Chapter 184 The Heavenly Snow Lotus Aims for Immortality 14 ...

He's definitely not a kind person.

Even though she knew long ago that he wasn't as kind as he seemed on the surface, she was still sometimes alarmed by the possessiveness in his eyes. This was different from the madness Que Heyu gave her; the latter was a madness that disregarded his own life to kill her. The former, however, felt like he wanted to drag her into a quagmire and sink with her.

why is that?

Looking at the man in front of her through her physical form, she was puzzled.

Do you like it? Like she likes Que and Yu? Love so deeply, hate so intensely? Even just thinking of that name still fills her with a sense of resentment.

What was wrong with her that he only wanted to kill her?

To say that Zhang Xuelian deeply loved him would be a lie, but it's true that she liked him to some extent. This liking was more like a possessive desire for something she liked; if she wanted it, she had to have it.

But she never got it from beginning to end. That feeling of wanting but not being able to have it was agonizing, and it made her impression on him even deeper.

And at this moment, weren't Que and Yu in the same situation?

Whenever he thought of Hong Kong, he was reminded of that day. His hand involuntarily went to his heart, where a deep scar was etched beneath his clothes, as if it had been marked on him.

She injured him with the intent to kill; that claw nearly crushed his heart. Que and Yu almost died that day, and now they can only be kept alive by an imported artificial heart. He will never forget that.

"Zhang Xuelian." He closed his eyes, trying his best to suppress the murderous intent in his heart, not wanting that demoness to gain even a sliver of emotional value, but at this moment, he still inevitably revealed a trace of it.

[Hate Value +1,000,000]

The more he suppressed it, the more terrifying it became when it erupted. All he could remember was her murderous gaze that day.

He had long forgotten what that face looked like, but he could never forget that look in her eyes. He was certain that there would never be another woman in the world who could have eyes like hers.

Your face can change, but your eyes can't.

Zhang Xuelian only came to her senses when she received this emotional signal.

Seeing this emotional value, she certainly wouldn't assume it was given by Cui Dong; it could only be him.

To my surprise, he was still alive. At that moment, Zhang Xuelian chuckled softly, and after a while, she burst into joyful laughter, "He's really lucky to be alive!" Her eyes were full of excitement.

It has to be said that, besides Cui Dong, he was the only person she remembered after she came into this world.

Upon learning that he was not dead, she was actually quite pleased and began to look forward to their next meeting.

That excitement was no less than her desire to become an immortal. On the contrary, because becoming an immortal was so far away from her, she looked forward to meeting him even more.

What kind of expression will he have then? Will he kill her?

But by then, he wouldn't be able to kill her. After all, he couldn't kill her when she was at her weakest, so why would he think he could kill her when her emotional state was still so high?

Hahaha.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xuelian felt even happier. Especially when she thought about how he tried his best to restrain himself and not give her emotional points, but still couldn't control his thoughts, the Tianshan snow lotus rooted in the exquisite flowerpot couldn't help but sway. Anyone with eyes could see that she was in a very good mood.

Cui Dong: "Are you happy?" he asked, noticing that it was the first time he had seen her so excited. Although her movements had been subtle, he could still discern their meaning.

This was the first time she had ever seen someone so happy.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuelian tried her best to calm down.

Yes, she almost forgot that she's inland now.

Cui Dong's presence reminded her that she was currently inland and couldn't stray too far from the person in front of her, so she was destined never to see the person she wanted to see.

What a pity.

This left her somewhat disappointed.

As for Cui Dong's question, she ignored it, just like always. Only Cui Dong saw this, and the darkness in his eyes deepened.

He wondered, why couldn't she transform into human form? Was it because she couldn't, or because she didn't want to?

She hasn't entered his dream since the last time.

Why? Didn't she like him in her dream? She clearly seemed to like him a lot back then.

Of course, he didn't know that entering a dream would consume 150,000 emotional points. Although she had plenty of emotional points now, it didn't mean she was wasteful; she would spend the money wisely.

After calming down, Cui Dong looked at the flowerpot in front of him and asked with concern, "Ah Xue, if there's anything I can help you with, just send me a dream message. I'll do everything I can to help." He wanted her to become a human, to see what she looked like, instead of spending all her time looking at a potted plant.

