Her eyes carried pride and longing.
Fear was one thing, but liking someone was another.
"So he was such an amazing person." Liu Qingluo raised her head, the setting sun casting light on her face, reflecting a tear mole.
She lowered her head and murmured, "So... Young Master Xu is indeed an outstanding person."
"Does it matter?" Gu Qiancheng blinked confusedly, then earnestly said, "But, Sister has Immortal Talent, she must be a great person too. In the future... maybe even surpass Senior Sister."
Liu Qingluo didn't think about such things; she wasn't one to aim too high.
But...
If I become better and more useful, then the status of the one I care about should rise with me, gaining admiration from others.
"When can I start cultivation?" Liu Qingluo asked earnestly.
"I don't know, it depends on what the Senior Sisters decide. It's probably going to be a few days."
"Alright."

"You're back?"
