Yu laughed louder, her eyes half-closed as she looked at me with a leisurely air. "You always say that, but when it comes to being reckless, you're still reckless."
I felt completely embarrassed by what You said; it seemed like You said quite a lot... Having been here for so long, I feel like I'm always... holding everyone back...
"You..." I stared at You with a resentful look.
"What's wrong?"
"Are you saying I'm holding you back?"
"No." You held my hand tightly. "Even if you cause a huge disaster, I'll cover for you. You just need to be yourself."
I have to admit, I know I was wrong, but You's words made me happy.
I feel like I have a support system in this world. No matter what I do, You is always there for me, always by my side.
"You, you're so great." I grabbed You's arm and buried myself in her arms.
"What is it now?" You chuckled and patted my back.
Perhaps my tears had dampened You's clothes, making her notice, and she quickly asked, "Why are you crying?"
When You asked that question, I couldn't stop my tears from flowing.
I was fine at first, I was just a little touched and wanted to hug You, but when I heard You say "What happened again?", I couldn't help myself.
"It's nothing." I sniffed, lifted my head from You's embrace, rested my chin on You's chest, and looked at You's face.
"Your eyes are red." You gently wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes.
I still can't believe that such a wonderful girl belongs to me; it all feels like a dream.
I'm terrified that one day I'll wake up and find myself back in my old world, a world without You.
"What's wrong?" You asked, her gentle eyes showing concern as she saw that I was still not better.
"You, will I ever be gone?" I held You's hand tightly.
"How could that be?" You gently comforted me.
"But...but I'm so afraid that one day I'll wake up and I won't be here anymore, and the original Nvxin will be left here."
As I spoke, a trace of sadness flashed across You's eyes. You lowered her eyes and after a long while, she finally spoke, "Don't worry, Nüxin's own seal won't be so easy to break."
But, there's always an unexpected turn of events, isn't there? Perhaps Nv Xin already knew that with my help, Liu Lieyu would never die. And to put it more dramatically, perhaps Liu Lieyu really would suddenly die...
Uncharacteristically, Youyi held me tightly in her arms and murmured, "I won't let you leave."
On the street, You and I hugged each other, and passersby turned around to look at us.
I don't know how long I hugged You. You slowly let go of me, looked seriously into my eyes and said, "We still have time. I..." A resolute look flashed in You's eyes, "I will help you make Nvxin sleep forever and never wake up again."
I stood there stunned for a long time, my mind blank, before finally managing to utter, "Is it okay?"
"Yes, you can believe me, I can definitely do it." At this moment, You's eyes had become much more determined.
"No." I slowly shook my head, biting my lip, but still asked, "I want to know if you can?"
You took a half step back, looking at me with disappointment. You rarely looked at me like that.
I know I shouldn't ask, I know I should just trust You, but I just won't give up until I'm absolutely certain, there are some things I need a clear and unambiguous answer to.
"Can you really abandon Nvxin?" After saying that, I didn't dare to look into You's eyes anymore.
I swear, this is absolutely the last time I'll ever dwell on this issue. Knowing that You gave me a clear answer this time, I will never think about it again.
What I fear most is the sudden silence in the air. After I asked that question, You didn't answer me for a long time.
I don't even need to look up; just thinking about You's disappointed eyes feels like a thousand arrows piercing my heart.
You still didn't reply to me; she remained silent. There had never been such a long silence between You and me before.
The tears I had held back seemed to be welling up again.
As expected? It seems that Nvxin is more important.
My heart sank. In an instant, my thoughts raced through my mind. I even wondered if I had gone too far and shouldn't have forced You to make this choice.
Maybe... maybe I shouldn't have asked. It would have been better to be an ostrich and let things take their course.
Just as I was about to speak, You suddenly reached out and stroked my chin.
"Look at me." You's tone was gentle, and the hand on my chin was gently supporting me without applying any force.
I bit my lip to encourage myself, determined not to cry anymore.
When I looked up, I saw deep, affectionate eyes, so tender they seemed to overflow with tears.
I simply watched You quietly, awaiting You's judgment.
She sighed almost imperceptibly and pulled me into her arms. "What are you thinking about? Why do you always overthink things?"
I leaned against You's chest, the familiar scent of You filling my nostrils.
"You actually asked me if I could give up Nvxin? You've forgotten everything I told you before, haven't you?"
My heart leaped with joy. Could I hear the answer I wanted?
"But..." I pursed my lips, "between you and Nvxin..."
Before I could finish speaking, my mouth was sealed with something soft.
"Is it me?" I mustered my courage and stared intently at You.
“It’s you.” You said, placing another kiss on my forehead. “You should doubt it. This is the you I want right now.”
I gave a barely audible "hmm."
I'm already very happy to hear that.
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to make sure we can be together forever during this time. Leave this to me." You's dark eyes were fixed on me as she spoke.
"good."
"Stop thinking nonsense, and don't ask me such stupid questions again. No one can compare to you, not even myself." You spoke with an extremely devout expression, as if she were talking about something very solemn.
"Okay." I actually wanted to say that you should still love yourself, but I felt that saying that in this situation would ruin the mood, so I held back.
You smiled contentedly, gently patted my head, and her gaze became even more determined.
Yes, I will never bring this up again.
I will never doubt You's sincerity towards me again. I know I tend to overthink, but from today onward, I will never again ponder such foolish questions as whether You loves me or Nvxin.
