For a moment, Yan Li really wanted to crack open Wen Shanbai's skull to see what kind of brain it was that could say such things without blushing at all.
"Does Ali not want to take responsibility?"
Wen Shanbai seemed to realize Yan Li's resistance, and slowly lowered his head, saying in a muffled voice, "If A Li doesn't want to take responsibility..."
“I can take responsibility for Ali.”
Wen Shanbai kept lowering his posture, as if he were the one who had truly been wronged.
His still-wet hair started to cause trouble, dripping drop by drop, soon soaking his shoulder.
It really looks like a delicate flower that's easy to love and cherish.
It's just a series about man-eating plants.
"..."
Yan Li gritted her teeth and said, "Let's talk about surviving first." With that, she covered his head with a headscarf and started wiping him haphazardly.
Wen Shanbai's eyes were lowered, staring intently at Yan Li's waist.
Would she agree to his request if he lived?
A faint smile slowly curved his lips.
Ah Li, some promises can't be made lightly. Now that you've agreed, you can't leave on your own.
Yan Li had no idea what Wen Shanbai was planning. As she wiped the hair, her hand slowly moved down and pulled up a few strands.
Like being stroked by a cat, it was rolled into a ball, kneaded on the top of the head, and then rubbed again.
Wen Shanbai was completely exasperated by Yan Li's teasing, and even narrowed his eyes with great satisfaction, thinking back to the past.
If they had met her sooner, would they have really lived like ordinary people?
In an ordinary little house, two people, two pairs of chopsticks, lived a simple and uneventful life, and no one would bother them...
Suddenly, Yan Li couldn't stop her strength and pulled out a few strands of Wen Shanbai's hair. Then, she paused for a moment, feeling a little guilty, before she eased her grip.
Wen Shanbai also came to his senses at this moment.
He was being foolish. If the Abyss hadn't existed, he might never have met her.
Wen Shanbai, how dare you lay a hand on her?
Suddenly, a voice rang in his mind, and it was as if a huge crack had opened in his heart, with countless emotions surging outwards wildly.
It was as if running a little too slowly would get you locked up again.
He was actually panicked, even afraid, by a possibility that had never occurred before, even knowing that this person was standing right in front of him at this very moment.
But for Wen Shanbai, that was no longer enough.
He finally couldn't resist and hugged Yan Li's waist, pulling her into his arms with a little force. Yan Li was even more surprised. She put her hand on his chest, but by sheer coincidence, it landed on his wound.
For a moment, exerting force was not an option, nor was not exerting force.
However, Wen Shanbai did not give Yan Li much time to consider. He was too fast, as if he had planned it for a long time. He pinched her chin with his fingertips and kissed her.
It is the most direct collision of lips and teeth, yet it is also the most suffocating.
Yan Li had no idea what Wen Shanbai was thinking during his long silence; she simply forgot to push him away and simply felt his presence in the most straightforward way.
After an unknown amount of time, Wen Shanbai slowly looked up and moved away, and the headscarf that hadn't been pulled off quietly landed on their faces.
"Don't be sad, I won't let you die young." Although the wording wasn't very accurate, it was what Yan Li most wanted to say to Wen Shanbai at this moment.
She didn't know if she was possessed, but she kept reassuring herself in her heart.
For the many beings in the mortal realm, lifespan will eventually come to an end; for her, it was merely a short segment of a long life journey.
It's better to leave it than to leave with regrets.
As long as that evil dragon remains in the abyss, she will eventually have a chance to find it.
After Yan Li patted Wen Shanbai's head and made another promise, what she didn't know was that Wen Shanbai's heart trembled again, and finally slowly melted into a puddle of water.
How could his Ah Li be so good to him, so good that he felt he was too despicable and unworthy to keep her.
However, this conscientious thought only appeared for a brief moment.
…*…
Several days passed.
Yan Li seemed to have forgotten her mission, spending every day in the cave with Wen Shanbai. And ever since she discovered that he could live without eating, she rarely took the Xuan Shuang Sword out.
Even though he knew the evil dragon might be behind that wall, and even though he knew the person locked up was Wen Shanbai, he didn't go out to investigate further.
That day.
The abyss remained as silent as ever.
Yan Li, who had just woken up in Wen Shanbai's arms, kicked him without any hesitation. Wen Shanbai didn't even open his eyes, but obediently rolled into the stone bed.
There's definitely nothing good down there.
She had said she wouldn't live much longer, but now her health is getting better and better. On the other hand, her spiritual power has not recovered.
Yan Li slowly got out of bed, stood up, and her fingertips twitched slightly, just like before, without any fluctuation of spiritual energy.
If the spiritual energy doesn't recover, and the evil dragon emerges, wouldn't that be...?
Yan Li originally thought that the spiritual energy in her body would slowly recover as before, but she did not expect that as time went by, the depleted spiritual energy in her body remained unchanged.
She was still thinking that she had gotten along fairly well with Wen Shanbai these past few days, and maybe she could find an opportunity to get some information out of him.
Now it seems that whether or not you can get the information is no longer of much significance.
Wen Shanbai opened his eyes at some point and saw everything Yan Li did. After a short while, he slowly moved to the bedside and reached out to grab Yan Li's sleeve.
