"Why the dry laughter?"
Shen Yan's tone was exactly like Feng Qishi's, which made Mu Anxiao feel a sense of déjà vu.
"Who are you?" she asked.
Shen Yan: "Who I am, you should be able to tell."
"You..." Mu Anxiao frowned, tilting her head to meet Shen Yan's eyes, and her mind suddenly went blank. "You are really quite alike."
"Who?"
"Your future self."
"He is me, and I am him. Wouldn't it be strange if we weren't alike?" Shen Yan accepted his future self in reincarnation.
Conversely, Mu Anxiao said, "Gu An and I are very different."
"You are very similar to her."
"Very similar?" Mu Anxiao thought of everything she had seen in that memory, and let out a cold laugh, "Similar to what? She's just a lovesick fool, but I am a celestial being striving for my goals."
Shen Yan: "She said the same thing back then, although she spoke like a demon."
"What? No, she didn't," Mu Anxiao didn't remember Gu An saying that, so she didn't believe it was true.
"When I first met her, she was just like you. Honestly, during the time I spent with her, I found..." Shen Yan smiled faintly, "She was simply a lunatic."
"Lunatic? I'm not a lunatic."
"To be precise, she was both foolish and crazy," Shen Yan said calmly.
Mu Anxiao: "..." She couldn't help but recall the names Feng Qishi often called her. Clenching her fists, she said, "How can you two talk like that? What do you mean foolish and crazy? You're the crazy ones, you're the foolish ones." She had forgotten she was still asleep.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yan quickly reached out to cover Mu Anxiao's mouth and said, "Keep your voice down. If your younger self wakes up, it will be over." As he spoke, he lowered his eyes to meet Mu Anxiao's.
Mu Anxiao looked at Shen Yan, inadvertently recalling moments spent with Feng Qishi. Then, she thought about what Shen Yan had just said. She let out a muffled sound and pointed at the hand Shen Yan had placed over her mouth.
At the sound, Shen Yan withdrew his gaze from little Mu Anxiao and removed his hand.
Mu Anxiao said softly, "If I don't accept my future self, you... he will be killed by the soul sword." She glanced down at the soul sword.
"Yes," Shen Yan nodded, "But I don't want to die, because..." His gaze flickered away.
"Because of what?"
"Nothing, I just don't want you to feel... guilty."
Hearing Shen Yan's words, Mu Anxiao's eyes widened. Then, she thought of the words Feng Qishi often used, asking for forgiveness. She asked, "You knew I would kill you?"
Shen Yan: "..." He averted his gaze and handed the soul sword to Mu Anxiao. "Here."
Mu Anxiao could tell Shen Yan was hiding something, but she also knew that Shen Yan was a man of few words. If she pressed him, he wouldn't say anything.
Therefore, she saw it through to the end, took the soul sword, and asked, "As long as I accept my future self, you... he will be alright." She didn't want anything to happen to Feng Qishi.
"Yes."
"How do you know..."
"There are many things that cannot be explained clearly."
"..." Mu Anxiao's heart sank. She realized these were indeed things that couldn't be explained clearly, so she stopped asking.
Seeing Mu Anxiao's silence, Shen Yan said again, "Just remember, I haven't changed."
"..." Mu Anxiao nodded. Looking at Shen Yan's serious expression, she began to gradually accept Feng Qishi, because... they were too alike.
"Rest," Shen Yan said, and turned to walk away.
Mu Anxiao watched Shen Yan's retreating figure, her heart sinking, and sat down.
In the early morning, Mu Anxiao forgot to remain invisible. The moment she opened her eyes, she met little Mu Anxiao's gaze. Startled, she quickly stood up.
Little Mu Anxiao, who was squatting on the ground, looked up at Mu Anxiao, who had been startled by her. "Human trafficker, why are you here?"
Mu Anxiao: "..." Fearing that little Mu Anxiao might notice something, she dared not speak.
Seeing Mu Anxiao's silence, little Mu Anxiao stood up. "I'm talking to you. Did you go mute overnight!"
Mu Anxiao cleared her throat. "He and I are together." She pointed at Shen Yan, who had just walked into the woodshed.
Shen Yan: "If you're together, then please transform into her." He pointed at the maid who was still lying unconscious on the ground.
Mu Anxiao was taken aback. "Aren't you going to transform?"
"It's inconvenient for me, a grown man."
Indeed, one's nature is hard to change. The past Shen Yan was like this, always delegating everything to Mu Anxiao. Now, it was happening again.
This made Mu Anxiao feel as if it were a nightmare.
"..." She glared at Shen Yan.
Shen Yan said coldly, "Junior Sister, hurry up. If people arrive soon, it will be difficult to handle things."
Junior Sister?
Hearing Shen Yan's address, Mu Anxiao twitched her lips, then looked down at little Mu Anxiao, who was staring at her with shining eyes. "Why are you looking at me?"
"I'm watching you transform."
"I'm a human trafficker."
"There are good human traffickers too," little Mu Anxiao chuckled. "Transform, I'll watch." She took two steps back.
This feeling of being commanded by herself was truly strange!
However, to avoid wasting time, she had no choice but to listen to herself this time.
In the next moment.
Mu Anxiao transformed into the maid's appearance.
Shen Yan: "Your magic is good."
"Not bad," Mu Anxiao said with feigned modesty. She looked down at her attire, then at the unconscious maid on the ground. "What about her?"
"Carry her away."
"What? You want me to carry her... No way!"
"Yes, do you expect me to carry her?" Shen Yan frowned. "Don't you understand the principle of not touching the opposite sex?"
It was the same old routine. For the six months she had followed Shen Yan, he had tormented her like this. Back then, it was under Shen Yan's orders that she carried the young lady of the Xiuxian Sect. It was also from that point that their lives changed drastically.
Thinking about it, she suddenly felt displeased!
But... she didn't dare to defy Shen Yan in front of little Mu Anxiao. There was no choice... she had to accept reality. As she bent down to grab the maid's arm, Shen Yan said, "Change her clothes. If people in the manor see her like this, how will you explain?"
"How do I change them?" Mu Anxiao asked Shen Yan with impatience.
Shen Yan: "You handle it yourself, or use magic."
"Magic," Mu Anxiao had always been stingy. Now, Shen Yan was so extravagantly ordering her to use magic to change the maid's clothes. Hearing this, she felt even more displeased. "You transform."
"You..."
"You are my Senior Brother. If my magic is not enough, I can use yours," Mu Anxiao interrupted. She just wanted to prove that she was no longer the Mu Anxiao who was summoned and dismissed by Shen Yan.
Shen Yan: "Junior Sister, I am training you. If time is wasted and you get into trouble, I..." he said coldly, "will not be responsible."
