“…”
Xu Que was stunned. Looking at Lin Yuxi who was standing at the door, his lips twitched slightly.
This…is so embarra.s.sing!
How heedless I am! I didn’t notice that Lin Yuxi had arrived!
Puff!
“Ha, ha, ha!” Sitting beside him, Cai couldn’t help but laugh wildly and even spit out the wine in his mouth.
“Why are you laughing at me? I didn’t expect you would set me up!” Xu Que stared at Cai, embarra.s.sed.
Cai covered his stomach with his hands and kept on laughing, “No, it has nothing to do with me! I…ha, ha, I’ve also just seen her now! I didn’t even have time to remind you. You said the words yourself! What could I do? I am also in despair! Ha, ha, ha!”
( Boxno vel. co m ) “Ahem, that’s enough! Stop laughing!” Xu Que patted Cai’s shoulder and turned to Lin Yuxi.
Lin Yuxi’s face had turned red. Although she had broken up with Xu Que a long time ago and thought she had forgotten him, when she saw him on the TV screen, she was attracted to him again. But she never mentioned this to others and also buried these feelings in her heart. Because now Xu Que and she were people from different worlds. They could never restart their relations.h.i.+p again!
Therefore, she had come here to say good-bye to Xu Que, as well as to the feeling which was deeply buried in her heart. She never expected they would meet in such an embarra.s.sing situation.
In those years, I could even enter her body. Now, I can’t even visit her WeChat Moments! This guy is as shameless as he was before!
“Hey, Miss Lin is here! Come in and sit down. Don’t be a stranger!” At this time, Xu Que’s face was filled with smile again. He greeted Lin Yuxi warmly and pretended nothing had happened just now. He was quite shameless. However, Lin Yuxi couldn’t be as shameless as he was. Her face was still red. She nodded her head and stepped in, taking her handbag.
Xu Que raised his gla.s.s and said decidedly, “Miss Lin, this gla.s.s of wine is for our lost youth and everything that happened before!” He did this to defuse the awkward situation and tell Lin Yuxi that he didn’t hold a grudge over the things that had happened before.
Lin Yuxi was stunned a bit. Then she nodded her head and picked up a gla.s.s of wine with a smile, “OK, for us!”
Clink! After clinking their gla.s.ses, they drank up the wine and smiled at each other.
“d.a.m.n! You don’t want to drink with me, right?” Cai also tried to defuse the awkward situation.
“Ah, ah! Cai, it seems you are going to get plastered tonight, right? Come on! Let’s have a good drink!” Xu Que picked up the wine bottle and filled his gla.s.s.
Cai waved his hand hurriedly, “No, no, no! I admit defeat! OK? The dinner hasn’t started yet. The dishes haven’t been served! I need to eat some food first!”
“OK! Ask them to serve food now. I guess Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, and w.a.n.g Jin will be here soon!” Xu Que said with a smile.
Then the three of them started to talk and laugh merrily. Most of the time, Cai was telling some interesting stories that happened during his film shooting. Also, he revealed some celebrity scandals.
Xu Que knew almost nothing about celebrities on Earth. However, Lin Yuxi was listening intently. She was shocked by these scandals.
“No way! I didn’t expect he could be a person like that! He never acts like that normally.” The scandal about a certain male celebrity shocked Lin Yuxi.
Cai said with a smile, “Alas! Entertainment circles are quite complicated. Almost all celebrities show up with masks. Therefore, don’t be surprised by their scandals. Anyway, n.o.body is perfect!”
“I don’t agree with you!” Xu Que raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “Actually, in entertainment, I only admire one person – Zhang Ye!”
Puff! Cai laughed immediately, “Face-slapping Zhang is exceptional! He is just like you!”
“c.r.a.p! Why did you say that? I am much coyer than Zhang Ye!” Xu Que said shamelessly.
Cai and Lin Yuxi said nothing but smiled.
In a short while, Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, and w.a.n.g Jin arrived.
Now six people were gathered in the room, which became more bustling. They ate and drank as they chatted. As they drank more and more wine, their conversation became more and more ardent.
At last, Zeng Darong mentioned the relations.h.i.+p between Xu Que and Lin Yuxi again. He said drunkenly, “I mean we really envied the two of you in our university days! So, just drink up this gla.s.s of wine!”
“Right! Ha, ha, Miss Lin, I still remember the scene where Xu Que expressed his love to you in front of your dormitory building. It was so funny!” Su Xiaoliang said with a drunken smile.
w.a.n.g Jin said excitedly, “Exactly! Ha, ha! Normally, people will place candles in a heart shape and send flowers when they express love. However, Xu Que didn’t want to follow this tradition. He rented several loudspeakers and placed them in a heart shape. Then, he started to shout through them!”
