Chapter 159: Secret
When a woman identifies someone in her heart, she will slowly open her heart to him and will no longer try to hide secrets.
Shen Xizhen remembered the mission he had crossed over, and when he thought that he would leave Chu Zihou forever in another seventeen years, his heart ached like flesh and blood.
In the past, Chu Zihou asked her more than once: "Why do you always call yourself a hurried passer-by in the world?" She replied, "Because the world is impermanent, so is life." She knew that he was as smart as he was, but she had always had doubts about her background, but she didn't know how to unravel the veil of mystery. And out of respect, he never gets to the bottom of it.
Now, for the first time, she wanted to confess the secret to him.
It's just that I don't know how to say it.
But she didn't want to keep it a secret from him.
So she said, "Zihou, I have something to tell you." β
Chu Zihou smiled brightly and responded, "Okay, I'll listen." β
But when he was really about to speak, Shen Xizhen hesitated again, would he believe such an unbelievable thing?
"What if I say...... I'm not from this dynasty, I'm just someone who crossed over here by chance, can you believe it? Shen Xizhen looked at him and asked.
Chu Zihou was slightly stunned.
He had long found that some of Shen Xizhen's ideas did not seem to be derived from the historical background of this dynasty. But his suspicions turned into suspicions, and he couldn't find a more reasonable explanation, so he didn't delve into it, just thinking and seeing that she was a little different from others. Although he didn't know what was behind her mysterious identity, he intuitively felt that she was not a bad person. So he believed her.
What is the concept of traversal?
It was the first time he had heard the word.
"You mean - you came here from another dynasty?" Chu Zihou asked curiously, he also wondered why he didn't feel a little panicked when he heard this.
Shen Xizhen nodded.
Chu Zihou looked at her steadily, with delicate facial features, bright eyes, and elegant manners. She doesn't look like a demon, a ghost, or something, and if he really wants a reason to believe it, then maybe she's from the fairy world.
But it's still a bit of a bizarre.
People in the fairy world generally go down to earth to repay their kindness or to find someone who is destined, what is she for?
"You start with...... Where did you cross over? Chu Zihou asked.
"From the modern age, which is at least 3,000 years away." Shen Xizhen replied.
When she said this, she suddenly felt a lot lighter in her heart.
Chu Zihou was suddenly startled.
No wonder she knows so much, it turns out that she has absorbed three thousand years of wisdom more than them.
"Why are you here?" Chu Zihou had already calmed down, so his thoughts were particularly clear, and he quietly asked again.
"I want to come and see this dynasty. By the way, see what you can do to help. β
"Then you helped Xi Guo come up with so many measures to rejuvenate the country and enrich the people?" The smile in the corner of Chu Zihou's eyes became deeper and deeper.
"Yes, and I also met you unexpectedly and gained love." Shen Xizhen smiled sweetly at him and said.
"Because you have made the people of Xi gain so much. Heaven will also let you gain something, and that's fair. Chu Zihou said with a smile.
Shen Xizhen glanced at him coquettishly and said, "But at the beginning, I wasn't going to leave feelings here, because I knew that I would have to leave sooner or later. I don't want to make others sad. β
"But you met me anyway. Moved emotionally. Chu Zihou smiled and kissed her.
"Yes, I didn't expect to meet you, and I can't control my heart to get closer to you."
Chu Zihou stretched out his hand and hugged her, put his chin on her forehead, and asked in a low voice, "Then it was purely an accident to meet me?" β
"Not exactly, I had divination before I met you, and the spiritual divination indicated that I would meet someone who meant a lot to me in the Plum Garden area in the north that day, so I went to the Plum Garden."
"And at that time, all you know is that this person means a lot to you. But I don't know what it means, and I don't know that he will be the person you fall in love with at first sight. Chu Zihou said with a smile on his face.
Shen Xizhen pushed him away. Coquettishly said: "Who fell in love with you at first sight?" His face suddenly turned red.
"Isn't it? Although I look at you through the curtain, I don't know why I can see your eyes clearly, if it is not for the good feeling in my heart, why do you show such surprise and joy at the moment you see me? Chu Zihou hugged her tightly and asked.
"It turns out that you have seen it a long time ago, but at that time, you were still talking to me so quietly and seriously." Shen Xizhen pretended to be angry and said.
Chu Zihou laughed.
This girl, it turned out that he was angry that he didn't show enough enthusiasm at that time! But if he was too enthusiastic at that time, wouldn't she be mistaken for a disciple? He remembered the scene when he held her hand tightly and she skillfully let it out of his, and she didn't resist his enthusiasm.
Chu Zihou grabbed her slender jade hand and said, "I was actually quite enthusiastic at the time, didn't you dodge?" β
"Yes, but you can chase it again." Shen Xizhen said with a red face.
"You want me to chase after you? But I really wanted to open the curtain and chase in. Chu Zihou laughed again, and couldn't help but lean over to kiss her on the lips.
Shen Xizhen just wanted to say something, but his mouth was sealed.
After a long time, Chu Zihou stopped kissing her and asked, "Ah Zhen, how long will you stay in this dynasty?" β
"Thirty years in all, and now thirteen years have passed."
Chu Zihou's expression was silent. Well, he and she have seventeen years to get along.
"Can you not leave then?" Chu Zihou kissed her cheek and asked, the warm breath on her cheeks and ears made her feel numb, and her body couldn't help but soften.
But the reality is cruel, she has always known. She couldn't let herself stay, because it was the system manipulating YiqiΔ, so she had to leave when the time came, no matter how reluctant she was.
Her tears fell, and she pressed her face tightly against his chest.
"Zihou, I also want to stay, but I can't decide whether I want to stay."
"Didn't you come here of your own free will?" Chu Zihou was a little surprised.
Shen Xizhen didn't know how to answer. If she really told SΓΉ about that crossing mission, would it have an impact on her completing the mission? Her mind was racing.
After thinking about it, she felt that he was the most trustworthy person for her, so she decided to tell him the ins and outs of the matter.
When she said this to him, she felt relieved, but he didn't say a word, just hugged her tightly.
Now, he finally understood why she was so desperate to help Xi Guo, and he finally understood the pressure she was under in her heart.
However, he loved her even more.
Before, he never thought that his other half would be such a person, but because of this, he had to accept this reality even more quickly. (To be continued......)
