Chapter 104 The Reversal of Heavenly Gang: Xia Li
Bruce honestly admitted his mistake, but he kept trying to get close to Song Che or Xia Li. Tao Yao also squatted down beside him, but she didn't seem to care about admitting her mistake. She was bored and wanted to find some fun.
It was Song Che's fault for leaving them at home for two days.
"The things in this house aren't mine, they belong to the landlord. You know you have to pay compensation, do you know how much you have to pay?"
"I don't know." Tao Yao was immediately kicked offline by Tao Xiang as soon as she finished speaking. "I know I was wrong. I can go without eating for the next few days—you can also spank Tao Xiang."
"You're much more sensible than your sister," Song Che praised. "Does Tao Yao have an ID card? Where did you put it?"
"Yes, there is—" Taoxiang hesitated.
"I need to see her ID card, then this matter is over, and you two won't have to go hungry."
"No!" Tao Yao immediately went online.
"What are you keeping this for?" Song Che paused. "Perfect timing, I want to talk to you about your problem, whether you're human or a monster."
Song Che couldn't tell. If she was a monster, the information he received from the orphanage was that Tao Yao was human. But now Tao Yao was just a cat, and a stupid cat at that, who could only survive by relying on her younger sister.
"I am nobody, I am the Fox King, Tao Yao."
Were you a human before?
"I have always been Tao Yao."
"Okay, then show me your ID card." Song Che felt he couldn't get anything out of her, so he changed the subject and said, "Tao Xiang, you tell me, and I'll buy you something delicious later."
"If my sister won't tell, I will!" Tao Xiang is very rebellious now, repeatedly pushing Tao Yao offline. "Her ID card—it's been bitten through and is in my pocket."
Tao Xiang transformed into a little girl, took out her ID card, and said, "But this thing can't be exchanged for money. If it's broken—it'll be useless."
"It's nothing, I'm just taking a look." Song Che looked at the ID card from front to back. The ID number was from the province and it was valid for the last few years. The photo was of a teenage girl, but it had been bitten, especially around the eyes, where there were two holes. She looked like a suspect.
But if you don't look at their eyes, Tao Yao and Tao Xiang are quite similar; Tao Xiang is a smaller version of Tao Yao.
"Taoxiang, are you two sisters?"
"no."
"Okay, I understand." Song Che was basically certain that Tao Yao was probably a monster who had obtained an identity at the orphanage and used illusions to deceive people every day.
Peach blossoms, peach blossoms, you're running away, aren't you?
Should they flee or let the peach blossoms bloom in their prime?
Song Che thought about it for a while.
Recipe, Shining.
The name Tao Yao has many meanings.
Song Che wrote down her ID card and returned it to Tao Xiang. Normally, she could just use the number to buy tickets or register with her real name. There was no rush when taking trains or airplanes.
With an ID card, you can do many more things.
Even if she went to a place like the Star Gazing Pavilion, Tao Yao could use an illusion spell to conceal her identity.
"Can your sister turn into a human?"
"I will not change!"
"Then it can change." Song Che nodded. "Let me see it change."
"constant."
"I would like to see the face of the Fox King."
"You have a nice way of speaking—and I won't change."
"The Fox King is so beautiful that even the moon and flowers would blush with shame."
"I—I can't actually change."
"Alright, I'll admire you after you've transformed." Song Che catered to his interests, "Is Your Majesty hungry now? Would you like to eat?"
"Three steamed buns—four." Tao Yao glanced at Song Che, then added a few more. "How about six?"
"Here are seven for you."
"Thank you—I accept it." Tao Yao quickly took back her thanks, but her mouth remained stubbornly tight.
However, Song Che still heard it. The fact that the girl thanked him was an improvement. She wasn't the kind of ingrate or a born wanderer, so Song Che didn't dislike her.
It's okay to be stubborn, it's okay to be argumentative, it's okay to be mischievous—these are all superficial. If someone's inner self is still like this, Song Che doesn't like it.
After finishing what he was doing, Song Che went to find Xia Li. The girl was sitting on the tattered sofa with her legs together, sitting upright and looking rather awkward. She seemed to be deep in thought.
"What are you thinking about?" Song Che asked.
Xia Li didn't speak, but after a while, she suddenly said, "I'm hungry."
"I'll cook in a bit." Song Che turned around to get a broom and dustpan to clean up the lint and torn furniture on the floor.
Xia Li didn't offer to help him with the cleaning; she remained seated, lost in thought.
Tao Yao and Bruce obediently squatted at Song Che's feet. These two culprits were of no help; they only caused trouble. Bruce drooped his ears, feeling very regretful.
It has always been a good boy. If Tao Yao hadn't said she would take him to play, it wouldn't have bothered Song Che. It felt sorry for its owner and was very sad, but it was just a cat and couldn't even speak.
