Chapter 31: Past Life and Present Life

  The First Genocide's Grudge

  "That's it! If you're going to try to persuade me, then don't waste your breath anymore. I won't change my mind! Even if it means going to hell, I'll drag them down with me as a shield! And another thing, don't ruin my plan, or else..."

  Phoenix eyes reveal ruthless intentions, the meaning is clearer than ever. Now, Mei'er realizes that Wu Chen'er is actually her past life, and her soul has traveled here to fulfill her unfulfilled wishes. So, she only thinks about avenging herself after leaving this place, where can she listen to the old Taoist's advice?

  Of course, she did not expect what happened next!

  The old man sighed and shook his head, saying helplessly: "Mei'er, since you've made up your mind, I won't stop you! You're on your own!"

  After finishing speaking, the old Taoist's white figure slowly began to disappear into the white fog.

  "Hey! You haven't told me how I'm supposed to leave this broken place yet?" Mei'er chased after him, but where was Lao Dao's figure now?

  At the moment of utmost despair, a faint voice drifted through the air from the old Taoist priest: "Mei'er, you have half a piece of Jade Butterfly on your body, it will take you away from here. We will meet again!"

  The sound quickly disappeared, Mei'er subconsciously stroked the half-piece of jade butterfly given to her by the Western Xia king. Suddenly, the jade butterfly seemed to be able to sense her thoughts and emitted a strange glow!

  Mei'er had yet to recover from her shock when suddenly a strange gust of wind blew in, lifting her entire body up!

  She let out a loud cry of surprise!

  He suddenly opened his eyes, sat up abruptly, and only then realized that he was still on the bed in the inn. He reached out to touch his face, which was covered with sweat. As he thought back on what had just happened, his brow furrowed deeply. Had it all been a dream?

  That's strange, why did that dream feel so real?

  She patted her forehead, must have gotten rained on last night, that's why she had such a wild dream. Subconsciously touching the jade butterfly pendant close to her body, a warm sensation transmitted through the jade into her palm, followed by a gentle heartache.

  Wu Chen'er is her, she is Wu Chen'er, this is too strange! She looked at the jade in a daze, with more and more questions in her mind, this broken jade seems to have some weird aura too!

  If what the old Taoist said in her dream was true, then all those strange feelings she had before could be explained. It seemed that she had already merged into Wu Chen'er's body and had taken her as herself!

  Looked at the sky and found it was already late, shook her hair, threw away her somewhat disordered thoughts temporarily, jumped off the bed, picked up the clothes beside her and put them on.

  Before long, she had changed into men's clothing and stood in front of the copper mirror, looking elegant and refreshing. With a light flick of her fan, she looked just like a handsome young man!

  She smoothed out her clothes, smiled contentedly, and this outfit she bought in town was much more spirited than the aunt's dress that Ah Nan's stinky man had bought for her!

  Of course, with a change of clothes and a man's hairstyle, she can appear in front of people with confidence, and there is no need to hide from others anymore.

  "Mei'er!" Mei'er was just about to go out, but didn't expect Anan to rush in.

  Mei'er subconsciously took a step back, staring at him: "What's with the yelling so early in the morning?"

  Seeing that she was fine, he let out a sigh of relief, and his tense eyes immediately turned back to their usual ambiguous gaze: "It rained so heavily last night, yet you still ran out. Were you secretly meeting your lover behind my back?"

  An's words shocked Mei'er, yesterday because the inn was requisitioned by Xu Hongming in the name of the government office, so they could only come to the nearby town to stay.

  Of course, this time, Mei'er naturally didn't want to be in the same room as Ah Nan again. And he actually knew she went out last night? Did he follow her last night?

  Her face remained expressionless, but she glared at him coldly: "Who I went to see last night is my business, you don't need to interfere! And didn't your parents teach you that when entering someone else's room, especially a girl's room, you should knock on the door first?"

  "I'm telling you, I don't believe it myself. In the past when I entered other people's homes, I always remembered to knock on the door, but when entering your room, I forgot. Maybe it's because I was eager to see you! Or perhaps we're so familiar with each other that we can dispense with worldly etiquette." Ah Nan still had that lazy look on his face, making Mei Er want to give him a good scolding!

