After another moment of silence, Yan Baibai turned around and looked at Xiao Changhen again, and continued, "But you, it's been a long time since you held your two children. You saw today, they were very happy to be held by you."
Xiao Changhen knew that Yan Baibai was starting to change the subject again, and she didn't want to say anything more to him.
Since the other party didn't want to talk about it, he shouldn't continue to ask...
No way, Xiao Changhen has never been a considerate person!
"Baibai, will we be together forever?"
Xiao Changhen reached out and took Yan Baibai's hand. He stared into her eyes and asked the question again seriously.
He could feel it, he could feel that Yan Baibai cared about him. Since she didn't dislike him, why couldn't she make a promise?
As long as she is not unwilling, no matter what the hardship is, she should say it out loud, instead of her bearing it alone while he knows nothing.
Yan Baibai looked at Xiao Changhen's expression. She knew that no matter what she did, she would not be able to escape this time like she did the last two times. With Xiao Changhen's paranoia, he would probably get to the bottom of it today.
Yan Baibai did not answer this question, but said: "Xiao Changhen, I want to drink."
Xiao Changhen frowned, was silent for a moment, and then said, "You can't drink much."
"The one who can't drink well is Mianmian, and I am Yan Baibai." Yan Baibai said.
"That's all you." Xiao Changhen exposed it expressionlessly: "I know, that's all you."
Ever since he learned that there was something called "system" living in Yan Baibai's sea of consciousness, he gradually figured out some things during countless sleepless nights.
"My cultivation is now at a high level, and I won't get drunk after just a few sips like before." Yan Baibai took out two jars of Immortal Drunk from the storage ring and handed one of them to Xiao Changhen.
Xiao Changhen paused, but finally reached out to take it.
Half an hour later, the aroma of wine filled the air under the paulownia tree, and many empty wine jars were piled under the tatami.
At this moment, both of them had flushed faces and drunken eyes.
"Baibai, can you tell me why..." Xiao Changhen still didn't forget his purpose.
"Xiao Changhen, you should know that I am a soul from another world... I came here to save this world. I cannot let this world be destroyed, but..."
"But I'm useless. I failed. The world is still heading towards destruction. I failed..."
Yan Baibai wiped her eyes and wiped away the tears before they burst out.
"I'm not here to be with you, the children of destiny. I'm not here to influence your Dao hearts. I'm not here to trouble you..."
There were still too many tears and she could never wipe them away. Yan Baibai simply stopped paying attention and let the tears flow down her cheeks.
"Xiao Changhen, I came to this world and have gained a lot, whether it's family, friendship, or love. I love this world so much. I don't want it to perish. I must, I must save this world!"
"So... saving the world will put your life in danger?" Xiao Changhen looked at Yan Baibai with heartache, but suddenly realized something was wrong: "So, you don't dare to make a promise in front of me?"
"Of course there are dangers. Not only my life will be in danger, but the lives of everyone in this world will be in danger. As long as we fail, everyone will die!" Yan Baibai looked at Xiao Changhen with tearful eyes and said slowly, "So, I don't want to make any promises at this time. Don't force me anymore."
After Yan Baibai finished speaking, she lowered her eyes, as if she was angry, or even more so, aggrieved.
"Okay, I understand." Xiao Changhen got off the bed, walked to Yan Baibai, picked her up, and left under the sycamore tree.
After drinking, Yan Baibai felt weak all over. Although she could use her spiritual power to force the alcohol out, she didn't want to do that now.
"Baibai, are you tired?" Xiao Changhen looked down at the person in his arms and asked in a low voice.
"Sometimes I feel tired." Yan Baibai nodded: "But most of the time, I am happy."
"in vain……"
"Um?"
"I think meeting you is the best reward for me as the 'Son of Fortune'. Don't think of yourself as a destroyer in the future. You are saving this world. You are clearly a protector."
Xiao Changhen was refuting what Yan Baibai had just said while crying.
Xiao Changhen didn't hear Yan Baibai's answer, so he lowered his head again. The person in his arms had his eyes closed and was breathing evenly. It seemed that they had fallen into a deep sleep.
Xiao Changhen put the person into the bed and originally wanted to get on top and sleep together, but then he thought that after getting on top, he would definitely hold the person in his arms. And she said that she sometimes gets tired, so let her have a good rest tonight.
Xiao Changhen stood by the bed for a long time, and finally quietly left the room.
Xiao Changhen's footsteps gradually faded away. After a long time, the breath he left in the room also gradually dissipated. Yan Baibai, who was lying quietly on the bed, had tears oozing from the corners of her eyes and finally disappeared into her hair.
Without opening her eyes, she reached out and lifted the quilt, and her whole body shrank into it.
A slight suppressed sob came from under the quilt, breaking the silence in the room.
"Host, please stop crying..." The system couldn't bear to watch any longer and said, "Or you can just give up that plan."
The system knew that Xiao Changhen’s words just now really touched the host’s heart.
After a long time, Yan Baibai finally calmed down all his emotions.
"System, my plan to save the world is not perfect. The ones who will be most harmed are these male protagonists of the missions. I...can't be so selfish."
Although the word "selfish" has different meanings from different perspectives.
"...Okay, host." The system still intended to respect Yan Baibai's choice, but couldn't help but ask, "Do you need to use an emotion blocker?"
Yan Baibai was silent for a moment, then shook her head. She still wanted to spend the remaining time with the most sincere emotions.
In the quiet room, Yan Baibai finally fell asleep this time.
After a long time, the door of the room suddenly opened gently, and Xiao Changhen walked in. He got on the bed quickly and neatly, pulled open Yan's white quilt, got in, and hugged her tightly in his arms. The two fell asleep together in each other's arms.
