The hidden secrets of the heart are exposed by the gaps.
But he still refused to admit, and even more unwilling to accept, Song Xiwei's insightful definition that he was inferior to Aoqian.
"Do you know that throughout history, those who assist those capable and extraordinary individuals who ascend to high positions have never had a good ending? Aoqian is cunning and calculating. He needs you right now, and if he doesn't put on a convincing act for you, he has no future. But his current willingness to show you genuine affection doesn't mean he won't abandon you later..."
"You yourself said it's in the future, and you all said that the prophecy says he will cause turmoil in the Six Realms in the future, so let's wait and see." Song Xiwei was determined, and no matter what was said in the gap, she would not be swayed.
After listening to what Kongxi had to say, she became even more convinced that the path she had chosen was the right one.
She had imagined the gap to be too beautiful in the past, but now that beauty has shattered, she has seen the true nature of things and realized the truth.
Everything was traceable, but I was blinded at the time and couldn't see anything clearly.
"You're so stubborn, you won't listen to anything anymore..."
"Since you know I won't listen, then let's stop here."
I've said enough of what I should and shouldn't have said.
If we continue, I'm afraid there will be no result.
"Fine, I won't bother you anymore. I just hope that you'll grant me one request, considering the kindness of raising you."
"Please speak." Song Xiwei finally used the opportunity to ask for her help in raising her. She couldn't quite describe her feelings; was it bitterness, sorrow? It seemed like both.
So, it turns out that such a bond can also be used to negotiate terms.
"Never tell Aoqian that you are a woman," Kongxi said.
Song Xiwei never expected that Kongxi would make this request.
“Okay, I agree.” Song Xiwei agreed very readily.
I never intended to tell Aoqian, and this condition was indeed easy to meet.
There was a hint of surprise in the gap, as if she wanted to see clearly what kind of feelings Song Xiwei had for Aoqian.
But he couldn't detect the slightest hesitation in Song Xiwei's eyes.
She was so open and honest.
If she truly had feelings for Aoqian, it's impossible that she wouldn't want to revert to her female identity and be with him...
Or perhaps I'm just overthinking things?
She simply wanted to help Aoqian; there was no romantic involvement involved.
Is it true that you weren't tempted at all?
Or perhaps she simply didn't realize or notice that she had fallen for him?
After all, Song Xiwei had never experienced love.
She had focused all her energy on improving her skills.
A person who is so focused on spiritual cultivation might be rather oblivious when it comes to matters of the heart.
But the problem now is that Aoqian is eyeing Song Xiwei covetously.
However, since he didn't know that Song Xiwei was a woman, he had been restraining his feelings.
He wouldn't be foolish enough to remind Song Xiwei of anything during the gap.
No matter how important Song Xiwei placed Aoqian.
"Can I leave now?" Song Xiwei didn't want to stay a moment longer.
There was no longer any reason to keep her.
He watched her go, asking, "What if you break your promise?"
Song Xi smiled slightly: "If I break my promise, I will give you my life, even if it means cutting my flesh and breaking my bones."
"I believe you won't." He gestured through the gap, "Go on, take care."
Song Xiwei didn't look back; she disappeared so decisively.
The wound in the gap seems to have worsened.
He stared helplessly in the direction where Song Xiwei had disappeared.
Even though I used the kindness of raising her to force her to agree not to reveal the secret that she was a girl, I still feel uneasy.
I'm not worried that Song Xiwei will go back on her word; she's not that kind of person.
I just feel uneasy about Aoqian.
Now that she's gone to Chidu and spending every day with Aoqian, it's hard to say she won't develop feelings for him over time...
