Chu MuYun was so shocked that he couldn’t recover at all.
But at this moment, there was a burst of fluctuation in the air. Someone had come.
Before Chu MuYun turned his head, he heard a familiar voice. He was saying softly, “Ah-Yun…”
It was clearly an extremely beautiful voice but it was excessively colored by caution and sorrow so that it made you feel like as soon as you turned your head, you would see a weeping child.
Chu MuYun’s heart hammered violently and his body stiffened. Slowly, little by little, he still turned around.
Under a golden sunset, the man standing there wore purple clothes and the transparent tulle in the outer layer seemed to absorb golden light, shining with brilliance.
The beautiful clothes and long robes were not as exquisite as the man’s appearance which could make the entire sky at sunset pale.
He had a cinnabar mole on his forehead, star-like eyes and his thin lips were slightly pursed. The affection was as deep as the sea and it swept across the softest part of the heart.
Chu MuYun looked at him without blinking his eyes.
Shen ShuiYan stepped forward and hugged him into his arms with great force, however his movements were very light. This kind of contradiction perfectly reflected his mood at the moment.
He wanted to embed this person into his bones so that he would never be able to leave him. But he was also afraid that he would be injured or sad, so he could only carefully hold him at the tip of his heart and give him the warmest gentleness. So that even if Shen Yun fell over, he would only land and trample on Shen ShuiYan’s internal organs.
There really… wasn’t anything more ecstatic than the feeling of recovering something you had lost.
Chu MuYun let him hold him.
Shen ShuiYan had recovered his memory and he remembered everything now but this did not obliterate his obsession with Ah-Yun. On the contrary, it was infinitely aggravated.
Ah-Yun stayed with him for ten years.
In his long life, a short ten years would usually not be worth mentioning. But these ten years made the countless, endless years of his life in the past seem boring, dark and worthless. Compared to those ten years, the rest of his life had nothing worth being nostalgic about.
Without these ten years, he would never know that there was a person in this world whom he would want so much that he would learn how to let go.
Without these ten years, he will never understand that better than blindly plundering and possessing was this person’s dedication to him.
It was selfless, beautiful,and unparalleled.
If his life is a distant, endless void, then what Ah-Yun has done in the past ten years is to light up countless sparks in the dark void.
So… he easily occupied all his sights, all his senses and all his… obsessions.
He couldn’t bear to lose him, even thinking about it was unbearable.
Shen ShuiYan brought Chu MuYun back to WuQing Palace.
This palace surrounded by frost and fog was like a heavenly palace falling into the moral world. The immortal-like visage of clouds made your heart rise just by looking at it.
Chu MuYun behaved as though he was in a trance. The whole time he had been quiet and silent, and he hadn’t said a word.
Shen ShuiYan was completely immersed in the ecstasy of finding him. He was aware of his strangeness but was still deceiving himself and others dared not mention it.
From the outside, the WuQing Palace was out of reach and seemed like a fairyland, but after walking in, Chu MuYun’s sense of familiarity was so overwhelming that it made him freeze.
Straight white jade steps, a magnificent hall of red tiles and gold bricks. A familiar layout, a familiar style. The grass and trees along the road, the winding corridors leading to the inner garden with flowers in full bloom. This garden contained countless memories which only belonged to two people.
Behind the garden is HouShan Lake which was built on the hillside. The lake is blue and clear. In summer, the sun shimmered like a layer of golden sand, shining brightly. It was a beautiful scene. In autumn, the leaves were spotted, as if a pontoon sang in the evening, and it was natural and comfortable. In winter, the lake was covered with a thick layer of ice. It was no longer clear but the beauty was still there. The chill and coldness was filled with the sensation of peace and quiet.
For countless years, Chu MuYun clearly remembered that he and he stood together here in this place, in front of this beautiful HouShan Lake.
This palace, which was supposed to be in the distant human world, actually appeared in the demon world at this moment.
It appeared inside the WuQing Palace and felt completely untouched by human breath and resembled a fairyland.
Chu MuYun stared blankly. He walked forward step by step, his eyes wandering around. His expression was full of surprise and sorrow.
He deeply felt that every little tiny piece of this palace carried with it the affection he had given out. But what surprised him was: why did these memories, which should have belonged to him and Xie QianLan, appear here?
Why did it appear inside… this devil’s palace?
It took Shen ShuiYan four years to turn WuQing Palace into TianLin Palace, the place where he and Ah-Yun stayed together.
His memory is extraordinary so nothing here deviated from the original in the slightest.
He has been waiting all this time, waiting for Ah-Yun to come, waiting for him to take a look with his own eyes and see all his thoughts.
—All the affection contained in each flower, grass, brick and stone.
And now, he has finally come.
Chu MuYun couldn’t recover for a long time. He walked and looked tirelessly, but he dared not touch it from beginning to end.
Because everything in front of him was too illusory, too unreal.
This should be the scene in his memory, this should be unique to him and Xie QianLan, but now… it appeared here, a place that shouldn’t be here.
Love and hate were reversed.
Even after seeing those pictures, Chu MuYun was shocked but couldn’t believe it. After all, how could they be turned upside down? How could such a ridiculous thing happen?
Who the person he loved was, how could he not know?
All the things he and Xie QianLan had gone through together, how could he not distinguish it?
No one could question how deep and strong the relationship between them is.
How could he hate Xie QianLan? How could he hate someone whom he loved into his bones?
It’s ridiculous, it’s absolutely ridiculous!
As Chu MuYun looked, a wave of anger rose through his blood and finally gathered together, occupying his entire chest. He finally stopped and turned his head to look at Shen ShuiYan.
He didn’t say a word to him for such a long time, and finally called out his name at this time.
“Shen ShuiYan.”
Shen ShuiYan has been following him. Suddenly hearing his voice, his face was a little startled but soon…
The surprise in the gorgeous eyes was not concealed and his exquisite appearance was filled with infatuation. He didn’t cover up how much he missed him, thought of him, waited for him. Right now time felt frozen and when he heard that voice, he still had the beautiful feeling of being in a dream.
In the next instant, Chu MuYun dragged him down from heaven into hell: “How long are you going to play with me?”
Shen ShuiYan’s raised lips froze, he didn’t dare to move.
Chu MuYun stared at him and his eyes filled with regret and anger: “What do you want? What do you still want from me? My body? Do you want sex? Don’t you know how much I hate, how much you disgust me? You threatened me, coerced me and controlled me with those filthy things!”
“Shen ShuiYan, I would rather die than see you again!”
