Chapter 715: Have You Betrayed Me Before?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

So, he had indeed been here before.

Pei Huai glanced at the time on his watch.

“We’ve known each other for a long time,” he said in a narrative tone as he slowly sipped the tea.

“Definitely longer than you imagined.” Bian Tong raised his teacup.

“So, what happened in the past?” Pei Huai asked him.

“Which life?”

There were too many things stored in his mind. Sometimes, even he was confused. There was no guarantee that he could remember everything in every life.

However, everything related to Pei Huai was stored in the most important part in his mind.

“Which…life?”

Bian Tong nodded. “Every time you discover my secret, you will come to my place to drink tea. You are very smart, so you’ve been here several times.” For atheists, this information still needed some time to digest.

Pei Huai raised his eyebrows. The teacup knocked lightly on the stone table, making a light sound. “Then tell me, what did I do in each life?”

Bian Tong thought about it seriously. “Then it depends on how you define that. It can be understood as a person’s occupation, a person’s interest, or perhaps, a person’s lifelong obsession.”

Pei Huai’s slender fingers pressed against his temples. He was not very interested in some of the options. “Pick a simple one.”

“Simple?” Bian Tong nodded slightly. “Your obsession then.”

“I can summarize it in one sentence because you’ve been looking for Miss Su in every life…

He looked up at Pei Huai.

Pei Huai also looked at him at this moment.

He mentioned something that interested him. “Then…has this obsession of mine ever been realized before?”

Bian Tong poured him a new cup of tea. “No.”

“You’ve been looking for Miss Su in every life, but the Miss Su you found in those lives was not the one you wanted…”

These words sounded rather vague at first, but they were actually very clear. Pei Huai understood.

Some people loved her appearance.

Pei Huai only looked at Su Ji’s heart and nothing else.

The Miss Su in the previous lives was just like the real Su Ji in this life. She looked exactly like Su Ji. Bian Tong tried to arrange for Pei Huai to meet that

girl. He did not want to see him come and go alone in every life.

However, Pei Huai had no feelings for the girl who only had her appearance.

Hearing Bian Tong say “no”, Pei Huai’s face darkened slightly. After a few seconds of silence, he spoke again, “so, this is the first time I’ve gotten what I wanted?”

“Um…” For some reason, Bian Tong didn’t immediately agree to his words. Instead, he started to stutter.

As if he was deliberately changing the topic, he took out a box from his sleeve, placed it on the stone table, and pushed it in front of Pei Huai.

“Oh right, this is the stone you asked me to bid for.”

Pei Huai did not open it to inspect the goods. He trusted him very much and only teased him with a forced smile. “You put my things in your sleeves like this?”

“Sorry, I’m used to it.” Bian Tong smiled awkwardly.

It was a habit formed thousands of years ago.

At this moment, he still had a bunch of house keys in his sleeve, a rolled-up passport, a used plane ticket, and 236 yuan in cash!

Pei Huai pressed his hand on the box and pushed it back to him. “Help her make another bracelet, just like the previous one.”

Bian Tong looked at the box, and a few seconds later, he looked up at him. “Miss Su’s jade bracelet was really broken?”

Pei Huai remembered that when he mentioned this to him on the phone, he had the same attitude. “What’s so special about that bracelet?” Bian Tong:

Like the previous question, he could not answer immediately.

The first time Bian Tong met Su Ji in this life was in court. It was Ning Lihua’s court case. When he saw the jade bracelet on Su Ji’s hand, he thought that he would finally get what he wanted in this life, but in the end…

Thus, when Pei Huai confirmed with him just now that this was the first time he could get what he wanted in this life, Bian Tong did not say yes or no.

The reason for his hesitation was not because this was not the first time, but because he was afraid that even in this life…

His evasive manner was really suspicious. Pei Huai put his index finger and middle finger together and tapped the stone table in front of him.

Bian Tong came back to his senses. “What’s wrong?”

Pei Huai narrowed his eyes slightly. “What did you do wrong to make you feel so guilty? Could it be that you betrayed me in the past?”

Bian Tong raised three fingers. “Absolutely not! You are my savior. No matter how many thousands of years have passed, I will never betray you!” Alright, it sounded like there was another story behind this.

Pei Huai said, “then why are you like this?”

A thin layer of sweat appeared on Bian Tong’s forehead. “You should have heard of the saying, “heaven’s secrets cannot be divulged…”

However, in every life, after Pei Huai recognized him, he would always think of ways to get information out of him. This really worried him.

Pei Huai was a person who was best at attacking the heart. Every time Bian Tong sat beside him at this stone table, it was as if he was being tortured. The moment he let down his guard, it was easy for him to reveal something.

The backlash of revealing the secrets of heaven was very serious. Although his life was saved by Pei Huai thousands of years ago, in order to protect his Pei Huai forever, he had to stay alive!

Bian Tong suddenly put his hand on Pei Huai’s hand and started to enlighten him. “Some things are really fated. What should happen will happen sooner or later. Even if we know in advance, it’s useless. If we can’t do it in this life, we still have the next life. No matter what, we’ve already made great progress in this life!”

Pei Huai stiffened for a moment and quickly pulled his hand away in disgust.

How could he hold Su Ji’s hand after Bian Tong had held it?

Time was tight today, so Pei Huai did not get to the bottom of it.

He had to go back and wash his hands as soon as possible.

“You’re leaving so soon?” Bian Tong asked, knowing the answer.

Pei Huai glanced at him disdainfully. ‘You still have plans to go abroad in the near future?”

Bian Tong smiled casually. “I have to complete the new task that you gave me, to make a jade bracelet for Miss Su. I definitely won’t go abroad before that.

Don’t worry.”

Pei Huai nodded slightly.

Then there would be plenty of time in the future.

As he was leaving, he looked at the time again. Then, he stopped at the door.

He had spent at least fifteen minutes in Bian Tong’s courtyard.

However, the time indicated by his watch was actually the same as the time he had confirmed when he arrived here…it was exactly the same.

In other words, his watch did not move in this courtyard.

He strode over the threshold and walked out of the courtyard. He saw pedestrians and small merchants setting up stalls.

He lowered his gaze to look at his watch.. The second hand had started to move…
