Chapter 1156 - 1156 1142 Unforgettable

Chapter 1156: Chapter 1142: Unforgettable Chapter 1156: Chapter 1142: Unforgettable Ouyang Yue looked at him unconvinced and knew that his words implied the idea was his alone and not discussed with them. She said, “If you have such a good idea, why keep it hidden? That’s not very forthcoming.”

Ye Chen quickly replied, “I’m not hiding it. I did have an idea, but I wasn’t sure if it was feasible. My plan was to discuss it with Nangong Yao the next day. I thought Qiandu Xiang wouldn’t launch a second attack so soon, so waiting a bit longer wouldn’t be a problem.”

That guy, however, didn’t know how anxious he was feeling. He said, “You may have come up with a method, but you haven’t figured out how to root out the traitor when the time comes.”

“This matter requires a gradual approach. If you insist on rooting out the traitor without causing harm, it does require some serious thought. It’s not impossible, but for now, it’s not necessary.”

Ouyang Yue looked over and asked, “Do you have a way to root out the traitor?”

He really couldn’t tell this girl. If he continued talking with her, he would forget about getting any sleep tonight. Ye Chen hurriedly said, “I’ve given you the idea, whether it works is up to you now. If it goes well, you could well take down Qiandu Xiang yourself, without needing to go to Sacred Spirit Island to seek revenge.” He flashed by.

Ouyang Yue still admired him for coming up with such a plan so quickly. How could she not? Even with a month’s time, she couldn’t have come up with it. While she was focused on catching the traitor, he managed to turn the tables with his ingenious plan. This guy was truly a genius.

“I’m telling you, you should be careful,” Ye Chen called out.

“Careful of what?”

“You don’t need to be careful? With the traitor on board, who can guarantee they won’t come after you? You would be their prime target. Isn’t that reason enough to be cautious?” Ye Chen said, glancing at Ouyang Yue, and added, “If you don’t mind, you can move to my room. I can protect you, and you definitely won’t get caught.”

This guy was getting worse. Why hadn’t she realized it at the beginning? She said, “Nangong Yan told me you were faithful, but I see that’s all just for show.”

“Of course, it’s all just for show. She’s different from you.”

“What’s different about me?” It would be a while before she could return to her room.

“She’s innocent, hasn’t experienced much, takes matters of the heart seriously, and can’t handle being hurt. But you’re an old hand at love, with a foundation in relationships, able to let go when necessary—meaning you won’t be driven to desperation so easily.” With a creak, he opened the door to his room.

Being labeled an old hand at love wasn’t easy to take. Ouyang Yue slapped him on the arm and retorted, “You’re the old hand at love.” What she probably meant was she had her experience with Si Nanyu and could handle things without becoming too attached.

“Good night. If you can’t stand being alone, come find me. I’ll be waiting. The door to my room is unlocked; just push to enter.”

This guy was pretty direct. He could hardly believe it. It seemed that those affiliated with the Black Demonic Spirit and the Red Demonic Spirit were all extraordinary.

Ouyang Yue called out, “I’d say you should watch out for being caught yourself. You’re still wearing the Wolf King’s Ring.”

“I’d damn well be glad if someone stole my Wolf King’s Ring, to take my curse along with it.” He said this, but in truth he was unwilling to let someone take the ring and use it for evil.

Ouyang Yue continued walking, returning to her room. It was now the middle of the night and she was a bit worried. If someone really did come to capture her, what would she do? It was better to lock the door tightly. Even though there were patrols in the corridors, who could assure that the traitor wouldn’t take a desperate leap?

She let out a sigh of relief, thinking that they could execute the plan the next day. If they could lure Qiandu Xiang to Freedom Island and deal with him there, she would feel much more at ease.

Ye Chen returned to his room and all was silent. Li Mo had gone with Nangong Yan and others; Ye Chen couldn’t expose him to danger. The ship was just too dangerous. If he had a choice, he wouldn’t have stayed. It was out of an unwillingness to let go that he had chosen to do this.

The waves slapped against the ship’s side. In the past, when he was troubled, he could have a chat with the Red Demonic Spirit. Now that was impossible since the Red Demonic Spirit had its own life. In the future, no matter what happened, he’d have to shoulder it himself.

After two months, Ye Chen made another tough decision, determined to go back to find someone, thinking it would all go smoothly. But nobody expected such a turn of events, ruining everything.

His mind was filled with thoughts of that girl. Surely she wouldn’t hate him. There was nothing more to blame. What would happen in the future was uncertain. Where he would die, nobody knew. Whether there truly was a chance to destroy the ring, he didn’t know. At any moment, it could act up again. If he loved her, he shouldn’t bring such danger upon her.

