Why do you always want to be my Taoist partner?

Jiang Li felt that he couldn't think about these things anymore. If he did, he would be driven crazy. It was like that in the past, and it was the same this time because of Mu Bingning. He hated Mu Bingning for hiding everything. Even when Mu Bingning rejected him at the beginning, he had already guessed that there must be some hidden story, but he never thought of taking the initiative to explore it. He hated himself for being like this, but he never took the initiative to change.

Jiang Li looked at Mu Bingning in front of him. He knew that what he said seemed to be meaningless. Tears rolled down Mu Bingning's eyes. He really wanted to say something to make her happy. Obviously, he was so good at coaxing women, but now it seemed that he couldn't say anything.

"Tears that fall on the corners of your mouth will become salty, and sugar will not be so sweet anymore." Jiang Li picked up the handkerchief on the bed and gently wiped her tears.

But Mu Bingning couldn't stop her tears from falling.

"If you cry again I'll leave."

Jiang Li finally couldn't think of any words to coax her, and finally decided to start a bad conversation. However, he didn't expect that Mu Bingning raised her hand to wipe away her tears several times, biting her lips hard and raising her head to stop the tears from falling.

"But it seems that I don't have anything to say. I just came to see your injuries. If you are okay, it will be fine. I think I have said everything I wanted to say. You are not the kind of person who will die without love, so it's no big deal."

"You know I hate people who are so moved that they want to die because they can't get the love they want."

Jiang Li reached out and pinched her face.

Her body was always slightly cold, but very soft when touched. Jiang Li felt like he was touching a piece of melted ice. Mu Bingning's eyelashes were still stained with dew. Jiang Li grabbed a handful of candies and gave them to her like a magic trick.

"If you like sweets, there will be a lot of candies on sale at Qiyue Pavilion soon. You can buy some then."

Jiang Li took his hand back and said, "Take good care of yourself. I have to go back first."

Jiang Li stood up. He knew that Mu Bingning would not try to keep him because she was clumsy. She had only practiced sword skills alone in the past years. How could she be smart enough to know how to please a man?

But in the past, Jiang Li liked her clumsiness. Now when he thought about it, he felt a little sad. He came out of the room and saw Mu Xuezhi staring at the flower called Snow Fat that Jiang Li had given her before.

"Eavesdropping is not a good habit." Jiang Li said to Mu Xuezhi with a smile.

"You spoke too loudly. I heard it even though I didn't want to." Mu Xuezhi answered calmly, but Jiang Li laughed happily, "So you really were eavesdropping."

Mu Xuezhi took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Li, who was smiling frivolously in front of her. Her eyes suddenly became a little confused. After a long time, she asked.

"Which you is the real you?"

Chapter 125: Chapter : I’ll suffocate you to death!

Jiang Li suddenly found it ridiculous.

He thought Mu Xuezhi's question was so stupid and funny that he couldn't help but laugh out loud. Mu Xuezhi looked at him in confusion.

"why are you laughing?"

"I think the joke the Sect Master told is funny."

"What's so funny?"

"You neither know me nor understand me. You defined me based on your intuition and concluded that I was hypocritical and full of lies. But the next second you began to doubt your judgment and asked me, which me is the real me?"

"You are Mu Xuezhi. In your world, you have lived for so many years and met so many people. Naturally, you can judge everything based on your intuition and experience. So if you say I am hypocritical, what else can I refute?"

Jiang Li shrugged. "You are sober, rational, and have no desires. Once you find yourself having some emotional fluctuations, you quickly suppress them. In the end, you actually live a life that is not like a human being."

Mu Bingning was speechless, or perhaps she was unable to refute.

"It's so cold." Jiang Li sighed softly.

"Disciple has something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."

Jiang Li turned around and left leisurely.

Mu Xuezhi stood there, staring at him silently, until he disappeared from her sight, the confusion in her eyes still did not dissipate.

................................................

"My dear Junior Sister Bai Sheng, what are you doing?"

Jiang Li pushed open the door of Bai Sheng's yard, and saw Bai Sheng just walked to the door, as if he was about to go out. Seeing Jiang Li coming, Bai Sheng stopped for a moment, "Eh?"

"Are you planning to go see Mu Bingning?" Jiang Li asked curiously.

Bai Sheng nodded.

"Her injuries have improved a lot, and she is now in Mu Xuezhi's yard."

