Yue Mingkong was also no ordinary person. Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and his expression immediately recovered. There were no visible abnormalities on her beautiful and flawless face.
“Chang, why did you say that? Are you not the one who wants to get divorced? After all, you always hated me. ”
He tilted his head and looked at Gu Changge with a sad expression.
Her cute and funny expression gave rise to a different charm. No one would have thought that she was — the fierce Crown Princess of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty, whose prestige loomed in Heaven, and ignoring everything in the world from the top — will be able to show such a face.
Gu Changge did not seem to be surprised by his response. Without changing her smile, she continued, "I'm just kidding, Bingkong, so why so serious?"
“I think you hate me so much.”
Yue Mingkong lowered his head and muttered to himself. He did his best to maintain his previous appearance before Gu Changge. Back in the day, he would always act like this to please her, but all he received in return was his indifference.
In order to make sure she would not find any difference between her actions in the past and the present, Yue Mingkong deliberately tried not to act differently than she used to.
She was exactly like she used to be in front of Gu Changge: 'humble, careful, and in love to the extent that she was willing to die for him ...'
Right now, he was even more convinced that Gu Changge was just like him; he must have also retreated from the future! Otherwise, he would not have tested it with his words.
Yue Mingkong was well aware of her future husband's terror, so she couldn't help but be wary. Until he is convinced that he is not backing down, he will not do anything that can reveal the fact that he has retreated from the future.
Since he could kill him once in their previous life, then his abilities in this life were definitely worse than before!
Yue Mingkong felt stifled at the thought of this, but he quickly calmed his heart and cooled his mind. He felt that he should tread more carefully in the future. After all, his actions over the past half year were completely different from his past life actions.
With Gu Changge's sharp mind, he had probably already made some guesses, and had just tested it now. Specially? Her gentle appearance now was in stark contrast to what she used to do in their past lives, and it was increasingly confusing to her.
As for why he was wearing this facade? He thought that it should also be a test from him.
Otherwise, how could one explain his actions that were completely different from what he knew from their past lives?
"Pride, I realize that you've changed a lot over the past few months."
Yue Mingkong's heart sank when she heard those words, and she realized that Gu Changge was looking at her with an expression of intrigue. He couldn't guess what was on his mind.
She's feeling nervous.
Could he really know something? The fact that he had retreated from the future was his greatest secret, and he could not let others know about it.
“Change, what are you talking about? How do I change in any way? You are a different person; you have never treated me with such gentleness before, so what happened this time?
Yue Mingkong's eyes showed a precise doubt as he stared at Gu Changge with the intention to look at him. Right now, she had to bring out her best acting skills to make sure she could not find any flaws.
Still, Yue Mingking could not suppress his nervousness. She realized that even though she was the Crown Princess of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty, who could dictate the life and death of many people, her confidence could not help but deflate as she stood in front of Gu Changge.
He was actually suppressing her no matter what she did!
“Indeed, it's too much for me to treat you like that! But don't worry, I won't treat you like that in the future.”
Gu Changge showed a guilty and self-blame expression in response to his words, and said with a sigh.
"Angpe ... Changge, are you telling me the truth?"
His response made Yue Mingkong dumbfounded. She could not help but rather stutter as she looked at him with her beautiful eyes wide open. Could it be that he really felt embarrassed after retreating into the past, and meant it with what he said?
He did not believe that such guilt-filled words would come out of Gu Changge's mouth! After all, he was a cruel and cold-blooded person.
His heart went awry, and he wondered if he could forgive her if her words were true?
No, he can't be that easy.
He had always used and hurt her in their previous lives, and in the end, he had even killed her in cold blood. How could he be so weak and lose his willpower after hearing a few words from her?
Gu Changge was his sworn enemy!
Problems can't be this simple! There must be something wrong with his actions! He is most likely still testing it!
Yue Mingkong broke out in cold sweat as he reached this conclusion. Gu Changge's methods and schemes were always unexpected and unexpected — one mistake from him would be enough to make him leave.
At the next moment, Yue Mingkong raised his head and looked at Gu Changge. His expression showed that he was touched by his proclamation, and his eyes were filled with excitement as he said, “Changge, are you telling the truth? Are you really not going to treat me with the same indifference as before? That's cool! I know I'll be able to impress you sooner or later.”
“When did I ever lie to you? It's only natural that I treat you well.”
Gu Changge's face showed his same and unchanging smile as he gently carried Yue Mingkong into his arms and stroked her hair.
He immediately felt his body stiffen, but he did not care about it. At the same time, her face showed a different expression when she realized that the matter was not much different from her expectations.
Immediately, Yue Mingkong closed his eyes and leaned against Gu Changge's chest. He never thought that what he wanted for so many years in his previous life would come so suddenly in this life.
Even though he knew that Gu Changge might be acting, he still wished for time to stop at this moment so that they could stay like this forever.
"Congratulations, don't you have something to say to me?"
Just then, Gu Changge's voice sounded again.
Yue Mingkong remained silent, and replied by shaking his head. Currently, he could not show any signs of abnormality.
Gu Changge also smiled and did not say anything. Now, he had almost found the nitty-gritty ins and outs of Yue Mingkong. Although he tried his best to hide it, and pretended to be the same as before, he could not hide his temperament and majesty.
Moreover, there were still some flaws in his appearance. For example, when she asked why she was different from before, she seemed to show a surprised and panicked expression for a moment. Although he calmed himself down and immediately returned to normal, he could not prevent Gu Changge from catching the change. After all, he was not weak, and could observe even the smallest change in a person.
