Genshin Impact: My confession was rejected, so I traveled to seven countries

Everyone continued on their way.

“I’m so tired, I want to take a break, ahhhhhhh!!!”

Everyone looked at Wendy in silence, as they were no longer surprised by this. This was because this guy had complained about this at least a hundred times since this morning.

Just when everyone was speechless, a cry of pain was heard.

"oops!"

Everyone turned around and saw that it was Walnut.

"walnut!?"

"what happened?"

"Master, what's wrong?" Zhongli stopped the car hurriedly and asked worriedly.

Seeing everyone looking at her, Hu Tao waved her hands hurriedly.

"No, it's okay. I just feel my legs are a little sore... like a cramp..."

Yun Jin hurried to Hu Tao's side, helped her steady the bicycle, and helped her get off.

"Are you okay..." Yun Jin asked with concern.

Walnut forced a smile. "It's okay, it's okay. It's probably the aftereffects of long-term cycling. It will be fine after a while."

"How about taking a break?" Su Mo suggested.

Walnut quickly denied, "No, no, I can't let everyone delay the progress because of me."

"Yes, yes, let's take a rest, I'm really tired," Wendy complained.

Hearing this, everyone glared at Wendy.

Wendy shuddered for a moment and kept silent.

"Hu Tao, if you feel tired, don't force yourself. We are here to have fun, there is no need to do anything special. Compared to this, your health is the most important thing." Su Mo persuaded.

"Yeah, Hu Tao, there's no need to be so anxious. We're all out here to play together, so there's no need to force it." Yun Jin persuaded.

"Yes, the most important thing about health is..."

Walnut was a little unhappy with everyone's persuasion. "I know what you said. True courage lies in protecting yourself rather than facing danger. But I don't want to give up just like that!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone showed a look of surprise, and then looked at each other, seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

"Hmm? Little Walnut, what did you say just now? Say it again?" Su Mo asked with a smile.

"I don't want to give up!" Hu Tao said firmly, looking at Su Mo with stubborn eyes.

Su Mo smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I know, but it's the sentence before this one, the real courage..." Before Su Mo finished speaking, Hu Tao continued frankly.

“True courage lies in protecting yourself, not in challenging danger.”

Walnut said something shocking again, and everyone was surprised.

"Oh my God! Where did you learn this, Hu Tao? So amazing!" Paimon exclaimed.

"Yes! Hu Tao, how come you are so awesome!" Ying said excitedly.

"Huh? Is this amazing? Why are you all so surprised?" Walnut was a little confused and puzzled by everyone's reactions.

It's just a sentence, why exaggerate so much?

"From a general theoretical perspective, what you said is indeed very good. Although it is very common, it is really not something that ordinary people can understand." Zhongli explained.

After hearing Zhongli's words, Hu Tao became even more confused.

"But, isn't this what you taught me, Zhongli?" Hu Tao looked at Zhongli with some confusion.

Zhongli was a little confused when he heard this.

Really? Did he teach you that?

But when did he say that? Why didn't he remember? Did he forget?

Seeing Zhongli's puzzled expression, Hu Tao then looked at Su Mo.

"And you, Su Mo, didn't you also tell me this before?"

"Ah? Me? Did I say that? I don't quite remember." Su Mo was also a little confused.

Seeing this, Hu Tao chuckled, "Actually, I can't say you said it. I can only say that this hall master is gifted and has extracted the best parts from your words. But I think this sentence makes a lot of sense."

Everyone suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's it, then Walnut, you are really amazing."

"Well, it's really great to take the essence, discard the dross, and refine it into your own thing, Hall Master!" Zhongli praised sincerely.

"Yeah, although it is said that brave people enjoy the world first, it is more commendable to protect yourself than to joke with your life and body." Yun Jin agreed.

"Oh my god, I have to say, Walnut, you are really awesome. This sentence is really like an epiphany. It seems easy to understand, but sometimes you may not be able to think of it." Paimon said.

"Yeah, I think it's pretty awesome too, hehe." Hu Tao became proud and open-minded. The original pain disappeared, and was replaced by a sense of pride.

"Yeah, that's really good. But, since you know that, why do you still insist on it?" Su Mo asked.

Hearing this, Walnut's face lit up. "Because I don't want to fall behind you, nor do I want to spoil your fun. I want to challenge myself. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Protecting yourself is important, but sometimes there's something more important than that, and that's your expectations! I want to respond to you!"

"But is there a possibility that we don't actually need your response..."

Before Su Mo could finish, Hu Tao interrupted him.

"I know what you want to say. Although you will give in to me and take care of me, you also can't look down on me and treat me like a child! I also want to live for myself, work hard for my youth, and leave no regrets! Even if you think it's unimportant, I will care very much! Please respect my thoughts!"

Hu Tao's words were firm and confident. Everyone looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh at his youthful yet confident demeanor of a little adult.

Zhongli, in particular, couldn't help but feel a little relieved. Looking at the seemingly weak figure, the smile on his face became more amiable.

Su Mo was also somewhat relieved. "Okay, but if you can't hold on any longer, you must speak up. Don't force yourself to respond. Responding to other people's expectations is a very worthwhile thing, but you must also protect yourself. Don't feel embarrassed if you speak up. We won't laugh at you, because..."

"You are already good enough!"

Walnut agreed cheerfully, "Okay, but don't fall before me."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Everyone laughed for a moment.

At this moment, an inopportune and weak voice came.

"Well, that... Ouch... Can you guys stop giving me chicken soup? I'm almost dying of exhaustion. I really can't take it anymore!!!"
