Helian Yizhuo's expression immediately changed: "I think you don't want to live anymore."
Shi Mingyue looked at him fearlessly: "Fu Yueli will be here soon."
"Do you think he can save you?" Helian Yizhuo laughed at her naiveté, while a malicious look appeared on his face. "I haven't touched a woman in a long time. I wonder how you, the Crown Princess of Zhao, would fare."
Shi Mingyue said tiredly, "Fu Bo, that's enough."
Helian Yizhuo paused, his eyes changing as he looked at Shi Mingyue: "When did you know you were mine?"
Shi Mingyue said, "Just now, I learned in a dream that you were once Fu Bo. You are so persistent in your research on immortality, so I guess you must have also recovered Fu Bo's memories."
"Yes, I restored Fu Bo's memory. When the meteorite fell in the center of the Ulan Bu Desert, I saw a shooting star streaking across the sky, and my memory suddenly came back." Helian Yizhuo admitted his identity. "Mingwei, we meet again."
This time he greeted Shi Mingyue, or Mingwei, as Fu Bo.
"I'm very curious. Didn't you love He Jun until death? Now that you've become a woman in this life, why did you marry Fu Yueli instead of him?" Fu Bo did it on purpose.
Shi Mingyue said, "I've already said that He Jun and I are friends. As for you, since you are the founding emperor of the Fu family, why do you want to attack the Fu family?"
"I should be the emperor of Zhao State, no, I should be the emperor of the world. Although Fu Xingkai and Fu Yueli are my descendants in name only, do you think someone like me would care about such ridiculous blood ties?"
"So you want to be immortal, so you can live forever."
Fu Bo said, "Not bad."
Shi Mingyue still had one question she didn't understand: "If that's the case, why did you take He Jun in before?"
Fu Bo said, "He Jun thought I didn't have Fu Bo's memories and wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, so I just went along with it. At that time, I wanted to bring you and He Jun together, but unfortunately you didn't appreciate it and ran away together."
Shi Mingyue thought that this was indeed something Fu Bo could do.
"Why don't you expect He Jun to save you this time, but instead expect Fu Yueli to save you?" Fu Bo teased.
Shi Mingyue said, "You won't succeed."
Fu Bo's eyes instantly filled with fire. He was completely enraged. "You died in my hands before, and now I can kill you again. But it's strange that you turned into a woman in this life."
He put down the lantern, grabbed Shi Mingyue's collar and lifted her up. Shi Mingyue was lifted up by him.
"Has He Jun never slept with you?" Fu Bo asked maliciously.
Shi Mingyue couldn't break free from his hand, "I said we are friends!"
Fu Bo shook his head. "After I regained my memory, I also remembered some things. Those poor ruffians you met in the alleys of West Street were eventually arrested by the government. They were tortured to death at He Jun's behest. They must have violated you, otherwise why would He Jun go to such lengths with these ruffians?"
Shi Mingyue didn't know about this and she didn't know what happened to those thugs.
"I didn't understand what was so fun about eunuchs at first, but later I saw a lot in the palace. Now I think about it, I feel a little regretful. It was because I didn't know how to be gentle with women that I killed you directly, hung you on the city gate, and then fed you to the dogs. Do you hate me?" Fu Bo deliberately brought up the past to provoke her.
Shi Mingyue glared at him: "So what if I say I hate you."
"You are so biased. It was He Jun who caused you to be castrated, but you don't hate him. But when I helped you get rid of it, you hate me." Fu Bo said with a smile.
Shi Mingyue couldn't bear it any longer, "Kill me."
Fu Bo shook his head: "How can that be? I have never been gentle with women. I'm really sorry for scratching your face, but it doesn't actually damage your beauty." He lowered his head and licked the wound on Shi Mingyue's face again.
Shi Mingyue turned her head and tried desperately to dodge, but she couldn't escape...
Fu Bo left. She didn't know what time it was, but she just felt very cold. She curled up her body to gather warmth, but she was still very cold.
But her tears were hot and salty, and she really wished she could die right now.
But she was unwilling to give up. She had not seen Fu Yueli yet. She could not die, she absolutely could not die!
She didn't know how long it had passed before she heard footsteps. Shi Mingyue was shaking all over. She couldn't bear to go through this again.
"Mingyue, are you here?"
Shi Mingyue felt relaxed at this voice. Although he was not Fu Yueli, he was her friend, He Jun.
He Jun walked in. He heard the woman sobbing softly. He took out the flint and was about to create sparks.
"No." Shi Mingyue stopped him.
He Jun walked forward, and Shi Mingyue grabbed a corner of his clothes and said, "Don't be naked."
"...Okay." He Jun hesitated for a moment and put away the flint.
Shi Mingyue suddenly stood up and hugged him. He Jun was startled. What he touched was naked and cold skin.
"Is it Helian Yizhuo?" He Jun's voice trembled.
Shi Mingyue corrected him: "It's Fu Bo."
"He also recovered his memory... I'm sorry, I should have thought of it earlier." He Jun hugged her tightly.
Shi Mingyue shook her head. She really felt very tired: "No, it's not your fault."
He Jun lowered his head and placed a kiss on her hair. "Don't you still want to see Fu Yueli? I'll take you to see him."
Shi Mingyue's spirits improved a lot. She let go of He Jun. He Jun took off his coat and put it on her. "Put it on, let's go."
He Jun then took her hand and left. They walked along the corridor until they reached a room. Shi Mingyue heard a voice coming from inside: "Now it depends on whether you dare to try."
It was Xu Ziling who was speaking, and the person she was talking to was obviously Fu Bo.
Fu Bo's voice came from inside the house: "Why wouldn't I dare? Let's try it."
He Jun kicked the door open and the two people inside looked at him.
Fu Bo saw Shi Mingyue beside him and said with a smile, "Good friends gathered together. Oh, and they're holding hands so tightly."
He Jun stood in front of Shi Mingyue and said, "Fu Bo, it's time to settle the grudge between you and me."
Fu Bo said unconcernedly, "Two hundred years ago, you were a coward. I wiped out your entire He clan, and you hid underground for two hundred years. Now you're here to settle our feud. I'm curious, how do you want to end it?"
He Jun looked at Xu Ziling: "What about you? Two hundred years ago, Fu Bo sent people to hunt down your ancestors. I saved them. The Xu family swore to be loyal to me forever. What about you? Now that the enemy is right in front of you, are you still willing to help him?"
"I don't care about these at all. If you are talking about ancestors, isn't Fu Bo the ancestor of Fu Yueli and others? I just want to study immortality. I don't care about other things." Xu Ziling replied coldly.
