Exclusive Memory novel Chapter 71

'Oh my God! Boss, you can't do it'. Ashley was freaked out by him, "That's God, how can you undress him?"

"It's no big deal. They are lifeless."

"You are too profane! You Anyway, you can't take off his clothes! "

Seeing that she persisted, Jasper had no choice, "my coat is too thin. It's easy to catch a cold in sleep."

"I'd rather have a cold!"

"Well, ok." Jasper completely gave up.

Seeing that Jasper had finally given up the idea, she let out a sigh of relief. She stood in front of the statue, her eyes closed and her hands folded as she muttered, "I don't know who you are, God or Buddha. We've offended you a lot just now. Please forgive us. It's a stormy night. I'm so sorry that we have offended you by sleeping in your temple. "

Looking at the woman standing in front of the statue, Jasper was amused. But then he thought the woman's look was really devout and beautiful.

He sat beside the fire and added more sticks to the fire, "You go to sleep and I'll watch the fire."

Sitting on the floor where the jacket was laid, Ashley asked, "Are you worried about the difference between men and women?"

Jasper stared at the sky, wordless, "Do you think I'm such kind of man?"

She smiled awkwardly, "not really."

"Someone must watch the fire. Or it will break down when a gust of wind blows on us when we fall asleep. He explained.

"You can put out the fire."

Jasper shook his head, "it's cold in the mountain, and it's raining and blowing. We don't have thick clothes around me. If We don't light up the fire to warm yourself, we'll catch a cold in the middle of the night."

"Then you go to sleep. I'm here to watch the wire. You have a lot of work to do in office. I have nothing to do."

"How come you have nothing to do? You have to attend the interview the day after tomorrow." Jasper's voice became a bit strict. What's more, do you think I'll leave a woman watch the fire while I'm sleeping soundly?"

Ashley chuckled awkwardly again We can rest in turns. "

"No one will sleep well in that case."

"……"

Seeing that Ashley finally didn't ask any more questions, Jasper took one of the two shoulder pillows and lay it under her buttocks, "go to sleep quickly. Spread both of your coats under it. It's cold on the ground."

She didn't say another word such as 'put on your coat lest you catch a cold'. As the boss ordered, she put the two coats under her body and looked inside with the pillow made with her backpack, "I'll sleep then. Good night."

"Okay. Good night."

In a small temple in the mountains, there was a God. The left side of the God was filled with dried wood. On the right of the God, a woman lay on her side on the ground, and a man sat in front of the woman, holding a bonfire in a random way. From time to time, he added some firewood into the fire.

The man's profile was in warm light. The wind and the wind blew his black hair occasionally. But he didn't notice it. His eyes were fixed on the sleeping woman.

Ashley couldn't sleep well, and she heard the sound of thunder and lightning. She felt like a ship floating on the waves, but there was no one to rely on, which was going to be turned over at any time. Seeing that she could not sleep well, Jasper reached out his hand and patted the woman's back. Unexpectedly, she seemed to have found a life-saving straw. She turned around and grabbed his hand. He then quickly approached the woman.

In case Jasper had to stretch out his leg to prevent her from falling onto the fire. At last, Ashley got into his arms and held his waist. She finally fell asleep.

The next morning, Ashley woke up with sore all over her body. When she opened her eyes, she found that Jasper was not beside her, only ashes left at the gate of the temple.

It was sunny and the birds were chirping. Water dripped from nowhere and the clear sound of birds echoed in the quiet mountain forest. Sunlight penetrated through thick trunks and slanted over, making this place an immortal like place, given the haze of darkness and sunlight.

"Jasper?" Ashley shouted.

There was no answer.

Ashley stood up and walked out, but she didn't dare to go far because she was afraid that when Jasper came back, he couldn't find her. She looked around and found that it was a temporarily high platform formed by a debris flow. The side of the platform was a rock, and the temple were cut in the rock. The platform was not far from them and it was a steep cliff deep. Fortunately, Ashley and Jasper were so lucky yesterday. Otherwise, they would fall down from the platform as long as they kept going.

"You woke up. I was just looking for a way."

Ashley turned around and saw the man in dust walking slowly down the slope, grasping the bare root of a tree.

"How's it going?"

"Go up the slope, and we can go back to the original route after a few steps."

She looked in the direction he pointed. But as the steep slope blocked her sight, she saw nothing but piles of trees and misty mountain haze.

"Then let's pack up and set off."

The two men put their coats and trash into their backpacks and began to clean up the unfinished wood and ashes of the bonfire. The man stood outside the temple, while she stood in front of the statue with her hands folded. She bent and bowed again. "We've been bothering you a lot last night."

The morning sunlight and mist surrounded the woman. They stood quietly, as if they were in a temple, isolated from the time.
