“He has a different soul,” Yu Nu sighed softly.
“It seems you’re not completely clueless.” Upon hearing Yu Nu’s words, Xie Yuhua didn’t think Yu Nu would immediately come up with the correct answer, since Yu Nu didn’t know about the scenes they had witnessed.
Without knowing the truth, a normal person might react by thinking: Did he make a trade? Did he exchange his lifespan? But it's unlikely that they would so directly and definitively say that he exchanged his soul.
Does this mean that Yu Nu was actually involved in the situation?
What if Qing Ge was the only one who was deceived from beginning to end? What if Yu Nu was actually a member of a cult, and her goal was to take Qing Ge's life? Didn't the kid say that cults don't keep their promises? If they don't keep their promises, why would they let Yu Nu stay here for so long?
He admitted he had some conspiracy theories, but when it came to safety, he had to think that way.
"Do you love Qing-ge?" Ling Xiao suddenly asked this question.
"Yes, Qing-ge and I are mutually in love." This was Yu-nu's answer. She did not directly answer whether she loved him or not, but only said that Qing-ge and she were mutually in love.
Just like many times before, he would ask Jieyuhua this question, and the answer he always got was: There is no reason why I don't love you.
The only time Little Flower Brother said "I love you" completely, he even took a breath in the middle.
The reason he asked this question was because he didn't understand why Yu Nu didn't commit suicide after being taken by the old emperor. Didn't people in ancient times value chastity? She might have been afraid of death, but if she loved Qing Ge, why didn't she tell him what happened that night? She chose to be with the old emperor, so why didn't she tell Qing Ge about what happened that night?
Did she not believe that Qing-ge could take her away? Or did she not believe that Qing-ge would still stay with her despite his past grievances after knowing that she was with the old emperor?
Could this be love? Ling Xiao didn't know. Human love was far too complex; he could never truly understand it…
“In ancient times, marriages were arranged by parents and matchmakers. Yu Nu was only a teenager when she got married, which would be equivalent to elementary or middle school age today. She didn’t understand what love was at all. Perhaps by the time she understood, it was too late.” Jie Yu Hua explained to Ling Xiao after hearing his thoughts.
“No.” Ling Xiao shook his head. He didn’t believe this explanation. He preferred to believe that Yu Nu was selfish and only wanted to live from beginning to end.
He could understand this desire to live. Some people are like that; they don't care about anything as long as they're alive. He had seen many people like that. However, he was not satisfied with the answer given by Jieyuhua. He made his own judgment. He believed that Yu Nu did not love Qing Ge, and similarly, she did not love the old emperor.
Jieyuhua was waiting for him to continue, but the child said nothing. Jieyuhua wanted to hear what the child was thinking, but after a while, he realized that he couldn't even hear the child's thoughts anymore.
After several unsuccessful attempts, Xie Yuhua began to doubt whether the function was actually effective or if it was triggered by some mechanism that controlled the on/off switch.
Actually, Ling Xiao wasn't thinking about anything. He didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. He felt he wouldn't get any results, so he deliberately cleared his mind. When he cleared his mind, it was like taking a shower and then the water and electricity were cut off. Suddenly, it was cut off without warning, leaving Jieyuhua to guess wildly on her own.
