Cheng Rui was not in a hurry to listen. He pulled a chair over and sat down beside the bed. He put the warm porridge on the bedside table and reached out to touch her pale and delicate face.

She is like a delicate flower, unable to withstand the slightest wind and rain. She needs to be nourished with the best energy so that she can live freely and brilliantly.

She has never had a good life since he brought her back to Yaoyang Base, because of him, Ye Jiahui, that woman, targeted her and tried to kill her by any means necessary, causing her to be injured twice.

"Eat first, and we'll talk later." He said in a deep voice.

Bai Qingqing rubbed her cheek against his warm big hand, clinging to him like a little animal, which made people feel soft in their hearts.

"Help me up." Her tone was soft but contained a hint of command.

Cheng Rui reached out and helped her up, took the pillow and placed it behind her back, and brought out the warm porridge, "I'll feed you."

This scene reminded him of the time when he was injured. She was by his side, applying medicine to him tenderly and taking care of him with all her heart.

Bai Qingqing opened her lips slightly and ate slowly. She stopped eating halfway and said, "I don't want to eat anymore."

Cheng Rui frowned slightly. She looked like a sick kitten. She ate so little, which made people anxious. "Liang Zhiyu said that you can't eat spicy food for the time being. You should eat light staple food and take good care of yourself for a few days."

"I know." Bai Qingqing was full after eating a little and didn't want to eat too much and vomit.

Seeing that she had no appetite, Cheng Rui put down the bowl, took out two pieces of paper and wiped the corners of her mouth, staring at her with burning eyes: "Go ahead."

His handsome and cold features were tense, as if he was waiting for his superiors' judgment. He was willing to accept any punishment.

Bai Qingqing's eyes no longer had that clear and innocent look, instead they revealed a cold and wild nature that reminded people of a hunter who dominated his prey.

When Cheng Rui first entered the training camp, the instructor told him not to underestimate anyone. High-end hunters often appear in the form of prey, seemingly weak and powerless, but they are just trying to lure hunters into taking the bait.

We all think we are hunters, but we don't realize that we have already fallen into the trap of our prey.

Bai Qingqing's eyes sparkled, and she said softly, "Come here."

Cheng Rui approached her, and the girl's warm and fragrant breath invaded him. Her clear and pleasant voice instantly pierced his heart, "I remember it."

His face froze instantly, and he felt as if he was relieved before being executed, but at the same time he was overwhelmed by guilt. He couldn't describe the feeling.

Bai Qingqing stroked his face with her uninjured hand, her voice filled with sorrow and pain: "Actually, I can't really remember it. I had a terrible nightmare. I dreamed of something..."

Her slender white fingers slid down his smooth face, slowly pinched his neck, and stayed there.

"In order to survive and not be abandoned, I tried hard to seduce you, but you didn't even look at me. I made one wrong step after another and went to the extreme."

She smiled softly: "And you shot me to protect Bai Tiantian."

Her fingers tightened slowly, not with much force, but it made Cheng Rui almost unable to breathe. Her words were like a cruel blade cutting into his heart, and the next sentence made him feel even more painful.

“Bang!” She said weakly, accusing him of his cold cruelty, “You blew my head off.”

"I can't!" Cheng Rui's voice was hoarse. He raised his black eyes and looked at Bai Qingqing who had a mocking expression, and a flash of pain passed through his eyes.

Bai Qingqing smiled: "You won't?" She tilted her head, "If I hadn't lost my memory, hadn't changed, and continued to target Bai Tiantian, wouldn't you have killed me to protect her?"

She groaned and recalled, "When I first lost my memory, Shen Mingxuan said that if he found out that I didn't lose my memory, he would shoot me to death."

Cheng Rui pursed her lips tightly, her heart was numb with pain. If her imagination was followed, the team would choose to abandon her, or they might hurt her for Bai Tiantian.

Bai Qingqing's delicate face turned pale. She placed her head on his chest with great difficulty and caution. "Cheng Rui, don't tell them. I will be killed."

Cheng Rui's tall body did not move. How could he bear to let her die? How could he let her die?

"Qingqing." His voice was hoarse, full of regret and guilt: "I'm sorry."

Bai Qingqing raised her eyes and looked at him, her eyes deep: "So you apologized to me a long time ago because you threw me to the ground."

She lowered her eyelashes and said, "It's not your fault. It's all my own fault. I have no shame."

The girl's words stabbed Cheng Rui's heart again. If only he could go back, he would definitely hug her petite body and tell her not to be afraid of anything and that he would protect her.

Cheng Rui was once known as a murder weapon, cold and emotionless, but he lowered his head in front of her like a sinner, "What should I do to make you forgive me?"

Bai Qingqing looked at the completely tamed man, a trace of extremely cold emotion flashed across her eyes, and said: "Some mistakes are made, and mistakes are mistakes. There is no forgiveness."

Cheng Rui looked at her pale little face, feeling as if something was stuck in his throat and unable to speak.

She sighed and said, "The past is the past, let it go, Cheng Rui, I know you like me."

"Me too..." She looked shy, then worried: "But you're not strong enough now. You can't give me a sense of security."

Cheng Rui clenched his hands. He couldn't refute what she said. If he was strong enough, he wouldn't let her get hurt again and again.

Bai Qingqing looked at him with clear eyes, held his hand, and slowly pried open his tightly clenched fingers, "I will follow Fu Chen and leave the Yaoyang Base. When you are strong enough, come find me again."

