rustle--

The breeze blows on my face, gently stirring the dense leaves. Bai Chu pulled Leina and walked naturally in the jungle.

Lei Na quietly raised her head, and the sunlight flowed through the gaps in the leaves and fell on Bai Chu's face, as if it had given him a layer of holy halo. For a moment, Lei Na was a little dazed.

Bai Chu, it's really pretty...

"Hey, what are you looking at?"

Bai Chu suddenly lowered his head and looked at her with a smile, his eyes as calm as water.

He had been walking around in the surrounding jungle with Leina for more than half an hour. In the past half hour, this little girl would secretly glance at him like this every once in a while.

He was not a slow person to begin with, and he discovered it early on. What's more, the child looked at him dumbfounded this time.

Am I really that good looking?

"Could it be that... I really have some hidden succubus bloodline?"

Bai Chu touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

It's not impossible... After all, he has never paid much attention to the rewards given by the Feiwu System. Who knows, he might get the blood of a succubus during a mission?

"As expected, it's all your fault."

"...As long as you are happy, I have no objection." The system was speechless.

Old man, if anything happens, just blame me, right?

You've said that, so what else can I do?

There's nothing frivolous about it.

"Yes, sorry!"

After being noticed by Bai Chu, Leina suddenly panicked, waved her hands in confusion, and unconsciously avoided his sight.

"That, that, I..."

"Okay, okay, just watch." Bai Chu gently touched her head and couldn't help but laugh.

I still think about the child Leina. She has really changed a lot in the past few years... but it turns out that she hasn't changed at all.

"Bai Chu..." Laina bit her lower lip and lowered her head shyly.

This person is still the same as he was then, he hasn't changed at all...

"Did you have a good trip?"

The two of them had a tacit understanding and said nothing else.

"Yeah. Although various things happened, it went quite smoothly overall." Bai Chu smiled and nodded.

"Want to listen?"

"Um…"

Leina nodded slightly and mustered up the courage to look at him.

I don’t know why, but in the past few years, she has become much more confident, and has a high reputation in the Order... But looking at Bai Chu’s familiar face, she still unconsciously becomes the same person she was with a few years ago. When we first met him, he looked introverted and shy.

Moreover, looking at Bai Chu...she always felt a hazy and uneasy feeling in her heart.

"I…I want to listen."

Laina held his hand and responded quietly. Although there was some panic in her eyes, she did not evade like before.

If she would never see him again and this would be the last time... then she must cherish the present time and remember Bai Chu's appearance and everything he experienced in her mind.

She wanted to bury this memory deep in her heart like a treasure.

Perhaps, one day she will not be able to remember Baichu's face and forget many things related to him.

But I still remember a little bit.

"Okay." Bai Chu pinched her face gently, looked at the affection in her eyes that belonged only to a girl, and sighed in his heart.

If he were an ordinary person, it would be nice to live here with Laina.

After all, this child has a gentle personality, is so cute, has good family conditions, and still likes him so much. Apart from not caring about taking care of herself and being too focused on academics, Leina was perfect as a wife in every aspect.

It's a pity...he can't make a promise to this child.

"Just right, let me comb your hair by the way."

"Um…"

Bai Chu pulled Leina to sit under the shade of a tree, combing her messy hair while softly recounting the events of his journey.

Time passes quietly, blowing like a breeze, leaving no trace. Leina leaned against Bai Chu, her eyes as gentle as water, and listened to his voice quietly.

During Bai Chu's narration, Leina noticed two people.

"Nia, Fukalos..." Leina interrupted Bai Chu and murmured softly.

She turned her head, with a little dissatisfaction and grievance in her beautiful dark golden eyes.

"Do they like you too?"

"Uh…"

Bai Chu was speechless for a moment, and his brain stopped working for a moment.

No, what happened to this little girl?

He was obviously speaking very seriously, so why was her focus so strange?

Bai Chu had no idea that he had been talking about Nia and Fucaros, so it would be strange if he didn't notice.

"Hmph..." Seeing his reaction, Leina understood and couldn't help but snorted lightly, with a little jealousy in her voice.

But soon, she noticed something else.

"Did Bai Chu also say goodbye to them..."

Leina lowered her head slightly, thinking silently in her heart.

Next, it will be her turn.

Bai Chu...you are such an annoying person, Laina thought to herself.

Although she always smiles and seems gentle to everyone...but, she understands.

Laina's eyes dimmed slightly, and she took a deep breath. Then, she took Bai Chu's hand, put it on her face, and rubbed it gently.

The warm touch reassured Leina a little.

"Bai Chu...can you just let me stay like this for a while?"

"Ah."

"Thanks…"

Hearing Bai Chu's agreement, Leina raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and then went a little further, letting Bai Chu sit cross-legged on the ground, while she lay down.

Of course, Bai Chu's hand was still on her face.

Only in this way can her lost heart be cheered up a little.

Laina understood, she had understood it a long time ago.

"Bai Chu... is a good person."

Always smiling and gentle to everyone. Leina believed that he was not pretending, that he was this kind of person.

However, her delicate mind also noticed other places.

"It's so sad..." Leina sighed secretly.

She did not exist in Bai Chu's heart.

It's not that Bai Chu hates her or anything, it's just that she has never entered Bai Chu's heart from the beginning.

I'm afraid she's not the only one...

It was as if Bai Chu had deliberately closed his heart. Although it seems easy to get along with, once you get to know each other, you will find that——

He is a gentle person, but he is also very cold.

He would never stay just because he liked him. In his mind, I'm afraid he is just a passerby with a slightly deeper impression.

"...Before you leave, remember to visit Mina."

"Yeah. I know."

The corners of Laina's mouth rose. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and quietly enjoyed the peace of this moment.

Sure enough, I still like you.
