The honest person is you

-33-

Although you have made up your mind to marry Xia Youjie, in fact, you have never even been to his house, and you have never met his family, maybe they don't even know you exist, and Xia Youjie... Xia You Jie doesn't even know your name.

"You know," you looked at him seriously, "you already knew."

Facing your incomparably firm tone, Xia Youjie began to doubt himself. He thought maybe you had really told him, but he couldn't remember it.

In your cognition, this is indeed the case, as early as 1000 years ago, you exchanged each other's names.So you don’t think he really doesn’t know, nor does he forget, he just can’t remember it temporarily, but one day he will be able to remember it—you can see his future from the hexagram.

Your name, and your past.

You close your eyes slightly, those past events are still floating in your memory: "As long as you call my name..."

You will do anything for him as long as he calls your name.You are willing to lend him your strength, and you are willing to share your life with him.

The root cause of him becoming like this is time, but the method that reminds him of everything is also time.But because he hasn't remembered your name yet, he doesn't know how to introduce you to his family.

But you don't care, you never need the approval and blessing of those people (his "family").All you want is him.

You think of the promise he made to you in the past, to pick the first cherry blossoms from the Kamo Shrine for you, but he failed to survive that winter and left you before the cherry blossoms were in full bloom.So you and Xia Youjie made an agreement that you will go to Kamo Shrine to hold your wedding when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom.

The members of the Kamo family and the Superintendent Department of the Curse World are helpless with your decision, so they can only start with Xia Youjie, but too obvious methods may anger you, and in the end they appointed Xia Youjie by name There are more and more tasks on him.

Xia Youjie got busy at a speed visible to the naked eye, almost spinning around, without any time to rest.

As the days go by and the winter snow is wailing, Xia Youjie rushes back to see you on a snowy day. His black hair is covered with fine white snow. You use your fingers to help him comb out those fine snowflakes. The palm was lightly pressed against his cheek.

You feel pity for Xia Youjie, who is full of tasks, and you ask him if he feels tired: "Actually, it's okay to take a break, right?"

Xia Youjie smiled and held your hand, he kissed the back of your hand and told you it was okay.You know that he is also working hard for you. If you really "stand out" for him, it will put more pressure on him.

You know that he doesn't want to rely on you, use your strength, even though he knows you can do many things - but he doesn't want to "use" you.You have told that person everything about yourself without reservation, but he still looks at you with tender eyes, and he knows that you can share for him, because you quickly adapt to everything here (outside), but he does not I don't want to rely on you to realize my wishes.

He wants to look at you as an equal, instead of looking up to you and looking up to you like "celestial beings" or other disciples of the master.

He was like this in the past, and so is his reincarnation now.

The more Xia Youjie gets to know you, the more Xia Youjie can feel the gap between you. Your situation is completely different from what he originally thought. You are not a "weak person" who needs anyone to protect you.

The members of the Kamo family are in awe of you, they kneel down in front of you respectfully, and offer everything for you.The upper echelons of the magic world are afraid of you, they only dare to figure out your intentions in the dark, and treat you like walking on eggshells.

You have to work harder, Xia Youjie thought, he must continue, continue, and continue to work hard until one day he can touch the high position you are standing on...

But innate talents are not shared equally among everyone.Although Wujo Wu always said to Xia Youjie, "We are the strongest", Xia Youjie actually knew very well that there was a gap between him and Wujo Wu.

Gojo Satoru was born with the "six eyes", and he also mastered the "reversal technique" last year, and now Gojo Satoru is still practicing the family-inherited "no lower limit technique".The gap between them is gradually extending, it is getting farther and farther away, and it is impossible to chase.

Xia Youjie tried his best to smile in front of you. He held your hand and hugged your body, but a sense of illusion always enveloped him like a thick fog.

Maybe it's because he can't "remember" your name, or maybe it's because you inadvertently said the phrase "you sometimes make me feel not like you", all these things gradually shake Xia Youjie's heart.

You are always saying that he knows, so Xia Youjie has been recalling, he digs out the memories that may be hidden in the depths of his mind or in his heart, but no matter what he thinks, he can only think of the memory at Tokyo High School. Before Zhuan's "first encounter", there was no trace of you in his life.

Hesitation, fluctuations, doubts... Some thoughts kept floating in Xia Youjie's heart. Xia Youjie began to think, do you really love him?Is he really the one you want?

