Qi Xiao stumbled back, pushed the door open, and rushed to the bedside. He wanted to ask this man in person.

Things must not be like this…

This can’t be the case…

The man lay there quietly, his head tilted to one side, his hair falling down to cover half of his face, his face pale and cold, his eyebrows slightly furrowed in sleepiness, and he breathed evenly, as if he was asleep…

Qi Xiao stared at the person in front of him.

His Adam’s apple rolled, and his eyes closed as if he was fragile and could break at the slightest touch. After a long time, Qi Xiao seemed to have finally made up his mind and gently pushed the person in front of him.

However, the man did not respond and continued to sleep soundly.

Qi Xiao suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart… He turned around and said sternly: “Send the imperial physician over!”

The imperial physician had been staying in Youlan Realm and rushed over immediately after hearing the news. When he saw Qi Xiao’s terrifying face, he immediately asked nervously: “Qi GongZi, is there any problem?”

After recuperating for a period of time, Lan Junhe is no longer in any serious condition. Although… although Qi Xiao did treat him a little too harshly, those actions should not have endangered his life, right?

The imperial physician was very worried.

Qi Xiao clenched his hands tightly. He didn’t even have time to figure out where the fear in his heart came from. He took a deep breath and said in a low voice: “Go and see him, why can’t he wake up…”

The imperial physician stepped forward and held the man’s wrist. After a moment, he showed a puzzled look and took out a silver needle to prick his acupuncture points. After a long while, the man still looked like he was asleep…

Qi Xiao watched as the imperial physician tried several methods but still failed to wake Lan Junhe up. His heart sank, and anxiety overwhelmed him like a flood.

Won’t……

He doesn’t believe…

Qi Xiao’s voice trembled slightly as he asked: “What happened to him?”

The imperial physician was well-informed, but he had never seen conditions like Lan Junhe’s before. Lan Junhe clearly had no problems, so why was he unconscious?

He wiped the sweat from his forehead: “Old, old physician is not very knowledgeable and can’t figure it out for a while…”

Qi Xiao’s jaw was clenched as he stared at him intently, his eyes red and filled with hostility.

The imperial physician felt a chill down his spine after being looked at, and he quickly and carefully tried to comfort him: “Why not observe him for a while, maybe he will wake up soon…”

He said this with no confidence. How could Qi Xiao not hear that?

Soul Gu, Soul Gu.

Controlling people’s minds and devouring their souls…

Since it has no effect on the body, it can not be seen.

Qi Xiao already believed it, but he was unwilling to accept such a result.

After a long time, Qi Xiao slowly exhaled, his voice hoarse: “You go.”

The imperial physician hurriedly carried the box and left. He was really a little afraid of Qi Xiao. Although this young man was young, he was paranoid and moody. He was also a top expert. If he really killed him in anger, he would have to accept his fate. His Highness would never offend Qi Xiao for him…

When the imperial physician went out, he happened to meet Feng Zhuo, who was coming towards him.

Feng Zhuo asked: “How is Lan Junhe?”

The imperial physician said ashamedly: “Lan Junhe is unconscious, but his body is fine. I can’t figure out the reason…”

Feng Zhuo nodded, thinking, and said: “You can go now. Don’t worry about this matter anymore. I know what’s going on.”

With Feng Zhuo’s words, the imperial physician felt as if he had been pardoned and left with many thanks.

Finally, I don’t have to worry about this hot potato anymore!

Feng Zhuo walked slowly into the courtyard and saw Qi Xiao standing alone in front of Lan Junhe’s bed… He couldn’t help but feel mixed emotions.

When he first got the news, he was shocked and unbelievable.

But Tu Qizhi didn’t need to fool himself about this matter, and there was no benefit in lying. The reason why he told him everything without hiding anything was just to please him, to show his sincerity, and to find a glimmer of hope.

Feng Zhuo looked for a moment, but in the end, he did not step forward but turned and left.

Qi Xiao needs some time to accept the facts.

At this time, it is best to leave him alone.

