Chapter 34 She felt as if she had been through a lifetime before she heard Si Ruxu say...
Hearing Si Ruxu say that he loved her again, she felt as if she were in another world. The throbbing in her memory was erased by time. She felt her own calm heartbeat and pursed her lips slightly.
She didn't believe in Si Ruxu's love, nor did she need it.
"Do you really love me? Or is it because I've become stronger and the novelty of the past is gone?" Si Qi's tone was very calm. "I don't want to see your proof anymore, nor do I want to guess your feelings."
"Like you said, we could have been partners. We're just... not suitable."
In fact, at a certain point in time, they were made for each other, but now it is different. If a crack appears in the ground, the crack may close after a few hundred years, but the trace of its existence is like a scar kissed by time.
It can’t be worn away, it’s always there.
Si Ruxu bit her pale lower lip gently for a long time before she pleaded in a weak voice, "Partner, can I follow you?"
Just follow Si Qi, and stay within her sight. She didn't dare to ask for anything more.
She would rather Si Qi hated her a little than now, distancing himself from her like a stranger.
It would definitely be more convenient to bring Si Ruxu along. Si Ruxu has spatial abilities, healing abilities, and lightning abilities. Originally, these abilities were squeezed into the ability core, which might have been limited, but now, all the meridians in her body are storing these abilities.
She can attack or defend, and no one can touch her in the end times.
But Si Qi inexplicably didn't want to take her with him, and she didn't want to have any contact with Si Ruxu anymore.
When she hated Si Ruxu the most, she wanted to tie her to her side day and night, make her voice hoarse with sobs, make her beg for mercy, call her name softly in her ear, and say that she would never leave.
Time had passed, but when she looked at Si Ruxu, she was still very beautiful, with her long, thick eyelashes drooping, as fragile as a butterfly about to spread its wings. She was pale, like that rainy night, but Si Qi no longer had the urge to hold her close.
"You have your own things to do." Si Qi shook her head as a refusal. She originally thought that Si Ruxu would give up, but she didn't expect her to speak in a hurry.
"No!" After a few breaths, she added, "I've finished my work. The rest doesn't matter. I want to follow you."
Her wish was just to end the apocalypse. She no longer had a team and didn't want to go to the research institute. She just wanted to be with Si Qi. There were too many separations and mistakes in the apocalypse. There were often many people who said goodbye with a smile in the morning and received news of the other person's death in the afternoon.
Now there are more and more changes. Even though she knows Si Qi's ability, she is still afraid that one time will be the last time they meet. She is also afraid that she will die on the road, and even the last time they meet is a luxury.
Si Qi still shook his head, "I don't need you to follow me, do you understand? There are some things I'd rather do alone. I only believe in what I do. If you follow me, it will only bother me."
After saying that, she didn't even look at Si Ruxu's pale face, and tore through space to teleport out.
Her wounds had not been treated yet, but she had no medicine and little strength, and her superpowers had not recovered much. A strong sense of sleepiness surged up after this teleportation.
She felt that something was wrong with her situation, and barely found a safe and secluded place. She leaned against the corner, holding the only two remaining superpower cores in her hands, and fell asleep.
The moon was at the top of the mountain, and the moonlight fell on Si Qi's body. As time passed, the moonlight on her slowly faded away. Finally, when the moon completely set, a very light shadow quietly parted the grass and saw the sleeping Si Qi.
She carefully lit a lamp and searched in the grass for a long time without stopping. Several deep and shallow bloodstains were left on her arms, but she seemed not to feel any pain and did not care.
She took out several kinds of medicine from the space, and looked at them one by one in the dim light. Finally, she only kept a few bottles of the best ones. She opened a bottle and carefully dragged away the coat of the unconscious Si Qi.
The wounds on Si Qi's body were so severe that the flesh and clothes were almost stuck together. Si Ruxu's fingers retracted slightly and her movements became lighter. Even so, Si Qi was still humming in his sleep.
She moved closer and heard Si Qi repeatedly and quietly crying out in pain.
She was not mistaken, Si Qi was afraid of pain, very afraid.
But she was very strong. Even when she was cut and beaten, she just stood up without saying a word. Until one day, Si Qi was extremely tired and fell on the road, hitting the corner of the wall.
There was clearly no bleeding, and even the bruise was only a shallow one. Si Qi didn't say a word when he got up, but after returning home, he sat there twitching for the entire afternoon.
At that time, while she was cursing Si Qi's boss, she was blowing her hair gently, applying cold compresses to her, and applying medicine to her, staying with her for the entire afternoon.
She thought that she was reluctant to let Si Qi get seriously injured again and again in the past, and she was reluctant now, but she almost killed Si Qi when she didn't love him anymore.
So, not loving someone is sometimes something to feel sorry for.
