"Xue Chu," as if he noticed something, Rong Xu took a step forward, and the heat from his breath began to encroach on the remaining safe distance between the two.

"You look at me, you look at me - okay?"

He became anxious again at this time, and his originally dark eyes were filled with torn emotions for an instant, and the next second, the raised hands could no longer hold back the person in front of him. In arms.

As if he was about to lose her in the next second, Rong Xu hugged her very tightly.

"You...let me go first," Xuechu sighed. For the first time, he was burned by the hot emotions imposed on himself, and for a moment he showed a bit of bitterness.

She thought that she might have really been infected by the stupid god's virus. How come after driving her away like that, when she saw these eyes staring at her tightly, she still had the illusion that she wanted to take them for herself?

A piece of white paper...

Xuechu, who was keenly aware of his own thoughts, wanted to sigh again.

"Don't let go," Rong Xu was stunned by these words. He subconsciously wanted to obey, but...when he thought of the other person leaving in front of him, he lowered his hand but couldn't help but tighten it.

"I won't drive you away," Xue Chu was helpless and chuckled. He placed his fingertips on the lips of the young man in front of him, and before the other party could react, he grabbed both sides and pulled them apart.

"...Really?" Rong Xu blinked and asked again: "Really, you won't drive me away?"

Xuechu let go and pushed the person away angrily, "I'll drive you away, and then what?"

"When I saw you turning around, I caught up with you?"

"...I never do such meaningless things."

Rong Xu was happy again, "Xue Chu...then we can be together again!"

It was as if he had no memory of being left behind at all. Hearing these words, he walked around her hand faster than ever before, then he folded his arms affectionately and rubbed her face in a very strange way. .

Xuechu: "???"

Xue Chu withdrew her hand and glanced at the slimy person, "What unnecessary things have you learned again?"

Rong Xu was confused, "But I saw others doing this?"

After saying that, he held the hand again, repeated the previous action, and said firmly: "That's it!"

Xuechu: "..."

Xuechu began to regret what he said, "What you learned...did you learn from humans? Well...I mean, humanoid creatures."

"..."

She twitched the corner of her mouth and looked at Rong Xu who was even more dazed. Even the last trace of her smile disappeared.

Xue Chu: ...Even if I did something wrong, it probably wouldn't be this serious.

"Did I do something wrong?" Rong Xu finally noticed something in the attitude of the person in front of him, and subconsciously hugged that arm, speaking in a very light voice, "Xue Chu... doesn't like it..."

"No," Xue Chu refused to listen to all the words, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and exhaled again, "I am allergic to the word 'like' now."

She walked forward, temporarily forgetting the little tail following her with her actions, and stopped responding to the other person's words, although even so... Rong Xu was not discouraged at all.

The long journey finally arrived. Xuechu stepped directly into the boundaries of Wufang City, then turned on her toes and pushed open the familiar door with a clear purpose.

The hotel owner seemed very surprised by her sudden arrival, but he only froze for a second, and quickly packed up the tables and chairs for them to check in. "Lord Xuechu..." His voice was respectful. After bringing the good tea, he took the initiative to stand aside. He was in a position that was just a little shorter. He was probably so poisoned by these recent things that he subconsciously Maintained distance.

Xuechu didn't care about this.

She only glanced at the tea and quickly got to the point, "Wufang City is still short of resources, right? The tide of alien beasts is not something that can be cut off once. How about it? Have you figured out how to deal with it in the future?"

"You are right." After hearing this, the hotel owner's face showed a bit of bitterness. He looked at the weak window, and his voice was hoarse by the wind. "We have found a new supply of cyan bluestone. And I also bought a lot of survival supplies with Lord Elvia who stayed here... It's just..."

"only?"

He finally met Xue Chu's eyes, "It's just that these are simply not enough."

"What is piled up here are all rubble that is not accepted. Rather than saying that we are protecting this place, it is better to put it more bluntly... Only because of this place can we exist."

"It's an unstable life, and an environment where you can die for various reasons at any time... I'm not afraid of your ridicule, here, even sleeping peacefully is a luxury."

The hotel owner wiped his eyes, as if they were dried by the cold wind, "But so what, even if you do your best, you will eventually die in the next time."

"...Where can there be gods in this world? It's just the delusions of humble people."

Xue Chu clicked the table, as if she heard some interesting argument. She did not answer, but casually glanced at Rong Xu, who was staring at her closely, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

She remembered again when Rong Xu came to see her.

Where is this place abandoned by God? Obviously... it is the place closest to the gods.

"Lord Xuechu?" Noticing the other party's expression, the innkeeper was a little stunned. Soon, he thought of something, and suddenly picked up the half-drunk wine glass he placed next to him, and apologized: "I drank too much. Don’t be offended if you like to talk nonsense..."

Xuechu smiled.

She sat under the dim light, sitting in the center of her sight, and smiled so calmly.

"A god?" Xue Chu's voice was a little ethereal, "Compared to gods, I have a better way."

The innkeeper's breath hitched.

Xuechu snorted softly, picked up the tea placed in front of him, looked into the water with deep purple eyes, and said in an extremely lazy tone, "Just... do you want to take a gamble?"

"Take everything and just bet on the possibility of turning defeat into victory?"

With a "dong" sound, the empty cup fell to the ground.

"I, I..." The hotel owner wiped the sweat from his face. He didn't know whether it was excitement or panic. His raised eyes were full of red, "...I can't make the decision."

"But!" He stood up straight, his breathing quickening, "As long as it's you, as long as it's you who proposes it - they won't refuse."

"...just like me."

"Ah, then I'll wait for your news," Xuechu glanced at him, accurately took off Rong Xu's hand stretched out from behind, and clasped it on the table without mercy.

"I want to hear the news about your construction of the City Lord's Mansion, even if it's just the simplest building, do you understand?"