………………

Lin Ziran has been very tired recently. Although Qi Xiao had been away for a short time, he soon fell into a deep sleep. He always felt like he could never sleep enough…

It seemed like he slept for a long time, until he couldn’t stand the hunger anymore. He opened his eyes dazedly, and when he opened his eyes… he saw Qi Xiao kneeling beside the bed, lying there, and seemed to be asleep, with one hand still tightly holding his wrist…

Lin Ziran was a little confused as to why Qi Xiao was guarding him like this…

But never mind.

He wanted to pull his hand back, but he didn’t know if he had slept for too long and his body was not very flexible. He wanted to pull it back directly, but he only moved slightly and couldn’t pull it away all at once. His body was not very obedient…

This feeling was very familiar. It was like this when You Chi controlled him, but at that time, he had no control over his body and could only watch himself move. Now he could control himself, but it seemed like there was something between them, as if the body, this machine, had poor contact and was not responsive…

Lin Ziran thought of it immediately.

Could it be that You Chi is dead, but the influence of the soul Gu on him is still there?

He didn’t pull his hand out, but he woke Qi Xiao up.

The young man suddenly raised his head, his eyes were red and there was blue under his eyes, as if he had not had a good rest for a long time.

The look in his eyes when he looked at him was so complex and dark, as if he was on the verge of collapse and madness…

Lin Ziran was shocked. He had used the death of Qi Xiao’s parents to provoke him before, but Qi Xiao didn’t look like this. Although he was extremely angry, he still calmed down… What happened to make Qi Xiao look like this?

Qi Xiao stared at the person in front of him, not even daring to blink. He had been guarding for two days and one night. He was very scared, very scared that this person would never wake up, so he didn’t dare to leave for a moment…

Fortunately, fortunately, you woke up…

Qi Xiao looked at the person in front of him. His gaze was longing and fragile, sad and heartbroken. After a long while, he slowly opened his mouth and said word by word: “I know everything. The matter between you and my mother… and the matter of the soul Gu…”

The young man’s lips moved slightly, and his voice was low and hoarse, with a slight tremor, as if he was begging: “Tell me, are these all true? Is that right?”

Please tell me this isn’t true.

Tell me…

【Lin Ziran:……】

【System: What happened? 】

【Lin Ziran was shocked: You asked me what happened, why are you so calm? He knows everything, what should I do, Ahhhhh!】

【System: Anyway, the plot has collapsed, so let’s just leave it alone? 】

【Lin Ziran: …】He shouldn’t have complained to the system!

Lin Ziran was immediately very anxious. He was about to quit the game, but why did this happen again? This shouldn’t happen. You Chi was already dead, so who would tell Qi Xiao this…

Wait…Tu Qizhi!

That guy pretends to be Lan Junhe’s friend, but he was actually You Chi’s lackey. He had been helping You Chi keep an eye on Lan Junhe. He was a shameless spy! Two-faced!

Tu Qizhi knew everything about him, and if one imagined the rest, they could basically get the whole picture… But in the original plot, Tu Qizhi was not caught at all, and he didn’t say these things, and Qi Xiao killed him soon after killing You Chi…

This plot never happened.

But this time, Qi Xiao was reluctant to kill him. Could it be that after so long, such a change had occurred?

Lin Ziran finally got anxious.

He is the one who is leaving, so if he dies, then he dies. Why let Qi Xiao know the truth? The child will definitely not be able to accept it!

Lin Ziran was about to deny it immediately, and he started to talk anxiously: What do you know? It’s not like that at all. Don’t just believe what others say!

He had a lot of things to say and was ready to mock Qi Xiao, but when he opened his mouth, he uttered a few intermittent sounds: “You…ah, no…haa…”

The more anxious Lin Ziran became, the less coherent he became, and he was suddenly confused.

【Lin Ziran said anxiously: What the hell is wrong with me? A mute stuttered? Does the soul Gu have this effect? 】

【System: Not mute, but stupid.】

【Lin Ziran: ? ? ?】

【System: The owner of soul Gu is You Chi. Once You Chi dies, the soul Gu will begin to devour the host’s three souls and seven spirits until the host dies. However, this process takes more than ten days. It is not very obvious in the early stage, and the host will have symptoms of dementia in the later stage… In order to help the player perform better, although you are actually awake, your body will show symptoms, such as slow movements, uncoordinated movements, unclear speech, etc…】

【Lin Ziran: … Shit. 】Is this Alzheimer’s? !

