Дневник похудения Су Юаньюань

Глава 20

Su Chenche shook his head like a rattle-drum, his eyes innocent.

Knowing what kind of person this guy was, Shen Zhili still felt a momentary pang of guilt when she met those clear eyes...

Shen Zhili inwardly pounded the ground; this guy was such a good actor!

She silently turned her head away.

Su Chenche's voice was gentle: "Um... Zhili, if you like it here, how about I take you to see all the beautiful scenery in the future?"

Out of sight, out of mind.

Shen Zhili: "...Let's talk about it later."

"We'll have to talk about that later."

A strange and sinister voice suddenly pierced through the air. Shen Zhili turned around abruptly and saw several men in dark red bodysuits appear out of nowhere behind her.

Although she had only seen them once, Shen Zhili could tell that the patterns on these men's clothes were very similar to those of the people Ye Qianqian had brought last time.

They belong to the Demonic Cult!

The leader was a man whose face was almost entirely obscured by his hair and an eye patch. He gave a sinister smile, revealing a set of chilling white teeth: "Young Master Twelve Nights, it's quite unexpected that you're still alive and well. But this time..."

Before he could finish his impassioned speech, Su Chenche pulled on the reins, turned around decisively, lashed the whip, and with a neigh, the horse galloped away at high speed.

"Wait until I finish speaking!"

Enraged, the man shouted hoarsely at his subordinates who were looking at each other in bewilderment, "What are you looking at? Chase after them!"

Completely defenseless, Shen Zhili was jolted and disoriented by the carriage, her stomach churning and she felt like vomiting. She clung to the edge of the carriage, her face pale, and cried out to Su Chenche, "Leave me behind..."

They're here to see you anyway, it's none of my business...

Amidst his busy work, Su Chenche turned around, his gaze resolute: "Zhili, I know you don't want to drag me down, but I won't abandon you."

This guy did it on purpose!

Shen Zhili struggled to grip the edge of the carriage with both hands: "...Please, I'm begging you, put me down!"

Su Chenche whipped the horse's rump even more fiercely, turned back and touched Shen Zhili's face, saying, "Zhili, trust me this once, we'll both be fine."

I really want to believe you, but I feel like throwing up!

Shen Zhili leaned out of the carriage and groaned, "Ugh..."

The few members of the demonic sect who were chasing after them suddenly felt something rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed. They hurriedly raised their hands to block it, but a nauseating smell overwhelmed them.

"ah……"

"Ahhhhh..."

"Aa ...

The demonic cult members behind them slowed down, hesitant to act rashly.

What is this?! What a powerful hidden weapon!

After vomiting, Shen Zhili, who was clearly much more refreshed, breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, straightened up and was about to speak when her pupils suddenly contracted sharply.

She scrambled over and grabbed Su Chenche's clothes, yelling, "Stop the car, you bastard! There's a cliff ahead!!!!!!!!!"

Chapter 18

Shen Zhili reaffirmed once again that she should cherish life and stay away from Su Chenche.

With the cliff so close, Su Chenche held firmly onto the horse's reins, showing no intention of jumping off.

Shen Zhili desperately tugged at Su Chenche's sleeve. The howling wind stung her face as she trembled, clutching the fabric in her hands. "Su Chenche, calm down! Don't do anything rash..."

Even if you're feeling down, you don't have to drag me into it!

Su Chenche freed his hand and grasped Shen Zhili's hand in return.

The warmth emanating from his hand was both comforting and resolute. From Shen Zhili's position, she could only vaguely see Su Chenche's profile, his lips slightly curved, his expression calm and serene: "Zhili, trust me."

Knowing that he was lying through his teeth and blatantly bluffing, Shen Zhili's heart still stirred inexplicably at this moment.

Believe in him...

I believe he will resolve the current predicament, and I believe he won't hurt her...

Shen Zhili pinched the bridge of her nose. Well... at this point, there was no other way but to believe him!

In the blink of an eye, the cliff was already within reach.

Su Chenche stepped onto the carriage shaft and quickly retreated, rummaging around inside the carriage for a while before taking out something.

He was so fast that Shen Zhili didn't even have time to see what he was taking before she felt an arm around her waist and then she was suddenly lifted into the air!

The feeling of weightlessness momentarily stunned Shen Zhili. Suddenly, a huge object rose up behind her, casting a massive shadow that blotted out the sky, and her descent slowed down instantly.

Shen Zhili was stunned for a long time before she finally found her voice: "Su... Su Chenche... what are you doing?"

Su Chenche held her tighter, caressing her waist twice as if reluctant to let go, before lowering his head to Shen Zhili's shoulder, his warm breath brushing against her collarbone, causing a slight tingling sensation: "Zhili, is the scenery beautiful?"

Shen Zhili froze again... but pushing Su Chenche away under these circumstances would be tantamount to suicide.

After holding back for a moment, Shen Zhili gestured to what he was holding in his other hand and asked, "What is this?"

Su Chenche: "In short, it's a giant inflated umbrella." He smiled shyly. "I've had it in the carriage for a long time and have always wanted to try it out."