"Senior Brother Jiang Li has just been there?"

"Yes, I went to see her." Jiang Li nodded, and Bai Sheng responded softly. Jiang Li came in front of her, leaned close, and kissed her on the cheek. Bai Sheng did not avoid it and closed her eyes obediently.

"Then you go, I won't go."

Jiang Li and Bai Sheng walked out of the door together and parted at the end of the road. Jiang Li thought for a moment and walked towards Qiyue Pavilion.

................................................

"My dear sister Yueji, what are you doing?"

Jiang Li came to the sixth floor of Qiyue Pavilion. He had just sent a message to Yue Ji, who was sitting in front of the mirror. When she saw him coming, she turned her head with a confused look on her face. "I found something very strange."

"What?" Jiang Li asked in confusion.

Yue Ji was wearing a black palace dress today. People say that black makes people look thinner, but Jiang Li only saw her slender waist, which was still round and bulging under the clothes. Jiang Li sat down at Yue Ji's table. Yue Ji came to the opposite side of him and said slowly, "Mu Bingning's marriage thread is broken."

"It's broken, so what?" Jiang Li shrugged, but Yue Ji's expression was particularly solemn. "This is very strange. In the past, when I saw marriage lines on others, they would meet their own marriages during the time I saw them, but Mu Bingning's marriage line disappeared out of thin air."

"The laws of nature are unpredictable. It is normal for mistakes to occur." Jiang Li didn't care about it.

"But it's very strange. I clearly saw the marriage thread on Mu Bingning's body, but I don't know who the other end is connected to. It's just like I can't see anything on you."

"Why bother with those things?" Jiang Li lay on the table, looking at Yue Ji, "Anyway, everything is ultimately determined by human effort, not fate, isn't it?"

Yue Ji couldn't find an answer to her confusion, so she had to stop thinking about it. She looked at Jiang Li, "Why did you come to see me?"

"I just came to chat with you because I have nothing to do." Jiang Li held his cheek and looked at her face, but Yue Ji glared at him unhappily. She couldn't help but mutter, "I always feel that every time you come to see me, it's not good."

"how come?"

Jiang Li took out a handful of candies from his storage ring and placed them all on the table, almost forming a pile of candies. Yue Ji tilted her head.

Of course she had eaten these candies before. When she was a child, Jiang Li often made her cry and then took out two candies to comfort her.

I don’t know how Jiang Li made these candies, but they are much more delicious than ordinary candies.

"For me?" Yue Ji glanced at him.

"You don't like sweets, so I made a lot of these candies recently, and I thought you could sell them in Qiyue Pavilion."

"What's so good about this?" Yue Ji was puzzled.

Jiang Li felt a little guilty. "No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it's still meat. I have a lot of it. Can you help me sell it?"

"How many spirit stones do you lack?" Yue Ji crossed her arms over her chest, leaned back slightly, and crossed her legs. Her feet were bare, white and tender, with a slight hint of pink.

Jiang Li has been a pauper most of the time in these years. After all, all the spirit stones he earned when he went down the mountain in these years were given to Yue Ji, and Yue Ji bought some materials for Jiang Jinbie for cultivation.

But Jiang Li still has 200,000 spirit stones in his pocket. They were given to him by Jiang Huanyang last time. He is not short of spirit stones. Jiang Li tries to look serious and says, "No, I am not short of spirit stones. Even if I make a batch, I can't finish them. I think it would be a waste to leave them there. I might as well give them to you to help me deal with them."

"So how much did you do?"

Jiang Li took out a bag and started taking out candies from the bag.

His system is a dinner. There is no AI to talk to, no pretty poster girl, and no tasks. It just silently rates and evaluates each woman, encouraging him to be a sea king. The rewards are quite tricky. Sometimes there will be some random special rewards for completing some achievements.

For example, these candies were packaged last time. Ten thousand of them are counted as one system grid. Ten grids were rewarded at one time. There are one hundred thousand candies of various flavors. How can we finish them?

So Jiang Li moved a lot of things in front of Yue Ji at once and looked at her sincerely.

"Don't let me catch you playing tricks again." Yue Ji glanced at him dimly and put away all the candies. After a while, Yue Ji looked at him again, "Do you have anything else to tell me?"

"I went to see Mu Bingning this morning." Jiang Li did not hide anything, nor did he feel guilty at all, his eyes were calm.

