Yan Qing, I actually want to tell you something…” An Xi struggled for a moment, but finally mustered the courage to speak, her hands nervously clutching the seatbelt. “What is it?” Yan Qing curved his lips, in this moment, he had actually been waiting for a long time. And An Xi, was she finally being “honest” with him? “If I say I came back from eight years in the future, that I’m an An Xi who has already died once… would you believe me?” An Xi wasn’t sure if she had explained herself clearly, perhaps this matter itself was difficult to articulate. “…I believe you.” Yan Qing paused slightly, but spoke those two words with firm conviction. “!” An Xi looked up at him in surprise. “Because, I am too…” Yan Qing reached out and gently patted her head, “And in this life, I’m glad you didn’t go looking for Chen Yi again… Welcome back, An Xi.” How could I possibly look for Chen Yi… An Xi calmed down under his gentle head pat. It seemed he didn’t know about her time as a ghost… This matter, it’s better to keep it a secret! Otherwise… what if Yan Qing becomes awkward knowing she saw his “episodes”? Besides… An Xi clenched her fist, she didn’t care about those things, and there was no need to bring them up and make Yan Qing worry. “By the way, I probably won’t be able to accompany you at school next semester.” Yan Qing’s patting stopped, his forehead resting against An Xi’s, “Whether it’s Lu Shuang or Chen Yi… An Xi, you can’t like them.” “…Of course not.” You’re so lacking in confidence… She felt the usually perfect Yan Qing, and this Yan Qing who was actively vulnerable and endearing, were completely incomparable… An Xi couldn’t help but reach out and touch Yan Qing’s hair, soft and pleasant to the touch. Yan Qing slowly closed his eyes… actually, he had no intention of showing weakness… Or rather… he wanted to say that if An Xi fell for someone else, he would regrettably “go on a killing spree”. Unaware of the truth, An Xi walked away radiating a soft “maternal glow”, while Yan Qing immediately returned to his usual expression, even slightly curving his lips. — An Xi, I believe in you the most!
