Chapter 12 - A new start. For three consecutive days, Wu Qiqiong stayed at Jiang Xiaoshuai's place for counseling, until his head had fully recovered. Master Jiang was very mindful of his disciple. He tried his utmost best to guide him out from the trauma in his heart. He made him stop contacting Yue Yue, give up the hopeless notion and accept the fact that they'd broken up officially.
While Jiang Xiaoshuai attend to other patients, he kept a close eye on Wu Qiqiong.
Wu Qiqiong picked up his phone again.
Jiang Xiaoshuai immediately glowered at him and said word by word, "Put- Down- !"
"I didn't contact her." Wu Qiqiong explained. "I just wanted to play game. I've just downloaded a version of Zuma for the colour blind."
Only then did Jiang Xiaoshuai turned his head back.
The phone rang while Wu Qiqiong was in the middle of a game.
"Oh monkey! Monkey! You're so awesome. The five finger mountain didn't suppress you, you're reborn as Monkey God! Oh monkey! Monkey! You're so precious! The spell of golden hoop didn't change the test of your almighty......"
Wu Qiqiong couldn't believe his eyes and dared not pick up the phone. This was the first time that Yue Yue called him after their break up.
"Why are you not answering your phone?" Asked Jiang Xiaoshuai.
Wu Qiqiong's eyes looked stupefied. "It's from Yue Yue."
"Are you a man? If you're one then answer the phone! Say whatever you need to say!"
Wu Qiqiong pressed the answer button as Yue Yue's hearty voice came over.
"Are you fully recovered? If yes let's meet up."
So Wu Qiqiong was not the only compulsive one, the other party was not sane too.
Wu Qiqiong glanced over at Jiang Xiaoshuai, asking for his opinion.
Jiang Xiaoshuai merely stated. "Up to you!"
Once again Wu Qiqiong hurried off to the battlefield.
This time round, Yue Yue didn't specially select their venue and neglected all the inspection process. She felt that man can no longer stop Wu Qiqiong anymore. Regardless of the time or location, Wu Qiqiong would always be able to make a piece of brick appear.
Yue Yue was a little excited. She had long been standing here waiting. Her eyes were constantly scrutinising the surrounding.
Wu Qiqiong appeared to be more carefree as he strolled towards the meeting place.
"What's up?" Asked Wu Qiqiong.
Yue Yue stated with a loud and clear voice. "Break up!"
Under the aid of deep breathing counseling for self hypnosis, Wu Qiqiong had finally overcame the trauma. Just break up if you want. I heck care.
Not sure if Yue Yue's mind went bonkers. She grabbed onto Wu Qiqiong's arm. Her eyes were overwhelmed with anticipation.
Wu Qiqiong didn't know what she was waiting for.
Seeing no further actions from Wu Qiqiong, Yue Yue started hitting his chest out of impatience.
"Time for the bricks! Hurry up."
The muscle on Wu Qiqiong's face twitched a little. "What...... what bricks?"
"Make bricks appear! Just like what you've done before. Make one appear out of nowhere!" She covered her face in joy, as if recalling something interesting.
Wu Qiqiong's heart was as if being trampled by a stampede of wild horses!! The hooves of the horses trampled his heart and organs into minced meat!! The happy ending in that novel didn't appear. It was already worse enough when the girl wasn't moved by the protagonist's perseverance. Why did she become addicted to watching it now?
This is my head! It's made of muscle and blood. And you had once kissed it before!
Wu Qiqiong's heart shattered to pieces. He laughed at himself.
Seven years. A total of seven years. All I've got was being called a magician!
Yue Yue started stamping her feet in impatience. "Hurry up! I'm waiting. Don't let me down!"
There were two trees opposite of where Wu Qiqiong was standing. In between them laid several bricks. He walked directly to them and picked up a piece. He walked back to Yue Yue.
Yue Yue was totally disappointed. Her eyes couldn't contain a sense of annoyance. As if she had just been deceived.
"I want to make one appear, why did you pick one from there?"
Wu Qiqiong made a tsk tsk sound with his tongue. "Why make it appear? There's one right here. If you think it's not enough, I can take more. I'll let you have a bloody eyeful of it!"
This was the first time she had seen Wu Qiqiong loose himself, Yue Yue was a little dazed. She even forgot to snap back. Her eyes were staring intensely at the piece of brick in Wu Qiqiong's hand. As if her wish was unfulfilled.
Wu Qiqiong knew she was waiting for him to smash it.
From the extreme discomfort at the beginning to the encouragement right now; From feeling petrified at the beginning to anticipation right now; From threatening in the beginning to exuberance right now...... Yet to her, the blood shed on his forehead had also turned from a shocking trauma to the colour in her life.
It was time for an unforgettable epilogue.
Wu Qiqiong closed his eyes and smashed it hard against his forehead. Not a slight string of sensation felt; Again, not much feelings as well. Wu Qiqiong muster all his strength and gave it one last smack.
The brick broke to pieces!
Yue Yue, "......"
A glaring ray of light shone on Wu Qiqiong's body. Adding glamours to his figure.
"Yue Yue, we're officially over."
With that, Wu Qiqiong laughed into the air. At the instant when he turned to leave, a blood filled tear choked his breath.
From this day onward, honesty, kindness, cowardice, incompetence, chuwozi...... All these have nothing to do with me. Whoever dare to provoke me, I'll bloody hammer you with my iron head to death!
Jiang Xiaoshuai sat in the clinic until it'd turned dark outside. Then he stood by the door waiting as more and more people passed by his clinic. In the end there was still no sight of Wu Qiqiong. Jiang Xiaoshuai sighed. All the effort these days had gone to vain. That idiot fell back to square one.
Just when he was about to head back inside, he was held back by a sturdy hand.
He turned around, crooked his head and saw a familiar yet different face. Wu Qiqiong's face was emitting excessive coldness. Jiang Xiaoshuai felt his face was as if being scraped by blades when Wu Qiqiong's sight fell on him. Although Wu Qiqiong was smiling like usual, there was an overpowering sense of suffocation in that smile. Making his skin tighten and having goosebumps.
"You......" Jiang Xiaoshuai was bewildered.
Wu Qiqiong lightly grinned. "I've changed my name."
Jiang Xiaoshuai had a bad feeling about this. "What did you change it to?"
"Wu Suowei*."
Jiang Xiaoshuai, "......"
T/N
*Wu Suowei - means whatever, doesn't matter. The name changing process is a change of his state of mind.
