Chapter 892 - 695: Kiss
This Heart Scale is actually in her hand, more conclusive than any evidence!
Xue Yansi knew clearly that he had cultivated the Bone of Devouring, and from now on, it would be difficult for him to truly love anyone. The meaning of the Heart Scale seemed to have lost its chance of use to him.
But aside from these considerations, as a Snake Beast, he should better understand the weight of a Heart Scale, which can only be given to the one he loves.
If he never encounters someone he truly loves, then he will never give it away.
Whether it was the past him or the current him, he couldn’t possibly hand over something so important to anyone casually! Let alone to a female from a Foreign Clan!
Besides, he didn’t believe anyone could rob it from him.
More importantly, Xue Yansi’s intense and irresistible attraction to Shen Tang was genuine.
Even more real than the Heart Scale.
Could it be... did he really forget some important memory, forget her?
Xue Yansi stared at the Heart Scale in a daze for a long time before finally speaking with a low and hoarse voice:
"What were we like before?"
Shen Tang heard this and was first stunned, then her nose couldn’t help but feel sour, yet she smiled happily.
Her smile was crescent-shaped, like a small moon, just like a cute little cat, even more sincere and moved than before, even with a hint of tears in her eyes.
She said, "Alright, if you want to know, I’ll tell you."
For Xue Yansi to ask this way indicated that he was slowly accepting that he did indeed have a past with her.
And this past, for some unknown reason, had been forgotten by him.
The current him genuinely wanted to retrieve this memory.
Shen Tang began to slowly recount the events between them.
From initially meeting like enemies to gradually truly getting to know each other, and then unknowingly developing feelings.
She succinctly recounted the many events that happened between them.
When she spoke of the final battle, the Star Gate battle, Shen Tang’s voice became noticeably heavier than at the start.
"...Back then, I risked my life to close the Star Gate."
"After I died, you went into the Star Gate with those people from the Ghost Snake Clan, then... there was no news."
"Fortunately, I didn’t actually leave at that time. After resurrecting, I constantly tried to find you, but unfortunately, there was no clue for several months, until recently, I finally saw you, only to discover you had forgotten the past and seemed to become a different person."
Shen Tang gently touched his cold and handsome face, her throat moved slightly, saying somewhat sadly:
"A little over a month ago, when I first got news of you, you were still a wanted criminal of the Ghost Snake Clan. When I found you, you had already become the Young Master of the Ghost Snake Clan and were engaged to Luo Ying... I don’t know what you experienced during this time, but I feel like there’s definitely deception involved!"
As Xue Yansi listened to her, his gaze inevitably became a little dazed.
Though his memories were absent, everything Shen Tang recounted seemed familiar. On the contrary, the images in his mind where he and Luo Ying faced difficulties together gradually became blurry, as if covered by something.
Strangely, the parts concerning Luo Ying in his memory resembled her version of events in certain ways.
Although not exactly the same, it was as if the story was adapted from the same foundation.
Could his memory... really have been altered?
If someone else said these things, Xue Yansi might not care at all, but when the words came from Shen Tang, he believed them without reason.
His slender, slightly cool hand clasped her hand, pressing it to his chest.
Under his palm, the heart beat forcefully like a melting glacier.
He said, "I believe you."
His heart told him so, he trusted her.
"...But I’m sorry, I still can’t remember those memories."
"It’s okay, then let’s take our time thinking about it, I’ll think along with you." Shen Tang wrapped her arms around his back, burying her face in his shoulder, holding back the moisture in her eyes.
It wasn’t sadness; it was tears of joy.
Xue Yansi felt the warmth of the body in his embrace, and his initially relaxed posture tensed slightly.
This was the first time they were so close again, but this time lacking the resistance from last time, instead bringing an unspeakable calm to his heart.
Along with a sense of indescribable fondness and dependency.
His hand unconsciously dropped to Shen Tang’s waist, as if he only wanted to hold her tightly. Just by holding her, his body instinctively felt delight.
Then he heard her continue speaking near his ear, "While I was helping you recuperate these days, I discovered another foreign power inside you apart from the Devouring Power, intentionally altering your memory."
"You haven’t been able to recover your memory and have gained so many false fragments, it must be because of that meddling."
Xue Yansi’s eyes flickered with a trace of shock, followed by deep anger.
Someone dared to do this to him!
And his past self, how could he have overlooked and allowed the opportunity for this?
It seemed like to regain his memory, he must first resolve that entity.
Yet he had to admit, his current self seemed powerless against it and was even unclear about what it was.
Shen Tang slightly released him, seeing the man’s handsome brow furrowed, then gently stroked it smooth, comforting, "Don’t worry, we’ll tackle these things together gradually. Right now I am most grateful..."
"I finally found you!"
Not as the Ghost Snake Clan’s Young Master Xue Yansi, but as her little White Snake, Xue Yinzhou.
Her lips curved into a light smile, and she leaned in to kiss him.
Xue Yinzhou’s body lightly trembled, his breath instantly unraveled.
The female’s lips were soft and sweet, and at the moment they came against his, it felt like electricity coursed through his limbs and bones, making him tingle all over, even more rigid.
But soon, his tense body gradually relaxed. He was immersed in this kiss, his purple phoenix eyes becoming obscure and deep, where tides of emotion surged.
Deep within his memory, those thoughts and love sealed by fog surged again like tides.
He no longer needed to restrain his desires.
Xue Yinzhou closed his eyes, raised his hands to thread through her ink-black cloud-like hair, clasped her nape, and deepened the long-missed kiss.
From gentle exploration, it gradually transformed into domineering demand.
Though in his current memory, he had never been so intimate with a female, these actions seemed instinctual. At the moment he touched her, at the moment he scented her fragrance, it was akin to a flood uncontrolled, completely letting go.
So fragrant.
So gentle, so soft.
So liked it...
The body’s intuition and instinct so vividly told him that this was true love and desire.
Xue Yansi’s hand clasped her nape, focused intently on kissing, his lips growing hotter, while the other hand wrapped her waist, pressing her against him, the force gradually strengthening.
Their breaths gradually intertwined.
Shen Tang was kissed by him until her breathing went awry.
Moments later, Xue Yinzhou reluctantly released her, his breath also somewhat ragged.
His long cold white fingers softly wiped the moisture from her lips, his cold sharp eyes softened significantly, "Give me time, I will retrieve my memories."
Shen Tang’s cheeks flushed slightly, with eyes moist looking at him, smiling and nodding, "Okay, I’ll help you look."
Xue Yinzhou pulled her into his embrace, lying down together on the bed.
The Snake Clan was naturally cold-blooded and emotionless, Xue Yinzhou never felt love had any significance to him. But only at this moment, did he feel different, holding her his whole heart settled.
As if she inherently belonged to him, and he was born for her. Only by holding her in his arms, could the empty heart be filled.
That indescribable feeling, not just the body’s fulfillment, more like the soul finally complete.
At this moment, he had no other thoughts, only one, to keep her by his side forever.
Concerning fiancée, engagement ceremony, Ghost Snake Clan’s wanted list ... all were cast aside by him.
However, the Ghost Snake Clan wouldn’t be so tranquil.
Specially trained tracking experts in the clan spent extensive effort to finally find Xue Yinzhou’s whereabouts.
