What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

Su Yan is an exception, because their relationship is special enough.

Now that they have witnessed such a private matter, it is more than enough for Gu Yuqiu to take action and kill someone.

"You go."

Gu Yuqiu didn't look, and casually said, "Go outside and maintain order first, so that no one disturbs my conversation with her."

The old director turned around and left without saying a word.

Given his status, even a simple "hmm" would be the best evidence of his subservience, so he could only remain silent.

However, the other powerful individuals had no concerns about this and naturally nodded in agreement before leaving with utmost respect.

It was quiet.

The long street was deserted.

Su Yan didn't sit down. She looked at Gu Yuqiu's profile from a short distance away and asked in a complicated tone, "Why you?"

"Aren't you used to it?"

Gu Yuqiu's voice carried a hint of laughter and was very cheerful.

"Ah."

Su Yan was quiet for a while, then said, "I had almost forgotten about you, but you just had to remind me again... It's really annoying."

Gu Yuqiu turned her head and looked at her, saying, "Is it because I'm not pretty enough now, and you've gotten used to me as I am now?"

Su Yan readily agreed with a simple "hmm," without the slightest hesitation.

She has always been such an honest person.

However, she did say one more thing.

"But I still prefer you the way you are now."

Gu Yuqiu was slightly taken aback, then laughed happily and looked at her, asking, "Is it because the current me is the one you remember?"

This sentence sounds a bit convoluted, but Su Yan understands it perfectly.

No matter how beautiful, unique, or unforgettable her cascading silver hair may be, it is a sight to behold.

But I still prefer the you with your short, messy hair, stained with blood, walking out of the wind and snow.

Because you belonged to me back then.

……

……

The two remained silent for a long time.

Gu Yuqiu walked into the shop, tied on her apron, and carefully made herself a cup of coffee.

Then, she picked up the tray and the coffee, knelt down slightly in front of Su Yan, and said very gently, "Don't be angry, try my cooking."

Su Yan ignored it and looked at the scenery outside the parasol.

The sky appeared as if it had been washed by rain, clear as a mirror.

A shrine atop a tall building happened to welcome returning birds, which landed on the torii gate and bowed their heads to feed.

A gentle breeze blows, passing through tall buildings, carrying the warmth of sunshine, as if returning to late spring, making one want to sleep.

The sun shines brightly, the wind whispers, and birds sing.

Everything looked nothing like winter.

She knew she would remember this day for a very long time to come.

"This is our last conversation, isn't it?"

Su Yan asked.

Gu Yuqiu looked into her eyes and said seriously, "I hope it's not true, but maybe it really is. This road isn't as easy as I thought, and I might really never be able to come back."

Su Yan smiled, a smile tinged with self-mockery and melancholy, and said nothing more.

Since things have come to this, why say more?

Learning to accept is enough.

But... even though she knew all along that today would eventually come, and it was just a matter of time, her emotions were still fluctuating.

She thought she could accept it calmly.

"Maybe you don't want to say anything more to me, but I have something I want to tell you."

Gu Yuqiu smiled and looked very happy, saying, "When I became a god just now, I saw many scenes from the past, no different from what happened before... except that I wasn't there."

Su Yan looked at her quietly.

"Then, I discovered something."

Gu Yuqiu suppressed her smile and said, word by word, "Of all my past experiences, you occupy the most memories."

Su Yan bit her lower lip, her eyelids lowered, and she remained silent.

"Thank you."

Gu Yuqiu walked up to her, hugged her tightly, and said, "Goodbye."

Su Yan turned her head away and said in a slightly cold voice, "Don't say goodbye to me."

As she spoke, she broke free from Gu Yuqiu's embrace, raised the cup of coffee, and slowly drank it.

Gu Yuqiu looked at her, remained silent for a moment, then turned and left.

Su Yan didn't look back even once.

As she sipped her coffee, she gradually tasted the saltiness amidst the fragrant bitterness.

Sometime long afterward.

She then realized that it was the taste of tears.

……

……

A rooftop of a tall building.

Standing at the edge, Shen Muchan watched the distant fog wall collapse with a roar, and the buildings behind it remained intact. She knew that a new god had been added to the world.

She disappeared from everyone's sight, but she did not truly leave Japan, because she believed that the man would surely become a god again.

At that time, they will have a formal farewell.

It fell with the wind.

A deep red voice followed.

"I have never liked you. I have only ever set you as my goal. So you don't need to say those things to me, and don't have any illusions."

The short girl slowly turned to face behind her, her eyes calm and arrogant, just like her tone of voice.

"You don't need to like it."

Gu Yuqiu calmly said, "If everyone in this world liked me and was willing to give everything for me, that would be the most boring thing ever."

Crimson raised an eyebrow slightly, snorted coldly, and said, "Can't you be a little more humble?"

"Someone like me shouldn't be so humble..."

Gu Yuqiu asked curiously, "Isn't that a bit too sarcastic?"

Crimson thought about it and realized that it was indeed true. She couldn't help but feel a little exasperated and said with slight annoyance, "Anyway, I won't let you make me angry."

Gu Yuqiu found it somewhat amusing, raised her hand and rubbed her face, saying, "Really?"

Crimson got angry and slapped her hand away, saying angrily, "Show me some respect and don't mess around. I'm not one of those idiots!"

"Isn't this just being angry?"

Gu Yuqiu said with a pleasant expression.

Crimson stared into her eyes and said nothing.

The two fell silent.

Time always seems to fly by inexplicably; in the blink of an eye, the sun has already set.

A warm atmosphere pervaded the world.

Sunrise and sunset seem to have become almost indistinguishable.

"Goodbye."

After a moment of silence, Shen Hong walked up to Gu Yuqiu, hugged her gently, and said, "You must come back, otherwise I will have no goal to strive for."

Gu Yuqiu didn't know what to say. After thinking for a long time, she finally said, "Definitely."

……

……

As the scorching sun sets, the destination seems to be the end of a highway filled with traffic.

Gu Yuqiu walked along the street like an ordinary person.

At this moment, she is no longer as perfect as before, and naturally, she can no longer attract as much attention.

Unfortunately, a very beautiful long-haired white cat happened to be perched on her shoulder.

If it weren't for the white cat's fierce expression and the aura that kept strangers at bay, many people would have surrounded her, preventing her from leaving.

Just as passersby could see, Songtang was indeed in a bad mood.

Its reasons for being bad are vulgar, not much different from Su Yan's.

Perhaps for this reason, it guessed that what it wanted to say had already been said by someone else, and repeating it would only make it seem boring, so it was unwilling to speak.

The atmosphere was naturally strange.

Gu Yuqiu stopped and looked up at the endless stream of cars and the setting sun at the end of the road, and said a sentence.

"Like a tree by a pond, its shadow falls on the water and looks like it's one with the water, but in fact it will never be together."