Qi Xiao watched the man wake up. He was originally relieved and had a glimmer of hope… But at this moment, the glimmer of relief that had just risen was completely shattered in a short time, causing him to fall into a bottomless abyss in an instant.

The man’s eyes were hazy, and there was a strange smile on his face. He seemed to be very excited when he saw him, and wanted to open his mouth to speak, but after talking for a long time, he only uttered babbling words…Saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth…

Qi Xiao was motionless like a stone statue. The funny scene in front of him gradually became hazy, making it difficult for him to distinguish between illusion and reality. He just felt very cold, as if he was cold from the inside out, so cold that even his breathing felt like being cut by a knife.

He knew it clearly.

This man will never answer him in person again.

Until this moment, there was no hope in his heart. What Tu Qizhi said was all true…

But he would rather Tu Qizhi lied to him.

Rather, this person never cared about him.

Rather, this person really wants to kill him.

That way, at least… he’s still alive and won’t die.

Qi Xiao just knelt there, unable to suppress the sadness in his eyes.

No wonder Lan Junhe repeatedly angered him and wanted him to kill him because he didn’t want to see him like this, didn’t want to know the truth. He had given so much and sacrificed everything for him… The only thing he wanted in the end was to die with dignity.

But he was not even willing to do this, and instead tortured him in every way…

How sad and disheartened he must have been when he was humiliated by himself…

At that time, he endured the pain and watched himself hurt him.

Yet he managed to remain silent.

Qi Xiao didn’t dare to think about it. As soon as he thought about it, he felt heartbroken, which was a hundred times and a thousand times worse than the pain he felt when the sword pierced his chest.

Why, why didn’t he find out earlier?

Why, why didn’t he know anything?

He was ignorant and hurting the only person left in the world who loved him the most?

Lin Ziran knew something was wrong when he saw Qi Xiao’s expression. He was afraid that the child could not bear such a blow. But how could he comfort him? He couldn’t even say a word clearly. Beat it!

【Lin Ziran was angry: Why didn’t you tell me earlier that I would be like this? 】

【System doubted: Is this important?】

【Lin Ziran: …Of course it is important! 】

【System: I told you, you will die soon. 】

【Lin Ziran:……】

Lin Ziran didn’t want to talk to the system anymore. He reached out to grab Qi Xiao’s hand and tried to speak again: “Ah, ah… a… you… good, well… aa…”

Qi Xiao looked at the man in front of him with longing, and seeing the man’s infatuated smile, he reached out and tried to grab his hand. There was no coldness and sharpness in his eyes as in the past, no cold murderous intent, sarcasm and ridicule… There was only the innocence of a child, clear and transparent, as if there was still concern for him…

There is no more cover-up…

So, this is what you really mean, right?

You want me to be well, right?

Even now, your instinct is still to care about me, right?

Qi Xiao reached out and held Lin Ziran’s hand tightly. His eyes suddenly became gentle. I finally know that you care about me. You finally stopped hiding it. This is what I want…

But why does my heart feel like it is being cut into pieces by thousands of knives?

Qi Xiao’s eyes were gentle but mixed with sadness and despair.

Maybe it’s because when I knew all this, that’s when I lost you…

Qi Xiao slowly exhaled, his eyelashes trembling.

He held the man’s hand humbly and carefully for a long time, and said in a gentle and coaxing voice: “ShiShu, you have slept for two days. Are you hungry? Wait a moment, I will go to cook for you…”

He patted the man’s back gently until he finally calmed down, then he quickly left.

Qi Xiao went to the kitchen and found that the food he had made before was still hot, so he brought it back quickly.

Lin Ziran lay there, he was tired.

He never thought that speaking would be so difficult! So angry.

This body is really broken, he can’t control it anymore, what a broken thing.

Qi Xiao came back quickly. He did not come forward immediately, but asked anxiously: “I will feed you, okay?”

It’s up to you to decide whether it’s okay or not, I can’t explain it clearly now.

Lin Ziran was silent.

