    Chapter 728 Breaking off the Engagement

    Jiang Qing’e’s departure was scheduled for two days later.

    This meant that she could not even follow Luo Lan Mansion’s team back to Nanfeng City, but everyone knew that this was impossible because Jiang Qing’e’s time was too tight, and her burning bright heart was consuming her vitality all the time. If she delayed for one more day, her bright heart problem would become more serious.

    So after confirming that Shengguang Ancient Academy could solve the problem of burning bright hearts, Li Luo decided to let Jiang Qing’e set off as soon as possible, although he was extremely reluctant to give up.

    On the spacious road, Luo Lan Mansion’s long motorcade had no beginning or end.

    As we gradually move away from Daxia City, the world here has once again regained its former peace and tranquility. There is no pollution from evil thoughts between the world and the sky, and even the sunshine has become warm again.

    However, although the influence of the evil thoughts has been eliminated, the atmosphere in the huge convoy of Luo Lan Mansion is still a bit dull, because everyone knows that Jiang Qing’e, who is the pillar of Luo Lan Mansion, will leave Daxia in two days and go to the immeasurably distant Inner Divine State.

    Jiang Qing’e’s departure undoubtedly affected the morale of Luo Lan Mansion. After all, her personal charm in Luo Lan Mansion was too strong, which even Li Luo could not compare with.

    It was she who single-handedly stopped the chaos and division when Luo Lan Mansion was at its most precarious. At that time, she had just entered Shengxuanxing Academy to practice. Her strength and charisma had penetrated deeply into the hearts of everyone in Luo Lan Mansion in the past few years.

    In her body, everyone saw the shadow of Tantai Lan.

    But they all also understood that Jiang Qing’e had paid a heavy price in order to force Shen Jinxiao to retreat. If she did not leave, she would soon die. Compared to the latter, they would naturally rather Jiang Qing’e go to the Ancient Academy.

    They believe that as long as Jiang Qing’e can solve this problem, her talent will shine brightly no matter where she is.

    Inside a large carriage of the motorcade.

    Li Luo and Jiang Qing’e sat opposite each other on both sides of the coffee table. The car windows were wide open, and the dense forests on both sides extended their shade under the sunlight.

    Jiang Qing’e’s expression was a little lazy. This kind of relaxed look rarely appeared on her before, but perhaps because of her own condition, she seemed more and more relaxed these days.

    Li Luo’s eyes have been fixed on the beautiful face of the goddess in front of him. Although he has seen it for more than ten years, he feels that he can never get tired of looking at it. There is no way, it is so beautiful. Those exquisite facial features are as if God has painstakingly carved them. Every frown and smile exudes endless charm.

    “Everyone’s morale is very low. We still haven’t let out the news that you will leave.” Jiang Qing’e fiddled with the teacup and said helplessly.

    It is conceivable that once the news is released that Li Luo will be gone for a long time, it will have a huge impact on the morale of Luo Lan Mansion.

    In fact, if you are not careful, you may be disbanded directly.

    After all, the two pillars of the family are gone, and the Luo Lan Mansion is really feeling a little distraught.

    However, Li Luo didn’t answer. His eyes were still wandering on Jiang Qing’e’s cheek, pausing on the red lips from time to time, as if he was thinking about something.

    Sensing Li Luo’s increasingly unscrupulous gaze, Jiang Qing’e’s lazy look faded, and her eyes immediately returned to their previous calmness and sharpness. She glanced at Li Luo lightly, her eyes full of warning.

    Li Luo then reluctantly looked back and said: “There is no way, it needs to be announced after all, and the impact will definitely be there. But fortunately, the situation in Daxia has changed drastically. The Jiyan Mansion and the Jinque Mansion have retreated to the north with the regent, and there will be no chance to target the Luolan Mansion again in the future. So in the short term, the Luolan Mansion does not have any external enemies. In terms of living environment, it is better than before.”

    “With Sister Cai Wei and Sister Lingqing here, although the Luo Lan Mansion cannot expand, it is enough to maintain it. Moreover, with the help of Instructor Xi Chan, there won’t be any big problems.”

    As Li Luo spoke, he sighed again and said resentfully: “Why is it that only Dean Ling is qualified to recommend people?”

