Chapter 115 The world over there is not as warm as here
Shen Xingying ate this breakfast with a worried look on her face, as she always felt that Meng Fanyan was in great danger.

She wanted to ask him several times if he could take her with him, but she swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.

"You should be careful."

Apart from repeated reminders, there was nothing else she could do for him.

Meng Fanyan drank the sweet soup she had served herself slowly and calmly, his lips slightly raised as he said soothingly: "Don't worry, I have the energy you gave me in my body, and I will return safely."

He meant that the beast soul advanced last night and absorbed the energy of her blood.

Xiao Chenlian pretended to cough and interrupted the topic: "Can you two consider the feelings of a bystander like me? You are so affectionate so early in the morning. Do you want to let me live?"

Shen Xingying's cheeks flushed when she heard this, and she said awkwardly, "Sorry, Mr. Xiao, I forgot you were here too."

Meng Fanyan put down the porcelain bowl and continued, "Just call him Secretary Xiao from now on."

Xiao Chenlian: "...Do you believe that I will cut you off? I didn't agree to help you with chores. After all, I am a famous jewelry designer..."

Meng Fanyan automatically blocked out his boasting and said to Shen Xingying in a gentle voice, "I'm leaving now. You and A Lian should take good care of each other these few days and don't step out of Fanxing Garden. If you encounter any emergency, just shout my name into the air. Or, hide in the bedroom."

"Yes." Shen Xingying nodded with a heavy heart, but she didn't dare to let Meng Fanyan see the tears in her eyes, "Then go quickly and come back soon."

She lowered her head and picked up the ragdoll cat that jumped to the foot of the table and chair, "There are so many people at home, you don't have to worry about me."

"Okay, wait until I come back."

Before leaving, Meng Fanyan gave her a deep kiss on her lips.

Before Shen Xingying could fully come to her senses, he had disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Chenlian stared at the empty seat in front of him, his heart still shaken.

He was stunned for a long time before asking Shen Xingying: "You knew he was not human a long time ago, right?"

"Yeah." Shen Xingying responded softly.

"So...you're never afraid?"

"Afraid. Of course I was afraid." Shen Xingying answered truthfully: "When I was not very sensible before, I was worried every day and night that he would eat me. But now, after fully understanding his true identity, I no longer feel afraid." On the contrary, she loves him so much that she can no longer get rid of it.

Xiao Chenlian was silent for a moment.

After a few seconds, he smiled bitterly with a pale face: "I still can't recover from it. I always feel like I'm dreaming."

In particular, when Meng Fanyan said that he was an elementalist, he found it absurd.

Shen Xingying looked deeply into his eyes and said hesitantly, "Mr. Xiao, do you know that you and Meng Fanyan are of the same kind?"

"I know," Xiao Chenlian lowered his eyelashes in a trance, "Fan Yan told me everything last night. But I still think this is too far-fetched. After all, I am too weak to lift anything with my hands or carry it on my shoulders. How could it be an alien?"

"That's because you don't have a beast soul in your body now. If you merge with a beast soul, you can also fly into the sky and hide in the ground like Meng Fanyan."

"Beast soul?" Xiao Chenlian suddenly thought of his little black dog, Rambo. "Now that you mention it, it sounds pretty cool. But... it may be difficult for me to accept this inhuman change."

Everyone has their own different pursuits in life.

He likes his current carefree life.

Deep down in his bones, he seemed to hate those dark days of intrigue and bloody fights between blood relatives.

"The world over there is not as warm as here."

Vaguely, he seemed to recall some fragmented memories.

Shen Xingying's heart was slightly moved.

Is the world over there not as warm as here?

She liked this sentence.

Earth has the sea, the sun, and four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. It is indeed much warmer than Firefly.

However, the warmth that Xiao Chenlian talked about was the human heart...
