Chapter 412: Chapter 413: Recalling a Scene from the Past
“If that’s the case, I will seek justice for them,” he said.
However, Qiu Ruyue answered without any concealnt, “Because her cousin is our current City Lord, Xuanyuan Bei.”
The man was suddenly stunned.
He was about to slam the table and accuse her of talking nonsense when, the next second, he rembered a scene from the past.
So, he looked at Qiu Ruyue again, examining her carefully, and then he realized she was indeed the little girl from those years ago.
However, she had outgrown her childishness and exuded an aura of a serene and beautiful woman.
“What is your na?” he asked.
It seed that the girl from those years was called sothing with ‘Moon’ in it.
“Qiu Ruyue,” she replied with a slight smile.
Yes, that’s right…Qiu Ruyue…
It was her, the bold little girl who had dared to speak and scold him back then.
Had he not t her again today, he would have nearly forgotten about that incident.
Staring intently at Qiu Ruyue, Xuanyuan Bei suddenly burst into laughter.
He didn’t know why he wanted to laugh, but he felt very happy and just wanted to.
“Why are you laughing?” Qiu Ruyue asked, puzzled.
“It’s nothing. Qiu Ruyue…”
He repeated her na, his voice deep and rich, sounding very pleasing as he uttered those three syllables.
Qiu Ruyue’s heart fluttered slightly, and her cheeks could not help but blush.
Under the dim yellow candlelight, her little face appeared even more exquisitely rosy and beautiful.
Seeing her like this, Xuanyuan Bei suddenly restrained his smile and fell silent.
He quietly watched her, his eyes dark and deep, deeper than the darkest night.
Qiu Ruyue, of course, didn’t know he was staring at her. To ease the fluttering in her heart, she casually asked, “What is your na?”
“Xuan…Xuanluo.”
He told a little lie, because he didn’t want her to know he was Xuanyuan Bei, afraid she would reject him and look down on him.
“Xuanluo? That’s a unique na,” Qiu Ruyue said, lowering her eyes with a gentle smile. “Young Master Xuan, why don’t you stay here tonight and leave tomorrow?”
Xuanyuan Bei was taken aback for a mont and joked, “Aren’t you afraid I might be a bad person?”
She shook her head, “You’re not.”
