There is no Chapter 697

There’s only one way… kill him.

Fengguang stood at the bedside, quietly staring at the man’s flawless, sleeping face. The cold moonlight fell across her features, revealing the struggle in her eyes.

She wavered, though she didn’t even know why she was hesitating. As long as she killed him, everything would be resolved. She wouldn’t be trapped in that endless cycle of dying and reviving. Xiaoxiao would be safe, and the disappearance of the system must also be tied to him. Maybe if she killed him, then took her own life, she could return to that white space, and the system would be there again.

But could she guarantee everything would go the way she imagined?

No.

She couldn’t guarantee he would really die so easily, nor could she guarantee she’d actually see the system again after killing herself.

The situation had reached an impasse. It was a high-stakes gamble, and one she couldn’t afford to take.

Killing him didn’t have to be rushed.

That’s what she told herself. She needed to first confirm Xiaoxiao’s situation before making any decision. If he died just like that, she might never be able to find Xiaoxiao again.

In the end, she lay back down, turning her back to the man. She only managed to fall asleep near dawn.

Su Fa opened his eyes. His pitch-black gaze seemed darker than the night itself, yet all the more beautiful—carrying with it a dangerous allure. He wrapped his arm around her waist, a faint whisper slipping past his lips.

“Why… why won’t you believe me?”

The voice was so soft that the sleeping girl didn’t hear it.

The next morning dawned bright and clear.

Fengguang woke up. Normally, she would have slept until late in the day, but ever since she learned the truth, she didn’t dare sleep too long. She was terrified—terrified she might suddenly lose her memory again. And all of it was because of the man lying next to her.

Sleeping beside him felt no different from sleeping beside a man-eating tiger.

And yet, no matter how early she woke, Su Fa always seemed to be awake before her. Just as she sat up, he came in carrying a basin of water. He smiled.

“With Yunque gone, I’ll be the one to take care of your washing from now on.”

Fengguang blinked, needing a moment before she managed to force a smile. “I can handle those things myself.”

Even if he was trying to win her favor—so that she’d willingly hand over her heart—he was being far too attentive. She wasn’t a three-year-old child.

But Su Fa only said, “Helping Fengguang wash and dress is something I find… very enjoyable.”

“What’s enjoyable about that?”

“You don’t understand,” he replied, setting down the basin, then coming to smooth down her slightly messy hair. “No matter what I do for you, I think it’s enjoyable.” He brushed a kiss against the corner of her lips and chuckled. “Fengguang, let me take you to the mortal world.”

“The mortal world?” She froze at the sudden kiss, staring at him blankly. “Why are you suddenly saying you want to take me there?”

“These past few days, you’ve been stuck in the heavenly realm because of your injuries, hardly leaving Unnamed Residence at all. I thought I’d take you to the mortal world for a change of pace.”

“But don’t you still have classes?”

“Don’t worry. I’ve asked the dean for leave.”

Leave? Did he even need to? Even if he skipped the academy for several days straight, Taibai Jinxing wouldn’t say a word.
