"Pei Ye." The woman's warm breath lingered at his neck.
"...Hmm."
"I found the door to the Luoshen Palace." Li Xizhou whispered, "Mother left it for me."
"Hmm... I told you long ago, she would definitely leave it for you."
"Hmm, you're the smartest."
Ordinarily, this would be the girl's smiling tease, but now she was buried in his neck, her voice muffled and light, genuinely sounding like heartfelt admiration. Pei Ye felt a tingle through his body, her soft hair next to his face, but he said nothing.
"Pei Ye." Li Xizhou whispered.
"Hmm."
"I'm willing to entrust myself to you countless times."
"..."
"Each time, I absolutely trust you." Li Xizhou gently tightened her arms around the boy's neck.
"...I, I sometimes make mistakes too... I often make mistakes, I'm not someone who can do everything... Like today, if something had gone wrong, you, you might have died."