Qi Xiao held him carefully, with pain in his eyes. He slightly exerted force on the hand holding the spoon, and the man lay obediently in his arms. He finally stopped resisting, and no longer showed a look of disappointment and disgust towards him, nor did he accuse him of provoking him and asking him to kill him…

He doesn’t know anything anymore.

Qi Xiao closed his eyes tightly, then opened them again, and slowly fed Lin Ziran with a spoon.

Lin Ziran felt that swallowing had become difficult, and the meal was not smooth. When he finished eating, the porridge was all over his lips and chin, and his clothes were also stained.

Qi Xiao apologized repeatedly and helped him change into clean clothes.

While changing clothes, he saw the marks on the man’s body, mottled purple, all left by himself, showing his beastly behavior, which made his hands tremble…

He wishes he could kill himself.

What on earth did he do…

Qi Xiao’s chest ached and he dared not look anymore. He gently let Lin Ziran lie down until the man fell asleep again. Then he walked out of the room and looked up at the sky, his eyes dark and silent.

He turned around and went to the dungeon again.

Tu Qizhi had been released, but was still in custody. He was very nervous when he saw Qi Xiao coming over.

Qi Xiao’s face was cold and his voice was low and hoarse: “Soul Gu, is there a way to remove it?”

Tu Qizhi shook his head: “As far as I know, the soul Gu can not be cured, it can only be transferred, but the method of transfer is only known by You Chi…”

Qi Xiao’s voice was cold, and he suddenly said in a stern voice: “Nonsense, how did Lan Junhe do it?”

Tu Qizhi was stunned: “I, I don’t know either…”

Qi Xiao glanced at him and turned away.

He came to You Chi’s residence again.

No matter what, he had to find a way to transfer the soul Gu! Maybe if he transferred it back now, Lan Junhe could still be saved. It must not be too late, it must not be too late…

Qi Xiao kept telling himself that he had to transfer the soul Gu back.

Maybe in this way, Lan Junhe can still survive.

Qi Xiao searched day and night, and even asked Feng Zhuo’s people to search together, wishing he could dig up the entire Youlan Realm!

………………

Lin Ziran spends more time sleeping than awake.

Every time he woke up, Qi Xiao would appear not long after. Qi Xiao would feed him gently and carefully, help him wash his body, and change his clothes. He looked calm and normal, not as desperate and sad as last time, which made Lin Ziran slowly feel relieved.

Maybe Qi Xiao is stronger than he thought, he can make it through!

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

That day Qi Xiao once again watched over Lin Ziran, watched him fall asleep, and once again came to You Chi’s place.

For so many days, everyone was mobilized, but nothing was found.

He looked everywhere he could…

But, nothing…

Slowly, hope turned into despair, and despair became an increasing silence.

Qi Xiao was in a trance, walking on the dark and cold stone road, and then he came to the secret room where he found the man…

The damp and cold stone chamber is now empty.

Qi Xiao walked in and closed his eyes. What appeared before his eyes was the scene of the man appearing in front of him that day.

That day, he thought it was a gift from God.

Because this person is still alive.

He is not dead yet.

At that time, he didn’t understand what he felt in his heart. Now he finally understood that he was grateful at that time… He was more grateful that Lan Junhe was still alive than hated him.

He was so glad that this man was alive instead of dying in You Chi’s hands. He was so happy that You Chi lied to him…Lan Junhe was not dead.

But now he understands.

You Chi did not lie to him.

He also understood the true meaning of You Chi’s smile when he was dying.

He said he killed him.

This is true.

When You Chi died, he actually took Lan Junhe’s life with him. He just gave this destined death a short grace period and gave him an illusory hope…

That was not a so-called gift, but just a joke by You Chi.

His joy and his relief were all a joke.

When he killed You Chi with his own hands, he also killed the person he loved most with his own hands.

The time now was just the time God gave him to repent… But he didn’t even make good use of this last bit of time. He didn’t take good care of Lan Junhe, but hurt him, making him disappointed and sad…

Qi Xiao slowly slid down and sat on the ground, his back against the cold wall. He raised his head and closed his eyes.

His eyes feel a little sore.

He raised his hand and brushed his face, and there seemed to be traces of moisture.

