You handed your hand over, and Shen Xinghui immediately smiled and held your hand in his palm.

His hands aren't particularly big, but they're big enough to hold yours.

It is also at this point that I can truly have a relatively long period of alone time and a very quiet space.

You are truly feeling the touch of each other with your heart.

Shen Xinghui's hands were warm and his small movements were gentle.

His fingers would gently rub your skin, and occasionally, you would brush against the thin calluses on his hands from years of using the sword.

Grabbing his hand out of curiosity, Shen Xinghui drove a few light spots to his hand, illuminating the position you wanted to see.

You were suddenly overwhelmed with emotion, and poked the slightly hardened patch of skin with your fingertips twice, "It really is."

Shen Xinghui's voice was gentle as he spoke slowly, "I've been dreaming about a lot of things that happened there over the past couple of days. It seems like the calluses formed after you activated me and I used the sword again."

"Really?" You were shocked. "Then after I activated you, were there any other changes in you?"

"Yes." Shen Xinghui put his face close to you and tilted his head up, "Look carefully at my chin, is there a little stubble?"

You held the little light spot over to yourself, observed it carefully for a while, and opened your eyes wide in surprise, "Really!"

"It was the same there. After being activated, I started growing a beard and my hair started to grow longer." Shen Xinghui looked at you affectionately, "So, I need to shave every day and trim my hair frequently."

The curve of his mouth became softer. "My life was given to me by you after I met you."

These words made your heart tremble.

Use your thumb to touch the stubble that has only a little bit of bluish color and is a little scratchy.

The fact that the stars are right next to you becomes more concrete and real.

Suddenly, tears well up in your eyes, but you can't understand why.

I just felt very touched and very sad.

Shen Xing replied in a panic, "Ah, partner, you're not used to my beard, right? Back then, I always cleaned up my beard before you came to see me."

He quickly covered the lower half of his face with his hands, lowered his head and muttered, "I'll take care of it. I won't let you see it again. I'm sorry, I..."

You quickly sat up and held Shen Xinghui's face.

To prove that you like everything about him, you take the initiative to lift his chin.

Bending your head, you placed a kiss on his stubble, “I’m just happy. So happy.”

Shen Xinghui's pupils trembled, his eyes widened, and he opened his mouth for a long time without saying a word.

At this time in another room.

Qin Che was standing at the window of the open lift, looking at the distorted bus outside and the little monsters scattered all over the ground.

Two adjacent safe houses, with a total of six guardians, have been put into battle.

Your three baby sea crabs are powerful enough to crush those monsters, so Qin Che doesn't need to take any action.

His right eye suddenly lit up red.

Turning his head and closing his eyes, he saw your kiss from Mephistopheles’ perspective.

After a deep sigh, Qin Che opened his eyes again and smiled, "Little Lihua, are you ready to pay the price for crossing the line?"

Dome Garden.

At Qin Che's suggestion, in addition to fruits and snacks, Li Shen also brought up a bottle of Riesling sweet white wine.

Qi Yu drank cup after cup. Li Shen didn't stop him. He poured himself half a cup and drank it slowly.

After a long silence, Qi Yu, drunken, spoke, "Doctor Li."

Li Shen looked at him and said, "You can only choose one between drinking alone and acting crazy."

"How did you know I was going to get drunk?" Qi Yu laughed. "There are a lot of things I can't figure out. Can you figure it out?"

Li Shen saw that he couldn't stop her, so he could only remind her, "You can ask questions, but pay attention to the camera."

Qi Yu put down his wine glass with a smile, tilted his head 45 degrees, snapped his fingers towards the sky, and pinched out a pink-purple flame at his fingertips.

Make a heart shape with your thumb and index finger, pick up the flame, then point it towards the sky and blow out the fire in one breath.

Li Shen could understand that Qi Yu was finding joy in suffering.

He sighed, "If I show Jasmine a little magic trick like this, she'll like it."

"Okay, then I'll find an opportunity and show it to her." Qi Yu picked up the wine glass again and took a big sip. "But why do I have to keep looking for such opportunities?"

Li Shen was a little confused. "Your sudden sadness must have a source, a specific reason. If you don't tell me, I can't help you sort it out."

Qi Yucai refused to admit it and lay back in his chair, "I'm not sad at all. I'm fine."

There was another long silence.

Li Shen listened to the screams of the monsters below the fortress.

Suddenly, Qi Yu's almost inaudible voice was heard, "Who am I?"

"Don't underestimate yourself," Li Shen said seriously. "Being sentimental isn't a flaw; it makes you more colorful. To Jasmine, you're the most romantic and lovely person. She wouldn't be happy to see you fall into a depressed mood."

Qi Yu shook his head, "You don't understand, I'm not talking about Miss Bodyguard."

Li Shen had no choice but to change his thinking and pondered silently for a moment.

He moved the cup closer, "Maybe, I understand."

Qi Yu laughed and clinked glasses with Li Shen, "I'll pretend to believe it, okay?"

Li Shen smiled faintly and did not directly argue about whether he understood the question or not.

After Qi Yu finished his glass, he poured another one, then looked up at the dark sky above the scorched earth with sadness.

Li Shencai slowly spoke, "The beginning of every life story is actually the same point as the moment when life and consciousness are formed."

Qi Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You are a doctor, not a philosopher."

"How would you know? We are the ones who are trapped, waiting for Jasmine to activate us."

"Hmm?" Qi Yu was a little interested. "Go on."

Li Shen pointed at Qi Yu's slippered feet and said, "Do you feel the wind blowing? It's a bit cold?"

"Of course, don't you feel anything?" Qi Yu was puzzled.

“It means we all have a living life.”

Li took a deep breath.

Then spit it out slowly.

He continued.

"Perhaps Jasmine is the one who is trapped, and we have to activate her ourselves. Coincidentally, the four of us have the same preference and chose the same girl."

Qi Yu put down his glass in shock, sat up and turned to Li Shen, "Wow, Doctor Li, your idea is so outrageous! How terrifying!"

Li Shen looked directly at Qi Yu, not giving him a chance to escape. "If you could choose, what would you choose?"

Qi Yu got goosebumps all over his body when he was stared at by Li Shen's cold eyes. "No, don't let it be Miss Bodyguard, please don't let it be! If it's her, I would rather it be me!"

Li Shen nodded and smiled again.

This time his smile was more obvious and relaxed. "The conclusion has been reached."

Qi Yu was stunned again.

After a long while, his eyes finally lit up with joy. "Yes, I'm the one who's been activated. I should be happy! This way, all her fears, anxieties about gain and loss, self-deprecation, and restlessness will be borne by me. She won't have to suffer that kind of torture!"

Li Shen nodded again, "Will you still be troubled by the question of where you came from and where you are going?"

"No, no." Qi Yu had already come to terms with it. "As long as Miss Bodyguard is worry-free, I don't have any reason to go anywhere."

"Our lives are given by her, and our stories begin because of her." Li Shen raised his glass again. "The forbidden area is a brand new beginning. Here, we regard her as a belief, which is enough to solve more than 95% of our troubles."
