Chapter 70
At the end of the summer in 245 of the Western Sena Continent, in the sultry afternoon, the arrival of the elves broke Bai Muya's peaceful life.

"Old man, do you have a daughter?" Zhong Xu sat on the sofa at Bai Muya's house, looking at the elder with contemptuous eyes.Behind him, stood a group of elves respectfully.

"Yes, this is the little girl. I don't know why the elves came to visit?"

"Our elves have always disliked dealing with people, and we have never been willing to marry humans. But now, I hope that I can become an elf who breaks this deadlock. If you and I marry, betroth your daughter to our elves, and when necessary Help me now, within half a year, you will be the leader of this human world. Of course, I will not treat her badly, my son is also one of the most favored sons of the elves."

"That's for me to think about."

"What's there to consider? It's just a matter of your words."

"My daughter is a lifelong event, how can she be so casual."

Seeing the great elder with a cold face and not letting go, Zhong Xu stood up impatiently, and said threateningly: "Old man, I am flattering you. If you want to live, you'd better agree. If you don't know the truth, then Today I want to kill you, just like crushing an ant."

"The elves and humans have never interfered with each other, not to mention the ability of the city lord, what kind of things can't be done, I'm afraid I can't help you."

"I don't think so. After all, the soldier talisman that mobilizes the human army is in your hands, isn't it?"

Seeing the elder's silence, Bai Muya thought that his father would not agree to such an outrageous thing.But he didn't expect that his father would actually nod his head and agree to such a thing in about a cup of tea.

"Very good." Zhong Xu nodded, got up satisfied, and prepared to go back.

"Wait, I promise you yes, and I have conditions."

Hearing this sentence, Zhong Xu laughed presumptuously: "Old man, what do you really think of yourself? Dare to negotiate terms with me?"

"If you are not sincerely cooperating, then please let it go, my humble life is worthless."

Zhong Xu laughed, looked at him with interest and asked, "Okay, let's talk about it."

"I can deploy troops, but no matter what time, I must save my daughter's life."

"Father." Bai Muya tugged at his sleeve, but the Great Elder didn't intend to let go.

Seeing Zhong Xu wave her hands indifferently, she agreed, "It's natural, after all, she will be my daughter-in-law from now on."

Looking at the elves with satisfied smiles, Bai Muya slumped on the sofa.She knew that once her father let go, there would be no room for redemption.

It was a bit windy that night, Bai Muya stood on the balcony blowing the wind absentmindedly.At this moment, paper airplanes flew in from outside, and Bai Muya knew that it was Li Zijin who came to look for her.

"It's time to say goodbye to him."

Putting on her coat hastily, Bai Muya ran outside, seeing Li Zijin who was waiting for her boringly kicking stones, the words that came to her mouth were swallowed again.

"How did you come?"

"I wanted to talk to you, so I came."

With a sullen face, Bai Muya took a deep breath, turned around and said, "There's nothing to say. In the future, don't come to me again."

She was about to leave after she finished speaking, but Li Zijin grabbed her arm behind her.But she still kept her back to him. She knew that once she looked directly at this face, many words would be unspeakable.

"Why? When did I make you unhappy? Or did I do something wrong?" Li Zijin kept asking.

"I hate people who pester me. I'm bored enough, okay?"

After Bai Muya finished speaking, she shook off Li Zijin's hand and walked forward quickly.However, this time, Li Zijin did not catch up to her and kept asking her why as before.Li Zijin behind him stood silently with his head down, without saying a word.

The evening wind was still blowing softly, Bai Muya ran back to the room and closed the door, hearing her own violent heartbeat.A distance of tens of meters downstairs from the balcony, she watched the little figure gradually disappear from her sight, feeling indescribably disappointed in her heart.

"It's good to go. You should go back to your world, and I have my mission to complete."

Even though she said so and kept comforting herself, she still suffered from insomnia that night.

Standing up and walking to the balcony, along with the wind, cherry blossom petals flew in.Bai Muya reached out to catch it, and the small petals lay quietly in her palm.In Roden City in early May, the last cherry blossoms finally withered.

If it is possible, how much she wants to escape now, she also wants to find her dream, to see different scenery, to wander, to enjoy her own life.But her father's life was in her hands, and she couldn't run away.

"If there is an afterlife, I also want to be an ordinary person, born in an ordinary family, and fall in love with the destined person when I am in my prime."

From that day on, Li Zijin seemed to be a different person, quiet and composed.If it wasn't for him deliberately avoiding Bai Muya, she almost thought that everything that happened in the past never happened at all, it was just her fantasy.

As a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, who has never been in love in ignorance.Bai Muya endured the pressure of life alone, and suffered from insomnia all night long.But life still pushes her to keep moving forward, no matter how sad she is, she still won't stop for her.

In June when evening primroses were in full bloom, Bai Muya graduated smoothly.Unlike others, no one missed her, and no one said reluctant words to her. It seemed that the sadness of parting never haunted her.

When she got home, the postman was standing in her living room, waiting for her to come back.

"Is it Miss Bai Muya?"

"Yes."

"Here is one of your packages, sent by an anonymous person, please sign for it."

Bai Muya took the package curiously, and opened it without thinking too much.Inside the package was a pile of sundries, each of which she was very familiar with.After the top paper airplane was taken apart, the words written on the letter inside made her eyes blush instantly.

"Happy graduation. The time spent with you is my best time. I am very happy to meet you. Although I can't be the one who will accompany you for the rest of my life, I hope you can meet your own happiness."

The letter was not signed, but Bai Muya knew the owner of this box very well.She hastily closed the lid, even so, after the postman left, her father's voice still sounded behind her.

"Mu Ya, you should know that the wedding with the elf is about to take place. Don't make any troubles."

Bai Muya quickly wiped away the tears she shed, and replied with a forced composure, and went upstairs with the box in her arms.

That box of things was locked in the depths by Bai Muya, just like her heart, the heart that had just soaked into the sun, will also be locked when the summer of this year is over.

After all, she is just an ordinary person, how can she escape the shackles of fate.However, at the end of the summer when all thoughts were hopeless, she never thought that such a magical night would really be encountered by her.

"If you can, please help me."
