Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess

Chapter 77: 077: Highschool Reunion (5)



The sudden slap left not only the receiver but also the audience dumbfounded. Sui Lengya raised his head while touching his throbbing cheek, looking at the lady in front of him with disbelief. Yue Xuexia's face remained indifferent while meeting the eyes of Sui Lengya. There is even a hint of annoyance in the depths of her eyes.

"Wake up to reality. Everything in the past is over and there will never be a future for us. Live your own life and I will live my own. So, stop asking unnecessary things. Do you understand, Sui Lengya?" Yue Xuexia spoke these words with a commanding tone. It left Sui Lengya speechless.

This time he completely woke up to reality, especially when he noticed the gossipy eyes of everyone in the vicinity, looking at him like a fool, and then within the crowd, he saw his wife, Cui Ruru, looking at him with disappointment. Cui Ruru has never felt this embarrassed in her life. Even when Yue Xuexia spoke out about her dress, at least she believes there is still her husband by her side.

"Husband?" Cui Ruru calls while holding a pill holder in her hands.

Cui Ruru overheard the words Yue Xuexia said to Sui Lengya, which greatly affected her as well. She is not blind, and the crowd also had eyes. Obviously, Yue Xuexie ignored him on purpose and wanted to have nothing with him. How come her husband had to lie to her, saying he was not feeling well? She is so worried that she left to get some medicine for him only to return to the hall and see him smiling one-sidedly at Yue Xuexia, who doesn't even want to bother looking at him.

Cui Ruru felt tired. She had done bad things all her life, but she had always been sincere with Sui Lengya. She decided to leave the hall and wanted to go home. She wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. At least go to the place where she will be alone. Even so she chooses to just go home. After all, she still has her children waiting for her to return.

"Ruru?" mumbled Sui Lengya.

Yue Xuexia said, "Follow her. She is the only one who can become a family with you. I will never be me. Sui Lengya, it's time to move on." Just as she was about to return to her seat, a coat was suddenly draped over her shoulders. It was Shen Jueyang who removed his coat and placed it over her.

Shen Jueyang said with a smile, "You also need to rest. Let's go home, Xue'er."

"Okay, let's go home," Yue Xuexia said. As if tired, Yue Xuexia leans on Shen Jueyang, who carries her in his arms.

Shen Jueyang said, "Well then we shall excuse ourselves for tonight. Xue'er's health is quite fragile, as everyone knows. I hope everyone will enjoy your evening in our place. Have a pleasant evening~" He walks away carrying Yue Xuexia, who was leaning on his shoulder with her eyes closed. The two of them left the hall and headed to the President Suite on the top floor of the hotel.

All eyes were on Yue Xuexia and Shen Jueyang as they took their leave. The hotel staff were respectful, even holding the door for them.

On the other hand, Sui Lengya, who was dazed, suddenly recalled his wife's despairing expression before she left. He hurriedly ran back to their room and looked for her. Yue Xuexia's were painful, but as they said, the truth hurts. He should have realized that everything had ended on the day they'd graduated from high school. The separation at that time was a result of his own actions, and he indeed no longer has any right to get involved with Yue Xuexia. It was just that his guilt for what he did in the past was eating him up. Now he will never forget about that beautiful fairy who once became his but destroyed her heart with his own hands. Sui Lengya had no other choice but to let go.

The party resumed without problems. The organizers of the reunion party are still there. Xu Xingju had handled the rest after Yue Xuexia and Sui Lengya had taken their leave. Those in the hall chose to forget what just happened and enjoy the night.

Back to the side of the organizers:

Hu Yiran had suddenly said, "Sui Lengya is truly shameless. He is already an adult. Why is he still bothering Xiaxia after all these years!? Do you think he followed Xiaxia, A'Ling?"

"Based on his expression before he leaves, he most likely is not. Yue Xuexia was too straightforward with her words just now. Who told him to ask her if she is happy? At the very least, as someone who is a scum, those words aren't something he should have asked," Chen Yiling said.

Xu Xingju said, "Alright. Forget about what ended. It's a bit of a pity that Miss Yue and Mr. Tai didn't choose to stay, but even so, we shouldn't waste what Miss Yue had prepared for us."

"Brother Xu is right. Anyway, with Sir Tai with her, that man wouldn't be able to do anything against her. He might even lose his life if he had pushed through just now," Fu Guren said with a serious face.

He felt a suffocating aura coming from Shen Jueyang just now. It is clear that he would have killed Sui Lengya on the spot if Yue Xuexia hadn't stopped him just now. No one else noticed, and his wife was far weaker than he is, but he had definitely felt it. The cultivation of the man beside Yue Xuexia is something he himself couldn't comprehend.

Hu Yiran laughed as if she heard a joke and said, "Come on, Fu-ge. There is no way he would kill someone in the middle of a party like this."

"Those you stood at the peak would never care about those below them. Unless they deem that someone important, all else is an ant in their eyes," Fu Guren said with a serious demeanor, making the three with him on the same table that he wasn't kidding with his words at all. This only means, in Fu Guren's eyes, that Shen Jueyang is that type of man. Silence spread in their table leaving all confusion, disbelief and questions unanswered.

