Suddenly, Chiba Sakurako felt a bit downcast.
In her ears, a classic lyric seemed to echo: Tears fall down as I finally learn the truth!
It turns out, Ye Xuan's decisive action to save her wasn't the selfless rescue she thought it was, but rather because he possessed a body immune to all poisons, making the terrifying venom of the snake no threat to him!
In this light, it can only be said that Ye Xuan saved her out of kindness, rather than because she held any particular importance to him.
It was all her imagination, after all!
"I was overthinking it."
Chiba Sakurako chuckled bitterly to herself, realizing how much she missed her father to have conjured such an absurd fantasy.
Her father was gone, and in this world, no man would ever be like her father, willing to give up everything for her and make her feel safe and secure.
Moreover, to Ye Xuan, she was just a stranger he had recently met...
"What's wrong?" Ye Xuan's concerned voice rang out.