You Chi did not leave any method to transfer the soul Gu. He would not leave such hope for him. He should have faced reality long ago, but he still held on to the tiny extravagant hope…

But there is nothing…

He had no hope. His hope was destroyed by his own hands.

It would be better if he hadn’t killed You Chi.

What hatred, what revenge, it doesn’t matter anymore…

Qi Xiao smiled softly, and seemed to be crying, with a strange and unpleasant voice…

He just wanted him to be alive…

Even if it costs everything, it doesn’t matter.

But he didn’t have a chance to redeem himself.

………………

Lin Ziran woke up that day and found Qi Xiao standing by his side. The boy looked a little tired, but his eyes were gentle and affectionate. He just lay beside him, like a tired bird returning to its nest, leaning on him in such a dependent manner.

Qi Xiao was delighted to see him wake up, his eyelashes trembling, and he said softly: “ShiShu, are you hungry? I’ll go and cook for you.”

He immediately trotted out and soon cooked a large table of dishes. He looked at him with a flattering expression and said: “What do you want to eat? This, this… or this…?”

Lin Ziran swallowed his saliva. The food on the table was quite attractive to him. He wanted to eat the crystal shrimp, so he babbled and pointed over there, eatttttt, quickly feed me!

Qi Xiao immediately understood and picked up one to feed him. Fearing that he would choke if he ate too fast, he patted his back gently.

Tastes great!

Lin Ziran just pointed at whatever he wanted to eat. Qi Xiao had been good at observing people’s expressions since he was a child. He was very comfortable with the meal and couldn’t help but give Qi Xiao a look of approval.

Qi Xiao looked at the man’s brilliant smile. He knew nothing about it. He ate happily and smiled happily at himself. He didn’t remember how much harm he had done to him…

He doesn’t remember anything.

Qi Xiao’s eyes dimmed, his hands clenched slightly, but he soon smiled, hugged Lin Ziran’s waist, leaned on his shoulder, and said in a low and hoarse voice: “ShiShu, we will leave here when you get better. I have many places I haven’t been to yet. I heard that there are many interesting places outside. Can you accompany me…”

As he spoke, he showed an expectant look and murmured to himself: “You are so good to me. If it weren’t for you, I would have died long ago… From now on, I will take care of you, okay? I will definitely take good care of you…”

As Qi Xiao spoke, he seemed to think of something, and there was a look of tenderness and love in the depths of his eyes. He slowly tightened his arms around Lin Ziran’s waist, as if he was a little embarrassed: “ShiShu, I, I really really like you… We will never be separated again, right…”

Lin Ziran was eating happily and thought Qi Xiao had let it go, knowing that life and death are determined by fate and can not be forced. But now, seeing his infatuated look and talking to himself, he immediately started to worry again. Would the child be driven crazy?

No, no, he is going to die, he can’t let Qi Xiao be like this.

Lin Ziran grabbed him and wanted to speak anxiously: “You, you… Shi, ShiJie…”

I treat you well only for ShiJie, you should know all this, but please don’t do anything wrong and really fall in love with me!

Qi Xiao stared at him blankly for a long while, his heart seemed to be slowly torn apart, the sharp pain made him almost unable to breathe.

Every time he thought he had reached the abyss, he could fall even deeper.

The facts he deliberately avoided, everything he didn’t want to think about, he could no longer continue to deceive himself.

ShiJie?

You thought of my mother…

Yes, I know everything. The reason you treat me well is only because of my mother. I know all this…

In your eyes, I am just the child of the woman you love.

I look a lot like her, don’t I?

When you gave so much to me, when you accompanied me and looked at me, were you thinking about her?

But, I love you!

My feelings towards you are not just respect for an elder. I also love you!

But you don’t know.

There will be no chance to know in the future.

Qi Xiao lowered his head and laughed at himself, but when he looked up again, he could no longer show any emotion. He hugged Lin Ziran tighter and said softly: “You can think of me as her. I will always be with you…”

Can you no longer tell me and her apart?

But that doesn’t matter, as long as you are still by my side, as long as you are still alive, it doesn’t matter who you love in your heart…

Even if you are nice to me, just because of her.

