"It's good for the body."
"Pfft." Xue Yang still couldn't help but laugh. "It feels like you have no desires or needs. What's the point of living like this?"
Qu Xiao, still with his eyes closed, said, "Who says I have no desires or needs? It has always been my pursuit to ensure Dongxiao is doing well and isn't bullied by any other nation."
Xue Yang said, "Haven't you already achieved that pursuit?"
Qu Xiao replied, "Achieved, perhaps, but it's not guaranteed to last forever. I still need to consider the future and ensure Dongxiao remains the same even after my death."
This was his lifelong dream.
And, if nothing went wrong, it would also be his last wish.
"Is Dongxiao all you think about? Haven't you ever thought about yourself?"
"How could I not? I'm living quite well."
"I like you."
"...I know." How many times had she confessed already? He had to know. But how did they get back on this topic again?
"When are we getting married?"