Cai was interested immediately. He asked curiously, “What did he shout?”
w.a.n.g Jin replied with a smile, “Ha, ha, he shouted ‘Lin Yuxi, come out, I like you! If you refuse to be my girlfriend, I will dance Public Square Dancing in front of your dormitory building every night!’”
Puff! Cai was amused immediately.
Xu Que shook his head with a faint smile. I really miss the days when I was frivolously young!
Tears welled up in Lin Yux’s eyes. When w.a.n.g Jin described that scene, Xu Que’s immature but handsome face showed up in her mind clearly as if it had just happened.
“What happened afterwards? Did they establish their relations.h.i.+p then?” Cai asked again at this time.
However, before Zeng Darong had time to say something, Lin Yuxi replied. She shook her head and said with a yearning smile, “No! Actually, I was totally annoyed by him. Normally, wooing should be romantic. This guy acted shamelessly and tried to make a fool of me. Therefore, I came out and said if he could dance the Public Square Dancing all night, I would agree to be his girlfriend!”
Cai turned to Xu Que and asked, “h.e.l.l, did you really do that?”
“No, as a handsome top student, I didn’t know how to dance the Public Square Dancing!” Xu Que couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Lin Yuxi grinned, “He was dumbfounded. Then, all the girls ran out of the dormitory building and asked him to dance. I didn’t expect he would be so shameless!”
“Oh? What shameless thing did he do?” Cai asked curiously.
“He said, ‘Lin Yuxi, I am so handsome! Are you really going to ask me to dance in front of so many people? Here, please go with me, and I’ll only dance for you!’”
After saying that, Lin Yuxi shook her head and said with a smile, “Everyone in the dormitory building started to boo him. And I refused him! He was punished by the university because he placed loudspeakers in front of the dormitory building. Then he spent one month learning the Public Square Dancing!”
Maybe she had drunk too much wine! Maybe she was really drunk! Maybe she couldn’t suppress the feelings in her mind anymore!
When she remembered this scene, she couldn’t control her tears anymore. She wept drunkenly, “After learning the dance, he came back with the loudspeakers. Then he danced for over one hour in front of my dormitory building. At last, he was caught by the university’s guards. And he even received disciplinary action from the university for that!”
After saying that, she couldn’t keep from crying. She said as she looked at Xu Que, “Xu Que, you idiot, do you know I was totally scared at that time! Many people said you were about to be expelled by the university! But I really liked you at that time. If you were expelled, what should I do….”
“After that, Xia Luoqing framed you for having affairs with other girls. I was so annoyed that I believed those false stories. Then I broke up with you on the phone! I know I was outrageous at that time for I didn’t give you a chance to explain!”
“When I started to regret it and tried to call you, I got the news that you had had a car accident!”
“Xu Que, I’m sorry….”
She wept and uttered all the words which had been hidden in her heart for so many years.
Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, w.a.n.g Jin, and Cai sobered up immediately. They looked at Xu Que speechlessly.
Xu Que, who was stunned, said, shaking his head, “Yuxi, you are plastered. I didn’t blame you for the things that happened in those years. You are not the mastermind of those things! Cai, ask the hotel to arrange a room, so that she could have a rest in it!”
“OK, OK, I’m on it!” Cai was stunned a bit. Then he came to himself and walked out of the room immediately.
After making eye contact, Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, and w.a.n.g Jin stood up and said, “We’ll go to the bathroom!”
The three of them left the room. Then only Xu Que and Lin Yuxi were left in the room.
Lin Yuxi said drunkenly, “I…I am not plastered! You didn’t blame me because…I no longer live in your heart. I am so regretful! I….”
“Yuxi!” Xu Que interrupted her abruptly, “What’s done is done! Just let it go! Actually, I also miss those good old days. Because we have regrets, so those days were good and should be cherished! But we can’t make up those regrets now!”
Xu Que sighed after saying that.
The s.p.a.ce-Breaking Spell could only take several persons away. Therefore, he couldn’t risk taking Lin Yuxi to the World of Cultivators. Since he couldn’t take her away, it was not necessary to influence her life in the future. As he said, what was done was done! Just let it go!
“Have a good rest! Tomorrow, please live happily ever after!” After saying that, Xu Que touched Lin Yuxi’s forehead gently. She looked at Xu Que drunkenly with her eyes full of tears. It seemed she had a lot to tell Xu Que. At last, she closed her eyes gradually and fell asleep quietly in Xu Que’s arms.
