Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Xijiu had been full of surprises since the beginning. He could hardly handle it anymore! He ground his teeth with rage. If her life were not at stake, he would have left her. This woman had made her appearance in so many different forms. What did she want, exactly?

She appeared and disappeared so mysteriously every time. When he intended to search for her, she never showed up. When he gave up on her, she suddenly reappeared. He could not figure out how he truly felt about her. There was a mixture of joy and rage, also some elements of hatred and surprise. He was overwhelmed with a strong wave of emotions. He could not pinpoint exactly how she made him feel. He only knew that he must keep her alive. Saving her life was the priority.

He was obsessed with hygiene, so he hated it when others came too close to him. However, he did not have the same att.i.tude towards her. Sometimes, he would even wish to pull her close into his embrace to caress and protect her. He even kissed her when he was desperate to help her swallow the pill.

He had set his heart to save her life, so he did not consider many other things. He would not rest until she was conscious and finally found the strength to sit up. He had even contributed his first kiss in order to save her life. That was a huge sacrifice because he once hated this woman the most.

His mother had once told him that his first kiss must be reserved for the one he liked the most. Only then it would become a pleasant memory. His father and mother kept their first kisses for one another. As for his, he submitted it so casually. Was he being possessed? Was he not thinking straight?

Shen Nianmo was oppressed with the thought, so he had to vent his anger on the snakes. He knew that Gu Xijiu wanted the snakes alive, so he killed them on purpose in order to go against her wish. Surely, Gu Xijiu was not sure of all the thoughts that were going on in his head. Meanwhile, she was focusing entirely on the bracelet.

She roughly remembered that the bracelet used to be in the shape of a small dragon. The bracelet was formed when its head was a.s.sembled to the tail. Probably, there would be an opening mechanism somewhere. She was looking for the lock, hoping that she could get the bracelet off his wrist.

Gu Xijiu did not want to owe anyone favors. Shen Nianmo had saved her life, so she would do anything to fulfill his requests. After a long time, the bracelet was still very much intact, even though she had tried many different ways to open it. There was not even a single crack.

She tried to pull the bracelet off, but it could not go past his wrist. It really was not meant to be taken off. Moreover, it had even grown bigger to suit the size of his hand as he became older. It fitted him just right.

Gu Xijiu kept trying, but nothing worked; Shen Nianmo’s hand started to sweat. She resigned with a sigh. “I am sorry; there really is no way.”

She looked up and froze momentarily. Their eyes met as soon as she raised her head. His eyes were staring fixedly at her face.

Gu Xijiu took a step back. Intuitively, she tried to touch her face and realized that her mask had been taken off. He was looking straight at her face right now. She knew that she had a beautiful face, but he did not seem amazed by her beauty.

She was uncomfortable under his intense eyes, so she took another step back and asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“How many ident.i.ties do you actually have? How many times have you showed up in front of me?” Shen Nianmo continued to stare at her.

Gu Xijiu frowned in bewilderment. “Only these two. What do you mean by how many ident.i.ties?”

“Two? As far as I am concerned, there are three.”

Gu Xijiu failed to recall. “Three? Which was the third one?”
