After saying those words, Nan Qing walked past those people toward the park exit.

At this moment, Fang Yun, Su Lin, and the others, who had been stunned by Nan Qing, finally came to their senses. Fang Lin quickly chased after Nan Qing's retreating figure.

Fang Yun watched as the figures before him slowly turned to ashes, and finally even the ashes dissipated into the air. He then turned to Shi Bei and said:

"Nan Qing's special abilities may be even more powerful than we imagined."

He looked at Shi Bei, who was still staring at Nan Qing's departing figure, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke:

"I've been thinking about whether to invite Nanqing to stay with our team and do missions with us."

"But I'm also worried that she might get hurt someday, after all, our mission..."

As Fang Yun spoke, he also looked at Nan Qing's retreating figure and said with a touch of emotion:

"But now it seems hard to say who's protecting whom."

"Boss, what do you think?"

"Whether it's because of Nan Qing's spatial abilities, or something else, or... your relationship..."

"I would strongly suggest trying to keep Nanqing in our team."

From the moment Nan Qing made his move, Shi Bei, whose expression had remained somewhat unclear, responded in a low voice:

"Um."

"I will handle it."

Others might not have paid much attention to what Nan Qing had just said, assuming it was just some harsh words she uttered because she was overwhelmed with grief.

But only Shi Bei.

He was not at peace when he heard those words.

Because only he knew that the Qingqing he loved was not the person he met in his past life.

His beloved was an unexpected presence in this world.

Perhaps... everything his sweetheart said was true.

Those people might really be as she said.

They will go to hell, suffer a hundred years of punishment, and be reincarnated ten times.

If that's the case...

So.

Who exactly is his beloved Qingqing?

Shi Bei suddenly felt uneasy and a little scared.

This Qingqing seemed somewhat ethereal to him; he couldn't grasp her.

It's as if Qingqing never belonged to him.

He never truly knew his Qingqing.

Shi Bei's dark eyes gradually grew darker and darker. He looked at Nan Qing's back and kept repeating the name "Qing Qing" in his heart.

Suddenly, something came to mind.

Shi Bei, whose brows and eyes had just become increasingly gloomy, smiled faintly, his beautiful eyes revealing a determined air.

No matter who she is.

All he knew was that she was his beloved.

Even if he couldn't keep him, he would force him to stay.

Shi Bei turned his head and looked down at his left wrist, which had suddenly become a little hot.

at this time.

A strong, burning sensation emanated from his wrist all the way to his heart.

Shi Bei looked up in the direction Nan Qing had left, as if sensing something.

My dearest.

Whether you are a god or a demon, he will keep his beloved.

On the way ahead.

Su Lin and Jiang Wenchuan were worried that Nan Qing was in a bad mood, so they kept telling her all sorts of funny stories and jokes in the car to cheer her up.

In fact, Nanqing was not affected at all.

For her, she had done what she was supposed to do, and that was the end of the matter.

However, she did not reject their kindness and cooperated and supported them throughout the entire process.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Fang Yun glanced at the people in the back through the rearview mirror and listened to the various noises of playfulness inside the car.

Suddenly I realized...

Since Nan Qing joined them, their team has become more and more lively and interesting.

This is fine.

In this world filled with despair, at least they themselves are alive and warm to each other.

Late at night, Shi Bei and his group found a hotel to rest.

However, this hotel is not as good as the five-star hotel I stayed at last night.

However, at least we found a few relatively clean rooms. Everyone had been traveling all day, so after dinner, we all went back to our rooms to rest.

But nobody knew.

It was past 1 a.m. when it happened.

While everyone was dreaming.

Shi Bei opened the door that Nan Qing had locked again with practiced ease.

He sat quietly by Nanqing's bedside. Years of training had allowed him to see Qingqing's sleeping face clearly even in the dark.

He suppressed his hands, which were itching to touch Qingqing.

He now understood very well that Nan Qing's abilities were stronger than anyone else's, and he could no longer try to use his psychic powers to make Qing Qing sleep more soundly, just like last time.

Through the darkness, Shi Bei gazed intently at every inch of Nan Qing's face.

His beloved.

How can I get closer to her?

And so, Shi Bei sat there blankly, staring at Nan Qing for a long time.

suddenly.

Shi Bei got up and slowly walked to the other side of the bed, then gently lifted the blanket and lay down.

He slowly moved his body, slowly, slowly, he got closer and closer to his beloved.

He only stopped what he was doing when he smelled the faint floral fragrance unique to Nan Qing.

Look how good it is now, how close he is to his beloved.

He was so close that he could feel the warm body temperature emanating from Nan Qing.

He was so close that he could easily lift his hand and hold his beloved in his arms, holding her tightly.

But.

He dared not.

He dared not touch Nan Qing, who was only a few centimeters away from him.

However, as long as he can see Qingqing, that's enough for him. As long as he can stay quietly by Qingqing's side, that's enough for him.

Shi Bei turned his body to the side, keeping his eyes open and silently watching Nan Qing.

He is very content with everything he has now.

But.

Feeling the temperature in Shi Bei, Nan Qing suddenly changed direction, from lying flat to lying on her side facing Shi Bei.

She even subtly moved closer to Shi Bei.

Shi Bei watched quietly as his Qingqing slowly approached him.

He also watched as his beloved placed her small hands on his waist, and even wrapped her smooth thighs around him, hugging him tightly.

Shi Bei looked down at Nan Qing nestled in his arms, then gently pulled her closer to him.

He waited silently for a while longer, until Nanqing had completely fallen into a deep sleep.

Shi Bei then gently lifted Nan Qing's head, put his arm under her neck, and moved Nan Qing to rest her head on his arm.

that's all.

He finally embraced his beloved completely.

He felt the warmth and fragrance emanating from Nan Qing, and the sensation of their skin touching.

At this moment, a hint of satisfaction finally appeared in Shi Bei's eyes.

He placed a devout and loving kiss on Nanqing's fluffy head.

Then, holding his beloved, he slowly closed his eyes, which were filled with excitement.

She also fell asleep along with Nanqing's breathing rhythm.
