What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book Chapter 175

Published at 4th of September 2023 12:50:28 PM

Unknown to when, specks of fireflies flicker by the riverside under the moonlight, creating a hazy and dreamy atmosphere. Occasionally, the sound of insects chirping adds to the tranquil ambiance, blending with the gurgling of the river, resembling a nocturne and enhancing the serenity.

Amidst the nocturne, there are also harmonious melodies, which are the soft sighing voices of a young man and woman.

“Enough… that's enough…” a weak female voice murmured softly, “You deceived me with a mooncake, some marshmallows, and a pancake, bringing me here, and then you kissed and touched me for so long…”

The ancient lady of ten thousand years felt both aggrieved and angry, feeling like she's been deceived. Why did she come to this riverside in the outskirts? Now, in retrospect, it seems that there is nothing else to do in a place like this except for kissing and hugging.

What a waste of time. Even the process of clearing up the scene relies on her own powers, which is truly infuriating.

This is a lesson in love that must be recorded and shown to other girls. If a boy wants to take you to a deserted outskirts at night, don't go. Besides wanting to kiss you, he has no other intentions… If there are, it's even more serious intentions…

Of course, you should also remember that if you want to kiss him yourself, pretend not to know anything, innocently follow him, and then you will fulfill your wish and kiss until your lips become swollen.

Amidst the flowers and under the moon, with the gentle flow of the riverside, and the silence of the wilderness, the environment is so romantically captivating that while kissing, you won't even notice when you've climbed the mountains and clouds, sob, sob, sob…

“If you touch me again…”

“As you wish.”

“?”

“…”

“I said no more touching! My clothes are all messed up!”

Chu Ge kissed her cheeks and neck, whispering all the way, “Qiuqiu, I love you so much…”

Qiu Wuji's mind is a little dazed. It seems like the first time he used such a cheesy “I love you” in modern times to confess. These three words are straightforward and powerful, much more impactful than all the previous pretentious confessions, leaving her head spinning.

He seems to really love me, it's not a lie.

Lost in thoughts, her defense collapses completely.

Mainly because I'm wearing traditional clothes today, it's too convenient to tuck things in the folds, sob sob sob… It's not my fault. Wait a minute. Qiu Wuji opened her eyes and grit her teeth, “Did you bring me to the riverside to do something all in one go?”

“Ah?” Chu Ge didn't really have that intention. It was the atmosphere that got to him, and he couldn't help himself.

Now, being reminded of it, he became somewhat sober and realized that he has actually invaded Cloud Horizon's Peak… Touched and moved to the point of tears, it would be worth it even if he was thrown into the river!

He instinctively touched something.

A trembling softness.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and Qiu Wuji's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

“Ahh!”

A miserable scream echoed, startling the birds to fly and even the chirping of insects stopped.

Chu Ge really wanted to post a thread titled: “What's the experience of being caught by your girlfriend's agile hands every day in a relationship?”

Regardless of the experience, it was worth it today, that warm and slippery touch, that trembling moment. The sensation of that moment lingers in his palm, even though his wrist hurts now.

“I will definitely practice until I surpass you!” Chu Ge vowed to the moon.

Qiu Wuji's tone was cool, “I think when it comes to men's vows under the moon, this line might be the most sincere.”

Chu Ge: “…”

“Really.” Qiu Wuji released him and pouted, “Is that all you think about, those messy things?”

Chu Ge stole a glance at her. Under the moonlight, he could faintly see her flushed face, her clothes slightly disheveled, and a hint of snow white can still be seen. Her hair is also scattered, looking irresistibly attractive.

He couldn't help but swallow, finding it difficult to say, “Attraction between men and women, it's perfectly normal in the order of nature and human relations… It's not just to please you, I couldn't help myself either…”

Qiu Wuji's face was still warm, and she also knew she couldn't resist, she couldn't, otherwise she wouldn't have been caught so easily. That's the way of Yin and Yang, as if naturally attracting each other and achieving Tai Chi.

Chu Ge continued, “If we talk about vows under the moon… besides the previous sincere one, the one before that was also true.”

Before? What did he say before? “Huh?” or “Ah?” He didn't say anything at all…

Qiu Wuji thought for a moment and was sure it was this sentence, “Qiuqiu, I love you.”

Thinking of this sentence, Qiu Wuji's heart felt a bit tingly. She turned her head and said, “Don't believe it. Mengmeng said the most unreliable thing a man can say is this line. She even gave me an example of a folk saying from a country called Spain or something.”

