"So, you still prefer him during the day, don't you?" Qi Xiao sneered, his dark eyes filled with resentment, grievance, and accusation as he looked at Qin Wan.
Qin Wan: "..."
Qin Wan sighed softly and asked with a helpless expression, "Speak, what exactly do you want?"
Qi Xiao stared at her with a deep gaze, "I can't sleep."
"so what?"
"I can only come out at night," Qi Xiao added.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan pursed her red lips slightly, a complex look flashing in her eyes.
She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What exactly is going on between you and him?"
"Is there any way to turn you two back?"
At this point, Qin Wan paused, then tentatively asked, "...Would you mind telling me about it?"
Their eyes met...
Seeing the sincerity in Qin Wan's eyes, Qi Xiao remained silent for a moment before nodding gently.
Under the moonlight, on the roof of the inn.
Qin Wan and Qi Xiao sat leaning against each other, each holding a pot of wine and drinking.
"He and I are the same person..."
"He wasn't like this before..."
“Life in the harem was tough. At least the other princes and princesses in the cold palace had their birth mothers to protect them, but he didn’t.”
“He was beaten, bullied, and poisoned. His birth mother even used him as a potion maker. My appearance was the beginning of his struggle and resistance.”
As he spoke, Qi Xiao picked up the wine pot and poured the wine into his mouth.
“In the past, he would have had fantasies about his birth mother.”
"With my arrival, he completely abandoned all his unrealistic fantasies."
"He learned to be hypocritical, to lie low, and to conceal his abilities and keep a low profile."
"And I, in a sense, am a fragment of him..."
Good intentions?
Or rather, what is the most authentic side of one's heart?
He couldn't explain it either.
He doesn't remember anything from the night.
But at night he remembered everything that had happened during the day.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank her for giving me this immune-to-all-poisons constitution."
"Although the days when I was treated as a drug patient were painful and dark, at least I benefited from the misfortune and my physical condition was completely changed."
"Because he tried so many drugs and was around her all the time, he even learned a lot of skills, such as poisoning and antidote."
As he spoke, Qi Xiao's mind uncontrollably recalled those dark and desperate past events.
Looking up at the dreamy moonlight and Qin Wan beside him, Qi Xiao smiled contentedly.
"You know what..."
"Actually, I didn't want to save her..."
The "she" here naturally refers to the birth mother, the princess of the Loulan Kingdom who was imprisoned by Feng Yurou and used to threaten him, and the former most beautiful woman.
"If you don't want to save them, then don't."
Qin Wan, who had been listening for a long time, suddenly spoke.
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiao turned to look at her, smiled slightly, and asked, "Don't you think I'm cold-blooded and heartless?"
Qin Wan stared directly into his eyes, allowing him to clearly see the sincerity in them.
"Repay kindness with kindness, and avenge wrongs with revenge."
Repay others as they treat you.
"She hurt you first, and her current predicament is simply the consequence of her own actions."
"Even tigers don't eat their cubs, let alone a human being like her."
"She doesn't deserve it!"
After Qin Wan finished speaking, Qi Xiao stared at her intently for a long, long time...
Seeing the sincerity in her eyes and the undisguised tenderness she showed him, Qi Xiao suddenly smiled.
very nice.
There are still people in this world who care about him.
There are still people in this world who like him.
There are still people in this world who are biased towards him.
very nice.
His presence is not superfluous.
His existence was not unacceptable to others.
Even if he doesn't remember himself during the day, so what?
Qin Wan still remembers, Qin Wan accepts him, Qin Wan likes him, and Qin Wan stays by his side...
Thinking of this, Qi Xiao's lips curled up, and his usually deep black eyes shone with an unusual brilliance at this moment.
His gaze towards Qin Wan kept shifting...
[Ye Qixiao's favorability increased by 10, current favorability 74.]
"That……"
"Do you prefer me during the day or at night?"
After the emotional outpouring, Qi Xiao never forgot the "most, most, most important" question.
Qin Wan: "..." This man is truly something else.
"Do you want the truth or a lie?" Qin Wan asked with a serious expression.
"..." Qi Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly. "Heh!"
Qi Xiao looked away from Qin Wan, picked up the wine jug and poured it into his mouth, drinking it down without saying a word.
"Stop drinking." Qin Wan sighed helplessly and reached out to take the wine pot from his hand.
Unexpectedly, Qi Xiao was already on guard against her. As soon as she reached out her hand, he leaned back and successfully dodged it.
Qin Wan: "..."
"We have to travel tomorrow, so don't drink anymore." Qin Wan stood up and tried to grab the wine pot.
Seeing this, Qi Xiao also stood up and leaped down to avoid Qin Wan.
"That's none of your business!"
With that, Qi Xiao leaped down and returned to the house.
With a loud bang, the door to Qi Xiao's room was slammed shut.
The loud noise woke up most of the guests in the inn who were still fast asleep.
Soon, a burst of impatient chatter filled the inn.
Qin Wan pinched her brow, feeling a headache coming on, and quickly flew down.
At the door of Qi Xiao's room.
A knocking sound rang out on the door.
"Qi Xiao, open the door."
...
There was no movement inside the room, and Qi Xiao did not answer her.
"If you don't open the door, I'll come in myself." Qin Wan pursed her red lips, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
...
There was still no movement inside, but Qin Wan had exceptional hearing and clearly heard the sound of wine being poured coming from inside.
She frowned slightly, her palm filled with inner strength, and with a gentle wave of her hand, the door was knocked open.
Inside the room, Qi Xiao was drinking heavily when he heard the door being opened. He merely glanced coldly at Qin Wan before looking away.
"I need to rest," Qi Xiao said coldly.
Qin Wan didn't say anything, but stepped forward and tried to snatch the wine pot from his hand.
Qi Xiao leaned back to avoid her approach...
"It's none of your business," Qi Xiao said coldly.
"I just love meddling in your business!"
As she spoke, Qin Wan leaned forward, restrained Qi Xiao's hands, snatched the wine pot, and threw it on the ground.
"Bang."
"Clang!"
The wine jug fell to the ground and shattered instantly.
Qin Wan pressed down on Qi Xiao, squinting dangerously at him.
"Stop making a scene!"
Qi Xiao looked at her with a resentful expression, his thin lips slightly pursed, his face full of displeasure.
Seeing this, Qin Wan sighed softly. Under Qi Xiao's incredulous gaze, she lowered her head and moved closer to him...
The delicate little face kept magnifying in his eyes...
The moment the soft touch came from his lips, Qi Xiao's dark pupils trembled violently.
thump!
thump!
thump!
I like you more.
One sentence made Qi Xiao's heart pound like thunder...
Qi Xiao's favorability increased by 10, current favorability is 84.
"Really? Really?" Qi Xiao stared at her blankly, his eyes flashing with disbelief.
He was the part that was split off.
The reason for being separated is that they are not liked, not needed, and have no reason to exist...
