Chapter 427 The Foodie Male Lead 15 But seeing the tension and barely perceptible pleading in her clear eyes, Mo Chen's bottom line of persistence instantly lowered considerably.
At least the fact that the girl was willing to share this shocking secret, even if it was a embellished version, meant that she was beginning to trust him.
This trust was especially precious to him.
The mystery and power of this space are far beyond what a single set of primordial seeds could explain.
But he wisely didn't expose it.
Everyone has their own secrets, and she has already revealed enough.
He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, walked to the edge of the tomato field, and imitated Zi Xi, picking a tomato and taking a bite.
In an instant, a pure, sweet taste filled his mouth, and a gentle energy slid down his throat, nourishing his consciousness, which had just been slightly uncomfortable due to the mental shock.
The taste and the energy are simply amazing.
"It's very sweet."
Mo Chen shook the tomato in his hand, a faint but genuine smile curving his lips.
Just two words were enough to instantly relax Zi Xi's tense nerves.
He didn't press further, which meant he accepted her version of events.
An indescribable sense of peace welled up inside me.
Sharing the secret, especially such a huge one, did not bring the expected danger. Instead, it made her feel an unprecedented sense of relief, as if a huge burden had been lifted off her shoulders.
To Amo, they all seem a bit more pleasing to the eye.
The relationship between the two intensifies rapidly due to their shared secret.
Seeing Zi Xi's relieved expression and her smiling eyes, Mo Chen felt that he should also show some sincerity.
He walked to the edge of the grass and sat down, patting the spot next to him to signal Zixi to sit down as well.
Zi Xi hesitated for a moment but still walked over and sat down, keeping half an arm's length distance from him.
"You saved me and told me such a big secret... I should tell you some things too."
Mo Chen spoke in a deep and steady voice.
Zi Xi immediately perked up her ears.
"I disguised myself."
"Although I can't tell you my real identity right now, I will make sure you get out of here safely."
Mo Chen got straight to the point.
"Okay, you protect my safety, and I'll take care of the logistics."
Zi Xi said "Oh," and then she also changed her appearance.
Looking at the girl in front of him, who had become vibrant because of sharing the secret, and who had even begun to draw him into her sphere, he felt as if a warm sun had been cast into his heart.
This lowering of some of his defenses was already a huge concession and a sign of trust for him.
"Okay, then it's up to you."
He looked into her bright eyes and nodded gently, his voice low and soft.
"Oh no, there seems to be some noise outside. It could be the production crew coming to our rescue, or the live broadcast equipment has found us!"
We need to get out of here right now!
Just then, Zi Xi suddenly sensed something, and her expression changed slightly.
She grabbed Mo Chen's wrist again, a thought flashing through her mind.
The milky white light enveloped the two of them once again.
When they reappeared in the pale green fluorescent forest, standing where they had disappeared, the buzzing sound of the live broadcast device could be heard from afar.
The two exchanged a quick glance, both seeing a tacit understanding in each other's eyes.
After a brief rest, and confirming that the program's search drones were merely routinely flying over the area and had not discovered any anomalies regarding their disappearance and reappearance, Mo Chen and Zi Xi quickly left the fluorescent forest.
"This can't go on any longer."
