Chapter 205.3: First Disagreeable Word and Teasing Starts (1/2)
Hearing his highly concerned words, Qing Yu was taken aback a moment before she smiled slightly and shook her head. “I am fine now.”
Xi Zhan Chen was silent for awhile before he suddenly asked in a low whisper: “Back then, why did you go block that strike for me?”
Qing Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at the man. “Speaking of that, I would really like to ask you. You intentionally went to aggravate that dark zombie to draw its attention onto yourself. Were you trying to give me a chance to run away at the cost of your own life?”
Xi Zhan Chen hesitated a moment before he acknowledged with a soft “Mm.”
“Why? We were merely two strangers who met in passing that day. Or were you always so righteous and valiant t raise your sword to help others all along?” Qing Yu could not help but smile and ask.
“Only with you.” Xi Zhan Chen’s eyes narrowed. “Moreover, you saved my life once before, so that makes you my saviour.”
[They were not just strangers who had met for the first time.]
At least that was the case for him, where he could feel right in his bones a familiarity towards her, like they had known each other for many years. Moreover, to him, she was a very important existence, like she existed in a memory that he had lost before.
“You do not need to feel like you owe me anything. Everything is determined by fate and karma. You were destined to encounter this tribulation and meant to meet me to help you avert the crisis. It’s all predestined.” Qing Yu opened her mouth to say.
Xi Zhan Chen twitched a corner of his mouth. “Maybe…..”
She did not know whether she was imagining things, but she just could not help feeling that Xi Zhan Chen’s words were hiding a deeper meaning behind them, as they seemed to be filled with a twinge of helplessness.
