The 273rd Tribulation: Jiang Chen's Gift
Jiang Chen does remember everything I like, including food. However, I still keep thinking about what the old man said in my mind: The future will be different, and the outcome of being together is unknown, so it is better to separate——
Could it be that the old man saw who Jiang Chen and I were and really figured out that we were not suitable to be together?
I was looking at the food on the table in a daze when Jiang Chen asked: "What's wrong, don't you have an appetite?"
"It's okay." I took a few mouthfuls of vegetables and chewed them as a token gesture.
"Xiaoye, hey, are you okay? Why don't you even eat the fish?" Jiang Chen said while picking up a piece of fish and feeding it to my mouth.
I forced myself to smile and ate the piece of fish, but it didn't taste very good. The words of the old beggar still kept appearing in my mind.
"Jiang Chen."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Jiang Chen asked softly.
"Tell me, are we really suitable for each other?" I still unconsciously asked what I wanted to say the most.
"Xiaoye, are you thinking about what that old beggar said again? Why should you be so serious about what a crazy old man said? It must be nonsense!" Jiang Chen said while continuing to add vegetables to my bowl.
"Jiang Chen, can you answer me more seriously? Do you think it's really suitable for us to be together?" I asked a little impatiently. I didn't expect that Jiang Chen would not be happy in this hurry.
"Xiaoye, can we still have a good meal? You don't need to take what the old man said to heart. Besides, it's up to us to decide whether it's suitable or not! If I think it's suitable, then it's suitable! No one else needs to say anything! Xiaoye,
Don’t you understand my feelings for you?” Jiang Chen was a little excited when he spoke.
In fact, what the old man said did not cause some fluctuations in his heart. He also knew that I was an alien, and he was now a human being. Whether we could be together in the end, we all had doubts in our hearts.
This reminds me of when I was imprisoned by Wen Feiyan and the others. Jiang Chen saw the way I transformed into a demon. At that time, he was silent at first and looked surprised and panicked. I could see it. First.
Regardless of whether he is my boyfriend or not, I think as long as he is a human being, he will find it terrifying and unacceptable.
But now, if he sees me transforming into a demon again in the future, will he accept it? To be honest, I really don’t have that much confidence.
Sure enough, is it still a different path for human beings? I thought of Ling Su, Meng Xian, Jin Xuanzi and Gui Niang... They are all love between humans and aliens. But except that Meng Xian is still with humans, there are several other endings
None of them are good. And what Sister Mengxian and Shen Hua did actually violated the rules of both the human and demon worlds.
Can aliens and humans really not have happy endings?
Thinking of this, I still expressed my thoughts to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen saw that I had no appetite, so he put down his chopsticks and stopped putting food in my mouth: "Xiaoye, you should think this way. Although Hu Mengxian and Shen Hua are from different races and are in love with humans, maybe they were originally in love.
Love violates the so-called rules. But they are really together very well, and they are very happy now! Because they have not given up hope, nor have they given up on each other. They are very persistent in their relationship. So, Xiaoye, you have to believe me
, you must also believe in yourself! We will have a good future! Xiaoye, don’t give up on me.”
Having said this, Jiang Chen took my anxious hand that had nowhere to rest on the table, and two strands of warmth flowed from his hand, giving me a little peace of mind.
"Then if I transform into a monster again, won't you be afraid?" I still asked the question I was most worried about.
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that you will turn into a cat? I like animals very much. I used to prefer dogs, but after I met you, I fell in love with cats~" Jiang Chen showed me his all-too-familiar signature to me.
A bad smile. Although it was a bad smile, I actually knew that he was sincere at this moment.
"Hmph, can you still say that when I turn into a monster?" I suddenly took my hands out of his hands and made a face at him. Then I picked up a piece of food on the plate in front of me with my chopsticks.
Stuff the fish meat into your mouth.
"Haha, aren't you just a monster now? You're a little monster who loves fish!" Jiang Chen smiled while putting fish meat into my bowl and picking out all the fish bones.
I thought to myself, after all, I finally got to be alone for once, so I should really be happy. Worrying about the future is of little use now, so let’s talk about it later.
As for the old man begging, it is still very suspicious. I don’t know who he is. Maybe he is not an ordinary person. Maybe he knows me and Jiang Chen. I don’t know if the old man will appear again. If we meet again next time
Yeah, I think I should ask him clearly where he came from to feel more at ease.
At this time, for some unknown reason, Jiang Chen opened his hands and actually put a necklace into the palm of his hand.
"Xiaoye, this is for you." I glanced at the necklace in his hand.
