Bai Lei stares at me for a few quiet moments before saying "I could care less who dies but if you really can't ignore this, you have to tell me everything and no going off on your own from now on." I give him a large smile and quickly say "Deal"ย
He sighs and says "Before you try running off and saving the whole world, you need to work on getting stronger." I scratch my nose and nod my head in agreement. Bai Lei walks me over to the bed and pushes me down.ย
He keeps his hands on my shoulders as he says "Cultivate. Stop getting distracted." I nod my head and pull my legs up. He places a soft kiss on my forehead before quickly walking to the door. I close my eyes and clear my head.

Bai Lei looks back to Nova on the bed before closing the door. He really couldn't care less if the whole damn world went up in flames but he knows she cares. More than she should... Therefore, now he does. Whether he likes it or not.
