Transcending the Nine Heavens

ot only handsome, but young and confident too….if she doesn’t agree, wouldn’t that be completely beyond ridiculous?”

“Is that true?” Gu Du Xing lifted his head in delight.

“Yes it is.
Just be brave and confess to the girl you love, Du Xing.
Sister Xiao Miao is happy for you.” Gu Miao Ling’s countenance was now a deathly pale as she tottered weakly, “You will succeed.
Sister Xiao Miao will be here wholeheartedly praying for your blessings.”

Forget it, forget it.
When I return, I shall just die in this of old age in this Prisoner cave.

In this lifetime, I shall never dream again.
I no longer have anything to dream about……

Gu Miao Ling silently slanted her face away as two pearl of tears quietly rolled down.
She resisted bursting into tears to vent her emotions as she issued a bitter and astringent smile, “Du Xing, girls are always reserved.
Even if they like you, they wouldn’t communicate it so easily.
If you like someone, then you must take the initiative to confess your feelings……once you miss the opportunity, you will be left with nothing…….the most beautiful time of a human’s life is only those few fleeting years…….You cannot regret, you must never ever regret…….go fight for yourself! Hurry up and go, you will definitely succeed!”

While she spoke, her heart was a field of anguish and despair.

If not for my timidness in the past, if I had not suppressed the matters of my heart, if I did everything in a different manner………if I had told you earlier, would this outcome have been different?

If I tell him now, maybe he…….

Haai, what’s the use of thinking about that……he is about to be married and I’m imprisoned inside this Prisoner Cave for all eternity……my whole life is finished, why should I let him despair about my fate?

This secret, let me just bury it in my heart…….

“Sister Xiao Miao…..thank you for agreeing.” Gu Du Xing excitedly replied, “I……I’m just so happy……I……I’m about to faint from joy……”

“I agreed to you? Wh…..what?” Gu Miao Ling was still coming to terms with her grieve, she could still feel the pain of her heart bleeding.
Yet suddenly in the face of such random words, her mind could not adapt momentarily.

“You just said yes to me!” Gu Du Xing leaned in as he exclaimed loudly, “You clearly just said yes to me!”

“What did I say yes to?” The blank Gu Miao Ling asked.

“You said yes to being my wife!” Gu Du Xing’s face was flushed with excitement as he leapt up with a joyous somersault.
His tone was now yelling, “You just agreed, agreed to being my wife!”

In a split second, Gu Miao Ling was dumbstruck as her pretty eyes gazed widely at Gu Du Xing.
She stammered in confusion, “You, you…….you, didn’t you……you, don’t you have a lady you love……you…..ah?!”

“That’s true! I do indeed have a lady I love!” Gu Du Xing chirped happily, “But that lady whom I love is you, Sister Xiao Miao……could it be someone else? Where would I find someone else?” Gu Du Xing gazed at Gu Miao Ling bewilderedly, not comprehending why Sister Xiao Miao was speaking in this manner.

Could it be that I, Gu Du Xing, would fall for someone else in this lifetime?

What a joke!

“You, you…..I…I…..” The flabbergasted Gu Miao Ling gazed at him for a good long while without speaking a word.
Suddenly in this moment, two streams of hot tears came pouring out of her eyes.

Immediately, she squatted down and begun to sob loudly.
Her wails were so intense it traveled far and wide.
Regardless of that, Gu Miao Ling poured her heart out in tears as her tears dripped over her garments, bitterness and warmth intertwined within her heart as she no longer bothered about her own demeanor.
Her warm tears slowly evaporating into thin white mist in this freezing environment…….

Her tears represented the abundant pain she had experienced, the manifold effort she invested.
It was as though the floodgates sealing up her thousand grievances she had was opened, as her despairs dissolved along with her wails.
Yet, in this moment, her wails rapidly transformed into amplified desperation and dismal, sorrow once again piercing her heart.

She had finally attained the desire she craved even in her dreams…….this gift of affection! These words were her endless nights of fantasies, the only comfort she could find solace in to live on, her greatest pillar of strength!

Everything time she visioned this scenario, Gu Miao Ling would no longer feel cold and discomfort.
Only love filled that place in her heart.

However right now, she gravely abhorred herself; Why must I have this! I shouldn’t have! I shouldn’t!

A second ago she was pitying herself in resentment, but intense regret soon overwhelmed her.

Such was the contradiction of a woman’s heart.

She was unresigned that the person she loved dearly for years would jump into another’s embrace.
If that had really happened, Gu Miao Ling would’ve simply lost meaning in life.

But now after receiving, she regretted dearly.

My punishment in this Prisoners cave lasts for all eternity! If Gu Du Xing obstinately chooses to love me…….then, wouldn’t this taint him forever?

He is still young! He doesn’t deserve to be lonely for all his life!

(TN: Du Xing (孤独) name means lonely in chinese)

“No! No!” Gu Miao Ling subbed as she shook her head wildly, her voice completely choked with emotions, “Sister Xiao Miao’s future is finished, I cannot return…….little brother you still have a boundless future ahead of you, why stumble yourself because of me? This is absolutely impossible!”

Chapter 304 – Sister Xiao Miao, be my wife!

Dedition: Three things:

Sorry I haven’t been able to post any teaser chapters, I’ll start again by hopefully later this week or next week.

I know some of you don’t like the title being hidden regardless of it being a spoiler or not, but you lose so much more feeling once the title is able to be seen.
Even if the conclusion of the chapter may be obvious, you have to admit, if you saw the title, it’d go from being a high possibility to a definite.
Just trying to retain some of the magic of reading.

Most of you picked A last chapter, meaning all of you will now be receiving chapters Monday-Friday with an empty weekend.
C was close, but not close enough, so apologies to anyone who would’ve preferred it to be on the weekend.
Someone suggested I should’ve done a strawpoll; I’ll do it again in a month or so and see if the readers have changed their minds.
Just think of it as a confirmation vote.
