Chapter 924 What relationship? (1/2)
Zhou Yuan also felt a little suffocated.
He stared at the vaguely familiar figure. Su Youwei was undoubtedly more mature than before, and even her temperament had changed.
Back then, Su Youwei, who always followed Zhou Yuan around, was bright and cute and had a girl-next-door charm. Now, she still had the same smile as before and gave off a gentle nature, but the self-confidence and radiance she exuded were enough to make many outstanding men feel ashamed of themselves.
The young and inexperienced girl from before had become dazzling.
Her radiance dazzled even Zhou Yuan for a moment, and his heart trembled when he saw the clear eyes with which she stared at him.
He had thought about the scene of meeting Su Youwei once again. He would understand even if she chose to keep a distance from him because the change in her identity and status was too great.
When a person became dazzling, they wouldn’t like to think of their humble and ordinary times.
Therefore, Zhou Yuan had thought that if Su Youwei really didn’t want to have anything to do with her past memories, he would pretend not to know her. They could act like strangers. He wouldn’t think that Su Youwei owed him anything. Back then, it was just a moment of sympathy when he had kicked the door to the hospital under the heavy rain. He really didn’t do anything for her.
What Su Youwei had sacrificed for the Great Zhou was already enough to repay him, and he wouldn’t ask Su Youwei to do anything for him.
But when he saw the emotions in Su Youwei’s eyes, he couldn't help smiling bitterly in his heart because he saw the same emotions as he had back then.
There wasn’t the slightest change, and with time, it had become more and more intense.
This made Zhou Yuan feel even more ashamed because he had thought the worst of her, but she still thought the best of him.
So, he evaded Su Youwei's eyes and, in an unusual occurrence, lost his composure.
But Su Youwei's clear eyes were still fixed on Zhou Yuan's body, persistent and tough, just like her character.
After a moment, Zhou Yuan took a deep breath, raised his head and met her gaze.
Under the setting sun, within the clamorous Fallen City, the two locked eyes, and time seemed to freeze for a moment.
Countless people were also aware of the strangeness because Su Youwei, besides shooting a glance at Xu Ming at the beginning, had kept her eyes fixed on Zhou Yuan.
Now, with them gazing at each other, the scene gave messages of love no matter how they looked at it.
What is this?
It was during this time that Xu Ming finally recovered from the shock. Scanning across the white jade fragments all over the ground, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he asked while suppressing his anger, “Su Youwei, what do you mean by this? Why did you destroy my puppet beasts?!”
Su Youwei's long eyelashes fluttered as she retracted her gaze and turned to Xu Ming, speaking in a somewhat apologetic tone, “I already told you the Genesis Qi in my body is a little out of control today.”
Xu Min fumed inwardly, Who do you think you can trick with that!? Who would believe this reason?!
Xu Ming drew a deep breath and said, “Is that right? I have other puppets. Surely your Genesis Qi won't get out of control again, will it?”
Su Youwei smiled. “I feel like my Genesis Qi will always be out of control today.”
Xu Ming felt the veins throbbing on his forehead. “Is the Zixiao Region going to intervene in the battle between my Yaogui Region and the Tianyuan Region?”
“I'm representing myself,” Su Youwei stated.
Gasps and exclamations erupted from the crowd. Su Youwei's words clearly indicated that she was going to help the Tianyuan Region, or maybe she wanted to help Zhou Yuan.
What's the story between these two people?!
Even Yi Qiushui, Lu Xiao, Mu Liu and the others looked at Su Youwei in surprise, and then they turned to look at Zhou Yuan.
They were also clueless about the situation.
This was particularly so for Yi Qiushui. She knew about Zhou Yuan's identity in Cangxuan Heaven, and Zhou Yuan had always been with her after coming to Hunyuan Heaven, so how could he have met the famous Su Youwei? And from both their expressions, their relationship didn’t seem so simple!
