Looking at Guo Shiyi's stunningly beautiful face, Qin Xiaochuan realized that even though her eyes were still red and the tear tracks on her face hadn't completely dried, she still radiated optimism and cheerfulness. Only then did Qin Xiaochuan remember that she had always been that incredibly strong girl.
"Shiyi, you're so wonderful, better than anyone I could ever imagine. Not only are you beautiful, but you're also understanding, considerate, strong, and brave. I feel so lucky to have met you. Do you think I saved the galaxy in my past life?" Qin Xiaochuan couldn't help but praise her.
Guo Shiyi was overjoyed by Qin Xiaochuan's praise, her earlier sadness vanishing instantly. Her face flushed slightly as she said, "Why are you suddenly so good at praising people? Am I really that good?"
"Of course I am. I don't mean to praise you; I'm just stating a fact. No, I should say you're actually a hundred times better than I described," Qin Xiaochuan said sincerely.
"Hehe." Guo Shiyi's face showed a smug look, and she couldn't help but say, "Actually, you're very good too."
"Then you..." Qin Xiaochuan's heart stirred. He originally wanted to say, "Then be my girlfriend," but he immediately thought of the curse of the Blood Witch Clan, and swallowed the rest of his words.
"What's wrong?" Guo Shiyi looked at him, puzzled.
"It's nothing," Qin Xiaochuan quickly explained. "What I wanted to say is that you're so good to me, it's all worth it, even if it means dying for you."
"Fool, why are you saying such things?" Guo Shiyi quickly interrupted him, saying earnestly, "I hope you will always be well."
"Yes, yes, we'll always be well." Qin Xiaochuan nodded earnestly.
"Okay!" Guo Shiyi said happily, then stretched out her right hand and said, "Let's pinky swear."
Qin Xiaochuan couldn't help but smile knowingly and said, "How can you be so childish, like a little kid?"
"Because I'm a kid myself," Guo Shiyi said, making a face. "Would you like to pinky swear with a kid?"
"Only little kids would pinky swear with other little kids," Qin Xiaochuan said seriously. "And I happen to be a little kid too." As he spoke, he gently hooked his little finger around Guo Shiyi's.
"Hehe." Guo Shiyi was as happy as a child.
"Pinky promise..." Just as Guo Shiyi was seriously saying the pinky promise, she suddenly couldn't help but laugh and said, "We're so childish."
"Didn't you just say you were a child?" Qin Xiaochuan chuckled, finishing the pinky promise, "No changes for a hundred years."
"I don't know, I just suddenly realized I really like this feeling. I was never this childish when I was little," Guo Shiyi said with a giggle.
"You must have been a very considerate and sensible child when you were little," Qin Xiaochuan said, looking into her eyes.
"Yes, because I was too sensible, I didn't dare to be childish." Guo Shiyi couldn't help but feel a little sad when she recalled her childhood.
"Then I want you to always be a child," Qin Xiaochuan said sincerely, holding her hand tightly.
"Okay, sure."
Just as the two finished making their pinky promise, Han Kexin walked up to them and said casually, "It seems you two are having a great chat."
Guo Shiyi grabbed Han Kexin's arm and said, "Thank you, Sister Kexin."
Han Kexin brushed the hair from Guo Shiyi's forehead and said, "Why thank me? It's good enough that you don't blame me for not telling you the truth sooner. You two have to walk your own paths; there's nothing I can do to help."
"Yeah, I know, but Sister Kexin gave me the courage to move forward, hehe." Guo Shiyi said in a slightly coquettish tone.
Han Kexin patted her head, said nothing more, and looked at Qin Xiaochuan, asking, "How is his injury now?"
"Oh, right, I almost forgot. He still has a few wounds to treat." Guo Shiyi quickly let go of Han Kexin's hand, then completely took off Qin Xiaochuan's shirt and helped treat the wounds on his back.
Han Kexin watched the two figures, found a rock not far away and sat down. Then she took out the red Jade of Inspiration from her chest and held it in her hand. She then stared at the moon in the sky, lost in thought.
After Guo Shiyi treated all of Qin Xiaochuan's wounds, the four of them spent the night on the beach, and then took the "Sea Dragon" back to XY City early the next morning.
After returning to XY City, the four of them went back to Han Kexin's villa. As soon as they entered the house, Xiaoying jumped up and down and threw herself into Qin Xiaochuan's arms, saying happily, "Uncle Xiaochuan, you're finally back! I missed you so much!"
Qin Xiaochuan picked her up from the ground, walked to the sofa and sat down, saying, "We've only been gone a few days, it hasn't been that long."
"But Xiaoying is so bored at home all by herself. She wants Uncle Xiaochuan to come back and play with her every day," Xiaoying said, pouting.
"Don't you have Kaiming and Feifei at home to keep you company?" Qin Xiaochuan pinched her cheek.
"They're not fun at all. Kaiming just plays video games all day, and Feifei just watches TV all day. They're not fun at all," Xiaoying complained.
Qin Xiaochuan smiled helplessly and said, "Then how about we go and give them a good talking-to?"
"Great!" Xiaoying cheered, raising her hand. Then, her eyes darted around, and she added, "But before that, can we eat something delicious first?"
"Haha, are you craving something? What have you been eating these past few days?" Qin Xiaochuan asked. Speaking of which, Han Kexin had actually left Xiaoying alone at home for so many days; she was really quite careless.
"I know how to order takeout, my aunt taught me," Xiaoying said proudly, taking out her phone.
"Xiaoying is such a good girl." Qin Xiaochuan gently stroked her cheek and praised her sincerely.
"By the way, Uncle Xiaochuan, I've prepared a gift for you these past few days," Xiaoying suddenly said mysteriously.
"Oh, really? What gift did Xiaoying prepare for me?" Qin Xiaochuan asked curiously.
"Wait for me!" Xiaoying let go of Qin Xiaochuan and ran upstairs happily. She came downstairs again in a short while, carrying a thin book in her hand.
Xiaoying handed the book to Qin Xiaochuan and said proudly, "Uncle Xiaochuan, look, this is a little comic I drew. It's about an adventure I went on with Uncle Xiaochuan."
Qin Xiaochuan took the comic book and turned the pages one by one. The illustrations were childish and simple, but Qin Xiaochuan could still tell that she had drawn a story set in the Land of Witches.
"Xiaoying's drawing is so beautiful! Is this a gift for me?" Qin Xiaochuan patted the little girl's head.
"Of course!" Xiaoying said happily. "I'll draw more in the future, stories about our adventure in the snowy mountains."
"Xiaoying, can you draw a few for me too?" Guo Shiyi asked Xiaoying from the side.
"Of course!" Xiaoying replied sweetly, "but I have to finish drawing Uncle Xiaochuan first."
