Chapter 183 Shen Pingjin saw her mother
"Why...why don't you just kill me?"
Shen Pingjin glanced at Yan Jue, who was fighting with the two, and decided to buy herself some time.
At the same time, his desire to practice martial arts became even stronger.
Hua'er wasn't stupid; she naturally saw the hesitation in Shen Pingjin's eyes.
But isn't it the most fun to just play along with her without exposing her true intentions?
"Because our young master said that if we are to capture you, we must capture you alive."
"I, Hua'er, am generally not one to be ruthless towards beauties. Regent's Consort, you don't even know how to hold a sword, so you might as well come with me obediently."
"No, no!"
Hua Er raised an eyebrow, and without waiting for Shen Pingjin's consent, took Shen Pingjin's hand and walked inside.
Lu Qingjia was still in the room when he heard the noise outside. Somewhat puzzled, he went to the door.
But in that one glance, he saw it!
"Sister Xiaojin!"
He saw his little sister Jin being grabbed and collapsing helplessly outside the door.
Although it was just a glance, a glimpse of her back, Lu Qingjia could tell that it was Shen Pingjin.
He would never admit his mistake!
Just as Hua'er was about to grab Chen Pingjin, the brocade in her hand suddenly emitted light.
Hua'er was so startled by the sudden light that she couldn't help but close her eyes. Chen Pingjin felt a warmth spread from her limbs to her heart, and the feeling of being drawn into the chaotic space came back to her.
But this time...
It seems a little different.
"Sister Xiaojin!"
Shen Pingjin felt as if she were in complete darkness.
Suddenly a voice reached her ears, causing her to involuntarily open her eyes.
What came into view was Lu Qingjia running towards him.
"Jiajia!"
The two embraced, tears welling up in their eyes instantly. Shen Pingjin looked around in disbelief. This time, there was no mother, but Lu Qingjia.
Is the Jiajia in front of me, just like my mother, a fake?
But the feeling of embracing it was so real.
Are you really Jiajia?
Shen Pingjin couldn't help but ask.
Lu Qingjia was also puzzled by his appearance in this position, but he nodded and said, "Sister, I am Lu Qingjia."
Seeing Shen Pingjin's somewhat bewildered look, Lu Qingjia recounted what had just happened.
Shen Pingjin finally believed it: "So that's how it is..."
In other words, it was the light emanating from Chu Jin that attracted the two of them?
Shen Pingjin frowned slightly, deciding to ask Lu Qingjia a good question.
"Jiajia, how exactly were you arrested?"
This is a problem that has been troubling Shen Pingjin for a long time.
Lu Qingjia felt a little guilty. If he told the truth, would his sister be angry?
However, upon seeing Chen Pingjin's serious expression, Lu Qingjia knew that if he didn't tell the truth, his beautiful sister would probably ignore him for a long time after returning to the capital and asking his father what had happened.
After a brief internal struggle, Lu Qingjia decided to tell the truth.
After listening to his words, Shen Pingjin frowned more and more. In the end, she couldn't help but give him a sharp rap on the head.
“Jiajia, you need to know that your identity is special. You don’t need to come here at all. In your sister’s heart, as long as you stay in Kyoto, that is your way of missing me.”
Lu Qingjia couldn't help but shed tears: "Sister, I'm sorry..."
Shen Pingjin couldn't bear to see Lu Qingjia lose her pearls. "Alright, I'm not trying to be mean to you, but next time something like this happens, you absolutely mustn't sneak out, okay? I heard that General Lu and the others have been looking for you like crazy."
"Jiajia, do you really want us all to worry about you?"
Lu Qingjia shook her head: "No, Jiajia didn't mean any harm, Sister Xiaojin, I'm sorry..."
Shen Pingjin rubbed Lu Qingjia's head: "It's okay. When your sister takes you back to the capital, you must personally apologize to General Lu and the others, okay? Otherwise, when your sister's glass shop opens, you won't be able to go out and eat delicious food with your sister."
Upon hearing that she couldn't eat delicious food, Lu Qingjia's tears fell even harder.
"No, Sister Xiaojin, absolutely not! Jiajia's favorite thing is eating the food at Sister Xiaojin's Glass Shop!"
Upon seeing Lu Qingjia drop the little pearl, Shen Pingjin's heart softened instantly, and she couldn't bring herself to say anything harsh.
"Then you must remember to admit your mistake obediently, otherwise General Lu will put you in solitary confinement again, and that's something even your older sister can't control."
"Okay, Jiajia will listen to Sister Xiaojin!" Lu Qingjia was instantly happy when she heard that Chen Pingjin had given in.
"But... Sister Xiaojin, where is this place? Why are we two suddenly here?"
This was the first time Lu Qingjia had ever been to a place where it was dark all around, yet she could see clearly in the darkness. Her big eyes blinked, full of curiosity.
"Well... actually, my sister isn't quite sure either."
This was her second time visiting this space, and Shen Pingjin didn't know what circumstances could trigger its appearance.
"Sister, Jiajia has been locked in her room. If we get out of here, where do you think I'll appear?"
Lu Qingjia didn't want to be locked in that dark and damp room anymore.
Shen Pingjin sighed, "The last time I came in, I moved directly from outside the door to inside, so where I will go out is completely random."
"Sister, it's me, Jiajia, Jiajia's head hurts so much..."
"What, you have a headache?"
Shen Pingjin looked at Lu Qingjia, who had been perfectly fine, but suddenly frowned, and felt a deep sense of worry.
Shen Pingjin wanted to touch Lu Qingjia's head, but as soon as she touched it, her whole body stiffened.
That feeling... it's back again!
Shen Pingjin felt as if she had turned into a ray of white light.
Just like in my previous life, I seemed to be a shimmering white soul, able to see many scenes that my physical body could not.
Of course, others can't see themselves either.
However, it was different from my previous life; the scene I saw was... very strange?
It was pitch black all around, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, except for a crescent moon hanging overhead.
Shen Pingjin looked down at her embroidered shoes, then glanced at the woman tinkering with something not far away, and was startled.
Isn't this her mother?!
This time, Mother was dressed differently than before. She wore a gray-green outfit, had an orange headband, and her hands and face were covered in mud. She was holding a shovel and digging in the mud.
Shen Pingjin walked over curiously.
"Damn, being a tomb raider is so hard."
As soon as I walked to my mother's side, she suddenly stood up, cursing angrily.
