How should he put it?
Xu Shenxing, who was also a left-behind child, could understand Hanakayuan Youyuan's feelings to a certain extent. She was abandoned by her parents for more than ten years, and the only person who raised her like family was her father's old lover. Not only that, but she also received strange looks from others when she was growing up, because the mother who abandoned her was a monster.
In addition, as a Onmyoji, she was gradually influenced by the values of Onmyoji generations, so it was understandable that she hated her biological mother, who was the source of everything.
But Xu Shenxing always felt that the girl's way of thinking was distorted by her resentment of her parents' abandonment, which made this hatred a little subtle.
"I said from the beginning, it's not that interesting."
Seeing the expression on Xu Shenxing's face, Hanakayuan naturally guessed some of his thoughts. The girl pushed back her medium-long hair that covered half of her face because of the wind and set up the binoculars again.
Xu Shenxing also felt that the distance between him and the girl had imperceptibly increased.
Only now did he understand why the girl was so cold to others, and why she chose to confess her past to him just now.
Perhaps this girl named Hanakayuan Youyuan had been alone after the death of her aunt named Yimei.
Because of her background, she was not accepted by Onmyojis. Most of her contact with mortals was for missions. Not only was there no way to understand each other, but just casually building a good relationship with them might cause innocent people to be involved in supernatural events. And her identity as a Onmyoji doomed her to be unable to live peacefully with monsters, unless those monsters willingly became her shikigami …
Thinking about it this way, Xu Shenxing's current identity was indeed very special to the girl.
According to the philosophy of Fuso Shinto, most of the so-called gods were actually similar in nature to monsters, but they would not be rejected by Onmyojis. Xu Shenxing's own strength also determined that he would not be in any danger because of his relationship with Youyuan. In addition, Xu Shenxing shamelessly stayed at the girl's house (because he did not have the money to rent a house), so the girl had a certain degree of understanding of his personality. So she told him her past, hoping to get Xu Shenxing's understanding.
Unfortunately, Xu Shenxing failed to live up to her hopes.
So the door of the girl's heart that had been loosened with great difficulty was tightly closed again.
"Actually, I'm about the same as you." Xu Shenxing, who was very unhappy with this feeling, scratched his head, then sighed and told his story. "That was before I became a god (and a savior). My mother left me and my father when I was very young and ran away with a rich man. My father was an archaeologist. He didn't make much money and had to travel all over the world. He only returned home a few times a year. But unlike you, I don't have that 'Auntie Yimei' to take care of me. Since I was young, I was the only one in the empty apartment … If it wasn't for my childhood friend who pulled me up, I'm afraid I would have degenerated into a delinquent. "
"Lord God …"
She turned her head in surprise and looked at the young man who was hugging his knees and leaning against the wall with a look of indulgence on his face.
"Then something happened. In short, although I didn't go bald, I became stronger. If I wanted to, it wouldn't be difficult to find my mother. It wouldn't even be impossible to make my father transform into a tall, rich, and handsome man to slap her face in front of her. " Xu Shenxing showed a slightly bitter smile. He fiddled with the bangs on his forehead and said softly, "When I first returned to Earth, I did have such an idea. I wanted to make that greedy and vain woman regret. I wanted to let her know that the son she regarded as a burden back then had become so amazing … But I gave up in the end. Because doing so will only lead to emptiness and distort one's own desires. You won't be able to get anything other than that momentary pleasure. "
"I didn't want to catch that person for the pleasure of revenge …"
Hanakayuan Youyuan fiercely smashed the binoculars in her hand on the railing. The lens shattered because of this. Clearly, the girl had lost her usual calmness.
"Then what is it for? Do you really hate your mother that much? " Xu Shenxing's words were like a knife stabbing into the girl's weak heart. "If so, why would you subconsciously choose the word 'catch' instead of the word 'retreat' that Yin Yang Masters have always used?"
"That's because …" The girl stopped halfway and bit her lip as if she was enduring something. She was speechless.
"That's because you still want to see her again, right? In fact, you've always missed your mother and wanted to see her again. But the identity of a Yin Yang Master is like a shackle that imprisons your true thoughts, right? "Xu Shenxing pressed on step by step.
"I take back what I said before. Goddess-sama, you're a bad guy."
Although she showed a weak expression for a moment, years of solitude had long made Hanakayuan Youyuan have a strong spirit that was different from ordinary people. Soon, she returned to her usual cold state.
But Xu Shenxing always felt that she was different from before.
"I'm honored."
He laughed and then made a pause gesture to the girl who still wanted to say something. "Let's stop talking about this topic … Now we should get to work."
"Get to work …" The girl was stunned, and then immediately understood what he meant.
The target had appeared.
Just as Youyuan was about to use the binoculars to look at the target, she found that the lens above had been broken.
So she glared at Xu Shenxing with dissatisfaction. The latter whistled and pretended that he didn't know anything.
But immediately, Xu Shenxing stuck his head out and confirmed the target. Then, without saying anything to the girl, he picked her up by the waist and jumped over the railing.
"Yiyiyi — —?!" The girl, who was completely unprepared, was frightened by the extreme bungee jumping from the top of a twenty-two-story building. Her eyes were full of tears, and her mouth made a mournful cry like a dying small animal. Her right hand tightly hugged Xu Shenxing's broad back, and her left hand took out a large number of paper talismans.
But as soon as the paper talismans left her hand, they were blown to some unknown corner by the wind when they fell, and didn't have any effect at all.
Seeing that they were about to hit the ground, Xu Shenxing fiercely kicked a few times, as if he was stepping on something, and the falling speed suddenly slowed down. When they fell to the ground, the impact of the fall was almost gone.
"Scared, scared me to death …" Even though they were on the ground, the girl was still tightly hugging Xu Shenxing's waist. Her legs were weak, and she couldn't stand up.
Not good, it seems that a little bit is missing …
"We landed safely! Stepping on air is really useful! "Xu Shenxing sighed with emotion." If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have fallen into the ground. "
"You're jumping off the building with me without even confirming it …"
Youyuan was still trembling like a frightened kitten.
"Don't worry, if this trick doesn't work, I'll be your meat cushion."
"Is there any difference between that and me falling on an iron plate …"
"My chest muscles may be slightly harder than an iron plate, right?"
"…"
Only now did Blossoming Garden Youyuan confirm one thing.
She needed to take back her words again. This guy wasn't a good person with bad intentions, but a lunatic!
