Chapter 1171: Chapter 1171: Princess Golden Dog, Jiang Xue Seeking South (1st Update) Chapter 1171: Chapter 1171: Princess Golden Dog, Jiang Xue Seeking South (1st Update) Jiang Xunnan felt that her wrist was about to be crushed by Xiao Tian; the pain made her eyes well up with tears.
But her heart still harbored so doubts.
Who is this Erlang?
He must be very important to him, right?
Otherwise, why would he be so preoccupied with him even at a ti like this?
Just then, Xiao Tian’s grip gradually loosened, and he fell back into a deep sleep.
Jiang Xunnan didn’t dare to move, so she quietly sat there, cradling Xiao Tian’s head.
Having been traveling and alard over consecutive days, Jiang Xunnan was also extrely exhausted. Despite kneeling on the ground, she couldn’t fight off the overwhelming drowsiness and soon fell into a groggy sleep.
After an indeterminate amount of ti, Jiang Xunnan suddenly felt sothing peculiar on her cheek, as if soone was caressing her, which startled her awake from her semi-conscious state.
When she opened her eyes, she just so happened to see Xiao Tian’s hand hastily retracting.
Xiao Tian had already stood up at so point, and when he noticed Jiang Xunnan’s gaze, he turned his head away unnaturally and said indifferently, “The ground is cold. If you’re tired, go inside to sleep.”
After saying that, he got up and returned to the table, continuing to drink and dine.
Jiang Xunnan watched his retreating figure, and the corners of her mouth gradually lifted into a smile, her eyes unknowingly brimming with mirth.
Then, feeling unexpectedly cheerful, Jiang Xunnan stood up, stamped her feet which had grown numb from kneeling for too long, and walked lightly to the table.
“Has the food gone cold? Should I warm it up for you?”
“No need!”
Xiao Tian continued consuming his al.
Still at the sa steady pace, the sa frequency.
“Do you always eat like this?” Jiang Xunnan watched for a while and finally couldn’t help but ask.
“Eat like what?” Xiao Tian looked up sowhat surprised.
“Like… this nearly chanical pace and rhythm! It almost makes you look like a puppet.” Jiang Xunnan thought hard before coming up with such a description,
but as soon as the words escaped, she realized her gaffe, panicked, and wanted to explain.
Yet Xiao Tian didn’t seem to notice, simply remarking lightly, “Maybe it’s a habit! I just find eating this way more comfortable!”
Jiang Xunnan tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, smiled, and then picked up the wine jug to fill Xiao Tian’s cup to the brim.
“It’s dull to drink alone, let keep you company!”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian abruptly looked up, gazing at Jiang Xunnan’s face, overflowing with a warm smile.
A long, lingering silence.
It lasted so long that Jiang Xunnan’s smile gradually took on an air of embarrassnt.
Then Xiao Tian finally nodded gently, “That would be nice!”
The smile in Jiang Xunnan’s eyes grew brighter, and then she obediently sat down next to Xiao Tian, beginning to serve him wine and arrange the dishes.
The liquor was sweet and sharp; once swallowed, it slid down like a line of fire into the stomach, clearly a fine spirit.
At least after Jiang Xunnan had one cup, her cheeks turned a flushed red.
Then she looked sowhat dumbfounded at Xiao Tian, who, as if drinking cold water, kept pouring cup after cup into his mouth.
“Won’t you get drunk drinking like that?”
“Drunk?” Xiao Tian was taken aback, then shook his head, “From the day I had mory, I have never been drunk!”
“And I do want to get drunk, but I’ve never been able to!”
Xiao Tian’s voice grew somber as he spoke.
Jiang Xunnan felt a tightness in her heart and suddenly wanted to embrace the young man in white, his head bowed low.
It always seed to her that upon his heart lay troubles heavy enough to crush one’s spirit.
It was then that Xiao Tian suddenly lifted his head and said earnestly to Jiang Xunnan, “I’m sorry about what just happened!”
“Sorry?” Jiang Xunnan was taken aback, then understanding dawned, and she laughed softly, shaking her head, “Why apologize? You haven’t done anything wrong!”
After hesitating for a mont, she cautiously asked, “Does this happen to you often?”
Xiao Tian seed stunned, then nodded sowhat blankly, “Not before, but recently it’s beco more frequent!”
“Is it extrely painful?”
“It’s not so much about pain, but I feel like there are things I should rember for life that I’ve forgotten, so I try to recall them. But then I find everything is just an empty void, nothing’s there!” At this point, a fleeting look of pain crossed Xiao Tian’s eyes.
“But in your dreams, you seed to be calling out soone’s na! The na of soone called Erlang!” said Jiang Xunnan.
“Erlang…” Xiao Tian murmured the na several tis, then hung his head low, his eyes filled with sadness.
“I can’t rember, I can’t rember anything! I only have a blurry recollection of a man with a vertical eye on his forehead laughing at !”
“A vertical eye on his forehead?” Jiang Xunnan was startled, reminded of the Divine General Chi Yu she had seen earlier that day.
“Was it the man from today?”
At this, Xiao Tian bowed his head, grasping his hair tightly in his hands, and spoke in a deep voice, “I don’t know, my mories now tell it was him, but I always feel it’s not!”
As he spoke, he began to pull at his hair in agony.
Jiang Xunnan was startled, and quickly changed the subject, “If you can’t rember, then don’t force it. That’s how I do it. If I really can’t recall, I just put it aside, and unexpectedly, one day it might just co back to !”
Xiao Tian suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with hope, “Really?”
Jiang Xunnan nodded vigorously, “Truly!”
The color of pain in Xiao Tian’s eyes slowly faded, returning to calm. He raised his cup and said, “Thank you!”
Jiang Xunnan’s eyes crinkled with a smile as she clinked her cup with his, “It is I who should be thanking you, for saving !”
“Then let us thank each other!”
“Mhm!”
After clinking cups, they both drained them and found themselves exchanging glances, bursting into laughter at the sa mont.
“Why were you captured and brought here? Was it because you sneaked out?” Xiao Tian asked gently.
Jiang Xunnan shuddered, took a deep breath, and shook her head, “No! I lied to you before!”
Xiao Tian remained silent, listening attentively.
“I am indeed the princess of the Jinquan Clan, but the Jinquan Clan no longer exists!” Jiang Xunnan’s voice was eerily calm as she spoke of these matters—a calmness almost cruel in its composure.
“My parents, my brother, my sisters, and the entire Jinquan Clan have been slaughtered by the deities of Lihen Heaven! I was only captured for my rare traits and sold into the boundary city as rchandise!”
Xiao Tian said nothing.
At this mont, Jiang Xunnan lifted her head. Though her tone remained calm, her face was soaked with tears.
“So I want to live, even if it’s a humble life, I am willing! Because I want to avenge them with my own hands!”
“Am I foolish to think this way?”
Xiao Tian looked at Jiang Xunnan and shook his head seriously, “No!”
Tears stread down Jiang Xunnan’s face, yet her smile blood like flowers, “Thank you! Co, let’s drink!”
The wine filled the silver cups, but the flavor they swallowed was unknowable.
Outside the window, the night was cool like water, and the moon hung high in the sky.
The world is vast, the cities splendid, but amidst the splendor are only two lonely souls sharing a drink.
