Chapter 51 part 1

Returning to heaven felt both familiar and unfamiliar. The fairy friends that saw me came to greet me kindly. It seemed no different from the time before I went down.

Without one celestial star Chu Kong, heaven is still heaven. The immortals are cold and dont have so many feelings as humans.

Perhaps before going down I was also like that. Now.

If I burry my head, I can smell the earth on my whole body.

Back to Yue Lao temple. The red strings in Yue Lao temple is still the same as always; a mess created by Yue Lao. Theyre so mixed together that you dont know where the one ends or begins.

I went to the backyard and saw Yue Lao sleeping with stolen wine. I deeply feel that all my bad habits are learned from this tricky Yue Lao.

I walked to him, grabbed his two white beards and mercilessly pulled them down.

Aiyo, Yue Lao screamed in pain. He grabbed his chin and woke up. It took a moment before he saw me.

Ah, Xiao Xiang Zi, youre back!

I looked at him with squinted eyes. He sensibly changed the way he called me: Alright, Xiao Xiang. The moment you come back, you tossed me, this old bone! By the way

Yue Lao looked left and right. Close to my ears, he asked: When you were down, you werent together with celestial star Chu Kong, right? Heaven made a bet. I bet you two wont be together. I put five golden teals!

Inside information.

I plucked his two long white beards out.

If you dont want to lose money, quickly go change your bet.

Yue Lao looked at me with his round eyes. I laughed: I bet all the wages from my whole life. I and Chu Kong can absolutely be together.

Yue Lao looked at me blankly for a while. He turned, took out an abacus and calculated: Even with all the wages from your whole life, they arent worth five golden teals, ah. Your information is also notorious for being untrustworthy.

I twitched my mouth: Whatever!

After saying that I went back to my own room while holding the mirror of the past. I locked the door and put the mirror of the past above the desk. I felt emotionally complex. In fact, Yue Lao was right. Like my life wages isnt worth five golden teals, I also dont know if my information is correct or not. Im just relying on my intuition or better said Im gambling with the confidence Ive in Chu Kong.

I definitely believe that Chu Kong wont want to go in the evil ways.

Even if he didnt have the memory of his past lives. Even if he really wanted to prove himself. Even if hes jealous and angry. But hell definitely not follow Jin Lians wish to want to go in the evil ways. After all hes always been a good person.

No matter if its arrogant celestial star Chu Kong, Lu Hai Kong or meatball Kong, Ive always believed that deep in his heart theres tenderness and kindness.

Moreover the thing about meatball Kong going into the evil ways is really strange. He said Jin Lian was in his body for three years. Since he was willing to let Jin Lian into his body, three years ago, why didnt he follow Jin Lian and chose to wait untill now?

I dare to guess that meatball Kong was careless and Jin Lian entered his body. He has been affected by Jin Lian, but he was afraid that Ill be worried. So he never told me about this matter.

He cares about me. Besides its an excessive care.

I looked in the mirror of the past. Waves formed in the mirror. I saw Chu Kong still holding the body that has been abandoned by me. His body was stiff. It looked like he also has become a corpse and will not move again.

Im not celestial star Chu Kong, he said quietly. His voice was hoarse. In my heart there isnt immortal life of the heaven and earth and there also isnt doing good things for the people. I just wanted to protect you. I just really wanted to protect you. What freedom. What living alone. They arent what I want. To become the person you like. To let my figure enter your eyes, even if its just for a moment, itll be alright. Knowing that you like me will be enough.

I really didnt want to make you angry. I was just afraidafraid that one day I cant control myself and hurt you. So I tried everything to leave you. I just thought

His voice choked. He buried his head in my neck like how I comforted him in the past.

I just thought that I cant let that person in my body harm you. I just wanted to use all my effort to protect you. I just thought that if you say some disappointing words to me, after I died, will you be less sad?

My heart felt pain. I listened to him continue saying: Im sorry. Im so stupidIm still as stupid as when I was a child. I couldnt think of a better idea!

He broke down in tears.

Get up and beat me. Get up and teach me a lesson. You can do as you like, justdont leave me.

You know, my greatest fear is this
