Chapter 333 The Sweet Flower Promise
Upon hearing Ying's sudden words, Huiyuan's thoughts instantly ceased.
The phrase "I am your lover" kept echoing in my mind, and my heart started pounding wildly.
Seeing that Huiyuan had inexplicably gone into a daze, Ying showed a puzzled expression.
"Yuanbao, what's wrong? Don't you believe what I'm saying?"
Huiyuan did not respond, but remained smiling and lost in thought.
Seeing this, Ying pondered for a moment.
"That's strange... Could it be that besides amnesia, there are other aftereffects? Dementia?"
Just then, Paimon yawned and woke up.
"...Traveler, isn't it time to eat... Oh—Yuanbao is awake! Hey, what are you all spacing out for?"
"No, Paimon, I wasn't spacing out... Yuanbao suddenly became demented, it might be a sequela."
"Huh, aftereffects?! How could this happen..."
At this moment, Huiyuan's thoughts were racing.
I thought of things like...getting married, having children, intimate acts, I thought of them all.
However, in the end, all that was left was an awkward feeling.
Having a child? Are you kidding me? That's ridiculous!
(What should I do? When did Ying unlock her yuri (lesbian) attributes? I'm a girl right now...)
If we just accept this as a romantic relationship, won't I feel guilty when I turn back into a boy later?!
And then you can never go back! Sister Tongzi, please give me some advice! What do we do now?!
Seeing this scene, the system clapped its hands in its heart, and the soul of the Amusement Man was overjoyed.
"Hey..."
After uttering that laugh, the system did not respond further.
(System! Don't do this! You're the most powerful AI, you should be able to figure out a solution!)
"Host, my suggestion is: confess and you will be treated leniently, resist and you will be punished severely. Just confess directly."
(How...how could this happen? If Ying finds out I'm faking amnesia, wouldn't that be even worse?)
After brainstorming for a while, Huiyuan couldn't think of any other way, so she decided to be honest and slowly began to speak.
"Um... I'm sorry, Yingmei! Actually, I haven't lost my memory..."
"Ah, you didn't lose your memory...really?"
"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect you to say... love... cough cough, I'm sorry..."
No, no, this is too embarrassing. I feel like Ying is about to punch me any second... Get ready to get yelled at...
However, the expected iron fist did not arrive, nor did any sound of life.
Ying was surprised for a moment, then said with relief, "Well, at least you haven't lost your memory."
"Huh? What happened just now..."
"What's up, [lovers]? It's just a joke between best friends, no need to take it seriously..."
"Ah...just kidding, did you see through my faking amnesia?"
No, I took it seriously.
"Then why..."
"Oh, I was just thinking that it would be easier to take you on adventures in the future, and maybe we could find an opportunity to regain your memories. Besides, even if you actually believed me because you have amnesia, what could two girls like us do?"
Seeing the smug look on Ying's face, Huiyuan became insecure.
(I'm a seasoned anime fan, yet when it comes to forbidden love, my awareness is less than that of an innocent girl like Yingmei?!)
At this point, Paimon was puzzled.
"What are you saying? I don't understand..."
Ying glanced at Paimon, who had drifted to her right ear, and raised the back of her hand to brush her away.
"Paimon is still young, you're not allowed to ask."
When Ying pushed him aside, Paimon looked on with an incredulous expression.
Since we first encountered this, emergency rations have never received such treatment!
Reaching Ying's left ear, Paimon shook his hands and feet, becoming anxious.
"Tell me quickly, I'm really curious."
"Little kid, don't ask!"
After saying that, Ying turned around, stood up, and walked out the door.
Paimon refused to give up and chased after him, relentlessly pursuing him.
"No, no, I'll listen! Tell me quickly, what do you mean by what you're saying? Is it related to food?"
"I said you can't listen, so you can't ask. Paimon, Yuanbao has slept for three days and three nights, his stomach is probably empty. Let's go prepare some food."
"Uh...oh, okay..."
After the person and the flying object left, Huiyuan instantly felt his ears go quiet.
I took a deep breath and decided to open my phone to see if there was anything new on my WeChat Moments.
Just as she raised her hand, Huiyuan froze again.
"This is... a sweet flower? Could it be a memorial for someone who thinks I'll never wake up? No... no, no... how can you use this kind of flower for a memorial? Did Ying leave it behind? Or did someone deliberately place it next to my hand?"
The sweet flower symbolizes sweetness and beauty, just like the things Huiyuan brought to Zhongli, Wendy, Ying, and Aunt Ping.
Morax, the Geo Archon, once simply regarded Gui Zhong as an ordinary friend, but little did he know that after Gui Zhong's death, he developed feelings of love for him.
Huiyuan resurrected Guizhong and brought her to the present Zhongli.
Zhongli, who had long since sealed away this love, has now regained this old friend, allowing her to experience the joy of something lost and found again.
It's a pity that love was sealed away long ago; Zhongli only regarded Guizhong as a friend, without any other ulterior motives.
If only Gui Zhong had been a little bolder and confessed his feelings first.
Gui Zhong unilaterally teases Zhong Li as if he were her boyfriend, making it so hard to ship them as a couple.
Grandma Ping also returned to her youthful appearance due to Gui Zhong's resurrection, becoming Aunt Ping.
The sweetness and happiness that Wendy and Ying experienced in Hunyuan were plentiful and satisfying!
The adjective seems a bit off, never mind.
"Who put this sweet flower in my hand... Hmm... Never mind, I'll get dressed and go for a walk."
Muttering to herself, Huiyuan changed her clothes.
Before leaving, I glanced at the sweet flower again and hesitated.
(What if someone gave it to me? It's not right to just leave it like this... I'll wear it on my head. Right, I need to change back to my original body. I can't keep using Lingling's skin, otherwise... after a while, I won't recognize my original form anymore.)
She nodded and then tucked the sweet flower into her hair.
(Just like the sweet flower, I want to bring more of the beauty that should exist back to people. Great Tree King... and the Water God, the Yakshas, Teppei, wait to be resurrected!)
At this moment, Ying, who was washing vegetables in the kitchen, had nothing but panic in her eyes.
The thought of what she had just said made her want to die.
(Ah—! What did I just say! Lovers? Confession? Me and Yuanbao...? I'm not some kind of yuri character in a role-playing game!!!)
The more he thought about it, the more vigorously he washed the vegetables.
In a daze... finding her brother didn't seem so important anymore; her mind was filled with Huiyuan's adorable expressions.