If it could talk, it would definitely say something to Song Che.
Sorry, meow—woof!
Woof—It's not because my owner is good to me that I'm reflecting on this.
Bruce helped Song Che drag the torn sofa cover to the dustpan, while Tao Yao remained motionless. After a while, Tao Xiang took over, and the little girl ran to the side and lay down, ready to eat.
Tao Yao probably felt too embarrassed, but she couldn't bring herself to apologize, so she would have Tao Xiang take her place every time she felt awkward.
After tidying up the living room, Song Che took a quick look at the bedroom.
The bedroom was fairly tidy; they hadn't ruined it.
After finishing everything, he went to the kitchen to cook. Once the food was on the table, Song Che went to find Xia Li.
Xia Li was still in a daze.
"Your Highness, what are you thinking about? Dinner is ready."
Xia Li belatedly looked up, "Song Che, between Zixia Fairy and Bai Jingjing, which one do you like?"
"Hmm?" Song Che paused, his hand holding the chopsticks still. This was the first movie they'd seen together. "Personally?"
Song Che couldn't help but think a little more. From the perspective of a normal girlfriend, when your girlfriend asks this question, it's not right to answer with Zixia or Bai Jingjing.
You should answer, "I like you more."
However, Xia Li wasn't that kind of person; she didn't have that many thoughts.
"Yes, if you were the Monkey King—which one would you like?"
"The ending is that someone who looks exactly like Supreme Treasure and someone who looks exactly like Zixia end up together," Song Che reminded her.
"I know, I want to know who you prefer a little more."
"To be honest—I like them all." Song Che handed the bowl to Xia Li.
"You can only choose one." Xia Li took the bowl, but didn't touch her chopsticks.
"It's so hard to choose."
"Then we still have to choose one," Xia Li pressed. "Who will you choose?"
Song Che could tell from her expression that she was clearly emotional.
Getting emotional about it is not good, so we need to think about this issue carefully.
"select----"
Choosing Mrs. Niu?
Song Che thought about it for a moment, and it would have been better if he hadn't thought about it at all; after thinking about it, it became even harder to choose.
He looked down, preparing to take a bite of rice, only to find that Tao Xiang had already finished half of the stir-fried dish.
Seeing Song Che's stunned expression, Tao Xiang shyly handed him the half-eaten egg, saying, "Brother, you eat it."
"You eat it yourself."
Song Che continued to ponder whether to choose Zixia or Bai Jingjing.
Dude, I actually got elected.
In fact, according to the plot sequence, Supreme Treasure has always loved Bai Jingjing. He returned to 500 years ago to save Bai Jingjing and met Zixia. It was because of Bai Jingjing that Zixia came into being. A 500-year-old feud was connected by the Moonlight Box. This is the beginning, and also the ending, the destined ending.
Damn it, I've thought about it over and over, but I still can't choose.
Song Che could now fully understand the inner turmoil of Supreme Treasure; he would feel terrible if either of these two girls let him down.
He didn't even know who he liked; only his heart knew.
But Zixia didn't leave a single tear in my heart.
Song Che spoke up, "Bai Jingjing is more important. Zixia's marriage was arranged by heaven. I personally have a soft heart—I feel that those who are not arranged by heaven should also have their own pursuits."
Song Che started eating.
Actually, I felt that Bai Jingjing was a bit silly, and her aggrieved look was exactly the same as Xia Li's.
Sure enough, when you like someone, you still see Xia Li in your mind.
Song Che suddenly remembered a sentence.
It's called the destructive power of the "white moonlight".
To be precise, it's the destructive power of first love.
Even if he were to find someone else after he hadn't been with Xia Li, he would never forget her.
Damn it, that wretched woman, she's made me lose my mind!
I will study hard and get into Nanjing University!
Song Che thought about it again.
Damn it, I got into Nanjing University so that Xia Li could have a better life.
Women are terrifying.
Xia Li nodded, then shook her head.
I like them all.
"Hmm?" Song Che stopped eating with his chopsticks again.
If I can like them all after all this time, then why did I spend so much time agonizing over it?
"But why can't Zixia fall in love? Why does falling in love mean she's no longer a goddess and becomes a mortal?"
Upon hearing this, Song Che explained, "That's how it is here. We don't allow immortals to fall in love. We emphasize being free from desires and following the natural way. If you want to seek immortality or ask for divination, you must first sever your seven emotions and six desires."
"But what's the point of being a god if you're not happy?" Xia Li said. "Bai Jingjing said she wants to be happy. What's the point of immortality if you're not happy? That's why she doesn't want to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh anymore."
"Almost there, Your Highness has done a good job outlining the plot." Song Che quickly finished the rest of his food and then put some more on Xia Li's plate.
Xia Li is different from before.
These strange things would also appear in her head.
Xia Li's learning speed is genius!
Song Che's praise was heartfelt.
