Bengtie: My death fueled their madness.

"That's roughly the gist of it. You'd better keep this to yourself and just understand it. Don't worry about it too much." Black Tower turned off the screen.

Why?

"Neither of us has the right to make the final decision for Zhimu. Let the future be what it is."

"...Are we just going to stand by and watch Ruan Mei try every means to reconcile with Master?" Jing Liu frowned deeply.

"Who told you you just watched?"

Black Tower leaned back, arms crossed over his chest, and half of his white knee emerged from the water as he crossed his legs.

"Can't you see I'm making things difficult for Ruan Mei? You can make things difficult for her all you want, I definitely won't stop you, on the contrary, I'll support you."

"But if I do that... Master will be unhappy. Wasn't that exactly what you warned me about?"

"Let's change our perspective. Can we be compared to Ruan Mei? Don't we remember how many times her uterus has been burned?"

"..." Jingliu's eye twitched.

This woman... always speaks such powerful words with a serious and matter-of-fact expression.

However, despite the irritation, my train of thought did indeed shift after hearing those words.

The words may be crude, but the underlying meaning is clear; the Black Tower's statement does indeed have a significant implied message.

Master had said long ago that he would not deliberately avoid women with whom he had a past entanglement.

But the truth is that even though he remembers everything, he still avoids Ruan Mei, even though they reunited at the Black Tower space station.

The two are now in a state of disrepair, and the master is even unwilling to reveal to Ruan Mei that he has remembered her.

Seeing Jingliu's expression, Heita spoke at the opportune moment.

"Have you figured it out?"

"Well, I still have a question."

"explain."

"Has your master revealed to you his current views or attitude towards Ruan Mei?"

"It hasn't been explicitly stated, but it's not hard to guess."

Hei Ta considered herself the woman who understood Qi Zhimu best among them, and confidently stated:

"In his past life, Ruan Mei's last words to him were that they owed each other nothing, so he obeyed and gave up his attachment to Ruan Mei."

"Of course, he doesn't hate Ruan Mei, but it is precisely the lack of hatred that is most fatal. Whether it is love turning into hate or hate turning into love, their status is at least not that of strangers."

"While it's not accurate to say there's no love or hate, think about Zhi Mu's current experience, understanding, and mindset."

"A man surrounded by many outstanding women, who has never experienced sexual repression, and whose willpower is strong enough to be unshakable by external factors—"

"The question is: just how difficult is it for Ruan Mei to win over a man like this?"

"Another question: If I don't stand by and watch Ruan Mei try every means to win over Zhi Mu, how many obstacles will she face?"

"As for you, to be honest, you wouldn't be able to do anything to her under normal circumstances, but Zhi Mu has reconciled with you, which is your biggest advantage."

Imagine this scenario: A group of people are heading to the beach to sunbathe. You and Ruanmei both ask Zhimu to help apply sunscreen. Guess who he will refuse?

"..."

Jingliu remained silent, yet he had never felt so moved by the words uttered by Heita.

really--

Her master holds a special place in Jingliu's heart.

Ruan Mei originally possessed an unshakeable position, yet with a simple sentence, she relegated her inviolable status to the roadside bushes.

Finally, I too became a roadside figure.

Don't you realize what kind of person your master is: someone who repays a drop of kindness with a spring of gratitude, and who forgave a minor transgression with profound kindness?

If he hadn't said those words that signified that they were now even, the domineering yet nonchalant Black Tower would probably be in the same position as I am now.

He couldn't beat Ruan Mei in a fight, nor could he out-argue her.

Even if he could beat her and scold her, he couldn't get past his master's hurdle, so in the end he could only silently endure the unpleasantness caused by Ruan Mei.

Now I finally understand why Black Tower likes to gloat.

This cannot be described as excusable. It must be said that anyone who can resist gloating would probably not complain about pushing the buttocks of the woman riding on their master.

He brought this on himself.

In today's popular internet slang, it can be summed up in one word:

Should!

only……

Thinking of the future, Jingliu sighed softly.

Before long, she will have to embark on the path she has chosen.

She is not Black Tower, not Yu Qingtu, and not even Ruan Mei; she has no capital to be considered worthy of attention.

Heta is a domineering person, but it is undeniable that most of what he says makes sense.

Indeed, given her master's personality, even if she didn't do anything for him, just occasionally taking care of him in daily life, he wouldn't think she was useless.

I would never think she is inferior to Black Tower and the others, absolutely not!

But it was precisely because of this kind of master that she couldn't enjoy herself with a clear conscience.

Those who are unable to give to others and only passively profit will ultimately gain nothing and lose everything.

There are some things you can choose not to do, but when you do choose to do them, you must have the ability to complete them.

Humans cannot predict the future. Perhaps one day, it is precisely because of the ability to do something that we can rewrite the ending we do not want to see.

That sudden battle is a vivid example.

If she had been strong enough back then, strong enough to easily kill Shuhu, why would her master have embraced Fengrao and stepped into purgatory?

Therefore, there are some things that must be done, but before that, there is still some time to spend with Master.

Putting aside his many thoughts, Jingliu's gaze fell on the Black Tower.

"It's okay to stare at me, that's normal. After all, everyone knows how beautiful I am. But don't try to turn me gay, I can't handle that."

Black Tower said casually.

Hmm…familiar tone, familiar narcissism…

Jingliu didn't take it seriously and suddenly said something that surprised Black Tower.

"...When you were intimate with your master, did you take any precautions?"

"What, are you afraid that Zhimu's first child will be mine?"

"No, my master and I never used protection, and I was willing to have his child, but..."

Jingliu hesitated for a moment, then chose to tell the truth.

"But I still feel that I am not up to the role of a mother. There are things I want to do but haven't been able to do."

"If I were to become pregnant with Master's child, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to focus on anything else, but I don't know how to properly tell Master..."

After all… Master has always been… inside…

Black Tower's eyes showed even greater surprise. After confirming that Jing Liu's words came from the heart, he couldn't help but smile.

"Jimu and I didn't take any conventional precautions, and we didn't even mention it to him. But like you, I don't think I'm ready to be a mother right now."

"Well—" Jingliu hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Don't worry, how could Zhi Mu not have thought of what you and I could think of?"

Black Tower casually waved his hand.

"He has his ways. No matter how many times he does it in one night, it's impossible if he doesn't want to."
