He didn’t deliberately want to bully Xi Ning, but he felt just so petty. A few days ago, he could still resist his feelings and ignored Xi Ning, but when Xi Ning was in his arms, he didn’t want to let him go. Since there was no way to control his feelings, he had to do something to make his heart feel better.
The ground was cold, so Si TuZhao hugged Xi Ning back to the bed. Even though he bullied Xi Ning just now, Xi Ning still hugged him and didn’t want to let go. Si TuZhao leaned against the bed with him.
His little dragon was still so clingy, but what did he think of himself? Si TuZhao felt very uncomfortable.
As things stood, he was also reluctant to leave and let go of Xi Ning.
“Now tell me, who is Song Zhou?” There’s no way he didn’t care about this. He would accept it even if he was another person’s substitute, and just wanted to hear the exact answer from Xi Ning. “Don’t lie.”
The way Xi Ning usually looked at him and his attitude towards him. Even if he had liked others before, Si TuZhao didn’t believe that Xi Ning had not been sincere towards himself.
Si TuZhao had a gloomy face at the moment, yet he was still hugging himself tenderly. Xi Ning was both distressed and happy, and said, “You may not believe me, but what I said is true…… You are Song Zhou.”
Xi Ning couldn’t use other words to deceive him. Besides, Song Zhou couldn’t be found in this world either.
“Actually, before I met you, I had a dream that lasted for a long time.”
Xi Ning concealed some part of the truth and described the previous world as his dream while trying to explain it to Si TuZhao.
He said that his dream felt very real. In his dream, he fell in love with a man named Song Zhou. Unfortunately, the dream stopped abruptly and never appeared again.
Later, he met Si TuZhao who sneaked into the Immortal Palace disguised as a low-level devil, and when he first saw him, he found that he looked very similar to the person in his dream.
“I was poisoned and delirious that day, and thought that I was back in my dream, so I just……”
Si TuZhao frowned after listening, and said suspiciously, “Cultivators in the fairy world can dream too?”
Xi Ning didn’t think of this when he said it, and he didn’t know how to answer at the moment. “This……I don’t know.”
He was worried that Si TuZhao would not believe it, and hurriedly emphasized it again. “Song Zhou is you, not someone else.”
Si TuZhao was silent for a long time. His expression gradually softened, and he said as if he was talking to himself, “……could it be the past life?”
What they experienced in the previous world could be counted as their past life to some extent, but only Xi Ning remembered it and Si TuZhao did not remember it. Xi Ning heaved a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement. “It’s possible.”
Si TuZhao’s guess is not without reason. Xi Ning had never been out of the Immortal Palace since he was a child and had very little contact with others. A person with the name Song Zhou was also not found in the Immortal Palace. He also recalled back then, when he saw Xi Ning, he immediately fell in love at first sight. If Xi Ning hadn’t lied to himself, this seemed to make sense.
It turned out that he was not a substitute for another person, but this was an extension of fate from their past life? Si TuZhao’s mood suddenly changed, but his face did not show it. He pinched Xi Ning’s face and deliberately said fiercely, “I am willing to believe you, but if I find out that you are lying to me……”
“I will take you back to my palace and lock you up,” he whispered this sentence next to Xi Ning’s ear, as if whispering love words, “and then I will punish you.”
Xi Ning trembled, unable to tell if he was shy or scared, and he buried his head and answered with a soft voice, “Okay……”
Even though Si TuZhao was threatening Xi Ning, he actually didn’t dare to really do anything to him. He sat quietly holding Xi Ning for a while, and suddenly said, “Do you remember anything else in the dream? Tell me more about it.”
Xi Ning was afraid that he would be suspicious, so he didn’t dare to elaborate too much. He only said that the house and clothes in the dream were very different from here.
Si TuZhao listened carefully, and finally found a pen and paper for Xi Ning to draw and show him.
Xi Ning is an average painter, he simply drew some modern things on the paper, and finally drew a big three-layer lunch box.
Si TuZhao looked at it several times, and he really found a sense of familiarity, but it felt fleeting, and he didn’t think of it much.
He collected all the papers on which Xi Ning drew things and returned to the bed to kiss Xi Ning. “It’s not early anymore. Go to bed, my dear?”
Xi Ning heard him call himself this, and he wanted to cry. “You finally are not angry with me anymore?”
Si TuZhao felt a little regretful when he saw it, and touched Xi Ning’s dragon horns. “I’m not angry anymore. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have ignored you.”
“I even pretended to be a servant and went to the palace where you live to look for you before,” Xi Ning still complained about that time. “But then, you didn’t want to meet any guests and didn’t accept anything. The devils at the door also drove us away.”
“Yes, I know.”
