Chapter 648 -647: Jiang Zuo and Su Qi’s Past

“Do you really like me?”

This happened at the edge of a wooded area in a park.

Of course, the setting wasn’t an issue.

The question itself wasn’t too big of a problem either.

As for the young girl, she was even less of an issue.

The terrifying part was that in this little park, from this particular angle, this young girl said those words to him.

Of course, if it were just this scene alone, Jiang Zuo would have simply laughed it off.

But he was worried about what would come next. That was the main reason he was concerned.

If there really was more to come, it would be a disaster. A true disaster.

Then Jiang Zuo heard it—a boy’s somewhat childish voice: “I do, of course I do. The one I like most is Su Qi.”

PFFT—

Jiang Zuo almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

He couldn’t stand the voice, and he could stand the words even less.

‘Stupid, childish, and utterly boring.’

Then, a young boy walked out, a serious expression on his face as he approached the young girl.

This boy looked remarkably similar to Jiang Zuo, and the girl looked remarkably similar to Su Qi. The only major difference was their figures.

Simply put, they were two miniature versions of Jiang Zuo and Su Qi.

Yes, Jiang Zuo was seeing himself, and a younger version of Su Qi.

Su Qi had been very cute, that much was true. He still found her cute now. But right now, he didn’t want to see this Su Qi. Not at all.

‘Especially this scene. Just turn it off, don’t let it continue.’

Su Qi was also watching with a horrified expression, shouting, “Master, turn it off! Turn it off! Hurry up and turn it off, don’t let it continue!”

Yes, the scene was still playing. Su Qi could tell.

Jingyue asked curiously, “Isn’t this an illusion?”

Yue Xi shook her head. “It’s an illusion, but the content is real. Back then, Xiaojiu told me that Xiaojiang confessed to her, and she accepted.”

“As your master, I was worried, so I went to check on them. I happened to see this scene and recorded it.”

Su Qi covered her face with her hands. “Master, you actually saw it? I don’t want to live anymore.”

Yue Xi ignored Su Qi and said, “Keep watching. Their conversation is quite interesting.”

Su Qi ran over, trying to cover her master’s and senior sister’s ears. “Don’t watch! Don’t listen!”

Su Qi realized it was useless. Besides, the next part of the audio had already started.

She couldn’t take it anymore. She squatted on the ground, covering her own ears. “I’m not listening, not listening, not listening!”

Regardless of whether Su Qi was listening, the voice still came through. It was young Su Qi’s voice: “So, how long will you like me?”

The young Jiang Zuo said, “I will love you with all my life. If I had to put a time limit on it, I hope it would be ten thousand years.”

“…”, Jiang Zuo was breaking down on the inside. He covered his face with one hand, his scalp tingling with cringe.

‘No, I can’t take this anymore.’

‘This damn memory. This damn past.’

The young Su Qi said happily, “Then I’ll love you with all my life too, and for ten thousand years! I want you to pamper me and dote on me.”

At that moment, the young Jiang Zuo looked at the young Su Qi. They gazed at each other affectionately.

They wanted to do something, but both seemed a little hesitant.

Finally, the young Jiang Zuo spoke up shyly, “Can… can I… kiss you?”

The young Su Qi lowered her gaze, asking nervously, “Will… will we… have a baby?”

“AHHHHHH!” Su Qi shrieked. “Don’t let it continue! Master! Master! I was wrong, okay? I was wrong! Please don’t let it continue!”

Su Qi wished she could dig a hole and bury herself in it, determined not to listen or hear another word.

Jingyue was watching with great relish. It really was quite interesting.

At this point, the young Jiang Zuo said, “No, we won’t. That’s not what the books say. Besides, even if we did have a baby, I’d definitely work hard to make money, and then…”

The voice stopped abruptly there.

Because Jiang Zuo had turned and walked away.

He had surrendered. He’d given up.

‘Auntie is too ruthless. She’s practically a sadist.’

Jiang Zuo couldn’t watch anymore. He couldn’t stand this kind of dark history. He suddenly understood why Su Qi wouldn’t let him read her notebook.

‘It’s explosively embarrassing!’

‘My younger self… why was I so stupid?’

The illusion disappeared, and Jiang Zuo returned.

He had done his best.

At this moment, Su Qi was still squatting on the ground, while Sister Jingyue was holding back laughter.

Jiang Zuo wondered if he should just kill them to silence them.

Just then, Su Qi peeked out and saw that everything was gone. Jiang Zuo was out, too.

The moment Jiang Zuo was out, Su Qi ran behind him and complained, “This is all your fault! Now I’m too embarrassed to face anyone!”

After speaking, she clung to Jiang Zuo’s back, refusing to show her face.

Jiang Zuo was also in despair. For a serious person like him to be seen in that state… he felt his image for this lifetime was completely ruined.

Even though he had lived for so long, he was still not immune to this kind of thing.

He would never accept a trial from the Holy Land again, especially one involving an Illusion Realm.

It was simply unbearable.

At this moment, Auntie said with regret, “The trial is a failure.”

Jiang Zuo said, “Auntie, you did this on purpose, didn’t you?”

Yue Xi shook her head. “I was doing this for your own good. Besides, you’ve been married for so long, isn’t it nice to give you a commemorative video from your childhood?”

“This is a testament to your love.”

If this video were given to Jiang Zuo, he actually wouldn’t delete it. But he would absolutely never let anyone else see it.

Not even Su Qi.

‘So that’s what Su Qi’s notebook is like.’

However, Jiang Zuo had no desire to respond to his Auntie’s words.

Then his Auntie added, “Although the trial was a failure, it just means you can’t take shortcuts in your training. In any case, just wait a little longer. It should be soon.”

“Just think of it as staying outside for a few more months.”

Jiang Zuo nodded without speaking. He could accept this result.

Besides, he really had tried his best this time.

He had calculated a thousand possibilities, but he never expected that to appear.

He had no idea what he was thinking when he was young.

Jingyue asked, “So, in the end, did you two kiss?”

Su Qi suddenly stuck her tongue out. “I’m not telling you.”

Once things had settled, Su Qi immediately pulled Jiang Zuo away, truly desperate to run.

She couldn’t stay any longer. It was just too embarrassing.

After they left, Jingyue asked, “Master, why did you deliberately provoke them?”

Yue Xi shook her head. “I was just a little curious why they can’t face their own past.”

Jingyue looked at her master and said, “Master, have you ever been secretly happy because of Senior Uncle? If you show us a recording of that, we’d probably understand.”

Yue Xi: “…”

Yue Xi didn’t plan on doing anything to Jingyue. It’s just that she suddenly recalled something from the past, from when her Senior Brother was about to leave.

She still remembered the situation clearly. Her Senior Brother had come to see her, said those words, and in the end, left the Dao Bead for her.

Back then, silly her had been happy for a long, long time.

‘Alright, if anyone dares to show a recording of that, I’ll definitely kill them to silence them.’
