"Without explanation, without reason, how could we be willing, even if we were young and ignorant?"
The man's eyes were red, unable to control his emotions.
He took a deep breath and continued, "After investigation, we found that this explosion was not an accident, it was deliberately caused."
Xu Qian's brows furrowed. Deliberately caused, could it be...
"Don't be surprised, we found irrefutable evidence. Leader's father had predicted this day long ago and recorded a video, teaching us how to do this step by step."
"We have worked for 15 years for this day."
"Fifteen whole years, Xu Qian, do you know what that means?"
From nothing to something, even with Uncle Song's support, it was still difficult.
Xu Qian looked up at the sky, unsure what to say for a moment.
Their thoughts were not aligned, making communication difficult.
"Liandou, you prepared for so long, just to destroy country Z?"
The man's brows were sinister as he said coldly, "Of course not, we have more than one enemy."
Xu Qian closed her eyes, a light breeze gently brushed her cheeks, cold and chilling.
"Xu Qian, you don't understand us. You don't understand, that's why you think it's cruel."
The man carefully pulled the person he loved into his arms and whispered, "If you looked at it from our perspective, there was only darkness before you, and you were the only ray of light."
"Especially... Leader, not only our parents, but also our aunt and uncle died. Their family was not very large, and only the two brothers were left."
Everyone has different experiences. She had not experienced his pain, so it was hard to think from his perspective.
A normal person would think, was it worth it?
To destroy so many people for parents?
But a 10-year-old child only had eyes for his parents.
The young woman sighed, "I understand now, Liandou, thank you for telling me this."
Xu Qian gently pushed him away. Liandou's heart grew cold. Wouldn't she find him too cruel...
The young woman skillfully touched the inside of his elbow. As expected, it was uneven.
One cut after another, healed and then cut again, his hands were ruined.
Xu Qian hugged his arm, carefully leaning her cheek against it, her voice soft, "Liandou, don't cut yourself for me anymore. If I don't have blood, I'll find it myself."
Liandou's whole body trembled. Xu Qian was so gentle?
His throat tightened, and he coughed several times before stopping.
"I have nothing to give you, only this. A little blood won't affect me much."
Xu Qian's eyes flickered, staring intently at the man's slightly evasive, foxy eyes.
"You're allowed to kiss me."
"Huh?"
"Kiss me or not?"
The man's eyes turned red, and he lowered his head to kiss her lips.
The girl's lips were soft, tender, and sweet, like the most delicious cake, addictive once tasted.
Xu Qian squinted, watching his enraptured expression. She was enveloped in his scent.
Their tongues intertwined, their lips met.
She quietly put her hand into his black hair, touching his red ears and hot cheeks, finally resting on his shoulder.
Suddenly, Liandou's body felt lighter. Caught off guard, he was pushed down. The immense centrifugal force made him feel momentarily suffocated.
This was a full 35 floors!
Xu Qian tilted her head, looking at him, not showing any urgency.
In that instant, many emotions flashed in his eyes: complexity, relief, helplessness, love...
But no hatred.
His red lips parted, saying words she couldn't hear.
But she saw them.
He said: I love you, Xu Qian.
I love you, Xu Qian.
I love you, Xu Qian.
Xu Qian let out a laugh, her eyes red, tears welling up in her sockets.
Yes, Liandou, I discovered something.
It turns out, I do like you a little.
