I Want to Learn More About Mei's Past
"However, something about what you said sounds a bit strange."
Lin Shuang lay on the shore, staring intently up at Acheron as he changed clothes.
It has to be said.
Acheron, whose proportions were already beautiful, looked even more stunning with her long legs from this angle.
After changing into his swimsuit, Acheron turned to the side, adjusted the position of his swim trunks by hooking his fingers on the edge, and looked down into Lin Shuang's eyes.
And the phone that Lin Shuang was holding in her hand, with the camera pointed at her.
What are you looking at?
"Because you're good-looking."
Click--
Lin Shuang made no attempt to hide the fact that she was secretly taking pictures of Acheron in his swimsuit.
Then Acheron squatted down, pressed her head down, and snatched her phone.
The first photo in the album is a candid shot I just took of myself.
The sideways pose perfectly accentuated Acheron's beautiful figure, while the way her fingers hooked and pulled at the edge of her swim trunks added to her allure.
The upward-looking perspective further accentuates Acheron's remarkably perfect legs.
"..."
Acheron suppressed Lin Shuang with one hand and silently looked at the Photos for a while.
However, the Photos was actually quite good; even Acheron nodded in satisfaction.
Then I sent a copy of the Photos to my phone.
"Hey, it's time to let me go."
Lin Shuang, whose head was pressed down by Acheron, couldn't lift her eyes and could only see Acheron's lower body as he squatted down.
It made it difficult for her to look around.
"Um..."
Acheron responded and was about to release Lin Shuang when his finger slipped.
The phone screen then displayed a photo of me with Firefly.
"Um?"
Acheron's expression changed slightly. He swiped his finger again and found many more Photos, all of them of him with Firefly, or Photos Firefly.
"Is this the one who controls Stellaron Hunter Sam?"
Acheron put the phone down, and the screen Firefly, who was smiling and playing with fireworks, with her arms outstretched towards the camera.
"Ah, um... yes, that's her."
Although her tone was normal, Lin Shuang seemed to be under a lot of pressure for some reason.
"She's quite a pretty young girl, but she doesn't quite match the image of that Stellaron Hunter."
As Acheron spoke, he released Lin Shuang, then got up and sat by the Hot Spring, only dipping his legs into the water.
Lin Shuang also took the opportunity to get up and quickly sat down next to Acheron to avoid being suppressed by her with one hand again.
She tried to reach for her phone, but Acheron dodged her grabbing hand.
"What?"
Lin Shuang was completely bewildered by Acheron's question.
This is my phone!
What do you want me to do?
However, Acheron seemed not to see Lin Shuang's accusing gaze, and raised his hand to grab Lin Shuang's wrist and press it down.
Then she looked down and continued looking at the Photos of Lin Shuang's date with Firefly.
Seeing this, Lin Shuang simply put it down too. "Look, look," she thought, "It's just some swimsuit Photos. What's so interesting about them?"
After waiting for a while, Acheron suddenly spoke:
"Aren't there any new accessories this time?"
"Ah?"
Lin Shuang was stunned for a moment, and when she turned to look at Acheron, she realized that she was talking about her Ritual.
Why wasn't it held together with the Firefly event this time?
Moreover, his tone was very calm, as if he were asking if she had eaten lunch.
"No, we just came out for a stroll. Besides... don't you dislike it?"
"..."
Acheron shook his head slightly, handed the phone back to Lin Shuang, and said:
"That's how you gain power, and I do care a little, after all, the Ring has special meaning in my hometown. But you don't need to worry too much about my thoughts."
"You've regained some of your Remembrance?!"
Lin Shuang didn't think too much when she heard this. Her first reaction was whether Acheron's amnesia had improved. But it was also possible that Acheron still remembered some things from before.
The joy and worry in his voice were impossible to hide.
Seeing Lin Shuang like this, Acheron's lips unconsciously curled into a smile:
"I have remembered some more, but not many."
"Yay!"
While Lin Shuang was happy for Acheron, she also realized that Acheron would probably become stronger as a result.
Volume 1: Chapter 224 Wanting to know more about Gepard's past
Emerging from the Hot Spring.
Lin Shuang and Acheron were both soaking in the water until their bodies were red and steaming.
"Let's go, after soaking in the Hot Spring, let's go get a drink."
Lin Shuang and Acheron didn't change out of their swimsuits; they simply dried themselves off, put on a jacket, and went to the bar.