  Actually, he had just heard her cry out and thought she was in trouble, so he rushed in without regard. Seeing that she was unharmed, he felt a kind of relief.

  "Are you crazy!" Mei'er widened her eyes, thinking to herself that next time she must remember to lock the door properly. If not, when she was still changing clothes and he had pushed open the door, wouldn't she have been seen completely naked by him?

  Anan walked around Mei'er in a circle and finally stopped in front of her, clicking his tongue in praise: "This men's outfit looks great on you, just like that day at Fengyuelou, it's as if it was tailor-made for you. Fortunately, you're not a real man, or else the title of the world's number one handsome man would be yours!"

  "That's it! If I were a man, you should be a great hero!" Mei'er glared at him with a mixture of anger and annoyance, closed her fan, and sat back in front of the mirror.

  "Great hero?" Anan was still in a daze for a moment.

  "Yes! You didn't hear wrong, it's a great hero! But it's just a street hero!" Mei'er's words are always so venomous.

  Anan was taken aback for a moment before he suddenly understood, and burst out laughing loudly: "Mei'er, so you were cursing me in a roundabout way!"

  The girl combed her hair by herself, with a lazy look in her eyes.

  But An seemed not to have given up: "You still haven't told me where you went last night? You didn't really go out to meet a man, did you?" Dammit, his tone was very casual, but in his heart, he was still tense - what if he had actually guessed it?

  Mei'er heard this, and glared at him fiercely through the mirror: "Whether or not I go to meet men has nothing to do with you! You just take care of yourself, it's none of your business to interfere in my affairs!"

  An didn't fear death as he placed his hand on her shoulder, leaning in close to her, his enchanting breath intentionally blowing gently against her small face: "Of course it's my business, think about it, if you go out alone and encounter danger, what would you do? And there's an even more important point!"

  An's eyes became very serious: "Even more importantly, what if you were taken away by another man?" His eyes suddenly turned resentful, a perfect example of a resentful man.

  Mei'er was so amused by his gaze that she couldn't help but laugh and cry: "You really can talk nonsense!"

  An said, getting even closer to her: "I'm telling the truth, we've already been intimate so many times, you should at least take responsibility!" He couldn't help but sniff lightly, as she always had an irresistible fragrance that made him feel extremely comfortable.

  Of course, he didn't know that for the past three years, Wu Chen's old man had put a lot of thought into Wu Chen Er, every day using the world's most fragrant flower petals to soak her for more than a few hours. Over the past three years, those floral scents had already penetrated deep into Wu Chen Er's bones, so she was a woman who could emit floral scents from her very bones!

  The old man who had no regrets was using all his heart, everything just to let Wu Chen'er, who had woken up, use her resentment to avenge the woman and daughter he loved.

  But he never expected that the one who woke up was actually Mei, a modern soul who had crossed over, and all his plans for revenge were not even able to be carried out before he died at her hands!

  Man proposes, God disposes!

  Mei'er's face suddenly changed when she heard Anan mention this: "You still have the nerve to mention this, I warn you, next time you dare to be rude to me, I'll make you useless!" Being taken advantage of by him time and time again, she was already very unhappy in her heart. He actually dared to say it out loud, he's really asking for death!

  "They say a woman's heart is made of water, and it will break with just one squeeze. I'm starting to suspect that your heart isn't made of ice or stone...it's truly ruthless..." An hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly felt his throat tighten, and he stared at Mei'er in shock as her face, which had been close to his, turned ferocious: "You..."

  He really didn't think she would change her face so quickly, this fierce gaze, he wasn't seeing it for the first time, just the first time at such a close distance, and he actually felt a chill run down his spine.

  "I warned you, don't mention my heart! I'll say it again, I have no heart! If you dare to say it next time, I'll dig out your heart!" Mei'er's every word was like a spark from between her teeth, and the fingers grasping Anan's knuckles turned white with force.

  "Remember this! Don't mention it again!" Seeing An's eyes turn red from suffocation, she loosened her grip on his neck.

  She can kill someone in the blink of an eye, but this man is not her target!

