For an instant.

An unexpected and extreme chill filled the room, as if the cold aura of the Netherworld had suddenly descended.

A bone-chilling cold front swept in like a surging tide, sending shivers down one's spine.

Why does it suddenly feel so cold?

Chu Siqi murmured to herself, and couldn't help but snuggle even closer into Shen Shuchou's warm embrace.

Shen Shuchou's pupils dilated, and a deep shock appeared in his eyes.

He swallowed hard, and without hesitation, Shen Shuchou released the shackles of his cultivation, instantly suppressing the two divine senses on the little fox.

Although he was not as strong as Hu Baibai and Jiang Qianqiu, they were only wisps of divine consciousness at the moment, so Shen Shuchou could still suppress them to some extent.

A storm was brewing in the little fox's mind.

"How dare she?"

"I'm going to kill her. How dare she touch the master!"

"Kill her, and I will tear her to pieces."

Jiang Qianqiu's voice was manic and filled with murderous intent.

Even the fox spirit Bai Bai, who initially found Chu Siqi interesting, exuded a terrifying demonic aura.

If Shen Shuchou hadn't intervened in time to temporarily suppress their consciousness, Chu Siqi would probably have been torn to shreds by now.

"We're not a good match, and I don't like you."

Shen Shuchou gently declined.

Upon hearing this, he could clearly feel Chu Siqi's body tremble slightly in his arms.

"Shen, you big idiot, do you know that night you were like a ray of light in the sky, piercing through the darkness and rescuing me from that place? From that moment on, the radiance you scattered was deeply planted in my heart until it sprouted and grew strong."

"I'm not as cold as I seem on the surface. I'm actually quite simple, and my emotions are very straightforward every day. I don't have any particular pursuits. But your appearance seems to be telling me that I should have a pursuit now. I just want to have you."

Chu Siqi hugged Shen Shuchou tightly, pressed her head against his warm chest, listened quietly to his heartbeat, and expressed her deep affection in her words.

A young girl's heart, stirred by spring, is like a newly blossoming flower bud, swaying gently in the breeze, shyly awaiting its full bloom.

Shen Shuchou glanced down at Chu Siqi, his eyes filled with complex emotions that were hard to describe.

At this moment, Shen Shuchou realized that he had underestimated his influence in Chu Siqi's heart, and he had also underestimated Chu Siqi's persistence.

From the very beginning, Shen Shuchou knew that he could not have much entanglement with Chu Siqi.

The deeper the entanglement, the greater the danger to her.

Although I said many unpleasant things, they all disappeared without a trace.

Or perhaps Shen Shuchou only thought Chu Siqi's interest was temporary, and that it would be forgotten once the initial enthusiasm cooled down.

But now it seems that Shen Shuchou's idea was wrong, and Chu Siqi is still unaware that she has already stepped into a dark abyss.

But it wasn't too late; this time, he really wanted to dissuade Chu Siqi from having any ideas.

Shen Shuchou gently pushed Chu Siqi's hand away, held her trembling shoulders, and said earnestly, "Chu Siqi, I really don't like you. We are not on the same path and will never be together in this lifetime. I only saved you that night because we were classmates."

Chu Siqi's beautiful eyes instantly reddened, with glistening tears glistening in them.

Chu Siqi pursed her lips and said, "Perhaps that night was just something you did casually, but for me it was like giving me a second life."

"I don't know what I would have become if you weren't there that day. Even if my body were still alive the next day, I think my heart would have died."

"You gave me a second chance at life, you big idiot Shen. I really like you. Touch my heart, and your heart won't lie."

Chu Siqi grabbed Shen Shuchou's hand and wanted to press it against her heart to prove that her rapidly beating heart was not just talk.

But the next second, she was ruthlessly pushed to the ground by Shen Shuchou. Chu Siqi felt a sharp pain in her heart when she saw the deep disgust in Shen Shuchou's eyes.

"Chu Siqi, you're really annoying. Do you know that what I hate most is a self-righteous little girl like you?"

"What makes you think that the person you like will unconditionally like you back? Your approach is incredibly naive, foolish, and ridiculous."

Shen Shuchou looked down at him, his eyes filled with undisguised disgust.

