Gu Jianlin realized that the heartbeat in his chest was accelerating and the flow of blood seemed to be accelerating. He knew that he was probably in love. The girl's alluring lips were so close that he wanted to kiss her.
In fact, since he learned profiling, he has carefully observed many people around him. Regardless of whether they are ugly or beautiful, men, women, old or young, he treats them all equally in his eyes. Some people say that he is like an enlightened monk. In fact, this is not an exaggeration. The appearance is just a hypocritical appearance. He will still be a pile of dry bones in a hundred years.
Occasionally, he will be deeply impressed by someone who is particularly beautiful.
Of course, it’s just for appreciation.
He won't let himself be tempted, feelings will only make him weaker.
Until Senior Ji's words made him start to seriously think about his emotional problems.
A girl's time is precious.
She likes you, how long do you want her to wait, until she is forty?
In comparison, that is true cruelty.
If you just want revenge, so what if you succeed in the end.
If everyone around you is gone, will the ending be what you want?
He wasn't sure.
He was a little shaken.
"Would you like to help me look at my eyes?"
Yue Ji tilted her head and pointed at her clear beautiful eyes: "I feel like there is something in my eyes."
As soon as Gu Jianlin leaned over, she raised her head and kissed him gently on the lips.
The girl's red lips were as soft as cherry blossom petals, and even had a hint of sweetness.
Before he could taste this sweetness, a surge of spirituality flooded into his mind.
He heard the thunderous dragon roar.
There is rarely such a majestic and angry dragon roar in the world, as if time and space have been shaken, going back crazily.
No, it is not time and space that is being retraced.
But cause and effect.
Everything is cause and effect.
Through the retrospective cause and effect, he was flooded with memories like a rainstorm. It turned out that they were all the moments when he and she got along. They had walked together on the undulating beach, sat opposite each other and enjoyed lunch in the school cafeteria, side by side. Sitting on the rooftop shrouded in the afterglow of the setting sun, watching the huge city shrouded in twilight.
Ever since his parents divorced, there has always been a girl by his side.
If you are away, you never show up.
Many times I would look at him from a distance for a long time, then turn around and disappear into the crowd.
Looking back in time, she wandered alone in the dark world, avoiding the pursuit of her family.
Often bruised and bruised, but moving forward without saying a word.
Fortunately, there was a man who stayed with her and taught her how to survive and fight.
Yue Ji opened her beautiful eyes wide, and seemed to realize that his cause and effect had been seen by him, and she instinctively wanted to run away.
Like a frightened rabbit.
But her waist was held by a pair of hands.
It's not like they never kissed.
The last time they kissed, Gu Jianlin was like a silent sculpture.
No matter how beautiful you are, I will not move.
This time was different, Gu Jianlin actually hugged her.
Unprecedented surprise and warmth enveloped her, and the surprise felt like seeing a Buddha statue blossom.
I don't know how long it took before they finally separated.
Yue Ji straightened the bath towel wrapped around her body expressionlessly, as if nothing had happened.
If you ignore the blush on your cheeks.
Gu Jianlin also seemed to wake up from a dream, feeling as if he had been possessed just now.
He suddenly realized something and asked softly: "By the way, you have never wanted to appear next to me with your true identity before. Is it because of the threat from the Jiang family that you don't want to repeat your father's tragedy?"
Yue Ji didn't even appear beside him at first, she always loomed like a shadow.
Gu Jianlin only knew that such a person existed, but did not know who she was.
It wasn't until the incident in Westport that she was forced to show up.
Even when she came to him, she still didn't want to reveal her true identity.
Yue Ji lowered her head and played with the corners of the bath towel, acquiescing.
After a long time, she calmly replied: "Whether it's me or my sister, we are all descendants of the Jiang family. Sooner or later they will come looking for us. Even if my sister has the protection of the Zong family and I have the protection of the Liu family, it will not help. The Jiang family is an ancient family inherited from ancient times, the unshakable throne of darkness."
"Putting aside the curse, I don't know how long I can stay with you. I promised the teacher to protect you, but I really don't have the ability to fight against the family. I don't have much time."
She turned around, rested her forehead on his shoulder, and whispered: "Who knew I would fall into it in the end? I felt very complicated at that time, and finally decided not to expose my identity in front of you."
"Why?"
"I'm afraid that if I disappear one day, you will come find me."
Neither brother nor sister likes to talk about what's on their mind, so it's rare for them to talk about this kind of issue and it's embarrassing.
Gu Jianlin felt happy in his heart. Fortunately, he found out early.
Yue Ji didn't expect that things would eventually develop to this point.
This guy's growth rate was not only shocking, he even transformed into the young master of the Si family, plunged into the Youying Group, and even made a deal with the real master of the dark world.
