The words were like a wonderful button. The air in the lounge seemed to be frozen and only the shallow breathing of the two could be heard.

Lou Wenyuan stared at Jiang Rui closely, as if observing her expression. Seeing that she had no objection, he slowly approached.

Unlike many previous kisses, this time when the two separated, their breathing was a little rapid. The temperature around them seemed to rise.

Lou Wenyuan hugged Jiang Rui, so strongly that she almost got her feet off the ground and her whole body was attached to him.

“Do you understand what I mean?” He pressed his forehead against her and his voice slightly mute.

Jiang Rui’s lips were swollen by his kiss. They were rosy and tender, like the bright red cherries hanging on the branches. The two tender and sweet flesh touched one another, “If I don’t understand, do you want to bully me?”

Lou Wenyuan curled his lips, “Yes.”

“Bad guy.” Jiang Rui complained.

He bowed his head and kissed her again, “The bad guy only bullies you.”

After the birthday banquet was over, the two returned to the house. The atmosphere is just right, the affection is strong, and everything after that will follow.

Jiang Rui woke up in the middle of the night and turned over to the side. She suddenly noticed something and touched the bed on the side, but there was no residual temperature. She opened her eyes, stood up, and looked in the room. She was the only one in the room.

She thought about it, lifted the quilt, and got out of bed. The corridor was lit with dim wall lamps and the whole house was quiet, except for a little white light from the room at the end.

She walked over slowly. The door of the room was not closed tightly, through the gap she could see what was inside. There was nothing in the room, only a piece of pure white. The walls, ceiling, and floor were all white, so white.

Lou Wenyuan was in the center of the room at this time, sitting on the floor with his back to the door. Because his nightgown is also white, the whole person almost seems to blend with the background.

She looked at him outside the room for a while and then knocked on the door.

Lou Wenyuan turned his head after hearing the sound. His face was expressionless. Without glasses, his eyes were pure cold.

But when he saw her clearly, it was as if the winter lake met the spring breeze, the ice was blown, and the lake water rippled.

Jiang Rui walked into the room in pink pajamas and the depressive atmosphere created by pure white was instantly cracked.

Lou Wenyuan noticed her bare white feet with disapproval in his eyes and opened his hand at her, “Come to me.”

Jiang Rui trotted over and sat on his crossed legs. The whole person happened to be nestled in his arms.

“Why don’t you sleep?” Lou Wenyuan touched her cheek and touched it with his lips again.

“Already slept, woke up to find you are not there.”

“It’s me who is wrong, I should accompany you.”

That’s what he said, but he did not mean to get up for the time being.

Jiang Rui did not urge, she was waiting for him to speak.

This room doesn’t even have a window. There are only towering white walls around it. It’s not like a room in ordinary people’s homes, but more like a prison cell.

Sure enough, after an unknown period of time, Lou Wenyuan said, “This is the place my mother used to punish me.”

Jiang Rui did not speak, only rubbed his chin.

“It’s okay.” Lou Wenyuan kissed her, “That was a long time ago.”

Lou Wenyuan’s mother, Mrs. Lou is an eccentric woman, which is what many people say about her.

Perhaps she was not eccentric when she was young, but she may be a lively and cute girl. She married with love as she wished, but she did not know that love itself was a lie. The love that could not be asked forcibly rubbed her into a weird woman.

She resented her husband’s ruthlessness but always hoped that he could change his mind, so she treated her only son harshly and asked him to compare his two illegitimate brothers who were more than ten years older to win her husband’s attention. If there was something that did not go to her liking, she would put a few years old child in this room where there was nothing but white and ask him to reflect on himself.

Lou Wenyuan’s childhood was spent almost half of his time here.

Perhaps this morbid method is indeed effective. When Old Mr. Lou was seriously ill, everyone was fighting for the family property. At the age of 20, he successfully expelled his two brothers from the house. At the same time, Old Mr. Lou, who heard the news, was furious.

At this time, Mrs. Lou resented her son for letting her lose her husband. She could not accept the fact that she could not afford to be ill and soon followed her love.

“I don’t like it here.” Jiang Rui said suddenly after a long silence.

“I don’t like it either.” Lou Wenyuan replied.

Jiang Rui turned around in his arms and hung her hands on his neck, “Let’s remodel this room.”

Lou Wenyuan hugged her waist and gently stroked her with his big palm, “Okay…”

He suddenly froze. The smooth touch under his palm told him that this body in his arms, under the pink suspender pajamas, she was not wearing anything, not only above…

“Just run out like this.” There seemed to be some reproach in his words, but his hands hugged her tightly. The temperature of his palms became hotter and hotter.

Jiang Rui kissed him on the lips and then withdrew a little as if she felt that his lips were a little dry. The tip of her pink tongue quickly poked out, wetting the two lips, before she said coquettishly: “It’s not to blame you, I don’t know where to throw me before.”

A word made Lou Wenyuan’s eyes more gloomy. He was no longer restrained, lowered his head, and blocked the lips and tongues that always said deceitful words.

After that, Jiang Rui lay on top of him and ruffled her sweaty hair behind her, “I’m going to open a window on that wall and then paint the whole room the color of a rainbow.”

“Good.” Lou Wenyuan touched her long hair.

After today, the room that had imprisoned him for more than 30 years, whether it was the depressive white or the vivid rainbow, in his heart, there was only the charm with her faint fragrance.

Because of her, everything in the past will be buried like all things that have passed.

He suddenly said: “You will always be with me.” This was supposed to be a request for consent, but he said it was an established statement.

Jiang Rui yawned a little, “Always.”

“Forever and always.”

She was startled slightly, “…forever.”

This world is the same. After Lou Wenyuan died, Jiang Rui withdrew and left.

Unlike the dim soul of ordinary people, what was extracted from Lou Wenyuan’s body was a bright fluorescent mass and the aura wrapped around his body was accompanied by her breath, which was the result of her nourishment.

Perhaps for this reason, when she returned to the Nine Heavens and handed over the fluorescent mass, it entangled around her fingertips a few times before leaving.

Jiang Rui was startled for a while, almost thinking that he still remembered something, but she knew it was impossible.

Once the life is over and re-enters the cycle, the memory of the previous life must be washed away.

She remembers that when the two got married, Lou Wenyuan stubbornly changed the lifetime in the wedding vow to forever. Jiang Rui also followed him. Anyway, after the end of his life, he would not remember what promises he had made.

She suddenly felt a little tired. This kind of feeling had never happened before, probably because of frequent trips to the small world, so she was too exhausted. After returning to the residence, she entered a short rest state and waited for her spiritual power to recover before heading to the next world.

This is the ending of this arc.

After the end of his life, he would not remember what promises he had made.

I think our MC is so miserable. Huhuhu…
