She couldn't help but praise, "It seems that your fiancée's cooking skills are extraordinary."
Jingyi replied with a deep gaze, "Not really. It's just that I love osmanthus cake, so she specially learned how to make it. At that time, she was devoted to me. It's just a pity that she later fell in love with someone else and ran away from our wedding."
A look of surprise flashed across Chu Yu's eyes.
This gentleman was outstanding in every way, from his demeanor and appearance to his speech. Unexpectedly, his fiancée cheated on him and ran away from the wedding.
It seems his fiancée is quite extraordinary.
Jingyi gazed intently at Chu Yu, a sigh flashing in his eyes: "Although she betrayed me, I still love her. All these years, I have never forgotten her."
His eyes were filled with deep sorrow.
Chu Yu sighed inwardly, realizing that he was still a devoted lover.
At this moment, the male servant came over with a scroll and respectfully said to Jingyi, "Master, the portrait of the lady has been completed. Would you like to take a look?"
Jingyi looked at the scroll, his eyes flashing with anticipation: "Open it and take a look."
The male servant slowly unfurled the scroll; it was a painting of an ancient lady.
The woman in the painting is dressed in a pink palace gown, with an exquisite hairpin in her hair, and holding a flute in her hand, sitting under a peach tree.
The peach blossoms are in full bloom, their beauty dazzling.
The flowers are beautiful, but the people are even more beautiful.
Chu Yu looked at the painting and was about to praise the woman in it as being more beautiful than a celestial being, but upon closer inspection, she was surprised to find that the woman's face was quite similar to hers, and even the flute she was holding was very similar to her Demon-Subduing Flute.
A hint of surprise flashed in Chu Yu's eyes as she asked Jing Yi, "Is the woman in this painting your runaway fiancée?"
Jingyi nodded slightly and sighed, "Yes. The painting is good, but the spirit of the person in the painting is less than one-thousandth of the real person."
The male servant looked at Chu Yu, then at the woman in the painting, and exclaimed, "Master, this young lady looks just like the lady in the painting!"
Jingyi looked up at Chu Yu, her gaze resolute: "They are the same person, so of course they look alike."
These words exploded in Chu Yu's mind like a thunderclap.
Is she the same person as Jingyi's fiancée?!
What's going on?
Chu Yu asked, bewildered, "Mr. Jingyi, you must be mistaken. How could I possibly be your fiancée?"
Jingyi curled the corners of her lips and replied meaningfully, "You are her, yet you are not her."
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow at him: "What do you mean?"
Jingyi flicked his sleeve and frankly told him, "You are her reincarnation."
Chu Yu exclaimed, her gaze fixed intently on Jing Yi.
When I first saw him, he looked very familiar, and now that I see him, he looks even more familiar.
Could this person really be her fiancé from her past life?
"We have been separated for a very long time. Now that we have met again, it means that we are still destined to be together. This time, may we rekindle our fate?"
Jingyi gazed at Chuyu with deep affection.
His affectionate gaze filled Chu Yu with inexplicable fear.
She subconsciously felt a little afraid of Jingyi. Thinking of Fu Yuncheng, she hurriedly shook her head: "No matter what happened in my past life, I am married in this life. I have a husband, and I love my husband very much. Mr. Jingyi, I hope you will stop dwelling on your past life. You are so outstanding and handsome. You will definitely find someone more suitable for you."
Upon hearing these words, a deep sneer flashed in Jingyi's eyes: "As you say, I am outstanding, handsome, powerful, and even incredibly influential. I am the husband that every woman in the world dreams of. As my fiancée, why don't you cherish me and instead betray me to be with another man?"
The questioning words carried an immense force.
Chu Yu was thrown out of the pavilion, but fortunately she reacted quickly and took a few steps back, creating some distance between herself and the pavilion.
Seeing Chu Yu suddenly distance herself from him, anger flashed in his eyes, followed by some hurt.
"What, are you afraid of me?"
Chu Yu was indeed somewhat afraid of him. Although she didn't know what kind of grudges or entanglements they had in their past lives, she always felt a little scared when facing him and subconsciously wanted to stay away from him.
Jingyi raised an eyebrow and said, "Last time you were attacked by the dragon, if it weren't for me, you would have died long ago. You owe me a life in this life."
Chu Yu was startled.
Last time, when she and Jiang Huai'an returned to the capital, they encountered a dragon while crossing a bridge. They were attacked by the dragon and their lives were hanging by a thread when a divine sword descended from the sky, slaying the dragon and saving their lives.
At the time, they were all curious about who had saved her and Jiang Huai'an's lives. Later, she had people investigate, but they found nothing. It turned out that the mastermind behind it all was Jing Yi.
Since it was him, she did indeed owe him a debt of gratitude.
Chu Yu composed herself and said, "I have always been grateful for kindness. Since you saved me last time, I owe you a debt of gratitude. What do you want me to do? If I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy you. But if you want to rekindle our relationship, that is impossible. I will not betray my husband."
Anger surged in Jingyi's eyes: "Did you love him that much in both your past and present lives?"
Chu Yu's heart skipped a beat.
What did he mean by that? Did she betray him in her past life so that she could be with Fu Yunche in his past life?
At that moment, she suddenly wanted to know what had happened in her past life.
What kind of grudges and entanglements did she have with Jing Yi and Fu Yunche in their past lives?
Meeting her questioning gaze, Jingyi calmed down a bit: "If you want to know about your past life, then come with me to Penglai Immortal Island."
"Penglai Immortal Island? Isn't that the legendary fairyland?"
Jingyi nodded: "Yes, it really is a fairyland. Tens of thousands of years ago, we all lived there. Now that so much time has passed, you should go back."
Before Chu Yu could refuse, a golden light suddenly flashed beneath her feet, and an extremely powerful teleportation array appeared. Before he could react, he had already been sucked into the teleportation array.
...
It was late at night.
Yufuyuan.
Fu Yunche sat in his study, unable to focus on the documents.
He texted Chu Yu on his phone, but she didn't reply. He felt uneasy and was about to call Jiang Huai'an to ask if Chu Yu was at the courtyard house when suddenly a wave of drowsiness washed over him, and he fell asleep.
A few seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes after falling asleep, and his eyes turned blood red.
He stood up, did some calculations with his fingers, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and then transformed into a black streak, flying out of the window.
Youdu City, Ghost King's Palace.
The Rakshasa King stood in the main hall, gazing towards the snow-capped mountains, his eyes filled with sorrow.
He had sensed that the seal on the snow mountain was loosening, so he sent someone to check it out. Unexpectedly, the person who checked it returned and reported that the person who was sealed had disappeared.
He was terrified and immediately sent experts to search the city. Now the entire Youdu City has been searched, but there is still no trace of that person, which makes him extremely anxious.