There is no turning back now.
He suddenly reached out his hand, rubbed her damp forehead, and smiled silently: "You are just worried that you can't accompany me, but you have never been afraid of the curse of the Suzaku clan?"
Yue Ji didn't resist, like a docile cat: "Of course I'm afraid."
Gu Jianlin was stunned.
Yue Ji raised her head, her beautiful eyes illuminated by the afternoon sun: "That is the real Ancient Supreme. Who is not afraid? I think you are afraid too, so I want to face it with you."
Because she had seen his desperate and helpless look on the viaduct, she made up her mind to stay by his side. It’s not that she didn’t know the terror of the Suzaku clan. The lingering power of the destructive power was still strong even after the battle. Suffocate her. But what can she do? It's the boy she raised with her own hands.
If she didn't stay with him, who else would be willing to stay with him.
She was just worried that she would be bound by her family and would no longer be able to accompany him.
It was rare for Gu Jianlin to feel her feelings, as if something was shaking in his heart.
"Are you sure you don't like your family?"
he asked seriously.
Yue Ji didn't even think about it and just hummed.
Gu Jianlin nodded slightly: "I may do one thing next. After this matter is over, you will no longer need to be tied down by the family. Now the status of the Si family and the recognition you have received are mostly just It’s a temporary illusion, but if we want to truly solve this problem, we have to start from the root cause.”
That person is Jiang Chunyang.
Yue Ji stared into his eyes and asked softly: "Are you doing this for me, or for me?"
There seems to be no difference before and after.
Gu Jianlin knew what she meant.
The former just helped her solve the dilemma she faced.
You can do this in many ways.
Like a brother, like a friend, like a comrade-in-arms.
The latter is to get her.
Only one identity can do such a thing.
That is lovers.
"No matter what it was for, I'm happy today."
Yue Ji stood up from the sofa holding a bath towel, her red lips slightly raised: "I'll go up and blow dry my hair."
Gu Jianlin stared at her leaving back, always feeling that there was something in her heart.

With a bang, the door to the room was gently closed.
Yue Ji leaned against the door and slid down silently, covering her hot face and feeling a little dizzy.
The great news is that Shitou seems to have finally come to his senses. The boy she raised has finally learned to kiss, and even learned to hold her waist. This kind of progress is amazing, and the future is promising.
She didn't dare to think about what the next step would be.
Even though they are just clones, their senses are shared.
The warm sunlight fell on her face, and her long and curled eyelashes trembled slightly, casting a shadow on her cheeks.
There were faint tears streaking across her face, dripping onto the floor.
She picked up a dressing mirror from the table and carefully pulled off the bath towel, revealing her round shoulders.
On the delicate collarbone, a red mark appeared at some point.
That is the mark of the Suzaku clan.
Since returning from Penglai Island, she has been having a recurring dream.
The endless rainstorm, the burning viaduct, the bloody boy in the ruins.
There are also gods that cover the sky and the sun.
This is the curse of the Suzaku clan. It had already been fulfilled on her body when she was seventeen years old. The symptoms were exactly the same as her mother's. The teacher had a similar dream some time before her death.
She didn't know why it came so quickly. It was obvious that there was some unknown secret behind the curse.
This is her biggest secret at the moment and she has not told anyone.
Not a word was said.

Gu Jianlin came to the sword dojo in the courtyard with a knife. The sun shined through the skylight on the bright mirror-like floor. Someone was in a daze on the boundary between light and dark. Her eyes were like a sea wave, spreading over the entire world.
Outside the door of the sword dojo were cherry blossoms. Hibari stared at the colorful falling cherry blossoms and remained silent.
I don’t know when she woke up.
"I just read your memories from this period of time, and I know everything."
Her long hair was swaying in the wind, and she said softly: "I'm not talking about you and your sister kissing."
Gu Jianlin remained silent. As expected, bad women are bad, and they still wanted to blame him at this time.
Of course she was referring to the things he had found out.
Things about her.
Although it was embarrassing to have his memory read, he was used to it.
It also saves him having to repeat it again.
"Do you want to trade?"
Gu Jianlin said expressionlessly: "Help me kill Jiang Chunyang."
Skylark silently turned around to look at him. Her stunning face was devoid of any makeup, yet it had a thrilling coldness and nobility. The blood-red eyes reflected the flying cherry blossoms, and there was blood in the enchantment.
"Um?"
Her eyes became brighter, as if she had a hidden edge.
"I will help you regain your strength and kill the ancestor of the Canglong."
Gu Jianlin raised the ancient sword and handed it to her silently.
Skylark glanced at him calmly, pulled out an ancient knife from the knife rest, and touched it lightly with him.
