After a long time, when she thought the other party had fallen asleep, Qian Yeming spoke again.
"Xiao'er, I want to hear your story. I want to hear it now."
Murong Xiao looked up at Qian Yeming for a long time before asking, "What if that story isn't good?"
Qian Yeming stared at her firmly: "Even if it's not pleasant, I still want to listen. Tell me, okay?"
"Okay." Murong smiled and nodded. As long as it was his request, she would satisfy him unconditionally.
"Ming, do you believe in karma and reincarnation in this world?"
Qian Yeming nodded without hesitation and said, "I believe it."
"?" Murong Xiao looked up at him again in confusion.
"If there's no karma in this world, why is there the saying: 'Good is rewarded with good, evil with evil,' 'It's not that there's no retribution, it's just that the time hasn't come yet?' If there's no reincarnation, how do you explain your story?"
Murong Xiao stood up and asked in surprise, "You know?"
Qian Yeming sighed, "I don't know, this is just my guess. With your appearance, your understanding of everyone around me, and your understanding of the forces behind me, I've always suspected that you were a deity, or that you had the special ability to predict the future.
But through what happened today, I realized that you can also be hurt and your life can be in danger. You are not a god... It turns out that I guessed right?
I heard from the old people that the dead will cross the Naihe Bridge and drink Mengpo soup, but some people who truly love each other, in order to be together again in the next life, avoid the Mengpo soup that will make them forget everything, so that they can meet their loved ones again in the next life.
Xiao'er, is it because we were a couple in our last life and you didn't forget me that you came back to find me?"
Murong smiled and nodded, then lay down again, leaning in Qian Yeming's arms.
"Yes, we were a couple in love in our previous life. I haven't forgotten you and I came back to find you."
"That's great." Qian Yeming let out a long breath, his eyes filled with relief. Suddenly, a hint of apology ignited in his heart, "But I'm sorry, you still remember me, but I forgot you. But I swear, I will use the love of the rest of my life to make up for my forgetfulness in the last life."
After hearing Qian Yeming's words, Murong Xiao's heart was filled with happiness.
"Can you tell me our story?"
Murong Xiao took a deep breath and his thoughts returned to the entanglement of his previous life.
"Actually, this is my third time as a human being. I don't know why God is so kind to me, giving me the chance to be reborn again and again.
I was originally an orphan living more than a thousand years in the future. I grew up in an orphanage, and the director named me Gu Xiao. In the orphanage, I had a good friend named Gu Yan. We depended on each other and lived a difficult life.
Later, an organization took a fancy to us, took Gu Yan and me from the orphanage, and trained us to become the world's top agents. In this context, it means spies and killers.
Later, Gu Yan fell in love with a man, but that man had always loved me. Gu Yan betrayed me for that man. Just as I was dying, that man avenged me and killed Gu Yan. Then we fell off a cliff together and traveled back to the Nanyue Dynasty a thousand years ago.
When we woke up, we found ourselves in the secret room of the Marshal's Mansion and became killers imprisoned in the secret room by Murong Qingyu. My name was Murong Xiao, and her name was Murong Yan.
