Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 419

"Do you believe in reincarnation?" Jiang Yao prodded.

"No," Lu Xingzhi answered bluntly. "Life ends with death."

Lu Xingzhi did not believe in anything of the sorts. There was nothing else other than life and death. A buried body would become dirt and leave nothing, not even a trail, behind.

Jiang Yao thought maybe Lu Xingzhi would pretend to agree with her statement, just because she asked. His straightforward reply caught her off guard, leaving her speechless.

"I told you I will never lie to you." Lu Xingzhi knew Jiang Yao was looking at him, and he knew that his answer was not to her expectation. Yet, this was his view, why did he have to lie?

After her initial shock, Jiang Yao laughed in relief.

That was right. This was Lu Xingzhi, who would never lie and tell stories just to make her happy. He said it himself that he was never good with words.

"It feels like a dream, and yet, it isn't. In this dream-like story, I lived to thirty years old, which ended abruptly. When I woke up, I was back to my younger self, the day you came to visit me during summer break. With the blink of an eye, I felt like I lived a life more than everyone else."

Jiang Yao raised her eyes and looked at Lu Xingzhi. She only noticed the slight twitching of his eye; his expression was as stoic as ever.
