“I left for a little while last night when Fengguang was asleep.”
Feng Guang knew he had the ability to get to another place in the blink of an eye, but she was still dissatisfied, "Why didn't you take me with you to get it?"
“Because I can’t wait.” Xu Wang said, placing the box in her hands. “Fengguang can take a look and see what’s inside.”
Hearing his words, she curiously opened the box and saw an amber pendant inside. Inside the amber, there seemed to be a petal of a red rose. She said happily, "This amber is so beautiful. Xu Wang, please help me put it on."
Xu Wang took out the pendant, walked behind her, and gently put it around her neck. Then, he hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear, "Feng Guang, this is very important to me."
She asked playfully, "How important?"
"About... about the same as my life."
"Huh?" Feng Guang was stunned for a moment, then unconsciously gripped the pendant tighter. "It means so much to you, then I will definitely protect it well."
She initially thought that, given his indifferent nature, it was impossible for him to have something of such great significance. But upon closer reflection, Xu Wang was also human, and humans would have things that were important to them, whether it was a person or an object. As for humans, she was confident that it was him.
Seeing her solemn expression, Xu Wang chuckled, resting his chin on her head. "However, this thing is still not as important as Fengguang. So, if we really have to choose between the two, I hope Fengguang can prioritize protecting himself."
"I understand." Feng Guang turned around to face him, then hugged him with a smile. She wanted to ask why this amber was so important to him, but since he didn't say, there was no need for her to ask. She knew Xu Wang; if he wanted to tell her, he would definitely do so on his own.
"Fengguang, do you believe me?"
She nodded. "I believe you."
"Then you'll believe that no matter what I do, no matter what happens to me, I'll eventually come back to you, right?"
She realized something was wrong. "Xu Wang, what are you trying to say?"
"I need to go to Chen Yu's residence," Xu Wang said, his eyes slightly narrowed.
"You want to save Yan Yu?" That was her first reaction, but she quickly retorted in her heart. Xu Wang doesn't like Yan Yu or Nan Xiaoxiao, so why should he save them?
But to everyone's surprise, Xu Wang replied, "That might not be wrong either."
"Huh?" She was incredulous. No wonder she didn't believe it, because Xu Wang was not such a kind person at all!
In response, Xu Wang simply smiled and said, "Because... I also happen to have some things to take care of."
"Then when you go to Chen Yu's territory, if..."
“Didn’t Fengguang say that?” He interrupted her, reassuring her, “You will believe me, and I will return to you safely. Fengguang just needs to stay in the hotel and wait for me to come back to you.”
What if... what if he didn't come looking for her?
Feng Guang didn't dare ask such a question that sounded like a rash statement. She hugged his waist tightly and said, "You have to come back soon. I'll be scared if I stay in the hotel alone."
"I promise you, I'll be back soon," he said softly. If possible, he didn't want to leave her.