“Try it…” Shen Zhili’s eyes widened. “Have you been waiting for a chance to jump off a cliff all this time?”

Su Chenche nodded and blinked, saying, "This is the fastest way to get to Wumo Manor. I originally wanted to give it to you as a surprise."

Shen Zhili: "I would rather die than admit that this is a surprise..."

Su Chenche wrapped his arms around Shen Zhili and rested his chin on Shen Zhili's head: "Zhili, enjoy the view, okay? You've probably never seen anything like this before..."

Although she felt some resistance, Shen Zhili couldn't help but look up.

Everything high in the sky seemed to be shrouded in a light mist, appearing hazy and indistinct. Rivers flowed around the crisscrossing mulberry fields, eaves rose one after another, mountains rose and fell, and forests grew in clusters. Looking out, it was a vast and boundless scene that was breathtaking.

A gentle breeze caressed my face, and I felt relaxed. In such a beautiful setting, I even felt small.

Shen Zhili slowly opened her mouth, reluctantly saying, "It is beautiful, but..."

Su Chenche had already picked up where she left off, his coaxing voice ringing in her ear: "Zhili, if you stay with me, I'll take you to see even more beautiful scenery, uh... and you won't have to spend a single penny. I can take care of all your needs, from food and clothing to lodging and transportation."

...His words were actually...very tempting!

Upon hearing the "crack" sound, a part of Shen Zhili felt a pang of despair.

At the same time... something else collapsed as well.

Shen Zhili exclaimed in horror: "Ah... why is this thing falling down!"

Su Chenche looked up and made a simple assessment: "It should be... unable to withstand the pressure, the airbag ruptured."

Shen Zhili exclaimed anxiously, "What should we do then! How can you be so calm!" Her eyes lit up, "Do you have a backup plan?"

Su Chenche thought for a moment and shook his head.

Shen Zhili went berserk, grabbing Su Chenche's collar with her other hand and speaking rapidly: "Su Chenche, stop looking at me! Think of something! There's not much distance left! If we fall any further, we'll both be dead! Hey... why are you holding my hand? Do you still have the mind to take advantage of me at a time like this?!"

Su Chenche covered Shen Zhili's hand, gently enveloping it, and then smiled: "I'm here for you."

Each word was spoken slowly and deliberately, as if time itself had slowed down at that moment.

Shen Zhili's mind raced, several thoughts flashing through his head, before he blurted out, "...You're not allowed to die either, do you hear me!"

Su Chenche smiled and replied, "Okay."

Despite the constant obstruction from tree branches, the speed of the fall remained uncontrollable.

The intense feeling of weightlessness rendered Shen Zhili speechless, and she could only gasp for breath to relieve the tightness and pain in her chest.

In the blink of an eye, with a heavy thud, she landed on the ground.

In the last moment before she lost consciousness, she vaguely felt someone move and cushion her fall.

After that, I have no memory of it.

"Huh, why are there two people here?"

"Wait, it seems he's still alive."

"Hey, this man is quite good-looking. The Palace Master will definitely like him if we bring him back."

"And what about this woman?"

"...This woman, could we take her home to clean the chamber pot?"

Bright Moon Palace.

The phrase "Boundless beauty under the bright moon" refers to the mistress of the Bright Moon Palace.

This palace master had three great passions in his life: first, to taste all the finest wines in the world; second, to read all the secret manuals in the world; and third, to collect all the beauties in the world.

The first two are fine, but the last one... unfortunately, the mistress of Mingyue Palace is a woman.

Some righteous people came to fight against her, but they didn't expect that not only was Ji Mingyue highly skilled in martial arts and extremely difficult to deal with, but even the men she had gathered were all loyal to her. As a result, everyone lost the time to bother with her.

After that, Ji Mingyue gradually disappeared from the martial arts world. No one knew where she went, and of course, no one cared where this female demon went to wreak havoc...

The mistress of Mingyue Palace is very happy today because she has gained a new beauty.

Although the beauty was unconscious for three days before waking up, it did not diminish her most beautiful and handsome face. Ji Mingyue guarded that face for three days, liking it more and more, and her heart was itching more and more. This face was simply made for her. If she did not win it over, it would be the death of heaven and earth!

Fortunately, she had enough patience.

The beauty slowly opened her eyes. Ji Mingyue straightened her pale yellow silk dress and adjusted the jade fan hairpin in her hair, revealing a gentle smile that was just right.

"You're awake?"

Her fan-like eyelashes fluttered gently. The beauty looked at her, parted her thin lips slightly, and asked with a hint of suspicion, "Mother?"

Ji Mingyue felt her smile crack and shatter, and she forced a smile as she said, "I am not your mother."

The beauty turned her gaze, her clear amber eyes blinking twice, a captivating look of confusion slowly appearing: "Where is this? I..."

Ji Mingyue's heart stirred, and she put her hand on the beauty's shoulder, saying, "This is your home, and I am your wife. Have you forgotten all that?"

The beauty stared at her with her clear eyes for a long time before coughing twice and saying, "No... I just want to ask, where is my Zhili?"
