"Can I hold you?" Jiu Wu suddenly asked, interrupting Xia Xiang's anger.
Xia Xiang was stunned and speechless with anger. Is he crazy?!
Jiu Wu pulled on the red ribbon tied to his wrist, wrapped his arms around Xia Xiang, and hugged her tightly.
“Hu Yanqing and I were never supposed to be married. I don’t like her, and she doesn’t like me either. The old man’s proposal for marriage was rejected by both of us. There was no marriage alliance.”
Xia Xiang felt her heart was beating very fast, but she didn't expect Jiu Wu's heart to beat even faster, making it impossible for her to concentrate on thinking.
When Jiu Wu heard that she didn't react for a while, he loosened his grip slightly and saw her dazed look. His heart softened completely. His little chubby boy was really cute.
"Cough," Xia Xiang nudged Jiu Wu, signaling him to let go of her, and Jiu Wu obediently complied. "Okay, I understand."
"Huh? You know? Are you sure?" Jiu Wu hadn't expected her to react this way. What was the difference between her and not knowing?
Xia Xiang nodded, "Confirmed."
"What's with your reaction? Share your thoughts?" Jiu Wu asked, puzzled.
Xia Xiang frowned and said, "You've never been to the Silver Dimension before. If you're just risking your life for this matter, it's really unnecessary."
There was nothing Jiu Wu didn't understand; she was just burying her head in the sand like an ostrich.
But this time it wouldn't be so easy to escape; he was determined to pull her head out.
"You're bullying me!" Jiu Wu gripped Xia Xiang's shoulders and said, feeling wronged.
"You know I like you, but you still avoid me. You clearly like me, but you're still stubborn and won't admit it."
Xia Xiang looked away as if trying to escape, refusing to look at him. Jiu Wu then cupped her face in his hands, leaving her nowhere to hide.
She didn't know when she started liking Jiuwu; perhaps it was because she had been used to him being around since she was little, and suddenly being separated from him made her feel very uncomfortable.
As a result, she developed insomnia during her first year on Bamo Island. No matter how tired she was during the day or how many days she didn't sleep, she couldn't fall asleep at night.
Later, my body couldn't take it anymore and I fainted. After waking up, I continued to suffer from insomnia.
She tried many medications, but due to her superhuman constitution, she was unable to fall asleep normally.
It wasn't until she saw a psychiatrist on the island that she learned she had an utterly absurd illness—lovesickness.
The doctor advised her to relax and prescribed her a medication called "I'll Make You Calm" to help control her emotions.
[The explanation of the insane - I will make you calm down. It is said to have been created by the 157th generation of the Demon-Slaying Island Lord. Because the island lord fell in love with a demon woman and was in great pain, he devoted himself to researching it for several years.]
However, after he completed his research, he realized that he had completely forgotten why he had conducted the research in the first place.
After several generations of improvements, the side effects were eliminated, and the final version was developed, capable of suppressing excessive excitement and also improving physical health.
"I think you should calm down. How about you take one?" Xia Xiang no longer avoided his gaze, but simply pulled his hand down and took out a bottle of "I'll Make You Calm Down" from her pocket.
Jiu Wu's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally about to die. "I'm here passionately confessing my love to you, and you're asking me if I need to take my medicine?"
"No, I just think we can have a proper talk," Xia Xiang said, putting the medicine back into her bag.
Jiu Wu, his anger turning into a pufferfish, exclaimed, "I have nothing to talk about with you except love!"
