It was late at night, the wind was cold, and there was no candlelight in the Water Moon Dock. The surrounding lake reflected the half moon and stars in the sky. Between the ripples, there was a bright light that illuminated the fluttering curtains of the Water Moon Dock.
Jing Rushui tasted the high-quality, mellow and sweet Eyebrow Moon Needle. Her dark and charming eyes were still flashing with a calculative light, and the smile on her lips was still slightly raised, as if it was a habit, but only an ornament.
"Yo, you're so free. You're drinking tea here alone?”
Yan Chuiying lifted the fluttering autumn fragrant curtains, and his tall figure quickly floated into the four-sided pavilion and sat down in front of him.
"You're back early today." Jing Rushui put down the white jade cup in his hand and clapped his hands. In the corridor behind him, a tall and low shadow flashed out. One of them respectfully handed over a white jade cup, and the other swiftly poured tea. Then, they flashed away.
"Sigh, it's just the beginning of January, and the whole of Jinling is bustling with activity. The group of literati and dignitaries who are unwilling to be left out are busy visiting and pretending to be elegant.”Yan Chuiying took a sip of warm tea and smiled in satisfaction. He continued,"On the other hand, Jian Yue and Lou Chen are extremely busy. One is escorting the children of the opera garden to perform everywhere every day, and the other is busy making clothes. Look at you, you seem to be quite free recently.”
"Who said I'm free?" Mirror Like Water smiled seductively.
"Pfft! As the most popular person in the imperial court, not only did you reject the winter solstice ceremony, but you also didn't go to court to observe the emperor's astrology. Aren't you afraid that you'll make Dragon Heart unhappy one day and even our brothers will have to fall together with you?”Yan Chuiying raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
"You, the top scholar, have already made the emperor unhappy many years ago, let alone now?”Jing Rushui smiled calmly. "It's fine as long as you don't implicate me. You're still worried that I'll implicate you?”
"Aiya, it was just a joke. Why are you speaking so seriously like this brother?”Yan Chuiying spat at him and then moved closer to him mysteriously. "When I returned to the residence just now, there was a long line of carriages waiting to visit you, so I went around to the back door and came in. However, I heard a woman cursing near the Mirror Pattern Tower.”
"Oh?" Jing Rushui rested her face on her palm and tapped the corner of her eyes with her slender fingers.
It seemed that she must be very angry. Moreover, she needed some time to change her filthy language.
"Eh, don't you find it strange at all?”Yan Chuiying was a little surprised by his calm reaction. "This Mirror and Flower House is not a place that any random person can enter. Yet, you didn't seem to mind the cursing of a woman coming from your house. Could it be that…you brought her back?”
No way, her taste was too bad…
"What kind of woman do you think is worthy of me, and what kind of woman can make my heart flutter?”Although she was like a wild and unruly leopard, looking up and raising her hands was so unbridled and unruly, not at all like the docile women nowadays, it unexpectedly moved his heart.
Since she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him, and since she wanted to accept his fate, she had to be a little different. She had to be as strong and tenacious as her.
However, her claws still needed to be trimmed.
" But..." The curses he heard were really unbearable, even more vulgar than a country bumpkin. How could he choose such an extraordinary woman?
He had always been accompanied by women, but he had never been moved by one before. How could this be…
"She's the woman I'm destined to be with. She's the only one.”Once he missed it, it would never happen again.
"Just because she's the destined woman?”So he had to endure the humiliation and accept it? "Could it be that your divination was wrong this time?”Although she had never seen him make a wrong prediction, there would always be a first time, right?
"Do you think I would make a wrong divination?" Jing Rushui could not help but laugh.
He really wanted to know when his innate talent would become abnormal, but so far, it had been very normal.
Fate? What was fate?
He followed his fate and left the palace, which was full of disputes. He followed his fate and found a woman who could accompany him for the rest of his life. However, was this fate's arrangement or what he hoped for?
Although there was a destiny in the unseen world, it was better to say that it was because of his desire. This could be said to be a fate that extended from his wish!
" I think you still want to…" Yan Chuiying suddenly stopped and pricked up his ears to listen. " I think I heard something..." After all, the Mirror Flower House was usually as quiet as a dead city. It was natural for him to be shocked when someone suddenly cursed.
Moreover, there was a formation inside. How could that woman walk here?
"Is that so?" Jing Rushui narrowed her charming eyes and suddenly stood up. Facing the fluttering curtains, her smile became even wider. Even her eyes, which had never been smiling, were filled with a deep smile.
"Listen." Yan Chuiying sighed and walked to his side.
As the wind blew, it really brought Hua Xiren's angry curses…
"Mirror Like Water! You f * cking bastard, come out if you have the ability! Bastard! Bastard! Get the hell out here!" Hua Xiren walked along the dark path under the dim light. She panted and shouted as if they had an irreconcilable hatred for each other.
Damn it, what the hell is this place?
She walked from the sun hanging high in the sky to the sun setting in the west, and then to the point where she could not even see her fingers. She was thirsty, hungry, and tired, but she could not find the way she had come in. Damn it, the Water Moon Dock in the middle was clearly within reach. Why couldn't she reach it after walking for several hours?
