The desire to live reflects the darkest side of his heart.
Just like he said at the beginning, he would survive no matter what the cost.
After wiping away her tears, Xie Zhiyi returned to her room.
Seeing He Wenxiu fiddling with something, he asked, "What are you doing?"
"Make sure the formation is stable enough to facilitate soul exchange."
Xu Jing paused, and hugged his lower back with both hands. Then Xie Zhiyi put his head on his shoulder and whispered, "Brother, you like me, don't you?"
"What do you want to say?" Xu Jing stopped what he was doing and pulled the octopus off his body.
When you get closer, you can see his slightly red eyes. It's obvious that he has been crying outside.
"I..." Xie Zhiyi thought that such things could not be expressed in words and had to be expressed through actions.
He tore off his clothes without hesitation, bit his lip and looked at him, saying: "Do it?"
This. What's going on?
Xu Jing widened his eyes and saw something he shouldn't have seen.
It's so exciting right from the start, isn't it too fast to get straight to the point?
"Are you crazy?"
Xu Jing picked up the fallen bed sheet and draped it over him. "Wear it properly, or you'll catch a cold."
Xie Zhiyi sneered: "You can't do it? If you can't, I'll let you experience what a man tastes like."
Having said that, he extended his hand without hesitation.
Xie Zhiyi unbuttoned his clothes and his eyes fell on the eight abdominal muscles.
"Do Taoists also have abdominal muscles?" In order to verify his statement, Xie Zhiyi touched it with his hand, and it was real, not the muscle suit seen on TV.
"Have you had enough of this?" Xu Jing pressed the man to the edge of the bed. "Just sit still and don't think about anything."
“Brother, you…”
"Shh." Xu Jing covered his mouth and said helplessly: "Can you think of something else, little ancestor? I really don't have time."
Xie Zhiyi rolled his eyes and made a contemptuous gesture.
I looked down, but it was no use at all, there was no movement at all.
"Brother, if I switch bodies with you, will I still be as useless as you?"
What's useless?
Xu Jing understood immediately after seeing his eyes. His face darkened instantly. "What are you thinking about?"
"You are useless." He not only thought it, but also said it bluntly.
There were no outsiders present, and no cameras like Lao Jin were in the way. Why not do it?
"Do you dislike me?" Xie Zhiyi was about to pull the bed sheet again to show him some strange things.
Xu Jing couldn't stand it any longer, so he held him in his arms to prevent him from moving around and having wild thoughts.
"Listen, I don't want to touch you not because I dislike you, nor because of any other messed up reasons. It's because I'm thinking about how to make you feel better."
Xu Jing patted his head and said, "Soul transfer will be very painful, and it will take some time to adapt. I hope you can live a good life for the rest of your life."
Xie Zhiyi's nose felt sore and tears rolled down her cheeks again. "I..."
"It's better to be selfish. I know you want to give yourself to me so that the burden on your heart can be relieved, but I don't want to do that."
Xu Jing said, "I will shoulder the Xie family's debt for you. I just want you to be free and live for yourself once."
"I don't like you, is it worth it for you to do this?"
"What's worth it?" Xu Jing touched his head, and the tenderness in his eyes was the best gift to thank Xie Zhiyi.
"I exist for you. I will be satisfied if you live a good life."
There was something that Xu Jing felt he should confess to Xie Zhiyi; he couldn't be kept in the dark.
"Xue Mingqi is Wen Rong's boyfriend. He came to the castle for your body. With your willing sacrifice, he can live on in your place.
And I am willing to do this for you. I want you to live. I want you to be a free bird flying in the sky."
Xu Jing spoke so much in one breath that his mouth became dry.
"I'm sorry to take up your time, but what I really want to say is just be yourself. I hope you can live freely. Not be burdened by your family, and be able to see the world in its fullness."
"But my world doesn't have you."
Xie Zhiyi hugged him tightly and cried, "Can you walk with me? Can we be like Wen Rong and Xue Mingqi? I would be happy even if we have to live in the castle forever."
If the final result is that he is left alone, it is better not to give him hope from the beginning.
"Will you die if you leave me?" Xu Jing wiped his tears and whispered, "Love has an expiration date. You will fall in love with many people in your life, but no one will stay with you forever."
"But you are the one I will never forget. Things that you cannot get are always the best."
Xie Zhiyi thought that with He Wenxiu's selfless dedication, he would never fall in love with anyone again.
Even if he is interested in someone else, as long as that person does not tolerate his own shortcomings, he will choose to leave without hesitation.
Because in his heart, no one is better than He Wenxiu. He may not be as good as them in other aspects, but there is one thing that none of them can achieve: they will not sacrifice their lives for him, but He Wenxiu can.
Once you have tasted the best things in the world, you lose the most real desire for anything else.
Xie Zhiyi wiped away her tears and smiled at him. "No need to exchange souls. Can you just spend the last few days with me?"
Rather than being the one who stays, it is better to be the one who leaves gracefully.
At least it would be nice to have someone who cares about you.
"Are you crazy?" Xie Kunning screamed hysterically. "If I die, everything will be gone. Is it worth it for He Wenxiu? And didn't you say you didn't like him?"
I like him.
I want to be with him but God won't let me?
Since the ending is regrettable, why not leave it at its best? Wouldn't it be nice to enjoy the last journey of life to the fullest?
We will die sooner or later anyway, so it’s better to have someone by our side than to live alone with no one caring about us.
In fact, he had already made the decision in his heart, but he was unwilling to admit it because of the time.
"He Wenxiu, can you accompany me through this section?"
Xu Jing shook his head. "I can't watch you die. If you die, I'll accompany you."
In nature, the red-crowned crane will only find one partner in its lifetime. If the partner dies, the crane will wail continuously and refuse to eat or drink, and may even choose to commit suicide to accompany the partner to death.
Sometimes the tragedy of running towards each other is also a comedy. He is willing to go to the underworld with Xie Zhiyi.
"Okay." Xie Zhiyi's eyes curved, and she hugged him tightly, not letting go. "Then how should we spend the last few days?"
"Whatever, as long as you're with me."
"Then I want to try baking cakes, flying kites, and..."
"Why are all these children playing?"
Xie Zhiyi's eyes dimmed. "You know I've never played before, so I..."
"Okay, I'll do it with you. I'll just consider it as sacrificing my life for a gentleman."
