As he fed the ducks, there was a small ball of flame in Gu Linxi's heart that she was unable to release. With the precondition of saving her life, coupled with the fact that the other party was just unwilling to send her away, Gu Linxi wasn't enough to make her angry with Li TienNiu. She could only look at the duck with a depressed expression.

Far away, Li TienNiu stood there, looking at Gu Linxi. He could tell that these past few days had not been a happy one for Gu Linxi. He had forcefully forced Gu Linxi to stay here. His original intention had been for Gu Linxi to be able to live a carefree life. This place was just like a paradise; Gu Linxi didn't need to be tainted with those troublesome matters.

Perhaps the time he had spent here was too short, and he didn't have a sense of belonging. He wasn't sure if Li Tieniu's words were meant to console him or to deceive him. But in a way, consolation is sometimes deceit. However, considering the time, Jiang Jiayi had almost completely disappeared from this world. Just as he was thinking about this, Li TienNiu suddenly felt that that thing had been moved.

People who could touch this thing, and who had the ability to do so, Li Tieniu could tell by thinking about it that it was the real world's people. Since he dared to enter this virtual world, he should bear all the consequences, including death, but whenever he encountered any danger, those people would quickly rush over to save him.

In the end, their lives in the virtual world were worthless. A red light flashed in Li Tieniu's eyes. He similarly hated these people, hated them for using the virtual world as a place to vent their anger. To them, the people here were like ants. Even if they killed a nest, they would still feel at ease.

He took a deep look at Gu Lingxi. Li TienNiu had to rush over to deal with this matter. He wouldn't let those people save Jiang Jiayi. Jiang Jiayi had to die no matter what. From Gu Linxi's point of view, or perhaps from the bottom of his heart, Jiang Jiayi should not have continued to live.

The reason why he did not show himself earlier was because he did not want to expose himself in front of others. However, since those people had come looking for him, he must already know something. If he didn't leave now, he would truly be a turtle hiding its head.

"Brother Li, where are you going?" Gu Linxi suddenly caught a glimpse of Li TienNiu and asked as if she had sensed something in her heart.

Li TienNiu, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped in his tracks. He watched as Gu Linxi approached him.

"I need to go out for a few days." Li TienNiu didn't want to say anything more, and now that he was talking to Gu Linxi, he wouldn't understand either. Others might not know, but he knew very well. Gu Linxi sealed his memories away. Unless she met with the condition to unseal her memories, she would always be like this. This was equivalent to a type of self-hypnosis. Only when a critical point appeared would one be able to remove this state of self-hypnosis.

Gu Linxi stood in front of Li TienNiu. She also didn't know why she had stopped Li TienNiu. Was she asking if the other party would be able to bring him along? Apparently not. She had already asked this many times, but Li Tieniu had never let go. It was as if she really wanted to marry her. When she thought of this, Gu Linxi couldn't help but shiver. She didn't want to be Li TienNiu's wife at all.

"Then be careful." When she didn't know what to say, the only thing she could say was this. Gu Linxi looked at her toes, feeling a bit depressed.

This place was beautiful and suitable for old age. Li TienNiu surveyed his surroundings, his large palm stroking Gu Linxi's hair. He would be very at ease if Gu Linxi lived here. However, what Gu Linxi wanted to say shouldn't be to make him be more careful, right? She most likely still wanted him to bring her away from this place.

It was impossible for Li TienNiu to agree to this idea. Furthermore, since Gu Linxi hadn't said it out loud, he could just pretend that she didn't know.

Gu Lingxi somewhat resisted Li TienNiu's posture. If Xie Si had been asked to do this action of stroking his hair, he would have felt that it was acceptable. Just thinking that this person was the unknown Li Tieniu, Gu Linxi didn't feel very happy.

"Stay here obediently. You will eventually fall in love with this place." The small countryside that was at peace with the world, the simple villagers, as well as this beautiful scenery, would always make Gu Linxi slowly fall in love with it.

Li TienNiu wasn't as free as Xie Siqian, who was causing trouble with Gu Lingxi. Li TienNiu believed that Xie Siqiang's actions were just to appease Gu Jingxi's willfulness. Gu Linxi was a very headstrong person. Li TienNiu understood this long ago, just like how he had first met her. This kind of willfulness would cause problems sooner or later. He didn't wish for Gu Linxi to disappear, so he couldn't tolerate Gu Linxi's willfulness.

In this aspect, Li TienNiu was more like Gu Lingxi's old father. He wouldn't indulge everything she did just because of her father's preferences. Of course, Li TienNiu wasn't Gu Linxi's old father. His true relationship with Gu Linxi should be … Friend? Thinking about the definition of 'friend', Li TienNiu felt that the relationship between him and Gu Linxi should belong to the category of 'friend'.

"Hey, Second Fool, when will you and your wife get married?" From far away, there was a figure shouting loudly, waving at them to signal their existence.

The resounding voice echoed in the mountains and fields, as if several people were asking the same question at the same time. Gu Linxi heard every word clearly.

Li TienNiu, the Li Family's Second Fool, gave a simple and honest smile before looking back at that person and waving his hand.

"Soon."

Li TienNiu's mood could not help but brighten up a lot. He thought about how he could take advantage of the opportunity to leave this place and prepare for his marriage with Gu Lingxi.

"Don't forget to inform everyone that we're having a good time." The man came out of the field, barefoot and in shorts, his legs covered in mud, a cow in his hand.

Gu Linxi only felt her face burning. She didn't know if it was because of embarrassment or anger, but it should be because of the latter. She had a strong sense of rejection whenever she thought of marrying Li TienNiu. She didn't mind interacting with Li Tieniu like this, but she would never marry him.

"The head of the village hasn't had a happy occasion for a long time, it just so happens that he can have a good time." The man who was leading Gu Niu finally arrived in front of Gu Linxi and Li TienNiu, then stopped.

His skin color was very dark just like Li Tieniu's. It seemed that everyone here had the same skin color. Gu Linxi couldn't help but shiver when she thought about how she'd also turn into this sort of dark and swarthy appearance in the future. She didn't want to turn herself into a black beauty. Of course, if she lived here for a long time, she wouldn't be able to become a black beauty by then. Looking at the surrounding women, Gu Linxi felt a sense of dread in her heart the moment she entered them.
