Zong Yu was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Lin also looked at the man in front of him with some surprise.
He had changed again.
He is not a delicate child of six or seven years old, nor is he a handsome young man full of vigor and vitality.
He truly became a mature, upright man. His facial features became more profound, his aura became more dignified, and just standing there gave people a mountain-like pressure.
"Are you an adult now?" Jiang Lin asked him.
Zong Yu was a little at a loss. He looked at Jiang Lin, wanting to run but also wanting to stop and look. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He just nodded silently.
"What is this?" Jiang Lin pointed at the cold marrow on the ground.
Zong Yu replied: "A small gift."
"For me?"
Zong Yu nodded.
He was actually very scared.
Because he had promised Jiang Lin that when he reached adulthood and completely absorbed the inherited memory in his blood, he would terminate the Taoist Companion Contract between the two of them.
He didn't expect this moment to come so soon.
Jiang Lin was somewhat puzzled by his silence. After all, in his impression, no matter which small clan they were from, they were all arrogant and conceited. Could it be possible that their personalities could change after they became adults
He asked, "If you are giving me a gift, why are you doing it in secret?"
Zong Yu was still in a dilemma. He wondered for a moment, did Jiang Lin forget what we talked about before? Did he forget that I could cancel the contract? Or...
He held a glimmer of hope in his heart, because in the previous world, Jiang Lin clearly told him to find him.
He regretted his harsh words not long after he made them.
But by then Jiang Lin had already left, and he had already said that he would not look for him.
After enduring for a long time, he finally came up with a witty idea: he created a little accident, sealed his memory and body, and then gave the right to choose to himself without memory.
If I, who have no memories, don't go looking for Jiang Lin, that's fine.
Even if I don't have any memory, I still have to look for him...
Zong Yu said: That has nothing to do with me, it was done by me who had lost my memory.
Facts have proved that even if he has lost his memory, he is still instinctively attracted to Jiang Lin.
"What if you don't want to?" he whispered.
Jiang Lin laughed: "So do you think I would accept something from a stranger?"
Zong Yu said nothing.
He thought: You don’t know who sent it from you, so it’s better to not accept it than to throw it away knowing it was sent by me.
Besides, what if there’s something Jiang Lin likes in it
Then Jiang Lin asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly give me a gift?"
Zong Yu glanced at him and before he could open his mouth, he heard Jiang Lin's next words:
"I want to hear the truth."
Zong Yu then told the truth honestly: "I want to please you."
He added: "And an apology."
This straight ball came unexpectedly. Jiang Lin was surprised but also felt that it was as it should be. Zong Yu was supposed to be such a straightforward person.
He skipped the first sentence and wondered, "Why apologize?"
Zong Yu hit back with another straight shot: "Because I don't keep my word."
"I said I wouldn't bother you, but I couldn't do it. Not even after I lost my memory."
He stared at Jiang Lin without blinking: "In the last world, you asked me to continue to look for you according to my feelings. What does that mean?"
This straight ball was obviously unavoidable.
Jiang Lin felt a little uncomfortable, but he quickly suppressed it.
Humans are not plants, so isn't it normal for us to have some worldly desires
He looked Zong Yu straight in the eye and said frankly, "It means exactly what it says. Wasn't my statement clear enough?"
Zong Yu felt that he was not a fool, and Jiang Lin's hint was quite obvious.
However, this matter concerns Jiang Lin, and it is something he has been looking forward to for thousands of years.
He could only be cautious and careful, and didn't dare to think in a positive way at all.
He is scared.
The more you care, the more afraid you are.
Even someone as lawless as him was worried that he was just being wishful thinking.
He felt painful just thinking about the possibility of falling from the clouds again after holding on to hope.
He shook his head and muttered, "It's not clear enough. I dare not think about it."
He took a step forward, his eyes shrouding Jiang Lin: "How about you make your hint more obvious?"
Have you learned to take advantage of others
Jiang Lin was so angry that he suddenly raised his hand and hit Zong Yu on the head quickly, then turned around and left without saying a word.
"If you can't figure it out, think about it carefully. Come back to me when you figure it out!"
Zong Yu looked at his back and his eyes suddenly brightened.
He strode over and caught up with Jiang Lin, his eyebrows raised with familiar pride and pride: "I don't want to think about it anymore, I will follow you, and I will figure it out completely!"
Jiang Lin raised the corner of his mouth and pointed at the Tai Sui and Ginseng dolls that Zong Yu had sent over some time ago and were still thrown in the corner: "You found them, deal with them yourself."
The ginseng doll had been crying a lot these past few days, and now there were tears in its eyes, its nose was red, and it was looking at the two of them as if it was about to cry or not.
Zong Yu groaned: "This ginseng is quite nutritious, otherwise we can stew it in a pot..."
Ginseng Doll: Wow!
Since he had transformed, he had already awakened his intelligence, so he naturally understood what Zong Yu was saying. Hearing this, he burst into tears again.
Jiang Lin was so annoyed that his head hurt. He rubbed his forehead and said, "You'd better shut up. If you keep on making noise, I'll really stew you."
The ginseng doll sobbed a little, didn't dare to cry anymore, and burped loudly.
Jiang Lin said: "It is not easy to cultivate and attain enlightenment, let him go."
Zong Yu always believed what Jiang Lin said, so he nodded readily, but still felt a little regretful: "Really not stewing it? Or pulling a handful of hair off would be nice too."
Ginseng Doll: “…”
He pursed his lips and tears rolled out of his eyes again.
Jiang Lin couldn't bear to watch this, so he waved his hand to remove the red rope and said, "Let's go. Be more careful next time and don't let others catch you so easily."
The child was freed and smiled with joy, but he didn't dare to come closer. He bowed to Jiang Lin from a distance, then quickly burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
After watching the excitement for a while, Xiaoqing poked her head out of the door and looked at Zong Yu with curiosity and fear: "Brother Jiang Lin, is he the monster who gave you the gift? Who is he?"
Zong Yu had been here for quite some time, so he naturally knew that Jiang Lin lived with two snake demons that had not yet transformed.
He said, "I am Jiang Lin's Taoist partner."
After saying this, he stared at Jiang Lin closely to see his reaction.
Jiang Lin seemed surprised for a moment and glanced at Zong Yu, but did not refute in the end.
He admitted it!
Zong Yu was overjoyed.
Only Xiaoqing was confused: "Daoist companion?"
She suddenly realized, Taoist partner!
Brother Jiang Lin quietly transformed himself and even found a Taoist partner!
