Chapter 340: Two Different People

Su Yu watched Ling Wanqing's light chuckle, actually feeling a bit stunned.

Su Yu had just subconsciously seen through Ling Wanqing's disguise.

Under the moonlight, Ling Wanqing's original appearance made the moonlight itself seem like a mere backdrop for her.

Even with his current state of mind and having seen it many times before, that appearance still felt heart-shaking to Su Yu, especially that lightly smiling face.

Ling Wanqing saw this and asked, "What's wrong? Are we not leaving?"

At that moment, Su Yu also felt that throb of emotion.

Su Yu hurriedly withdrew his gaze, and Ling Wanqing returned to her ordinary appearance.

Su Yu was startled, thinking, "That was close."

The two returned to the courtyard, and after parting ways, Su Yu went back to his own home.

Su Yu looked in the direction of Ling Wanqing's room, lost in thought.

At this moment, Ling Wanqing inside her room was the same, looking in the direction of Su Yu's room.

It was as if their hearts resonated with one another.

Time passed like this for over half a year.

At this moment, Ling Wanqing opened her eyes; another year was about to pass.

She was almost ready now; it wouldn't take much longer.

Many things had actually happened over this year.

Ke Qiao's disciple would also come to find the two of them to ask for advice on techniques regarding the Dao of the Zither.

Ling Wanqing would often instruct her, and occasionally she would go to Ke Qiao's place alone to teach her.

Han Ting was different; she would always come from time to time to drag Su Yu and Ling Wanqing out to play.

Moreover, Su Yu had also discovered some of Han Ting's little secrets.

As for Su Yu and Ling Wanqing, during this past year, their relationship had grown closer.

The two would also go to participate in some activities from time to time, and Su Yu would take Ling Wanqing to experience some fun things.

The two would also take on the Incarnation of other Zither cultivators to participate in duo Dao of the Zither competitions, and with the support of that Cultivation Technique, they started to become somewhat famous.

And now, especially for Ling Wanqing, she seemed to have understood the thoughts in her own heart.

During this year, Su Yu's cultivation hadn't made much progress and remained the same, but Su Yu estimated it wouldn't be too long; after all, being in the Mahayana Stage was different, and the time required was naturally longer.

Not to mention the Law, which was even more difficult.

Su Yu looked at the sunrise in the courtyard and calculated the time; it was almost time, and Ling Wanqing should be leaving soon.

Looking at the sunrise on the horizon, Su Yu also already knew that feeling in his heart.

As Ling Wanqing recovered faster and faster, this feeling became more obvious.

Although Su Yu knew it sounded a bit ridiculous, the fact was just like that.

Ling Wanqing also walked out at this moment, saw Su Yu watching the sunrise alone in the courtyard, and walked over to sit beside him.

The two just watched it quietly like that.

Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing in front of him and said, "Your injuries are almost healed, right?"

Ling Wanqing nodded and said, "Yes, almost healed; it won't take much more time."

"Time flies, and it's already been two years. Before I knew it, I've been staying with you for two years."

"Time really passes very quickly."

Su Yu nodded and said, "Yes, time really passes so quickly."

Time waits for no one, and the arrival of this day seemed even faster than Su Yu had imagined.

As time passed, Ling Wanqing in the room opened her eyes; with the help of the innate mysterious ice and mysterious water, she had recovered.

Now, she could already leave.

But for some reason, Ling Wanqing did not want to tell Su Yu this news.

Thus, one month after Ling Wanqing's injuries were mostly healed, she prepared to say it.

This matter couldn't be hidden for long, and she had already delayed telling him for a month.

This was something Ling Wanqing herself had not expected.

Of course, Su Yu also knew that Ling Wanqing was mostly healed, but Su Yu never asked about the condition of her injuries again.

The two just never brought it up.

That evening, Ling Wanqing came before Su Yu.

Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing and her somewhat unusual expression, and he knew that this day had arrived.

Ling Wanqing came before Su Yu, but for a moment, she couldn't bring herself to speak; Ling Wanqing didn't know how to say it.

The words on the tip of her tongue were so difficult to say at this moment.

Ling Wanqing sat beside Su Yu watching the sunset, and for a long, long time, she still didn't say it.

As the sun completely set, Ling Wanqing finally spoke, "My injuries have recovered."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ling Wanqing's heart tightened for some reason.

Su Yu didn't know what his feelings were at this moment; they were somewhat complicated.

"Have they finally recovered?"

Ling Wanqing nodded and said, "Yes."

Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing and asked, "Then when will you leave?"

Ling Wanqing hesitated for a moment before saying, "Tomorrow, I suppose."

Su Yu nodded and said softly, "Good."

Su Yu thought of something and said, "Right, do you want to go for a stroll one more time? Let's treat it as a final memento."

Ling Wanqing did not refuse and said, "Yes, let's go."

Accompanied by the rising moonlight, the two walked along that seemingly distant road.

The two arrived at that Market from before.

Looking at the bustling Market that hadn't changed, there were actually two different people present.

Their moods were quite different from when they had come before.

The two strolled through the Market.

Ling Wanqing looked around and said, "It's still as lively here as it was before."

Su Yu nodded and said, "Yes."

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing would stop from time to time to watch some performances.

Just then, they walked to a vendor selling flower lanterns.

At this moment, Ling Wanqing looked at those flower lanterns.

Su Yu saw this scene and asked, "Do you want to release flower lanterns one more time?"

Ling Wanqing nodded and said, "Yes, let's release them one more time."

The two bought a flower lantern each.

The owner looked at the two as they walked away, thinking it was another couple buying flower lanterns.

Today was a good day; they were almost sold out.

What Su Yu and Ling Wanqing didn't know was what today represented here.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing came to the small stream, and Su Yu noticed that there seemed to be an especially large number of people releasing flower lanterns today, and they were all in pairs.

Su Yu saw this scene and said, "There are a lot of people; why don't we find a place with fewer people? It'll be the same."

Ling Wanqing nodded in agreement.

The two then walked along the upstream.

Soon, they walked to a place with no one around.

Su Yu looked around and said, "Let's do it here."

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing began to light the flower lanterns.

The two came to the side of the small stream together, set the flower lanterns down, and watched the flower lanterns drifting in the water.

It was as if they had thought of something simultaneously; Su Yu thought of the situation when they first came here to release flower lanterns and were misunderstood by others.

At that time, Su Yu didn't think much of it, but now, Ling Wanqing's thoughts were the same as Su Yu's.
