"Sit over here," Xuechu patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the position next to him, without any intention of explaining it.
"Isn't this really awesome?" Flosia smiled and sat crookedly with her chin half propped up. The originally serious atmosphere disappeared from her body again.
But Xuechu could clearly feel the man's relaxed attitude, as if he had confirmed something... It was a bit puzzling.
After Yinxi lowered her head and sat down next to her, Flosia spoke again, "I hope Miss Xuechu can help Xining achieve her wish."
She paused, as if aware of the frailty of her words, and coughed lightly, "Although it is really unreasonable for me to say such things, can Miss Xuechu actually do it?"
"Last time, I could deter the surging beasts just by standing there."
"You are honest." Faced with the "investigation results" clearly presented by the person in front of him, Xue Chu was not surprised. "It is indeed possible, but so what?"
She turned her head and glanced at Yin Xi, who was subconsciously approaching her. She held down his wrist in a semi-comforting manner. After sweeping her eyes across the pair of sea-blue eyes opposite her, she uttered a flat and monotonous tone: "Heh."
"I thought you should have made it clear when you advised Xining."
"What if I can get the bargaining chip you want?" Flosia pinched her chin, her slightly opened eyes were no longer as soft as before, "These days, I haven't gained anything from the Feather Clan. .”
"Do you know what I want?" Xue Chu looked confused.
Flosia smiled, looked at the other pair of eyes that were looking at her at the same time, and asked: "I don't know what you want, I'm just willing to give all the chips I have in my hand."
"What else is hidden in Wufang City... Preservation is always more convenient than destruction, isn't it?"
This time, even Yinxi froze.
He could clearly feel Xue Chu's fingertips on his wrist. They were cold, but they slid gently along with his thoughts.
...She was a little moved.
Yin Xi's face darkened, but at this moment, the words he kept shouting over and over in his heart seemed to be stuck in his throat, and he could not express them easily.
"...Xuechu?"
His eyes moved around uneasily until he saw Rong Xu leaning against Xue Chu's legs, waiting quietly for the answer, and he felt relieved a little.
"It seems that you are more knowledgeable than I thought," Xue Chu looked at Flosia expressionlessly for a long time and said, "If they can really show a side that interests me, I don't mind. Just relax your hands and feet."
"Ah," Flosia's eyes lit up. After a few seconds, she patted her heart again and took a deep breath, "I almost couldn't even speak..."
Xuechu sighed: "It seems I haven't agreed yet? Isn't it too early to relax with your attitude?"
"That's different," Flosia smiled proudly, folded her arms, glanced at Yinxi who looked away, and stopped talking.
She didn't want to completely offend Yin Xi at this time, after all - they all knew that Xue Chu's ability to put forward this condition was already a kind of recognition in itself.
What exactly do you agree with...
Flosia recalled that bloody night at an inappropriate time. At that time, Xue Chu seemed to have shown such an expression.
Miss Xuechu is a willful Miss Xuechu, but she is also a gentle Miss Xuechu.
Thinking of this, Flosia chuckled, and even her farewell movements seemed incompatible with the darker snow outside.
Before leaving, she spread the letter paper she had placed aside again, and this time, not only Xuechu herself, but also Yinxi and Rong Xu who were surrounding her could clearly see the complete part.
——This is indeed a letter asking for help.
Perhaps due to the urgency of time, many parts of this letter have been crossed out.
Even though Yinxi was well prepared, she couldn't hide her surprise when she saw the section asking for help that had been crossed out.
"But, why?" He looked at Xue Chu, who looked calm, in confusion, as if he didn't understand at all how it could be something like this that these people worked so hard to bring up.
It was said to be a plea for help, but it was more like a desperate declaration, and there were even words of thanks in it.
"Why?" Xue Chu put his arms around Yin Xi's still thin shoulders, groping for the dents on the paper with his hands, his expression indifferent, "Because it's Wu Fang City."
A place that was abandoned and never saw the light of day.
Xuechu looked at the endless snow outside the window, picked up the piece of paper again, held it against her fingertips, and showed a rare smile that was not sharp, "It's not annoying at all."
"..." Yinxi lowered his eyes, "Is it worth it? It's obviously... this is the third time."
Xuechu thought for a moment, then hugged the awkward little boy next to her on her lap and smiled without saying a word.
This answer has no meaning in pursuit. At least for Xue Chu, this is not even an equivalent exchange.
"Does Xue Chu want to protect this place?" After hearing this, Rong Xu finally understood her choice. Looking at Yin Xi held in her arms, the hand hanging on one side couldn't help but lean up. "Xuechu is so nice."
"..."
"What do you want to do again?"
Xue Chu, who was well aware of this man's nature, had his eyelids twitching. Before he could say anything, he felt a clear touch from his legs.
"..."
"Want a hug?"
"boom--"
Xue Chu calmly kicked the person to the ground.
"Since you know that the tide of alien beasts is coming, hurry up and collect information. I thought you should know what I need?"
"..."
Rong Xu stood up again and lowered his head slightly, repeating what Xue Chu said in a low voice: "What do you need...?"
For a moment, Rong Xu stared at Yin Xi, who was frozen in his arms, and seemed to have thought of something.
"...?"
"Is this okay?"
Rong Xu, who suddenly transformed into a child, puffed up his cheeks and looked at Yin Xi's position with great covetousness.
Xuechu: "..."
Xuechu felt a little complicated at first. After being silent for a while, he decisively turned his eyes to Tier, who was holding the Wrath Gold Stone to chew on.
"It's better not to eat this," Xue Chu said seriously, "I always feel that it is easy to lose your mind after eating this."
The green-eyed cat was slightly startled, pointed at the wrathful gold stone in his hand, and nodded obediently.
"Then if you eat it..."
"He will become a little loser who can't even understand what he's saying."
Xuechu glanced at the confused Rong Xu with an expressionless face, "Do you have any idea about what I just said?"
Rong Xu: "..."
Rong Xu returned to his adult appearance and stared at Xue Chu without blinking, "The tide of alien beasts... still has at most half a month."
