Ch 320: if Line ๏ผ2๏ผ
Gu Qingyin reflected, “What’s the big deal? How could I get so angry? Divorce isn’t something you can just casually throw around! It hurts feelings too much!” She cleared her throat and asked, “Then do you know you were wrong?”
Huo Yunjing was noncommittal and countered, “Were you jealous?”
Gu Qingyin pondered for two seconds and nodded, “I guess I was.”
Huo Yunjing was satisfied and nodded his head with noble restraint. “I’ll be more careful to maintain a proper distance from members of the opposite gender in the future.”
The keyword triggered Gu Qingyin’s distant memoryโHuo Yunjing had a Plum, who had dreamed of marrying him since she was a girl. She had argued with Huo Yunjing because that Plum pretended to be drunk after drinking and threw herself into Huo Yunjing’s arms, and he hadn’t dodged in time. She threw the Plum into the swimming pool to sober up on the spot.
Gu Qingyin narrowed her eyes, recalling that at that time, they didn’t seem to have broken through the final layer of window paper yet. She was very disappointed in Huo Yunjing’s behavior. The next day, they had another big fight, and she took a commission and left. The last thing she said was divorce.
“What about that Plum of yours?” Gu Qingyin’s eyebrows were serious. “Has she given up on you?”
Huo Yunjing sighed, “She doesn’t have those kinds of feelings for me.”
“Heh.” Gu Qingyin sneered, “You understand women very well? Or do you only particularly understand that Plum of yours?”
Huo Yunjing choked, feeling like no matter how he answered, it would be wrong.
Gu Qingyin shrugged, “So, what’s the basis for your so-called ‘she doesn’t have those feelings for me’?”
Huo Yunjing retorted, “Do you have any basis?”
Gu Qingyin proudly puffed out her chest, “I’m a Taoist Master, no one can escape my eyes. Not to mention she blatantly provoked me, who does she think I am, someone with a good temper?”
Huo Yunjing frowned, “She provoked you?”
Gu Qingyin remembered, there was another reason for their argument: Huo Yunjing didn’t have eyes, and she didn’t open her mouth. They kept everything bottled up and were angry at each other.
After all, it was her first time being moved, and she was proud and arrogant, always feeling that whoever spoke first would lose, and she didn’t dare to show her feelings too obviously. Now, after experiencing so many things and being doted on by Huo Yunjing for so many years, she already had enough courage to say “I love you” loudly.
“Yes!” Gu Qingyin pouted unhappily, “She threw herself into your arms and smiled at me with raised eyebrows, if she wasn’t provoking me, what was she doing? It’s only thanks to my good upbringing that I didn’t slap her twice on the spot, I never personally hit trash.”
For the first time, Huo Yunjing began to doubt his own judgment. “I understand, I’ll ask her clearly and give you an explanation.” After a pause, he sighed and softened in front of her for the first time, “I’m sorry, I misunderstood you.”
Gu Qingyin raised an eyebrow, “You believe what I said?”
Huo Yunjing nodded, “You wouldn’t lie. Since you said it, then she must have done it.”
Gu Qingyin snorted, “I guess you understand me.” She waved her hand, “I’m going to sleep, you should rest early too.” She went back to the bedroom with light steps, sat on the bed and waited for a long time, suddenly a look of doubt appeared on her face, “Why haven’t I woken up yet? This dream is too long and too real, right?”
Including before, she thought the plane ride would pass by quickly, but she really sat for several hours.
Gu Qingyin shook her head, lay down on the bed, thinking that maybe she would be fine after a sleep.
Waking up at dawn, Gu Qingyin woke up in warm and familiar arms. She turned around and threw herself into Huo Yunjing’s arms, saying in a sticky and clingy voice, “Husband, I had a dream last night, I dreamed that…”
Gu Qingyin suddenly stopped talking, because she heard Huo Yunjing’s heartbeat. Was she still in the dream? No, that’s not right. This isn’t a dream. Could it be that she traveled to a parallel universe again? But that shouldn’t be possible, no one would attack her again, and she herself didn’t feel anything at all.
After thinking it over, Gu Qingyin thought of that strange vase. She felt confused when she saw it at the time, but she didn’t take it seriously, only thinking that she was sleepy. She didn’t expect that the vase would have this kind of function!
“What did you dream about?” Huo Yunjing asked in a hoarse voice, his arm tightening around her as a habit.
Gu Qingyin came back to her senses, suppressed the panic in her heart, and tried to make her voice sound the same as before, “I dreamed that the children had all grown up. Xingye took over your job, Xinghai became a very talented original singer, and Xingchen went to play e-sports and even won the world championship. After retiring, he became a Taoist Master.”
Huo Yunjing chuckled, “You even arranged their careers?”
Gu Qingyin gave a dry laugh, “It’s just a dream, what they want to do in the future, of course, still depends on themselves.” She sat up, “I’ll go wash up and see the babies first, you can sleep a little longer.”
Huo Yunjing didn’t suspect anything else, gave a “hmm” sound, and closed his eyes again. Gu Qingyin always got up very early, he was already used to it.
Gu Qingyin went into the bathroom and tried many methods, finally confirming that she had traveled again. This time it wasn’t like a soul-transference, and of course it wasn’t a body-transference, it was like she had awakened the consciousness of a certain day in the future.
Because she felt that this world was still her original world, she was still herself, only the timeline was different. Now she had changed a part of history, she didn’t know if it would have any impact on her future self.
Since it was the effect of a treasure, there should be a time limit. Then she should be calm and do whatever she could to make up for regrets.
Gu Qingyin exhaled and her eyes became firm. After washing up, she followed her usual habit, first took a look at the children, then went to the backyard to practice Meditative Practice for an hour. When she finished and went back, it was just the right time for Huo Yunjing to come downstairs for breakfast.
Gu Qingyin smiled and said good morning, and was about to go upstairs to take a shower and change clothes.
“Qingyin.” When she brushed past him, Huo Yunjing suddenly spoke, “There’s a banquet tonight, will you go with me?”
Gu Qingyin readily agreed.
Huo Yunjing: “I’ll pick you up tonight.”
By the time Gu Qingyin came downstairs, Huo Yunjing had already gone to work. After she had breakfast, she plunged into the baby room, dressed the three babies neatly, put them in the stroller, and pushed them to the yard to get some fresh air and sunshine.
Gu Qingyin stared at the children playing all morning, and time passed very quickly. In the past, she would never have imagined that she would find watching children, such a boring thing, so interesting.
Of course, she didn’t just watch them all morning for nothing. She discovered that Little Xingchen’s Yin-Yang Eyes were much clearer than when he grew up. He would always stare at the souls of passing birds and wandering Wild Ghosts for a while.
Little Xingye and Little Xinghai couldn’t see them at all.
Gu Qingyin injected a stream of Soul Power into Little Xingchen’s body to stimulate his spirituality. At the same time, she also felt sorry that Huo Xingchen should have been a Taoist Master with extraordinary talent, but he wasted his talent by accident and took such a long detour.
Fortunately, this time they wouldn’t leave behind such regrets.
In the afternoon, the evening gown to wear to the banquet was delivered, along with a professional styling team.
Two hours later, Gu Qingyin was ready. Huo Yunjing also returned. The couple took each other’s hands, got into the car, and went to the banquet together.