It doesn’t matter…

【Lin Ziran: …That’s not what I meant.】

【System: What do you mean? 】

【Lin Ziran:……】

Shit, what does he mean? With such a stupid look, who knows what he means? Beat it.

Lin Ziran has completely given up.

He found that no matter what he said, the final effect would be very different, so it would be better not to say anything.

So tired, just go to sleep!

Qi Xiao hugged Lin Ziran, his eyes wavered, hesitating for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice: “ShiShu, can you hug me?”

Lin Ziran didn’t respond, but Qi Xiao was not disappointed. He gently pulled Lin Ziran’s hand and placed it on his body, leaning towards Lin Ziran, his eyes full of love, tenderness and paranoia. The two of them just snuggled there quietly…

Like a statue.

………………

Qi Xiao felt very safe leaning on this person. He slept very soundly. When the sky was getting light, the morning sun shone in through the crack of the door. He slowly opened his eyes and wanted to wake Lan Junhe up, but when he touched him lightly, his palms felt cold.

The man lay there quietly, as if he was asleep, with a calm and peaceful look on his face.

He just had no chest movement and no body temperature.

Qi Xiao felt as if his body was heavy as a thousand pounds, as if he was possessed by something. After a long time, he raised his hand tremblingly, stroked the man’s cold face, and then carefully put his face close to his, begging in a low voice: “ShiShu, wake up, it’s dawn.”

But the man did not answer, just like every time before, he slept very deeply.

Qi Xiao was silent for a long time before getting up from the bed. He went outside to make breakfast and brought it in. After a while, the man still didn’t wake up. Qi Xiao showed an uneasy look, and his voice was low and hoarse with a hint of sobs: “Don’t sleep, are you deceiving me again? You always deceive me…”

The man still didn’t respond.

Qi Xiao stayed beside him, motionless.

From day to night, from night to day.

Qi Xiao sat next to the man, holding his hand without letting go. The hand was as cold as ice, and his body seemed to be extremely frozen. Qi Xiao used both hands to cover his hand, but he couldn’t warm it up. He began to feel weak, and his expression was depressed and sad. He said in a low voice: “Are you still blaming me? I know I was wrong. Don’t scare me. Open your eyes and look at me, okay…”

“It’s all Xiao’er’s fault, can you please forgive Xiao’er just once…”

Qi Xiao’s eyes were filled with tears, but no matter how much he begged, the man did not respond at all.

He knew that it was all his fault that ShiShu refused to pay attention to him. Who made him do such an excessive thing?

He doesn’t deserve to be forgiven…

Qi Xiao knelt down beside the man, stretched out his hand, and gently traced his face with his fingertips…

The morning of the third day.

Qi Xiao stood up shakily, brought water and a towel, wiped Lan Junhe’s face, helped him change his clothes, and then carried him to the back mountain.

Qingyi Shushu always practiced with him here before.

Qi Xiao carefully placed Lan Junhe under the tree, sat against the trunk, and then came to the front to start practicing martial arts. His moves were steady and powerful, and he practiced very seriously, and soon, his clothes were soaked with sweat.

After practicing several times, Qi Xiao wiped his sweat and came to Lan Junhe, showing a shy smile: “ShiShu, how is my practice going?”

Lan Junhe did not respond.

Qi Xiao then said to himself: “Didn’t you see clearly? I will practice it again for you.”

In the past, you always accompanied me silently and took great pains to guide and train me… I didn’t understand it at the time, but now I know everything. The words you said and the things you did were all in the hope that I could become stronger.

Because in this world, only the strong can survive, and you want to protect me…

When you hit me and scolded me, your heart hurt more than mine… You never really wanted to hurt me, so every night, you would come to heal my wounds so gently. You were also worried that I didn’t eat well or sleep well, so you secretly sent me food and daily necessities. When I was in pain and sadness, you would patiently coax me to sleep…

I now understand your painstaking efforts.

You failed to protect my mother, but you wanted to protect me.

I will fulfill your expectations.

Qi Xiao lowered his eyes, turned around, and practiced again and again.

Until it gradually darkened.

Dusk came.

Qi Xiao carried Lan Junhe back. Lan Junhe couldn’t eat, and Qi Xiao didn’t want to bother him, so he put him on the bed and lay down beside him, staring at this person without blinking, unwilling to look away.