Xia Li is talented in many areas except for her love life.
If he can score 600 points on the college entrance exam, Xia Li is the type who can score 700.
"Song Che, let's go find Tang Sanzang."
"You want to capture Tang Sanzang so I can eat his flesh?"
"Yes, eating this will grant you immortality."
Aren't you afraid Sun Wukong will hit you?
"He's a fake."
Song Che was taken aback. "Then wasn't Tang Sanzang a fake too?"
"Tang Sanzang is real."
Song Che remained silent.
Well, I take back what I said earlier. Xia Li is indeed a bit slow.
However, Xia Li speaks much more fluently now, and Song Che is no longer fixated on the issues of life and death. He says he has come to terms with it—but that's not really true; it's more accurate to say he has accepted it.
Only after accepting the brevity of life did Song Che realize how precious his time with Xia Li was.
Very precious!
He also came to understand more and more why he liked Xia Li.
The initial reason was that Xia Li was beautiful. Xia Li had lost her magic and was as weak as a chicken, yet she still chanted spells to save him.
Now Song Che realized that he had always had feelings for Xia Li.
That affection was Xia Li's pure nature.
He is human, deeply ingrained with concepts of good and evil, or traditions of virtue.
They think they are a good person, or that someone else is a good person and someone else is a bad person.
Song Che himself doesn't judge others much, but as a human being, he subconsciously judges others by his own standards.
Song Che realized he was wrong. His belief that he was kind, good, or evil was wishful thinking. As a human being, he was a contradiction. No one could be purely kind or purely good. He didn't want Xia Li to be sad after he died—partly because he was genuinely worried about Xia Li, and partly, to put it bluntly, because he cared about his reputation and felt that if he didn't take responsibility for this girl, others would gossip about him.
Although no one would know that there was such a huge gap between Xia Li and him.
Song Che is still the same now, but he has accepted it. He is a good person, and a bad person.
He is selfish, so he wants to possess Xia Li.
Because Xia Li is the impossible, she is the pure.
It's not that Xia Li's actions are simply aimed at one particular direction.
Rather, it means that Xia Li's actions, whether good or bad, are all in accordance with her heart.
She seems a bit clumsy, and her way of thinking is always laughable.
But she is who she is.
Xia Li had already done it; she is who she is, and she doesn't need to say anything more.
As the saying goes, Heaven and Earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs. Heaven and Earth are fair and indifferent. Song Che's own existence and Xia Li's existence are both existences.
So—Song Che silently went to the kitchen and cooked another dish.
I can't chat nonsense with Xia Li during meals anymore.
Momoka is a real glutton!
After she had eaten and drunk her fill, she went off to play somewhere else.
Song Che added more food and continued eating.
Xia Li was still pondering, feeling like she was about to become a philosopher.
It was getting later.
Xia Li must be really hungry.
Humans are not immune to the pain of eating.
She started eating.
After finishing her meal, she took the initiative to wash the dishes and began to think again.
Xia Li thinking.jpg
"Song Che, let's watch more movies about life and death."
"it is good."
Song Che had no objections; Xia Li must have become interested in these things.
However, seeing Xia Li thinking made Song Che very happy. If someone is thinking about the other person, then they care about that person.
Xia Li now trusts him and cares about him.
That's good.
That's good enough.
It's getting late, but we're on holiday now.
Going to bed at 11 PM?
It's a way to maintain health!
Song Che planned to watch a short film with Xia Li, something about the birth or death of a baby.
It doesn't necessarily have to be a movie.
Some anime are also quite well made.
Movies about life and death tend to have a heavy emotional tone, while Song Cheol prefers a more relaxed atmosphere.
But watching it with Xia Li was surprisingly interesting.
"You said last time that these movies were all made by real people and were fake, right?"
"Yes, there was a camera filming nearby, you just couldn't see it, it was edited in post-production."
"Should we make a movie?"
"Huh?" Song Che's mind was still not quite there. You said you'd make a movie, but is it going to be serious?
"Let's make one too—it can make money."
"Good idea, but making a movie requires start-up capital. We—well, we'll have to wait until later." Song Che didn't refuse her.
They're different from those movies; they can be together for life.
No need to wait until the next life.
"Song Che," Xia Li called out to him.
"Hmm, what's wrong? Tell me."
"Can you be a little cute with me?"
what?
Song Che once again failed to keep up with her thoughts.
Xia Li's thoughts change too quickly. Anyone who didn't know better would think that Xia Li had gone through something. Last time it was because she had lived alone for a hundred years without saying anything—could she be hiding something from me again this time?
Song Che sensed that something was wrong with Xia Li.
If you start acting cute, your persona will fall apart!
Wait, you mean you want me to act cute with you?!
"I'm not one to act cute or coquettish!"
"...
."
"If you don't bother me, everything is fine."
