Chapter 445: 445. The Secret of Xingluo Island

Translator: 549690339

Elder Bai appeared before everyone again, sweeping away his previous depression and losing himself, and regaining his once aloof and deep look, which made Qiao Jing quite unaccustomed to it.

When Elder Bai woke up today, he had already been informed by Old Mu of the current situation, and what he cared about most was Su Liang, of course. Upon learning that Su Liang had given birth to a daughter safely, Elder Bai was even more eager to return to the capital city to see Su Liang and Gu Xiaonuan.

At that time, Elder Bai accompanied Ying Ying to Yin Country to save Ying Ye, and Su Liang was still pregnant. Now the world has lost Yin Country, Elder Bai has gone through hardships and woke up again, feeling as if he had gone through a lifetime.

“Does Elder Bai need another day to rest?” Lian Shun asked.

Elder Bai immediately shook his head, “No need. My body is not so weak, I want to return to the capital city today. Are you coming with me or not? If not, I will go alone.”

Lian Shun nodded, “Then let’s go together today.” He, Ying Ying and Ying Ye. Ying Ying also wanted to take Ying Ye to the capital city as soon as possible to see if Su Liang had a way to cure Ying Ye. He had been underwater and injured his brain, and his mind was still like a child even though he had grown up.

Qiao Jing looked at Old Mu, who sighed, “I really want to go back and hug Xiaonuan, but it’s impossible now! There is still something to do here, so I won’t go back this time. Let Elder Bai, Xiaolian, and Xiaoyuan go back first.”

As soon as Qiao Cong, who had been eager to return, saw Qiao Jing looking at him, he said irritably, “Isn’t it all for you? Otherwise, what am I doing here? Really!”

Qiao Jing: …Yes, it is all his fault. Who let him not have the strong skills and wisdom of Gu Ling so that the elder always worried about him.

However, Qiao Cong speaks one way, but his actions are reliable. He always missed Qiao Jing, but if Gu Ling and Su Liang needed Qiao Jing to do anything, Qiao Cong did not stop him and never mentioned him going back to the capital city. Instead, he came here to protect his grandson.

Now it’s settled that Lian Shun, Ying Ying, Ying Ye, and Elder Bai will leave for the capital city in the afternoon.

“We will pack our bags now.” Lian Shun said and was about to hold Ying Ying’s hand but was immediately thrown off.

Ying Ying told Ying Ye that they were going back to their real home and meet the Sister Liang she had talked about before. Ying Ye was very happy, “I remember, Sister Su Liang, my lifesaver! And beautiful brother, sister said he will be my brother-in-law!”

Because his intelligence was flawed, he was not drugged but did not know any important matters.

Upon hearing Ying Ye’s words, Lian Shun felt a stab in his heart and put his face in front of Ying Ye, “Xiaoye, look who am I?”

“Brother-in-law!” Ying Ye said with a smile.

“You only have one brother-in-law, who is he?” Lian Shun asked again.

“It’s Brother Ersan!” Ying Ye hugged Lian Shun’s arm.

Lian Shun smiled and glanced at Ying Ying, then asked Ying Ye another question, “Who is Gu Ling?”

“He’s the beautiful brother my sister likes!” Ying Ye answered immediately.

Lian Shun: …Of course, he knew that Gu Ling had known Ying Ying for a long time before he met Su Liang, and Ying Ying had indeed liked Gu Ling, just as Lian Shun had liked Su Liang… It had to be said that this was their special fate as husband and wife!

Of course, Lian Shun would not be angry. He knew that Ying Ye had not changed his view of Gu Ling just because he saw Ying Ying married to Lian Shun.

Ying Ying rubbed Ying Ye’s head, “Your Sister Su Liang is married to Brother Gu Ling.”

“Oh,” Ying Ye nodded obediently, “That’s great!”

Ying Ying packed Ying Ye’s luggage first, then returned to her own room, turning back to see Lian Shun had also come in.

“This is also my room.” Lian Shun said seriously, “I swear, the thing about getting married last night was really your idea, not me taking advantage of someone in need.”

Ying Ying frowned, “I know, they all said so. I believe they wouldn’t lie to me.”

“Would I lie to you?” Lian Shun was a little hurt.

Ying Ying shook her head, “You probably wouldn’t, but I think… ”

Lian Shun blinked, and Ying Ying rubbed her forehead, “I feel weird and not used to it.”

Lian Shun smiled, “That’s understandable. Let’s take our time, and I’ll pursue you again. Let’s make a bet that I’ll make you call me ‘Husband’ before we get to the capital city. Dare you?”

Ying Ying snorted lightly, “Why not? But let me tell you, don’t touch me, or I can’t guarantee I won’t cripple you. Sister Xiaoliang’s face won’t help you either.”

