After taking a bite, Tang Huaixiao nodded. “It’s quite delicious.”

It tasted different from the one made by the chefs at home.

Tang Huaixiao liked meat. Such delicious beef could satisfy her taste bud.

When she was full, she realized that her hands were greasy.

If Shi Jiu was not around, she would just wipe it casually. She wasn’t that particular, but now, she felt that it was inappropriate to wipe it casually in front of him.

Shi Jiu took out a handkerchief and went out. Soon, he returned. The handkerchief was already wet. Under Tang Huaixiao’s puzzled gaze, he picked up her hand and wiped her fingers clean, one by one.

For some reason, Tang Huaixiao felt her face heat up. She had never felt this way before.

Shi Jiu held Tang Huaixiao’s hand and walked out of the noodle shop. Of course, he had to pay. Even if the boss did not charge them, Shi Jiu still insisted on paying.

After going out, Tang Huaixiao did not feel so uncomfortable anymore.

Shi Jiu held her hand and walked slowly. The weather was cool, and nothing Tang Huaixiao had imagined happened.

When people saw her, they would be shocked and look at her, but that was all they did.

Some would even smile and ask. “Miss Tang, are you here to buy something? It’s free.”

This kind of att.i.tude made Tang Huaixiao feel very surreal. She waved her hand and said, “No, I’ll pay.”

Shi Jiu had a smile on his face. “Huaixiao, you haven’t gone shopping in a long time, right?”

Tang Huaixiao nodded. “Yes, it’s been long.”

After that incident, she realized that she was a misfit and never walked on the street again.

Even if she had grown up, the trauma from the past didn’t go away, but now she knew that many things were different.

The bad things were all gone.

Shi Jiu held Tang Huaixiao’s hand and said, ”1 heard that the festival will be very lively. Huaixiao, you should go out more. There are so many beautiful sceneries. It would be a pity not to take a look.”

Hearing the sadness in Shi Jiu’s tone, Tang Huaixiao did not know how to comfort him. She said awkwardly, “Actually, the scenery is not that amazing.” Shi Jiu asked. “Have you seen it?”

Tang Huaixiao pursed his lips. “I don’t enjoy it much.”

Shi Jiu chuckled. “Then, that means you haven’t seen it before.”

Tang Huaixiao had to admit, “No, I haven’t.”

Perhaps in the past, she was interested in looking at nature and other beautiful things, but that interest was long gone. She did not want to be treated like a monster by others.

Shi Jiu said calmly, “Huaixiao, you have to travel around more often in the future for me.”

Hearing this, Tang Huaixiao felt a little sad.

She said nothing.

There was a sweet shop by the street. Shi Jiu bought some pastries and gently fed them to Tang Huaixiao. She had no choice but to open her mouth.

Shi Jiu asked, “Huaixiao, is it sweet?”

Tang Huaixiao’s mouth was filled with sweetness. She nodded. “Yes.”

There was so much sugar. How could it not be sweet?

Shi Jiu’s voice was a little hoa.r.s.e. “Is that so? Then, can I try it?”

Tang Huaixiao nodded subconsciously. “Sure, if you want to…”

Then, her mouth was sealed…

Tang Huaixiao felt as if she was frozen and could not move. The entire world was quiet. She was completely stunned.

Her heart was beating crazily, she was frightened.

Her mind told her that she should push the person away.

However, her hands did not seem to have the strength. She felt a little dizzy.

The kiss was warm and pa.s.sionate, making her unable to move or think.

Until she heard the sound of clapping and cheering.

Not only was Tang Huaixiao shocked, but so were the people who came and went.

However, when they came back to their senses, the people began to clap and cheer. “Miss Tang, congratulations.”

“Miss Tang, if he doesn’t treat you well after marrying you, you have to tell your brother to beat him up.”

The crowd cheered her loudly.

Shi Jiu had already let go of Tang Huaixiao. He held her hand and took her away. Tang Huaixiao forgot how strong she was and was pulled away like a little kitten. She even forgot to think.

The noise gradually subsided. Unknowingly, she had already been pulled to the top of the city gate. Shi Jiu said something to the soldiers on guard. The soldiers smiled at them and left.

Shi Jiu returned to her side and held her hand as they walked over.

Tang Huaixiao’s palms were wet.

Shi Jiu wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and whispered into her ear. “Huaixiao, this is the city gate. You can see the scenery of the three countries. You must have seen it countless times. I want to see all the places you’ve seen. I also want you to see the scenery I’ve never seen before.”

Tang Huaixiao felt a lump in her throat. “Shi Jiu.”

Shi Jiu looked into the distance and said softly, “Huaixiao, listen to my story.”

Tang Huaixiao felt a lump in her throat and a heartache in her heart. She wanted to comfort him, but she did not know where to start.

She heard Shi Jiu’s voice, like the wind, gently brushing past her ears.

“Strictly speaking, I’m not considered a human. I’m just a wisp of consciousness. When I woke up, all I knew was that I had to survive.”

“In order to live, I’ll do anything. It was a coincidence that I met you, but I was the one who schemed to get close to you because I wanted to live. Huaixiao, I’m despicable.”

“I fell in love with you, which isn’t what I’m supposed to do because I’m just a puppet. I want to replace him. I want to marry you. Before I saw Miss Liu, I already knew who the owner of this body was. He’s asleep and will wake up when it’s safe to do so. No matter what, I can’t replace him.”

Shi Jiu’s voice was a little hoa.r.s.e, and his eyes were dim.

He was not afraid of death, but he wanted to do something for the woman he loved before he died.

Tang Huaixiao felt a little sad. “Shi Jiu, I…”

Shi Jiu whispered into Tang Huaixiao’s ear, “Shh… listen to me.”

Tang Huaixiao gritted her teeth and fell silent.

The wind blew past, blowing Tang Huaixiao’s hair up. Their hair seemed to be intertwined at this moment. Shi Jiu smiled. “Huaixiao, let’s make an agreement..”
