Chapter 434: I Am Your Dao Companion
Her warm hand gently enveloped Yun Zhonghe’s slightly chilly one.
This sudden touch made Yun Zhonghe’s heart jolt, as if a current of electricity quietly passed through him. He was stunned, frozen in place.
The soft, delicate fingers of this girl… and they were so darn soft!
This sensation was both strange and familiar to him, awakening vague and distant memories buried deep within him.
“Master, please call me Jiu’er. You once said that was your favorite way to address me.”
“Is that… really true?” Yun Zhonghe frowned, with a big question mark floating above his head.
Tao Jiu’er smiled brightly: “Sure thing~”
Her eyes sparkled mischievously yet warmly.
Yun Zhonghe: “……”
Something felt off, very off. Something fishy…
But Yun Zhonghe couldn’t remember anything wrong with what she said.
Despite her elegant manners and a gentle smile, Tao Jiu’er seemed to give Yun Zhonghe an inexplicable sense of pressure.
As if she was planning something…
“However, Master, are you really remembering nothing?”
Tao Jiu’er suddenly became serious, her bright eyes piercing into Yun Zhonghe, as if trying to read something from his expression, confirming her suspicions.
“I’m terribly sorry if I’ve said anything wrong. Please forgive me.”
Yun Zhonghe apologized instinctively, even more convinced that he might have a tinge of fear towards this Tao Jiu’er.
Strange, isn’t he supposed to be the master here?
“No, no need. You’re my Lord. Why should you apologize to me?”
Tao Jiu’er smirked, her consoling smile easing some of Yun Zhonghe’s tension.
But this moment of peace was shattered by the next words, causing Yun Zhonghe’s heart to tighten once again.
“So, Master has forgotten about our relationship too.”
Tao Jiu’er said this with a subtle tone, almost unconsciously humming a cheerful hum, as if waiting for Yun Zhonghe’s reaction or testing something out.
Yun Zhonghe: “? ? ?”
His face reflected confusion and bewilderment.
Wait, doesn’t she seem more amused than sad?
Could there be something they’re keeping secret?
Yun Zhonghe desperately searched his memories for anything about Tao Jiu’er but found nothing but blankness.
“We are master and servant, right…?” Yun Zhonghe tentatively suggested, hoping to find a clue from her reaction.
Tao Jiu’er supported her face and gazed at him with a distant, dreamy look, her voice soft enough to melt butter: “Me and Master—actually, we’re companions in the Dao~”
She even playfully formed a heart shape with her fingers!
Scrutinizing Tao Jiu’er’s composed expression, Yun Zhonghe somehow detected a hint of teasing laughter in her eyes.
Uncontrollably, Yun Zhonghe gasped: “Huh? ? ?”
He and this alluring girl are companions in the Dao?
Real or fake?!
Yun Zhonghe’s eyes widened in disbelief, filled with suspicion.
Yet, Tao Jiu’er exuded an extraordinarily excited aura, though her elegant smile remained steady. Her sparkling eyes betrayed her inner excitement, hotter than the midday sun in summer.
Like repressed emotions had finally found an outlet, the feeling of finally being able to do whatever she wanted made her want to laugh out of joy.
“After regaining memories, memories from the amnesia period will vanish too…”
Tao Jiu’er grinned devilishly, seemingly a different person.
Honestly, this unexpected development was just perfect for Tao Jiu’er, even her dream come true.
She was always so restrained, but now, even if she did something outrageous, it wouldn’t affect the normal plot.
This was her own time to play freely!
“Cackle… hahaha~~~”
Tao Jiu’er’s smile couldn’t be contained any longer. The giggles spilled naturally from her lips.
Though she felt a bit guilty towards Mu Girl and Lin Girl, as a lady, she also deserved her chance.
Clouded in astonishment by Tao Jiu’er’s earlier statement, Yun Zhonghe still couldn’t get over it.
It was unbelievably surreal.
Though he didn’t know why, he just felt it was so absurd.
Seeing Yun Zhonghe’s stunned appearance, Tao Jiu’er smiled faintly, then moved closer to him. Her long, graceful fingers gently stroked his face, tenderly and meticulously, full of affection.
“Master, we’ve been together for many years, but due to our positions, we’ve always kept it under wraps.”
She gazed deeply into Yun Zhonghe’s eyes, her gaze filled with sincerity and hope, leaving Yun Zhonghe disoriented.
Subconsciously, Yun Zhonghe sensed there was more to the story, but he had no excuse to argue. Besides, this girl had just confessed so directly, surely not lying to him.
How could such a beautiful, gentle woman deceive him?
He was utterly confused.
“Is this… really the case?”
Tao Jiu’er grinned even wider, her eyes curved into crescents, showing off her pearly teeth, emanating charm and grace.
She nodded gently, assertively: “Of course, we grew up together. You’re the best to me, and I’m the one who loves you the most. We promised never to separate~”
Her words made Yun Zhonghe’s heart flutter violently.
With such a beautiful woman—
Yun Zhonghe couldn’t help but focus on her chest, her high br*asts and well-rounded curves barely concealed beneath her clothes, making his heart race.
She was perfection, hands-down. And she’s saying she loves him?!
“Pfffft… seems like you really don’t remember,” Tao Jiu’er said with a tinge of heartache and sadness.
“When we have so many beautiful memories, recalling them—”
Her face flushed as she spoke, a blush creeping onto her cheeks, endearing her further.
Reality and illusion intertwined, like shadows in the fog, muddling what was real and what wasn’t.
I can’t tell the difference anymore!!!
This is insane!!!
