Bai Shimu first saw Gu Jueye on news reports. He was from a prestigious family, exceptionally handsome and elegant. Her first impression of him? "A demon!"
The second time she met Gu ...
Looking at the flying saucer hovering in mid-air not far behind him, it was clear that this man was not an ordinary human.
Noticing Bai Qianmo's scrutiny, Da Ze coughed lightly and chuckled, "I am a subterranean person, and... Lord Jue is a friend of mine."
I almost called out Xu Changchong's name for a moment.
That name has been used for over a hundred years, and now that it's been changed back to his original name, it really feels a bit strange.
Subterranean humans?
A look of surprise flashed across Bai Qianmo's eyes.
She had heard of subterranean beings. Some ancient records, as well as some psychics or people who have had contact with extraterrestrials, and even some geologists, have mentioned that our Earth has a core.
Just like fruit, it has an outer layer of flesh and an inner hollow core.
Thus, two civilizations gradually emerged: those on the surface and those in the depths of the earth.
I had only heard legends of subterranean people before, saying that their civilization was far more advanced than that of humans on the surface. This is the first time I've seen real people.
Moreover, the other party is Fifth Brother's friend.
"Let's go back first and talk about it later." Gu Jueye pulled Bai Qianmo towards the flying saucer.
Several of his men followed closely behind him.
As Daze watched their backs as they walked hand in hand, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
A man who never lets anyone get within three steps of him actually took the girl's hand.
That's strange.
Unfortunately, he didn't bring a surface person's phone. If he had taken a picture and brought it back, it would have definitely shocked all the girls.
Xu Changchong lived in the Earth's core for a long time. Because of his outstanding appearance and innate noble and imposing temperament, he naturally attracted the attention of many girls.
He has the granddaughter of the Grand Elder, the daughter of the High Priest, and so on. It seems that any single girl who sees him will unconsciously develop a liking for him.
Daze thought to himself, "What happened to our promise to focus solely on cultivation and not get involved in relationships?"
Why is it that as soon as this kid appears, they all seem like young girls with budding dreams, having long forgotten their own ages of hundreds of years, and actually coveting a young man in his early twenties?
Okay, he admits he's jealous.
"Little Momo, you're finally back safe and sound."
Back on the flying saucer, Du Muchen looked her up and down with a smile for a while.
"I can only feel at ease when I'm sure he's completely unharmed, otherwise I won't be able to explain myself properly."
She glanced at Gu Jueye as she spoke.
Although Gu Jueye didn't say anything to blame him, he knew in his heart how important Bai Qianmo was to him.
Moreover, Qianmo was kidnapped because she helped Sister Su. In order to spare Sister Su from feeling guilty and remorse, he must bring Qianmo back safely.
"I'm fine."
"Fifth Brother, let's talk in private." Bai Qianmo had something on her mind and needed to verify it with Gu Jueye as soon as possible.
"Okay, come with me."
Gu Jueye also happened to want to ask about the origins of the people who kidnapped her, and what the agreement between her and that man was.
The two walked to a secluded space.
What do you want to ask?
Gu Jueye spoke first.
Bai Qianmo remained silent for a few seconds, seemingly hesitant about how to speak.
She wanted to ask about her amnesia.
Fifth Brother said she had only lost six years of her memory.
Ye Yun, however, said that her primordial spirit was no longer in her body, and that her current memories were artificially implanted later.
In her memory, the six years she lost were a blank; she never even dreamed about anything from that time.
She didn't even know how she woke up in the hospital.
I later heard from my grandfather and the others that after she woke up, she went straight to the research institute wearing her hospital gown.
Logically, even if she did lose her memory due to fainting, she should still have that memory after waking up.
But she has no recollection of it at all; her last memory is waking up in the research institute.
The person she saw when she woke up was Fifth Brother, so the only person who could help her implant memories was Fifth Brother.
"What caused my amnesia at that time?"
Gu Jueye's eyelids twitched, and his gaze slowly met Bai Qianmo's eyes.
Why are you suddenly asking this?
"I'm suddenly very curious. Six years of memories just vanished like that, but the hospital said my head didn't suffer any serious injury and there were no external factors. How could I suddenly lose my memory?"
"Fifth Brother, you always said that one day I would understand some of the truth, and now I think I know some of it."
Gu Jueye's heart jolted, and he silently supported her.
"you say."
His intuition told him that she already knew something.
Bai Qianmo took a deep breath.
“My primordial spirit is gone, isn’t it? The memories I have now are what you implanted into my brain later. So, those six years of memories weren’t lost, but rather… you didn’t have time to store them.”
Gu Jueye remained silent.
Bai Qianmo has confirmed her guess.
"Where did my soul go? Why did you store my memories? Fifth Brother, I hope we can be open and honest with each other."
The person she trusts most doesn't want him to lie to her.
After a long silence, Gu Jueye took Bai Qianmo's hand and gently stroked her soft, long hair with his other hand.
His gaze gradually softened.
"I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to worry about it. Do you remember when I told you about my wife last time?"
Bai Qianmo nodded.
How could she possibly forget her biggest rival in love, the one who holds a special place in Fifth Brother's heart?
"That person is you."
Boom
I thought Fifth Brother was going to start by telling his tragic love story.
Unexpectedly, a thunderclap struck from the sky.
What the heck?