Although he liked her no matter what she looked like, he wanted more.

The beautiful flowers swayed twice but still didn't respond, just like the bright light from the car accident that day, the dream from a while ago, and even the recovery of his leg were all illusions.

Disappointment flashed in his eyes. No matter how capable he was in reality, he was a novice in the unknown, completely clueless about these matters. If she didn't want to appear, there was nothing he could do.

During that time, he did consider asking for help, but he didn't want those people to know about her existence, even if the price was that she would never appear again.

However, if she could stay with him forever, that wouldn't be bad either. Cui Dong looked at the Tian Shan snow lotus in front of him and convinced himself.

It can only be said that Que and Yu were things she could not obtain, so the person in front of her was a free gift. However, Zhang Xuelian was someone useful to her and had even helped her escape a life-or-death crisis, so she still felt a bit of gratitude. Although saving her was an honor for him.

"You like me?" The usually silent Tianshan Snow Lotus spoke up this time. Her voice was extremely beautiful, without gloom or madness, only coldness, like a high and mighty god, sitting on a pedestal, unapproachable.

Upon hearing the voice, Cui Dong was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, "Ah Xue, is that you?"

[Joy Value +1,000,000]

[Surprise Value +100,000]

This was the first time he had ever heard her voice in real life.

Zhang Xuelian nodded and said, "It's me." It wasn't that she couldn't speak, she just didn't want to. But she was genuinely curious about his answer.

At this moment, Cui Dong also remembered the question she had asked. His fists, hanging by his sides, clenched, and it was unclear whether he was telling the truth or something else.

Zhang Xuelian was right. If she had revealed from the beginning that she could transform into a human, he would have been cautious and wary. However, she was the Tianshan Snow Lotus that he had personally raised for half a year and even had to sleep next to his bed. How could he be afraid or wary?

He only hated that she couldn't become human.

[Tense Level +1,000,000]

In the end, he told the truth. He was afraid that he would never have another chance to tell the truth, so even though his heart was beating very fast, he still said with certainty, "Yes, I like you."

He wondered what her expression would be when she heard this? Angry? Would she feel he was blaspheming?

That tension, regret, and a mix of complex emotions combined to deliver a devastating blow.

[Emotional Value +2,000,000]

Zhang Xuelian suddenly realized that she still didn't quite understand the emotional value system. Why was her emotional value sometimes only 10,000, and sometimes it could be 100,000, 1 million, or 2 million?

Curious about how her appearance would evoke, Zhang Xuelian revealed herself. However, before doing so, she spent one million emotion points to give herself some boosts.

For example, the ethereal atmosphere, the pervasive fragrance, and the awe-inspiring sight of deities.

In that instant, her account balance was rapidly approaching forty million.

This was without her face being shown. The more Zhang Xuelian looked, the happier she became, and even the person she initially thought was no good suddenly seemed more attractive and pleasing to the eye.

"So what if I show up? What will you do then?" Don't talk to her about whether you like her or not, or whether you're together or not. She wants something more concrete.

Cui Dong looked at her, his throat bobbed, and his heart was pounding.

"Of course I will obey God's will and follow Ah Xue's orders." When he spoke of Ah Xue, there was a hint of tenderness in his voice.

He spoke words of inferiority, yet his gaze towards her was burning hot, as if he wanted to devour her whole.

Zhang Xuelian was startled by his gaze, wondering if she had looked at Que Heyu the same way back then. Because she didn't want to admit that this look was a bit scary, she looked directly into his eyes and said against her will, "It's fine."

It's not actually that scary.

Zhang Xuelian: "Really?" She didn't say whether she believed him or not, but simply agreed when he strongly persuaded her to stay there. Ten thousand emotional points a day really wasn't much to her.

So she went directly to the room next door and stayed there.

The two rooms were not far apart, and if the heavenly lightning didn't want to harm its chosen one, it wouldn't have been so blind as to strike. Also, when Cui Dong went out without flowers, Zhang Xuelian's main consciousness would directly enter his consciousness, so to Cui Dong, it appeared as if he were going out alone, when in reality he was going out with someone else.

Now that she has taken human form, she no longer wants to be a flower, spending her days in a flowerpot and in his consciousness. This is what is meant by "it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality."
