Chapter 135 The moonlight is so beautiful tonight
Cheng Mai glanced back in the direction General Meng An had left. Shang Xingjian naturally lay down, directly onto Cheng Mai's lap. Cheng Mai looked down at him, "Have you had enough of living?"

Shang Xingjian showed no fear and lay down naturally, saying, "The moonlight is nice tonight."

"That's called 'the moon is beautiful tonight,'" Cheng Mai said disdainfully.

"They all mean the same thing." Shang Xingjian was not particular about details; as long as the meaning was clear, that was enough.

Shang Xingjian seemed to know that Cheng Mai wouldn't really push him away, and continued to enjoy the moon with a clear conscience. "In the past, you never stopped to take a good look at the world and nature. There were always ferocious beasts to catch and endless acts of justice. I don't know where you got so much sense of justice."

Cheng Mai looked at him coldly.

“Xuanji said that there is a Mid-Autumn Festival in the mortal world, and everyone values ​​reunion. He went to great lengths to find some things from the Heavenly Court to hold a reunion banquet. But you, not only did you not attend, you also called him pretentious.”

Cheng Mai: "...Taking advantage of my amnesia, you framed me?"

"So offending Xuanji isn't necessarily my fault." Shang Xingjian grabbed her hand, stopping her from pulling away. "So before Xuanji comes after you, you should think about your own affairs. If you beg me now, maybe I can save your life."

"Thank you, but no need." Cheng Mai couldn't free his hand. "I believe he can distinguish right from wrong in such matters."

If a god is someone who cares about such things, then he certainly cannot become a god.

Cheng Mai firmly believed in this.

"They really are harder to fool now," Shang Xingjian said regretfully.

"So now can you tell me why you absolutely have to find that fish?" Cheng Mai still remembered this incident. "A fish that can evade your search must not be an ordinary fish."

"It's precisely because it's an ordinary fish that I can't find it," Shang Xingjian sighed. "If it really were a carp spirit, that would be much better."

"So what exactly did it steal from you?" Cheng Mai wanted to know more about this. Shang Xingjian didn't answer the question immediately, seemingly lost in memories, but these memories didn't bring happiness. At least in Cheng Mai's view, Shang Xingjian's expression seemed more like self-mockery.

Cheng Mai did not disturb him as he was lost in his memories.

"Things that belong to me, things that others don't want," Shang Xing replied in a slow, deliberate voice.

"Your ex-wife's thing in the human world?" Cheng Mai asked.

Shang Xingjian narrowed his eyes slightly and tightened his grip on her fingers. "Let's look at the moonlight instead."

Is it impossible for him to get over his ex-wife?

"Are you so afraid to face this because you still like him?" Cheng Mai clearly wasn't going to let him off the hook this time.

Shang Xingjian hissed and pulled Cheng Mai back just as Cheng Mai was about to push him away and get up. "Speak, speak, speak, I'll talk."

Cheng Mai snorted, but sat up straight again.

“It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I’ve been waiting for you to tell me about this as well…” Shang Xingjian said, then paused slightly as if he had thought of something. “I still have a lot of doubts about this matter that I need to verify, so it’s not that I can’t let it go, but that I can’t figure it out. But I can assure you that the person is definitely not Qin Mai.”

Cheng Mai squinted at Shang Xingjian, not because she didn't trust him, but because she knew Shang Xingjian had no reason to lie to her about this.

"What about the child?" Cheng Mai asked again. They hadn't discussed this question before, but today, Cheng Mai wanted to talk to him about it.

"Did you really kill that child?" As Cheng Mai asked this question, a sudden, intense pain shot through his chest.