"There's another bar? This Spaceship must be expensive."
Acheron casually picked out a bottle of liquor that Lin Shuang didn't recognize from the bar, then poured himself a drink and started drinking.
"I don't know, Firefly booked it, but it must have been quite expensive."
Seeing this, Lin Shuang didn't take her own cup, but instead handed it over, indicating that Acheron should also have a cup.
What kind of wine is this?
"It's a kind of wine... that tastes somewhat similar to the one from my hometown, but it has a higher alcohol content, so please drink less of it."
Acheron held up the wine bottle and poured Lin Shuang only a small half-glass.
Lin Shuang didn't mind, leaned back on the sofa, and took a sip.
"Ugh... it doesn't taste good..."
Squinting and smacking her lips, Lin Shuang managed to suppress the spicy taste in her mouth.
Acheron Quan, who was standing to the side, watched Lin Shuang's reaction intently, while he tilted his head back and took a big gulp, then swallowed it without changing his expression.
"Compared to other wines, it's not exactly delicious, but the flavor is quite unique. If you can't finish it, give it to me."
Acheron handed the glass to Lin Shuang, indicating that she should pour the rest of the wine into her glass.
But Lin Shuang simply reached out and touched the glass before taking a sip.
"Hmm... no, it's only a little over half a cup."
Acheron didn't know why Lin Shuang insisted on drinking it, but seeing that she wasn't going to let go, he didn't want to force her.
As for the reason, it was simply that Lin Shuang wanted to learn more about Acheron's past.
Now, Izumo has long been submerged in Nihility, nowhere to be found, and Acheron remembers almost nothing.
In this situation, Lin Shuang's desire to understand Acheron's past was also out of necessity.
As for Acheron regaining his Remembrance, who knows when that will be?
Moreover, who knows if Acheron can truly recover completely? Maybe he'll recover only halfway, and then stop once it no longer affects his body.
Who can say for sure?
A small half-glass of wine made Lin Shuang drink most of the System Hour.
As for Acheron, he had already finished the entire bottle of wine.
Two days later.
The Spaceship arrived at the Xianzhou Luofu.
Because of Lin Shuang's pass, they entered Luofu's Starport without any problems.
In the past two days, Lin Shuang has finally been able to completely conceal her Dragon Form and no longer attract attention.
However, after retracting his Dragon Horns and Dragon Tail, Lin Shuang also felt that his sensitivity to the path of The Permanence had decreased slightly.
Of course, it's definitely much better than before.
As soon as I stepped out of Starport, I was surprised to see Tingyun holding a folding fan and waving at me with a smile.
"My benefactor, over here~"
"Tingyun? What are you doing here?"
Lin Shuang smiled and walked over, looking Tingyun up and down. He seemed to be no different from when they last met.
"My benefactor is too kind. If I hadn't received word from my colleagues that you had landed at Luofu's Starport, I wouldn't have known you had returned."
He deliberately put on a 'wronged' look, staring straight at Lin Shuang, his face hidden behind a folding fan, his eyes like autumn water.
Its fluffy Tail quietly pressed against the back of Lin Shuang's hand.
"Ahem... we were planning to go to the Sky-Faring Commission later."
Lin Shuang coughed lightly, resisting the urge to stroke its Tail a couple of times.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true."
Seeing Lin Shuang nod, Tingyun's aggrieved expression vanished instantly, replaced by a broad smile.
He took Lin Shuang's hand and walked outside.
Where is our benefactor headed this time?
"I plan to go to the Divination Department first to pay a visit to Fu Xuan, and then I might also go to see General Jing Yuan."
"After that, I won't disturb your meeting with the Lord Diviner any longer. But please come to the Sky-Faring Commission later, I'll treat you to a simple meal."
Upon hearing that it was Fu Xuan and Jing Yuan, Tingyun could guess that Lin Shuang had come to discuss some important matters.
Although things have been calm on Xianzhou recently, the Tingyun position has been able to detect many unusual signals.
In a while, something big is likely to happen on the Xianzhou.
Lin Shuang's return to the Xianzhou at this time also confirmed some of Tingyun's thoughts to a certain extent.
Today Lin Shuang went to see Grand Tutor and the general, so it was probably inconvenient for me to accompany her the whole time.
So Tingyun naturally took a step back and extended an invitation to dinner.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
Seeing Lin Shuang readily agree, Tingyun's smile widened.
