"do not know."
Black Tower paused for two seconds, then laughed.
interesting.
"Alright... then I'll reluctantly teach you."
Jiang Jiu looked at her and blinked: "Hmm...you go ahead."
"Dating is simple," Heita said confidently. "It's just about telling you when I miss you, telling me when you miss me, being there when I look for you, and being there when you look for me."
She paused, then added.
"You are mine, and I am yours. That's all."
Jiang Jiu listened and slowly typed a question mark.
"It's...that simple?"
“It’s that simple,” Black Tower said matter-of-factly. “I’ll handle the complexities; this is all you have left.”
She reached out and poked his face again.
"So you should have said to me just now, 'I miss you too.'"
Jiang Jiu thought for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Should I fill in the missing part?"
“Fill it in,” Black Tower nodded. “Now, let’s talk about it.”
Jiang Jiu looked at her, at the tiny doll sitting on his shoulder, staring at him with those purple eyes, waiting for him to say those four words.
He inexplicably felt a little nervous.
So why are you nervous?
"Ahem... Well, I miss you too."
The little black tower doll looked at him, a slight smile playing on its lips: "That's more like it."
Heita was very satisfied with Jiang Jiu's reaction. Just as she was about to urge him to come back, she heard him call her name again.
"Black Tower".
"Ok?"
"You just said that I would tell you when I miss you."
"Ah."
Jiang Jiu paused for a second, then said, "I was thinking about you just now."
Black Tower paused for a moment.
Then the tips of the little doll's ears turned a little red.
She turned her head away: "You have to come to me and tell me that yourself."
"Doesn't it count now?"
"No, come see me."
Come to me and tell me in person that you miss me.
Jiang Jiu blinked and said okay.
"Another good thing?" Black Tower said.
Jiang Jiu realized that Hei Ta was teasing him. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Well... my girlfriend, wait for me a moment, I'll be right there, okay?"
Just as the little black tower doll was about to say something, it realized that its view was being blocked by a hand.
"you do......"
"Turn back, Black Tower."
Chapter 197 There's no reason she couldn't do it.
Black Tower paused for a moment, then turned to look behind him.
Jiang Jiu leaned against the door, the power of fate beside him not completely gone. They met eyes for a moment, and then Jiang Jiu walked over.
"Black Tower, I missed you." He stopped in front of Black Tower. "And did you miss me?"
Black Tower raised an eyebrow: "Didn't I already say that?"
"I'm asking now."
Aren't you annoying?
"Don't find it annoying."
Black Tower found it even more interesting; the feeling of understanding everything at a glance was quite nice.
"Okay, I miss you, and then what?"
"And then... may I kiss you?"
Black Tower: "...?"
Seeing that Jiang Jiu was seriously asking for her opinion, she was momentarily at a loss for words.
"...There's no need to ask about that!"
"Does 'no need to ask' mean... we can go directly?"
Black Tower almost laughed out of exasperation at his serious expression.
"What do you say?"
Jiang Jiu smiled, then lowered his head and kissed her.
The Black Tower did not dodge.
She simply tilted her head slightly, his image reflected in her purple eyes, a triumphant smile playing on her lips.
The kiss didn't last long. After they parted, Jiang Jiu ruffled Hei Ta's hair before reluctantly trying to talk to Hei Ta about serious matters.
Hearing Jiang Jiu speak, Hei Ta teased, "It's so pitiful to be your girlfriend. Since we got together, we've barely seen each other more than a few times."
"Hmm... well, shall I keep you company first?"
“No need, let’s get down to business,” Hei Ta looked into Jiang Jiu’s eyes. “Tell me, when you were confronting Hua on the Immortal Ship, could you be sure that Lan wouldn’t attack you?”
"......perhaps?"
Black Tower knows.
"Gambling again? What if they die there?"
"Then..."
Jiang Jiu looked into the Black Tower's eyes, his words caught in his throat, and then he changed his words: "I won't die. It involves the Star God. The Star God of Preservation won't stand by and watch the Hunting Party attack me. The Amber King will take action."
"..." Black Tower was silent for two seconds before directly exposing his lie, "You're lying, you have no confidence at all."
"You don't know if Lan will attack you, or if Amber King will save you."
"So... even now, you still don't care about death?"
Jiang Jiu paused for two seconds, then smiled and said, "You're worried about me."
"...Don't change the subject."
Jiang Jiu coughed lightly: "So... after the Immortal Ship was liquidated, what did the company do?"
Heita was not pleased with Jiang Jiu's blatant attempt to change the subject, but by avoiding the topic, he had essentially given his answer.
He didn't care.
Black Tower wanted to find a way to change Jiang Jiu's mindset.
If you walk down the path of nothingness and don't even care about life, how can you guarantee your existence?
Or rather...
Instead of trying to change Jiang Jiu's mind, she should investigate whether she could make a profit from the path of nothingness...?
She recalled the images stored in the little black tower doll.
There seems to be a scene in the film where "she" was researching this kind of thing.
If we can get in touch with them...
Her gaze fell on the doll on Jiang Jiu's shoulder. It was something left behind by another "her". If "she" could do it... there was no reason why she couldn't.
"...Black Tower?"
Hei Ta crossed his arms: "They were discussing how to divide the spoils, but I didn't listen carefully. Later, it seemed they wanted to ask you about Fang Hu, but they couldn't reach you for a long time."
"Check the messages yourself, or connect to the coalition's communications now; they probably haven't finished yet."
"also."
Jiang Jiu casually turned on the communicator and connected to the communication channel.
As soon as the communication was turned on, a cacophony of sounds flooded my head.
"...Should we pursue Fang Hu or not? If not, what will happen to the assets of the Chiming Clan?"
"The company said that Fanghu voluntarily withdrew and is not considered a hostile force. The assets are temporarily frozen but will not be touched."
"And what about the distribution of the spoils? The company got 70%?"
"So what if it's 70%? The company contributed the most!"
"So many powerful figures... Have you no shame, company?! How can you take so much money?"
...It's so noisy.
Jiang Jiu listened to the jumbled communications and pressed his temples.
“Don’t worry about Fanghu.” He said, and the communication channel fell silent instantly. “Those who voluntarily withdrew, don’t pursue them, unfreeze their assets, and let them develop on their own.”
After thinking for a moment, he added another sentence.
"Forget it... let's send someone from the company to Fanghu to check it out. Although they are a powerful force there, I believe they won't refuse."
