Chapter 341: Shock on the Boat 1

"Huh? That enchanting and devilishly charming Nan Gong Liu Yun was withdrawn as a child?" Su Luo's shock was written all over her face.

"Mm, it's related to his mother's death, but he has to tell you about this himself. I can't tell you," Bei Chen Ying said as he stood up. Finally, he gazed deeply at Su Luo, his tone holding a hint of pleading: "Su Luo, it's not easy for Nan Gong to open his heart to someone. Please don't hurt him again, okay?"

Su Luo watched Bei Chen Ying's departing back, lowering her head and falling into deep thought.

She couldn't see any sign at all that Nan Gong Liu Yun was carrying a shadow in his heart. Was it that she simply hadn't noticed his emotions, or did he hide it too well?

And the injuries on his body… were they also related to his childhood? Was his insistence on not treating them also related to those things?

Su Luo's mind was full of questions, but Bei Chen Ying had explicitly said he couldn't tell her. If she wanted to know, she could only ask Nan Gong Liu Yun.

Thwack— A crisp thwack exploded on Su Luo's forehead. Su Luo angrily raised her eyes, meeting Nan Gong Liu Yun's handsome, smiling face.

"What are you thinking about so intently? Be careful, someone could push you into the water and you wouldn't even know." Nan Gong Liu Yun's voice was low and enchanting, his smile pure, like clouds drifting leisurely over a lake, giving off a very comfortable feeling.

Su Luo stared blankly at him. At this moment, he looked very casual and relaxed, yet he possessed an extraordinary aura, like a dragon among men.

Originally, she had always thought Nan Gong Liu Yun was a cynical, reckless, and willful person, but ever since she heard Bei Chen Ying's words just now, when Su Luo looked at Nan Gong Liu Yun again, her gaze couldn't help but carry a hint of scrutiny and inquiry.

His incredibly handsome face carried a smile, his gaze was serene like a deep pool, yet pure like a clear spring.

He was usually consistently aloof, and didn't often smile.

His smiles were clearly distinct, almost completely separate.

The cold, sinister evil smile under extreme rage, and the slightly charmingly evil smile when teasing her.

Aside from that, it seemed she had never seen him smile much.

At this moment, he stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his robe corners fluttering, like an elegant young master standing aloof from the world. With a smile in his eyes, he looked at her with bright, clear eyes, and the smile on his lips widened, actually holding a hint of warmth like spring.

His facial features were exquisitely perfect, simply breathtaking. This smile gave Su Luo the illusion that it could topple empires, as if she was intoxicated and didn't want to wake up.

This man, was he really as Bei Chen Ying said? That he had a tragic past unbearable to recall? A withdrawn childhood?

Su Luo stared blankly at him. For a moment, she didn't know how to speak, or what kind of attitude she should take towards him.

"Is this King that good-looking? That it made you stare foolishly?" Nan Gong Liu Yun's lips curved into a slightly charmingly evil smile.

As expected, this cynical Nan Gong Liu Yun was the most familiar.

Su Luo slowly exhaled. She had originally wanted to glare at him, but remembering Bei Chen Ying's words, she felt that she really hadn't been very good to him, so she changed her tone: "Are you a peacock? So narcissistic all the time, and you're not even ashamed."

"This isn't narcissism, it's confidence, understand?" Nan Gong Liu Yun lightly knocked her head.

"It's exactly narcissism. There's no one more narcissistic than you." Su Luo snorted twice.

Nan Gong Liu Yun wasn't annoyed either; he seemed to be in a very good mood. He took her hand and led her towards the crowd.

Looking at the vast sea outside, Nan Gong Liu Yun asked lazily, "Can you swim?"

Su Luo nodded. "Barely a little."
