Quick transmigration, she doesn't love anyone!

One second they're haggling and too excited to sleep, the next they're sound asleep.

She's the only one who's heartless.

Wen Shitang's eyes darkened.

The room fell silent for a moment.

He let himself gaze at her unrestrainedly, meticulously describing her appearance.

My memories from the past are gradually becoming blurry.

In my youth, I fought alone to survive and rise to that position, losing all the trustworthy people around me one by one.

He was not even twenty years old when he brought her back.

From then on, he was no longer alone at home.

When did things start to change? In his eyes, she was no longer just a troublesome, ill-mannered brat.

Wen Shitang was very clear about what was wrong with him these past few days.

Everything went awry the moment he gave in to her misbehavior for the first time, yet he continued to deceive himself, thinking that nothing had changed.

I struggled with it, resisted it, and tried my best to get things back on track.

But a sinister voice gradually crept into his head, telling him that there was nothing wrong with it, and that no one in the world would ever treat Zhou Xiaxia better than him.

Whether it's Gu Xiyan or anyone else outside, they might all have ulterior motives towards her, but he alone doesn't.

He simply wanted her to be safe, happy, joyful, and carefree.

So if she has to be with someone in the end, why can't it be him?

At least if it were him, she would never suffer any emotional harm.

Why not?

When this question first popped into his head, Wen Shitang felt like he wasn't even human.

As for now, looking at Zhou Xiaxia sleeping soundly without any awareness, and thinking about his own thoughts, he still felt like he wasn't human.

"You're not like him..."

Zhou Xiaxia frowned and mumbled something in her sleep, pulling Wen Shitang back to reality.

Seeing her like this, I wondered what she was dreaming about again. I sighed, reached out and covered her with the blanket she had kicked off, and turned off the light.

It was a strange yet peaceful feeling, without any resistance or opposition, but rather an indescribable sense of security.

With another person beside him, Wen Shitang thought tonight would be another sleepless night, but he was surprised to find himself so relaxed that he fell asleep without realizing it.

In the middle of the night, Zhou Xiaxia woke up groggily.

Wen Shitang is a light sleeper; he woke up as soon as she moved. He turned on the light and looked at her, who was sitting up but couldn't even open her eyes.

Zhou Xiaxia struggled to open her eyes.

"Why are you here?"

…Wen Shitang remained silent.

Zhou Xiaxia wasn't bothered by it. The man was right in front of her, so she grabbed him, bit him, and then lay down in a comfortable position and fell into a deep sleep.

She's carefree and not very clear-headed, but she still remembers that she was going to get up at night to bite him.

Wen Shitang's Adam's apple bobbed, and he reached out to turn off the light.

After a long while, she carefully grasped the hand that had been thrown at her face and gently bit it.

From that moment on, he knew he was finished.

In the darkness, Yao Xiaoxiao looked at the rapidly increasing "heartbreak value" on her wrist and smiled slightly.

Gu Xiyan knew from her location tracking over the past few days that she had been painting every day and had even refused his invitations, spending all her time with Wei Xun. Feeling uneasy, he still took the time to go and check on her.

As he wished, she was painting Wei Xun at the time.

I don't know what kind of emotional drama people imagined, but they contributed a lot of heartbreak.

Although Wen Shitang is different from him, belonging to the type who is self-confused and internally destructive, she also contributes a lot to the emotional torment.

According to the plot, she should be relentlessly pursuing Wen Shitang, and Gu Xiyan should be unable to accept it and start to deal with Wen Shitang.

It's pretty much the same now. He's afraid she'll fall for Wei Xun, so he's still planning to make a move against Wen Shitang.

After all, in Gu Xiyan's opinion, Zhou Xiaxia would accept whoever Wen Shitang liked. Her feelings were too uncertain. Even without Wei Xun, there might be Zhou Xun or Li Xun. It seemed that getting rid of Wen Shitang, her backer, was the only way to solve the problem once and for all.

That's the only good thing about the world of novels: all these clear-headed people in high positions will revolve around her, the female protagonist.

So, dear Wei Xun, shouldn't we invite him to participate in this as well...?

……

The resort was chosen by Zhou Xiaxia, but actually, it wasn't really that; Xiaoyu and her family had been there before.

Zhou Xiaxia was envious. Xiaoyu had once invited her and Gu Xiyan to play, but she refused. She still wanted to be with Wen Shitang.

She started having a blast as soon as she checked in.

They kept running in and out.

Wen Shitang was helpless, as he was being dragged here and there.

Swimming and playing ball—young people really have plenty of energy and don't seem to mind getting tired.

Finally, looking at the person sleeping by the hot spring, it seems they were quite tired.

Wen Shitang carried the person back to the room, where they finally had some peace and quiet. He sat by the window and looked outside.

This resort is one of his own properties, and he didn't clear the area because he was worried that Zhou Xiaxia wouldn't have a good time.

Occasionally, there are small groups of people, relaxed and at ease.

He had never lived such a life for more than a few days, nor did he feel any longing or attachment to it. Supporting the Wen family and being busy were more attractive and challenging for him.

But at this moment, in the same room, Zhou Xiaxia was sleeping peacefully, while he sat quietly by the window flipping through a book, occasionally gazing into the distance, which didn't seem too bad.

Zhou Xiaxia slept until dinner time. After eating, she told Wen Shitang to go to bed soon after, because her plan for tomorrow morning was to watch the sunrise, and she had to set off to climb the mountain before dawn.

After hesitating for a moment, I thought, "What if I don't wake up?"

She was afraid of missing out, and the weather wasn't very good for the next few days.

Wen Shitang thought for a moment, "If I'm really sleepy, then I won't go?"

She glared at him angrily.

"You can sleep here! Make sure to wake me up when it's time!"

So, quite reluctantly, they were once again sharing a room.

"Xiaxia, do you know what kind of people live together?"

Zhou Xiaxia was sleepy and drowsy, and didn't want to listen to what he was saying, so she mumbled an "oh" incoherently.

Then I ignored him and fell into a deep sleep.

Wen Shitang seemed to have figured something out, his gaze becoming intense.

She doesn't care about these things, so this is his selfishness, and it's his fault.

The promise he was finally able to convince himself to make was that once she truly found someone she liked, he would choose to let go and return to their former position.

After hesitating for a moment, he pulled the person close and closed his eyes.

It was as if Zhou Xiaxia had a timer in her mind; she woke up again in the middle of the night and bit Wen Shitang.

For the first time, without any psychological burden, Wen Shitang felt a slight pain on his neck, and his eyes darkened.

Seeing the dazed person, he took the initiative to kiss them, but pulled away immediately. This was his response, compromise, and concession.

Unfortunately, Zhou Xiaxia was completely unaware of this.

But even if he were awake, it would only be a display of affection for the blind.

Wen Shitang knew very well that at least for this moment, he was content.

He gently embraced the person beside him, rested his chin on her head, and chuckled softly, his chest trembling.

When I woke up again, it was still early, but it was getting late if I wanted to see the sunrise.

Wen Shitang was reluctant to wake Zhou Xiaxia, but he knew that if she couldn't get what she wanted, she would be upset and might cry and make a fuss the next day.

Seeing that the person was sleeping soundly, I got up and put a thick coat on her.
