Chapter 52 (1/2)

Ma… Ma… Marry who?!

Shi Qing’s brain finally tripped, and completely lost power.

Was he being proposed to? And it was on a bed, by a ten year old little doll, and a male one at that, he got proposed to!?

Furthermore, he didn’t ask to be proposed to, he proposed!

Holy shit! But the key point is that he’s bent! Straighten it quickly!

Shi Qing’s face was slightly red, but he had still come back to his senses. Cough…Qin lil’ Mo was only ten years old, how did he know what getting married was? He probably just said it for fun!

If… If you took it seriously then you’re stupid!

Shi Qing transformed into an understanding older brother and spoke in an earnest tone, “Xiao Mo, you’re still young, so you don’t know what it means to get married. If you marry someone, you have to marry a girl, you can’t marry a guy!”

Qi Zimo did not refute him, but the hand holding his body tightened even more.

Shi Qing was afraid that he would be blindsided, and was about to explain it in an even simpler way.

However, Qi Zimo spoke right then, “I know it, you hate me.”

Stuffy and hoarse, his voice was tinged with sorrow.

Shi Qing’s heart felt like it had been tied up by that sentence so tightly that it hurt. He quickly said, “How could I?”

Qi Zimo raised his head and watched him with his black eyes, “You hate that I’m too young, that I’m just a child. I want to be with you forever, but you just think it’s a joke!”

Shi Qing was stunned.

Qi Zimo rarely became so agitated. Though one of his arms were out of service, his other arm was still very strong, not at all like that of a child’s.

No… He’s still a child. No matter how deep his eyes are, the mistiness in them could still be seen. He put up a strong front, but still, he could not wipe away that shred of fear at the depths.

Shi Qing watched him, and without surprise, his heart softened.

He held Qi Zimo softly and spoke softly in his ears, “I don’t hate you, you’re an outstanding person, you’re the most outstanding person I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Qi Zimo buried his face in his neck. Because of those words, his eyes were sparkling, and a soft pink could also be seen colouring his snowy white face.

He asked for his commitment, “Shi Qing, promise me.”

Shi Qing did not hesitate this time. With just a slight sigh, he said, “Okay, I’ll promise you.”

Even though pain was tugging at his arm, Qi Zimo still felt a sense of warmth he had never felt before. It came from another person, and as if his heart had attached to his, he felt so very reassured, and also filled with satisfaction at the same time.

Since he was there, he felt stronger, and even if he had to face the suffering of hell, he would still be fearless.

He would definitely grow to become a powerful warrior. Then he would be able to protect him in his embrace, and keep him in his heart.

After all, he was just a child, more so one that had been injured and also greatly impacted by what went on in the afternoon. After he received his sincere promise, Qi Zimo fell asleep.

In contrast, Shi Qing did not feel as sleepy. With his head cocked over to the side, he looked at the boy in front of his eyes. From his small and tender face, traces of his glorious adulthood could already be seen.

When I grow up, I’ll marry you.

He did take it as a joke, but he couldn’t help but keep those words in his heart.

He had never seen himself as clearly as he did now. The heart within his chest had already been forcefully invaded by another person when he didn’t realize it, and would be occupied by them forever.

He leaned in close to Qi Zimo, and landed a trembling kiss on top of his pale forehead. With his eyes closed, and himself as nervous as if he were an immature teen going through his first love, he spoke in a voice that was soft, yet lingering, “Qin Mo, I like you.”

The thoughts from the depths of his heart that would never be heard anyone, he spat them out without any defences up under the night. Like a fairy under the moon, dancing freely, swaying so tenderly, so purely, a scene so perfect it could move the world.

After a good night’s sleep, Shi Qing had a rare chance to wake up very early.

When he turned around, Qi Zimo had actually woken up earlier than him. Here he even wanted to wait on this young master! He never would have thought that this young master would be more diligent than him!

After finishing his bath, Qi Zimo came in while Yan Qi followed behind him with a food trolley.

Firstly, Shi Qing carefully examined Qi Zimo’s arm and nagged him a little. Then, he even specially looked through his breakfast. When he found that there was nothing he could not eat, he finally calmed down.

After having their breakfast, Shi Qing hesitated for a moment, but he still requested a leave from school.

Even though it was close to their examination month and the courses were all tense, they were all rushing towards their important final assault, but Shi Qing still could not stop worrying about Qi Zimo. He was worried that if he went to class like this, his mind would end up with a bunch of unnecessary thoughts.

What’s more, Xia Nuo’s work in school was solid, and Shi Qing had also been combing through his studies without halt, and with the presence of his ‘clear and never forgetting memory’, he was quite confident about passing the exam.

So, he decided to just take the day off.

When Qi Zimo found out, a smile finally emerged in his face. It was so shallow and light that it made him appear even more obedient and adorable.

When the two were together, their morning passed by almost in the blink of an eye. When it was lunch time, Shi Qing finally remembered a thought that he had been interrupted from last night.

He couldn’t ask… No matter how strong Qi Zimo was, he was hurt after all, was it really good to pursue that issue with him?

Even so, Shi Qing still urged him seriously, highlighting things such as “don’t worry about being too young, if someone bullies you you have to fight back, whether it’s an adult or not, you have to dodge as long as you’re able to, no matter what your safety is the most important!”.

And Qi Zimo had also nodded his head. As for what happened, he mentioned not a single word of it.

Shi Qing could only give up. When they were taking their afternoon nap, he changed Qi Zimo’s bandages and reapplied the medicine. Because of his strengthened physique, his ability to recover was very strong. The wound that looked very brutal previously had gradually healed, but because it no longer bled, that horrifying wound was even more obvious. On his fair arm, it looked like a savage dragon, it was very terrifying.

Fortunately for Shi Qing, there would not be a scar due to his physical strengthening; if it did leave a scar on such an obvious spot, it would look terrible when he grew up in the future!

After reenergizing in the afternoon, Shi Qing thought about his own dimension. He wanted to take this time to enter it to experiment a little, but he did not just treat Qi Zimo as a kid, and told him directly about his dimension.
