Chapter 161 A Heart Flutter
Slightly tipsy bar —
In the office, Jiang Chenyan leaned back on the soft sofa, his gaze tenderly fixed on the last message on his phone screen.
It shows that it was sent more than ten minutes ago.
A note to warm your heart: [I'll be looking for you at the Slightly Tipsy Bar later~]
A simple sentence stirred up a great deal of emotions in his chest, and his usually calm mind could not find peace for a long time.
He hadn't seen her for months, and heaven knows how intense his longing for her was.
My heart pounded; I couldn't wait even a moment longer...
He swiped his long finger up, scrolling through his old chat history.
A month ago, after Tong Guang woke up, she saw various messages sent to her by the Wu brothers, Aunt Qiu Ting, and A Yu.
They were all concerned about her situation.
Jiang Chenyan, in particular, sends messages every single day without fail.
[Tongguang, how are you?]
His few words contained his boundless care and his inexpressible emotions.
He eagerly awaited the moment when the other party would reply to him.
[Jiang Chenyan, I'm fine, thank you so much!]
To stop the other person from worrying any further, she took another selfie and sent it to them.
The girl probably can never imagine the moment that warm and gentle man received her message in that faraway place.
How difficult it is to control one's emotions!
His usually gentle and calm eyes welled up with tears, and his upright figure trembled uncontrollably.
"Brother, is that Tong Guang? She's back?"
Jiang and Qiao had never seen him so emotional. Apart from that girl, who else could make him so emotionally turbulent in an instant?
"She's...she's better!"
Yes, now that she's better, everything is fine.
He gazed at the girl on the screen with deep affection and longing.
Her smiling eyes curved into crescents, and her pink eyes shimmered like a pool of stars, clear and bright.
My fingertips lightly touched the girl's cheek on the screen, as if I could feel her presence that way.
There was a knock on the office door, and Jiang Chenyan snapped out of his reverie. He tried to calm his agitated emotions.
He quickly got up and put his phone away.
The door opened, and that little face, which he had imagined countless times, came into view without warning.
"Hi~ Jiang Chenyan, long time no see." A sweet voice suddenly rang out!
The girl smiled brightly, her pink eyes sparkling, and waved her small hand gently.
In that instant, time seemed to freeze.
His breath hitched, and he stood there, slightly stunned.
His already turbulent heart surged with even greater waves, crashing wildly against his chest.
Ripples flowed through the eyes behind the lenses, gentle and affectionate.
He couldn't help but raise his hand and gently stroke the girl's cheek.
The soft, warm touch beneath his fingertips felt so real, like the finest silk thread winding its way into the deepest recesses of his heart.
The curtain rolls up, revealing a pool of tender, lingering affection...
From the moment I first learned that she had been cursed until this moment when I actually touched her.
Only then did that anxious and uneasy heart finally relax completely.
With a slight parting of his thin lips, a thousand words rolled and swirled on the tip of his tongue, ultimately turning into nothingness.
"You came……"
"Yes, won't you let me in and have a seat?"
Tong Guang chuckled and tilted his head to ask.
Jiang Chenyan suddenly came to his senses, realized his actions, lowered his eyes slightly, and quickly withdrew his hand.
A slight smile curved her lips. "I'm sorry! I lost my composure."
Tong Guang didn't mind, casually sat on the sofa, and unceremoniously took the snacks on the table and started eating.
Jiang Chenyan's gaze remained fixed on the girl, who, as before, always focused her attention on the food first.
He always looked forward to when she would arrive, so he would prepare all sorts of snacks in advance, wanting to see her happy and content expression.
Swallow the grape-infused sparkling water in your mouth!
Tong Guang turned to look at the other person and bit his lip. "Jiang Chenyan, I came here today to ask you for a favor."
Upon hearing this, he raised his hand and gently touched his glasses, the gold-rimmed glasses reflecting a ray of light as he did so.
He hadn't expected the girl to ask him for help, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"What do you want me to do?"
He really wanted to say that he would do anything, no matter what.
"My demon core has been sealed by a binding spell, and my demonic power is blocked. I would like to ask you to help me remove this binding spell."
Jiang Chenyan frowned slightly. The Spirit Dispersing Technique was so vicious because it dispersed the cultivator's cultivation and could not be forcibly stopped by external forces.
How could she still have demonic power if she was under the spell of the Spirit Scattering Curse?
