Chapter 95 - Maybe
"I'm full. I'm going back to my room to sleep." After eating a few mouthfuls, I placed the tableware on the table and stood up. After greeting everyone present, I turned around and left.
"Do you want a little more? Weren't you before … " After seeing that I had actually left, Chen Ye called out to me from behind, and puzzledly asked.
Chen Ye said half of his sentence and he did not finish his sentence. I can completely understand the meaning behind Chen Ye's words.
Chen Ye just wanted to ask me, if my appetite was this small before, why didn't I eat it now?
When I turned around, I coincidentally saw the look in Chu Yu's eyes as he looked at me. I also saw that look in Chu Yu's eyes, as he did not believe that I had eaten my fill.
"I'm really full. I'm very tired now, so I'm going back to take a nap." Looking at the expressions in Chen Ye's and Chu Yu's eyes, I explained one sentence. After I finished speaking, I didn't even look at the two of them and directly left.
Eating?
What the hell.
A table full of people stared at me as if I were an ornament.
Especially Ling, who ate the rice in the bowl and looked at me. Did she treat me like a dish for wine?
That gaze made me have an illusion. If it wasn't for the fact that he and Chu Yu had not decided on a victor, the one in his bowl would probably be me instead of the rice.
Thinking this, my whole body shivered.
Eating is not as important as your life, not to mention — in this case, I can't eat.
Thus, he might as well head back to rest. No matter what, he can still store up his strength.
"Why did the two of you come as well?" After returning to the room, I turned around with the intention to close the door, but saw that Chu Yu and Chen Ye had also followed along.
Could it be … Did the two of them come to tell me what to do?
"Do you think I can stay there and watch the so-called spirit eat?" After hearing my question, Chen Ye looked straight at me. With one hand against the doorframe, he smiled at me and asked a question in reply.
After I listened to Chen Ye's words, I became silent.
Although I haven't interacted with Chen Ye for a long time, I understand his personality pretty well. I can't stay any longer, so Chen Ye definitely can't stay either.
To be able to make Chen Ye endure for such a long time, it was already not an easy feat.
"But--I don't think you two called me here to talk so much nonsense." Looking at Chen Ye, I rolled my eyes.
The two of them obviously knew what was going on on on my side, so they couldn't come find me for no reason. They must have something to tell me.
However, since the other party is already here, why do I have to hide? Wouldn't it be better to just tell me?
"Let's talk inside." After hearing what I said, Chen Ye looked at me with a serious expression, and immediately pulled me into the room.
Looking at Chen Ye's actions, I knew that what they had said to me must be very serious, so I followed them inside.
After Chu Yu entered, he closed the door and casually set up a barrier around me.
"What's going on? You even want to set up a Spirit Formation? " Looking at Chu Yu's actions, I asked puzzledly.
Wasn't it just a spirit that came to live here? Was there really a need for the two of them to be so nervous?
However — I am truly grateful to them both from the bottom of my heart, because I also know that they are so nervous because they care about me.
"In order to protect your safety, I will place a barrier around this room of yours, all the way until … This matter is over. " Looking at my doubtful expression, Chu Yu explained to me slowly, word for word.
After hearing Chu Yu's explanation, I did not object.
After all … With multiple enchantments, I can at least have an extra layer of safety.
"Haven't the two of you figured out how to deal with him?" I couldn't hold it in any longer, so I asked.
They always said that the three smelly smiths could defeat Zhuge Liang. Chen Ye and Chu Yu were both smart people, but did they really not have any ways to deal with spirit?
"To be honest, this is my first time coming into contact with this creature. I really don't know what to do, so I can only ensure your safety before I wait and see what happens." After hearing my question, Chen Ye looked at me guiltily and said.
This...
Looking at Chen Ye's eyes, I was a little speechless.
This matter had nothing to do with Chen Ye to begin with. I was already grateful that Chen Ye was able to protect me, but what the hell does he feel guilty about?
"Is this barrier useful?" Looking at Chen Ye's expression, I couldn't bear to continue asking, so I changed the topic.
The barrier sounded very powerful, but... I've never been in contact with it, and I don't know if it'll work.
No... No, when the spirit caught me, he also created a barrier.
"Although I can't guarantee your safety, at least I can delay you." Glancing at the barrier he had set up, Chu Yu said to me.
But — I really don't understand Chu Yu's explanation.
What do you mean by not being able to completely guarantee my safety, but at least being able to stall for time?
After talking for a long time, was this thing useful or not?
"Although I don't know if this Spirit Formation is able to stop the Spirit from entering, if he really does want to enter, at least he can delay me a bit and let me rush over." Seemingly noticing my doubt, Chu Yu took the initiative to explain to me.
However — — When I heard Chu Yu's words, the corner of my mouth twitched.
What the hell? Even after talking for so long, my safety is still not guaranteed.
Forget it, forget it, I'll just die early and late. Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well resign myself to fate.
If I am lucky enough to survive, then everyone would be happy. If I am really that unlucky, causing my death, then I can only hope that my spiritual energy will give me a quick death. Don't let me suffer so much.
"Can you stop looking like you're going to die? Wasn't there something wrong? "Everything has not happened yet, so there is a change. Don't be so pessimistic yet, maybe you will live for a hundred years." Seeing that I didn't have anything to live for, Chen Ye couldn't help but pat my shoulders as he spoke to me.
I raised my head to look at Chen Ye, and barely managed to force out a smile. He kept his head down, not saying a word.
If you want to comfort me, can you say something nice?
Maybe I can live for a hundred years?
What do you mean maybe?
