Hearing this, He Xi felt a lump in her throat.
All the emotions that had been suppressed in my heart for the past few days suddenly burst forth.
Her eyes were red-rimmed, and her voice trembled slightly.
"I...I'm just scared..."
"I'm afraid I'll never see you again."
She finally revealed her deepest fears.
Lin Ci's heart stirred slightly as he looked at her tearful appearance.
He softened his tone and his voice became gentle.
"Rest assured, I will meet you again in thousands of years."
"Then, 30,000 years later, I will be in the same space and time as you."
This promise made He Xi suddenly raise her head.
"really?"
A glimmer of hope rekindled in her eyes.
"God does not speak in jest."
Lin Ci's answer was beyond question.
Having received an affirmative answer, the light in He Xi's eyes quickly dimmed.
She lowered her head, her voice barely audible.
"But... thousands of years, tens of thousands of years..."
"too long."
"I can……"
She stopped mid-sentence.
Lin Ci looked at her and asked softly.
"What can you do?"
A charming blush rose on He Xi's cheeks, and even her ears became burning hot.
She lowered her head even further and whispered the last three words in a voice only she could hear.
"...I will miss you."
Chapter 118 Subduing He Xi (Three-in-One Chapter)
(I'm such an idiot, guys. I set the timer for the wrong date yesterday. It was supposed to be for three chapters, but only one chapter was set to the right date.)
(I'll add those two chapters to this one, and as usual, I'll update three times today.)
......
Inside the tent, all was silent.
After saying that, He Xi lowered her head even further, not daring to look at Lin Ci.
She felt her heart pounding wildly in her chest, almost breaking free of its restraints.
Lin Ci looked at her slightly trembling shoulders and listened to those three words, barely audible, and chuckled softly.
Of course he could tell.
This woman, hailed as the most brilliant mind in the Angelic Civilization, hides a heart that has long been captivated by him beneath her calm and intellectual exterior.
However, he did not expect that He Xi, who was always reserved, would express his feelings so directly.
Lin Ci patted the bed next to him.
His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable command.
He Xi's body stiffened for a moment.
She slowly raised her head, the blush on her cheeks spreading to her snow-white neck.
She didn't dare look into Lin Ci's eyes, but hesitantly moved her feet, step by step, until she reached the bedside.
Those few steps felt longer to her than crossing a galaxy.
She carefully sat down next to Lin Ci, her body ramrod straight, her hands nervously gripping the hem of her clothes.
"look at me."
Lin Ci's voice rang out again.
He Xi took a deep breath, as if using all her strength, before finally raising her eyes to meet those deep eyes.
There was a playful look in those eyes that she couldn't understand.
"You have developed a love for your god; this is forbidden love, don't you know that?"
Lin Ci's tone was calm, but it made He Xi's heart sink to the bottom instantly.
She thought Lin Ci was angry.
She actually harbored blasphemous thoughts towards her own god.
This fear instantly overwhelmed all shyness and excitement.
He Xi had no idea that her best friend Liang Bing had already slept with this "god" in front of her.
She's been following Lin Ci around like glue these past few days, so Liang Bing hasn't been able to find a chance to come over.
Therefore, in He Xi's mind, Lin Ci was still the supreme, holy and inviolable one and only god.
"I'm so sorry, my God! I... I didn't mean that!"
She frantically tried to explain, but didn't know how, and her words became incoherent.
"I just...I just..."
Seeing her on the verge of tears, Lin Ci's smile widened even more.
DouDou, this bookworm with exceptional intelligence but somewhat clueless emotional intelligence, is indeed quite interesting.
However, judging from her appearance, if we keep teasing her, she'll probably be so ashamed that she'll want to crawl into a hole in the ground.
Lin Ci didn't say anything more, but just looked at her quietly.
His silence, in He Xi's eyes, was a harbinger of an impending outburst of anger.
She genuinely thought Lin Ci was angry.
She couldn't let the gods be angered by her overstepping her bounds.
He Xi suddenly tried to stand up, preparing to kneel down and apologize to Lin Ci in the most formal manner.
She had just propped herself up.
A hand suddenly pressed down on her shoulder, pushing her back onto the bed.
An irresistible force arrived.
Immediately afterwards, her lips felt a moist, warm touch.
He Xi's eyes widened instantly.
Her brain, that super engine capable of predicting the birth and death of the universe, completely shut down at this moment.
Time seems to have stopped.
Space itself seemed to freeze.
She felt like she was about to stop breathing.
She was kissed by Lin Ci.
The god she revered, worshipped, and even dared not look directly at kissed her.
After the initial shock, an unprecedented ecstasy erupted like a volcanic eruption, instantly overwhelming all her reason.
At this moment, all of that was forgotten.
He Xi no longer cared whether Lin Ci was angry or not; she stretched out her arms and hugged Lin Ci tightly.
It was as if she wanted to meld herself into his body.
She responded awkwardly but passionately.
A strand of silver thread hung between the two, creating an ambiguous atmosphere that made one's heart flutter.
He Xi's face turned as red as if it were about to bleed, her silver eyes always sparkling with wisdom.
At this moment, the water glistens and is shrouded in a beautiful mist.
The candlelight inside the tent flickered gently, casting long, intertwined shadows of the two people.
Moonlight streamed through the gaps, illuminating her slightly open collar.
Under the moonlight, that snow-white skin gleamed with a warm, ivory-like luster.
Lin Ci's fingers gently traced her burning cheeks.
He Xi closed her eyes, her body trembling slightly.
Lin Ci leaned down and whispered in her ear.
The next second, He Xi let out a suppressed moan.
The candlelight inside the tent was extinguished by a gentle breeze.
Only the cool moonlight from outside the window remained, quietly spilling onto the messy bed.
The next morning.
The first ray of sunlight shone through the gaps in the tent, illuminating the dust inside.
He Xi slowly opened her eyes.
She felt as if her body had fallen apart, every inch of her skin bearing the marks of last night's frenzy.