Bastard, it would be best if he didn't let her find him. It would be best if he let her starve to death on this wilderness path. Otherwise, she would beat him up every time she saw him.
Don't say that she was too violent, because she could tolerate it!
"Damn it, at least give me something to eat!”She was so hungry that she did not have the strength to walk.
When she was in the flower shop, she ate at least five meals a day. She ate as much as she wanted, but since last night, she had not swallowed anything. It had been a full 24 hours…
Damn Jing Rushui! He was simply trying to starve her to death!
What fate? What love? There was something wrong with his brain. Who would talk about such a topic with someone on their first meeting? He was a brainless idiot!
"Are you hungry?"
Like a ghost, Jing Rushui suddenly floated in front of Hua Xiren, scaring her into a cold sweat.
"You, you're a ghost!" Wow, he didn't even make a sound when he walked.
"I told you, as long as you call my name, I will appear.”Jing Rushui smiled happily and held her hand without any explanation. She was so domineering yet gentle.
At first, Hua Xiren was stunned and let him lead her. Then, she glared at his long, white body and gritted her teeth. "You, don't touch me casually, you disgusting bastard!”
Damn it, he actually dared to put her under house arrest! If she had known that she would encounter such a thing after leaving the Jia residence, she would have locked herself up in the flower shop. She would rather hide in the flower shop for the rest of her life than come to such a desolate wilderness. He did not even provide her with three meals... sob sob, he deliberately starved her to death!
"Extremely disgusted?" Jing Rushui suddenly turned around and brought her smiling face so close that their lips were almost touching. "Do you really hate me?"
Hua Xiren's eyes widened. She did not expect him to turn around so suddenly and even get so close to her...
To be honest, this was the first time she felt that a man could be so beautiful. His deep eyes seemed to have an intoxicating charm. Once they met, she could not look away. At least she really couldn't look away now.
"I don't think you'd be disgusted.”He laughed wildly.
Did his heart give birth to fate, or did fate control his heart? Up until now, he knew for sure that it was because he fell in love with her, and he had only known the outcome of fate in advance. She would definitely stay by his side, but she still needed some time.
" You…" For some reason, under the gaze of that pair of eyes, she felt that she could not move her body at all.
Jing Rushui smiled seductively again and held her hand as they walked forward.
"Let's go. You must be starving. I've already sent someone to prepare dinner.”His hand held hers tightly, so strong yet gentle.
" You…" Damn it, she was probably starving. Otherwise, why couldn't she retort?
He was the one who had placed her under house arrest, and he was the one who did not provide her with food. Why was he putting on a benevolent face in front of her now and starting to give alms to her?
" I've been staying in the Water Moon Dock, thinking about how to make use of the perfect terrain and airflow of the Water Moon Dock, and when the full moon is full of Yin Qi, I'll set up an altar to cut open the border of time and space…" He said it lightly, and very considerately led her up the stone bridge and onto the Water Moon Dock. "As for you, have you decided?"
Hua Xiren was stunned, not knowing if he was telling the truth.
Logically speaking, as a modern person from 600 years later, she should be able to become a god in the eyes of these ancient people. Why did she feel like a useless fool?
"You don't believe me?" Jing Rushui was not surprised by her reaction.
" It's not a matter of whether I believe it or not…" Similarly, if someone from the 27th century came to her and talked to her about everything about the 27th century, she would most likely think that the person was crazy. Why would he believe her and know that she came from the future?
"Because my eyes can see the past and the future.”Jing Rushui said calmly as if she had seen through her thoughts.
Don't ask him how he learned this ultimate skill. It was because he was familiar with the common sense of the world and saw through the past and the future. Perhaps it was because of this that he could not be moved by the power and interests of the world.
He knew very well that everything was just a flash of prosperity. Nothing was eternal, but he wanted to pursue a relationship. He wanted to obtain the love that he would never have in his life, but he wanted to have the most. Therefore, it was very difficult for her to escape from his side.
Unless he died.
"How do I know if what you said is true or not?”God, she was very fragile now. Please don't say such a touching lie again. She would really believe him with all her heart.
"Do you want to try again?" Jing Rushui said.
"Try what?"
Jing Rushui smiled devilishly, his handsome face full of schemes.
"Chuiying, just sit there and don't move." He turned around and said to Yan Chuiying.
Hua Xiren only realized that there was someone else in the Water Moon Dock, but she only took a quick glance. She was waiting for Jing Rushui's " try ". She really wanted to know what he wanted to " try ".
"Don't get too close to me, and don't move your feet. Just open your eyes and look.”
Jing Rushui ordered lightly. Suddenly, she began to mutter something and put her hands together on the roof. The fluttering curtains suddenly flew up to the pavilion. In an instant, the cold light of the half-moon was reflected on the surface of the lake, illuminating the entire Water Moon Dock like the sun.
He suddenly put down his hand, but he clenched his fist and hit the water surface. The water surface splashed a few feet high, as if a hole had been broken. At the end of the darkness, a few strange scenes suddenly appeared, and Hua Xiren, who was standing at the side, was dumbfounded.
Mom?
