Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family

Ever since Xing Heng told Cheng Mo about the flood, Cheng Mo has been in a trance and hasn't dealt with anything in the whole day. Seeing him like this, the people around him couldn't help but show their worry.

"City Lord, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell? If you feel unwell, you can go home after get off work." Someone asked with concern.

Cheng Mo came back to her senses as if waking up from a dream, with an awkward smile on her face: "Ah... Oh! Thank you, I'm not feeling unwell, I'm just... um... thinking about something."

One of them frowned and said worriedly, "But I see you've been like this all day. Why don't you put aside the things here and go home to recuperate? We can handle the rest!"

The people around him echoed, "Yes, City Lord, health is the most important thing, work can be put aside for now."

Facing everyone's concern and persuasion, Cheng Mo felt very warm in his heart, but he still shook his head, indicating that he was fine, and forced himself to continue dealing with the work at hand.

After get off work, Cheng Mo was still restless. After saying goodbye to others, he walked home alone, but Xing Heng's words kept echoing in his mind.

"Flood... becoming a god... what's the connection? Water god? Land god? Or... the god of death? No, no, no! I must not become the god of death! How could I bear to watch so many innocent people die! But... I don't have the ability to control water... Could it be that Banmu and I are really..." Cheng Mo muttered to himself.

"Cheng Mo!" At this time, Ban Mu came to pick up Cheng Mo with a large bouquet of colorful flowers in his hand.

"Ban Mu." Cheng Mo raised his head upon hearing the voice and his eyes fell on Ban Mu. He saw Ban Mu walking towards him with big strides with a smile on his face.

Walking closer, Banmu first took the item from Cheng Mo's hand, then handed the carefully prepared bouquet of flowers to Cheng Mo, and said gently: "This is what I picked for you today. I hope you like it."

Cheng Mo took the bouquet and looked at the flowers in his hand. There were still water droplets on the flowers, which showed that they had been carefully handled. He smiled and said softly, "Thank you, Ban Mu, I really like them." As he spoke, Cheng Mo put the bouquet close to his nose, took a deep breath, and reveled in the fragrance of the flowers.

Ban Mu was particularly happy to see that Cheng Mo liked the flowers he gave him so much. The corners of his mouth raised a bigger arc and his eyes sparkled with joy.

Looking at the smile on Cheng Mo's face, Ban Mu was a little absent-minded. He stared at Cheng Mo quietly until Cheng Mo's cheeks gradually turned red. Then he realized his loss of composure and quickly shifted his gaze. He said nonchalantly: "As long as you like it... As long as you are happy, everything I do is worth it."

Cheng Mo lowered his head slightly, his eyes still on the bouquet in his hand. After a moment of silence, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "Ban Mu... If one day, you knew that someone you loved deeply abandoned you after making a vow of eternal love with you, would you choose to forgive him?"

"Hmm?" Banmu looked at Cheng Mo in confusion, wondering why Cheng Mo suddenly asked such a question. But out of respect for Cheng Mo, he thought carefully and gave an answer: "It depends on the situation. If someone I care about abandons me, I will choose to forgive. After all, I know that the person I cherish also cares about me. So he must have been forced to do so. How can I blame him?"

"..." Cheng Mo raised his head silently and stared at Ban Mu. At that moment, he almost thought that Ban Mu had recovered all his memories. However, when his eyes met Ban Mu's confused eyes, he realized that the feeling just now was just an illusion.

As if sensing Cheng Mo's inner uneasiness, Ban Mu patted his chest and assured him solemnly: "Don't worry, I will never abandon you! I will always protect you! I swear in the name of the Beast God!"

Looking at Ban Mu's serious expression, Cheng Mo's eyes gradually became moist. Tears welled up in his eyes, as if they would fall at any time. His lips trembled slightly, and he whispered: "I'm not afraid that you will abandon me... What I'm really worried about is that in the end, we may not be able to..."

However, before he could finish his words, Banmu quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth.

“???” Cheng Mo looked at Ban Mu in confusion.

Banmu coughed and said, "I don't want to hear bad words, please stop talking."

Cheng Mo: "..." How come this guy has become more and more childish after becoming a god? He was clearly a dumb master before! !

After a while, Banmu slowly put down his hand, took a deep breath, then looked into Cheng Mo's eyes and asked softly, "Xiao Mo, I want to call you this, is that okay?" Cheng Mo blinked, tears in his eyes slid down his cheeks. He nodded in agreement.

Banmu's eyes became gentler, he gently wiped the tears from his cheeks and continued: "Xiaomo, I promise you, although I am the Beast God, if one day I have to return to the Heaven Beyond Heaven, I will definitely take you with me. I don't want to, and I won't, let you stay alone in this world. You are a part of my life, I can't live without you. No matter what is waiting for us ahead, I am willing to face it with you."

Cheng Mo felt that his face was as red as a monkey's butt. He said shyly but firmly: "I'm sorry, I did something wrong to you before...but I promise I will never do such a thing again!"

Ban Mu showed a satisfied smile, held Cheng Mo's hand tightly, and said gently: "I forgive you! Then let's go home! I'm ready..." Their figures gradually went away, and in the reflection of the setting sun, they seemed to merge into one.

At night, Ban Mu lay quietly in bed, but his heart was not at peace. He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, his heart full of doubts and uneasiness. After a while, he finally couldn't stand this irritable mood, sat up, turned his head and looked at Cheng Mo who was sleeping next to him. He murmured in a low voice: "So... what did Xiaomo do to offend me? He even cried! Could it be that he has someone else he likes? Impossible..."

At this moment, Cheng Mo was also lying on the bed, secretly complaining in his heart. At this time, he also remembered that he was careless in the afternoon and forgot that Ban Mu had lost his previous memory. He accidentally said something he shouldn't have said. He prayed in his heart: "I hope Ban Mu doesn't think too much!"

After thinking for a moment, Ban Mu raised his hand and gently pushed Cheng Mo's body, and asked softly, "Xiao Mo, are you asleep? Xiao Mo? What did you say you were sorry for this afternoon?"

However, Cheng Mo closed his eyes tightly and pretended to be asleep, as if he had not heard Ban Mu's question at all. He muttered silently in his heart: "I'm asleep! Don't push me!"

The room was silent, with only Banmu's voice echoing in the air. Seeing Cheng Mo didn't respond, he couldn't help but frown, and his doubts grew. He didn't understand why Cheng Mo suddenly said sorry to him, and now refused to tell him the reason. All this made him feel confused and uneasy, and he wanted to know the truth even more.
