Chapter 837: A Way!
“Hello, grandpa.”
Unlike Gu Lingyue, Rui Mengqi’s sea of consciousness was very stable as she had reached the peak of the Master Rank. Although she did not know what this space was, she greeted Revelation politely upon seeing him.
“What a polite little girl. You make it a bit difficult for this old man to speak.” Revelation smiled and shook his head.
Rui Mengqi’s heart sank after hearing Revelation’s words and seeing his expression, but she put on a smile. “It doesn’t matter, grandpa. Just tell me.”
In addition to her ‘foolishly cute’ character, Rui Mengqi was particularly considerate. She never projected her negative feelings upon others and always quietly bore them alone.
“Are you really willing to follow the smelly boy for the rest of your life without status?” Revelation asked.
Rui Mengqi was dumbstruck. It was impossible for Bai Xiaofei to tell others about this, so there was only one explanation: Revelation got this from his divination.
After the surprise passed, Rui Mengqi nodded seriously. “As long as I can stay beside him, I can be his lifelong maid without complaints.”
Her tone was firm as ever. Although she had dreamt about better results, she was well aware of her abilities. The Master Rank was likely her limit, while it was just a starting point for those around Bai Xiaofei…
“Can you tell me why?” Revelation seemed curious. Asking this question, he carefully examined Rui Mengqi’s expression for any changes.
“If it wasn’t for him, I would have been sold again. He gave me a chance to live free, made me a puppet master, taught me a lot of things, and even brought me into a group where no one looks down on me. Although I often make mistakes, they never complain. Before this, the word ‘future’ was only a far-fetched dream for me, but now, I can even choose my own future. I want to repay this kindness with my whole life.”
This was the first time Rui Mengqi said so many things in a clear order. This idea was not improvised, but only finalized after a long time. This was her truest self. Being Bai Xiaofei’s companion was already her greatest happiness.
“I see.” Revelation smiled as he seemed to have gotten a satisfactory answer, but he quickly turned serious. “What if this old man tells you that you may die because of your choice?”
The topic instantly became heavy. However, Rui Mengqi laughed.
“If I can die for him, it may just be the happiest thing in my life, because then he will remember me all his life.”
Death, for Rui Mengqi, had never been something to be scared of. She even looked forward to it!
“Hahaha! Happiest thing, huh? Very good!”
Revelation threw back his head and laughed loudly. For the first time, he was approving of a girl of her age.
“Since this is what you have chosen, I will show you a way. Should you decide to embark on it, you will have to part with the smelly boy for a while, but when you return to him, you will become an indispensable person!” Having said that, Revelation paused before asking slowly, “Are you willing to believe in this old man?”
