Xie Ji and Lu Xunji stayed in the hotel for three days.
Besides teaching him English, Lu Xunji would cup his face and slowly kiss him. Xie Ji initially tried to convince himself to get used to it, but eventually he couldn't. This Lu Xunji, let whoever wants to kiss him, he really couldn't stand it anymore.
For no other reason than that we kissed too frequently.
As the exam date approached, Lu Xunji seemed to become increasingly anxious. When he was anxious, he tended to kiss people, hugging, pressing, and cuddling. Xie Ji felt like Lu Xunji was licking his lips raw.
" Lu Xunji, I really have to say something to you. Of course, I don't mean to say your illness is bad, I'm just saying, could you please control it a little?" Xie Ji, his lips flushed red after being kissed by Lu Xunji, said, "You even gave me mouth ulcers."
Lu Xunji didn't speak, but turned his head to kiss him, their bodies entwined and pulled back and forth, producing low, husky, sexy sounds.
Xie Ji reached out and pushed him away, and Lu Xunji obediently let him push him away. His purple eyes fell on his lips, and he leaned in to give him a peck.
"Aren't you being a little too anxious?" Xie Ji was on the verge of collapse; he'd never been this demanding before.
Lu Xunji, panting, nuzzled his ear and whispered, "Hmm, a little."
"Is it because of a special exam?" Xie Ji asked. "With your abilities, why would you be anxious about something like this?"
Lu Xunji pressed his forehead against his, rubbing his lips with his thumb, and remained silent for a long while before finally saying, "Baby, you're really good at making things difficult for people."
Xie Ji: "?"
Huh? Me again?
His thumb pressed against Xie Ji's soft earlobe, rubbing the skin until it turned red, and he looked at Xie Ji and said, "I want to."
Xie Ji: "... Don't have a relapse, buddy."
"Why are you unwilling?" Lu Xunji looked at him. "Are you dissatisfied with me?"
Xie Ji said speechlessly, "That's not it! I can comfort you, but I really can't do this! I can't accept it, I'm really not Nantong!"
"You can get used to anything." Lu Xunji exhaled a breath of warm air and coaxed softly, "I'll give you time."
Xie Ji pointed at him and said, "If you keep doing this, I'm really leaving."
Lu Xunji lowered his eyes and exhaled a trembling breath. "... Alright."
Xie Ji glanced down, feeling the air around him was undeniably awkwardly ambiguous. "You... you handle it yourself. I'm going out for some fresh air. Tomorrow's the special exam, I'll do my best, you... you don't need to worry about me."
"Um."
Lu Xunji agreed, and seeing Xie Ji's hurried escape, he turned around, grabbed his clothes, and went into the hotel bathroom.
Xie Ji wandered around outside alone for a while. Little Black popped out from his wrist and hissed, "Host, don't worry. The missions in this world are inherently quite difficult. It's normal that there's no progress yet."
"Thanks for the invitation, but I'm not in a hurry." Xie Ji glanced down at him, sat on a bench beside the green belt, watched the traffic on the street, and said softly, resting her chin on her hand, "I just feel a little tired, it's so hard to think... I don't know what to do. Do I really have to sacrifice myself for the mission? Tonics, brother, I really can't do it."
Little Black shook his head. "You don't like him?"
"I don't really have a liking or disliking feeling." Xie Ji paused, scratching his head. "I don't know, I can't tell. He's so pitiful, I just feel sorry for him. But—feeling sorry for him isn't love, right? If I don't like him, I can't be with him, it's irresponsible to both of us, right? Lu Xunji —sigh, Lu Xunji —it's so hard."
The little dog sighed Xie Ji.
"In that case, how about trying the Divine Sense Fruit?" Little Black took out the Divine Sense Fruit that Xie Ji had stockpiled before from the system shop, curled it up with its snake tail and waved it around. "I cleansed the karma inside, so it shouldn't cause you to get a fever like last time. However, this Divine Sense Fruit seems to contain fragments of its owner's memories, and I don't know why they can't be washed away, but it's not a big deal. At most, you just possess someone else's memories."
Xie Ji entered the system space and took out all the Divine Sense Fruit he had collected.
There are ten in total.
"So, the dream I had when I had a fever last time was someone else's memory?" Xie Ji said. "No wonder, I don't remember ever having so many silver coins..."
He picked up a Divine Sense Fruit Divine Sense Fruit, took a bite, and ate all ten of them like apples. He could clearly feel a warm current flowing through his limbs and bones.
The familiar dizziness returned, and Xie Ji covered his forehead, leaned back on the bench, and closed his eyes.
A few scattered fragments of memory flashed through his mind.
A white-robed immortal with long, flowing golden hair leaned against a tree trunk, holding a lustrous white chess piece that dangled to one side. On the chessboard below, the white piece was on its last legs.
"Damn it, you really!" the long-haired beauty blurted out angrily, "Did you steal my chess pieces when I wasn't looking?"
A voice came from the side, indifferent yet unusually doting. "Just consider it as me stealing it. Which move does Master intend to ruin?"
The long-haired beauty angrily threw a chess piece onto the board. "What do you mean? You look down on me? I was only letting you win because you're young. Did you really think I couldn't beat you? That's hilarious!"
"My master was playing chess with me, but his mind wasn't on the board." The man in the black robe stood up, put away the chess pieces, walked over, grabbed his chin, and forced him to look directly at him. "What are you thinking about?"
The long-haired beauty mumbled, " A-Mang, I miss Kunlun. I keep dreaming about my senior brother these past few days, I—"
The next moment, her red lips were bitten, and the man in black robes said, "Hmm, my good master, I won't want to do it anymore after a little while."
The blonde beauty kicked him.
The surrounding scenery twisted and changed; the chessboard in front of him transformed into a desk, and golden ginkgo leaves covered the ground, with a few falling on him.
He nestled in the tree to sleep, using leaves as a fan to shield his face from the sun. A gentle breeze carried a faint floral fragrance, but mostly a fresh, bitter scent of ginkgo leaves, which made him drowsy.
Suddenly, a wild fruit hit him. He opened his eyes and looked down.
Backlit, it was hard to see clearly, but someone stood under a tree, speaking with a helpless tone, " Ji Qing, a large amount of itching powder appeared in the Kunlun Academy cafeteria yesterday. What do you have to say about that?"
"I had no idea about this, senior!"
"Are you still pretending?"
"Okay, I did it. They bullied A-Mang."
"Only you think they can bully Di Mang? That kid deserves to be fooled. If you do something so childish again, I'll tell Di Mang about you delivering love letters to the female students at the Heavenly Sound Palace."
"Damn it! I already told you I was delivering it for that kid surnamed Mu!"
