[Curse Return] How can a sorcerer not be crazy?

Chapter 202: Are you treating me as a substitute?

Seeing Gojo Satoru raise his head and take a big sip of the wine in the glass, Huailiang smiled knowingly: "I thought I would be disappointed. It seems that the rumor that Glass said you don't drink... is not entirely true."

"Aren't bottom lines meant to be broken?"

After drinking half a glass of wine, Gojo Satoru still looked calm, but the red blush on his ears showed his unrest.

Huailiang seemed not to notice that the other person's face was slowly flushed, and the corners of his lips curled up: "So the so-called important thing is the origin of Yuji Itadori, and that Rika Kimoto caught Jie's attention?"

"Jay?"

Gojo Satoru tilted his head, "Are you yelling so intimately just because you're following me?"

"You all probably have some guesses, right?"

Huai Liang was not flustered. "I have been busy recently. I am actually quite curious as to why he acted like he must have me after only meeting me for the first time."

"The Panxing Cult is not a monolithic group. With a little bit of trickery and using money and spell tools to pave the way, we were able to obtain information...that the other party was suffering from nightmares."

After drinking the amber wine in the cup, Huailiang refilled the cup again: "Isn't it a coincidence that Wujun seemed to be trapped in a dream when he was young. After waking up, he kept looking for a girl with a red mole behind her earlobe for a while?"

"Plus, Mr. Wu's warm attitude towards me, even taking the initiative to propose that I become your fiancée, and even willing to help me avoid disaster and deal with those 'wolves and tigers' who coveted me because of the rumors of the 'life-replacing ritual'——"

Huailiang imitated the other person's movements, tilted his head, and reached out to touch the red mole behind his earlobe. "Just because I'm friends with Hui, I shouldn't be able to do this, right?"

"So... is it because you treat me as a substitute?"

Huai Liang is not a stupid person. In fact, if she is not smart, she would not be able to survive the so-called "time travel".

If Geto's abnormal behavior could be explained by the similarities between her and the person he had a crush on when he was young -

Although I heard from Glass that he has never been in a relationship, but that was only when he was in high school. Was it junior high school, or even elementary school?

Didn't you see that when Rika Kimoto was still in elementary school, she gave her deceased mother's ring to Yuta Otsutsukota and made a promise to "get married when they grow up"?

She admitted that she always remembered that in the second round, when she first met Geto Suguru, he seemed to be looking for the shadow of someone in her.

This explanation makes sense. It's impossible that he was so blinded by lust that he fell in love at first sight and spent a lot of money to look for someone in the whole city, right?

This is not in line with the decision-making thinking of those in high positions, not to mention such a high-profile approach, which seems more like insanity.

Or maybe he was deliberately creating a 'weakness' to make the enemy forces relax, so as to cover up another thing he was going to do in private.

Huai Liang is already past the age of the young Mu Ai, not to mention that her growth experience since childhood was like walking on a tightrope at high altitude. One wrong step could result in her being crushed to pieces, so she cannot help but think about it.

And what about Gojo Satoru?

She had experienced his teenage years and knew very well that before he acquired certain abilities, he was almost confined within the numerous barriers and guards of the Gojo Old House.

Even the bloodlines of the Gojo family and the side branches can only look up to him, not to mention those lowly servants.

There is no way he could have any childhood sweetheart.

But the fact that Gojo Satoru had been searching everywhere for the girl with a red mole behind her ear in his early years could not be faked, and he even experienced many ambushes and assassinations for this. Almost everyone in the world of sorcery knew the news.

Huailiang really wanted to think in an optimistic way. Perhaps the people in each timeline would not follow their predetermined fate.

Among the thousands of choices in life, there will always be times when different choices are made, leading to different results.

But the system's words shattered her fantasy. It said that this was the 'most correct' timeline because some of her efforts in the past had affected the changes in the world line.

So, clearly in this timeline, Gojo Satoru's ex-fiancee had already jumped into the sea and died, so how did he get this dream of a girl with a red mole behind her ear?

Faced with such a sharp question, Gojo Satoru did not panic. He thought for two seconds, and then said softly: "If you say there is no reason in this regard, then I am just treating you like a fool."

Huailiang smiled: "Should I thank you for your honesty?"

"Perhaps what I'm going to say next may sound like a sophistry, but I'm willing to tell you all the reasons."

Huailiang tucked the loose hair behind his ears and said with a serious expression, "I'd like to hear the details."

Finally took the bait.

She went through such a long journey, buying wine and wanting to go home - all to facilitate the current negotiations on this matter.

She had a good memory, and of course she remembered that as early as the first week, when she advised Nozomi to drink less, she was told not to worry, as the reversal technique could eliminate the adverse reactions caused by alcohol.

The young Gojo Satoru failed to master this technique, which led to his embarrassing situation of being knocked down by alcohol at a dinner party after entering technical high school.

However, the head of the family, Gojo Satoru, who is now 27 years old, has no such trouble at all.

The reason for beating around the bush was just to make him think that everything was under his control and to eliminate some of his vigilance.

She even used the bait of staying overnight with him to make him think that she had 'other intentions'.

And facing such an issue that has nothing to do with the "great cause" of the magic world, and even has some personal emotional issues, it can eliminate his remaining vigilance.

After all, it sounds like a question that only comes from jealousy, doesn't it?

Gojo Satoru's answer would determine what measures she would take, although she already had the worst premonition -

Perhaps the other party retained some memories of the four years they spent together in the Gojo family, in the form of dreams.

She had asked the system early on, but the answer she got made her want to curse her father.

Things like 'disordered time travel', 'weak control over non-players' original bodies', 'players sign a life-saving contract with the main characters that costs more than their souls'... and so on.

All in all, a series of coincidences led to the current situation.

To be on the safe side, she also asked about Geto Suguru's nightmare at the beginning. Could she be involved in it too?

The answer was no, which made her feel greatly relieved.

"A year before I entered technical secondary school, I dreamed of a girl whose face was blurry. She was my fiancée."

Gojo Satoru seemed to be lost in distant memories. "She and I spent a very happy time together in the Gojo old house. I only know that she had a red mole behind her earlobe."

"When I was young, I searched for her frantically, but in the end I found nothing. After so many years, I thought I had forgotten this past."
