When Lu Qingyun had returned to his abode, it was already quite late.
And even Lie Xingyuan had returned to the abode.
He was almost on the brink of total collapsed as he had been running at full speed for half a day.
And when he saw Lie Xingyuan, he immediately asked. "Keqin, is she back?"
Lie Xingyuan gasped when she saw him in such a wretched state, "Senior brother, are you alright?"
Lu Qingyun nodded wearily as he gave a faint smile, "Xingyuan, don't worry about me. Keqin, is she back yet?"
Lie Xingyuan nodded, "She is in the practice chamber. But Sister Keqin does not look alright to me. She is a little strange."
Lu Qingyun was startled, "Let me have a look…"
With that he was making his way to the practice chamber.
When he had reached the practice chamber, he could hear a sorrowful tune from the chamber practice. He immediately halted his steps and quietly approached the entrance of the practice chamber.
He could see Qin Keqin's back from the corner of the entrance but he did not stepped in as he was intrigued by the sorrowful tune that she was humming.
And also because there were dripping sounds that were hitting the ground.
Lu Qingyun was startled, "Keqin is crying?"
Every drip of her tear was like a sharp needle into his heart…
And the sorrowful tune that she was humming was extremely melancholy…
*Do you know that when you had left me…*
*You have left behind a void that is in my heart…*
*At that time when you had left me forever…*
*My heart has been in solitary ever since…*
*Ever since that my heart had always been sorrowful…*
*My melancholy heart bears the loneliness for your return…*
Qin Keqin was muttering almost incoherently, "Dongfang…Jun…I…miss…you…"
And she was repeating her melancholy tunes to herself.
Lu Qingyun was stunned. It was only now that he knew that there was another man in her heart and the name of that man was Dongfang Jun.
He was heartbroken and was trembling.
The melancholy tune of her humming repeated in his heart and was like millions of piercing needles that bled his soul into tiny fragments.
*Do you know that when you had left me…*
*You have left behind a void that is in my heart…*
(When this man had left her, she was terribly heartbroken...)
*At that time when you had left me forever…*
*My heart has been in solitary ever since…*
(Her heart had been pinning for this man ever since he had left…..)
*Ever since that my heart had always been sorrowful…*
*My melancholy heart bears the loneliness for your return…*
(She had been pinning for his return ever since...)
These were his thoughts as he listened with great grief in his heart.
Quietly, he turned around and ran away, as quickly as he could.
Qin Keqin was startled by the sudden sound of the footsteps. As her mood was down, she was not paying any attention to her surroundings and hence she did not notice that Lu Qingyun had quietly come to the practice chamber.
"Yun'Er, is that you?"
Her eyes were red from her tears as she looked up at the entrance of the practice chamber.
But Lu Qingyun could not hear her because he had run out to the nearby mountain vicinity. He had no idea how long he had been running.
Eventually he had run until he had no more strength and had collapsed on the ground. He was sobbing and clawing on the ground, "Keqin, why is that I am not the man that is your heart…am I not deserving for you…"
