Chapter 466: Taking Revenge on Her Behalf

Pei Qingfeng didn't reply. Instead, he embraced her in a warm hug in the very next instant.

He could tell from her tone of voice that she had endured accusations for a long time. Her eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion and she was tired of all the criticisms she had received over the years.

Since they were the only ones left in the ruins, Pei Qingfeng was not afraid to show his affection for her. He was unable to put into words about how he felt towards her, thus, he decided to give her a hug instead. He whispered in her ear, "I don't care if you're Luochu or Bai Luochu! To me, you'll always be my Luoluo!" He smiled as he tapped her on the nose and joked, "I always knew that you were a little weird! I never expected you to be the evil dao witch."

Pei Qingfeng thought to himself, ideally, Bai Luochu would be extremely touched by what I said. She will probably snuggle her head into my bosom as we share and express our happiness to have each other in our lives!

But unexpectedly, Bai Luochu pushed him away with a cold look on her face and spat, "You're just giving an excuse!"

Pei Qingfeng was shocked speechless. Women really are creatures that are hard to understand...

He didn't have the intention of patronizing her, yet she returned his kind words of concern with such a cold and cruel attitude. Feeling as though his heart had shattered into a thousand pieces, he allowed himself to be pushed away.

"Are you really not afraid of me?" Bai Luochu asked warily. Because of her identity in her past life, she had faced lots of challenges and there were many people carrying out sneak attacks on her. Even though she was stronger than all of them and barely got hurt, she felt extreme pain in her heart when she learned that all they wanted was her to die. She was shocked that Pei Qingfeng wasn't reacting like them when she revealed her true identity.

Bai Luochu stood up and walked towards the scriptures. She seemed to be avoiding something, perhaps she was afraid of Pei Qingfeng's reply.

But Pei Qingfeng was vastly different from Lu Wenshu. Pei Qingfeng would never treat Bai Luochu cruelly as he cared about her feelings, unlike the scumbag, Lu Wenshu.

Pei Qingfeng walked up to Bai Luochu, hugged her from behind and said, "Luoluo, I'm not sure how you ended up in the state you are in today, but I know that you have endured a lot of pain and sadness in your past life. But it's alright. I am here with you now and I always will be. I am willing to stay by your side and wait for the day you open your heart to me."

"..."

"Don't you want to know the horrible things that I have been through? I shall tell you all about it..." Bai Luochu felt a seed of warmth spouting in her heart and she turned to face Pei Qingfeng.

Bai Luochu regaled her tale from the beginning, she told him how she was wrongfully accused, how she fell in love with Lu Wenshu, and all the other horrible things that happened to her. By the end of her tale, Pei Qingfeng's eyes were watery and his body trembled in indignation for her.

"How did it end up like this?" he muttered. He finally understood why Bai Luochu was so cautious and afraid. After years of being betrayed, she had put up walls around herself, as she was afraid of getting hurt again.

Bai Luochu was already numb to the pain to the point that there was even a smile on her face when she was recalling the miserable tale of her painful past. She said to Pei Qingfeng, "That's all that I can recall from my previous life. I think you can finally understand why I don't trust other people easily."

After telling her story, Bai Luochu sat quietly in a corner. The tale that she had told seemed foreign to her, as if it were someone else's experience and not her own.
