Gu Yelin's lips curled into a gentle smile as he turned to plate the warmed night snack, "Tutu, don't overthink it, I've got everything covered. No matter what happens, we're in this together."
"Mm," An Yiqing responded softly, her eyes reddening. He knew, he understood what she feared in her heart. Ever since she learned the fate of the Chosen One, she had been restless. She wasn't afraid of dying, but rather afraid of being apart from him. Over the past month, she had kept her worries subdued, yet the unease within her grew even stronger. Now, finally able to see him, touch him, she feared that these moments might one day no longer be hers.
Placing the night snack on the dining table, Gu Yelin squatted in front of An Yiqing and firmly grasped her hands.
"Honey," his dark eyes were deep, filled with warmth, "don't be afraid. If one day you really have to return to the void, I'll go with you. No matter where, I'll stay by your side."