Chu Ge was puzzled, “What folk saying?”

“'I love you forever, with a time limit of three months.'”

“…” Chu Ge was speechless, “How can we bring up foreign folk sayings when we have so many related poems from ancient times?”

Qiu Wuji was angry, “So you understand, huh!”

“I've loved you for more than three months, Qiuqiu.” Chu Ge embraced her again and whispered, “We've known each other for almost four months, and I feel that I love you even more. I wish I could stick to you forever…”

Qiu Wuji's heart began to feel tingly again, and she hesitated, “Well, even if it's more than three months, it's still at most three years.”

“If we must attach the number 'three,' then I think it should be at least three lives.”

“Do you know how many years I have in one life?” Qiu Wuji hummed, “You're still thinking about three lives.”

“Yes, we don't need three lives, because in this life, we are eternal.”

Qiu Wuji's heart skipped a beat, and she struggled to retort, “I, until now, have not been able to surpass the limits of heaven. My lifespan is not eternal, let alone yours. So, you still can't admit that this is just sweet talk?”

“If an ordinary man and woman say 'eternal in this life,' then it might be considered sweet talk. But Qiuqiu…” Chu Ge whispered, “In my writing, you are destined to achieve eternity. In fact, if you were to exist beyond the book, you would reach a level of transcending the heavens and humans, immortal and undying. So, no matter what, you are very likely to be eternal.”

Qiu Wuji was stunned and didn't answer.

But she heard Chu Ge continue, “And I… all my cultivation is for the sake of keeping up with you… whether it's lifespan or to find you within the book.” Even to be able to defeat you, to rightfully earn you.

The latter half of the sentence was left unsaid, and there was no need to say it.

Qiu Wuji once again felt her heart beating fast, and her mind started to feel fuzzy. The sweet words of love are as potent as spiritual arts, their effect is terrifying. What's even more crucial is that she knows he is telling the truth with every word.

So here, by the moon, flowers, and riverside, it becomes more and more touching.

In her dazed state, Qiu Wuji only realized that she is kissing him again, not knowing if it was he who initiated it a bit more or if she did.

As he said, wanting to be stick together, never getting tired of it.

Even when his hand climbed again, she didn't oppose it. Despite having the strength to easily throw him into the river, she felt her limbs going soft and didn't want to exert any force. Wearing traditional clothes is troublesome, allowing him to easily slide them off her shoulders and passionately plant kisses on her neck and shoulders.

Qiu Wuji, somewhat absentminded, tilted her head slightly, looking at the moon above, shining softly like the smiling face of an aunt.

The heavenly dao in that world is him, and the moon is his transformation. In this world, can the heavenly dao be the witness under the moon?

May you and I be eternal in this lifetime.

She always felt that this environment was causing her to lose control, in a way it also protected her. If the situation were convenient, she truly didn't know if she could refuse him and let him push her down. She really felt like she had no strength at all. But unfortunately, because of this kind of setting, with scattered rocks everywhere, it was inconvenient and he couldn't make a move.

She could feel his heavy and labored breathing, as if he was about to explode. Suddenly, Qiu Wuji felt that he looked quite pitiful, and she burst out laughing.

Chu Ge: “…”

“Alright…” Qiu Wuji gently pushed him away, lowered her head to tidy up her disheveled clothes, and pouted, “You're so lecherous.”

Chu Ge: “…”

Turning her head to look at his pitiful and longing expression, Qiu Wuji smiled enchantingly, exuding a hundred charms, “Creator God, are you feeling wronged?”

Chu Ge: “…”

Qiu Wuji took the initiative to lean in, whispering fragrantly in his ear, “Since you've spoken so nicely today, I'll reward you…” She also imitated Chu Ge and kissed his neck, her slender hand slowly moving down and gripping the pestle.

Chu Ge's eyes widened.

“Don't look…” Qiu Wuji murmured, “It's just a little cutie…”

The little cutie was so angry that his veins popped. The little cutie was about to cry.

Chu Ge also absentmindedly gazed at the moon, where it seemed that there was a Jade Rabbit holding a pestle, thumping, thumping…

The person before his eyes was more beautiful than the Jade Rabbit, gentler than the moon. Just like the autumn water in a dream, rippling with the moonlight, it spread through his heart and submerged his soul.

In that moment, it seemed as if he saw the moon smiling.

((The jade rabbit is a well-known figure in Chinese folklore and mythology, often associated with the moon in traditional stories. It is said to be a companion of the moon goddess Chang'e, residing on the moon and pounding medicine or making elixirs))
