Marriage Certificate
The discussion was fruitless. On the way from the Netherworld back to Heaven, Yuanli suddenly noticed that the figure flying hurriedly through the clouds was very similar to Cha Suxun.
If it really was him, he must have encountered some difficult situation, which made me a little worried.
"Emperor, the figure that just passed by looks like A-Cha. I want to follow and take a look."
"Um."
The two men followed Cha Suxun to a wild land. Before they came down from the clouds, they saw Cha Suxun fighting with a monster.
Yuanli immediately rushed to help, but the monster was so powerful that even a beginner in divine magic couldn't defeat it. Hengjin cast a spell to reveal the red rope, then quickly switched places with it while chanting a spell, then hid the red rope and joined the battle.
Soon, the monster was tied up by the Immortal Binding Rope with the cooperation of the two of them.
Cha Suxun shattered the monster's magic weapon, and the moment the jade hairpin appeared, Heng Jin's face changed. They both reached out to grab it, but it still fell into Cha Suxun's hands.
Heng Jin struck the monster unconscious, set up multiple barriers, and threw the monster out of them. Then she said to Cha Suxun, "I'm willing to exchange everything I have for this jade hairpin. Please state your terms."
"Alright, I want you to stay away from Yuanli forever, never meet her, never speak to her. As long as you agree, I will give it to you immediately. This is the only condition I want, no room for negotiation. Even if you have the title of the Six Realms God of War, as long as I set foot on the land, you can't try to snatch me away by force. You know this, otherwise you wouldn't choose to trade with me."
Cha Suxun looked at his awkward and hesitant expression and said sarcastically, "You're still the same old person. When faced with a choice related to her, you always hesitate."
"If you were me right now, you wouldn't hesitate."
"Of course I won't hesitate. I'm not like you. She will always be my first choice."
"The reason why you can say it so easily is because you have no idea what the function of this jade hairpin is! It's..." Looking at the disappointed Yuanli beside him, he felt very uncomfortable and stopped talking in time without saying the second half of the sentence.
"Let me help you finish the second half of your sentence. You mean to say that the function of this jade hairpin is to revive Li Wan or restore her lost memories, right? I know the function of the jade hairpin much better than you think."
"Of course you wish she could stay the same, but she's my wife! My first wife, the one I love and cherish! Even if she likes me, she still has to be your wife without hesitation! I watched helplessly as she clearly chose me, but because of a misunderstanding and concealment, she abandoned me and married someone else. Even if I tried my best, I couldn't keep her heart! Memory is my last straw, what choice can I make!"
This feeling of powerlessness almost drove him crazy.
"God has its own way. You have tasted the pain I went through back then. Why are you telling me all this? Are you expecting me to pity you and understand you? To give you the jade hairpin? Did you ever pity me or understand me back then? You knew very well that Li Wan was my betrothed, yet you still fawned over her like a drowned dog, seducing her away like a vixen. Obviously, before you showed up, she only clung to me and was best with me. When she was little, she often talked about wanting to marry Ah Cha as soon as possible. Obviously, without you, our marriage was an inevitable outcome. Obviously, without you, she might not have died. I watched helplessly as she abandoned me, walking step by step towards you, towards death. Even though I tried everything, there was nothing I could do."
Every word stabbed her heart like a knife. At this moment, she was completely disappointed in him.
I tried countless times to stop liking him, but I couldn't do it. At this moment, I did it.
"You are the least qualified person to find a jade hairpin for her."
"It's not up to you to decide whether it's suitable or not."
"Of course, I don't have the final say. If the entire Demon Realm and the Netherworld knew, they would also say you were unworthy. You said she was your first wife, but is your name ever mentioned in the records of her in the Demon Realm's history? The history only records me, the betrothed husband. The Lord's Order that everyone in the Demon Realm sees me as her still exists today. Have you ever thought about why? In the face of rumors and accusations, the best way to silence them is to marry her with a formal ceremony, not just a hasty ceremony with the newlyweds and the memorial tablets. She cares about this. For this reason alone, you will never be worthy of her."
After many years, Cha Suxun still felt angry when he talked about his debt to her.
"I don't intend to just let this go. I..."
Cha Suxun interrupted him impatiently, "That's enough. I don't want to hear you say this."
Walking up to Ah Li's side, he handed the jade hairpin to Ah Li and asked, "Can you keep it for me?"
"Aren't you afraid that if you give it to me, Heng Jin will snatch it away?"
He took her hand and placed the jade hairpin in her palm. He bent down to meet her eye level, a smile on his face. "I wish Heng Jin could snatch the jade hairpin from you."
"But why? You need the hosta too."
