Time was limited, and Ning Xi'er didn't have time to dawdle, so she spoke directly:
"I didn't mean to hide it from you..."
Xie Zhun slowly raised his head, his eyes clear and bright, and listened attentively to Ning Xi'er's story.
It was clearly the truth, but for some reason, seeing Xie Zhun's clear and innocent gaze, Ning Xi'er spoke naturally:
"I admit, I had ulterior motives at first, in case you treated me badly..."
In case our cooperation doesn't go smoothly, I can always...
Xie Zhun raised an eyebrow. "Anytime?"
His voice, though not angry, carried an imposing authority, immediately igniting Ning Xi'er's alarm bells.
She quickly explained, "That's not important! Back then, we didn't know each other well, we didn't know each other's backgrounds..."
She softened her voice, trying to gloss over the matter, and continued to explain, "Actually, I've told you everything else."
"If it weren't for trust, I wouldn't have told you about the entire space and even brought you inside..."
In fact, Xie Zhun could understand Ning Xi'er's feelings for him without her saying anything.
The detoxification and treatment of his leg revealed the secrets of the space to him from the very beginning.
Including plans for family...
As for future plans, they were already in each other's plans long ago.
But the thought that she possessed such terrifying superpowers...
If she had even a slight thought, she would have left herself a way out, so she could easily leave him...
The thought alone made my heart ache.
Even his appearance seemed completely unconcerned.
But he still hasn't stood up...
Even if he could stand up, he couldn't give her a stable life; he would have to work tirelessly and constantly defend against danger...
Therefore, he couldn't justify questioning her, stopping her, or demanding anything of her...
So, all I can do is sulk and suffer in silence.
Reason told him that even if Ning Xi'er left herself a way out, it was a smart move.
With her exceptional abilities, she could easily take care of her mother and brother. The world is vast, and she could lead the Shen family, enjoying endless wealth thanks to the resources within her spatial dimension...
But my emotions also tell me how reluctant I am to let go.
For the first time in my life, I felt greed for someone, wanting to keep them by my side more than a throne...
But when the other person is too dazzling, you're just a cripple who can't walk...
Then they would feel inferior and think they were too selfish.
Ning Xi'er clearly felt that Xie Zhun's aura gradually weakened.
She pouted, feigning anger, and said, "Just because of a misunderstanding, you're going to ignore me?"
Xie Zhun brushed a stray hair from her forehead, his smile weak, "How could I dare neglect you..."
We're too busy to even notice...
Ning Xi'er smiled, as if she had received the candy she had expected; her smile was genuine and somewhat sweet.
She held Xie Zhun's hand, "You are wonderful, a rare find in this world..."
The longer I spend with you, the more I'm drawn to your intelligence. You also complimented me on being smart, didn't you?
But you see, I still often need you to remind me. Without your reminders, I might often have to resort to reactive measures...
But because of you, I can always achieve twice the results with half the effort.
She spoke sincerely, and Xie Zhun had heard many words of praise since he was a child...
But at this moment, it feels exceptionally comforting, and I don't feel like I'm being treated perfunctorily.
He couldn't help but take the initiative, holding Ning Xi'er's soft hand in his palm and slowly kneading it.
Ning Xi'er continued, "I really can't imagine where I could find such an outstanding person after leaving you..."
"If that's the case, why should I go through all that trouble to try and escape?"
Hearing these words, Xie Zhun felt his heart, which had been cold, gradually warm up and become burning hot.
He was precocious and exceptionally intelligent as a child, but in front of the woman he liked...
He's just a person, nothing more.
Judging by the time, Ning Xi'er offered a final word of comfort, "I know your journey has been far from easy..."
But I hope that the person I set my sights on will never doubt themselves, no matter what. Because...
To doubt yourself is to doubt my judgment!