Suddenly, as if remembering something, he slightly twitched the corner of his lips.
With that person present, it's not impossible for her to preserve her demonic power.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chenyan was even more confused. Since he was able to preserve Tong Guang's demonic power, why didn't he lift the restraints after Tong Guang woke up?
Or is there another problem?
Jiang Chenyan's mind raced with conflicting thoughts, but he dared not easily break the binding spell, fearing that his recklessness might harm the girl's body! He was unwilling to do so even in the slightest.
My gaze fell on the man's worried brows!
Tong Guang quickly explained, "I sealed it myself with the binding technique. You just need to follow the steps I told you to do. Um... this is a long story, and I can't explain it in a short time..."
In fact, Tong Guang didn't know who wanted to harm her.
She didn't seem to have offended anyone, could it be... Ke Qing?
But how could a mortal like her possibly see that she was a demon?
Did she cast the binding spell herself?
Jiang Chenyan's doubts deepened, and he became increasingly confused about the intricate mystery involved.
When her gaze fell upon the other person, there were perhaps many things that even she herself did not know.
Since she was the one who cast the binding spell, I have nothing to worry about.
I'll just stop dwelling on the things I can't understand! Anyway, it's good that she's alright.
On the sofa, Tong Guang sat cross-legged, while Jiang Chenyan's fingertips gathered brilliant golden spiritual power.
Following her instructions, I channeled spiritual energy into several acupoints on her back.
The final step is also the most important one.
Tong Guang stretched out his body, lay flat on the sofa, and said calmly, "Alright, let's begin! Just do as I said before."
Jiang Chenyan focused his attention, and golden light swirled in his palm as he slowly placed it over the girl's dantian.
As my palm made contact with it...
He carefully controlled his spiritual power, guiding it little by little into the other person's body. He closed his eyes and used his spiritual power to sense everything.
At the dantian, a golden ring tightly binds the pink demon core that is suspended in the air.
Now all he had to do was break the seal. The moment his spiritual energy touched the golden ring, a shockwave erupted, creating ripples of golden light.
Resisting external forces.
The gentle spiritual power suddenly became strong, and this time, just as it tried to resist, it was suppressed by the even stronger spiritual power.
Jiang Chenyan carefully controlled his power, disintegrating the golden ring with a domineering yet gentle approach.
Fearing he might cause the girl any harm, he didn't rush things, but instead slowly and effectively dismantled the golden ring bit by bit.
About an hour later, the golden ring sealed on the demon core dissipated into nothingness under the erosion of spiritual power.
As the binding spell was lifted, the pink demon core suddenly began to spin, and pink demonic power surged and flowed through all the meridians of its body.
A familiar feeling filled his entire body, and Tong Guang couldn't help but let out a soft moan.
It was a more abundant and surging demonic power than before.
Eighty percent! She had recovered eighty percent of her demonic power! He was filled with astonishment.
Her pretty face showed disbelief.
Before she successfully cast the binding spell, she had already dissipated most of her demonic power.
I thought I was lucky to retain 30% of my demonic power, but I didn't expect that I not only retained 50% of my original demonic power, but also recovered an additional 30%.
Tong Guang also knew that even if she redeemed all of her current Pure Love Points, it would be impossible to restore 30% of her demon power.
Could it be because of the changes in her relationship with Si Hanye during this period that the system gave her extra points?
Unable to figure it out for a moment, she simply put these questions out of her mind.
Anyway, the higher her demonic power recovers, the better! This means she has many more ways to survive in this world.
She no longer worries about points. From the moment she confessed her feelings to Si Hanye, she decided to stay in this world for a hundred years.
Although the quality of spiritual energy in this world cannot compare with that of our clan, it is not bad either.
If she cultivates diligently over these hundred years, she might be able to recover her original cultivation level.
Tong Guang jumped excitedly off the sofa, "Jiang Chenyan, we really owe you a lot, honestly!"
With the pink halo in her eyes subdued and her demonic power restored, she seemed to radiate a dazzling light.
In particular, the pure aura surrounding him is intoxicating.
"Hey~ how about we go to Guyuan Street? Let's invite Ayu and the others. I'll treat you to dinner tonight, okay? We agreed on that last time."
Her sweet voice was pleasant to hear, and all I could see was her bright and radiant smile.
A tender, doting look spread across his eyes behind the glasses.
Jiang Chenyan parted his thin lips slightly, concealing a gentle smile.
"Okay!"