"Isn't this the necklace we just looked at? How could it be..." I looked at the necklace in surprise. It was a silver necklace, and the pendant was a silver piece inlaid with a cat-shaped purple crystal.
"I saw that you just stared at this necklace for a long time. Maybe it was because of the price, so you didn't buy it. I think this necklace suits you very well. This cat looks so much like you, so I bought it while you were looking at other things.
.”
"This necklace is very expensive!" I was shocked. I saw the price tag of that necklace at the counter before, and I felt that it was not something that ordinary students like us could easily consume, so I gave up the idea of buying it. Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen
But he bought it and gave it to me.
"Don't worry, I felt guilty for not giving you any decent gift before. In order to buy you a decent gift, I have been saving money for a while. So this is not difficult! Let me bring it for you, Xiaoye!"
Jiang Chen picked up the necklace with both hands, stood up and walked behind me to put the necklace on for me.
"Thank you." I didn't refuse, but I just felt a little dazed. This was indeed the first solemn gift Jiang Chen gave me, right? I felt very happy, and there was a hint of sweetness in my heart.
He is a student now, and his family conditions are average, but he is willing to save money and live frugally to buy me gifts, which is very rare.
When Jiang Chen put the necklace on my neck, the necklace felt cold when it touched my skin, but his hands were warm and comfortable.
"Tell me, how did you suddenly get that necklace in your hand just now?"
"Have you forgotten that Master Tianhu gave us magic power when he went out?"
"How can you use that spiritual power so quickly? It's amazing!" I couldn't help but admired. It seems that Jiang Chen is really talented in cultivation, unlike me, who seems to have no talent in this area!
We had dinner and decided to go play again. There were too many people in the cinema, so I didn’t buy a ticket. Originally, I wanted to go to the amusement park to play some exciting games. But it’s still winter and the weather is very cold. Since the Snow Phoenix Bracelet
After being snatched away by Wen Feiyan and Wuming, I no longer had protection from the cold and became afraid of the cold.
So, in the end, we chose to stroll around in the store, and then went to the video game arcade to play for a while. Then, as evening approached, we went to a nearby beverage shop to have some drinks and chat. This date was completely
It’s an ordinary date for boys and girls. But I still complain that there are too few places to play games in winter.
"Hey, how about next time if winter doesn't pass and we can still make a date, let's go skiing and soak in hot springs?" Jiang Chen suggested.
"Speaking of skiing, I think of a place! Haha. I'm just afraid you'll get cold!" I said with a sly smile.
"where?"
"Haha, Ice and Snow City is Wu Feng's hometown! There is only winter there, and all year round there are white snow and ice mountains. How about it? If you have a chance next time, why don't you take you to ski there? Your suggestion is really good. Let's play in the snow there.
It must be great!”
Jiang Chen pursed his lips to express a little helplessness. He shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I'll freeze into ice cubes too." Then the two of us laughed together. However, I still think this proposal to go skiing in the Ice and Snow City can be considered.
one time.
When the time comes, let Leng Shuang Leng Xue help us make some snow for skiing, and then make an ice rink! If we freeze some statues or something, it will be a whole world of ice and snow! I guess I won’t have to buy tickets again in this life.
After playing, we have a ready-made ice and snow playground!
I was telling Jiang Chen about my wild ideas. Suddenly, my phone rang.
I picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from Sister Su. Could it be that she was urging us to go back? But it was not yet seven o'clock in the evening. Could it be that there was something important? Suddenly, I had a bad feeling.
After picking up the phone, I asked mechanically: "Sister, what's wrong?"
"Xiaoye, something happened to the Fox King! You can meet me at the Fox Clan later. I'll ask Secretary Wu to pick you up!" Sister Su's voice contained uneasiness and anxiety.
The thing I was worried about finally came. Sure enough, something bad happened. She said something happened to Youli but didn't say what happened. Was he injured, sick or... I didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Jiang Chen saw something wrong with my expression and hurriedly asked: "Xiaoye, what's wrong with you? Who's calling?"
"Sister Su, she said something happened to Youli."
"Something happened? Is it the nine-tailed fox king?"
"Um."
"What should we do now?"
In fact, even if something happens, Jiang Chen shouldn't get more involved. Because he is a human, it will not be good for him. Besides, if he goes to the Fox Clan with me, the Fox Clan people may also treat him if they find out that he is a human.
He is a threat.
I looked at Jiang Chen seriously and explained the situation to him. I wanted him to go home first or go back to the cat tribe to wait for me.
"Xiaoye, are you going to take it on your own if something happens? I want to go with you! Although that fox king is too kind to you and is my love rival. But after all, he has saved you and helped you a lot. You must
