“I have to take responsibility for what I’ve done!” She looked at him with determination. “It was my carelessness, I must take responsibility!”
“You don’t need to take responsibility by getting yourself trampled, especially since you didn’t do it on purpose.” Xuan Ben shielded her as they moved to a corner.
“Sorry, Shenniu, don’t be mad!” She could only apologize helplessly against Xuan Ben’s force.
Unfortunately, when a bull is mad, it doesn’t listen to reason, and its rampage continued, the airship increasingly on the verge of breaking apart.
“I think…” Zhu Zhu suddenly spoke up, her face serious.
“What’s wrong? Can’t hold on anymore?”
“Almost, you need to brace for impact!” Zhu Zhu looked at them sincerely.
“Why are you saying that?” Xuan Ben looked back at her.
Zhu Zhu pressed a button under the driver’s seat, and the entire chair shot out, flying far away. “Wow, the technology in this mythical world can actually rival the modern world!” Xu Xian’en looked stunned.
“Now’s not the time for marveling, is it?”
As soon as Shen Ben spoke, the entire flying chariot suddenly emitted a loud bang, disintegrated, and all the passengers fell in a straight line one after another.
“Ah—”
“Uh—”
Thud!
The entire flying chariot crashed directly onto the ground, smashing into pieces.
“Ah—” Xu Xian’en opened her eyes wide and screamed.
In the empty room, her scream echoed back, and she suddenly realized she was lying in bed. She quickly turned over and got up.
Shen Ben? Zhizhi? Shen Niu?
Before she could recover from the shock of her house not collapsing, she was already frantically searching for something.
She had returned to the modern world, but what about them?
Were they crushed to death in the mythical world, or were they not dead and still there?
What about her? What should she do?
The kitchen, not there.
The bathroom, not there.
The living room, not there.
Even the room where they played chess, still not there.
Where exactly were they? Was she the only one who came back? Or did they only exist in her imagination?
Xu Xian’en collapsed on the ground in frustration, recalling Zhizhi’s sly smile, Shen Niu’s mouth… and Shen Ben rushing to the flying chariot just to ensure her safety…
