On the way back, Piao kept saying this. Mu Anxiao didn't pay much attention to it at first, but for some reason, she was suddenly paying attention now.
"What do you mean by that?" she asked.
Piao smiled at Mu Anxiao, then turned to the Rabbit Queen. "Get out."
"Yes," the Rabbit Queen replied, not daring to look at Mu Anxiao, and turned to leave directly.
Mu Anxiao continued to stare at Piao's face, waiting for his reply.
After a few minutes
Piao sat opposite Mu Anxiao and said, "So many years have passed, how have you really been?"
"What did you mean by that just now?" Mu Anxiao asked, hiding her fear.
Piao smiled without warmth. "Answer me what I ask you."
Hearing Piao's tone, Mu Anxiao was still scared.
"I've been doing quite well," she said, her voice trembling.
"He never forgave you, not until his death, did he?" Piao asked.
Mu Anxiao shifted her gaze, then thought to herself: could this guy be talking about Shen Yan?
"Answer me when I ask you, don't think about random things," Piao said sternly.
Mu Anxiao took a deep breath, looked up, and asked, "Do you know Shen Yan?"
"That was Shen Yan's descendant just now. If I'm not mistaken, he used his own body from a past life," Piao said, having no intention of answering Mu Anxiao's question.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Mu Anxiao asked again.
"I don't want to do anything. I just want to lure that guy here and kill him right in front of you," Piao said, directly grabbing Mu Anxiao's hand.
"You dare," Mu Anxiao uttered the two words forcefully and shook off Piao's hand.
"That's how excited you were that year," Piao smiled.
What year was that? Mu Anxiao didn't know, and she had no memory of Piao in front of her.
"Why are you quiet again?" Piao said.
Mu Anxiao pursed her lips. "I actually really hate this feeling." As she spoke, she looked at Piao.
Piao frowned. "What feeling?"
"I really hate this mysterious feeling of yours," Mu Anxiao said, standing up from her chair. "If you want to kill Feng Qishi, then kill me first. At that time, you can kill him, and I won't have to see it, so I won't be annoyed."
"I won't kill you," Piao said, looking up.
Mu Anxiao looked down at Piao, speechless.
"Do you want to die that badly?" Piao asked, looking at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao sneered. "No one wants to die. Everyone wants to live well."
"Then why did you say that?" Piao asked.
Mu Anxiao sighed and turned her back. "Being with someone like you is really too tiring."
"You said the same thing before," Piao smiled.
Mu Anxiao frowned, clenching her fists. "Before, before, before, you've been talking about the past all the way. Don't you get tired of saying so much?" As she spoke, she turned to Piao.
Piao's lips curved. "Before, I sealed your memories of me. At that time, I was thinking about how we would meet again, but..." He gave a wry smile. "I didn't expect that with one careless mistake, I forgot your appearance and name. I only remember that there was a girl who appeared in my life. That person was you, Mu Anxiao."
"That's not right," Mu Anxiao said, gasping. "You sealed my memories, and your memories are still there, but you forgot my face and my name. Brother, you're also suffering from amnesia."
"Is it amnesia?" Piao asked back.
Mu Anxiao nodded. "Of course it is. You said you remembered my personality, didn't you?" She pointed at Piao.
Piao nodded slightly.
"There are many people with personalities similar to mine. I guarantee that you..." She stopped midway, then thought about her own safety. But thinking of Feng Qishi's hard-won life, she decided to sacrifice herself. "You've definitely found the wrong person." Her voice was very weak.
Piao stood up and said, "I remember someone named Shen Yan, and I even remember his face."
Hearing Piao's words, Mu Anxiao immediately recalled his expression when he saw Feng Qishi just now, then she thought for a moment and said excitedly, "I know."
"Know what?" Piao asked.
Mu Anxiao clenched her hands and said, "The person you liked before was Shen Yan, so you can't kill his descendant because you had an inseparable emotional bond before."
"Are you saying I'm gay?" Piao asked calmly.
Mu Anxiao gave a dry laugh. "I didn't say that, you said it yourself." She pointed at Piao.
Piao looked at Mu Anxiao, blinked, and said, "I wasn't like this before."
"What do you mean?" Mu Anxiao's smile faded as she asked.
Piao said, "It means that before I met you, I wasn't a demon. After I met you, I became like this."
"Are you blaming me?" Mu Anxiao pointed at herself in disbelief.
"I just want to make it clear that I haven't misidentified you. It is you," Piao said, pointing at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao was speechless.
Piao glanced at Mu Anxiao, stepped around her to the door, and said, "He's here. Go to the main gate."
"Yes," the second maid, Rabbit, replied quickly and turned to leave.
Mu Anxiao followed Piao's instructions, then quickly turned around and asked, "Who's here?"
Following that, Piao was silent for a few seconds and said, "Who else could it be but Shen Yan's descendant?" He turned to Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao's eyes widened, she rushed forward, and grabbed Piao's collar. "If you dare to touch him, I'm not done with you."
"You really don't want him to die?" Piao asked.
Mu Anxiao's eyes were firm. "I saved him with great effort. If you dare to kill him, I'll fight you."
"You're just useless," Piao said, pulling away Mu Anxiao's hands that were tightly gripping his collar.
Mu Anxiao took a breath and said, "You, if you dare to do that, I will expose all your weaknesses to the world before I die. At that time, those who want you dead will definitely find ways to kill you."
"You are truly naive," Piao smiled.
"Naive," Mu Anxiao repeated, narrowing her eyes. "You are the naive one. If you dare to push me, I will do anything."
"Mu Anxiao, can I say you're getting carried away?" Piao's expression turned cold.
Mu Anxiao took a deep breath. "I'm getting carried away because you're forcing me."
Hearing Mu Anxiao's tone, Piao laughed. "I will force you. Let's see what else you can say to provoke me."
Originally, Mu Anxiao thought she had angered Piao, but she didn't expect him to laugh. She was helpless about this.
"Do you just like to find someone to torment you?" she said, deflated.
"Before I recognized you, if you said this, I would be very angry. But now," Piao reached out and patted Mu Anxiao's shoulder. "I'm not angry at all. I just find you laughable."
