“Why?” Zhang Wuji requested.

“She is the assassin who killed me,” Yin Li replied, “Why do you continue to care about her?”

“However you aren’t useless,” Zhao Min interrupted, “How can she be your assassin?”

“I’ve died as soon as,” Yin Li stated, “That makes her the assassin!”

“Good Zhu’er,” Zhang Wuji tried to steer her, “You may have escaped hazard and returned to stay. We’re all very completely happy. Why do not you sit properly over right here and inform us how did you cheat demise and escaped alive?”

Yin Li stated, “What do you imply ‘we’? Let me ask you this: once you stated ‘we’, who’s ‘we’?”

Zhang Wuji stated with fun, “There are solely 4 individuals in right here. Naturally ‘we’ refers to Miss Zhou, Miss Zhao and me.”

“Humph!” with a chilly snicker Yin Li stated, “I’m not useless. Granted that you simply could be considerably completely happy, however what about Miss Zhou and Miss Zhao? Are additionally they completely happy?”

“Miss Yin,” Zhou Zhiruo stated, “I used to be so evil in these days; I’ve harmed you. However later, not solely I deeply regretted my actions but in addition I’ve by no means had peace in my sleep. In any other case, once I all of a sudden noticed you within the woods, I might not be frightened like this. Now that I see you alive and effectively, my burden has been lifted off. The Heaven above is my witness that my pleasure is unbounded.”

Yin Li leaned her head sideways and thought for a second. She nodded and stated, “That is sensible. Truly, I used to be going to settle the rating with you, however since you’ve gotten apologized, I will let it go.”

Zhou Zhiruo kneeled down and sobbed, “I … I actually have dedicated the gravest offense towards you.”

Yin Li had at all times been hot-tempered; however seeing Zhou Zhiruo sincerely admit her guilt, her coronary heart melted. She rapidly helped her up and stated, “Zhou Jiejie, let bygone be bygone, allow us to overlook it. In any case, I’m not useless.” Holding Zhou Zhiruo’s hand, she took her to take a seat on her facet.

Brushing her stray hair apart, Yin Li stated, “You crisscrossed my face with the swords, it was additionally not totally with none profit. My face was initially bumpy, after the sword reduce, the toxic blood was drained away, the bumps slowly subsided.”

Zhou Zhiruo was overwhelmed with remorse; she didn’t know what to say.

Zhang Wuji stated, “Afterwards, Yifu, Zhiruo and I lived on that island for a very long time. Zhu’er, after you got here out of the grave, why did not you see us?”

“I used to be not prepared to see you,” Yin Li angrily stated, “You and Miss Zhou saved whispering candy nothings to 1 one other; how can I not be indignant listening to these crap? Humph! ‘Hereafter my like to you may be doubled or tripled! We’re husband and spouse, two individuals one physique; how can I mistreat you?'” Within the final a number of sentences, she was mimicking Zhang Wuji’s method of speech. After which, she continued with Zhou Zhiruo’s voice, “‘What if I mistaken you or offend you, will you hit me, scold me, kill me? Since I used to be little, I had by no means had a father and a mom to instruct me. It might be troublesome to not mess up generally’.” She coughed as soon as and altered her voice to a throaty male voice, “‘Zhiruo, you’re my beloved spouse. Even in the event you make any mistake, I will not blame you or scold you.'” Pointing her finger towards the moon on the western horizon, she stated, “‘The moon within the sky is our witness.'”

Turned out when Zhang Wuji and Zhou Zhiruo had been pouring their hearts to one another that night time, Yin Li had heard the whole lot. As she now repeated their phrases one after the other, Zhou Zhiruo’s complete face reddened, whereas Zhang Wuji seemed bashful and stressed. He stole a look towards Zhao Min and noticed that her face was deathly pale; thus he reached out to carry her hand. To his shock, Zhao Min turned her palm round and pricked his arm together with her two lengthy fingernails. Zhang Wuji winced from the ache, however didn’t dare to make any noise; he didn’t even dare to maneuver.