When you stare at him very intently, Xia Youjie often feels a sense of self-doubt. He tells himself that you are in love, but your eyes are so far away that he feels that you are looking at other people through him. someone.

Maybe he should ask you directly, but Xia Youjie has long been used to patience, the taste of curse spirits, inner turmoil, self-doubt... If it is not because he is a magician, then there must be a curse born because of him .But if it wasn't because he was a magician, then he wouldn't have these negative emotions.

While constantly delving into his own memory for you, all the things that happened in the past also resurfaced before his eyes.In front of Gojo Satoru, he expounded his own thesis that "conjurers exist to protect non-magicians". Riko Tenuchi told him that he had made the final decision, and Fuheshier broke into the palace of Xingxing. Killed Riko Tenuchi, saying that Gojo Satoru had also been killed by him...

Xia Youjie only felt that his internal organs were heavy, as if someone had stuffed countless ice cubes and stones into his stomach.

He opened his eyes in the middle of the night, and you were still lying in his arms, the wind and snow outside the window, and the surroundings were pitch black.He lowered his head and kissed your forehead, and your soft arms clung to his neck.Body temperature and breath intertwined, Xia Youjie smelled the faint fragrance of flowers - it was a deceptive fragrance.

He suddenly felt very relieved.

At least you're real, at least... you're still telling him you love him.

……

……

The snow that has been falling all winter has finally stopped.Xia Youjie's birthday is in February, the day before the Beginning of Spring, and that day he specially asked for leave to spend it with you. You didn't stay at Kamo's house, but went outside together.

Just like the person in the past who brought you into the outside world, now Xia Youjie also takes you to be familiar with countless things of this era.The ice that froze in those lonely times when you felt like your heart stopped beating melted away each day you spent with him.

Xia Youjie bought you a crepe on the way. He said that Wu would come here to buy it whenever he came here.You are wearing a soft scarf and it is not easy to sip, Xia Youjie smiled and re-tied the scarf for you. Before that, he rubbed his fingers to warm up.

You hold the crepe in one hand and hold his hand in the other.You walk hand in hand through the long, melting street, at the end of which is a photo studio.

You had your first photo together in that photo studio.

Xia Youjie said, "Thank you for celebrating my birthday with me."

You asked him if he had any birthday wishes, Xia Youjie showed a thoughtful expression, and after a while, he looked at you with lowered eyebrows: "I hope I can also celebrate your birthday with you."

He wants to know when your birthday is, but you can't remember it anymore, but Xia Youjie is waiting for your answer, you don't want to disappoint him at this time - you casually mentioned an autumn day.

With a gentle smile, Xia Youjie held your hand and said softly, "We will be married by then."

You're genuinely thankful you didn't tell him the word "don't know," even though you were just lying to him with that offhand date, but it's a harmless lie that does no harm.

This is one more day that Xia Youjie was looking forward to.

……

……

Spring is here and your wedding is getting closer.Gojo Satoru came to you once, but you didn't see him. You, who are extremely nervous because of the approaching wedding, don't want to spend any more time dealing with this kind of insignificant person to you.Although Gojo Satoru is Xia Youjie's friend, he is not your friend, just like Ashiya Domitsu had a close relationship with that person in the past, but you have never had a good impression of Ashiya Domitsu.

Gojo Satoru, who couldn't find anyone, could only leave in despair.

A few days later, Tian Yuan also came to Kamo's house to look for you once, you can imagine what Tian Yuan would say to you, although your first meeting was thousands of years ago, Tian Yuan has never left half a point in your heart, which can be called "" "important" memory, so he also failed to see your face.

You didn't intend to invite anyone to your wedding with Xia Youjie - including his parents. Xia Youjie was persuaded by you long ago and agreed to your decision.After the wedding ceremony is held at Kamo Shrine, you have to go to the ward office to register on the same day.

Because he is always tolerant of you, from the past to the present, Xia Youjie has absolutely no disagreement with the arrangements you have made that seem weird to ordinary people.He'll just give you a soft smile and tell you he's got your back no matter what you want.

In this way, in March and April, you received a gift.A branch of cherry blossoms just off the tree, still covered with morning dew, was sent along with it and a waka——

"I love always"

The handmaid didn't understand what it meant, and she didn't know who sent it.But you know that tears can't stop falling from your fair face.

He finally remembered.The agreement between you, the vow he made with you, and the gift he agreed to give you at the end...he (羂索) finally remembered you.
