Chapter 328 Protecting You Is My Instinct

Lin Qiao's eyes were calm.

"I don't want to learn the forbidden technique you just performed."

"I just want to save Arou."

"I'll ask you one last time, are you sure that if I die, Ah Rou will survive?"

Lin Qiao stared at Xiang Cheng intently.

She is not afraid of death.

If her death could really allow An Rou to live a good life from now on, she would be happy with it.

But she was afraid that even if she died, An Rou would still be like a monster and would have to shed her skin from time to time.

Xiang Cheng likes An Rou now, so of course he can take the trouble to help her change her skin over and over again.

But Xiangcheng is immortal.

In this world, the thing that changes most easily is the human heart.

As time goes by, if Xiang Cheng falls in love with someone new and no longer cares about An Rou, what will she do when her skin and flesh rot?

Xiang Cheng looked at Lin Qiao, his tone and eyes were very firm, "Yes, except that she will not die, in other respects, she is the same as a normal person."

In other words, as long as Lin Qiao died, he could give her skin to Arou.

It can also hide it from the underworld, so she doesn't have to worry about Arou every day, and she doesn't have to worry that the underworld will notice that she is still in the world.

Lin Qiao has a close relationship with Arou, and she has Arou's aura. Xiang Cheng has a way to confuse the judgment of the underworld.

Lin Qiao smiled and closed her eyes.

With this answer, she felt relieved.

"Okay, go ahead."

Xiang Cheng's eyes were somewhat complicated, as if he had not expected that someone would go to such lengths for his best friend.

But despite his surprise, he did not show any sign of softening his heart from beginning to end.

Xiang Cheng had a knife in his hand. Without any hesitation, he stabbed Lin Qiao in the heart with the tip of the knife.

Lin Qiao's eyelashes trembled.

It's true that she is not afraid of death and is willing to die for An Rou.

But she was afraid of pain.

However, the expected pain did not come.

Lin Qiao opened her eyes, only to find that An Rou, who was half a head shorter than her, stretched out her slender hand and firmly grasped Xiang Cheng's wrist.

The hand that held the knife could not move at all.

Lin Qiao's eyes were frozen, tears oozed from his eyes without warning, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Xiang Cheng's pupils constricted.

"Arou, you..."

"You don't remember her?"

There was a hint of grievance in Xiangcheng's tone.

An Rou has a good personality and is nice and friendly to everyone. Basically, there is no one who has interacted with her who dislikes her.

This also led to some short-sighted people who, relying on her kindness, would mistakenly think that she was interested in them.

For example, the former colleague who killed Arou and had some physical disabilities.

Ah Rou saw that he had difficulty walking, so she helped pick up his pen twice when it fell.

He was so shameless that he thought she liked him. No matter how many times Arou emphasized that she had a boyfriend, he acted like he didn't understand what she was saying. He just thought Arou liked him. In the end, he turned love into hate and killed Anrou.

Xiang Cheng fell in love with An Rou because of her gentleness and kindness and wanted to stay with her forever.

But he also didn't like her being gentle and kind to everyone, especially to Lin Qiao.

An Rou is so nice to Lin Qiao that it makes him jealous.

So when he resurrected An Rou, he had some selfish thoughts.

He made her forget about the people and things in the past.

Let him be the only one left in her memory.

He completely erased all the footage related to Lin Qiao.

But why, why even though Lin Qiao no longer exists in An Rou's world, when she sees Lin Qiao in danger, she still instinctively protects her?

"Acheng."

An Rou turned her head and stared at Xiang Cheng closely.

She looked him in the eyes and said firmly, "Let her go."

Lin Qiao's eyes were red, her voice was choked with sobs, and she even cried a little, "Arou, I won't leave."

"I'm afraid of death, and I'm afraid of pain, but I'm more afraid of living without you."

She had said a long time ago that as long as her death could bring peace and tranquility, she would be willing and happy to do so.

"You may not remember me, but what I said then still counts, and it still counts now."

An Rou still held Xiang Cheng's wrist, shook her head with a determined look, and said one word to Lin Qiao, "Let's go!"

She didn't remember Lin Qiao, nor did she remember what kind of bond there was between them.

I can't remember how many seasons they've gone through.

I can’t remember how many times we had quarrels together, or how many times we watched fireworks together.

But she knew that she didn't want to see Lin Qiao get into trouble in front of her.

Even though she is now a monster that is neither human nor ghost and should not have human thoughts, she still does not want Lin Qiao to be in any danger.

Xiang Cheng's eyes were red, "An Rou!"

At this time, he gritted his teeth and glared at Lin Qiao fiercely.

"What do you rely on?"

"What on earth do you rely on?"

Why would An Rou, who had clearly forgotten her, completely forgotten her, still risk her life to protect her?

What is it about Lin Qiao that makes An Rou miss him so much?

Lin Qiao's dull eyes gradually became clear. She forced a smile and wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Don't worry about what I do."

"I just want to ask you one question. Do you still mean what you just said?"

"Xiang Cheng, are you still willing to save Arou?"

"Of course!"

Xiang Cheng answered without hesitation, his words hitting the ground with a loud noise.

He never wavered in his determination to keep Anrou forever.

At this moment, An Rou found it difficult to understand what they were saying.

But she managed to get the general idea.

It seemed that if she continued to live, the girl in front of her would die.

An Rou held Xiang Cheng's wrist tightly, so tightly that a conspicuous red mark was left on it.

"I don't want it!"

"I don't want her to die!"

She shouted this almost hysterically.

I don’t know if it’s because even if An Rou has forgotten Lin Qiao, her body and brain will instinctively want to protect her.

Or maybe it was because she was gentle and kind by nature, and couldn't bear to see anyone get into trouble in front of her, even if the other person was just a stranger.

Xiang Cheng admitted that he was jealous of Lin Qiao.

He wanted Lin Qiao to leave, perhaps not just because he wanted to resurrect An Rou.

Perhaps there is another possibility, that he thought that as long as Lin Qiao disappeared from this world, An Rou would focus all her attention on him.

But no matter what his purpose is.

At this moment, his goal is the same as Lin Qiao's.

He and Lin Qiao both wanted An Rou to live well, safely and healthily.

Xiang Cheng forced a smile on his face and his eyes fell on An Rou.

He said, "An Rou, it's too late for you to stop her. We had already completed the ceremony before she arrived."

"Even if she died now, she wouldn't live to see tomorrow."

An Rou was stunned.

Taking advantage of her dazed look, Xiang Cheng glared at her and raised his hand to knock her unconscious.

The sharp knife in his hand stabbed towards Lin Qiao cleanly and decisively.
