“No . ” Nangong Zifei blinks at Jiao Daihu . Even someone who is simple minded like Daihu understands the nonverbal meaning .

His mouth slides to a smile, letting out a laugh . Daihu moves quickly despite his rotund state . “Sister-in-law, I have to go thank the doctors . Please take your time catching up . ”

The door opens and closes, and the atmosphere cools .

“The amount… . ” An Chuxia pauses before rising from her seat . “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go ahead . Today’s the first day of our excursion… . ”

“Don’t you like me, An Chuxia?”

Her body stiffens at his question . She doesn’t respond to his question, hoping not to embarra.s.s herself . She doesn’t know if she should stay or leave .

The absence of her response leaves a dim light in his eyes . “Do you know why I want to be friends with you? Because you’re kind, and your friends.h.i.+p is genuine . But I don’t know where I stand with you . And in the end, things don’t feel right . ”

The absence of her response leaves a dim light in his eyes . “Do you know why I want to be friends with you? Because you’re kind, and your friends.h.i.+p is genuine . But I don’t know where I stand with you . And in the end, things don’t feel right . ”

“I’m sorry . ” She smacks her head in annoyance . She extends her index finger and pokes Nangong Zifei’s head . “Of course, I’m kind and loyal . But I’m not a goody-two-shoes . However, I would be more relieved to not lend money to bloodied people . Hahaha!”

After laughing, she realizes that he didn’t laugh at all . She pulls her hand back and scratches her head . “My jokes aren’t funny, huh?”

“No, it’s funny . ” Nangong Zifei says with a serious expression .

“You say it’s funny, but you’re not laughing?”

She shrugs her shoulders before changing the subject . “So why were you beaten? After listening to Jiao Daihu, you seem to be a good fighter . ”

“I don’t fight . ” He shakes his head . “Help me ring the bell . ”

“I don’t fight . ” He shakes his head . “Help me ring the bell . ”

An Chuxia looks up and realizes that his bottle is about to drop . She hurries and rings the call bell . She didn’t notice that Nangong Zifei has deliberately changed the subject without her noticing .

“An Chuxia, do you love Han Qilu?”

Her heartbeat races as she looks at him . She stares back at him as he waits for her response .

At that moment, even the sound of her breathing is audible .

“I can’t talk about love . ” Just like that, she blurts it .

“So,” he replies with a sigh of relief . “If one day, no woman is willing to marry me, would you marry me out of kindness?”

“I can’t talk about love . ” Just like that, she blurts it .

“So,” he replies with a sigh of relief . “If one day, no woman is willing to marry me, would you marry me out of kindness?”

Suddenly, her expression changes . Her facial expressions keep on transitioning .

“Hey… . ” An Chuxia suddenly laughs . “I said nothing . You’re handsome and gentle . The only time a woman won’t marry you is because it’s the end of the world . ”

“I am serious . ” Nangong Zifei sits up . He wants to say something before she interrupts him .

“Needless to say, if that day ever comes, I will definitely marry you . ” She sticks out her tongue before saying, “Now I told you, I want to go to this adventure . Now that I’ve seen you’re fine, I will head out . I’ll show you photos when I get back . ”
