Chapter - 221 The Hidden Loveless Valley (2)

The girl's eyes opened wide and asked, "What?"

Yang Guo said, "A beautiful girl's name. To have the opportunity to come across a beautiful woman is an extremely lucky event, to be able to see the smile of a beautiful girl would be because of the good deeds of their ancestors and one must go through three lifetimes…" Before he finished the girl giggled again.

Yang Guo continued looking serious and said, "To be able to hear a beautiful girl reveal her name that really requires eighteen generations of great deeds."

The girl said, "I'm not some beautiful girl; no one in the valley has ever called me beautiful, why must you joke?"

Yang Guo sighed and said, "No wonder this place is called the Passionless Valley. But in my opinion, the name should be changed to something else."

The girl said, "Change to what?"

Yang Guo said, "It should be called Blind Man's Valley."

The girl asked surprised, "Why?"

Yang Guo said, "Look at how beautiful you are but none of them praise you; aren't the people who live in this valley blind?"

The girl laughed again. Her beauty could be classed as first class but compared to Xiao Longnu's; there were still many li between them. Compared to the gentleness of Cheng Ying and the prettiness of Lu Wushuang, she appeared to be slightly inferior. But she was elegant, graceful and there was a wholesome air about her. No one had praised her beauty before, and this was because the martial arts her valley practiced revolved around abdication. When her fellow apprentices see each other they are always cold and remain unmoved. In the hearts of her fellow apprentices though, they did think that she was very beautiful but none of them dared to say it out loud.

Today she suddenly met Yang Guo. This person's character was dynamic and spirited, the stricter and more restrained she acts, the greater the urge he has to make her get rid of this unfeeling appearance. The girl was pleased with these words and laughed, "I'm afraid that you're the blind man, calling this ugly girl a beautiful girl."

Yang Guo put on a serious face and said, "You never know, my eyes could be wrong. However if you want this valley to remain peaceful and quiet then you can't smile."

The girl asked surprised, "Why?"

Yang Guo said, "There's an old saying: 'a smile can overturn a city, another can overturn a country', that saying really ought to be changed. It shouldn't be country; it should be changed to valley."

The girl bowed subtlety and laughed, "Thank you, can you stop teasing me please?"

Yang Guo saw her fine, elegant waist and trembled slightly, his heart was moved. Although it wasn't an intense feeling, his finger suddenly broke out in a severe pain again.

When the girl saw him waving his finger about, she felt slightly displeased and said angrily, "I'm talking to you right now yet you're thinking about your lover."

Yang Guo said, "I'm innocent, I'm innocent, it's because of you that my finger hurts and here you are blaming me."

The girl blushed and suddenly ran away.

Yang Guo immediately regretted his words as soon as he said them, thinking, "My heart belongs to Gu Gu yet why haven't I changed this type of behavior? Yang Guo ah Yang Guo you little bastard, don't talk such rubbish again." He inherited some of his father's scoundrel's attitude and ungentlemanly behavior. Every time he met a girl he would tease and flirt with them, causing them to fall for him as a result. Although he didn't have any ill intentions, it was something that made him feel joy in his heart.

The girl ran for a few tens of feet and suddenly stopped below a Passion Flower tree and hung her head deep in thought, after a little while she turned to him and said, "If an ugly girl tells you her name, it must be because your ancestors have done bad deeds for eighteen generations and the bad karma has passed down onto you."

Yang Guo went over to her and laughed, "Of all the things to be born with, you were born with the love of saying negative things. My ancestors for the last eighteen generations have done many good deeds; some of the good karma should be reaped by me." His words were again praising her beauty.

Her face went slightly red and quietly said, "I'll tell you but you cannot tell another and I forbid you to call my name in front of others."

Yang Guo stuck out his tongue and said, "Oh sweet beauty, aren't I afraid of not having any descendants?"

The girl showed another smile and said, "My father's surname is Gongsun…" She still did not want to reveal her name and wanted to go around in circles.

Yang Guo interrupted, "But what is Miss's name?"

The girl smiled and said, "My father gave his only daughter the name Lu' E."

Yang Guo praised her, "The name is as beautiful as the owner."

After Gongsun Lu'E told Yang Guo her name, she felt closer to him and said, "When father invites you to see him, you mustn't smile at me."

Yang Guo said, "What happens if I smile."

The girl sighed and said, "If father knows that I smiled at you and told you my name, I really don't know how father would punish me."

Yang Guo said, "I've never heard of such a strict father, not even allowing his daughter to smile at someone. He has a beautiful daughter, could it be that he doesn't love you?"

When Gongsun Lu'E heard these words her eyes went red and said, "My father used to love me very much but after my mother died when I was six, he treated me stricter and stricter. After he marries again, I wonder how he will treat me?" Two drops of tears rolled down her cheeks as she said this.

Yang Guo comforted her, "After your father marries he will be happy, he'll definitely treat you better then."

Gongsun Lu'E shook her head and said, "I rather he treats me even stricter than marry another wife again."

Yang Guo's parents died when he was young so he didn't know much about these types of feelings; he wanted to make her happy and said, "Your new mother's definitely not as half as beautiful as you."

Gongsun Lu'E quickly said, "You're wrong, my new mother is a true beauty. Because of her my father… my father… Yesterday we caught that old man named Zhou but my father was busy with organizing the wedding, otherwise he would never have allowed that Old Urchin to escape again."

Yang Guo was shocked and pleased, he asked, "That Old Urchin escaped again?"

Lu'E frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you hear me?"

The two spoke for a while and the sun gradually rose up in the sky. Lu'E suddenly realized something and said, "Quickly go back, don't let my fellow apprentices see us together talking, they'll tell my father."

Yang Guo pitied her situation and stretched out his left hand to hold her hand and patted her on the back with his right, consoling her.

Gongsun Lu'E's eyes showed that this touched her, she lowered her head and suddenly her face went red.

Yang Guo was afraid that his thoughts would lead to Xiao Longnu again and cause his finger to break out in a severe pain again, he quickly rushed back to the stone house that he was staying in.