"You know why, Hosta isn't necessary for me, you are."
The hand he placed behind his back conjured up a red spider lily out of thin air. He swiped his right palm across the flower, and three silver butterflies the size of fingernails landed from his palm, landed on the petals, fluttered their wings, and shook off tiny silver spots of light, which was very beautiful.
"Take it home and place it by your bedside. The entire bedroom will be filled with the fragrance of red spider lilies. I've cast a spell on it to soothe the mind and aid sleep. Of course, the biggest purpose is for you to wake up and see it every day, and you'll think of me."
Yuanli accepted the red spider lily. Its fragrance always made her feel at ease, just like the smell of home, soothing away most of the irritability and sadness in her heart caused by her wild thoughts.
She had many questions she wanted to ask him, but she was too confused to ask them.
Cha Suxun asked her through telepathic communication, "Can you hug me? I miss you so much."
She nodded in response and he hugged her.
Leaning against her neck, he whispered, "Don't choose anyone else. Wait until I come home, okay?"
She hugged him back and patted his back with both hands without saying a word.
He hugged her tighter. "Don't let what you heard today fool you. I swear to heaven, my heart has always loved only you. As long as you're willing, I'll always be yours. If I tell you even a single lie, I'll be struck by lightning and die."
"good."
"I have to go back, Ari."
"I understand. Go back."
"Ari..."
"Why are you hesitating? If you have anything to ask, just ask directly."
In fact, Yuanli was not only saying this to him, but also to herself.
"Does the promise of getting married again on the road to the underworld still count?"
"count."
After getting the answer he wanted, Cha Suxun secretly mobilized most of the power of the underworld, holding her and teleporting back to the underworld sea of flowers on the other shore.
After releasing her, he began to cast a spell to condense the red threads floating in the sea of flowers. The red threads intertwined and soon, they wove into a marriage certificate.
He used the power of the underworld to sign the three words "Cha Suxun" on the marriage contract, and the moment he held the marriage certificate in front of her, her magic power had already condensed into her name on the marriage certificate.
He felt guilty and said, "I know you're willing to marry me out of gratitude. I'm sorry for taking advantage of this, but I'm afraid you'll make the same mistake and choose him, and get hurt again. Even if you blame me or are unhappy, as long as you can live your life in peace, that's all that matters."
"Is there something on my face? You keep looking at me."
"No, no." Cha Suxun changed the subject and asked, "Ah Li, can we not go through with the agreement and change the auspicious date so that we don't get married on the day I die and return to the netherworld? I want to give you the most grand wedding gift and prepare the betrothal gifts and everything else myself. Is that okay?"
"Can."
"Ari, you... aren't happy, right? I'm sorry..."
He lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake, carefully observing her reaction.
Yuanli knew that no matter how much she said, it would not be as reassuring as an actual response. Since she had chosen him, regardless of whether she accepted the marriage proposal out of favor or not, she should cherish and treat him as her fiancé.
She hooked her arms around his neck, closed the distance between them, and stood on tiptoes to kiss him deeply.
Only when their tongues intertwined did he dare to hug her.
She didn't end the kiss until their intertwined breathing became heavy and long.
He took back his arms from holding her, crossed them in front of him, and used his wide sleeves to cover the bulge.
His face flushed from his ears to his neck, his eyes filled with lust not daring to meet her gaze. He kept his head down and looked at his toes, the glistening liquid on his lips reminding him of their intimacy just now.
Just as she was about to wipe it off for him, before she touched his lips, he suddenly pursed his lips, and most of the liquid was absorbed by him. Her hand stopped in mid-air, and Cha Suxun's face became even redder.
He frowned in embarrassment and annoyance, and his head hung even more heavily.
She imitated his lost and apologetic tone and said back to him, "A-Cha, you... don't seem happy."
"No! I'm very, very happy!" He suddenly looked up and replied. The moment their eyes met, he quickly looked away.
Yuanli cupped his hot cheeks, "Look at me, A-Cha. I'm yours. Don't be embarrassed by the lust brought by intimacy, and don't hide from me. Besides..."
She lowered her voice and said, "Besides, I caught him on our wedding night, didn't I? Besides, he often stood up in the mortal world, didn't he? Don't think I was really asleep and didn't know anything."
"I always try to adjust my sleeping position, but why...Ari, I'm...I'm sorry."
"You're already very wary of me because you always hug me in the middle of the night, especially when you hug me from behind. You're so close that I can clearly feel him."
Cha Suxun was extremely embarrassed, afraid that she would think he was some lascivious person, so he quickly explained: "I really didn't know that I had a problem holding you when I slept. When I woke up in the morning, you were not in my arms. I... I was not..."
