After saying that, Shang Linyuan sealed Si Jin's lips with his own once again.
In no time, they forcefully pinned the person to the edge of the hot spring.
Her movements underwater created several splashing sounds, masking Si Jin's shallow breathing.
Breaths mingled, and the indoor temperature gradually rose.
The moment the bright red undergarment disappeared into the water along with Shang Linyuan's white shirt, Si Jin finally had a chance to speak.
"A-Yuan, why are you the same as me? Are you also... a woman?"
A single sentence, like a sharp sword slicing through a beautiful scene, instantly pulled the last vestiges of clarity from Shang Linyuan's heart.
Yes, he hasn't figured out the answer to that question yet.
How should he reply to Jinjin?
Should we continue lying, or...?
"No!" Shang Linyuan gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment, then gripped Si Jin's hand tightly and replied, "I am not a woman, and neither are you."
"It was your... your junior uncle who lied to you. You and I are the same, both being men."
Heaven knows how much courage it took for Shang Linyuan to say those words.
He thought: If Jinjin is born unable to distinguish her own gender, then he will continue to deceive her, even if it means going against the whole world to build a greenhouse for her.
But now, Jinjin has been deceived.
If he continues to tell this lie, how is he any different from Shang Qinghan?
Seeing that Si Jin remained silent for a long time, Shang Linyuan gradually began to panic.
Did he... say something wrong?
"Um, Jinjin," he hurriedly tried to salvage the situation, "Actually, style of dress is just a term, everyone is free to choose. You can wear whatever you like, I didn't mean to interfere with you at all, I just..."
"So, are A-Yuan and I destined not to be together?"
Shang Linyuan: ? ? ?
He didn't expect that Si Jin, after being stunned for so long, would actually utter such a sentence.
Not quite understanding, he asked, "Why?"
Si Jin's eyes didn't show much emotion; they remained empty: "Because Junior Uncle said that two men can't be together, it would make the other feel disgusted."
Because Shang Qinghan likes women and wants to make the original owner a replica of the original owner's mother, he has developed feelings for the original owner over the years.
But because I couldn't overcome that mental barrier, I felt increasingly disgusted by men being together.
The most egregious incident was when he caught two male disciples in the sect having a secret rendezvous and kissing. He immediately had them whipped eighty times and expelled from the White Moon Sect.
Since then, he vomited for ten days straight.
Therefore, while blurring the original owner's gender consciousness, he also deeply engraved this mentality into the original owner's mind.
Si Jin asked this question not because he was influenced by Shang Qinghan, but because he really wanted to hear Shang Linyuan's opinion.
By the way, let's make Shang Qinghan the target of everyone's hatred.
"That's not true." Shang Linyuan took two steps forward and gently pulled Si Jin into his arms. "Actually, in my eyes, there is no such thing as men and men, or women and women."
"It's just two people in love, what difference does it make?"
Si Jin lowered her eyes and nodded gently.
As expected of the person he chose, she never disappoints him.
So, what kind of death should he and A Yuan decide for Shang Qinghan?
As he was pondering this, he suddenly saw Shang Linyuan take out his outer robe and spread it out on the edge of the hot spring behind him.
You can touch it if you just step back slightly.
The next moment, Si Jin's body slowly rose into the air, and was actually held by the young man in front of her and placed on her outer robe.
"Jingjing," Shang Linyuan called out, his voice excessively pleasant, "It doesn't matter that we're all men. If you can't see, just behave for a while and close your eyes."
"Leave it to me."
Si Jin: "..."
So, was the outer garment placed on him to prevent him from getting cold lying directly by the hot spring?
But at this very moment, my eyesight actually started to deteriorate.
