Quan Jue and Chi Jiao returned the way they came.
Along the way, Quan Jue didn't say a word. His expression was indifferent, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Chi Jiao could tell at a glance that he had something on his mind.
Just as she was about to walk out of the forest, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Quan Jue stopped as well and looked at her sideways. He finally asked, "Why aren't you walking?"
"Brother Quan, what's wrong?" Chi Jiao asked in return. Her large black gem-like eyes stared straight at him.
"Nothing," Quan Jue said indifferently.
"You have something on your mind," Chi Jiao said with certainty. "Brother Quan, don't hide it from me. If you have anything to say, just say it. It doesn't feel good to keep it in."
Quan Jue couldn't help but curl his rosy lips when he saw her serious expression and her indescribable naivety and cuteness.
Reaching out to pinch her face, Quan Jue said softly, "I'm really fine."
He just felt that Jiaojiao had many people protecting her and didn't seem to need him.
This feeling was very bad.
He selfishly wanted to be the only hero in her heart. Only then would she only have eyes and heart for him and rely on him wholeheartedly.
Even when Gu Xian had settled everything by himself and didn't need him to do anything.
That feeling became even stronger.
He wanted to hide Jiaojiao so that only he could see her. He alone would be enough to pamper her.
He could also protect Jiaojiao very well and not rely on anyone.
He was that selfish.
Chi Jiao didn't know that Quan Jue was thinking about this. She raised her hand and held his hand on her face. Then, she tiptoed and kissed his thin lips gently. "Brother Quan, Ding Fu and his younger brother will never be able to speak again. Shen Liao and Gu Xian won't tell anyone that you're an Esper. The two of them are trustworthy." “
"You trust them that much?" Quan Jue lowered his eyes and stared deeply at her.
"We grew up together." Chi Jiao revealed a clear and innocent smile as she blinked her dark doe eyes at him. "That's why I trust them."
When Quan Jue heard that, he felt like he had swallowed several lemons.
The girl's smiling face looked innocent and as clean as a piece of white paper, which made him feel that the selfish thoughts in his heart were dark and perverted.
However, those thoughts took root and sprouted in his heart day by day, and he could no longer dispel them.
Quan Jue looked away, hiding the dark glint in his eyes. He said indifferently, "I understand."
"Of course, the person I trust the most is still you, Brother Quan." His arm was suddenly hugged by the girl. Quan Jue could clearly feel a ball of softness squeezing against his arm, causing his body to freeze.
He turned to look at Chi Jiao and happened to see her looking up at him with admiration.
Then, he heard her speak again.
"After all, every girl can only have one hero. Brother Quan, you are my hero. "
Her soft voice was like a burning star that instantly poured into Quan Jue's heart.
This scene was destined to be engraved in his soul, deep into his bones, so that no matter when he thought about it, his heart would be as hot as it was now, and his blood would boil.
He couldn't help but lower his head and gently kiss the top of her head.
Actually, she was his hero.
The unparalleled hero who had saved him from the darkness.
