Her delicate little face was like a small white flower standing tall and blooming suddenly in the wind and snow, exuding infinite elegance and freshness.
At the moment she appeared, the entire courtyard abruptly lost its color.
Mo Tianji was stunned, only seeing that pure little face suddenly walking from the snow, abruptly invading his vision; the endless falling snow in the sky seemed to vanish at the same time.
For a moment, a poem inexplicably surfaced in his heart: When you have not appeared, the world is splendid, even the snowflakes have countless shapes; when you appear, everything in the world loses its color!
Someone beside him said, "Mo Junshi, this young lady is looking for you..."
Mo Tianji did not hear.
As soon as Chu Le'er entered, she saw a tall young man in pure white clothes standing under the plum blossom tree, his black hair like ink, his deep-set eyes, hands behind his back, as if he held the universe in his grasp and had the world in his heart!
There was an unpredictable demeanor of strategic foresight, an infinitely confident and profound posture, a leisurely and elegant air.
She couldn't help but be stunned.
"Are you Mo Tianji?" Chu Le'er asked curiously.
"I am Mo Tianji. May I ask who you are?" Mo Tianji felt a sudden warmth on his face, hurriedly organizing his somewhat chaotic thoughts, and chuckled lightly. His mood quickly calmed down, and the blush on his face faded away.
"I am Chu Le'er." Chu Le'er tilted her head and asked, "You should know me, right? Has my brother mentioned me to you?"
"So you are Chu Le'er, Sister Le'er." It was not Mo Tianji who spoke, but Ao Xieyun. The evil young master exclaimed in admiration, "I have long heard your name, your brother often mentions you, to the point that it has almost worn our ears out! But now that I see you, I know your brother really can’t describe you; he hasn’t said even a tenth of how beautiful you are, he really lacks adjectives, his vocabulary is simply too poor..."
Ao Xieyun chuckled, "I am Ao Xieyun, the proud of Ao, the evil of Xie, and the cloud of Yun. Your brother must have mentioned me to you, right?"
Chu Le'er laughed, "He has mentioned you. So you are the one known for having wives and concubines like clouds, being lecherous to the core, miserly and greedy, yet very cute and worthy of friendship, Ao Xieyun... I have really heard of you, I often hear your name and your exploits."
Ao Xieyun's radiant smile instantly froze on his face, and for a moment, his expression was extremely colorful.
Somehow, at that moment, Mo Tianji felt an extreme sense of comfort, a rarely seen feeling of 'schadenfreude' rising in his heart. He laughed heartily, "Yes, yes, he is that lecherous and miserly Ao Xieyun... Le'er, your evaluation of him is spot on, truly penetrating and vivid. It’s so illustrative!"
This time, however, Mo Tianji deliberately omitted the words "very cute and worthy of friendship."
Ao Xieyun's face turned completely green, and he said, "What is this? Who introduces their brother like this? Wait until the boss comes back, I will definitely settle this with him! I rarely feel this mortified… to lose face like this in front of a little sister, my image is completely ruined..."
Suddenly, with great interest, he asked, "By the way, what did your brother say about Mo Tianji? A belly full of bad intentions, a mind full of schemes, everything calculated?"
Chu Le'er tilted her head and thought for a moment. Mo Tianji immediately became tense.
"Well, it’s not quite like that. My brother said that Mo Tianji is... very scary, a man-eater who doesn’t spit out bones, cunning and vicious, sweet on the surface but with a dagger hidden behind his smile, all plans accounted for. But he is worth entrusting one’s life to as a brother; as an enemy, he is the most terrifying foe, but as a friend, he is the most reliable brother!" Chu Le'er smiled as she said.
This was indeed Chu Yang's accurate assessment of Mo Tianji, a synthesis of their understanding from two lifetimes.
