Because they couldn't get them, no one could get them.
What did that mean …
Was it because they were all top talents that everyone wanted but didn't know how to distribute them?
Was it because they were afraid that some countries would develop their technology and economy faster if they got them?
Was it because countries had to keep each other in check, so they had to be isolated?
It wasn't because they were dangerous people?
Li Ya and the others felt suffocated when the truth was revealed, and they couldn't say anything.
It was also the first time they realized that the world had always been cruel.
It wasn't just countries that were at war. There were also invisible killings in peaceful places, but this time, it was a group of people who were sacrificed.
But this was a country, a matter between politics and governance. It was not something they could interfere with.
This time, even Xia Xinghe couldn't do anything.
She could easily defeat any enemy, even He Lanyuan.
However, she couldn't defeat the system or the competition between countries. This was the first time Xia Xinghe felt deeply defeated.
Even though she had resolved the crisis on Earth, she didn't feel the slightest bit happy or proud.
Instead, she felt that she had failed.
Xia Xinghe sat by the fountain in the courtyard of the embassy, staring at a spot on the ground in a daze.
Xi Mubai, who was wearing a white shirt and had a perfect figure, walked towards her slowly.
His hands were in his pockets, and every step he took was leisurely, but his deep eyes were focused.
Only when he was looking at her would his eyes have the warmth of the sun.
And what Xi Mubai liked the most was Xia Xinghe's confident look. He hoped that she would be confident and happy for the rest of her life, not as depressed as she was now.
Even if there was no emotion on her face, the side profile of her beautiful face still looked very beautiful.
But he knew that she was unhappy.
Xi Mubai had just sat down beside her when Xia Xinghe smelled the faint scent of grass and sunlight. It was a scent that belonged exclusively to Xi Mubai. It smelled nice and clean.
Xia Xinghe turned to look at him and said, "I'm fine."
The man's sexy lips curled up. "Why are you daydreaming here if you're fine?"
"I just want to be alone."
Xi Mubai approached her intimately and murmured, "Can't you give me a chance to comfort you?"
"…" Xia Xinghe couldn't help but laugh.
She nodded and said, "Alright, I do feel a little bored, but I'm really fine."
This time, it was Mu Bai's turn to laugh. "Then I won't comfort you. How about being a listener? You can tell me whatever you want to say. "
"I don't have anything to say." Xia Xinghe shook his head. "I know that there's nothing we can do about it."
"Yes, there are many things that we can't do anything about, but at least you saved them. You've brought them back to Earth. At least they've ended their endless fake lives. You've done well enough, but you can't do it perfectly. But this world is not perfect to begin with. "
"I know." Xia Xinghe hugged his knees. "It's because I know it too well that I feel helpless. Sometimes, it's not a good thing to see everything too thoroughly. "
"Then carry on with your life." Xi Mubai looked at her deeply.
Xia Xinghe did not answer. Could she be so muddle-headed?
"I don't want you to be too tired, and this is not your responsibility, nor is it your fault."