Until the next morning.

Qi Xiao helped Lan Junhe sit up and said to him with a smile: “ShiShu, the weather is good today, I’ll take you out for some fresh air, okay?”

As he spoke, he helped Lan Junhe put his clothes in order, and gently combed his hair, saying a few words from time to time.

This is what Feng Zhuo saw when he came over.

The cold man sat on the bed with his eyes closed, as if he was just asleep, while Qi Xiao held a strand of his hair in one hand and took care of it attentively. His eyes were gentle and affectionate, with a smile on his face, as if he was saying something…

Feng Zhuo suddenly couldn’t bear to watch it anymore.

He thought that by revealing the truth, Qi Xiao would wake up, give Lan Junhe a quick death, and completely let go of the past.

But what is the result?

At this moment, Feng Zhuo began to be unsure whether his behavior was right or wrong. Maybe… it was wrong.

He pondered for a moment, strode over, and said: “He is dead.”

Qi Xiao paused suddenly, and turned back, looking extremely angry, but he tried to suppress it, and said in a low voice: “Go away, don’t bother ShiShu, I’m afraid ShiShu will be unhappy.”

Feng Zhuo said sternly: “Don’t you understand? He is already dead!”

Qi Xiao’s face changed slightly, and he seemed a little anxious. His eyes suddenly turned cold, with a dangerous light, and he said word by word: “He is not dead. If you continue to talk nonsense, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Feng Zhuo looked into Qi Xiao’s eyes for a long time, then slowly said: “You know exactly what happened, and that’s all I have to say.”

Feng Zhuo shook his head and finally turned and left.

Anyone in this world can be saved, except those who deceive themselves and others.

He never thought about being rescued.

Seeing Feng Zhuo leave, Qi Xiao quickly turned back and said nervously: “ShiShu, don’t be angry, he is talking nonsense, I will take good care of you, you will be fine.”

He said that he had finally finished taking care of him, and then he went out with Lan Junhe on his back.

On this day, Qi Xiao walked almost all of their previous places.

Qi Xiao recalled the past moments of their time together, the ups and downs of the past ten years… Thinking of Lan Junhe’s coldness on the surface, and how he seemed fierce and cruel to him, but was so gentle behind the scenes, he couldn’t help but feel warm in his heart, but then he felt annoyed. He was so ignorant at that time, why couldn’t he understand that this was Lan Junhe’s protection for him…

Or maybe he’s not smart enough.

So the more he thought about it, the sadder and the more guilty he felt.

In the evening, Qi Xiao took Lan Junhe home and settled down as usual. Although Lan Junhe never responded to him, he never slacked off and always took care of him carefully.

It’s like he want to make up for all the things he did wrong in the past, and say all the things he didn’t have time to say before.

That night, Qi Xiao helped Lan Junhe clean his cheek. Although he was very gentle, a piece of skin suddenly fell off when he touched Lan Junhe’s face.

Qi Xiao was horrified when he saw the man’s damaged face. He apologized repeatedly with a wronged and sad look in his eyes: “So, sorry, I didn’t mean it…”

He felt very sad when he saw the man like this. I was so careless, and you didn’t blame me.

Why don’t you scold me anymore?

Qi Xiao was restless. He suddenly thought of something and hurried out and came back. He took the familiar black mask and put it on Lan Junhe so that he could not see the man’s damaged face.

Yes, he is still alive and well.

Qi Xiao felt relieved. He hugged the man gently, murmured, and looked expectantly: “Qingyi Shushu, you promised me that you would leave with me when everything was over…”

“Now that everything is over, let’s leave here and go to a place where there are only the two of us, okay…”

That gentle question was so low that it seemed to blend into the night.

But it was so pious and firm.

Like an eternal promise.

Nothing in this world can separate them.

Even death is the same.

………………

Feng Zhuo finished dealing with the affairs of Youlan Realm and was about to leave. Before leaving, he thought about it and decided to say goodbye to Qi Xiao.

He came to the courtyard again, but it was surprisingly quiet.

It was so quiet that no one seemed to be there.

As for the person, he has disappeared.
