Chapter 227 Stepping Stones in Variety Shows 22
"Long time no see...my...love~"
The man's voice was magnetic, carrying a mysterious power, as if it had traveled through time and space, filled with endless longing and affection.
Qingyu felt a chill run down her spine.
She glared at him warily and said coldly, "I don't know you. What kind of nobody dares to be my lover?"
Xie Zeyan wasn't angry; instead, his smile grew even gentler. He whispered a reminder, "Have you forgotten what you saw? Look how loving we are..."
“Those dreams and even memories are just your tricks!” Qingyu wouldn’t simply believe those images; she trusted her intuition more.
She hated the man in front of her.
Upon hearing this, Xie Zeyan's smile gradually disappeared, and his eyes turned cold. "Qingyu, you are always so stubborn."
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding air seemed to freeze.
Qingyu's heart skipped a beat. She had traveled through countless worlds and had nothing to rely on for survival. If she were attacked now...
She subconsciously mobilized the little strength she had left in her body, and even though she looked a little flustered, she still straightened her back.
"No matter what tricks you try, you won't have an easy time today."
Xie Zeyan gently shook his head and slowly raised his hand. In an instant, darkness surged towards Qingyu like a tide.
He seemed like a god who controlled everything in the darkness, and he was full of confidence in capturing Qingyu.
Qingyu could only quickly dodge to the side while trying to launch an attack towards the source of darkness.
However, the attack through the darkness had no effect.
"It's no use... Come with me... I love you..." The last few words were tinged with sorrow, making Qingyu feel even more depressed.
His strength waned, and his face grew increasingly grim.
Useless!
She doesn't seem to be able to hurt the other person!
Just when Qingyu thought danger was imminent, a white light flashed, dispelling the darkness.
A strange figure appeared before them, extending his hand to Qingyu, "Come with me."
Qingyu was taken aback. Although she was puzzled, she could only choose to believe him at this moment, so she took his hand.
The two vanished from their spot in an instant.
By the time "Xie Zeyan" realized what was happening, the person in front of him was gone. He turned his head abruptly to look—
Sure enough, there was no one left at Gu Qiwen's place!
His face was terribly gloomy, and after a long while, he could only grit his teeth and say, "It's you who ruined my plans again... I won't let you get away with this!"
His chest heaved violently with anger, his eyes filled with resentment.
-----------
"who are you?"
Compared to the man from before, this person in front of me...
Qingyu's impression of him was that she didn't dislike him, which was much better.
The man gave a bitter smile and slowly asked, "You... I am Siyu. It's normal that you don't remember me."
Siyu? The name was indeed unfamiliar, but Qingyu felt that Siyu had a familiar aura about her.
It was a kind of... different from Xie Zeyan's, but extremely friendly and amiable.
Just as she was about to ask a question, a sudden, sharp pain struck her, and her head felt like it was about to explode.
Countless images flooded her mind, images of her and Siyu fighting side by side, experiencing all sorts of wonders together in various worlds.
"What...what happened?" Qingyu crouched down, clutching her head in anguish.
Siyu quickly supported her, her eyes filled with worry. "You've received too many memories today... I'm sorry, Qingyu, I didn't want you to receive them prematurely either, but I don't have time, and the restriction he placed on you hasn't been completely lifted yet. I need to take you to a safe place now."
Qingyu tried hard to suppress the images in her mind, but she still couldn't immerse herself in them. She felt like an observer who had witnessed everything.
When she opened her eyes, her emotions were extremely complicated. Upon hearing this, she could only nod and say, "Lead the way."
Siyu breathed a sigh of relief, and then led Qingyu to a quiet courtyard. Strangely, this courtyard was exactly the same as the lakeside courtyard. The difference was that this place was filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, and was permeated with a faint spiritual energy.
The place was very comfortable to enter, but Qingyu felt a little uncomfortable; she seemed to prefer the darker elements.
"Where is this? My old place?" Qingyu wandered around, then reached out and touched the swing in the courtyard. The icy touch went straight to her bones, as if telling her that everything had changed.
“You guessed right, but this is an illusion… a corner of my world, and he can’t find it for now,” Siyu explained softly, her eyes filled with affection.
Seeing the swing, he laughed again, "This swing... don't sit on it, it's not sturdy, you said you were going to use it to scam people."
Qingyu: "...cough,"
This... is indeed something she's capable of doing!
Qingyu blushed slightly and awkwardly looked away. After gradually regaining her composure, she looked up at Siyu and asked, "Why don't I remember you at all? And what exactly did Xie Zeyan do to me?"
Siyu sighed, "He... is your old friend, and also my enemy."
At this point, Siyu seemed extremely restrained. He gritted his teeth and continued, "Do you remember Misu? He was originally your... friend. He had your mark on him. That man transferred Misu's mark onto himself..."
Qingyu understood and chuckled. No wonder she felt extremely close to that man, and even felt her heart flutter several times.
There really is a problem.
Thinking of this, Qingyu looked the person in front of her up and down, and said with a half-smile, "You're dodging my first question, so... what is your purpose?"
Although the other party seemed extremely friendly, Qingyu never trusted appearances.
Siyu was silent for a moment, then sighed deeply and smiled helplessly, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you... But your soul is unstable right now. If I tell you about the past, it might activate the seal within you, causing your power to become disordered..."
seal……
Qingyu's eyes flickered slightly. She had never known that there was a seal inside her body. The system had always kept silent, and this was the first time she had heard so much of the truth.
She couldn't help but feel a little teasing. She parted her lips slightly, looked at the person in front of her, and her eyes sparkled with a captivating charm. "You're not going to tell me I used to be some kind of tragic heroine in a romance novel, are you?"
The casual joke, like a gentle spring breeze, lightly brushed against Siyu's heartstrings, causing him to tremble for a moment.
He opened his mouth, then shook his head, then nodded, and finally said with a complicated expression, "Qingyu, believe me, I never intended to hurt you. Those memories are too unbearable and too shameful, and the damage they caused is something you can't bear right now."
These words were so serious that even though Qingyu was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but feel a little solemn.
After a long while, she withdrew her hand, looked outside, and said softly and calmly, "Take me back."
“If you go back now, he will still bother you.”
This refers to "Xie Zeyan".
Qingyu raised her eyebrows slightly, a blush rising at the corners of her eyes. Her shimmering eyes showed no fear, but instead she said, "Haven't you noticed? In this world, he can't hurt me, otherwise we wouldn't be able to escape."
Siyu opened her mouth, not expecting Qingyu to see this clearly, and felt a mix of emotion and sadness.
She has become increasingly powerful and cautious, and will no longer need him.
