138: Let's go now
He drank for an unknown amount of time, and even Chen Tianming, with his Cultivator physique, felt a bit dizzy. Looking at Wan Yue, her face was already flushed with a deep blush.
She became more talkative, and her clothes had long been torn into disarray by Wan Yue herself, revealing a glimpse of her charms.
“What is this? So... so delicious!”
Picking up the wine glass, Wan Yue chugged it down in one gulp.
“You... why are there several of you? So... so strange.”
Seeing Wan Yue's state, Chen Tianming was a little exasperated. It seemed Wan Yue was drunk, but she didn't appear to have recovered any memories; instead, she became even more adorably foolish.
“This is the effect of alcohol. So, have you remembered anything?”
Chen Tianming hadn't forgotten his original goal. If Wan Yue could remember something, it wouldn't be a waste of so much good wine.
“Wh... what... thing.”
“Aren't you a fragment of the Nine Heavens Goddess? Have you remembered anything about your origins?”
Seeing that Wan Yue showed no sign of remembering anything, Chen Tianming quickly prompted her.
“Besie... besieged, beaten... beaten severely, turned into fragments.”
What Wan Yue said made Chen Tianming suddenly stand up. After trying for so long, this was the first time he had heard about the Nine Heavens Goddess's personality fragments from Wan Yue's mouth.
“What else? Where was it? Who beat her?”
Chen Tianming quickly asked eagerly, but saw a look of confusion on Wan Yue's flushed face.
“You... you... why... so... many heads.”
“Don't interrupt. What you just said is very important. Do you still want to recover your memories?”
Wan Yue's memories weren't actually that important to Chen Tianming; what he cared about were the clues the system had previously hinted at.
The Nine Heavens Goddess's personality fragments clearly didn't originate in the world he was currently in.
Now only Wan Yue could answer his questions. After finally speaking a sentence, she stopped, which made Chen Tianming a little anxious.
“Mem... memories, what... memories.”
Seeing Wan Yue's drunken state, Chen Tianming was at a loss for words.
“Didn't you just say that others besieged her, beat her severely, and she turned into fragments? Tell me more.”
“Wh... what?”
Seeing that Wan Yue couldn't say anything more, Chen Tianming felt a headache. Looking at the swaying Wan Yue, he simply took the wine from her hand.
“Don't drink anymore, go rest first.”
Ignoring Wan Yue's struggles, Chen Tianming simply picked Wan Yue up by the waist and placed her back on the bed.
Returning to the living room and seeing the messy table, Chen Tianming rubbed his temples.
According to what Wan Yue had said earlier, if he hadn't misunderstood, the Nine Heavens Goddess was besieged by others, then severely injured, and for some unknown reason, turned into fragments.
And Wan Yue herself was one of those fragments, but for some unknown reason, she ended up here and was discovered by Chen Tianming. Other than that, there were no other valuable clues.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Tianming still couldn't connect it to anything else. Just as he was about to rest, his phone suddenly rang.
It was a message from Shu Ya.
“I'm off these next few days. Do you have time? How about we meet up?”
Looking at the message on his phone, Chen Tianming hesitated slightly, then slowly typed out some words on his phone.
“No problem, where should we meet?”
“Let's go to Chen Jiang City. I've long heard that the scenery there is beautiful. I've already made a detailed plan, do you want to see it?”
Shu Ya was excited that Chen Tianming agreed so readily, and quickly sent a message on her phone screen.
“Okay, that works. You book the hotel and everything first. The day after tomorrow, I'll take the train there. If you arrive first, pick me up at the train station.”
There were still no clues about Wan Yue's situation, so he could only put it aside for now. Chen Tianming could also take the opportunity to relax in the neighboring Chen Jiang City.
Not to mention, Shu Ya was one of the destined Female Leads, which was the best news for Chen Tianming in a while.
“Okay, I'll go check right away. Do you have any requirements for the hotel?”
“As long as it's not too bad, the rest doesn't matter.”
After sending this message, Chen Tianming no longer paid attention to his phone; instead, he looked out the window. Tomorrow was the banquet hosted by Li Dong, and for Li Qingzhi's sake, he still had to go.
Thinking this, Chen Tianming still made a call to Gao Zhiman.
As soon as the call connected, Gao Zhiman's distinctive voice rang out. “What's up? Are you missing me? I'm still busy. There's a murder case recently that's making the department extremely busy.”
“Yes, of course I miss you, but I called to ask when Sun Yihan is getting out of prison?”
Chen Tianming was going to meet Sun Yihan's online dating partner in person the day after tomorrow. This matter needed to be confirmed first to avoid any unnecessary trouble.
“Wait a moment, I'll have my colleague check for you, and then I'll call you back.”
Hearing that it was important, Gao Zhiman didn't delay and quickly had her colleague help check before calling him back.
“I had my colleague check; it's in three days. Is there a problem?”
Hearing Gao Zhiman's words, Chen Tianming reminded Gao Zhiman to take care of her health a few times before hanging up the phone.
Since it was in three days, there was no problem. Even if Sun Yihan got out of prison and wanted to find Shu Ya, it would be after he and Shu Ya had met in person.
Having completely resolved these matters, Chen Tianming slowly drifted off to sleep...
Early the next morning, Chen Tianming got out of bed. He first went into Wan Yue's room for a look. Wan Yue was sleeping soundly, but due to her drunkenness last night, the room was a bit messy.
Without disturbing Wan Yue, Chen Tianming simply washed up and then headed to his garage.
Meanwhile, at the Li family in Modu, the entire Li family was like a celebration, not only decorated with lanterns and streamers but also completely refreshed inside and out.
Li Dong chose today to make thorough preparations. Chen Tianming was not only his savior but also the hope for the entire Li family's prosperity, and he didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.
On the other hand, Li Qingzhi was in her room at the moment, feeling a bit down.
“Xia Dage, will you come? I miss you so much.”
Li Qingzhi sat on the bed, softly muttering to herself. Although Xia Xuan had made a fool of himself at the Hospital earlier, in Li Qingzhi's eyes, that was nothing at all.
