Chapter 757 - 631: Do You Know Me?
The surroundings gradually quieted down, even the strange cries above the cliff seemed to slowly abate, leaving only the sound of two breaths, light and heavy, not disturbing each other.
Shen Tang couldn’t fall asleep.
She lay on a somewhat thin mat, feeling the sharp stones clearly beneath her. Before long, she slightly opened her eyes and sneaked a glance at the Black Panther not far away, which seemed to be asleep.
It was a face familiar enough to make her heart palpitate, yet completely different from her memories, so unfamiliar, indifferent, even exuding a pathological madness, as if he were a different person from before.
Her heart felt tightly grasped by a hand, a sourness spreading, a hint of loss flashing through her eyes.
Could it be that Xiao Jin had amnesia?
So he doesn’t remember her?
Shen Tang didn’t know what Xiao Jin had experienced after they separated, if he really had amnesia... it didn’t matter! Fortunately, she had met him again, so they could get to know each other again, fall in love once more.
Shen Tang recalled the item rewarded by the System earlier, the [Past Reappearance Crystal], which could store past memories within it.
She and he had so many sweet and happy memories, which she remembered clearly.
She could store these memories in the crystal.
There was still a long time ahead, she could slowly tell him about it.
Just thinking this, the bits and pieces from before flashed through Shen Tang’s mind, the process of knowing each other, understanding, and falling in love with Xiao Jin, so happy and yet so sorrowful.
In the past, he was always passionate and sincere, like a fire that could ignite her; now, it’s her turn to ignite him!
The abyss was really too cold.
This cold was not simply low temperature, but an intangible, eerie chill, like countless deathly airs congealed, blowing over her body and drilling directly into her soul. Even with a barrier condensed from spiritual power covering her body, Shen Tang still felt that chill from the inside out.
After not long, she was shivering slightly, her breath turning into a pale fog in the air.
In times like these, there was always someone who would rush over first thing, hugging her tightly into his arms, using his warm, fiery body to comfort her comfortably.
Unfortunately, now, she couldn’t wait for that person.
Shen Tang collected her emotions, slowly moving her body, inching closer to the Black Panther.
The Black Panther emanated a scorching heat all over, like a living furnace, even the surrounding air seemed to heat up by a few degrees.
The closer she got to him, the warmer she felt.
So comfortable.
So nostalgic...
The Black Panther’s senses were extremely sharp; the slightest movement woke him up. He didn’t see those ugly mutant species, but saw the delicate, pitiable little female inching closer to him unknowingly.
The Black Panther’s body instantly tensed, instinctively wanting to push her away.
But the little female only nestled lightly against him, just touching a small area; her soft, white fingers loosely wrapped around his tail, rubbing it nostalgically. Her voice was as soft as a cloud, gently murmuring, "Ah Jin, so warm..."
Jin’s movement to shake her off came to an abrupt halt.
Like ripples on the water suddenly calming down.
Regarding this nearly offensive gesture, Jin didn’t know why, he didn’t push her away again.
Maybe, this frail little female was too weak in Jin’s eyes, too weak to even pose a possible threat, so he couldn’t be bothered to care.
Or perhaps, as their bodies gently touched, Jin could feel so clearly that the female’s body was so soft, like fluffy clouds.
The faint scent at the tip of his nose seemed stronger, unexpectedly disturbing his thoughts for a moment, making him naturally not mind the little female’s audacious act.
Of course, it could also be because...
It was the first time for Jin to be approached by someone.
He didn’t remember those early days after birth; maybe then he was just like an ordinary cub, once held tenderly by parents and relatives... Jin didn’t know, nor did he care now.
Since Jin could remember, everyone looked at him with fear and panic, wanting to escape, even wishing he would disappear. Even his closest kin were like this, their eyes filled with sadness and fear, looking at him like he was a monster, alien and cold.
He had never felt the world’s gentleness and goodwill.
And this little female, despite being so scared and helpless, chose to hold him, as if she had a natural trust and attachment to him.
This feeling made Jin feel strange but also carried a certain... infatuation that he couldn’t explain.
So much so, that he couldn’t bring himself to shake her off, reluctant to push away this precious and rare warmth.
