Ruanruan was still thinking that if she could contact someone else and have them help the adults with this task, the adults wouldn't have to be in such a difficult position.
"Ruan Ruan, I know you want to help me, thank you. But we still have to do our mission. This world has exploded. Although we can go back in time to the moment when Jing Zhong was undergoing his tribulation, the explosion of a small world will cause many chain reactions, and many lives will be affected."
It will also take more time to maintain. Many of the smaller worlds have already experienced unexpected events, which is why you exist. This task cannot be abandoned.” This is why Wan Ge ultimately accepted the task.
Because she knew from the beginning that it wouldn't just affect this small world.
"I understand, good luck, sir."
…
…
"Why are you drinking alone here all by yourself?" Xie Nanyan asked with a smug look on his face, as if something had happened that made him very happy.
In stark contrast to him, Jingzhong appeared deeply troubled.
"Xie Nanyan, I... I feel so strange towards the little princess." Jing Zhong's fingertips touched his heart, and he always felt that there were many emotions that were beyond his control.
Xie Nanyan picked up the wine pot, poured himself a bowl, and before even taking a sip, asked, "What do you mean?"
Jing Zhong frowned slightly: "I always feel that every time my heart races for her, I can't help but feel disgusted by her. It's as if I like her a lot one second and hate her the next."
Xie Nanyan downed his drink in one gulp, then suddenly exclaimed, "Jing Zhong! You bought counterfeit alcohol?!"
Even the young general dares to cheat? Does the person selling the wine have no regard for their life?
Jingzhong lay down on the ground, looking at the starry sky: "I never drink alcohol, I get drunk."
However, he always used wine jars, and to outsiders, he was a general who could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, just like other soldiers who kept company with strong liquor in the cold frontier.
Xie Nanyan spoke softly, "Jingzhong, have you ever been drunk? When you're drunk, you often lose control, amplify your emotions, and show your truest self. Want to try? Maybe you'll find out whether you really like her or not."
As Xie Nanyan said this, he took out a flat flask from his waist: "Try it, this contains my father-in-law's treasured liquor that he has kept for many years."
Jingzhong took it and drank two sips. A moment later, he subconsciously let go.
Xie Nanyan reacted very quickly, grabbing the flat pot in an instant; otherwise, it would have definitely fallen to the ground.
"Jingzhong? You... you're already drunk?" He only took two sips! He almost choked and threw up after the first sip.
Jingzhong simply lay on the ground with his eyes closed, his cheeks flushed from being drunk.
"..." Xie Nanyan had never seen Jingzhong like this in his life. At this moment, he was as obedient as a kitten, not at all like the cold-faced general in his memory.
"Jingzhong, wake up?" Xie Nanyan patted Jingzhong's face to wake him up. How could he just fall asleep? Didn't he want to see what was in Jingzhong's heart?
"Hmm?" Jingzhong mumbled a "hmm" in his sleep, then slowly sat up, patting his head and shaking it.
"So, do you like the little princess?" Xie Nanyan got straight to the point.
Still dazed, Jingzhong instinctively replied in a low voice, "I like it..."
But before Xie Nanyan could ask his second question, Jing Zhong added, "You can't like him..."
