Chapter 257 Love is Seeing
Qiao Susu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It wasn't that there was anything shameful between her and Lan Ze, but what she was going to do next might be a little sudden.
She was about to ask Karl to leave, but she heard Lan Ze say in a very good-tempered tone, "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter where we talk." He looked at Qiao Suisui with his empty blue eyes and said gently, "If it can reassure him, I'll do anything. As long as I can talk to you for a few words, that's all."
These words made Carl frown immediately, but Qiao Susu was the first to laugh.
Karl saw her smiling and shaking her head, puzzled: “What did he say to make you laugh like this?”
She hadn't noticed it before, but now when she listens to Lan Ze's words, she always smells a strong tea flavor. I wonder if this can be considered a kind of growth? She can even taste tea.
Qiao Susu wiped away the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes. She felt that telling this reason in public would make Lan Ze a little embarrassed, so she finally found an excuse to get away with it.
Then she took out the five senses amplification potion from the system and handed it to Lan Ze: "Drink it."
Lan Ze took it and drank it without hesitation for a second.
"Aren't you afraid of what poison I'm giving you?"
Lan Ze just looked at her and smiled, saying, "I'm afraid, but I can drink it too."
"Why?"
"Because you gave it to me."
Karl tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk from the side and commented: "Love-brained."
Qiao Susu smiled and glanced at Karl, feeling that he didn't seem to have the right to criticize others.
Then, she said to Lan Ze seriously: "This is a potion that can restore your senses. Lan Ze, are you ready to welcome a brand new world?"
Lan Ze was stunned and his hand holding the medicine tube began to tremble.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes." Qiao Suisui looked at him seriously and said, "The effect of the medicine will take effect within two hours. There are no side effects and no time limit."
Lan Ze's heart almost jumped out of his mouth!
He was so excited that he was a little incoherent: "Then, then I can see you!"
"Not only can you see, you can also smell the flowers, taste flavors, and feel pain. You no longer need to rely on mental power to hear and see. I didn't give it to you before because I wasn't sure of the effect, and I didn't want to make you happy in vain."
This sensory amplification potion was the reward she received in the first timeline. At that time, she actually considered giving it to Lan Ze, but too many things happened later, and she was determined to go back and change things, so she had to wait for a completely stable timeline before giving it to him.
Now, she can finally make up for Lan Ze's shortcomings.
Lan Ze obviously hadn't recovered from the shock of this huge surprise. He said slowly and doubtfully, "Sui Sui, why... I... I..."
He felt that this was so significant that he couldn't offer any thanks or return. He stood there at a loss for a moment, his eyes filled with mist.
Although he didn't say it, Qiao Sui Sui immediately sensed his almost guilty mood, so she deliberately let out a long sigh of relief and said, "That's great. Giving you this potion really fulfilled a very big wish of mine. I can finally get a good night's sleep. Thank you, Lan Ze."
"Thank you. Me?"
"Yes, do you still remember that when we came back from the small building, Zong Fang did something very excessive to you?"
Lan Ze looked a little dazed, then realized she was referring to the time when Zong Fang broke his leg.
"Although your leg is healed now, my guilt hasn't diminished. Now that I can help you like this, my guilt is finally much less, so thank you."
Hearing this, Lan Ze was completely speechless. The moisture in his eyes turned into heavy tears. At this moment, Lan Ze smiled and cried silently.
He looked at Qiao Susu, his eyes filled with gratitude, emotion and helplessness.
What kind of delicate and exquisite heart must one have to give him such a great favor while taking care of his emotions and not letting him feel embarrassed or pitied at all.
Lan Ze lowered his head, tears falling one by one and hitting the surface of his shoes.
This is the person he will love even if he is so paranoid that he goes astray.
He fell in love with such a good person, how could he destroy her happiness? How could he maneuver between her men and make her feel embarrassed?
Lan Ze realized that after this moment, all the plans he had envisioned would be impossible to carry out.
Qiao Sui Sui didn't know about his complicated emotional journey, she just felt that she had finally repaid some of Lan Ze's unyielding search for her in this way. She knew very well that her feelings for him were just friendship, and since she couldn't repay them in other ways, she decided to use this method to make up for it.
She recalled the conversation between Lan Ze and herself at the bottom of the Ruin Eye Canyon in the first timeline.
Qiao Suisui raised her eyes and said to Lan Ze with a relieved smile, "You've done very well. You've done everything you could. There are no regrets. Lan Ze, let it go."
Lan Ze stared at her intently. This wasn't the first time he'd heard her say this. The last time she'd said it was over a decade ago, when Qiao Sui Sui had come to question him about the rift between Zong Fang and her. She'd said the same thing back then. He'd wanted to let it go, but at the time, he felt only a sharp pain in his heart, a growing resentment that tormented him.
However, today, at this moment, when he heard her say this again, Lan Ze felt a sudden sense of relief in his heart, tears rolling down his cheeks. But what moved him was not the word "let go", but her words "you have done very well".
It turns out that from the beginning until now, what he wanted was to be seen.
The essence of love is seeing.
Regardless of whether this love is about love between men and women, Lan Ze felt that his heart was greatly comforted at this moment.
Because he is seen, he does not need to compete for superiority in the relationship;
Because he is seen, he doesn't have to be someone to her or have to have a result.
When she clearly saw his sensitivity, his loss, his imperfections, and his persistence, from that second on, he suddenly felt that his world had become wider.
Qiao Suisui saw Lan Ze's brows, which had been slightly worried, relax, and the sadness in his eyes turned into a moving light. He had been crying, but as his tears flowed, they turned into a tearful smile. She also laughed, and they looked at each other in the corridor. Neither of them spoke, but she knew that Lan Ze had let it go.
Karl, who had been dissatisfied, now leaned against the pillar with his arms folded. He noticed the change in the atmosphere and was unusually quiet, not saying anything sarcastic. Karl's eyes were fixed on Qiao Suisui, and seeing her smile, he unconsciously curled the corners of his lips.
The two finally said goodbye to Lan Ze. When they arrived at the living room, all the cubs were already waiting nervously.
Harvis saw Qiao Susu at the door. She was originally lying on the sofa with her back not straight, but she jumped up the next second and stood there like a soldier.
"Mom, Mom."
The other children also saluted Qiao Susu, their voices either young or tender, all sincere and serious.
Qiao Suisui's back was a little stiff.
After four timelines, she is still not used to being a mother, and a mother of so many children.
Seeing that she was more nervous than the children, Karl was touched by her cuteness, and smiled and whispered in her ear: "Why are you so nervous?"
"I'm not very good at it." She felt guilty.
Karl's eyes rolled, and he smiled, and put his big hand around her waist. The warmth of his palm made Qiao Suisui tremble. He only heard the man's low and ambiguous voice in his ear: "I'll give you extra lessons tonight."
