Qing Yu scoffed indignantly, but her voice was tinged with a sliver of coyness that she herself was unaware of. “Fat hope.”

Her coy little look made Lou Jun Yao laugh and he looked mischievously at her. “If that is really the case, upon hearing that I am leaving…..”

His long slender fingers held the young lady’s exquisite little chin, his handsome face leaning in close to hers as his captivating voice sounded: “Upon hearing that I’m leaving….. why did your face immediately looked so unhappy?”

“When did I show an unhappy face?” With her chin held in his hand, Qing Yu had nowhere to hide, her gaze unwavering as she stared straight at the man.

Gazing into the mesmerizing pair of violet eyes that shone and sparkled like purple precious stones, filled with mirth and a faint indulgent glint, Qing Yu was caught off guard and inextricably drawn right into them.

Her heart felt like it skipped a beat, enraptured by his tender gaze.

Qing Yu subconsciously lowered her eyes. Again. That same strange feeling.

It was not known when it started, that things between the two of them….. Turned to become different. And the way he gazes at her, it seems to make her feel as if he treasures her very much.

With her gaze lowered and her long lashes playfully curled up, her flawlessly beautiful face bashfully and demurely turned away, she looked so innocent and untainted, unlike her usual mischievous self, a devilishly alluring glint always in the corner of her eyes.

He could still remember back when they had first met each other, when the lass was very much younger, disguised to look like a thin and frail little youth. Who would have thought that she had been hiding her powers, daring to come to the White Fens Lands alone, and succeeded in stealing the Polar Core Fire from him, before vanishing into thin air after that?

He had searched the White Fens Lands for two whole years without any success, for who could have possibly imagined that the nimble fingered little youth would turn out to be a young little lass instead?

But it was not entirely his fault as she had only been about ten years of age back then and her body had not really started to develop at that time, her facial features still yet to mature. So who could possibly tell? Anyone would have thought that the thief was just a handsome looking young boy.

The way she looked now was every inch an alluring demoness, no like that pretty looking youth back then at all.

Lou Jun Yao continued to gaze at her and suddenly started laughing. Had it all been destined by Heaven that she had appeared before him so suddenly to then disappear, before delivering her right to his side once again now.

“What’s so fun…… Mffft…..”

Qing Yu’s eyes flared wide open as her unspoken words were drowned by the sudden kiss on her lips.

After the initial shock passed, her arms that were hanging by her sides suddenly gripped her clothes, and she felt her heart suddenly beating very fast in that instant, the same strange feeling overwhelming her, rendering her helpless.

She just remained in her spot staring into that countenance that was the envy of both gods and mortals, her eyes half closed, as he kissed her with an earnest look on his face.