"Oh, what then?"

"By the way, I learned the truth of four years ago." Jiang Li spread his hands helplessly, "Four years ago, Mu Xuezhi thought I was a hypocritical man who was deceiving Mu Bingning, so she didn't allow Mu Bingning to be with me."

"But Mu Xuezhi herself has a problem with her brain. She kept saying that there is no real love in this world and that all love is a lie. Then she tried to impose her ideas on Mu Bingning, which led to the situation four years ago."

"Now that the misunderstanding is resolved, can you continue?" Yue Ji's voice was playful and contemptuous, but Jiang Li saw that her fingertips slightly grasped the corner of her clothes.

Jiang Li came up to her and asked, "Why, do you want me to go?"

"If you want to go, can I stop you?"

Retreating in order to advance is one of the methods that Yue Ji is good at.

"Okay, then I'll go." Jiang Li said with a smile.

Yue Ji's dark eyes stared into his, and those bright pupils seemed to be gradually dimming, as if she became a little tired in an instant, so before she spoke, Jiang Li leaned in and kissed her lips.

"Get out of here." Yue Ji bit the corner of his mouth unhappily.

"I'm just kidding. Why would I chase her again?"

Jiang Li covered his mouth innocently. Yue Ji's bite was not light. Although it didn't break the skin, it still hurt. Yue Ji turned her face away, "Who knows if you are testing me again?"

"No, I told her this morning that this will be the last time we meet on our own initiative." Jiang Li said softly.

"why?"

"Why do you need a reason?" Jiang Li looked at Yue Ji helplessly. "Liking someone is a matter of a moment. Disliking someone is also a matter of a moment. From the day she rejected me, I no longer liked her."

"There was something hidden behind what happened back then. With your good temper, would you really be angry?"

"I'm not angry, but I don't want to like a fool."

"What if she's obsessed with you?"

"Then I will naturally find a way to make her completely disappointed in me."

"What if she offered herself to you?"

Jiang Li patted his chest and said, "Do you think I am someone who can refuse?"

Yue Ji couldn't help but raised her leg and kicked him.

But Jiang Li had expected this, so he held her white and tender feet in his hands again. Jiang Li lowered his head, looked at Yue Ji's milky white calves, slender ankles, and those cute little feet, and said softly, "This is not the first day you have known me. I will not covet her beauty. The more easily something is obtained, the less I will cherish it. If she really does this, it will only make me disdain her even more."

"You are so proud!" Yue Ji's voice was full of undisguised sarcasm.

"I'm not being proud, but I've been in a bad mood lately." Jiang Li played with her soft little feet and twisted her toes, like a child playing with a favorite toy.

"how?"

Yue Ji, who seemed angry before, softened her tone again.

But Jiang Li couldn't tell her.

Of course he didn't know how to say it out loud, because it was a secret known only to him.

I don’t want to live in the past anymore, I don’t want to torture myself anymore, I also want to move forward, I also want to love, but why is it that every time I want to do it, those memories keep haunting me?

"I'm sorry." Jiang Li said suddenly.

Yue Ji raised her head and looked into his eyes. At first, her eyes were a little confused, but gradually her eyes became gentle.

"You don't have to apologize to me. I waited for you on my own."

She always knew what Jiang Li wanted to say. She retracted her legs, came to Jiang Li's side, stretched out her hands and hugged him gently.

She patted Jiang Li's head gently, and Jiang Li buried his cheek in her chest. There seemed to be some inexplicable light fragrance in the softness, and Jiang Li sniffed it greedily.

The room became very quiet, so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard.

After a long time, Jiang Li heard Yue Ji's murmurs.

"Actually, I shouldn't have done this. I should have told you that I would leave sooner or later. I should have made you feel threatened and afraid of losing you. Maybe this way you would become more obsessed with me. Maybe this way you would not want to let me go and would not treat me as a tree hole where you can confide in others when you need comfort."

"But I can never do it, because you're like a puppy. Once I kick you away a little, you'll look pitiful. So every time you wag your tail at me, I still want to touch your head."

"So you're such an annoying little dog."

"Woof woof woof." Jiang Li made an unclear sound.

Yue Ji suddenly smiled. She pressed Jiang Li's face tightly against her chest, pouting her lips slightly, with a slightly complaining tone.

"I'll just suffocate you to death!"
