Chapter 32: Good or Bad. Being teased.
(32)
"Come and divorce, Shen Changyi."
Her voice was soft and no emotion could be heard.
But Shen Changyi could sense her anger, as if to prove something.
He looked at the paper and pen on the desk, his eyes gradually dimming, "You said that I can't replace Chen Changyi."
If he was really the person who grew up with her day and night, perhaps he would understand why Li Shanglu was angry at the moment and how to coax her.
But he is not.
Those memories belong to them and have nothing to do with Zhu Xuan.
Li Shanglu chuckled softly, "What do you mean he can't be replaced? You are him, he is you, you are all the same."
She picked up the pen and tremblingly wrote the divorce letter on the paper.
As long as they are not husband and wife, the so-called love disaster will collapse on its own.
Why is she always the villain? From today on, she wants everyone to know that she doesn't need Chen Changyi anymore, and doesn't want to be a love troublemaker anymore.
He can marry whomever he wants, and they will go their separate ways, never to see each other again, and that's the end of it.
Shen Changyi walked up to her, frowned slightly, and raised his hand. Li Shanglu froze in place, unable to move.
Li Shanglu looked at him in astonishment. Shen Changyi had never used any magic on her.
"Don't write anymore." He leaned over and took the half-written divorce letter away. He looked at Li Shanglu and said, "Tell me, why did you suddenly get so angry?"
Li Shanglu stared at him hatefully without saying a word.
The next second, a cold finger gently touched her forehead.
Shen Changyi's calm eyes rippled slightly. He looked at her in surprise and said softly, "Li Shanglu, you misunderstood."
Li Shanglu didn't know what kind of magic he used, but it was obvious that this bastard already knew what she was thinking. She felt even more annoyed for no reason, as if she had been stripped naked and exposed to the other person without reservation.
"You seem even angrier?" Shen Changyi was somewhat helpless, and his fingertips moved towards her forehead again.
"If you dare to do that again, I'll chop off your hands."
His fingertips trembled, and Shen Changyi quickly retracted them, explaining softly, "Since you won't tell me, I can only do this."
Li Shanglu looked at him coldly for a while, then heard Shen Changyi speak in a gentle voice, "You really misunderstood. Du Heng and I have absolutely no opinion of you. This matter of love tribulation started seven hundred years ago..."
"I don't want to hear it."
Shen Changyi paused and pursed his lips, "But I want to say."
This is also the difference between Zhou Xuan and Shen Changyi. Zhou Xuan will not give up on what he wants to do just because Li Shanglu is reluctant.
His body still frozen, Li Shanglu took a deep breath and listened to him muttering about seven hundred years ago.
"That was after I ascended to heaven. I calculated that seven hundred years later, which is now, there will be a catastrophe on earth, so I wanted to come down to earth to stop it." Shen Changyi paused and helped Li Shanglu break free from the spell.
Li Shanglu turned around and was about to leave, but he pushed the door and it wouldn't budge.
Shen Changyi continued to speak slowly, "The Heavenly Dao told me that after a True Immortal descends to the mortal world, I will be reincarnated. Not only will I lose my memories, but my fate will also not be as peaceful and smooth as my previous life."
He keeps talking!
Li Shanglu didn't want to hear a single word!
She tried to pry the window open again, but couldn't.
"So before I came down to earth, I divined my fate in this life and learned that there would be a love calamity, and that calamity would be with you."
Li Shanglu's body suddenly froze.
Chen Changyi casually recounted this as if he were telling someone else's story, "So I told this to Du Heng, hoping he could help me resolve this emotional calamity. Therefore, Du Heng knew about this from the beginning. I have never been on guard against you. From the beginning to the end, I only wanted to resolve this emotional calamity."
"You don't have to treat this as a dead end that can only be resolved by life or death."
"You and Shen Changyi are divorced, or you are in love with each other, and the emotional calamity will be resolved on its own."
After saying that, Shen Changyi saw that she was still motionless, so he walked over to her and said gently, "Yesterday, when I asked you if you wanted to divorce, I angered you. I was puzzled, so I went to ask Du Heng. Du Heng told me that your relationship has improved."
"Chen Changyi is beginning to gain your favor, right?"
Li Shanglu suddenly turned around and looked at him, pursed his lips, and after a while, stepped hard on his boots.
Shen Changyi stepped back in pain, and whispered aggrievedly, "Why?"
Which of his words just now was wrong?
Li Shanglu narrowed his eyes and looked at him. "No reason. I will punish you if I am angry, and I will punish you if I am not angry."
"..." Shen Changyi's brows relaxed, as if he was relieved. "So now you're not angry anymore, that's great."
Where did you come to this ridiculous conclusion?
Li Shanglu was about to deny it, but Shen Changyi leaned over and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief.
His movements were gentle and his voice was soft, "Don't cry so much in the future. You are very beautiful and you look beautiful when you smile."
Li Shanglu opened his eyes slightly, and his heart palpitated for no reason.
Such words were definitely not something Shen Changyi would say.
That idiot would just say something nervously and would never make her angry again.
It seems that Shen Changyi had a very smooth life in his previous life.
