Chapter 78 The Reason



she?

Carry him back?

Thinking of a possibility, Gu Jinzhi shuddered, hurriedly unscrewed the lid of the "toothpaste tube", squeezed it, and drank it all in one gulp.

When Li Wei saw him drink it, she immediately showed a kind expression as if she was saying, "This child is teachable."

"I'm telling you..." She said in a low voice, with a hint of seriousness, "You have to be smarter about this kind of thing in the future."

"Besides you, who else would be so foolish as to rush to the ninth floor to rescue people?"

"That's not it. If you can't win, just run away and make a long-term plan."

At this point, she looked at Gu Jinzhi's incredibly handsome profile, suppressed her envy, and asked, "You didn't come down here alone, did you?"

"Follow the second batch." Gu Jinzhi's answer was concise and to the point.

Maybe because of the nutritional supplement, my throat isn't as dry anymore, but it's still hoarse.

"What about the second group of people?" Li Wei asked again.

Gu Jinzhi was silent for a while, "Either die in battle or retreat."

Li Wei asked again: "Then why don't you retreat with us?"

Gu Jinzhi: “…”

Li Wei turned back and looked at the endless gray-white void half a meter away, breathing intermittently, "I never thought that you, a young master from a wealthy family, would be so loyal to your duties..."

As she spoke, she raised her arm with difficulty, stretched out her bandaged right hand in front of Gu Jinzhi, and raised a thumbs up.

Gu Jinzhi stared gravely at the bandage on Li Weisu's hand, as well as the bloodstains on the surface of the bandage that had seeped out and then dried and darkened.

I wanted to grab her hand to see if the injury was serious.

Just as he was about to raise his hand, he hesitated again.

After this delay, Li Wei withdrew her hand.

Immediately, Gu Jinzhi heard Li Wei's dissatisfied voice, "Mr. Gu, have you remembered these life lessons I taught you?"

Gu Jinzhi suddenly came back to his senses, smiled bitterly and asked, "What about you?"

Hearing him ask this, Li Wei felt proud.

She turned her head and brought her forehead, which was stained with some black blood but still looked beautiful, closer.

Stretch out your left hand and press your index and middle fingers on the two white lotus petals on your forehead.

"Look, look," Li Wei said proudly, "Second level, you know? Second level!"

Gu Jinzhi was first startled by the girl's sudden approach, and then the clear and ethereal fragrance of flowers penetrated his nostrils.

A familiar smell, her smell...

His mind went blank for a long time, until Li Wei became a little impatient and a little discouraged, and then he noticed the changes in Li Wei's forehead.

Two-petal lotus? Level 2?

It’s only been a few days???

Gu Jinzhi felt a little numb all over, and the coldness on his face almost collapsed.

Li Wei waited for a long time but didn't hear his exclamation. She felt a little annoyed and raised her eyes, just in time to see Gu Jinzhi's wide eyes.

[Oh, so I was holding it in... But, that look has quite a lot of emotional value, hehe.]

Li Wei was satisfied, her body softened, and she collapsed back into the chair.

The voice became even lower. "See those octopus monsters outside? I killed them all..."

"You came to the ninth floor, that's called brave but foolish..."

"As for me, I'm called to plan before taking action..."

"Right, I also have the sword spirit. Do you want to fight again when we get back?"

Gu Jinzhi: “…”

What he actually wanted to say was that there was no need for that.

But if I say this out loud, wouldn’t that be the same as admitting defeat to my wife?

Gu Jinzhi considered himself a decent person.

If this gets out, how can I hold my head up high in the circle?

He just kept a straight face, as if he didn't hear anything.

Li Wei felt increasingly exhausted and ignored Gu Jinzhi's reaction.

She looked at the gray void in front of her, a little dazed.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Jinzhi suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice, "Jiang Xue, have you ever regretted it?"

Li Wei didn't react at first.

Jiang Xue? Who is Jiang Xue?

Then, with a sudden start, I remembered.

I am Jiang Xue...

"What do you regret?" she asked weakly.

Gu Jinzhi was silent for a moment, then said, "A genius like you, do you ever regret marrying a... loser like me?"

"Regret?" Li Wei raised her voice a little, as if she had heard something funny. "How could I possibly regret it?"

"You don't know, when I first found out about this, I was so happy I couldn't sleep for several days!"

[He not only cured Li Cheng's illness, but also nurtured him into a talented person, gifted him with a peerless mental method, a unique sword technique, and even included an upgraded theme tour to Western Xinjiang, plus a luxury experience card...]

【Only fools regret it! 】

Gu Jinzhi: “…”

His fists clenched a little tighter.

My heart beat faster when I heard her say that.

Nervousness, hesitation, confusion, joy...

Countless unfamiliar and complex emotions came flooding back.

It made him unable to calm down for a long time.

He doesn't speak.

Li Wei was curious.

"The peak of the Little Perfection isn't useless, right?"

Thinking of her original body's pitiful 53 HP, she curled her lips and said, "Are you being... Versailles when you say that?"

Gu Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, and then he managed to control his emotions. "What... is... Versailles?"

"Don't worry about these details..." Li Wei's hands slumped on the armrest, waving symbolically. "By the way, why didn't you continue to nourish your blood?"

Gu Jinzhi did not answer immediately, but followed Li Wei's gaze and looked at the gray void in front of him.
