“I can’t have said things like that!”
Jiang Hongyan looked at Xu Que and gently shook her head. She was always calm, always!
Xu Que was already used to her character and smiled at her. “Anyway, you have to know that I will never hurt you! I did hit you with a long black stick, but I didn’t do it to hurt you!”
Previously, when he successfully killed a cultivator from the Heaven Horn Ox Tribe who was in the Form Synthesis Stage, he received a Big Mystery Bag from the System. Earlier, while he was speaking with Jiang Hongyan with an extremely melancholy tone, he activated his Lucky Aura and opened his Big Mystery Bag.
Inside, he only found two objects: a Red Rope of Marriage and a long black stick.
He had already used the Red Rope of Marriage once, and he was very excited about the long black stick. The long black stick would not hurt anyone, but, once someone was hit by it, they would faint.
Some cultivators would not want to lower themselves to use such an object, but, for Xu Que, it was quite a treasure.
“Yes, indeed, I don’t feel any pain! How did you manage to do that?” Jiang Hongyan asked curiously. She knew clearly her own strength and was sure that Xu Que could not knock her out so easily. But she had fainted and, strangely, she did not feel any pain at all.
“When you recall everything that happened between us, I will tell you!” Xu Que smiled.
“It’s a deal!” Jiang Hongyan said smiling.
Xu Que thought she would desperately want to know the answer, but, to his surprise, Jiang Hongyan was not that curious.
Xu Que then hurriedly said, “Or you can kiss me, hug me, and hold me high like you did in the past. I will tell you then!”
“No!” Jiang Hongyan refused, and looked at Xu Que seriously, “I think most of what you have said is false!”
“What?!” Xu Que was shocked. “You just said you forgot everything. How do you know I was lying earlier?!”
“I don’t know!” Jiang Hongyan said. “When you said you are my husband, I know you lied. But when you talked about where we met for the first time and the things that happened after, it all seemed true!”
“You are…brilliant!” Xu Que was a bit embarrassed.
I thought I could cheat her for one time after she lost all her memory. Unlike those idiots on TV, who can easily be cheated, she proved me wrong. I guess she is the only person in the world who can’t be cheated, even when she has lost all her memories.
“You are taking me somewhere to help me to recollect my memories, right?” Jiang Hongyan asked.
“Yes! Believe me, as soon as you manage to do so, you will never want to leave me again!” Xu Que said.
“Why?!”
“Because we love each other so much!”
“…”
Jiang Hongyan was speechless and kept silent.
During the next few days, Jiang Hongyan sat in the bare land Xu Que had taken her to and began to cultivate. Obviously, she was also trying everything she could to recollect all her memories.
But Xu Que was terribly upset. After a few years, he had finally found Jiang Hongyan again, and she went straight to cultivating before they had even talked much. He knew that she did so because she had lost all her memories, but, in front of such a beauty, he could not stop himself from flirting with her.
“Hongyan!”
“Little Hong Hong!”
“Little Yan Yan!”
“You are so beautiful! My god, there are no wrinkles around your eyes!”
“Please, talk with me. Sitting here all day long is such a bore. Maybe you would prefer to dance with me?! You know, I am very good at dancing! People all call me the king of the square dance: Nichols Xu Que!”
Xu Que kept nagging and nagging at her.
But Jiang Hongyan was not disturbed at all. She just sat there quietly and continued with her cultivation.
Back in the Soul Pagoda, at the first time they met, Jiang Hongyan thought Xu Que was a monster that she needed to get out of her mind. Until Xu Que took a piece of stinky tofu and stuffed it into her mouth, and then she realized that he really existed.
Xu Que thought of this and he came up with an idea. “If I stuff a piece of stinky tofu into her mouth, she won’t be cross with me, right? Well, I hope not!”
But actually he did not do so. Because previously Jiang Hongyan had reached a critical moment of her cultivation where she could not move at all. That was the only reason why she did not manage to stop Xu Que from stuffing a piece of stinky tofu into her mouth.
Now she has not been restricted and she did not remember who I am. What if she runs away after I stuff a piece of stinky tofu into her mouth?
“How boring!” Xu Que sat down not far away from Jiang Hongyan and sighed. Then he summoned his System to see if he could find anything interesting there.
“Wow!” He stared at the Red Rope of Marriage.
He once used it when he was with the Zixia Fairy, but since she was still cultivating, he did not know the actual effect of it.
Although Hongyan said she would recollect her memory soon, what if she fails to do so? Even if she does, we are not that close in fact. If we can finally be together or not, I am not sure!
“Anyway, I should have a try!!” Xu Que hesitated for a while and made up his mind. “Tie her to me!” Xu Que carefully got up and gently walked toward Jiang Hongyan.
However, when he stood in front of Jiang Hongyan, she suddenly opened her eyes. “What are you going to do?” Jiang Hongyan looked straight at Xu Que.
Xu Que was stunned and hurriedly forced out a smile. “Nothing! Nothing! I want to dance in front of you to make you happy. Do you see the little red thread? It goes well with my dancing!”
Jiang Hongyan calmly looked at him and said, “Dance then!”
She really wants me to dance?!
Xu Que was amazed and stood still for a while.
Then he held the red thread high up in the sky and began to move from side to side, singing an Indian song.
