Chapter 335 - My Name Is Jiu Chi
The night slowly swept through the sky as the sunset glow seemed to be devoured.
Jiu Chi stood on the spot and looked at the girl"s face opposite him. He did not move, but his hands seemed to slowly clench.
"I searched for you for a long time…" Xing Jiuan walked over slowly. The underlings beside her wanted to stop her from going over, but Xing Jiuan did not stop.
The underling was worried and wanted to follow her.
"Get in the car," Xing Jiuan said calmly, seemingly without any emotions.
"Boss, I…"
He wanted to say, "Boss, I still have to protect you." However, he still left obediently with a glance from Xing Jiuan. He left very slowly and almost turned back three times with every step.
Xing Jiuan and Jiu Chi did not speak.
Even if the underling wanted to stay, he still walked further and further away. He got into the car and stared at the place, waiting to get out of the car at any time to help Xing Jiuan.
"Tell me," Xing Jiuan said. "If possible."
Jiu Chi clenched his fists. Xing Jiuan seemed to sense his panic.
"My name is Jiu Chi…" Unknowingly, his voice had become much hoa.r.s.e.
"I know." Xing Jiuan crossed her arms and leaned against the tree, looking down at the ground.
"My surname is Xing. My name is… Xing Jiuchi. It"s… the name you gave me."
Xing Jiuan looked at him in disbelief.
"You must have forgotten a long time ago." Jiu Chi smiled gently. However, that smile was sad and painful.
"You did forget some things. It"s not surprising that you forgot about me."
It was already autumn. The wind at night was very cold. Xing Jiuan was only wearing a thin jacket, but she couldn"t feel any coldness.
The wind was loud, but when it reached them, it was as if it had suddenly been cut off. They could not feel any wind at all.
Jiu Chi pursed his lips. His face and lips seemed to have turned even paler, and his red eyes suddenly became a little dark red.
"That fortune-teller thought of many ways because of his son…" He told Xing Jiuan slowly.
"Huo Chulan"s destiny is compatible with her son"s. If their lives are connected, his son can share his life with Huo Chulan."
"But this way, the two of them will not have a long lifespan. Moreover, Huo Chulan"s life is b.u.mpy and lonely. That person"s son is connected to Huo Chulan"s fate. He will not be able to live well for the rest of his life."
"So, he found someone more suitable…
"It"s me, right?" Xing Jiuan said softly.
"Yes." Jiu Chi paused. "You can"t bear the n.o.ble aura of the Huo family."
"There are still people who are loved by the heavens. They are born with spirits and bring joy, health, worry, and happiness to the people around them.
"A true fate swap is to exchange one person"s fate for another person"s. The person whose fate is swapped can only die."
"In my previous life, Huo Chulan changed her fate and obtained yours."
"Actually, it can"t be considered as Huo Chulan alone…"
"That fortune-teller calculated your ident.i.ty and used the excuse of exchanging fates to make the Huo family and the w.a.n.g family change their children. That was when the exchange of lives began."
"As long as Huo Chulan changes your destiny, she and that Mage"s child will live to a hundred years old. They will be rich and have no worries in their lives. Everything will go according to their wishes."
"Huo Chulan knew about it since she was three years old.. When she was six, she was taken away by that Mage for the first time."
