Chapter 1339 - 1338: Always Devoted

Hearing what Leng Qingqiu said, Lu Yu's whole body jolted, and he stared at her with eyes full of shock.

Right now, Lu Yu had never imagined that Leng Qingqiu would say something like this.

Words like these were unbelievably heartfelt, so heartfelt that even someone as always indifferent as Leng Qingqiu would actually say them.

This Leng Qingqiu, who had always been icy cold and pushed people a thousand miles away at the slightest thing, was now directly speaking out her feelings like this.

For someone as cold as Leng Qingqiu, saying something like this was really unheard of.

At this moment, Lu Yu truly hadn't expected that Leng Qingqiu would say such words.

Just how much resolve does a person need to completely reverse their own personality and say something like this.

"Ever since the night before last,"

Seeing the shock on Lu Yu's face, Leng Qingqiu looked at him and continued on her own, "the way you risked your life to protect me made me understand one thing."

"Turns out in this world, there really is someone who's willing to risk his life to protect me."

"From last night on, I finally realized that five years ago, your feelings for me were really sincere!"

As she spoke, there was a slight tremble in Leng Qingqiu's voice. She looked at Lu Yu in front of her, a trace of gentleness flickering in her eyes.

Hearing this, Lu Yu shook his head. He looked at Leng Qingqiu and said, "I've always been sincere, it's just that you never believed it."

As he spoke, Lu Yu helplessly shook his head. His body moved slightly as he jumped out of the bathtub, his figure leaving a faint afterimage. He grabbed a bath towel and wrapped it around himself, then said, "But I can't blame you. Five years ago I really was wild and unruly. It's normal that you were prejudiced against me."

By the time he finished speaking, Lu Yu had already wrapped the towel tightly around himself. He looked at Leng Qingqiu, and in his eyes there was still a hint of tenderness.

Looking at the current Leng Qingqiu in front of him, his eyes were filled with deep affection.

"But now I understand!"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Leng Qingqiu looked at him and said, "Five years ago, I really was too cold, too heartless. I didn't consider your feelings for me. That was also because of my personality…"

At this point, her voice dropped a little. Her face flushed a rosy red as she stared at Lu Yu, a hint of resolve flashing in her eyes. Then she said, "But because of you, my personality can change!"

As she spoke, Leng Qingqiu's eyes were full of determination. Looking at Lu Yu, she seemed utterly firm!

But because of you, my personality can change!

Hearing this sentence, Lu Yu couldn't help but freeze. He looked at Leng Qingqiu, shock filling his eyes.

Lu Yu had never expected that Leng Qingqiu would actually say something like this!

"In the past I didn't understand your feelings for me. I only knew you were a cynical playboy, drinking and partying every day."

Looking at Lu Yu, Leng Qingqiu said, "But now, I've gotten to know the real you. So I can make changes too!"

"You really want to change?"

Hearing her words, Lu Yu smiled. He looked at Leng Qingqiu and said, "Since that's the case, how about we go watch a movie together now?"

As he spoke, the corners of Lu Yu's lips curled up slightly into a smile. He looked at Leng Qingqiu, his eyes full of playful teasing.

You have to know, five years ago, Lu Yu had invited Leng Qingqiu to watch a movie countless times, but every single time she flatly rejected him. So now, after hearing what she had just said, Lu Yu once again brought up this old "watch a movie" request.

"No problem."

Hearing Lu Yu's suggestion, Leng Qingqiu agreed very straightforwardly. She looked at him and asked, "When are we leaving?"

She didn't even know why, but right now she felt that anywhere was fine—as long as she was with Lu Yu, she could accept it.

"Let's go now."

Hearing her question, Lu Yu smiled and said, "It's not that late yet. It's just about time for the late-night screenings to start. We can go catch one."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's face was full of smiles. Between his words there was a hint of playful mischief, and that old cynical expression from five years ago surfaced again.

Seeing that familiar, carefree look on his face, Leng Qingqiu felt as if she was seeing that wild, unruly boy from five years ago, and she couldn't help but let a small smile slip onto her face.

Five years had passed in a flash. That once reckless boy had become calm and mature, and there was already a trace of weariness in his features.

Five years had changed many things, but what hadn't changed was the heart Lu Yu had always held for her!

So much time had passed, yet Lu Yu still protected Leng Qingqiu with everything he had, even stepping in front of her to block Max's attack. Actions like that no longer needed any verbal explanation—his actions were the best proof!

In this world, there are always too many sweet words of love, but far too few people who actually act on them. Those who truly put their words into action are rarer still. So now, Leng Qingqiu felt nothing but deep emotion and regret toward Lu Yu!

She regretted why she hadn't acknowledged Lu Yu five years ago, why she'd insisted on looking at him through colored glasses!

Lu Yu had indeed been young and frivolous, but that never conflicted with the feelings he had for her!

"Mm!"

Thinking of this, Leng Qingqiu nodded hard. Looking at Lu Yu, a faint smile spread across her slightly flushed cheeks.

Leng Qingqiu had rarely smiled since she was a child. After she grew up, her smiles were even rarer. There were very, very few people who had ever seen her smile.

But now, in front of Lu Yu, Leng Qingqiu actually showed such a smile.

This smile was very sweet, and paired with her stunning features, it really had a kind of world-toppling charm!

Seeing her smile like this, Lu Yu also nodded and let a small smile appear on his face.

Now, Leng Qingqiu and Lu Yu had finally cleared away their old barriers and were standing together again from the beginning. The misunderstandings and suspicions of the past were gone, and what remained was a feeling between them that words could no longer describe.
