Chapter 308: Chapter 308: He Finally Experiences the Agony of a Rending Heart! Chapter 308: Chapter 308: He Finally Experiences the Agony of a Rending Heart! Gu Qiaoqiao ultimately gave a little nod, “Okay, I promise you.”
It’s not like she would go to the peak of a mountain by herself anyway.
Then, she felt Qin Yize’s seemingly tense emotions relax a little.
Relieved, Qin Yize felt the fragrant and soft body in his arms twitch against his chest.
Involuntarily, he tightened his arms just before his breathing could hasten, and slowly released Gu Qiaoqiao, speaking in a hoarse and calm voice, “It’s good you brought clothes. You can change behind that big stone over there. I’ll keep watch for you…”
As he stood up, his aloof yet imposing gaze swiftly swept over Gu Qiaoqiao.
And that delicate figure seed to transform into a web of longing in a matter of monts, enveloping Qin Yize’s heart so tightly that he struggled amidst the heat, experiencing a sensation he had never felt before.
He turned around hastily and swiftly.
With a heart thumping chaotically, he walked towards the big stone.
And Gu Qiaoqiao also realized the state she was in, feeling a mix of embarrassnt and cluelessness…
Instinctively, she turned to glance at Qin Yize, only to find him standing with his back facing her, hands on his hips, as firm and imposing as a towering mountain.
Did he see?
He must not have seen…
Gu Qiaoqiao told herself that he probably hadn’t seen.
Because it seed like he walked away to the big stone right after letting go of her.
…
Still, Gu Qiaoqiao’s face burned, and she hastily turned her head away.
Flustered, she grabbed the clothes she brought to change into and went behind the big stone.
This stone was huge.
Like a wind-blocking wall.
Not wanting to delay, she quickly changed her clothes, then looked at the cloth bag and took Qin Yize’s clothes out, placing them on the stone, “You should change your clothes too.”
With that, Gu Qiaoqiao took the wet clothes to the riverside.
Although there was water here, it was too murky to wash clothes.
And by this ti, Qin Yize had already changed. As he buttoned up his shirt, he watched Gu Qiaoqiao, crouching by the river, his starry eyes dimd, his face cool and somber.
He thought of the scene he had just witnessed. His hand clenched on the button tightened, and only after a mont did he relax and fasten the final button.
The figure of Gu Qiaoqiao beyond the light was her, yet it seed not her.
Slim, with black hair graying, as though she were fifty or even sixty years into the future.
But that couldn’t be right.
The him who was embracing this Gu Qiaoqiao and wailing with sorrow seed more mature than now, yet still young.
Barely past thirty.
So, was it a vision of the future?
Qin Yize sneered, what nonsense about a vision of the future? How could Qiaoqiao possibly beco so old?
Moreover, she had no reason to leap off a cliff to her death!
Qin Yize’s body tensed up instantly as he recalled those four words, his heart feeling as if it had been stabbed with a sharp knife.
He couldn’t help but clutch the fabric over his heart.
So painful…
It seed he had never felt such pain before.
He finally understood what it ant to feel heartache as if being cut by a knife!
After a long while, he looked at that delicate figure and took a deep breath.
It was an illusion.
An illusion caused by a whirlpool.
It must be because he had been thinking about Gu Qiaoqiao often these days.
Yes, that’s right!
That’s how it was!
And with him here, nothing bad would happen to Qiaoqiao.
He shook his head vigorously, as if by doing so he could throw off all those unknown fears.
He picked up the wet clothes and the bag containing the Gold Jade Stone and quickly walked towards Gu Qiaoqiao.
