At the other end, Jiu Mu Li was completely unaware of everything that was happening behind her.
In front of the Gongquan, a small figure stood alone under the moonlight.
However, this scene only lasted for an instant before it was shattered. Turning his head, his countenance was as cold as a statue.
Being pointed out the problems in his body at such a young age, Jiu Mu Li could not help but roll his eyes.
she muttered indignantly. ”You're just a wet behind the ears kid, and you know what you're talking about?”
The boy's action of curling her lips was directly hit by him. Under his pair of dark and deep eyes, she couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine.
Could it be that this scene was going to change in an instant?
The truth proved that she was overthinking things.
The boy turned his face and looked at her intently, then said, word for word, ”Do you believe me if I say that I was not originally like this?”
”I do!” Jiu Mu Li resolutely nodded his head.
No matter how she looked at it, her childish face, coupled with her old manner, made her feel full of disharmony. On the contrary, what the little boy said was not true.
If he were to act according to the manner in which the little boy showed …
She half-closed her eyes, drawing out a human figure in her mind.
He should be a young man at the prime of his life, and a well-deserved expert at that. He would treat human lives like grass and treat everything with indifference. Furthermore, with the boy's jade-like, carved face, it was easy to imagine that this man was handsome and had an ice-cold expression. After three hundred and sixty-five days, only paralysis could be seen on his face.
This imagination of his caused Jiu Mu Li to involuntarily smile, and almost let out a laugh. This was what she imagined was most fitting for a boy!
Seeing that she immediately believed his words, a hint of astonishment flashed across the boy's black eyes. However, that surprise only lasted for a moment, and he quickly returned to his calm demeanor. He raised his face and looked at the full moon in the sky.
He mumbled absentmindedly, ”It's not enough … ”A little while more …”
”What's not enough?” Jiu Mu Li caught on to his words and sized him up.
This little boy was only so young, what kind of major event did he have to do? And to invite her here late at night just to admire the moon?
”I'm waiting, full moon.” The boy was murmuring softly, his voice filled with an urgent desire for the full moon.
Full moon... Jiu Mu Li thought of all sorts of bridges, such as the werewolves on the full moon night or the ghosts in the wilderness who only appeared at the full moon.
The little boy raised his head and looked at her in astonishment. He felt that this woman's face was like a palette, constantly changing in a unpredictable manner. An indescribable emotion filled her eyes.
”You, you, you … …. Could he be some legendary werewolf? ” Jiu Mu Li retracted his shoulders, and felt a chill in his heart, ”Usually she will maintain her human form, but every full moon night, she will remove her disguise and return to her original form.”
The boy was stunned by her words. After a full three seconds, a bitter expression appeared on his face as he looked up at the sky in silence.
