At that mont, Xia Wei’er’s tears kept flowing uncontrollably, a mix of grievance, reluctance, anger, and sha surged into her heart.
The two sat opposite each other, silent for a long while, until Xia Wei’er wiped her tears and forced a smile:
"Regardless, you have done a great favor, and I am very grateful to you. Thank you also for saying goodbye before you left. Consider this al my farewell to you!"
"Alright, you take good care of yourself." Tang Ming nodded, picked up his chopsticks but really couldn’t eat anymore.
"Tang Ming, why do you suddenly have to go?" Xia Wei’er stared intently at Tang Ming and asked.
"There’s no particular reason, just that being a bodyguard for Liu ngting is too dangerous, and I don’t want to take risks anymore."
Tang Ming offered a reason, which was also his excuse to fend off Liu ngting and Li Xiaoli.
"That’s not right." Xia Wei’er shook her head and said firmly:
"You are not the type who is timid and afraid of things, nor would you break a contract out of fear. Sothing must have happened to force you to leave, right?"
"What could possibly force to leave? I just don’t want to do it anymore, so I decided to leave. Don’t overthink it!"
Tang Ming cracked a wry smile, thinking to himself: "Turns out the person who understands best is Xia Wei’er. This girl usually doesn’t say much, but she actually guessed the truth. Impressive!"
Xia Wei’er stared at him for a few seconds, then said with conviction:
"You are lying to , sothing must have happened. Before you suddenly got a call from Liu ngting and rushed off, sothing big happened during this period. If you don’t tell , I’m going to call Liu ngting."
"Don’t, I’ve already terminated the contract with Liu ngting, why bring her up again by calling and asking about ?"
Tang Ming quickly tried to stop Xia Wei’er, knowing if she really collaborated with Liu ngting and Li Xiaoli, they would inevitably deduce so clues, which would complicate matters.
"Then tell , what exactly happened?"
Seeing Tang Ming looking guilty, Xia Wei’er was even more certain of her guess.
"Truly, nothing happened, look, aren’t I alright?"
Tang Ming helplessly shrugged his shoulders, showing Xia Wei’er his body.
"I don’t believe it!" Xia Wei’er uttered these three words.
Just at that mont, the at in the pot had scorched. Xia Wei’er quickly seized on this.
"Your appetite is off, that ans there’s sothing wrong with your body, otherwise eat all this food, and then I will believe you."
Tang Ming looked at the full table of food. In the past, these wouldn’t even be enough to get stuck between his teeth, but now...
"I’ll eat!"
Tang Ming smiled, feigned composure, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat enormously, forcing himself to swallow.
After about ten minutes, Tang Ming cried; the feeling of stuffing himself when he was already full was too painful, he felt he might vomit if he continued.
"You really do have a problem."
Seeing Tang Ming’s pained expression, Xia Wei’er quickly handed him a drink.
"How did you get so smart?"
Tang Ming hurriedly drank the beverage, forcing the food down as he was indeed choking.
"Can you tell now, what exactly happened?"
Xia Wei’er felt no pride, but rather her mood beca heavier and heavier.
Tang Ming glanced around to make sure no one was around, then reluctantly looked at Xia Wei’er and whispered,
"My cultivation is gone. During the rescue of Liu ngting, I was seriously injured, and there was a problem with my ridians. It led to the loss of my cultivation. Now, I am just an ordinary person."
"Is that really possible?"
Xia Wei’er widened her eyes and asked with concern, "How are your injuries now?"
"The injuries have healed, but without cultivation, I can’t be Liu ngting’s bodyguard anymore. I can only choose to leave."
Tang Ming gave a bitter smile. He originally didn’t want anyone to know that his cultivation was gone, but unexpectedly he couldn’t keep it from Xia Wei’er.
However, this might be for the better, allowing Xia Wei’er to understand that he was no longer the powerful Tang Ming; perhaps this would break her attachnt to him.
"Why do you have to leave?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Wei’er felt unexpectedly happy and sincerely said,
"Liu ngting doesn’t need you to be her bodyguard, so you don’t have to leave! You can continue with school; I am also an ordinary person, and I still go to school every day!"
"It’s not as simple as you think." Tang Ming sighed heavily and said,
"I previously offended too many people, all of whom are very powerful. Once they know my cultivation is gone, they will definitely co to seek revenge. Also, those who want to harm Liu ngting will swarm over. By then, I won’t have any ability to protect myself, and will die horribly."
"I see, then hiding is indeed necessary." Xia Wei’er suddenly realized, then looked at Tang Ming with complicated feelings,
"You just said so many harsh words, you were probably hoping I would forget about you, weren’t you?"
"Uh..."
Tang Ming wanted to refute, but didn’t know how to start.
"Why are you so foolish!"
Xia Wei’er’s eyes reddened again, thinking of Tang Ming trying to play the villain before leaving so as not to drag her down, her heart filled with emotion.
"I am now disabled, without the ability to take care of you like before, and accompanying involves many dangers. I do not want you to waste your ti on ." Tang
Ming sighed again, expressing his true thoughts.
"I don’t think it’s a waste of ti. If you must go, I can go with you!"
Xia Wei’er said emotionally.
At her age, Xia Wei’er was at the stage where love is paramount, willing to do anything for an imagined perfect romance, which is why many girls end up mistreated by bad people.
"Even knowing I lost my cultivation, you are still willing to like ?"
Hearing this, Tang Ming was moved. To say he didn’t like Xia Wei’er at all would be lying; however, he had always thought Xia Wei’er’s feelings for him were more gratitude than love, which is why he had never taken it seriously.
"No matter what you beco, as long as you are willing to accept , I will follow you."
Xia Wei’er looked at Tang Ming firmly, "If you must go, you can take with you. If it’s not convenient, then I can wait for you or wait until I grow up, and then I’ll co find you."
"Stop talking!" Tang Ming interrupted Xia Wei’er, shaking his head as he said,
"I can’t take you with , because I also don’t know what will happen next. If I find a way to restore my cultivation, I will definitely co back; if I can’t, then I will never return. You should focus on your studies for now, and after you graduate from college, if you still feel the sa way, you can co look for ."