The moonlight fell on his face, bringing back memories of the past. How unforgettable those times were when they quarreled and teased one another—it all seemed to leap forward at once.

Guo Yuyun was sleepless again, staring at the half moon and feeling somewhat chilled.

She was scared. The image of that monkey was becoming more blurry every day. From dreaming about it every night to gradually forgetting, it was tough to bear. However, the scolding she received from her mother earlier was justified. If Ye Chen had died, what could she do? Clinging on in desperation was useless.

She wanted to cry, but who would know how reluctant she was, why did she have to go through this?

What to do in the future, this could only bring displeasure to everyone.

Her mother, Xia Yue, had been setting her up with dates recently, which she particularly despised, so she had an argument with her mother that evening, but she was unable to refute what her mother said afterward.

Her mother said, “If Ye Chen were here, you could do whatever you want, I couldn’t do anything about it, but Ye Chen is dead, he’ll never come back. You can’t live in a dead person’s world.”

Although those words were harsh, piercing her heart like a knife, they were also the truth. She still had to live, to start again, otherwise no one would be happy. She felt sad, why did that monkey have to be so heartless, torturing her like this? If it were up to her, she’d rather be the one who died, not him, but now it was useless to say anything.

Her mother was getting old, her father had passed away, and her sister was in such a state, harboring unsettled emotions, wondering whether to get back together with Su Zhanze.

That’s why her mother was desperately trying to set her up; it was her mother’s pressure, not having a single source of relief. Did she really have to trouble her mother like this?

She couldn’t go on like this, just as the monkey said, in this lifetime, you can’t always do as you please, you need to consider the people around you. Besides, Ye Chen was gone, in heaven, where he had no connection with her.

She had to live her life well.

However, none of the prospects her mother introduced were appealing, none caught her eye. She reckoned it would be an endless bombardment until she capitulated. She could hardly stand it, if this continued, she would become the butt of the jokes throughout Demon Palace City.

Suddenly, she remembered someone, someone she was on the verge of forgetting—Song Xizhi from the Nine Leaves Sect. He had left about a month ago.

She had managed to deceive him and send him away. She didn’t know how he was doing lately. He had said they should keep in touch, but she hadn’t been faithful to that idea, leaving it all to He Xibai while pretending to be oblivious.

It seemed that a few days ago, several pots of orchids were delivered. However, she was in the middle of an argument with her mother at the time and was in no mood to appreciate them.

Unbelievably, so much time had passed without her noticing; she wondered if he had forgotten her by now. If not, maybe it would be a good idea to invite him over to act as her shield for a while, otherwise, her mother would set her up with a new date every day.

She felt like she was being sold off, and she absolutely couldn’t let it continue. If it did, she would go mad.

Morning.

He Xibai had prepared her lots of delicious food.

She ate as usual.

Knowing that Yun’er had argued with her mother the night before, He Xibai asked with a smile, “Are you planning to give your mother the cold shoulder like this indefinitely?”

Guo Yuyun, without a clue, asked, “What do you think I should do?”

He Xibai knew Xia Yue’s personality too well; Guo Yuqing had been pressured into marrying Su Zhanze in the same way, saying, “You will compromise eventually; it’s inescapable.”

“Are you so sure I will compromise?”

“If Ye Chen were alive, your refusal would be untouchable, but Ye Chen is gone for over three months now. You can’t be with him anymore, your stubbornness is futile because it’s unrealistic. You will ultimately obey—I think it’s better you do, otherwise, I don’t know what your mother will come up with to deal with you.”

Guo Yuyun scoffed coldly; her temperament was very much like her mother’s, equally stubborn, coming from the same stock.

“It seems you still want to continue this struggle. Let’s see who wins and who loses.”

Hearing this, Guo Yuyun felt deflated and suddenly asked, “By the way, are you still in correspondence with Song Xizhi for me?”

“Ah, that’s rare. I thought you had forgotten about him. I didn’t know what to say to him.” He Xibai was genuinely surprised. Since agreeing to write on her behalf, Guo Yuyun seemed to have forgotten about it, as if it had nothing to do with her.

He Xibai had always wanted to be clear with Song Xizhi, to tell him he wasn’t corresponding with Guo Yuyun, but feared hurting him. The young man was truly infatuated, diligently sending letters, sharing interesting things happening to him, even asking if he could visit her. She felt too embarrassed to refuse and kept putting it off.
