CHAPTER 567: CHAPTER FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SEVEN: FOR YOU

Talking with Qin Zhan went on until midnight, and even after hanging up the phone, Bi Xia still couldn’t sleep. She lay quietly on the bed, her eyes fixed on the ceiling.

[Your Majesty? Why aren’t you asleep yet?] 007 asked.

Hearing 007’s question, Bi Xia was taken aback for a moment, then she smiled slightly, ’I can’t sleep. Speaking of which, I don’t even know if you guys need to sleep.’

was obviously surprised by Bi Xia’s question. It took some time to respond with a laugh, [Your Majesty, your mental sea supports the system, so when your mental sea falls asleep, we also take that opportunity to sleep. Simply put, when you sleep, we sleep.]

’Oh?’ Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, ’I never thought it would be like that.’

’So if I enter the space, in reality, I would be asleep, but in actuality, I would be studying in the space. Does that mean you are asleep or not asleep...’

After saying that, Bi Xia shook her head, ’No, it should be that you’re not asleep, because my mental sea is active in the space. But won’t you get tired?’

’If you get tired, what would it look like? I get tired and take a nap, but if you get tired, you have to wait until I sleep for you to rest...’

[Your Majesty,] 007 interrupted Bi Xia, [You are us, and we are you. If you are tired, we are tired. If you are happy, we are happy. Although we divide into different entities, in essence, we are you.]

[And Your Majesty, you are worried about Qin Zhan now, right?] 007 directly pointed out Bi Xia’s concern.

Bi Xia paused for a moment and slowly nodded, ’Yes, I always feel like today he seemed really tired.’

007, looking at the half-revealed information from the system investigation, frowned tightly. Qin Zhan’s information was obviously overwritten. What that half-hidden information was, 007 had some vague guesses. But just looking at the visible family information alone was really worrisome.

thought, for Qin Zhan to survive, he must be quite capable indeed. No wonder he is now Mr. Qin of Beijing.

But... 007 started to hesitate whether to tell Bi Xia, considering how worried Bi Xia was about Qin Zhan, [Your Majesty, I found some things about Qin Zhan...]

’Forget it, 007,’ Bi Xia shook her head, ’If I want to know, I will ask Fourth Brother. Besides, if Fourth Brother wants to tell me, he will.’

[Then why didn’t you ask?]

Recalling all the inexplicable things she faced, just the fact that she had a gender disguiser was puzzling enough. But Qin Zhan didn’t ask. He gave her space, letting her speak when she was ready.

This ample trust warmed Bi Xia’s heart. Similarly, she would give Qin Zhan this warmth in return, neither prying nor questioning. As long as they trusted each other, everything would be fine.

[If that’s the case, why are you still so worried about him?] 007 didn’t understand. If you’re worried, why not find out the truth? Choosing to believe, why worry?

Bi Xia chuckled softly, ’007, you silly thing. Emotions are just this complicated. Qin Zhan and I have never experienced love, nor do we know what it’s like. But we both know what kind of love we want.’

’Love, it mainly depends on the person.’

’For some people, falling in love is about enjoying the process, seeking novelty. When the novelty wears off, they go looking for others until they want to settle down. But then they may find that they no longer feel the excitement of being in love.’

’For others, falling in love is about a lifetime commitment, not just a fleeting moment. Such love is not easy; it can lead to more conflicts than the former kind, so it requires mutual trust.’

’I worry about Qin Zhan, not because I don’t trust him. On the contrary, it is because I trust him that I worry about him. Qin Zhan seems like an iron man, making me feel he is omnipotent. But today, when he said he felt a bit unwell...’

Her heart ached.

Qin Zhan is not a god. His omnipotence is something he worked hard for. He is human, and he can feel pain and get tired...

Bzzz—

The phone rang. Bi Xia picked up her phone.

Fourth Brother: Thank goodness for you

She gently kissed the phone... Qin Zhan, I will become stronger. Before, it was for my family, but now, it’s for you.
