She pursed her lips, turned around, and bumped into the arms of the man walking in front of her.
With a tightening around her waist, she regained her footing and looked up.
"Go back and rest, I'll take care of things here."
The man glanced down at her, his fingertips tracing her slightly cool palm.
Rong Shang shook her head and broke free from the other person's warm embrace.
"No, I can't sleep."
She didn't know if it was because the old man had always treated her so well, but the thought of her lying on the operating table at this moment made Rong Shang feel uneasy.
She walked to the edge of the corridor, where a cold wind blew. Rong Shang looked at the pedestrians coming and going below.
After a long while, the cold wind had already chilled her cheeks.
The man's initially burning gaze gradually receded.
With a soft thud, the man's well-defined hand landed on her shoulder.
Rong Shang glanced down at it, remained silent, and after a few seconds she slowly said, "You said you would grant me a wish."
Is this true or false?
She didn't look over, but the man's deep gaze was constantly on her, watching her intently.
Upon hearing her question, the man's dark eyes flashed for a moment. "If you believe it, then it is true."
Oh.
"Yeah?"
Rong Shang glanced back at him, then tilted her head and rested it on his shoulder.
The man's breath caught in his throat as a weight was placed on his shoulder.
He lowered his eyes, his gaze only reaching the top of the other person's head.
"What if I said I wanted all the dead members of the Mu family to come back to life?"
The man froze as the casual words were spoken.
Rong Shang sensed it immediately.
The smile on her lips faded slightly, and she asked, "No?"
Who said that any wish is possible except for not ending the mission?
laugh.
A man's words are deceitful.
"If it doesn't work, it doesn't work," Rong Shang smiled.
The system previously stated that actions that go against one's nature should not be taken.
She's a straightforward person.
But they won't force others.
Anyway, as long as Madam Mu can be saved, that's all that matters.
But……
"Can."
As she straightened up, the man's calm voice came from above. Rong Shang looked up and met the man's dark and deep gaze.
At that moment, her gaze met his, and Rong Shang's heart skipped a beat.
A glint flashed in her eyes, and just as she was about to lower her head, the man suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Enveloped in a warm embrace, Rong Shang's gaze momentarily dazed.
"I can help you fulfill this wish."
only……
Thinking of the consequences of his actions, the man tightened his grip, as if he wanted to use all his strength to meld her into his very bones.
A wave of pain washed over her, and Rong Chang frowned.
She leaned on his shoulder, and just as she turned her head, the man's deep voice came from above, "But, have you thought it through?"
Bringing the dead back to life means starting all over again.
Rong Shang didn't know what he was thinking; she only knew that the man's reaction was very, very strange.
She closed her eyes in thought, and after a few seconds asked, "How will doing this affect you?"
"..."
There was no response.
"Um?"
"No."
He hesitated for so long before answering, and Rong Shang fell silent.
Because she didn't want to owe anyone a favor.
But she couldn't understand why he would help her if it really affected him.
There was clearly only a transaction between them.
