Chapter 185 Only Shen Pingjin Remembers
Seeing that Shen Pingjin had woken up, Lu Qingjia quickly brought over the tea from the coffee table next to her and handed it to Shen Pingjin.
"Sister, you've been unconscious for several days now. We're back in Kyoto now!"
"What?! You're back in Kyoto?!"
Shen Pingjin was still a little dizzy, but she took the glass of water and slowly drank it.
Hearing Lu Qingjia's words, he almost vomited the water he had drunk.
Lu Qingjia was a little confused: "Sister, don't you remember? We've already returned from Kyoto."
"I, you, you're not..."
Lu Qingjia was very puzzled. "Sister, after you fainted that day, that wicked brother was very anxious. He took out a sword and rescued both of us from the Phantom Pavilion."
"I don't know why, but I fainted and then woke up all of a sudden. But you, sister, haven't woken up yet."
"Until today, Jiajia was playing in the front hall and kept hearing you calling out 'water, water,' so she quickly ran over. She didn't expect that her older sister really wanted to drink water."
Shen Pingjin couldn't believe it. She clearly remembered that Lu Qingjia had entered that space with her, but why did it seem like he had forgotten what happened back then...?
"Jiajia, do you remember what happened in the Phantom Pavilion?"
"Sister, of course Jiajia remembers."
Lu Qingjia continued, "Back then, you and Jiajia were locked in that room by that wicked woman. That wicked woman kept telling us not to struggle and that no one would come to save us. But you didn't expect that, did you!"
Lu Qingjia's face showed a proud expression, "My bad brother was still very reliable at that time. Back then, he was holding a sword that was radiating light, and he just kidnapped us. I heard that the young master of the Phantom Pavilion was furious!"
"I remember they wanted to kill me, but said they couldn't let me die too easily. Who would have thought, but that's why Jiajia came back safe and sound!"
Seeing that Lu Qingjia didn't mention entering the Chaos Space at all, Shen Pingjin couldn't believe it.
"Jiajia, do you remember seeing your sister in a very, very dark place?!"
He thought he would get Lu Qingjia's approval, but to his surprise, Lu Qingjia shook his head in confusion.
“Pretty sister, nothing like that happened. You and Jiajia have been locked in a small room the whole time. We haven’t been anywhere else.”
Shen Pingjin stared intently at Lu Qingjia's porcelain-white face, trying to find a hint of something unusual in his expression.
But no.
Suppressing her doubts, Chen Pingjin gave a soft "hmm" and said nothing more.
Seemingly sensing that something was wrong with Shen Pingjin, Lu Qingjia frowned and asked, "Sister, what happened back then?"
The boy's voice was childish, and he didn't seem to be lying.
Shen Pingjin forced a smile: "Jiajia, nothing happened. Your sister was with you the whole time, so naturally she went through the same things as you."
Upon receiving Shen Pingjin's response, Lu Qingjia chuckled, "Sister, you're not feeling well, you should rest first. Jiajia needs to tell this good news to Bad Brother, after all, Bad Brother has been thinking about you!"
Shen Pingjin had always known that the villainous brother Lu Qingjia mentioned was Yan Jue. She frowned slightly and asked, "Back then, was it Yan Jue who saved us both?"
Lu Qingjia nodded, looking on with admiration. "Yes, it was the bad boy who saved us. Sister, you don't know, he was incredibly handsome back then."
"Jiajia originally thought that the bad brother was not good enough for you, but now she thinks that you and the bad brother are a perfect match."
Chen Pingjin: "..."
This kid changes his expression faster than turning the pages of a book.
Shen Pingjin smiled, grabbed Lu Qingjia's sleeve, and stopped him from leaving. "When I was with you, did you say that the bad brother suddenly broke down the door with a glowing sword and took us away?!"
Lu Qingjia thought Shen Pingjin was regretting that she had fainted and missed it, and her eyes were full of stars as she said, "Yes, pretty sister, the bad brother stood up with a sword at the time, and later I heard the bad brother say that it was that sword that saved us."
"Yan Jue said that it was that sword that saved us?!"
Chen Pingjin's voice suddenly rose.
Lu Qingjia nodded and said, "Yes, sister, I remember I didn't mishear."
"So that's how it is..."
"Sister, did Jiajia say something wrong?"
Seeing Shen Pingjin's tightly furrowed brows, Lu Qingjia's eyes seemed to be misty, as if she was about to cry at any moment.
Shen Pingjin has always been very soft-hearted when it comes to Lu Qingjia.
She quickly shook her head and said, "Jiajia, you didn't say anything wrong. It's my problem."
"Sister, what's the problem? Can you tell Jiajia?"
The mist that had just been gathering in Lu Qingjia's eyes vanished instantly. Shen Pingjin smiled helplessly and nodded, saying:
“If Jiajia wants to know, there’s no reason for me not to tell her.”
Under Lu Qingjia's expectant gaze, Chen Pingjin slowly spoke.
“Jiajia, it’s like this. Although I still remember being locked in the room with you, I don’t remember anything after that.”
Seeing Lu Qingjia's wide-open mouth, Shen Pingjin continued, "Anyway, Jiajia, I was attracted to a place by an unknown force. It was pitch black, and I felt like I saw a lot of things inside, but then I woke up."
"Then I opened my eyes and there you were, bringing me water and telling me that we had returned to Kyoto."
Seeing Lu Qingjia's stunned expression, Shen Pingjin knew that she had spoken too quickly and that he might not have understood what she meant.
Oh well, maybe it really was just a dream.
However, Shen Pingjin would not forget it. She would try to find out how to activate the Chaos Space and let it take her in.
"Jiajia, you can go now. I'm tired and want to rest."
Shen Pingjin pretended to yawn, and Lu Qingjia quickly said "okay" and got off the bed with a gurgle.
As soon as the door opened, Lu Qingjia's pupils widened slightly, as if she was somewhat surprised.
However, he didn't make a sound at all. He just paused for a moment, then opened the door and went out.
"Squeak—"
The door was closed.
Shen Pingjin buried her head in the quilt, unable to understand what was going on.
She clearly remembered that Jiajia and she were both sucked into that chaotic space.
