Chapter 134 Born in the Year of the Dog?
"Ugh...she's so infuriating..."
That's not the main issue right now. She's worried that if this spiritual clone returns to her original body, the personality she's developed will probably be erased.
"This is really bad..." Gu Xing became more and more depressed and angry the more he thought about it.
She slid down her collar and frowned as she looked at the talisman on her collarbone.
"Try it!" Lone Star channeled his spiritual energy to cover it, then pulled off the ring from his neck and tossed it carelessly onto the bed.
After doing all this, she pushed open the window of the room, jumped out, and went to a bar.
She sat at the bar and said to the bartender, "One of each of the drinks you can mix!"
After saying that, she rested her chin on her hand and remained silent. The wine was brought over, and she drank one glass after another, her frustration dissipating considerably.
Young Payne knew immediately when Lone Star temporarily shielded the spell.
He entered the room and saw only a ring lying alone on the bed. "Don't think you can escape my grasp like this," he said, clutching the ring tightly, his face cold.
More and more people entered the bar, and many men were immediately drawn to the girl in a red dress sitting at the bar.
Some sharp-eyed people noticed the headband she was wearing and realized she was a ninja. This made many people hesitate to come and disturb her, as the ninja identity was only useful to ordinary people.
Now that many ninjas from various countries have arrived in the Land of Iron, quite a few have come to the bar to relax. Soon, someone couldn't resist and came up to her, "Beautiful lady, would you like me to have a drink with you?"
As he spoke, the man reached out to put his hand on Lone Star's shoulder.
Before they even touched him, he was sent flying backward.
"Bang..." A loud noise echoed throughout the bar. The man was firmly embedded in the wall, and his teammates, who had come with him, spent a long time trying to pry him out.
Lone Star glanced at the wine with a somewhat dazed look in his eyes, then ignored it and picked up the wine in front of him to continue drinking.
Her hand was suddenly grabbed, and she glared at him angrily, "Let...go..."
Seeing that the person in front of him did not react, Gu Xing simply switched to his other hand, and before he could even touch the wine glass, he was picked up and carried away from the bar.
"I'm telling you, if you keep doing this, I'll disappear right now," she said in a muffled voice, her face flushed.
Upon hearing this, young Payne involuntarily tightened his grip. He knew he was in the wrong this time, and he truly couldn't bring himself to let her leave.
"You're hurting me." The person in his arms frowned and spoke. Upon hearing this, the young Payne regained his senses and quickly loosened his grip.
Looking at Lonely Star, who had fallen asleep on the bed, he said, "It would be so nice if you could always be this obedient." He gently stroked her face, his eyes filled with possessiveness.
Lone Star suddenly sat up and gagged, but nothing came out.
She quickly noticed the person by the bed. "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
"And how come you look so much like the person I hate?"
"But you do seem to be a tiny bit more handsome..."
"belch..."
She hiccuped, slumped back onto the bed, and then sat up a moment later, her eyes glazed as she looked at the person beside her. "Since...you look so much like him, then...I'll use you...to get revenge on...him..."
She stumbled out of bed, cupped the person's face in her hands, and bit down on it.
Young Payne was prepared to be beaten up, but he never expected this kind of retaliation.
If it wasn't him who took her away from the bar, the thought instantly ignited his anger. He grabbed her, lowered his head, and kissed her.
Lone Star was momentarily overwhelmed, but Payne wasn't about to let her off so easily. Besides, she had offered herself up herself, and he had originally planned to keep his distance from her.
When Lone Star woke up the next day, he rubbed his aching head and thought about what had happened the night before.
"It seems like he just brought me back, and then... then..."
She tried hard to recall, but found she had no recollection of it at all. She figured he must have fallen asleep, but she didn't believe that young Payne would be so kind.
Gu Xing lifted the blanket and saw that his clothes were intact. His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed. However, the necklace around his neck was back.
After this experience, she knew that besides the talisman placed on her body, there must have been other things done to her body, otherwise how could they have found her?
This made her realize that until she reached the Golden Core stage, she could only temporarily abandon the idea of leaving the Akatsuki organization, and as for what happened yesterday, she could just consider it as being bitten by a dog.
She still gritted her teeth when she thought about it.
Just then, young Payne, carrying breakfast, pushed open the door and walked in. "Eat."
Hearing the noise, she regained her good mood and hummed in agreement, showing no trace of the gritted teeth she had just been gritting her teeth.
Young Payne glanced at her with some surprise. "Is she trying to mislead him so she can escape again?"
"What's with that look? It makes me feel like I'm about to run away again."
"But I'm afraid you'll be disappointed this time. Even if you try to force me to leave Akatsuki, I won't go."
"Also, thank you for bringing me back last night."
As Lone Star ate her breakfast, she spoke calmly, but the more she acted this way, the less trusting young Payne found her. Finally, he instructed her, "No more drinking."
Thinking of the kiss she gave him when she was drunk last night, his throat involuntarily bobbed.
"This has nothing to do with you. Don't think you can tell me what to do just because you brought me home last night."
Young Payne immediately realized that she had no recollection of what happened the following night.
He felt a mix of relief and disappointment. According to her, she would definitely go drinking again, and he couldn't be by her side every moment.
Thinking of this, his eyes filled with coldness.
"I think it's necessary for you to recall what happened last night!"
"What do you mean by that..." Lone Star was only halfway through his sentence when the young Payne grabbed his chin and leaned down to kiss him.
After a while, he released Lone Star. "Do you remember now?"
"I...I...I..." Lone Star couldn't bring himself to say it. "How can anyone believe that she actually kissed him last night..."
The more she thought about it, the more unbelievable it seemed. She didn't like this guy either. "Okay, maybe I like him a tiny bit at most..."
"But..."
Lone Star pouted. "It must be the memories you gave me. I don't believe it."
“That must be it.” She pointed at Payne, her face clearly showing disbelief.
"Then let's try to recall it again..."
"Don't...go too far..."
"Okay... I believe you... I believe you... You can let go now..."
Young Payne ignored him, while Lone Star, exasperated, yelled, "Are you a dog... chewing on it so... addictedly..."