In the Presidential Suite reserved for Yue Xuexia...

Shen Jueyang looks at the lady in his arms with a slight, teasing smile. He knew that after signing a contract with this girl, her ailments had been resolved. This includes her former delicate body, weak heart, and lungs, as well as her unhealthy state that made her stay at home for so long. Yue Xuexia just pretended to get sick so she could get away from that party.

"We're back in your room. No need to keep pretending, Xue'er," Shen Jueyang said as he gently put her down.

As expected, Yue Xuexie returned to normal after returning to her room. She felt tired because of the nonsense of Sui Lengya all night, which made her a hot topic for gossip. She walked towards the sofa and fell tiredly.

"This kind of party is the most tiring. Not only do you have to compare with your appearance, they would also ask about your job and current standing, then dig up the past that should have been forgotten for the longest time," Yue Xuexia complains.

Sigh~

Shen Jueyang asked, "Do you want to go home to rest properly?"

"It's too late. They might wake up. I'll go home tomorrow. Yangyang, let's go back to sleep. You can return to your original form," Yue Xuexia said as she walked groggily back to her room. "Good night, Yangyang."

"Good night, Xue'er," Shen Jueyang said as he watched her enter her bedroom and disappear from her sight. As soon as Yue Xuexia entered the room, the real Yangyang materialized, not too far from Shen Jueyang.

[Main body, I saw you enjoying the food. Was it delicious?]

Shen Jueyang's approachable aura faded, and he glanced at his soul fragment with cold eyes. "Enough nonsense. I need to go somewhere. Protect her until I return." He jumps out of the room's veranda and disappears within the night.

Yangyang, who was left behind with guard duties, murmured, [Hmp! You ate the food that was for me. Now I'm hungry, but I can still order some room service.]

He turned to his teenager-looking human form and went to the hotline in the room to call for room service. He ordered enough for him to be full. A whole table of food was served in Yue Xuexia's Presidential Suite. When Yue Xuexia came out to drink water, he saw Yangyang eating normal human food in the dining area.

Yue Xuexia, who was wearing a black bunny onesie, said to Yangyang, "A few trays of food wasn't enough for you. You still want to eat!"

Nom. Nom. Nom.

"I haven't even started yet," Yangyang retorted with rolling eyes.

Pfft!

Cackling with laughter, Yue Xuexia got a glass of water and left the glutton to eat his fill. "Okay, eat well. I'm going to sleep now. This weekend, come with me to Korea. I need to attend a wedding that time."

"Sure, goodnight," Yangyang said.

Yue Xuexia, who was about to return to her room, suddenly stopped, which Yangyang noticed.

"Is something wrong, Xue'er?" Yangyang asked.

Burp~

Yue Xuexia smiled when she heard him burp shamelessly, "Nothing. Just don't forget to ask people to clean up after you eat."

"I will go to sleep."

Conversely, Shen Jueyang materialized on the hotel's roof after having just left the Crowned Regent Hotel. He dispersed his divine consciousness throughout the entire city, spanning numerous kilometers and encompassing the entire main city. At last, he discovered the one he was seeking. It was Sui Lengya, who was frantically making his way back to his own house after borrowing a friend's vehicle.

The city's roads are not entirely deserted, even though it is almost midnight, although fewer automobiles are on them than in the morning. Right now, Sui Lengya and an even smaller vehicle are traveling on a woodland road. He uses this as a shortcut to get home.

He discovered that Cui Ruru had really left the hotel and seized the car when he went to check into the room that had been reserved for him and his spouse. When he requested Xu Xingju to let him use his car, the man said yes. Like the other students, Xu Xingju had high hopes for the complimentary three-day stay at the Crowned Regent Hotel.

While driving, Sui Lengya was mumbling, "She must be at home. She must!"

All of a sudden, a figure appeared right on the road in front of the car, and he directly crashed into it. Unexpected to the scene of the one where the person that was hit by the car flying due to the impact, it was the car that ended up being wrecked. The impact was as if Sui Lengya had directly hit an electric post, making the car bounce back while he hit his head on the car steering wheel in front of him before the inflatable emergency airbags.

Surprisingly, Sui Lengya experienced vertigo instead of losing consciousness. With his blurry vision, he made out the figure he had just struck—a man dressed in a traditional robe. The figure had a majestic appearance akin to that of an ancient monarch due to the color combination of crimson and gold. But Sui Lengya was astounded to see the person's face as he approached him. It is the dashing visage of the man who he hates the most.

"J-Jueyang!?"

The mortal in front of Shen Jueyang gave him a harsh glance, but he disregarded it. He forced Sui Lengya to gaze into his eyes by reaching out a hand and grabbing his hair. His crimson eyes were tinted golden just now. Sui Lengya was afraid because he thought these pairs of eyes were monstrous.

"W-W-What the hell are you!?" Sui Lengya shouted regardless of the pain.

Shen Jueyang stared coldly at the mortal and ignored his queries. He then said, "Someone like you should never appear in front of Xue'er ever again. That's why I'm going to take away all of your memories of her."

"N-NO! Argh!" Sui Lengya shouted in pain as his memories were forcibly extracted by the godly man in front of him.
