"Of course, as long as the result is the same." Lin Qianxuan said.
To love someone's appearance is love, to love his personality is love, to love his wealth is love, to love his abilities is also love. If it's love out of gratitude, can't it be love?
Emotions are inherently complex and difficult to explain. As long as they are willing to respect this feeling in the end, it is genuine love.
"Can she be saved now?" Jiang Mengli asked.
"Not yet." Lin Qianxuan said after a moment of silence.
Even though it had reached sixty percent in advance, he still felt he wasn't very confident.
A hundred percent strategy completion, the current feeling of gratitude, seemed still insufficient.
Jiang Mengli didn't show any disappointment but smiled and leaned closer.
Since the future is uncertain, just enjoy the present.
.....
On the second evening in the Saint Realm.
Lu Tao handed the Dragon Scale Immortal Armor and Dragon Horn Spear left by the dragon head to Lin Qianxuan.
Under the moonlight, Lin Qianxuan put on both Immortal Artifacts.
Then he looked at Jiang Mengli and said, "Do I look like the dragon head now?"
"Lin Qianxuan is Lin Qianxuan, why do you want to look like someone else?" Jiang Mengli pinched Lin Qianxuan's nose and said, "Silly younger brother."
"Why do you always like to pinch my nose?" Lin Qianxuan removed her hand, touched his nose, and said.
"Because it's such a clown-like nose, you consistently fail and still keep licking." Jiang Mengli laughed.
"A clown nose?" Lin Qianxuan countered, "But I licked it!"
"Put away the Immortal Armor first, I'll dance for you." Jiang Mengli looked at Lin Qianxuan and solemnly said, "A dance for my silly brother Lin Qianxuan."
Lin Qianxuan was somewhat flattered.
This was the first time she danced not because of an obsession.
With a thought, Lin Qianxuan stored away the Dragon Scale Immortal Armor and Dragon Horn Spear.
Jiang Mengli let her hair down, her fingers adorned it, and exquisite and beautiful hair accessories quickly appeared atop her head. Her silver-white long hair naturally interwove, forming a dignified and beautiful hairstyle she fashioned with her spell.
She lightly leaped into the moonlight, and her long dress gained numerous elaborate gold and silver patterns, resembling ancient palace attire, slightly intricate.
As she stepped on the lake formed by Spiritual Energy, creating a ripple, the golden fragments on her silver hair shimmered, and the earrings reflected the bright and radiant moonlight, deeply attracting Lin Qianxuan's gaze.
That swaying figure, as beautiful as a celestial fairy.
Stirring his endless emotions.
It was different from seeing her in the game.
In the game, her face carried sorrow, as if she were a fairy locked in the Jade Palace, her eyes full of lonely bitterness.
But this time, her eyes flowed with autumn waves, expressing joy, her bright eyes like stars, affectionately gazing, grateful for the devotion to die together with her.
Lin Qianxuan was once an ordinary man hustling for life, with limited artistic appreciation.
But at this moment, he also felt he understood art.
At some point, the True Flame in his hand surged and transformed into a flute.
Then he played a self-composed piece called "Dragon Glide."
This melody was joyful and lofty, originally his self-created theme song, although he later found he never had the chance to use it.
Jiang Mengli understood the meaning from the tune and began dancing to the rhythm of Lin Qianxuan's playing.
Her body moved like a swimming dragon, gracefully approaching.
She leaned back, extended a leg, her pristine jade toes tapping without a trace of dust, a toe gently touched Lin Qianxuan's chest, interrupting his rhythm for a moment, as she sprang away dancing again.
Lin Qianxuan forcibly calmed his chaotic thoughts and continued to play.
Could she see through his little kink?
Of course, it couldn't be concealed in front of her.
Would she think he's a pervert?
But... what's wrong with a man being a bit perverted?
Lin Qianxuan continued to appreciate the dance and play the music.
At this moment, Jiang Mengli's Misty Qi further connected with him, Lin Qianxuan estimated, it should be over seventy percent now.
He was truly grateful to Bo Mu, the flamboyant guy, for learning to play the flute just for show back then, also creating this piece.
Otherwise, he would just be drooling, watching with wide eyes, without any sense of participation, unable to enhance this good impression.
After the dance, Jiang Mengli appeared beside Lin Qianxuan and asked, "Was it beautiful?"
"If I said it wasn't, would you beat me up?" Lin Qianxuan asked.
"I'd beat you till you couldn't take care of yourself!" Jiang Mengli threatened, glaring playfully.
"You're breaking your cold and royal sister persona." Lin Qianxuan said.
"Do I have that persona?" Jiang Mengli asked, puzzled.
"Well, you only have the fun-loving royal sister persona." Lin Qianxuan chuckled, then seriously said, "It was beautiful, breathtakingly so."
"Your music was nice too." Jiang Mengli praised Lin Qianxuan with a smile, then looked into the distance, her expression turning slightly reminiscent, "That dance is called 'Luoshen', the dragon head had seen someone else dance it before, but he only appreciated the dance, outright refusing that sister, making her sad for a long time!"
"The dragon head is really a bit oblivious to romance." Lin Qianxuan said.
"Do you understand romance?" Jiang Mengli leaned against Lin Qianxuan and said, "You accept anyone, a total philanderer."
"I don't! I'm just accepting destiny's arrangement." Lin Qianxuan said.
"This time, you don't have to accept it." Jiang Mengli said, "Clearly there's no hope...."
"But what if?" Lin Qianxuan said.
"Clown!" Jiang Mengli laughed.
"Ace!" Lin Qianxuan rebutted.
"Clown."
"Ace."
"Clown...."
....
The two bickered like children.
"Silly younger brother, you're getting a bit too fickle." Jiang Mengli looked seriously at Lin Qianxuan and said.
"Is it possible that it's one heart shattered into many pieces?" Lin Qianxuan unwittingly said a line from some old philanderer's handbook.
"Then I want the biggest piece." Jiang Mengli said.
"Right now, it's all yours." Lin Qianxuan said.
For a moment, they fell into silence.
They both knew that just after this moment of peace, they would face a life and death trial and were likely to die together in this world.
"You could stay here, think of another way later, Earth still needs you, and Long'Er and the others need you too...." Jiang Mengli said.
"I don't want to give up without a fight." Lin Qianxuan gazed intently at Jiang Mengli and said, "This time is going smoother than before, what if my desperate effort moves your heart?"
"Silly younger brother, you have already moved me." Jiang Mengli caressed Lin Qianxuan's cheek and said, "This is where you and he are different. In his eyes, the bigger picture always matters most, even willing to sacrifice his life for it."
"I'm just lack of that big picture perspective, too selfish, only considering myself when doing things." Lin Qianxuan nodded and said.
Jiang Mengli hugged Lin Qianxuan's neck, smiling as she gently led him down, and Lin Qianxuan followed suit, lightly pecking her lips.
Unknowingly, the Misty Qi had completely intertwined with him, henceforth, sharing destiny, living and dying together...
