Chapter 27: Past Memory

Yun Shu was thinking about how to make him wear this artifact a moment ago, it’s fortunate that he delivered himself to her door willingly and created an opportunity for her.

“Remember, no matter in what circumstances you are, never take off this artifact without my permission.” Yun Shu warned the mischievous guy as she got closer to him once again and whispered in his ears.

“If I see you take it off, make sure to be ready for the punishment.”

‘What can he even do? Does he think he can scare me?’

Bai Yunxian was secretly dissing Yun Shu in his heart, but nodded his head obediently in front of Yun Shu to show how fillial he was.

However, a chuckling sound came from the side as Yun Shu shoved her face even closer to Bai Yunxian mischievously, grinning from ear to ear.

“You think I don’t know what’s in your heart, dissing me secretly?”

In an instant, the expression on Bai Yunxian’s face changed dramatically as he feigned innocence, looking frail as he smiled and hid his face with his sleeves, “How, how could that be? I’m very happy and grateful for the gift lord gave me, I’ll be filial and make sure to fulfill my duties as the lord’s wife!”

“Is that so? Then you must listen to every word I say. As I said, if you take the earring off, then I don’t mind teaching you a lesson, kiddo.”

‘What the hell does he think he is, calling me kiddo? I can become your great grandfather, alright?’

Bai Yunxian’s thoughts were full of disdain towards Yun Shu, but he didn’t show them openly.

“Oh? Then, which punishment do you think I should give you? Should I ‘beep’ your ‘beep’ until you cry? Or… ‘beep’ your ‘beep’ to put off my anger? Eating. You. Up seems also plausible, don’t you think so?”

?!

‘W-what… What’s going on inside this perverts mind? How could he be so shameless as to say it all out loud?’

While Bai Yunxian went dizzy from the overly hot temperature within the room, Yun Shu smirked as she put him off on the chair and straightened her clothes, ready to start the day.

“Anyway, since you are going to become my woman, you must know that there are many dangers ahead for you. Do you still want to fulfill the contract? You still have time, so feel free to refuse. Don’t need to worry about the backing since I’ll fulfill my end of the bargain anyway.”

“…”

Bai Yunxian looked at Yun Shu for a while, then looked away.

“I don’t regret it. I’m ready to bear this responsibility.”

A faint smile painted Yun Shu’s face as she looked at Bai Yunxian’s determined face as she chuckled.

“Well, it’s not like I’m going to let you off to the battlefield, no need to be so nervous. Don’t forget that you are the soon to be bride of the strongest man within the kingdom. Just be yourself.”

Bai Yunxian was stunned to see the serene expression on Yun Shu’s face, he never expected to discover and see so many expressions of this man someday.

He was nothing but a cold, icy block of woods in his memories, what was the thing about him that changed?

“I know what I’m doing, no need to worry about that.” Bai Yunxian nodded his head.

“Well then, go get prepared. I also have works to do, see you soon.” Yun Shu gave him a gentle smile again before she let go of him.

“…”

Yun Shu was gone once again, without looking back juat like then. Bai Yunxian looked silently as Yun Shu left the room, his expression changed slowly as he saw the figure disappeared behind the doors.

It’s just like that day, he went back after they said goodbye to each other, and never came back…

The emotions Bai Yunxian felt wasn’t something he could describe in words, he could only put down his head and swallow the regrets deep within his heart.

At that time, this man helped him run away from the grasp of that bastard, Bai Yunxian hoped to cross paths with him for once again, someday, distant in the future.

Little did he know that it would be the last time he would ever get to see Yun Shu, right after half a year, news came in the kingdom that the dissected body of Yun Shu was found in a canal, as well as the fall of the Yun family.

Soon after that, a war broke out on the northern and southern border at once, and the defender of the borders was already gone, the Yun brothers joined the enemy army to destroy the kingdom and died on the battlefield.

At that time, I wasn’t able to do anything for him… but somehow, what I felt at that time was something rather strange.

As if something was missing, it broke my heart, but at that time, it was already too late.

Is that why you decided to leave me after that?

Did you take pity on me after going through countless rebirth once again, to give me another chance?

If so, then rest assured. Because this time, I must make sure to live up to your expectations… as I only have one wish.

‘Please, don’t abandon me again in this life… I’ll do whatever it takes if it’s the cost of standing side by side with you…

Only this once, give me a last chance… ‘

.

At this time, in this moment, Yun Shu didn’t know how she changed the future of an individual… and the butterfly effect that was going to follow after soon.

All she knew was that she was still living in a game world, with an aim to free the male lead.

She didn’t even know what kind of troubles were piling up one after another, waiting for her to jump in patiently.

***

Two hours later,

Yun Shu is done getting ready to go out, there is still a lot of work piled up for her to start and finish.
