Chapter 125 The Ghost King with Bad Intentions
"Xiao Jiuer has been studying all the time and has ignored me."
When Yu Zimo saw Jiang Jiu finally set her eyes on him, he suddenly felt resentful. Combined with his identity, Jiang Jiu felt inexplicably guilty.
"Isn't this my most important task right now..."
Although she felt this way from the bottom of her heart, she always felt a little insecure facing Yu Zimo's attitude. After all, she seemed to have left him alone for a long time.
"....never mind."
Yu Zimo was silent for a moment. If it was something Xiaojiuer insisted on doing, he would not disturb her, but no one else could do that during this period!
He could wait until Jiang Jiu was willing to accept him and leave.
Although I am eager to take her away every minute and every second, a year or two won't make a difference.
"?"
Jiang Jiu was stunned. He didn't expect Yu Zimo to let him go so easily.
"Oh well."
Seeing that Yu Zimo really had no intention of continuing to worry about it, she naturally shifted her attention back to the book, and the two of them just quietly accompanied each other.
Of course, Yu Zimo thinks so.
As Jiang Jiu was learning, some strange images suddenly flashed before his eyes for some reason.
It seemed like Yu Zimo was holding her hand and teaching her something.
They were all wearing ancient costumes and seemed to be...learning swordsmanship.
Jiang Jiu startled and raised his head, just in time to meet Yu Zimo's blood-red eyes, but he had the impression that he had his eyes covered, so he couldn't see these blood-red ghost eyes clearly.
Yu Zimo gave her an inquiring look, and Jiang Jiu subconsciously shook her head to indicate that it was nothing.
But when her eyes fell on the paper again, she felt an indescribable irritation in her heart for some reason, and she began to have trouble doing the questions.
Those blindfolded eyes seemed to be hinting at something.
Some of the experiences seemed familiar to her.
Finally, Jiang Jiu couldn't suppress his curiosity anymore. He put down his pen with a snap and walked straight to Yu Zimo.
Yu Zimo was a little confused by her actions. He didn't know what the person who just said she wanted to study wanted to do.
But he didn't expect Jiang Jiu to reach out and cover his eyes.
“!”
Yu Zimo's eyebrows twitched.
He was essentially a ghost, so even if his view was blocked, it was actually useless, but Jiang Jiu's action seemed to say that she seemed to have remembered something.
This realization made Yu Zimo ecstatic. He grasped Jiang Jiu's wrist with his slender, cold fingers. Because he was too excited, his whole body began to tremble slightly.
Jiang Jiu also noticed that Yu Zimo's condition was not right, but now that her hand was being held, she seemed unable to leave.
She couldn't help but feel a pang of regret in her heart.
It seems I was a little impulsive. How should I explain it now?
"Xiao Jiu'er, did you remember something?"
Jiang Jiu was just beginning to feel annoyed when she heard Yu Zimo's restrained yet joyful question, as if her answer today could change the world.
This realization made Jiang Jiu feel a little nervous.
She stammered somewhat when she spoke again.
"No, no... I just want to know, were you blind before..."
After Jiang Jiu finished speaking, the room fell into silence. During the few seconds of waiting, Jiang Jiu felt a little regretful, because asking this question seemed to be poking at someone's sore spot.
If Yu Zimo was indeed blind before and regained his sight after becoming a ghost, then she is asking for trouble and exposing his past.
After all, people who have been disabled before will definitely not be able to accept their shortcomings being mentioned again.
Unexpectedly, not long after her thought arose, she heard Yu Zimo's suppressed, crazy low laughter, which made people shudder. It seemed that the sound came from the depths of the underworld, making Jiang Jiu tremble a little.
But soon she heard Yu Zimo say.
"Yes, that's right. I was indeed blind before. How did Xiao Jiuer know that? Did he remember something?"
His questions came one after another, making Jiang Jiu a little confused.
But when he met his eyes, Jiang Jiu miraculously calmed down.
In fact, she was a little scared just now, but she didn't feel any aggression from Yu Zimo. It could be said that he posed no threat to her at all. So even though Yu Zimo looked abnormal now, Jiang Jiu didn't think he would hurt her.
This inexplicable trust also made Jiang Jiu feel uneasy. It seemed to mean that she was indeed merging with her previous life self.
Is this really what she wants?
Ginger wine was a little confused.
"I...I just remembered a little bit. I remembered the way you covered your eyes."
Although she was still thinking and immersed in her own thoughts, she still answered Yu Zimo's questions honestly.
The next second, Jiang Jiu discovered that Yu Zimo had actually bitten the soft flesh on her palm with his teeth.
“!”
Jiang Jiu was a little frightened, not knowing what this man was going to do. She wanted to pull her hand back, but she couldn't move, as if she was frozen.
The palm of her hand was itchy and numb from being bitten by the teeth, but it didn't hurt, so she had to endure it silently.
Until Yu Zimo finally let her go.
"Then do you know what you used to call me?"
Yu Zimo raised his head slightly and looked up at Jiang Jiu, his tone full of desire, expecting a response.
Jiang Jiu was standing in front of him, and Yu Zimo was sitting on a chair. It seemed that Jiang Jiu was higher than the other two. But even when Yu Zimo looked up at him, Jiang Jiu still had the illusion that he was being targeted by a hunter.
She seemed like prey from which there was no escape.
Jiang Jiu's mind was full of wild thoughts, but his actions were a little timid.
"I, I don't know."
She shrank back, a bit like a frightened little animal. She was a little uncomfortable being treated so intimately all of a sudden.
There was a flash of disappointment in Yu Zimo's eyes, but he was relieved in an instant. Some things can be taken slowly. It was a good thing that Jiang Jiu could remember a little bit now.
He felt his teeth itching as he held the ginger wine in his mouth. If he didn't do this, he would be worried that he would attack such a cute little wine directly.
Who made her look concerned and ask him if he had ever been blind?
Yu Zimo has a bad heart and blames all the mistakes on Jiang Jiu. In fact, he knows very well how despicable a person he is and wants to get more from Jiang Jiu, but he can only endure it silently.
She wanted to make excuses for herself, but in the end she would still take a step back, for fear of scaring his little Jiuer.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked that."
Jiang Jiu saw that Yu Zimo seemed to have calmed down a lot, and finally couldn't help but apologize.
Yu Zimo was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and curled up the corner of his mouth into a wicked smile.
"It's okay, I'll tell you whatever you want to know."
His tone was gentle and persuasive, as if he was luring an innocent little rabbit into taking the bait.
