said, Yeah, Im also happy to be friends with you.
Upon hearing this, Sui Lier burst into laughter again, gleefully and foolishly.
Seeing that, Chen Ling chuckled inwardly and didnt pursue it further. Instead, he said: Where do you want to go? I can take you to any place in this world.
Um I Im happy as long as Im with you. Wherever you go, Ill go too!
Oh I wont go to the bathroom with you Ahem Before Chen Ling could even speak, she quickly said it.
Chen Ling laughed heartily and started walking ahead. Sui Lier quickly caught up with him.
So where are we going?
Lets find a place with good Feng Shui.
Are we going treasure hunting?!
No, just find a nice place to lie down for five years.
Sui Lier didnt quite understand. Oh Is this some kind of challenge?
Chen Ling nodded. You could say that.
Sui Lier nodded, thinking it was something impressive. That sounds really cool. So where should we lie down?
Chen Ling looked at her. Wherever you want to lie down, well go there.
Really? Okay I know a good place! Hehe Saying that, Sui Lier led Chen Ling to the bridge underpass by the river.
Excitedly running to a worn-out sofa nearby, she happily introduced it: Ding ding ding~ Look! Theres actually a sofa here!
Chen Ling looked at the sofa, feeling somewhat speechless. He felt a bit sorry for Sui Lier, but didnt know what to say.
The sofa was worn-out and old, seemingly abandoned by someone. Being close to the river, it had become a bit moldy. But indeed, this was the place where Sui Lier often lay down.
However, Chen Ling had no intention of lying down here
How about this? Hehe Sui Lier seemed quite proud.
Chen Ling shook his head.
Never mind, I dont rely on you Come with me. Saying that, he gently held Sui Liers hand.
Sui Lier nodded lightly, wanting to say something but hesitated. She glanced at Chen Lings hand and couldnt help but feel: Its so warm Can we keep holding hands?
In the next moment, they appeared in the clouds.
What do you think of this place?
After realizing what had happened, Sui Lier looked down in astonishment, her eyes filled with surprise. What kind of fairyland was this?
A massive temple built on the clouds!
A sacred and solemn temple, surrounded by mist and resembling a heavenly realm.
The colors of aquamarine and moon white intermingled, symmetrically balanced, flawless in every way. Underfoot, the clouds carried this majestic temple, seemingly stretching to no end.
It felt as if this place was not the Rune Continent, but another world altogether.
It was a magnificent architectural marvel that one could only see on the internet, and here it was right before her eyes. Where is this place?
It seems to be called the Pisces Constellation Palace.
The Pisces Constellation Palace?!