Lian Shun was imagining a three-step plan of holding hands, hugging, and kissing, but was stunned by Ying Ying’s words. However, he thought about it and figured it would be better to take a step by step approach since they were already close and he would make Ying Ying remember.

Lian Shun went out and let Ying Ying change clothes and pack her things first.

Ying Ying looked at the unfinished red candle on the table and paused, closing her eyes, but her memory of Lian Shun was still before her trip to Yin Country. She really couldn’t remember anything about getting married, even if it had happened last night.

However, as a woman, Ying Ying could feel the changes in her body, knowing that her wedding night with Lian Shun was real, and the forgotten memories were also her own heartfelt actions, with no one deceiving her or forcing her. She didn’t reject Lian Shun, but as she said, it felt strange, and she needed some time to get used to it.

Opening the wardrobe, she saw their clothes put together and let out a small sigh, organizing her own clothes.

Actually, they had just decided to get married yesterday, and it was too rushed. The two of them didn’t originally have their clothes together. But Lian Shun had deliberately moved his clothes when Ying Ying was unconscious due to the antidote. It was normal; they just didn’t have time for it last night.

Ying Ying tidied up and called Lian Shun to come in, not leaving the room herself.

Now it was Lian Shun’s turn to feel uncomfortable. As he was organizing his clothes, he knew that Ying Ying was watching him, examining him, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous: would she suddenly find him unpleasing to the eye?

After a while, Lian Shun coughed lightly, “Well, I need to change my clothes. Do you want to turn away?”

Ying Ying shook her head, “If you don’t mind, I won’t turn away.”

Lian Shun was stunned for a moment, what was going on? Was Ying Ying trying to see if he had a good figure? The development of things had indeed become very strange…

However, as a man, Lian Shun couldn’t back down from this kind of thing. If Ying Ying wanted to look, he was of course happy to let her. He was quite confident in his own figure.

But undressing in front of Ying Ying was still very embarrassing, so he turned his back to her to change clothes.

While changing, he heard Ying Ying comment, “Not bad.”

Lian Shun’s hand paused, almost tearing the strap of the clothes he was putting on. Finishing dressing, he turned to Ying Ying and asked in a serious tone, “What do you mean, not bad? Is it good or not good?”

Ying Ying suddenly laughed, “I haven’t seen anyone else, so there’s no comparison.”

Lian Shun’s face darkened a bit, “Who else do you want to see? I’m your husband!”

“I know, you’ve told me many times. I just wanted to see what kind of feeling I would have.” Ying Ying said.

Lian Shun immediately asked, “So, how do you feel?”

“I told you, not bad. Not hateful.” Ying Ying said and looked up and down Lian Shun once more.

Lian Shun inexplicably felt as if Ying Ying was undressing him again, unable to control his thoughts of the wedding night…

“Hurry up, in a while elder Bai will come and scold us. He’s in a hurry to leave, and I’m eager to see Sister Liang too.” Ying Ying urged.

“I’ll be done soon!” Lian Shun’s eyes filled with a smile. Since they were honest with each other, and Ying Ying didn’t know what shyness was, he would take the initiative to strike, and take her down again as soon as possible! Otherwise, once they reached the capital city, even though they were married, they might have to sleep in separate rooms, and Gu Xiaoling would probably laugh at him for a lifetime!

When Qiao Cong entered the room, Qiao Jing unconsciously covered what he was writing.

Seeing this, Qiao Cong’s eyes lit up, “A letter to Sister Rou? You keep writing, I’ll read it when you’re done!”

Qiao Jing shook his head, “Grandfather can’t read it.”

“So it really is a letter to Sister Rou? Haha! I knew it, you’re still thinking about her even though you’re playing tough! I won’t read it, hurry up, Elder Bai is in a hurry to leave!” Qiao Cong urged.

Qiao Jing wrote another line, then sealed the letter up, not willing to give it to Qiao Cong, fearing he would peek, and insisting on giving it directly to Ying Ying.

That afternoon, the group of four prepared to ride on horseback.

Before leaving, Elder Bai suddenly said to Elder Mu, “Thank you.”

Elder Mu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, “Why are you being polite with me? Hurry back, Nuannuan is calling me ‘master,’ she hasn’t called me yet, you took the lead! When I get back to the capital city, I’ll have a good fight with you!”

Elder Bai nodded, “Alright.” Although he had forgotten, he knew what his condition would be like after losing his memory, even worse than he had imagined. And over the years, it wasn’t the first time Elder Mu had saved him. The last time, Elder Mu had carried him all the way to Su Liang’s home when he was drowning his sorrows in alcohol, which had given him a new lease on life.

Qiao Jing gave the letter to Ying Ying, asking her to help deliver it to Su Liang. There was nothing written on the envelope, but inside was another envelope that Su Liang would recognize.

“Qiao Xiaojing, you’re not right, why don’t you give it to me and insist on giving it to my wife? Is there a secret?” Lian Shun noticed immediately.