  Perhaps it was Ah Nan's words that touched the deepest part of her heart, her tightly clenched fists were still pale, her body trembling slightly with anger, every time she was mentioned, she could feel that piercing pain, this hatred would make her lose her mind in an instant, and also give her a destructive impulse!

  "Sorry......" An didn't expect that his joke would make her so resentful and sad, it felt like something had scratched the tip of his heart, he reached out to pull her into his arms, but was stopped by the chill emanating from her body.

  Mei'er gently closed her beautiful eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to suppress all her anger to the bottom of her heart. When she opened her eyes again, the ferocity from earlier was gone.

  She slowly turned around and saw Ah Nan's bewildered eyes, was he worried about her? Suddenly wanted to see if his face also had the same worry.

  Her hand unconsciously stretched out towards him, but halfway through, she slowly clenched her fist and withdrew it. Why did she want to know that all the men in the world were the same, equally hypocritical?

  "Sorry..." An also didn't know where he got the courage from, but he grasped her hand and pulled her into his arms. He didn't know how to express his apology, he just wanted her to know that he was truly sorry!

  "Let me go!" Mei'er, who was being held in Ah Nan's arms, secretly frowned. The unique masculine scent on his body always made her feel uneasy, and she wanted to use coldness to exclude everything, struggling with force, wanting to break free from his embrace.

  "Sorry......" An didn't let go of her, his iron-like arms tightly embracing her, not allowing her to break free. Suddenly, he wanted to rip off the strong disguise she had been trying so hard to maintain.

  A woman has the right to be weak, she shouldn't have to be so strong!

  His arms were warm, just like his second brother used to be. Thinking of her second brother, a weak string in her heart was gently plucked. She had thought that the person she loved was Shang Li Tian, whom she had married.

  Until one day, she discovered that her second brother had been silently loving her from the very beginning. Seeing his despondent figure turning and leaving, her heart ached slightly. However, she married San Li Tian, her third brother, as she only wanted to be with him till the end, thus disappointing her second brother.

  Mei'er, lost in her memories, forgot to push Anan away and instead let him hold her in his arms. Anan thought that her heart was starting to soften and subconsciously gently kissed her hair!

  But they forgot to close the door, and the shopkeeper was just about to come in to refill their tea, but as soon as he stepped inside, he saw this awkward scene, let out a cry of surprise, and subconsciously retreated back outside!

  It was the shop assistant's exclamation that brought Mei back to reality, and she hastily pushed An aside, calling out to the shop assistant: "Shop assistant, bring in the tea!"

  "Alright, sir!" The shop assistant came in and couldn't help but stare at the two men for a few more seconds, thinking to himself, these two big men are actually hugging each other, what's going on?

  "Alright! Just put down the tea and go!" Mei'er knew he had misunderstood, didn't want to explain, and waved her hand to signal the shop assistant to leave.

  The shopkeeper hastily retreated, his heart still racing with excitement and secretly despising them, never expecting that the two men were that kind of people.

  In ancient times, it was very strange for a man to like another man, no wonder that shopkeeper had such a big reaction.

  An Na sat down opposite Mei Er after she came back to her senses, and burst out laughing: "That little kid actually thought I was with you... Haha haha~~~"

  "Is it funny?" Mei'er gave him a white eye, took a big sip of tea, slightly frowned between her eyebrows, suddenly stood up and said expressionlessly: "We should get going!" After that, she lifted her foot and walked outwards. She didn't want to waste any more time staying here.

  "Mei'er!" Anan also followed and chased after her.

  As they walked down the stairs, they also found that the shop owner was staring at them with a strange look in his eyes. It's estimated that the shopkeeper had talked too much, and Mei'er didn't mind, walking straight out and leaving Ah Nan alone to settle the bill.

  She had just walked out of the store, but unexpectedly saw a familiar figure, and hastily followed after him. Perhaps she was in too much of a hurry and didn't notice the stone under her feet, and with one careless move, her whole body lost its balance and fell backwards!

  She thought she would definitely fall on her back, but unexpectedly a strong and powerful pair of hands suddenly stretched out from behind her waist, gently pulling her to the side!

  Her soul still unsettled, she raised her head in astonishment, but fell into a pair of gentle eyes. The four eyes met, yet seemed to come from a distant gaze, the most familiar stranger from two worlds apart!