Oh my god, this broken water surface actually showed the scene of the 21st century, and her only family, her mother, was running back and forth in the airport...
"Yo, what's going on? Why is Rushui casting a spell?"
Two simultaneous voices suddenly rushed into the scene of the spell casting. The broken water surface suddenly closed up, and the water column splashed onto the surface of the lake. This instantaneous change was so fast that Hua Xiren did not have time to see everything clearly.
"You guys are back?" Yan Chuiying yawned elegantly and waved at Hua Jianyue and Si Louchen, who had just stepped into Water Moon Dock.
"What's going on? " She is…" Si Louchen pointed at Hua Xiren.
"A woman destined to be like water." He didn't really believe it!
"Her?"
"Since Rushui said so, I can only believe it, but…"
Before Yan Chuiying could finish his words, Hua Xiren's roar was like a flash flood,""You two bastards, couldn't you have set foot on the Water Moon Dock a little later? Are your eyes used for decoration? Can't you see that Jing Rushui is casting a spell? Can't you avoid others when they are casting a spell? You bastard!"
Damn it, even if Jing Rushui didn't say anything, she knew that the spell had stopped because they had forced their way into the scene.
Woo…I just saw Mom! Oh my god, the scene this time was even more vivid than yesterday. Moreover, the feeling was different from the touching feeling that appeared in her mind. How could they forcefully interrupt the scene that she missed?
Damn it, she's asking for compensation!
" You..." Hua Jianyue and Si Louchen could not believe how vulgar she was.
"What do you mean you? You have to compensate me. I don't care!”She was so angry. It was not easy for her to see Mirror Like Water perform magic, like Moses opening the Red Sea, but she was interrupted by them. She did not spit at them, which was considered good manners.
"Xiren, can't you be more careful with your words?”Jing Rushui held her hand gently, hoping that she would be influenced by him and change her lifestyle. Otherwise…
"What choice of words! I didn't create the words, and I didn't create the culture. If you think my words are ugly, then blame the bastard who created the words back then. After all, I'm just a person who inherited these words!”Hua Xiren didn't give face at all. She was still regretting the short moment just now. "If it weren't for them suddenly barging in, I might have returned to the 21st century by now.”
"Impossible, I said I want a full moon. Otherwise, with the current extreme Yin energy, it's impossible to cut open space and time.”Jing Rushui waved at her three dumbfounded friends, gesturing for them to take a seat. "What you saw just now was just a kind of transmission ripple.”
"Huh?" Hua Xiren suddenly had a feeling that she was an ancient person, while Jing Rushui was a modern person from the 21st century. It was so profound that she really could not understand it.
"Forget it. I'll explain it to you in the future, but you have to agree to my conditions first.”Jing Rushui did not forget to repeat her request.
"Condition?" That…" I love you, I love you, I love you so much!”
Anyway, as long as she could return to the modern world, it didn't matter how disgusting she said it. Anyway, it was just a pile of words. It had no meaning to her at all.
" You…" Jing Rushui laughed and pulled her to sit in front of the bluestone table. "I think you should have dinner first and then slowly think about my conditions. After all, what I want is not just a verbal agreement, but your heart.”
Who doesn't know how to love? What was important was her heart and her feelings?
" But..." Hua Xiren habitually lifted her feet on the chair and looked at him with a slight frown. However, she saw the person behind him staring at her in shock. She looked around and realized that everyone was dumbfounded by her except for Jing Rushui. "What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll dig your eyes out!”
Anyway, she was about to return to the 21st century, so she didn't need to pretend to be submissive in front of them. After all, that was too tiring and she didn't have the mood to do so.
"Oh right, I still want you to keep your mouth shut. If I hear you say something mean, then…"
" I know, I know…" She had no choice but to lower her head. As long as she could return to the twenty-first century, she would give up all her pride and dignity.
"Alright, let's eat!" Jing Rushui called out to her, and the three stone statues that had been weathered into fossils picked up a few dishes for her. "Eat slowly. I asked someone to prepare this for you just now. You can tell me which ones are suitable and which ones are not.”
" Yes, yes…" Hua Xiren was like a hungry ghost. She grabbed her bowl and chopsticks and crazily attacked the delicious food on the table.
How could she care about other people's gazes? She was starving to death, so she had to fill her stomach first. She had been starving for a long time, as if it had been a century. Therefore, no matter what was placed in front of her, she believed that she would not be picky.
However, she did not know if it was because she swallowed too quickly, but she actually felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach.
"What's wrong?" Jing Rushui watched her hug her belly worriedly.
" I'm not feeling well…" Damn it, this stomachache feels like…" Where's the toilet?”
If she could, she really didn't want to mention this word during dinner, but she really wanted to confirm something very important.
Jing Rushui raised her eyebrows and pointed at the gravel path behind her. "You'll see it if you walk back."
Hearing this, Hua Xiren immediately dashed forward. Although it was a little ungraceful, she really did her best…
She ran as fast as a hundred meters and rushed into the toilet in an instant. She began to unknot the damn knot on her underwear in an inelegant manner. She pulled it open and saw that it was as she had expected. It was really like that…Oh my god!#
