'Murong Sui, the responsibility is between me and me. This has never been a multiple-choice question, because I am already standing by your side, you don't have to choose.'

Zhen Shan noticed that his back was becoming more and more tense, there were tears in his eyes, but there was a smile on his lips.

He once went into danger without telling her in the name of "being good for her", but he didn't blame him. Later, when her freedom was restricted, he realized that what he thought was good for her was not necessarily what she wanted.

So, this time, no matter how difficult it was, he still tried his best to convey his situation to her instead of hiding everything from her.

Even when he saw her here, he was more trying to persuade himself, rather than forcefully asking him to leave.

From the first time they met, this man put himself in the same position as him, protected him, and respected her.

He was like a pair of warm hands in the dark, holding her forward instead of walking for her.

Zhen Shan could not help but be moved by his feelings.

He's silly, but he's good, really good.

How could she bear to let him make difficult choices again?

Between responsibility and her, she makes him perfect.

"Shan Shan," Murong Sui said hoarsely, burying his face in her neck.

Zhen Shan noticed the warm liquid falling on her skin, her eyes trembled, 'Murong Sui, what's the way forward, let's face it together, okay?'

"I want to take you away, Shanshan. I don't want to care about anything. What do they have to do with me? Why should they take your life?"

Zhen Shan's heart felt so warm that it was suffocating. It was enough. His words were enough.

He grew up in the military, and military discipline and responsibility were engraved in his bones and blood. He died in battle, and defending the interstellar became her belief, which forged his pride.

But now, for her, he is willing to dig out that responsibility and pride no matter how painful it is.

With him like this, how could she bear to be tortured by guilt all her life? Life would be worse than death?

He has responsibilities, and they shoulder them together.

Life, coexistence, death, the same.

Zhen Shan opened his lips and called out his name word by word with difficulty, "Mu, Rong, Sui!"

Murong Sui's pale eyes opened slightly, and instead of a girl's voice with a somewhat mechanical mind, what came into his ears was a soft and waxy voice that was somewhat hoarse and unnatural.

It's not pleasant to the ear, but it's like a huge stone falling into his heart.

He slowly let go of her and looked into her beautiful, gentle and smiling eyes. He had a thousand words to say, but he was speechless.

"Murong Sui, Murong Sui..."

Zhen Shan called his name slowly and softly over and over again.

The original person was not really mute, but she was too frightened at that time, causing aphasia. Over the years, no one guided her properly, and her temper became more autistic, which made her seem to be mute for so many years.

After Zhen Shan came, she had been slowly trying to speak. In fact, she had already been able to speak, but three years ago, before she could give him a surprise, what happened to the Murong family.

Later, she was alone in the research institute, too lazy to speak out to others.

Murong Sui held the back of her head with his big palm, lowered his head, and muffled her voice. Just like that night three years ago, she lost control again.

…

Compared to the messy living room on the first floor, the bedroom on the second floor is simply decorated, but very clean.

On the bed, Zhen Shan rested on his arm and curled up in his arms. She was very tired, but not sleepy. She felt his big palm gently caressing her hair, and pity and guilty kisses fell on her forehead from time to time. There was helplessness in Zhen Shan's eyes.

, but not sad.

"Murong Sui," she called softly.

"Yeah, I'm here."

"If I don't come, will you have to do stupid things alone?"

Murong Sui's hands froze and he fell silent.

"I'm talking to you, idiot."

"Shanshan, I..."

After "I", he fell silent again, pursed his lips tightly.

Zhen Shan raised his head and rolled his eyes at him, "It's like this every time, as if I'm bullying you."

"no."

"What was that like?"

"I don't know how to say it, I'm afraid you'll be angry."

"When you did it beforehand, why weren't you worried that I would be angry?"

Murong Sui lowered his eyes. In her eyes, his clearly resolute and cold face turned into a face of grievance in bold letters.

Zhen Shan: "..."

It's clearly his fault, so why does it seem to be her fault?

"I didn't want to hide it from you."

"If you dare to hide it from me again, the news you hear now is the 'good news' that the insect mother is 'seriously injured' and the Zerg tribe has evacuated."

This kind of good news did not make Murong Sui show any joy or relaxation. Instead, his expression became tense to a new level, and the arms holding him tightened continuously, causing her pain without even realizing it.

How scared and uneasy he was, Zhen Shan could feel it even without looking into his eyes.

She sighed softly, but instead of reminding her, she stretched out her hands and hugged him tightly.

"Murong Sui, when I knew everything, I thought about kidnapping you, and then finding a way to erase your memory and hide you far away. I don't care about wars or interstellar safety."

Murong Sui's voice was hoarse, "Why not do this?"

Zhen Shan raised his head, "If I were like this, would you hate me?"

"No," he said without any hesitation, "You are not wrong, Shanshan."

The responsibility is his, not hers.

Zhen Shan's heart was soft and sour, "Murong Sui, I am really selfish. Everyone in the interstellar thinks that I am a great genius mechanic, but they don't know that I designed the mecha. I never wanted to protect them, nor was it to resist the Zerg."

, but because of my own selfishness."

"No matter what your true intentions are, no one can compare to what you do, and no one can deny it."

Zhen Shan chuckled, "When I met you later, my ideological consciousness seemed to have improved, but in fact, all I wanted was to have a common topic with you and make you look at me differently."

Murong Sui's thin lips raised, softening his stern brows, and for her, the steel turned into softness around the fingers.

"I'm honored and even happier."

Zhen Shan's beautiful little face was stained with a trace of blush, and she hummed, "Of course you will be honored, but not everyone can win my favor."

Murong Sui nodded solemnly and seriously, "Well, meeting Shanshan is the greatest luck."

"Oh, you," Zhen Shan pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed.

She was making a little joke, but she didn't expect this idiot to take her words seriously and take them so seriously, which made the usually calm Demon Concubine feel a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong?"

General Murong, who was pouring out his heartfelt words, was a little confused. What did he say wrong?

Zhen Shan looked at his serious expression, a little helpless and funny at the same time.

Since the two of them had known each other, he sometimes gave her the feeling that he was enlightened, his emotional intelligence had skyrocketed, and his silent little actions always aroused her. Sometimes she felt that he was still so stupid and dumb, and she felt helpless.