"No...that's not how it is..."

Chu Siqi's face was instantly blurred with tears as she murmured something.

Those two short sentences were like a thousand sharp blades, instantly piercing through her fragile heart.

It hurts, it really hurts. I've never felt this way before.

"Don't talk to me again, or I'll kill you. You've seen what I'm capable of. If I want to kill you, there's no one in this world who can protect you."

Shen Shuchou's voice was as cold as the desolate polar night.

After saying that, he didn't look at Chu Siqi again, but pushed open the door and left.

"Waaaaah... I'm not that kind of person..."

"Siqi isn't childish... Waaaaah..."

Chu Siqi seemed to have all her strength drained away, collapsing to the ground and sobbing loudly.

She wasn't as naive and ridiculous as Shen Shuchou described; she was simply pursuing what she loved.

From the moment she decided to fight for it, Chu Siqi was prepared to be rejected. Perhaps after being rejected many times, Chu Siqi would not keep pestering Shen Shuchou.

But this was only the beginning, and it was the first time Chu Siqi had seriously expressed her feelings for him.

But she never expected that Shen Shuchou would refuse so ruthlessly and coldly. His disgusted gaze cut her heart like a knife.

There's nothing wrong with liking someone, nothing wrong with pursuing someone you like, and Shen Shuchou isn't wrong either. The only mistake she made was that she shouldn't have had any contact with him in the first place.

At this moment, Chu Siqi seemed to have died on that night when she first fell in love.

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Siqi gradually calmed down, and her once bright eyes became dull and lifeless.

Endless tears soaked the carpet beneath her, and her breathing became so weak that she seemed to be suffocating.

Bang!

Just then, the door was violently kicked open from the outside, and a figure rushed in anxiously—it was Chu Tianxiong.

"Siqi, are you alright? Where's that kid? Where did he go?"

Chu Tianxiong helped Chu Siqi up with eyes full of heartache.

He received a call from his nanny while he was in a meeting at the company, saying that Chu Siqi had locked herself in her room and was crying.

At this moment, Chu Siqi was like a flower about to wither, seemingly able to be blown away by a mere gust of wind.

Chu Tianxiong's anger surged like a volcanic eruption.

He hadn't been this angry in a long time. He cherished his precious daughter, treating her like a precious gem, but now she had been hurt like this by a mere brat.

"Leave this to your father, my precious daughter. I'm going to make that brat pay a heavy price."

Chu Tianxiong's eyes were gloomy.

He no longer cared whether the other party truly reached the Golden Core Realm, and even if they did, Chu Tianxiong didn't want to befriend them anymore.

Chu Tianxiong is determined to make his daughter pay the price for her treatment; it is a father's responsibility.

"No, don't touch him."

Chu Siqi stopped him with a look of horror in her eyes.

Seeing this, Chu Tianxiong became even angrier and said, "That kid treated you like that, and you still protect him."

Chu Siqi gripped Chu Tianxiong's arm with both hands, tears streaming down her face, and said, "Siqi doesn't like him anymore, Dad, don't touch him. Siqi will never like him again from now on."

Chu Siqi's pitiful and delicate appearance sent a shiver down Chu Tianxiong's spine.

"Dad can promise you won't touch him, but you have to promise Dad you'll never have any contact with him again."

Chu Tianxiong paused for a moment before speaking.

Chu Siqi's eyes dimmed, and she said weakly, "Siqi promises you, I will never have any contact with him again."

Only after ensuring that Chu Siqi would not have any contact with Shen Shuchou did Chu Tianxiong manage to suppress his anger.

Finally, Chu Siqi, exhausted, removed everything related to Shen Shuchou.

Even the doll with his name on it was personally set on fire by Chu Siqi.

The burning reflection appeared in Chu Siqi's eyes. At this moment, what was burning was not just a doll, but also the feelings in Chu Siqi's heart, which were gradually buried in the flames.

She kept watching until the fire went out.

At this moment, Chu Siqi's love for Shen Shuchou turned to ashes in the burning flames.

Similarly, the light that remained in Chu Siqi's heart also disappeared with the extinguishing of the flames.
