Male Lead: Seduce me quickly! Leng Yue: No, no, no, I can't do it!
Male Lead: I allow you to seduce me! Leng Yue: ... This generation's male lead is so hard to handle, I want to go ho...
The scenes flashed by, all memories of Biluo and Wei He's love. There were their first meeting, their vows of love, their promise to spend their lives together, and Biluo, heavily pregnant, being helped by Wei He for a walk. No matter the scene, they were all happy. Until the very end, the image froze on Wei He piercing Biluo's heart with a sword…
Wei He stared at his hands in disbelief. How could I hurt her? No, I wouldn't hurt her. Although Wei He couldn't remember anything, his heart ached instinctively. The more he doubted, the more his heart ached. Finally, he clutched his heart with his hand, trying to stop the pain.
"There's no need to put on an act for us, is there?" Nine-Tailed Fox scoffed. She had already personally stabbed someone in the heart with her sword. What was the point of pretending to be all love at this point?
Leng Yue shook her head. "What the storyteller said is true."
"What is true?" Nine-Tails had never heard of this, mainly because she was distracted at the time and didn't hear it.
"The storyteller told some royal secrets," Qianchen said, looking at Wei He, who was clutching his heart in pain, and then at Jiuwei. "Rumor has it that the Seventh Prince has homosexual tendencies and is fond of young men. Before meeting the Imperial Advisor Wei He, the Seventh Prince was not a devoted man. But after meeting Wei He, he completely changed his mind and wanted to dote on Wei He alone."
“But before Wei He became the Imperial Preceptor, he already had a lover, and that person was Bi Luo.” Leng Yue continued, “At that time, although Wei He was already a powerful demon exorcist, he fell in love with Bi Luo at first sight because of her innocent and carefree nature. Just like you see, the two were in love with each other and vowed to stay together for life.”
“But how could the Seventh Prince allow Wei He and Bi Luo to spend their lives together? What should he do?” Leng Yue sighed. Since ancient times, love has been the most hurtful thing. She shook her head and continued, “But Wei He doesn’t want power or fear of tarnishing his reputation. So, no matter what the Seventh Prince does, no matter how he threatens or entices him, Wei He does not agree.”
"Then why did they still become enemies?" Nine-Tailed Fox's mind flashed back to Wei He and Biluo's happy and sweet image, so different from her own. Everyone could see she was dealing with a scumbag, except she herself. But with Biluo and Wei He, no one would have imagined things would turn out that way until the very end.
"The Seventh Prince somehow learned of a dark magic called 'Transference of Feelings,' which can transform him into Wei He's favorite person, and Wei He will slowly forget his original lover," Qian Chen continued. "So, the Seventh Prince willingly debases himself, dressing up as a woman every day. Wei He, controlled by the magic, can't tell the Seventh Prince's appearance at all. Gradually, Wei He truly comes to regard the Seventh Prince as his most beloved person."
"Won't my birth mother find out?" Nine-Tails found it unbelievable. How could she not find out if her husband had changed his mind?
“Perhaps she trusted him too much. Look at Biluo’s memories; they’re all beautiful,” Leng Yue explained. “Women are different from men; they are more emotional. Plus, Biluo was pregnant at the time, so it’s understandable that she might have some energy issues.”
Qianchen waited for them to finish speaking before continuing, "Because this transference technique comes at a great cost, as it requires the lifespan of the person being transferred to as a catalyst to be cast, not many people use it. But the Seventh Prince insisted on doing it, so those sorcerers could only set up an array."
"As a result, not long after Wei He fell completely in love with the Seventh Prince, the Seventh Prince began to vomit blood and was on his deathbed."
"At that time, someone heard that the inner core of the fox clan could prolong life. So, the Seventh Prince bewitched Wei He, which led to Wei He piercing Biluo's heart and taking her inner core."
"They could have become a perfect couple, but in the end they were separated by death!"
Qianchen also felt sorry for him. There was nothing wrong with such a person; the only one who was wrong was the Seventh Prince.
“Yes, Wei He is also a pitiful person.” Leng Yue leaned against Qian Chen’s chest, thankfully they hadn’t missed each other.
"Then... can he regain his memories now?" Nine-Tailed Fox looked at Wei He squatting on the ground and suddenly felt a pang of pity. They were different; Gu Chen wasn't even a hair on Wei He's head. Sigh, they were still different!
Biluo is both unfortunate and fortunate. She is the most foolish and stupid one. Gu Chen didn't even give her a fake perfunctory response. How humble she is!
“You are… Jiu’er?” Wei He suddenly stood up from the ground, looking at Jiuwei with clear eyes.
Nine-Tailed Fox was taken aback, looking at Leng Yue and Qian Chen. Leng Yue nodded, "The name Bi Luo gave you before she died was Jiu'er, and the name I gave you is Nine-Tailed Fox."
"..." Nine-Tailed Fox's face was full of black lines as she stared blankly at Leng Yue. "Mother, actually, Nine-Tailed Fox sounds better than Nine-Tailed Fox, right?"
"Oh dear, the worse the name, the easier it is to raise a child. I was even thinking of naming you Dog Egg or something," Leng Yue said with a wicked smile, and Jiuwei couldn't help but shut up.
In the end, she didn't dare to complain anymore, and gave an awkward but polite smile, "Thank you, Mother, for naming me!"
"However, how do you know her name is Jiu'er?" Leng Yue looked at Wei He. "Could it be that you chose this name before?"
Wei He nodded, a nostalgic smile on his face. "Yes, back then, Jiu'er was still in Biluo's belly, and she was always making a fuss. So I said, 'Jiu'er, don't make a fuss with Mommy, or Daddy will spank you when you come out.' And then the child really calmed down. From then on, we called her Jiu'er every day, and Jiu'er became her nickname."
"So, Biluo still has hope for you. Then, I'm not going against her last wish, am I?" Leng Yue suddenly remembered Biluo's instructions and turned to Qian Chen to make amends.
Qian Chen could only smile. "The main reason is that the Qingqiu Fox Clan doesn't accept the Nine-Tailed Fox."
"That's right, I even helped her take care of the child myself! So, Biluo won't blame me!" Leng Yue smiled guiltily.
"What exactly is it? What last wish or entrustment are you talking about?" Nine-Tails was completely confused by what they were saying.
"It's just... haha, it's just that your birth mother said she wouldn't let you set foot in the human world!" Leng Yue said, throwing caution to the wind, "As a result, we've been raising you in the human world all this time."
“Um,” Nine-Tails paused for a moment, then said, “I support you on this point. Luckily I’m in the human world; I would have gone crazy if I weren’t.”
"Jiu'er, wherever you want to go in the future... I'll go with you, okay?" Wei He looked at Jiuwei cautiously, not daring to hope that Jiuwei would agree.
"I have my father and mother with me, I really don't need to." Although Nine-Tailed Fox felt sorry for Wei He, she preferred to be with Leng Yue Qianchen. They were not only the closest people to her in this world, but also the people who knew her background. In front of them, she never had to hide anything, and Nine-Tailed Fox was used to this kind of relationship.
"I... okay!" Wei He looked at the Nine-Tailed Fox, and although he wanted to persuade it to stay, he only managed to say "okay".
"If you need anything, come to me anytime. By the way, this is the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion plaque. Seeing this plaque is the same as seeing me. You can command all registered demon exorcists." Wei He excitedly handed a plaque with dark patterns to Nine-Tailed Fox, who nodded and accepted it.
