Chapter 687 - An odd superhuman (2/2)

‘But which supernatural being would behave the way you did? So what if you’re a superhuman? What’re you trying to achieve by singing those nursery rhymes? Even if you’re a superhuman, you’re still an odd superhuman!‘

Along the way, Ren Xiaosu asked Yang Xiaojin in a whisper, “Do you find it very embarrassing that I’m behaving like this?”

Actually, even Ren Xiaosu himself found it quite embarrassing. He was clearly a normal person, yet he had to sing those nursery rhymes every day.

But he had no choice but to do the quests. Since he was going to do it, he would complete them perfectly.

Ren Xiaosu was not too worried about anything else; he was mainly concerned that Yang Xiaojin’s impression of him would worsen.

Yang Xiaojin smirked slightly and replied, “It was quite cute.”

“Really?” Ren Xiaosu wondered.

Yang Xiaojin asked, “Are you doing all this because you gave me the black sniper rifle?”

“Mhm.” Ren Xiaosu nodded. “It’s gonna go on for seven days. This is the price that I have to pay for giving away the black sniper rifle.”

“Thank you,” Yang Xiaojin suddenly said in a serious tone. She felt that since Ren Xiaosu was considered a very powerful supernatural being now, he must have known there would be a trade-off before giving the black sniper rifle to her, yet he still did it.

Most relationships in this world were just built on empty promises. The relationships between adults tend to be more like a restrained admiration, with no one side truly able to selflessly sacrifice for the other.

Some people said that liking someone meant going all-out for them, while loving someone required restraint. However, Yang Xiaojin had her own thoughts on this.

In her opinion, love was about going all-out for a person, while liking was a form of restraint.

As young people would not know about restraint and self-preservation, they would go all-out and love without hesitation.

However, it was different for adults. If they liked someone but did not get a response, they would just leave. “When I take a step towards you but you step back, I shall just turn around and leave.” Such feelings that were constantly restrained would never blossom into love.

Therefore, there was no such thing as love in the world of adults, only restrained admiration.

Right now, Yang Xiaojin was feeling a little regretful that she had accepted the black sniper rifle, but she could also feel Ren Xiaosu’s sincerity when she saw he had no choice but to put away his pride and pretend to be crazy because he had given her his power.

Yang Xiaojin said, “In the future, I’ll sing with you if you want to sing, and I’ll go wherever you go no matter what you want to do.”

Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt that singing nursery rhymes was not that embarrassing anymore.

When they set up camp that night, Cheng Yu looked at the others in the campsite with a numb expression. He did not know if it was because of Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin’s influence, but someone actually suggested holding a gathering at night. Seeing everyone putting on a lively talent show at the campsite, Cheng Yu’s assistants were even starting to get a little eager.

“What are you going to perform?” Cheng Yu asked one of his assistants.

“I can whistle….”

“If you even dare think about performing, I’m gonna deduct your salary this month.”

“Alright then,” the assistant said reluctantly. As a result, the other three assistants gave up on the idea as well.