After applying the medicine, green energy flowed out from her fingertips and gently stayed on the wounds. In a short while, new pink flesh grew on the wounds. Si Qi's slightly frown finally relaxed, and her breathing became steady and light.
Si Ruxu took off Si Qi's tattered clothes and saw her newly grown flesh and the scars left by the previous carelessness. She could not think of anything else but felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She took out a set of clean clothes from the space and gently changed them for Si Qi.
After doing all this, Si Ruxu wiped the sweat from her forehead. The long journey without rest had almost exhausted her strength. Now she felt even more tired after all this trouble.
Her feet felt as if they were filled with lead. She looked at Si Qi's peaceful sleeping face in a daze. As if possessed by a ghost, she gently leaned against him and hugged him. After a while, she turned over and let Si Qi lie on top of her, hoping that she would feel more comfortable.
A glimmer of sunlight peeked through the mountainside, and Si Ruxu, unable to hold on any longer, fell asleep. There was a sweet afterglow in her dream.
When Si Qi woke up, the sun had already set. She had a very sound and deep sleep. She felt that the wound that had been aching slightly before had healed completely.
She stretched comfortably, and a soft moan came to her ears. The ending tone was slightly hooked, revealing a bit of impatience.
She lowered her head stiffly, only to find that she was almost sleeping on Si Ruxu. The person below her was half lying between dead wood and stones, his eyelashes trembling slightly. When he opened his eyes, his amber eyes were filled with a thick mist as thick as rice grains, and he looked at her softly.
"Are you awake? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" His tone was still a little tired, with the laziness of someone who had just woken up.
Si Qi's brain completely shut down. How could she have deserved that one day she could sleep in the wild with Si Ruxu as a cushion?
Si Ruxu is grumpy when getting up in the morning. She always has to be called many times to get up. If others call her, she will be ignored for at least half an hour.
Even at that time, when she called Si Ruxu, she would kiss, hug and cuddle her to coax her into raptures, and then she would pretend to have amnesia to maintain the image of Miss Si.
At this moment, Si Ruxu looked at her, completely stunned, and touched her forehead, worry revealed in his amber eyes: "What's wrong? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
After saying that, his fingers glowed with green power, and he was about to check again. As soon as he touched Si Qi's forehead, he was grabbed by another slender hand, and Si Qi got up from Si Ruxu's body.
The close-fitting bodies separated, bringing a little coolness.
Si Ruxu's lower abdomen shrank slightly, and she was a little attached to the warmth of Si Qi's body.
"Didn't you say you didn't need to follow?" Because his wound was healed by Si Ruxu, and because he saw the darkness under Si Ruxu's eyes, Si Qi's tone was softer than yesterday, but there was a faint sense of boredom that he couldn't suppress.
Si Ruxu had never been treated like this before. Her eyes gradually turned red, but she still looked straight at her and smiled gently: "I'm worried about your injury."
I'm just worried that in the apocalypse, even a minor injury could result in loss of life, let alone the wounds all over Si Qi's body.
"I will be fine on my own. Thank you this time, but it won't be necessary in the future." Si Qi said calmly. There was indeed no need. The second superpower in her body would save her life, but it would take a long time, and the minor injury still had to wait for healing.
This has happened many times before.
Si Ruxu felt a sharp pain in her heart. "I can cure it faster and without any sequelae... Si Qi."
She's willing. Just follow her.
But now she is like a headless fly. The base can no longer be trusted, and she does not approve of the path Si Luoheng has taken. Si Qi is both the key to breaking the deadlock and the person she loves dearly.
In the past, every time she went out, she would make careful arrangements for her funeral, prepared to die at any time. That was because she understood better than anyone else that the person standing in front of her today might disappear here tomorrow.
So she didn't want to be separated from Si Qi. She searched for him anxiously and was panicked every moment before she saw Si Qi, fearing that she would see a lifeless body.
"That's not necessary." Si Qi herself didn't realize that she was frowning in avoidance. She had never been so mean to anyone before.
"Si Ruxu, you told me not to change my original plan just because of a little help from others. You are not in my plan, and you will never be in the future. I hope you can respect yourself and respect my choice."
Si Qi lowered his eyes to look at Si Ruxu. The woman in front of him had her fingertips pinched until they turned white. Her amber eyes stared at her blankly, with a surge of discomfort in her eyes.
Her already slightly red eyes spread visibly to the ends of her eyes, tears gradually filled up her eyes, and then fell drop by drop.
"But I'll feel so bad." Si Ruxu whispered softly, her voice broken and a little soft from crying, "Then you go your way, I'll be fine and go my own way."
Si Qi turned around and left without any reluctance.
Behind her, Si Ruxu carefully depicted the outline of her back with sticky eyes.
Tears were her last weapon, but it seemed that Si Qi really didn't love her anymore. She was not affected.
What she left unsaid was that being with Si Qi was the path she had chosen.
