Chapter 395 – Secret Love; Knowing the Truth (4)
Gong Zixuan was a bit surprised. She looked at Cheng Xiao Xiao and asked, “Oh? What is it?”
“Big sister Zixuan, have you never found something that you are fond of?” Cheng Xiao Xiao had been meaning to ask this for a while now, but the opportunity never presented itself.
She was about the same age as Mo Xuanzun and the elders had hope that they would become a couple. Except that did not happen and the two of them felt more like siblings toward each other. Now she wasn’t that young any more, she had high social status. On top of that, she was already a martial spiritual before she reached 20 years of age. Anyway one looked at it, she was highly qualified. So how was it that she still hasn’t find anyone yet?
With both look and talent working for her, she should be well sought after by all the promising young men within the top 4 powers. And there should be plenty of young men within the top 4 powers that were good match for her. So, how was it that she was still single?
Recently, she noticed that there was always a hint of melancholy between her brows. That made Cheng Xiao Xiao thought that there must be someone on her mind.
“Oh!”
Gong Zixuan let out a small cry. Obviously, the question caught her off guard. Her normally snow-like white face turned red all of a suddenly. Her bashful look suggested that she was, indeed, fond of someone.
It was somewhat expected and somewhat unexpected, Cheng Xiao Xiao laughed slightly and said, “Big sister Zixuan, I think you should just tell me the truth. Don’t make me make you!”
“Oh, you little brat!”
Gong Zixuan could figure out her intention by the way she was reaching out for her with her claws – Cheng Xiao Xiao was going to tickle her, an area she has no resistance for.
Gong Zixuan gave her a playful stare and slowly the smile on her disappeared. Her limpid eyes covered in a perplexed gaze, as though she had recalled something.
“Me and him was probably never going to happen. Not to mention that he didn’t even know that I exist…” said Gong Zixuan in a very soft voice. There was a shred of bitterness mixed with some disappointment in her look.
Unrequited love! Secret crush!
Those were the two terms that flashed passed Cheng Xiao Xiao’s mind. They described the girl sitting in front of her perfectly. She couldn’t help but to ask, “Big sister Zixuan, I assume you have met him before. Then, do you know where and who he is?”
“Yes!” Gong Zixuan nodded shyly and pursed her lips tightly. She seemed to be struggling to find her words.
Cheng Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes and said, “What? Can’t big sister Zixuan at least tell me who he is? If I know, I can see if there’s anything I can do to help. Please tell me you don’t plan on just waiting around like this indefinitely. You want to go look for him, right?”
“Well, that’s not it…”
Gong Zixuan shook her head and bit down on her lips. She said softly, “He belongs in the Clan of Magical Swords and he is a disciple of one of the elders. I only knew that his family name is Luo and nothing else.”
“Belongs to the Clan of Magical Swords? And you knew that his last name is Luo and a disciple of an elder. That should be enough information for you to find this person. You can have Abacus look for you, or just ask Clan Master Ji. This would be such an easy task for either one of them. Why do you need to be here sulking over your unrequited love?”
Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t understand why Gong Zixuan insisted on wasting her precious time like that. But, seeing how Gong Zixuan was so bashful that she couldn’t even look up, she figured that it was probably because she was way too shy to go and locate this young man.
Thinking about it for a bit longer, Cheng Xiao Xiao asked curiously, “Big sister Zixuan, haven’t it ever occurred to you to find some excuse to go to Clan of Magical Swords and look for this person in disguise? Should at least be able to locate him!”
