Splash, splash... The water from the showerhead hit the floor. Ye Shuang looked at himself in the mirror and could not help but brush the wet hair from his forehead.
Although Ye Shuang had stalled for a bit of time after dinner, he still ended up coming to the hotel.
Taking a shower was the only way he could stall for a little more time; after all, there did not seem to be any other good options right now.
Were they going to do it?
Ye Shuang shook his head, changed into a bathrobe, and walked out of the bathroom.
You take so long to shower. It actually took you half an hour, An Shiyi said lazily, lying on her stomach on the bed and looking at the book in her hands. The mood is almost gone, honestly.
Exactly, An Shiyu chimed in.
Looking at the two fishes, Ye Shuang was speechless. ...
He dried his hair with a towel, not knowing what to say for a moment. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Ye Shuang thought for a few seconds before finally speaking.
I feel like this is still too early. I am sorry to both of you... but I just cannot accept this right now. I am sorry.
He still chose to say it. Perhaps it would hurt An Shiyu and her sister, but Ye Shuang felt that doing it without any feelings was actually irresponsible and would end up hurting them as well.
Since that was the case, it was better to make things clear.
The room was dead silent.
Pfft. The next second, the two fishes looked at each other, inexplicably showing expressions as if they were holding back laughter.
Ye Shuang froze for a moment, then asked in confusion, Is this... funny?
No, we are not laughing, the girl said, keeping a straight and serious face.
You clearly were laughing, were you not? Ye Shuang said, speechless.
Hearing this, An Shiyu propped her face up on the bed, her beautiful eyes inexplicably looking at Ye Shuang with a smile.
An Shiyi patted the empty spot next to her.
Lie down here.
Ye Shuang glanced at the spot, but under the gaze of the two girls, he laid down anyway.
the two fishes shimmied over the blanket and each picked a side to lie down on.
Feeling the heavy sensation and faint fragrance on both of his shoulders, Ye Shuang thought they were about to do it. Just as he was about to refuse, he saw the two girls' eyes seemingly shimmering with light.
Uncle.
...
Thank you. This single sentence made Ye Shuang's originally resistant movements soften a bit. He looked at the two fishes in confusion, not quite understanding what they meant.
Actually, the whole girlfriend thing was just a joke, An Shiyu hugged him a little tighter. Sorry for tricking you.
My bad, An Shiyi also said. At that time, you had forgotten about us, so we just said it thinking, what would happen if we said this... but we never expected you to actually take it seriously.
the two fishes thought Ye Shuang would angrily question them the next second about why they did that, but Ye Shuang appeared very calm. He just slowly let out a breath, as if exhaling all the frustration in his chest.
You are not mad?
How should I put it... were we very close in the past? Ye Shuang asked instead. He did not know why he was not angry at the two fishes after learning the truth, perhaps subconsciously, he felt that this was just how their personalities were.
You have touched my butt, An Shiyi raised her hand.
... Ye Shuang fell silent for a moment. Is that true?
What do you think?
Sorry... Ye Shuang felt like it was probably true.
You do not remember us? An Shiyu asked, her tone trembling slightly. Not even a single memory?
I do not remember, Ye Shuang answered honestly.
There is really nothing we can do about it then, An Shiyi also said. Although her tone was light, it was evident from her expression that her face looked a bit sorrowful.
Sensing the emotion in the two girls' voices, Ye Shuang quietly looked at them. He slightly raised his arms and gently stroked the backs of their heads.
I am sorry... my amnesia has caused trouble for you.
the two fishes suddenly trembled, then sat up straight with their backs facing Ye Shuang.
Ye Shuang watched for a few seconds. Just as he noticed their trembling shoulders and was about to speak, An Shiyu suddenly spoke up.
You... are getting married to Chen Qin, right?
Hearing this, Ye Shuang nodded. Yes.
Congratulations.
Ye Shuang froze for a moment, then smiled. Thank you.
You can leave now, An Shiyu suddenly said.
Huh? Ye Shuang did not expect her to say that. Looking at the faint tears welling up in the corners of her eyes, he hesitated but still asked,
Are you... crying?
Just kidding. An Shiyu suddenly smiled as if her face had changed masks. Otherwise, did you really want to spend the night here with us? Or did you bring an umbrella?
Ye Shuang's expression turned awkward as he said, Well...
We have never done it with you anyway, An Shiyi also said, stepping her foot on Ye Shuang's shoulder. Alright, change your clothes and leave. This matter ends here.
Hearing this, Ye Shuang got up and went to change his clothes.
A minute later, Ye Shuang came out of the bathroom and saw the two fishes still lazily lying on their stomachs on the bed. He asked, Should we... leave now?
Yeah, you go back, An Shiyu waved her hand dismissively. We are going to play games here for a while. Goodbye, Uncle NPC.
An Shiyi just wiggled her feet in the air.
Ye Shuang smiled helplessly.
However, seeing that both of the two fishes were shooing him away, he thought about it and had no choice but to say,
Then let us talk next time.
Saying that, he walked to the front door.
Reaching out to hold the doorknob for a few seconds, Ye Shuang looked back at the girls playing on their phones with their heads down, before finally pushing the door open and leaving.
The hotel room fell silent.
Why did you chase Uncle away? After a few seconds, An Shiyi spoke up.
An Shiyu looked at her phone and did not answer. It was not until the long-haired girl beside her spoke again that she softly said,
Stop asking.
You... An Shiyi looked at An Shiyu, then also lay down on the bed. He already lost his memories of us. If we do not hold on tight, he might become a complete stranger in the future.
Perhaps that is not a bad thing, An Shiyu simply said.
Huh? An Shiyi was a bit surprised that An Shiyu would say that. She should be the one who cared the most, right?
To help out, she was secretly injured by that Gorilla but would not even breathe a word of it to Ye Shuang.
After losing his memories, he can create a more beautiful future... An Shiyu said slowly.
But for him, a future without me is a better future, is it not?
Hearing this, An Shiyi was uncharacteristically silent for a few seconds, as if she was sulking. I do not know.
Are you really willing to just give up? she asked.
No, I am not. An Shiyu put down her phone and said softly,
A true ninja is someone who can endure everything.
Please do not say that while crying.
You too, okay?
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty."