Cheng Rui knew that she would not be willing to stay, and he was still acting with her a few days ago, almost immersed in the comfortable and warm days.

He really had no right to keep her by his side. She was like a kite with a broken string, flying into the sky. Only someone who could catch the string could have an ending.

"Okay." He promised solemnly, "I'll come find you."

Bai Qingqing decided to give him a sweet treat. She raised her head and kissed him on the mouth, her voice soft and sweet: "I'll wait for you, Cheng Rui."

…

After Cheng Rui left the room, the bedroom door was closed.

Bai Tiantian's eyes were swollen from crying. She ran out of the room and stood in front of Bai Qingqing's door. She wanted to knock but didn't dare.

She really regretted it so much, she really didn't mean to hurt Qingqing. The team members knew that she volunteered to help Ye Haijun, and they all looked at her with condemnation, which made it hard for her to accept.

Her heart was filled with bitterness and grievance, and she wished she could apologize to Qingqing immediately.

"Don't knock." Liang Zhiyu's voice was gentle, but it was inexplicably cold: "You will disturb her, and she doesn't want to see you at this time."

Bai Tiantian's eyes were red. "Doctor Liang, I really didn't mean it."

Liang Zhiyu said indifferently: "It doesn't matter if it wasn't intentional. You have already caused this result. What's the point of saying more?"

He pushed his glasses with his bony fingers and said sarcastically, "You act like this and insist that she forgive you. Do you want to alleviate the guilt in your heart and stop feeling uncomfortable?"

Bai Tiantian's pupils shrank slightly, her lips turned pale, and she looked at him as if she had seen a ghost.

Liang Zhiyu has a gentle and refined appearance and a gentle temperament, which is the type that many women like. He is the easiest person to get along with in the team. She didn't expect that his words could be so hurtful.

"I..." She was silent.

She really knew she was wrong, but didn't she even have the qualifications to ask for forgiveness? She turned around and ran back to her room in shame and embarrassment.

"You've gone a bit too far." Shen Mingxuan's icy voice came.

Liang Zhiyu turned around and smiled, "Is that too much?"

Shen Mingxuan had never asked about Liang Zhiyu's strength, nor did he like to go against this unfathomable old fox. He was just used to protecting Bai Tiantian.

This time it was indeed Bai Tiantian who caused Bai Qingqing to be injured. He pursed his lips and changed the subject: "When do we leave?"

Fu Chen had no intention of abandoning Bai Tiantian at the Yaoyang base. Although everyone did not understand his approach, they did not object. To them, they just needed the space ability to ensure that the team had supplies.

Bai Tiantian loves to cause trouble and be kind-hearted. The worst that can happen is that we just need to keep an eye on her more in the future. There won’t be any big problems.

Liang Zhiyu said calmly: "Tomorrow."

The City of Death is a zombie paradise with a terrible environment. People with special abilities would die if they ran there, but they have reasons why they have to go.

He understood Fu Chen's thoughts. He left Bai Qingqing at the Yaoyang base to protect her safety. He had no objection and also felt that keeping Bai Qingqing was the right choice.

When Xiao Yang came out of the room, he saw the two of them chatting. He strode towards Bai Qingqing's door and knocked on it: "Qingqing, can I come in?"

Shen Mingxuan and Liang Zhiyu noticed that he was holding a few wooden dolls in his hands. The intricately carved things were very beautiful and it seemed that he had put a lot of thought into them.

This guy hasn't let go of his thoughts yet. I thought he would be so shocked that he would automatically quit when he saw Cheng Rui and Bai Qingqing getting along.

Shen Mingxuan sneered: "Childish."

Hand-carved dolls to chase girls, he stopped doing this eight hundred years ago, Xiao Yang guessed that he was crazy.

Bai Qingqing's voice came from the room, "Come in."

Liang Zhiyu raised his eyebrows slightly and watched Xiao Yang walk into the room arrogantly and slam the door.

Xiao Yang held a bunch of cute little dolls and squatted in front of the bed: "Qingqing, are you feeling better? Does the wound hurt?" He picked up a doll and said, "Look, this is the doll I carved for you."

"This is Abao, and this is Dahuang." He asked as if he was presenting a treasure: "Do they look good? Do you like them?"

Bai Qingqing looked at the lifelike wooden doll with joy in her eyes. She did not forget that Xiao Yang had not yet completely succeeded in conquering her. Although he was jealous these days, he did not do anything extreme and always tried to please her.

"So beautiful." She praised generously: "Xiao Yang, you are so amazing."

Seeing that she liked it, Xiao Yang was even happier. He put the wooden doll on her quilt and controlled the doll to perform for her in order to make her happy.

…

As the night deepened, the lights in the villa went out and Fu Chen entered Bai Qingqing's bedroom.

He walked to the bedside, looked at her deeply in the moonlight, and after staring at her for a few seconds, he placed the Tang sword beside her and leaned over to stroke her fair face with gentle and affectionate movements.

After a moment, he turned and walked towards the door.

Bai Qingqing's voice came from behind, "Brother."

Fu Chen paused and did not turn around. In the dimly lit room, the two of them were silent, and their heavy breathing was almost audible.

Fu Chen restrained himself from looking back. He was afraid that if he looked at her for a few more seconds, he would be reluctant to leave.

He left the room without saying a word, his back cold.

Bai Qingqing looked at the cold room, smiled to herself, and lay back down in the quilt.
