"Keep going straight, then turn right at the intersection..."
"You should have cooperated earlier, sweetie." Zhong Yan smiled and seemed to be in a good mood. She said very proactively, "Bai Xi, if you had always been this sensible, we wouldn't have had so many conflicts, right?"
"I don't want to talk to you!" Bai Xi snorted coldly, still showing no respect and looking very angry: "Instead of wasting your time, you should think about what you're going to do next! Zhong Yan, let me tell you, the Netherworld is very dangerous. You should think carefully about what you're going to do."
"I understand." Zhong Yan also knew the importance of knowing when to stop. Although the people from the underworld had shown her goodwill so far, it didn't mean she naively thought that nothing was wrong!
After all, it's the underworld, and countless people hesitate to go there!
No matter how arrogant Zhong Yan was, she couldn't possibly think that she was fearless on her own! That wasn't fearlessness, but ignorance. Thinking about the situation she might face in the end, the smile on her face froze.
You can't do that!
Seeing that she was taking it seriously, Bai Xi relaxed a little. Of course, she knew very well that no matter how much she said or did, it would be useless if she didn't listen.
At times like this, she still has to rely on herself!
“Xiaochen, you…”
"I'm sorry." Jiang Xiaochen lowered his eyes and said softly, "I should have turned around and left immediately. But don't worry, even if there is any problem, I'll take care of everything."
"Stop with this nonsense!" Zhong Yan snorted. "Instead of wasting time on this, you should be thinking about how to deal with the enemy. Jiang Xiaochen, I don't want you to disregard your own safety in the future. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Jiang Xiaochen felt increasingly uncomfortable, as if something was blocking his heart, preventing him from making a sound! Was it awkward? A little.
If he hadn't been so useless, she wouldn't be in this state now.
Thinking about it, it's all my fault!
Seeing his apologetic expression, Zhong Yan felt uneasy. She didn't want him to look like that! Especially now, she hoped he would stay true to his beliefs and stay by her side forever.
"Jiang Xiaochen, what are you thinking about?"
"I……"
"Do you want to leave me? Do you feel like a burden? Or do you think I'm a monster and despise me?"
"No!" Jiang Xiaochen denied anxiously. What was she saying? In this life, even if he felt he was a nuisance, he would never feel that he was a nuisance.
So, what is he so worried about?
Zhong Yan stared at him intently for a long time before finally managing to utter, "It's good that you don't despise me! Jiang Xiaochen, I'm not good at saying nice things, but I hope you understand that you are different and irreplaceable to me! If one day you really abandon me for some unfounded reason, I will definitely make you regret it."
Jiang Xiaochen: "..."
How could he bear to abandon her?!
Even if it were the end of the world, he would stand in front of her and protect her from any harm—that much was certain. Therefore, her worries were completely unnecessary!
However, he didn't want to say it.
For Chiang Hsiao-chen, actions always outweigh words!