He was still a little wet behind the ears if he thought he could trick him by acting.
But there was one thing that Gu Changge — could not understand what caused his fiancee to become an enemy with him in the future, considering he was retreating to the past? Why aren't they on the same side?
Did he leave her in the future? Or did he betray her? He wants to know what happened.
Although Gu Changge was a little confused, he did not panic.
Still, she did not know what Yue Mingkong was going through, and she was sure she would not tell him even if she asked. After all, it involved his greatest secret.
Moreover, since he was retreating from the future, he should have a good understanding of his methods and nature, so he would be vigilant around him, and would not easily believe it.
It was possible that he even knew that he was the heir of the Demon Art.
Right now, he did not know how to deal with Yue Mingkong. Even though he knew he was a regressor, he could not tell what he was holding in his arsenal.
Specially? His departure from the future was too fraudulent! Especially in a place like the Upper Realm, where he had knowledge of everything that might happen in the future, there was nothing that could be hidden from him.
Defeating her brothers in the Supreme Immortal Dynasty and obtaining the position of Crown Princess was definitely no big deal for a regressor like her!
"Changge, how long are you going to hold me?"
Yue Mingkong had calmed down by now, and said in a timid tone that seemed to contain no lies. But in his heart, he was angry. He felt as if Gu Changge was just playing around with him to see his ugly expression!
Now, he was convinced that Gu Changge was just like him, and also retreated from the future. A hug like this, which was not meant from the bottom of his heart, was not worth melting down.
"Obviously, I want to hold you as long as I can."
Gu Changge replied with a smile. He felt relieved now that he knew his origin. He could see that Yue Mingkong had never expected him to do everything he did, and it was because of this that he was extremely shocked.
In other words, what he had experienced in his previous life was different from now.
Yue Mingkong did not expect such a response from Gu Changge. He wanted to break away from her embrace, but could only let her do what she wanted. Even though she was her enemy, it was still the fact that she was also her future husband. She put on a shy and joyful expression, and whispered to him, "Changge, why are you so good to me now?"
He wanted to see how long Gu Changge would pretend to be.
'What does he mean by saying I'm nice to him now?'
Is he nice to her now? Then how did he treat her in their previous life? Did he beat and curse her?
Gu Changge was somewhat dumbfounded as the thought revolved in his heart. But thinking that this question was Yue Mingkong's test for her, she could not help but say with a smile, "You are my future wife, so why am I not being nice to you?"
Yue Mingkong was surprised by his words! His eyes reddened, and a deep sadness gripped his heart.
Wife-to-be?
Did he really think of her as his future wife in their previous life? To him, he was nothing more than a tool that could be thrown away after being used once.
He savagely killed her on the night of their wedding!
“Mingkong, what's up? Looks like you're not okay.”
Gu Changge was surprised by the change in his expression, and he knew that he was not faking it now. He wondered why his eyes had become red so suddenly? Did his sentence bring out the sadness hidden deep in his heart?
For a moment, he didn't know what to say to her.
Sure enough, it's not easy to deal with it.
“Changge, I feel a bit uncomfortable. Forgive Mekong for not accompanying you anymore.”
As soon as he finished his words, Yue Mingkong broke free from Gu Changge's embrace, turned around, and left.
At the same time, he felt that Gu Changge must have known his greatest secret; no matter how hard he tried, he could not hide the truth from him.
Why else would he say such contemptuous words to her now?
Later on, he would definitely do everything in his power to deal with it!
Gu Changge did not say much as he watched Yue Mingkong leave. The smile on his face disappeared, and he stood alone in silence. At the same time, the System Prompt sounded in his mind.
[Dig! You have triggered the Yue Mingkong event. She was Heaven's Favorite Princess, the Empress that retreated from the future! Her love for you is as deep as the ocean, but her hatred for you is embedded deep in her bones after her past experiences.]
[You have the following System Tasks to choose from:]
[Task 1: Kill the Preferred Heavenly Princess.
You will receive 5000 Luck Value Points and 25000 Destiny Points.
Additional rewards will be calculated differently.]
[Task 2: Conquering a Preferred Heavenly Princess.
You will receive 5000 Luck Value Points and 25000 Destiny Points.
Additional rewards will be calculated differently.]
'What difference?'
Gu Changge couldn't help but ask.
[Dig! You can receive different types of assistance from the System depending on your choice. Additional rewards will also be different in both cases.]
'Receive second assignment.'
Gu Changge directly ordered without giving it too much thought. Choosing the first option is completely unrealistic.[2]
[Dig! Host, you have chosen Task 2! The system will help you by showing you the Yue Bingkong experience from her past life.]
The system suddenly said this, and then Gu Changge felt his vision blur. Immediately, a scene appeared before his eyes.
He found himself in a magnificent palace lit by the twinkling flames of red candles, and the dim light of the moon. A woman was quietly sitting on the bed wrapped in red. She wore a phoenix crown and a phoenix dress, and sat on the bed with a timid expression.
Is this their wedding night?
Gu Changge could not help feeling uneasy as he found himself walking in.
Immediately, he removed the red veil that covered his face.
"Home!"
The woman raised her head to look at him. His eyebrows surged in excitement, and one could see the gentleness in his eyes. But soon, his eyes showed shock and disbelief.
[Who!]
With a splash of blood, the scene was blurred.
