Chapter 124 Memories
"Xiao Qing suddenly frowned tightly, staring at Sha Wuhen with a sharp gaze. Her body was trembling slightly, and she was obviously very excited.
"What is your relationship with Manager Pan?" Xiaoqing asked gritting her teeth.
Sha Wuhen closed his eyes again expressionlessly and uttered four words coldly: "It has nothing to do with you."
Hearing this, Xiaoqing's brows instantly furrowed even tighter, as if they could pinch a fly to death. She roared angrily, "So what she said about waiting for you for 10 years was also a lie?"
Sha Wuhen remained indifferent, and replied calmly, "No more, no less, it's been 12 years."
Xiaoqing could no longer suppress her anger. Her chest heaved violently as she demanded, "If that's the case, why did you treat her so coldly when you came back this time?"
At this time, Xiaoqing's anger was completely written on her face, and her originally beautiful face was distorted by anger.
Everyone on the side was frightened by Xiaoqing's sudden outburst. Bai Tian said timidly, "Yes, yes, what's wrong with Sister Xiaoqing?" The person who spoke was the one who was stared at by Xiaoqing. Seeing Xiaoqing's furious look, he was so scared that he quickly shrank back and looked at Wu Song next to him for help.
Wu Song held the stick in his hand and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know the situation either, then casually threw the question to Dafei who was standing not far away.
Da Fei also spoke cautiously: "Ever since we left the Shen Sect, Xiao Qing seems to have become different..."
"You want us to help? Humph! Then answer this question first." Xiaoqing stared at Sha Wuhen sharply, as if she saw the shadow of Mo Xie in him. Recalling the scene in the mountains, they were deceived so badly that it was still vivid in their minds.
Sha Wuhen stood with his back to the crowd, tightly gripping the umbrella bag in his hand, his knuckles turning slightly white from the strain. He spoke slowly, "Once involved in this secret, you'll inevitably face immense danger. Therefore, for her safety, it's wisest and most reasonable to draw a clear line between us!"
Bai Tang, who was standing aside, heard this with a look of resentment on his face and couldn't help muttering: "Then does it make sense for you to involve us as well?" Although the voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone.
Facing Bai Tang's questioning, Xiao Qing immediately asked again: "Can't you even say such a gentle word to her?" Her tone became more and more sharp.
"No!" Sha Wuhen suddenly roared, as if unable to suppress his inner emotions any longer. At the same time, memories of twelve years ago flooded back to him like a tide—a time before he'd learned the secret, a time when life was simple and peaceful. His time with Shopkeeper Pan unfolded like a heartwarming scroll before his eyes...
Meanwhile, Shopkeeper Pan was sprawled across the slightly worn wooden table in his room, his body trembling slightly. Tears streamed from his eyes like a flood, trickling down his cheeks and onto the tabletop, forming small puddles. He closed his eyes tightly, his mind involuntarily reminiscing about the happy times he had spent with Sha Wuhen.
Back then, they were like two wild horses, galloping freely across the vast expanse of heaven and earth. They rode their camels, their fur as soft as clouds, and roamed the endless desert. During the day, the blazing sun poured down, illuminating the golden sands with a shimmering brilliance. At night, as darkness fell and stars twinkled in the vast sky, they would light a blazing bonfire, its warm glow illuminating the surrounding darkness. Then, they would work together to build a small, cozy tent, as if this small space belonged to them alone.
In that peaceful and tranquil atmosphere, they opened their hearts and shared their deepest aspirations for the future. They discussed those seemingly unattainable yet deeply inspiring ideals, imagining how to pursue and realize them. Despite his sometimes angry words, like his stubborn insistence that he would never come to her rescue in a crucial moment, whenever she was truly in dire straits, facing a life-or-death crisis, he would always appear by her side like a hero descending from the sky. His unwavering protection gave her a deep sense of security.
However, good times are always so fleeting, like a fleeting moment. Now, all of this has turned into a passing cloud of smoke, dissipated in the long river of time. All that remains is the endless longing that surges into her heart like a tide, and the pain that deeply pierces her soul, constantly lingering and lingering.
Just as Pan was completely immersed in the whirlpool of beautiful memories of the past, suddenly, there was a creaking sound from the wooden door. When Pan looked over again, Gu Feng was already standing in front of his table.
After Gu Feng entered the room, his gaze quickly scanned the surroundings, finally settling on Shopkeeper Pan, who lay sprawled on the table. His lips curled up slightly, revealing a cold smile as he slowly spoke, "I've come here today to request an important favor. I hope you can lend me a hand." Before he finished speaking, he swung his right hand violently, and three streaks of cold light instantly emanated—three incredibly sharp darts!
The three darts pierced the air like lightning, rushing towards Shopkeeper Pan with a sharp whistling sound! Just as they were about to hit the target, Shopkeeper Pan suddenly opened his eyes, dodged the blow, and narrowly avoided the fatal blow.
