Chapter 1964: I Am Sorry; There Really Is No Way
Gu Xijiu had been full of surprises since the beginning. He could hardly handle it anymore! He ground his teeth with rage. If her life were not at stake, he would have left her. This woman had made her appearance in so many different forms. What did she want, exactly?
She appeared and disappeared so mysteriously every time. When he intended to search for her, she never showed up. When he gave up on her, she suddenly reappeared. He could not figure out how he truly felt about her. There was a mixture of joy and rage, also some elements of hatred and surprise. He was overwhelmed with a strong wave of emotions. He could not pinpoint exactly how she made him feel. He only knew that he must keep her alive. Saving her life was the priority.
He was obsessed with hygiene, so he hated it when others came too close to him. However, he did not have the same attitude towards her. Sometimes, he would even wish to pull her close into his embrace to caress and protect her. He even kissed her when he was desperate to help her swallow the pill.
He had set his heart to save her life, so he did not consider many other things. He would not rest until she was conscious and finally found the strength to sit up. He had even contributed his first kiss in order to save her life. That was a huge sacrifice because he once hated this woman the most.
His mother had once told him that his first kiss must be reserved for the one he liked the most. Only then it would become a pleasant memory. His father and mother kept their first kisses for one another. As for his, he submitted it so casually. Was he being possessed? Was he not thinking straight?
Shen Nianmo was oppressed with the thought, so he had to vent his anger on the snakes. He knew that Gu Xijiu wanted the snakes alive, so he killed them on purpose in order to go against her wish. Surely, Gu Xijiu was not sure of all the thoughts that were going on in his head. Meanwhile, she was focusing entirely on the bracelet.
She roughly remembered that the bracelet used to be in the shape of a small dragon. The bracelet was formed when its head was assembled to the tail. Probably, there would be an opening mechanism somewhere. She was looking for the lock, hoping that she could get the bracelet off his wrist.
