Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 801 Past and Present
Nan Surou couldn't help staring at Xiahou Lingche's words, she stared at Xiahou Lingche.

The tall white shadow stood steadily.

The frigid night wind seemed to rush into the courtyard covered by the smell of hot springs, making Nan Surou feel a different kind of cold again.

Nan Surou stopped for a moment, and then murmured: "Oh~ how did I forget, you are a person who can clearly distinguish between likes and dislikes, and you will never be sloppy or indecisive in doing things. You never do superfluous things. Purposeful."

Nan Surou doesn't intend to beat around the bush anymore.

She stared at Xiahou Lingche's half-smile face, and said, "Whether it's appearance, dress, temperament, every part of your body is designed according to my preferences, can I ask why?"

"..." Xiahou Lingche said with a low smile, "Why don't you believe that maybe this is my true face, and you like someone like me?"

"It's useless to talk too much nonsense. Now that you're here, I believe you won't let other people disturb you. It's just you and me. It's different from the situation in Sleepy Hollow that day. What else can't you say?" Nan Surou didn't hide her impatience at all, "Everything has a cause and effect. Now that you have been reincarnated, the old things repeat themselves. Are you really going to explain your purpose?"

Xiahou Lingche laughed again, this smile was still so calm and breezy, even though Nan Surou claimed to know his bad nature very well, she couldn't help being confused by such a clear smile.

Nan Surou secretly scolded the evildoer in her heart.

Only Xiahou Lingche said: "Let's talk in the pavilion, I'll make tea for you..."

Nan Surou looked at the place Xiahou Lingche was pointing at. It was the place where she used to sit quietly, the pavilion with the back of the study.

Nan Surou didn't object and walked over.

The furnishings in the pavilion are the same as before, and the charcoal fire on the stove is steaming.

Nan Surou unceremoniously sat down on the side seat, which was the guest's seat, since Xiahou Lingche said that he wanted to make tea, let him be the main seat.

Nan Surou stared at Xiahou Lingche's profile, and said, "Now, can you explain to me?"

Xiahou Lingche didn't look at her, just stared at the things in his hands, made tea very carefully, and said lightly: "It's a long story to explain, let me start with the most basic things, hey, how many times have you been reborn?" back?"

Nan Surou frowned, what does this question mean?
Nan Surou said without hesitation: "One time, just this time, thanks to your gift of rebirth, don't you ask knowingly?"

Xiahou Lingche answered the conversation almost instantly. "Rebirth, how do you feel? Stepping on a new round of life, how do you feel?"

For some reason, when such a question came from Xiahou Lingche's mouth, Nan Surou always felt that he was asking "how do you feel when you are on a dead end".

"...feeling..." Nan Surou didn't expect that such a question seemed to overwhelm her. In her previous life, she only had family glory and other people's approval in her heart, and she always had a goal to pursue. Whether you do good deeds or do evil deeds, you will always feel happy in your heart.

Nan Surou recalled that in her previous life, except that she finally knew that she was used and murdered by her relatives, and then died of hatred, she had a very comfortable life in her previous life. Although that life was short, it was very comfortable.

On the other hand, in this life, because she sees everyone's faces clearly, and even habitually analyzes other people's shortcomings, no one is attractive to her, including what Huo Mingzhu called "the dragon among men". Such a life without pursuit It is very boring, even if she takes every step of the way, she can't find the goal of survival.

In the beginning, she took measures because of her weakness, but now she is no longer afraid of Yunai and Qu Lanyi, but she feels that the future is bleak.

She knows the personalities and prospects of all the people around her very well;
How things and territories change around her, she knows all too well;

Whether it's people or things, she doesn't have that kind of unknown expectation at all;
It's like being bored with the world after knowing what's going to happen in the future?

"Can't you answer?" Seeing that she had been silent for a long time, Xiahou Lingche spoke again.

"To tell you the truth, although I was short-lived in my previous life, I was happier. In this life, seeing those people is annoying... especially I don't want to see you." Nan Surou glanced at Xiahou Lingche with disgust.

"I'm sorry." Xiahou Lingche apologized sincerely.

Hearing these three words floating out of such a mouth, Nan Surou was slightly surprised, as if she hadn't expected him to be like this at all.

Xiahou Lingche's expression remained unchanged, and he said, "You never thought I would apologize to you so easily, did you? To be honest, I tried every means to let you carry the memories of your previous life in this life. There is indeed a purpose. For my purpose, let You have experienced a rebirth that you shouldn't have experienced, and I am indeed selfish, so I sincerely apologize to you."

Nan Surou frowned, "Well, I just want to know if I don't accept your apology, will the result change?"

"It won't change, you know me quite well." Xiahou Lingche said calmly.

"Then this apology is tantamount to saying nothing." Nan Surou frowned deeper, "Go on, I asked your purpose, but you changed the topic to my feeling after rebirth, and I haven't touched the point yet. .”

"No, what I'm talking about is the main point. You just reborn once, and you already feel bad, and I have been reborn hundreds of times, and this is the 180th time." Xiahou Lingche said lightly, pouring the soaked The tea was poured into the cup in front of Nan Surou.

180th time?Isn't Xiahou Lingche's mental age over a thousand years old?

Nan Surou's heart skipped a beat, "What did you say?"

"For me, this is an infinitely vast and narrow world that is also closed." Xia Hou Lingche lowered his eyes and said: "An infinite world without end, this eternal world is like a wheel that keeps turning. In a word, I am in the maze of fate. The same things keep reincarnating, which makes me gradually feel tired and bored. If this situation continues, every reincarnation, there will be all kinds of Xiahou Lingche. Life and ending, I have lost interest in this reincarnation, but I can't stop it."

"Let me keep the memory of my previous life, will it be useful for you to end this reincarnation?" Nan Surou finally heard some clues.

"No, this is my mother's curse on me. This reincarnation cannot be stopped, not even by you. Naturally, there are other reasons for you to keep your memory." Xiahou Lingche shook his head.

Hearing the unexpected answer, Nan Surou frowned. "Your mother? I remember in Sleepy Hollow, you once said that you and Xingxiu were half-brothers..."