"Don't touch me. If you have nothing else to say, get out of here."
Li Shanglu pushed his hand away and sat back in front of the alchemy furnace to fiddle with the herbs. The anger and resentment that had been buried deep in his heart had dissipated without him knowing when.
Shen Changyi, however, moved a stool and sat next to her.
"If there's nothing else to do today, I'll accompany you."
Li Shanglu ignored him and continued to trim the herbs.
Seeing this, Shen Changyi also picked up the herbs and carefully trimmed them bit by bit, imitating her.
"Is there anything else you want to ask?"
He talks a lot.
Li Shanglu glanced at him and said coldly, "Where did you learn that from?"
Shen Changyi was stunned for a moment, "Which sentence?"
"What do you think?"
Shen Changyi racked his brains for a long time and asked tentatively, "Are you asking, is it beautiful when you smile?"
Li Shanglu said nothing.
Obviously this is it.
As if he didn't expect her to care, Shen Changyi pondered for a moment and whispered, "I'm just telling the truth. I have been practicing in the mountains for more than 20 years and never come down. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, but you always have a stern face every time we meet."
He felt this way when he just recovered his memory.
Li Shanglu cried beautifully, which made people feel distressed. He unconsciously wanted to do something for her. He touched his body, took out a handkerchief and handed it to her.
"I never have a stern face when I'm with others," Li Shanglu said, becoming slightly interested. "So, you've been practicing in the mountains, and you've never met anyone?"
"It's not that I haven't seen others. I still have my master." Shen Changyi missed those days very much. "At that time, I only practiced with my master. My master would tell me stories about the otherworldly world, but he told me to concentrate on my practice and not go down the mountain to be contaminated by the mundane world."
Like a monk.
Li Shanglu inexplicably wanted to laugh, "Isn't it boring?"
Shen Changyi shook his head. "Practicing is already interesting enough. Mundane affairs are not that tempting to me."
"Really?" Li Shanglu asked meaningfully, "You really don't want to give it a try?"
There was a hint of danger in her tone. Shen Changyi looked at her in confusion, not knowing what to do. "Try what?"
Hearing this, Li Shanglu suddenly smiled, stretched out his hand and touched his collar.
She really looks beautiful when she smiles.
Shen Changyi paused for a moment, and watched motionlessly as the thin, white hand touched his chest.
What to do?
The cool fingertips penetrated deep into the collar as soft as boneless, bringing an even more fragrant and charming fragrance.
Shen Changyi subconsciously grabbed her wrist, and he didn't know why he did that.
He just felt that this was not right and not good.
"Let go." Li Shanglu leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Zhou Xuan, I'm touching my own husband, why are you stopping me?"
The tip of his ear was dyed red by her warm breath. Shen Changyi moved his face away in a panic and whispered, "I'm not your husband now."
"Of course not, my husband just forgot who I am." Li Shanglu put his arms around his neck, leaned close to his ear affectionately, and bit his earlobe with evil intentions.
In an instant, Chen Changyi trembled all over as if he had been electrocuted, and the fingertips hidden in his sleeves curled up little by little. He wanted to push her away, but was afraid that she would be angry.
"Don't," he said almost pleadingly, "It's itchy..."
She clearly knew that he was not Shen Changyi, so why did she treat him like this?
Li Shanglu licked and bit the earlobe, smiling deeply, "What's wrong? Immortal Lord Zhu Xuan, you don't look well?"
Shen Changyi impatiently put his hand on her shoulder, wanting to take the opportunity to retreat, but Li Shanglu immediately took advantage of the situation and moved closer to him.
The movement was a little too quick, and the hand accidentally misplaced itself and touched something soft.
"Immortal Lord Zhuxuan, how could you be so disrespectful to me?" Li Shanglu looked at him in feigned surprise, grabbing his wrist and forcing him to withdraw it. "There's nothing wrong with me being intimate with my husband, but you knowing I'm not your wife, and yet you treat me like this, is simply too vile."
Chen Changyi opened his mouth in a state of being unable to argue, then pursed his lips in frustration and helplessness.
He didn't mean to molest.
No.
"You did it on purpose." He said sullenly.
Li Shanglu almost laughed out loud.
Nonsense, of course she did it on purpose.
"Zhu Xuanxianjun, how dare you cry thief? When my husband comes back, I will tell him that he was a pervert before he came to the mortal world and he liked to touch me."
Shen Changyi's face turned even redder. He withdrew his hand and stood up awkwardly, "I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do."
"stop."
Li Shanglu patted the bench, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Come back and sit down."
Shen Changyi looked back at her and made a hand gesture without hesitation. Before leaving, he whispered, "Wait until you fall asleep, I will come back to watch over you."
"You..." Li Shanglu watched him disappear from the spot, and angrily threw the herbs where he had just stood.
At least help her finish the work.
*
Outside the inn, on the eaves somewhere.
Shen Changyi sat under the moon, gently rubbing his earlobe with his fingertips.
The sides of her face and neck were burning red, and her thick eyelashes like crow feathers drooped, hiding the embarrassment in her eyes.
He seemed to know what that meant.
Li Shanglu was teasing him, good or bad.