Xu Que took a deep breath and shook his head. Then he held Lin Yuxi in his arms and took her to the room arranged for her. He tucked her in bed. After that, he turned around and left.
That night, Xu Que said good-bye to Cai and the rest of his friends. He left them some elixirs to keep them from illnesses and elongate their life spans. He also left some elixirs for Lin Yuxi.
“Farewell, my friends!”
At last, Xu Que disappeared, leaving his friends with wistful eyes. They knew clearly that Xu Que would never come back in the future.
Even if he could come back, they would have grown old….
…
The next day, the sun rose, and the sunlight streaked into the room through the window. Lin Yuxi opened her eyes slowly and stared at the ceiling in a daze. After a while, she sat up abruptly and looked out of the window.
“At that time, you won my heart by taking the risk of being expelled by the university! I didn’t cherish you and pushed you away because of some ridiculous fake evidence!” Lin Yuxi murmured in a low voice with a strand of self-mockery on her face.
After that, her eyes became more and more determined. Then she said in a low voice, “Now…it is my turn to win you back at all costs. No matter how far you are away from me, I’ll find you! Even if I can’t find you, I’ll wait for you!”
…
At this time, Xu Que had arrived at the summit of Mount Kunlun.
He saw the sun come up and light up the dark horizon. He felt that the things that had happened in the past and attachment to this world had also been wiped out by the sunlight! Xu Que knew it clearly. Maybe Earth was a good place! However, he didn’t belong to this world after all!
His future wouldn’t end in the World of Cultivators. Further journey into the unknown was waiting for him. His pursuit of cultivation, immortality, and Acting Tough would never stop! Because eternity could only be realized by relentless pursuit.
Unknowingly, Xu Que had been standing at the summit of the mountain for several hours. The Sun was already very high. Jiang Hongyan and Xu Feifei had returned. Singularly, b.u.t.tface also came back on time.
Howl! “I’ve collected recipes of many delicacies! This time I will become world famous!” b.u.t.tface shouted excitedly. Apparently, instead of meeting his so-called friends, he had spent his time collecting all kinds of food recipes.
The toy poodle was still twitching his body on b.u.t.tface’s head.
Puff! “Eight-headed Serpent, you can stop now for you’ve done enough!” Xu Que, who couldn’t watch it anymore, said with a smile.
b.u.t.tface said, widening his eyes immediately, “It is far from enough! He can’t stop unless I ask him to stop! Anyway, serpent, you are quite sensible! You haven’t stopped the ma.s.sage since yesterday. You really have good physical strength! I appreciate your efforts. Come on, please continue! Harder! Oh yeah! That’s it!”
“OK…OK! No…problem!” The toy poodle said excitedly.
“Alas! What a fatal attraction!” Xu Que exclaimed.
Jiang Hongyan shook her head and didn’t know what to say.
Xu Feifei’s face was very red. She stared at Xu Que, which meant to say this was all caused by you! Xu Que ignored it directly. He didn’t debunk what the toy poodle was doing. He waved his hand and led his team into the place under the ruins of the Celestial sect in Mount Kunlun.
In front of the Bronze Door, all of them were fully prepared.
Xu Feifei’s face was full of attachment, anxiety, and expectation.
Jiang Hongyan was so graceful, elegant, and calm as always.
b.u.t.tface was smiling inattentively as he fantasied he could show off his culinary arts with these recipes in the World of Cultivators!
The toy poodle was…still moving relentlessly.
Xu Que was smiling st.u.r.dily. This time he would be powerful enough to confront the Emperor! As long as he could improve the proficiency of the Gautama Buddha Seal with more Skill Essences, he could defeat the Emperor with one move!
“System, let’s begin!”
Xu Que stared at the bronze door as he summoned the System in his mind!
Rumble!
An invisible force gushed out from Xu Que’s body abruptly, which opened the bronze door a bit. It was pitch-dark in the crack of the door. The glacial wind gushed out together with the magnificent killing aura!
“This aura is so weird! Where does it come from?” Xu Que frowned slightly as he stared at the crack of the bronze door curiously.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t see it clearly. What he saw was only the darkness which was even darker than the void!
Whoos.h.!.+
Just at this moment, a strand of dazzling light appeared on Xu Que’s body. The light was turned to many powerful runes, which covered Jiang Hongyan, Xu Feife, and b.u.t.tface beside him completely.
The next moment, a gap appeared in the crack of the bronze door, which devoured Xu Que and his team like a whirlpool!
Bang!
At last, the bronze door was closed heavily!
Xu Que and his team disappeared!
Dead silence came back to this place again!
