In the room, Xiong Jianqiang sat on the bed with a huff, looking sulky. The two followers saw him and both closed their mouths, not daring to speak. Later, they couldn't bear it anymore and asked cautiously: "Brother Jianqiang, what's wrong?" Xiong Jianqiang slapped the mattress and complained: "Such a great opportunity was ruined by that damned little fox again."
It's no wonder, originally he was just about to take out the hairpin for Dingdang, which was made with great effort and would glow slightly in the evening, looking like a firefly from afar.
Who would have thought that just as he was about to take it out, Dingdang suddenly discovered Xiao Li following behind Lan Tu and Han Tian, and ended up ruthlessly abandoning him. Thinking of this, Xiong Jian's heart grew even more furious.
Here is the translation:
On this side, Dingdang returned to the room and opened the door. Coincidentally, she met Shuilingling in the corridor. Seeing Dingdang's appearance, Shuilingling was startled and hastily asked: "Dingdang, what's wrong with you?" Dingdang saw Shuilingling, and her tears couldn't stop flowing. "Mother..." Dingdang rushed into Shuilingling's arms and started crying. Shuilingling comfortingly stroked Dingdang's head and led her into the room.
On the rooftop, under the deep night sky, Rainbow Cat said softly: "It's late at night, and there's heavy dew outside. You should get some rest early."
Blue Rabbit nodded and jumped off the roof with Rainbow Cat. Halfway through, Blue Rabbit seemed to remember something and asked, "By the way, how's your strength recovering?" Rainbow Cat shook her head and said, "Last time you helped me get rid of the anti-aging spring water in my body, I thought I could recover a bit, but it only released a little bit of Long Hong True Qi. The Huajing Dan that the three pavilion masters gave me only enhanced the power of the wind blade." Blue Rabbit sighed and said, "It seems that to restore your strength, the Jingyuan Pearl is indispensable, and we need to get help from others too." Rainbow Cat comforted him, saying, "Don't think about it anymore, let's rest early. Tomorrow will probably be the men's competition." Blue Rabbit responded with a murmur and returned to his room.
In the room, Dingdang was squatting on Shuiling's knee, sobbing and sniffling like a child who couldn't get candy. Although Shuiling was puzzled in her heart, she also vaguely guessed a few points. She still knew a bit about her daughter's thoughts.
Ding Dang is usually easy-going and has a cheerful personality, but thinking about who could make her cry so painfully, there's only... As she thought of this, Shui Lingling couldn't help but feel some worry.
Forget it, let's ask clearly first. So she gently patted Dangdang's back and asked softly: "What's wrong, Dangdang?" Dangdang finally raised his head and said intermittently: "Mother, Hongmao he..." Shuilingling's heart sank, asking: "Could it be that you really..." Dangdang was taken aback, asking: "Mother, did you know all along?" Shuilingling sighed and said: "Silly child, how could your thoughts possibly deceive me?" Dangdang lowered his head and said: "But Hongmao only has Blue Rabbit in her heart."
Shuiling comforted: "Dingdang, there are many good men in the world, why must you be fixated on Hongmao alone?" Dingdang heard this and lifted his head to say firmly: "No, since I met him, his efforts for the sake of his brothers, his cleverness and decisiveness when faced with difficulties, as well as his magnanimity in forgiving Xiong Jianqiang, all of these have left me deeply moved.
"All along, the one I admired most among the Seven Heroes was right beside me. Perhaps it started as mere admiration, but later on, I discovered that I already... He's happy, and I'm happy too; he's worried, and I'm worried too." Ling'er listened quietly, allowing Dangdang to pour out all her thoughts at once, perhaps this would make her feel a little better. So she asked: "Do as you please, just don't hurt yourself."
As for Dangdang, she didn't want to force her, Shuilingling knew that she should let her go through it herself, and as for the final result, everything depends on fate.
Lan Tu lay on the bed, suddenly seeming to think of something, took out the jade pendant from her bosom, and pondered... what was it after all? At this moment, the door opened and Ding Dang walked in. Lan Tu didn't ask much, and Ding Dang went straight to the bedside and lay down. The two lay on the bed, each lost in their own thoughts, a sleepless night...