Qiao Jing shook his head, “You’re too impulsive; it’s safer to give it to Ying Ying.”

Lian Shun was instantly discontent, “Qiao Xiaojing, are you my brother? You’re actually talking bad about me in front of my wife! I’m cutting ties with you!”

Qiao Jing nodded, “Alright. In the future, if there’s an issue, I’ll find Ying Ying, not you.”

Ying Ying saw Lian Shun deflated and felt happy, so she smiled slightly. “Just come to me. I think he’s pretty impulsive too. He knew I would lose my memory but didn’t even let me write a document. So stupid!”

Lian Shun got “angry” at her words, “Qiao Jing, witness it, didn’t I say that it was Ying Ying who refused?”

Qiao Jing’s expression was indifferent, “When did you say that? I’m not sure. Ask Xiaoye if he knows.”

Ying Ye heard his name and ran over immediately, “Brother Jing, are you looking for me?”

Qiao Jing asked Ying Ye if he knew about Lian Shun’s suggestion for Ying Ying to write down what happened during her memory loss. Ying Ye shook his head, “No! My brother-in-law never said that!”

Although he called him brother-in-law, what Ying Ye didn’t hear was omitted. Kids don’t lie.

“Let’s go.” Ying Ying raised her hand and knocked on Lian Shun’s forehead, “If we don’t leave now, senior Bai will come and beat us up.”

Lian Shun was delighted by the knock, and chased Ying Ying on horseback, “Ying Xiaoying, you were the first to touch me! I need to touch you back, otherwise it’s not fair!”

“You want to knock on my head too? Beat me first!” Ying Ying said with a laugh.

Qiao Jing always thought that even if Ying Ying forgot about the marriage, there would be no problem between her and Lian Shun. Now he was even more certain.

As he watched them leave, Qiao Jing turned his head to see Qiao Cong and Elder Mu hooking their shoulders, preparing to go to the beach to collect shells….

“I saw a really beautiful one last time, but I was too busy to pick it up!”

“We’ll go and find more to make a beautiful necklace for our precious Nuannuan!”

As Qiao Cong passed by Qiao Jing, he said, “You should stay at home and reflect on why you’re still single.”

Qiao Jing: …Why didn’t his grandfather and Elder Mu invite him to pick shells? He wanted to go too…

Lian Shun’s imagined journey of accompanying Ying Ying side by side on horseback, and talking about love under the stars and moon at night did not come true. Because the decision maker was Elder Bai, who only wanted to get home as soon as possible, avoiding doing anything that would delay them, including eating and sleeping. Their journey was minimalist, just staying alive was enough.

Of course, Lian Shun didn’t dare to have any objections. Elder Bai would really beat him up. Most importantly, they both needed to meet Su Liang as soon as possible.

Besides Ying Ye calling Lian Shun “brother-in-law” to comfort him, Lian Shun still felt a little lonely and cold whenever he looked at Ying Ying beside him. The torment of not being able to touch his wife was unbearable. He didn’t even think about anything else, just holding her hand would be enough, or letting her lean on him when feeling tired during their journey. But there was nothing.

When Ying Ying started loving to knock Lian Shun’s forehead again and became increasingly proficient, they had arrived at the capital city. Under Elder Bai’s lead, they went straight to Su Mansion.

When they were close to the entrance of Su Mansion, Lian Shun negotiated with Ying Ying, “After meeting Su Liang and discussing the main issue, can we go to my house? I have to tell my parents that we got married and didn’t bring you back. They must break off our relationship.”

“Sounds good.” Ying Ying agreed readily.

Lian Shun paused for a moment, and then his face lifted up with happiness, “Then you have to give me some face when the time comes.”

“Didn’t you say you’d bet that before arriving in the capital city, I would call you ‘my husband’? You lost.” Ying Ying said.

Lian Shun: …There were too many depressing things, and he had even forgotten about the bet.

“Ying Xiaoying, you must give me face, or else Gu Xiaoling would laugh at me for the rest of my life. This is my lifelong event.” As Lian Shun dragged Ying Ying into the Su Mansion by the corner of her clothes.

Ying Ying looked back, saw Lian Shun’s tired, thin, and pitiful face. She reached out, pinched it, and laughed gently, “We’ll see how I feel then.”

At dusk, everyone in Su Mansion was having dinner.

Zhengzheng was feeding Gu Xiaonuan soup, Ji Xiaoshu was fighting with Gu Ling for a chicken leg, Weng Ran and Nangong Qian were discussing going to find Lian Shan to play tomorrow, while Cen Man and Su Liang were focusing on eating. Because the sour radish and duck soup made by Gu Ling today was really delicious.

“Xiaoliang!”

Suddenly hearing Elder Bai’s voice, Su Liang, who was gnawing on a duck leg, looked up with joy, “Master is back!”