Yin Li reached into her bosom and took out a picket strip. She shoved it in entrance of Zhang Wuji’s face. “Look clearly. What is that this?” she requested.

Zhang Wuji seemed nearer and noticed a line of characters engraved on the picket strip; it learn ‘The Tomb of my Beloved Spouse, Zhu’Er Yin Li. Zhang Wuji Sincerely Acknowledged’. It was precisely the grave marker he erected in entrance of Yin Li’s grave.

Yin Li bitterly stated, “As I crawled out of the grave, I noticed this picket strip, and I used to be confused. What is that this? The place is that heartless and short-lived little rascal Zhang Wuji? I considered it 100 occasions with out determining what occurred, till in a while I eavesdropped the 2 of you calling ‘Wuji Gege this’ and ‘Wuji Gege’ that. It all of a sudden dawned on me that Zhang Wuji is Zeng Aniu, and Zheng Aniu is Zhang Wuji. You, the heartless scoundrel, you’ve gotten deceived me actually dangerous!” She raised the picket strip and smashed it with all her would possibly onto Zhang Wuji’s head. ‘Bang!’ the picket strip broke, picket shards flew out in all instructions.

Zhao Min was indignant. “Why do you retain hitting individuals?” she stated.

Yin Li laughed aloud and stated, “I like to hit him, what does it should do with you? Your coronary heart hurts, would not it?”

Zhao Min blushed and stated, “He’s yielding to you. You have no idea good from dangerous.”

Yin Li laughed. “Why did you say I have no idea good from dangerous?” she requested, “Do not you are worried, I can’t combat with you over this freak. I’ve given my coronary heart to just one individual, one who bit the again of my hand within the Butterfly Valley, Zhang Wuji. About this freak, I do not care if he’s referred to as Zeng Aniu or Zhang Wuji, I do not like him in the least.”

Turning towards Zhang Wuji, she stated in a mild voice, “Aniu Gege, you’ve gotten at all times handled me very effectively, I’m very grateful to you. However since a very long time in the past, I’ve given my coronary heart to that heartless, ferocious little Zhang Wuji. You aren’t him, no, you aren’t him …”

Zhang Wuji was confounded. “I’m positively Zhang Wuji,” he stated, “Why … what …”

Yin Li checked out him with a young expression for an extended, very long time. Her eyes modified irregularly. Lastly, she shook her head and stated, “Aniu Gege, you do not perceive. Within the western area desert, you and I’ve gone by stay and demise scenario collectively. On that small island, you had been extraordinarily good to me. You’re a good man. However I’ve already advised you, I’ve given my coronary heart to that Zhang Wuji for a very long time. I’m going to search out him. Inform me, do you assume if I discover him, he would nonetheless beat me, scold me or chew me?”

With out ready for Zhang Wuji to reply, she circled and slowly walked away.

Out of the blue Zhang Wuji understood. Turned out the one she really beloved was the Zhang Wuji who lived in her reminiscence, the Zhang Wuji she met within the Butterfly Valley, the one who beat her and chew her, the obstinate Zhang Wuji who refused to observe her; not the actual Zhang Wuji, the grown up Zhang Wuji who was extraordinarily tolerant and at all times handled individuals with kindness. One third a part of his coronary heart was wounded, one third of it was reluctant to let her go, but the opposite third half was relieved. He adopted her along with his gaze till her shadow disappeared into the darkness. He knew that for the remainder of her life, Yin Li would at all times bear in mind the very sturdy teenage boy of the Butterfly Valley, and that she would at all times wish to discover him. He realized that she would by no means discover the one she was on the lookout for, however then once more, he may say that she had already discovered him, as a result of that boy had at all times lived in her coronary heart. Is not it true that oftentimes, the actual individual, the precise matter, is inferior to the one inside one’s reminiscence?
