The first thing Gong Shirao heard him say when he woke up was this, and her eyes suddenly reddened.
If it had been before, she would certainly have thought that he wanted to distance himself from her, which is why he said something so harsh.
But at this moment, she only felt that he said it on purpose because he was worried she would feel guilty.
Just like during the earthquake last time, he said he would save anyone. It was just because he was closest to her, with an instinct that compelled him to save her...
"But what can I do? I just want to dedicate myself to you." Gong Shirao pretended to be nonchalant, suppressing her inner emotions, smiling as she looked at him.
Roguish, even somewhat shameless.
Zhan Nanjue was slightly stunned, this version of Gong Shirao was somewhat different from usual. She was usually obedient and sensible, seen by others as proud and aloof, but in his eyes, just a child who hadn't grown up.
And now...
"Stop it." Zhan Nanjue spoke.