When Elder Bai appeared at the door, Su Liang heard Lian Shun’s voice as well, “Gu Xiaoling!”

“Uncle Ersan!” Zhengzheng’s eyes lit up.

Ji Xiaoshu scratched his head, “I don’t know him.”

Lao Bai rushed to Gu Xiaonuan in three steps and looked at her excitedly, his eyes reddening. In an instant, his voice became gentle, “Nuannuan, I’m your master!”

Gu Xiaonuan had many masters and was familiar with this title, so she happily called out, “Master!”

Lao Bai held Gu Xiaonuan in his arms, and the memories he had regained and the longing of these days made him shed tears, “Such a good girl…”

Su Liang had expected this and was not surprised. She got up and went over, hugging Ying Ying, “Sister Ying, it’s so good to see you safe.”

Indeed, as Lian Shun said, Su Liang had many female friends, most of them older than her, but Ying Ying was her one and only sister.

Ying Ying’s smile was as dazzling as ever, “You said you’d wait for me at home, so of course, I came back.”

Su Liang let go of Ying Ying and went straight to Gu Xiaonuan, “So cute! How can she be so much like Gu Ling?”

Su Liang looked at Ying Ye, whose eyes sparkled brightly. In one big stride, he hugged Su Liang and said happily, “Sister Su Liang! I’ve missed you so much!”

Su Liang couldn’t help but laugh. They were meeting for the first time, perhaps because Ying Ying talked too much about her.

Gu Ling came over, separated Ying Ye and Su Liang, then hugged Ying Ye himself, patting his back, “Do you still remember me?”

“I remember! It’s the handsome brother!” Ying Ye hugged Gu Ling even more happily. They had met before.

Only Lian Shun was standing at the door, ignored by everyone…

Zhengzheng ran over and grabbed Lian Shun’s hand, “Uncle Ersan, why aren’t you coming in? I miss you so much.”

Lian Shun was instantly healed, “Zhengzheng is the only one who treats me well.”

Ying Ying couldn’t take Gu Xiaonuan away from Lao Bai, so they all sat down after getting another bowl and chopsticks. Lian Shun cleared his throat, “I have big news to announce, Ying Ying, and I have already married in Jiaye City.”

As soon as he finished, Lian Shun looked at Gu Ling’s reaction. However, Gu Ling had no reaction. He just ladled soup for Ying Ye.

“Really? Congratulations! Congratulations!” Su Liang was very happy.

“Gu Xiaoling, we’re brothers, and you don’t even congratulate me?” Lian Shun teased Gu Ling.

Gu Ling looked at Ying Ying, “Do you remember getting married?”

Ying Ying shook her head, “I don’t remember. He told me all about it.”

Lian Shun felt a bit awkward for a moment, but then Ying Ying said something shocking, “But he’s mine now. I’ll take responsibility for him.”

Weng Ran and Nangong Qian were both stunned.

Zhengzheng gave a thumbs up, “Aunt Ying is so awesome!”

Ji Xiaoshu snickered, “Congratulations, Uncle Ersan!”

“Awesome! Ersan!” Gu Xiaonuan learned two new words.

Lian Shun: … Nuannuan, sweetheart you really know how to summarize!

But in fact, Lian Shun was overjoyed in his heart. Wasn’t that a good show of face? Look how domineering his wife was!

Gu Ling raised a glass to Lian Shun, “Congratulations on getting married.”

Lian Shun hummed, barely hiding his pride, “Not as amazing as your wedding.”

Zhengzheng’s little face was confused, “Can men also marry people?”

Ji Xiaoshu nodded, “Of course. With aunt Ying and master’s wife being so handsome, I always thought that master got married by using his charm!”

After enjoying a happy meal, the kids and Ying Ye went upstairs to play, and it was time for serious matters.

“I went to the forbidden area of Xingluo Island and almost died there.” Ying Ying’s gaze was solemn, “There was a cave with a deep pool inside it. Mo Yan made people jump into it and dive down without coming up until the time was up. That time, I saw a man drown with my own eyes, and his body floated up. Yue Mei forced Ying Ye and me to practice swimming since we were children, which was related to this. That’s why Ying Ye had a brain injury and how I survived from the forbidden area of Xingluo Island. But I was going to be arranged to go there a second time, but Mo Yan was out, so I didn’t go. When he came back, you saved me before he could arrange it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be sure if I could still come out alive if I went a second time.”

Upon hearing this, Lian Shun clasped Ying Ying’s hand but wasn’t rejected this time.

Su Liang and Gu Ling exchanged glances. Ying Ying didn’t know what Mo Yan wanted, but they knew. That deep pool was probably Mo Yan’s way back, but he didn’t want to take the risk. So he kept forcing people to jump in, hoping for a miracle to happen…
