Actually, she was not ugly.
Tang Huaixiao had forgotten what she was originally here for. She watched as Shi Jiu colored the drawing to make it more realistic.
Her heart was beating fast, and the words from that night echoed in her ears.
She heard him say, “Huaixiao, your heart is beating so fast.”
The sky had turned dark at some point. Shi Jiu looked at Tang Huaixiao and said, “Huaixiao, you won’t be angry that I included myself in the drawing, right?”
He liked this woman. He was deeply attracted to her. No matter which side of her, he liked it all.
He wanted to walk into her world, both in the drawing and in reality. He wanted to be a part of her life.
Tang Huaixiao picked up the drawing paper. The ink had gradually dried. She said calmly, “Pack up and go to the front hall. Father and Mother have something to tell you.”
Tang Huaixiao did not look at Shi Jiu. She took the drawing paper and walked out. She knew that Shi Jiu was looking at her, but she could not do anything. It was enough for her to have this drawing.
She knew that Shi Jiu would eventually disappear and become the real him.
Tang Huaixiao was stunned for a moment when her hand was suddenly grabbed. She forgot to react. Just as she was about to leave, she was pulled back. Her back was leaning against the door. A familiar smell approached, and she forgot to escape.
Shi Jiu’s eyes were deep. He looked at Tang Huaixiao and said, “Huaixiao, we might never meet again, but I’ve already fallen in love with you. Even if I’m gone, you have to be well. Remember, there’s someone who cares about you deeply.”
Tang Huaixiao looked at Shi Jiu. She saw a faint smile on his face. He understood everything.
Something warm slid down her face. Tang Huaixiao felt that her vision was blurry for a moment.
The smell that belonged to someone gradually dissipated. She heard footsteps going out.
Tang Huaixiao gulped and raised her hand to wipe her face. She was crying. She didn’t know when her tears had flowed out. She felt a little sad. Her heart had long turned into ice, but it was melted by a man called Shi Jiu.
Henceforth, there would always be a place for him in her heart…
Tang Huaixiao looked at the drawing paper in her hand. It was already dry. She rolled it up and slowly walked out of the courtyard. Tang Huaixiao did not go to the main hall immediately. Instead, she returned to her room to put the drawing paper away.
After everything was done, she went to the main hall.
Shi Jiu walked into the main hall with a calm and gentle expression. He bowed slightly to Master Tang and Madam Tang. “Father-in-law, Mother-in-law.”
When Master Tang heard Shi Jiu call him Father-in-law, he felt complicated. “Shi Jiu is here.”
This was the son-in-law he liked the most, but fate was playing tricks on him. No matter how much Master Tang wanted to keep Shi Jiu, he couldn’t force him.
Madam Tang raised her sleeve to wipe her tears.
Shi Jiu nodded. “1 don’t know why Father-in-law and Mother-in-law asked me to come. I was drawing Huaixiao’s portrait just now, so 1 came late. If I knew that it was so important, 1 would have come earlier.”
Master Tang looked at Liu Sanniang. After waiting for so long, Liu Sanniang was not impatient.
Now that Shi Jiu was here, Master Tang said, “Shi Jiu, you lost your memory. I called you here to help you retrieve your lost memory. This is Miss Liu. She can help you remember your past.”
Shi Jiu glanced at Liu Sanniang with a cold expression. He then looked at Master Tang. “Father-in-law, my matter is not important. Let Miss Liu help the family first.”
Master Tang sighed in his heart and said, “Shi Jiu, Miss Liu has already helped the family. The matter at home has been resolved. From Huaixiao’s generation onwards, the Tang family will no longer have incomplete children.”
Shi Jiu said happily, “That’s great.”
He lowered his eyes. The curse on the Tang family had been removed. The biggest problem between him and Huaixiao was now gone. He did not want to go back to being his original self. Why couldn’t he just be the way he was now?
Master Tang nodded and looked at him. “Shi Jiu, after you retrieve your memory, you can decide whether you want to marry Huaixiao. Shi Jiu, you are the son-in-law I value the most. No one can replace you.”
Master Tang was serious. Shi Jiu had lost his memory. He was the Third Prince. As long as he retrieved his memory and still wanted to marry Tang Huaixiao, Master Tang would fulfill his wish even if he already had a princess consort.
Shi Jiu smiled. “Father-in-law, it’s a deal!”
Tang Huaijin said loudly, “Brother-in-law, don’t worry. Our father has the final say. If Huaixiao dares to disobey, we’ll teach her a lesson.”
However, the premise was that after regaining his memory, he still liked Tang Huaixiao.
Shi Jiu nodded. He looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “Miss Liu, can we talk in private?”
After saying that to Liu Sanniang, Shi Jiu turned to Master Tang and said, “Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, First Brother, Second Brother, I’m sorry. Please give me some space to deal with my own problem.”
Master Tang and Madam Tang stood up and left. Soon, only Liu Sanniang and the others were left in the main hall.
Shi Jiu looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “Miss Liu, you are the same as in the dream.”
He remembered both dreams.
It was also because of those two dreams that he remembered that he could only come out to protect Xia Hongming when he needed to.
When necessary, in order to survive, he would do anything even if he had to abandon his dignity. He was lucky to meet the Tang siblings and was saved by them, so he did not suffer much.
Liu Sanniang looked at Shi Jiu and nodded.
Shi Jiu smiled. “What should I do?”
Liu Sanniang said, “Just extend your hand.”
Shi Jiu walked to the other side of Liu Sanniang and sat down. He extended his hand with a calm expression.
Liu Sanniang placed her hand on his wrist.
Shi Jiu felt a warm force gradually enveloping him. He said slowly, “Miss Liu, have you ever thought about what to do if you can’t find me or if I’m dead?”
Liu Sanniang replied calmly. “Even if you are dead, I’ll have to see your corpse.”
Shi Jiu forced a smile. “Miss Liu, you are really honest..”
