How could Xiao Xi, who had completely frozen her heart and felt an almost physiological aversion and wariness towards everyone, possibly fall in love with a man?
Jiang Wu looked at the extremely excited Blood Rose, whose eyes were filled with disbelief, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Am I really that bad?
Is it really that unbelievable to you that your sister likes me?
Jiang Wu said earnestly, "Don't interrupt me, let me finish! Lately, she..."
"...She delivers all three of my meals on time. If there's anything I don't like, she definitely won't send any more mutated ants next time. And if I eat a lot, she'll definitely send even more next time. I don't have to do anything; she'll arrange everything perfectly..."
Jiang Wu recounted the details of his interactions with the Insect Woman over the past few days.
"Today I asked her directly if she liked me. She neither admitted nor denied it. I thought she was shy, so I just grabbed her hand. Even under these circumstances, she didn't refuse."
"But I didn't expect..."
Jiang Wu paused, considering how to say it.
But Blood Rose pressed on urgently, "And then?"
Jiang Wu said earnestly, "She said, 'Let me go, I'm not clean.'"
The words “I am not clean” pierced the heart of Blood Rose like the sharpest ice pick.
Blood Rose trembled violently.
Her face turned deathly pale instantly, and even her originally bright red lips slowly lost their color.
Jiang Wu continued earnestly, "Although I'm not a smooth talker in love, I can tell whether someone likes me or not. Xiao Xi definitely likes me!"
"So I hugged her directly and told her that I didn't care about those things. I saw her crying, and I thought she would accept me, but she eventually broke free."
At this point, Jiang Wu stared intently at Blood Rose and said sincerely, "You are her own sister. I want to know what exactly happened to her?"
"What kind of past made her, despite being moved, choose to push him away and remain frozen in her heart?"
"What should I do to make her truly accept me, instead of forever remaining in those painful memories?"
Blood Rose stared blankly at Jiang Wu.
Her mind was in complete chaos.
The Xiao Xi that Jiang Wu described was completely different from the cold and resolute younger sister she remembered.
She also knew that if she really did what Jiang Wu suggested, Xiao Xi would have to do it.
Given Xiaoxi's personality, she doesn't just have a slight liking for Jiang Wu; she's probably already deeply in love with him!
What if... what if Jiang Wu could really become the light that illuminates Xiao Xi's dark world?
What if... this powerful, sincere man who seems to genuinely care about Xiaoxi could untie the knot in his sister's heart?
Blood Rose's lips trembled, and tears welled up without warning, rolling down her cheeks in large drops.
She didn't make a sound, she just wept silently.
Those tears contained so much.
He felt deep sorrow for his sister, self-loathing, and fear of the past.
And the joy of his younger sister actually falling in love with a man.
Suddenly, Blood Rose spoke up, her voice choked with emotion, "It was about the second month after the disaster. One time, we took pity on a woman and saved her, but we never expected that the next day, she would bring five women to our hiding place."
At this point, Blood Rose's body began to tremble uncontrollably, as if she had returned to that nightmarish afternoon.
"Xiaoxi and I tried to escape, but they blocked all the roads. They grabbed us, and we struggled desperately, but it was no use... there were just too many of them..."
Blood Rose's tears flowed freely.
She covered her face, sobbing uncontrollably, "I...I was terrified. All I could do was cry and scream...I was so useless..."
"Xiao Xi... Xiao Xi is different. She's stronger than me. She kept fighting back. She even bit the leader's hand, leaving it bloody and mangled. The leader was furious..."
"They vented all their anger on Xiaoxi... They ignored me and went to hold her down... They... They..."
She couldn't go on, only heart-wrenching sobs remained.
Jiang Wu's heart sank to the bottom, his fists clenched involuntarily, and his nails dug deeply into his palms.
Although he was mentally prepared, hearing Blood Rose describe it so painfully still filled him with a surge of anger and a piercing heartache.
He couldn't imagine what kind of hell on earth Song Lingxi, who was just an ordinary girl at the time, had gone through.
Although he had long witnessed the ugliness of humanity in this post-apocalyptic world.
But when such ugliness happens to a woman he cares about, he is especially angry!
Jiang Wu took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "Stop crying! What happened next?"
Blood Rose finally stopped crying. She murmured, "After a while, Xiao Xi suddenly became an evolved being and killed all six women. Moreover, their deaths were horrific. Xiao Xi was like a madwoman then..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Wu was stunned.
He interrupted Blood Rose, asking incredulously, "Six women? You mean six women? Not men?"
Blood Rose wiped away her tears and nodded.
Jiang Wu swallowed hard and couldn't help but ask again, "Besides this, has Xiao Xi experienced any other abuse?"
Blood Rose shook her head and said, "From then on, she became an evolved being, and no one dared to disrespect her. Moreover, her personality completely changed."
“If she was a bit cold before, after that she became as cold as ice. She would talk to me but hardly interact with anyone else. She would feel very uncomfortable if anyone else got close to her.”
"She was extremely wary of everyone, and because of that, no one could outwit her."
Upon receiving a definitive answer, Jiang Wu was completely dumbfounded.
On the way from the foggy area to the Dragon Base, I thought about whether it was one man or two men.
Even three men or a group of men!
After all, Xiaoxi's looks and figure are really stunning, so it's normal for a normal man to have designs on her.
But I never imagined it would be several women!
If that's the case, then wouldn't the little games I sometimes let Gan Wei, Nangong Wenyao, or Ning Chuxia play be considered as me cheating on myself?
this......
Jiang Wu's heart stirred when he saw Blood Rose's sorrowful face and silent tears.
Perhaps men and women think differently?
To put it another way, if it were you, and the other party were several men...
It's really terrifying, extremely terrifying!
You'll also feel like you're unclean and dirty!
Therefore, it's understandable why Xiaoxi acted that way.
Because she genuinely felt that she was unclean.
