Xi Yue's breathing quickened, her eyes fixed on him, her voice trembling with nervousness, "Ji Mingyu, do you still remember this?"
Do you still remember our token of love? Do you still remember the vows we made to each other
Ji Mingyu, are you the lover I have been searching for for so long
The light in Ji Mingyu's eyes flickered. After a moment of silence, he suddenly turned his wrist and a silver light appeared on his palm.
Xi Yue only took a glance at the thing in her palm, and her pupils suddenly contracted.
He held Ji Mingyu's wrist with trembling hands and picked up the thing in his palm.
The cool touch transmitted through her fingertips made her realize that what was in her hands was real.
It was a silver ring, a men's ring.
On the inner circle of the ring, there is also a line of words engraved - Xi & Yu, never separate.
Tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably, and drops of them slid down her cheeks, blurring her vision.
Ji Mingyu panicked for a moment, threw the ring from her hand away, hugged her in his arms, with a little heartache in his eyes, "Xi'er, what's wrong? Why are you crying? Is this ring making you sad? Then I'll destroy it..."
"No!" Xi Yue grabbed Ji Mingyu's raised hand, clenched it tightly in her palm, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Ji Mingyu, tell me honestly, where did you get this ring?"
The girl's eyes were filled with tears, yet they were so clear and bright that one dared not look directly at them, as if they were the brightest crystal in the world.
Ji Mingyu opened his mouth and wanted to say that he picked it up from Miluo.
But when he saw the hopeful look in the girl's eyes, he felt so lonely and desolate as if he had grabbed the last straw and couldn't even utter his original answer.
After a long while, he heard himself say in a cold voice: "I don't know."
He didn't know where the ring came from or why it appeared at his feet.
He didn't even know why he felt heartbroken and unable to give up the ring the first time he saw it.
Now, he understood.
Because this ring ties the fate between him and Xiyue.
Ji Mingyu had suspected that Xi Yue might be related to the tribulation of his former clone.
However, the most important point in the Ji family's method of experiencing the tribulation through the clone is to sever the ties of past lives and return to one's original heart.
Therefore, they cannot explore their past, nor can they explore it.
Otherwise, it will bring great disaster to yourself, the world and your loved ones who have experienced the disaster.
Even if the fate between him and Xi Yue was really brought about by his former incarnation, it didn’t matter.
He only knew that the past was past, and Xiyue's future was destined to belong to him.
Xi Yue was startled at first, but instead of being disappointed, a light shone in her eyes. "You mean, when you woke up, the ring was already by your side?"
Ji Mingyu frowned slightly, neither answering yes nor no.
However, Xiyue took his answer as a tacit consent.
She held Ji Mingyu's hand tightly, tears welling up in her eyes again. Hot drops of water fell on the back of Ji Mingyu's hand, almost burning his skin.
"Xi'er..."
Ji Mingyu wanted to speak, but Xi Yue covered his mouth, and the girl's hoarse voice rang in his ears.
"Nangong Yu, do you know how hard my life has been these days? Do you know how much I miss you?" (To be continued)