    Seeing that this guy was still struggling with this matter, Jiang Qing’e was a little amused and said: “Because Dean Ling was the tutor of Shengguang Ancient Academy in the past, she is the only one who has the recommendation quota in the entire Daxia.”

    However, looking at Li Luo’s listless look, Jiang Qing’e felt a little helpless, so she stretched out her hand and said: “I will set off with Dean Ling in the next two days. I probably won’t be able to reach Nanfeng City, so maybe what I promised you can be completed now.”

    “What’s going on?” Li Luo didn’t come back to his senses for a while. Jiang Qing’e’s problems had been bothering him all the time these days, and he had no intention of thinking about anything else.

    Jiang Qing’e cautiously raised her chin as sharp as snow and reminded: “Engagement.”

    Li Luo sat up straight in an instant. He stared at Jiang Qing’e for a few seconds, and then solemnly took out a delicate box from the space ball. When he opened the box, a piece of light yellow paper came into view.

    On the paper, there are delicate and slightly childish handwriting.

    Jiang Qing’e looked at the light yellow paper with a smile, a look of nostalgia emerged in her eyes, and a picture emerged in the depths of her memory. Back then, the little girl held a pen and seriously wrote down an engagement contract to “sell” herself under the light.

    In fact, this marriage contract is not binding in any way, and no one would really take something written by a little girl like this seriously, but Jiang Qing’e took it seriously.

    “Dad is really annoying. I beat him for three days for this matter, and the entire Luo Lan Mansion heard the screams.” Li Luo looked at the engagement paper and couldn’t help but sigh.

    That time, Tantai Lan was actually really angry. Although her father was just talking casually after drinking, Jiang Qing’e’s character was so accepting of death sometimes. Once she got serious, no one could pull her back.

    So Tantai Lan walked with anger in those days. Except for Jiang Qing’e who comforted her like an adult, no one in the entire Luo Lan mansion dared to appear around her, including Li Luo himself.

    With an unusually gentle smile on her lips, Jiang Qing’e said softly: “I like this home very much, so I don’t resist it.”

    “Sister Qing’e, it’s one thing if you don’t resist, but it’s another thing if you really like her.” Li Luo said seriously.

    Jiang Qing’e’s eyes flashed, and she said with a half-smile, “Then do you think I really like you now?”

    Li Luo thought for a while and said, “Anyway, I really like it.”

    “When did you like it?” Jiang Qing’e’s golden eyes were filled with bright colors. At the same time, her words were bold and not too shy.

    “Maybe it started when you hit me for the first time when I was a kid.” Li Luo said with a smile.

    “It turns out he is a masochist.” Jiang Qing’e said in surprise.

    Li Luo rolled his eyes and suddenly asked: “But speaking of it, it seems that I have never heard my father and mother mention the issue of your life experience, Sister Qing’e.”

    He remembered that when Li Taixuan and Tantai Lan went out to bring Jiang Qing’e back, the latter was about four or five years old, but it seemed that they had never said anything about her life experience, where she came from, and where her parents were from.

    Jiang Qing’e was startled when she heard this, and was silent for a while, then said: “I don’t have any memory of this.”

    She frowned slightly and murmured: “My memory seems to be from the first time I met Master and Master’s Wife. The memories before that are all dark.”

    Li Luo also frowned, is it so strange?It seems that Sister Qing’e’s life experience is also a bit strange, and he still remembers that when he saw Tantai Lan’s photo before, she said that their mother and son owed Qing’e something?What does this mean?

    He was thinking about it, but he had no clue. In the end, he could only shake his head.

    Then he pulled his mind back, took out the engagement paper, and pushed it over.

    “Sister Qing’e, I will return this engagement to you.” He looked very solemn, as if he had completed some kind of ceremony.

    Jiang Qing’e gently pressed the engagement contract with her slender jade fingers, glanced at it, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and said: “Li Luo, from now on, there will be no other relationship between us.”

    Her words were a little careless: “Do you still remember that time when I returned to Nanfeng City a year ago? At that time, you proposed breaking off the engagement to me for the first time. I said that if the engagement was broken, I might not want anything in the future.”

    The teasing look in her golden eyes became more intense, and then she stared at Luo Li, who was pretending to be calm.

    “Li Luo, are you panicking now?”
