"Okay." Ning An nodded and watched the two of them leave.
After Xiao Liangsheng and Luo Ying left, Ning An walked towards the purple bamboo forest.
She had to tell her teacher about Baili Yaotian eventually.
After walking for a while, Ning An arrived at the purple bamboo forest. However, she saw something she had never seen before.
Zi Chen was sitting on the ground with his back against a green bamboo. In front of him was a broken wine jar that had been emptied. Murong Lan stood to the side with a worried expression on her face.
When Murong Lan saw Ning An, she jogged over to Ning An's side.
"Ning An, go talk to Zi Chen."
Ning An frowned when she saw Zi Chen gulping down wine. "Ms. Murong, what's wrong with him?"
This was the first time Xiao Liangsheng and Zi Chen had met. Even if Xiao Liangsheng had provoked Zi Chen, Zi Chen should not have been in such a sorry state.
"I don't know either." Murong Lan turned around to look at Zi Chen and said, "After I chased him here, he started drinking without saying a word. I thought he was in a bad mood. Since Zi Chen can hold his liquor well, I didn't stop him. I didn't expect him to get so drunk."
Ning An walked over and snatched the wine jar from Zi Chen's hands. She tilted her head back and downed the rest of the wine.
Ning An set the wine jar aside and sat down across from Zi Chen. She chuckled and said, "It's so boring to drink alone."
Zi Chen smiled when he heard that. "That's right."
Only one person …
"Ning An, do you know what it's like to be alone?" Zi Chen took out two more jars of wine from the system space. He placed one in front of him and gave the other to Ning An.
Ning An was stunned when she heard Zi Chen's question. Then she replied, "I know."
Her parents passed away when she was six years old. Even their bodies were not found. Because she inherited their superpowers, she was brought to the base and began training.
The training was extremely tough. No one could talk to each other. During those three years, she was always alone. When she was ten years old, the base sent four children who were about her age. They said that they were selected from other places.
The newcomers were quite special. They often used the excuse that they didn't know how to use their superpowers to talk to her. Slowly, she got used to it.
But that year, her only family member, her grandmother, passed away.
It was as if she was isolated again. Before her grandmother died, she saw her for the last time. It was also at that time that her grandmother gave her the ring.
Her grandmother's death and the company of Xu Guang and the others made her value the people in her heart even more.
So in the explosion later, she gave up her chance to escape and sent Xu Guang and the others out.
"Teacher, if you don't want to be alone, then look at the people around you." After Ning An finished speaking, he picked up the wine jug and took a big gulp.
"All these years, I've only seen one person," Zi Chen said with a smile. "People's hearts are hard to predict."
"That makes sense." Ning An and Zi Chen looked at each other and laughed.
Murong Lan looked at the two of them and shook her head. She smiled helplessly.
Zi Chen, do you have a deep wound in your heart?
She thought back to the time when she saved him. After he woke up, he was so vigilant that he almost killed her. At that time, he was like a wild beast.
So when she saw Zi Chen's attitude towards Feng Wuxie, she was puzzled.
She knew very well that Zi Chen's heart was frozen. All these years, she was the only one who could get close to him.
