Kesha slowly woke up with a warm and peaceful feeling, as if she was being gently wrapped in soft clouds.

She slightly opened her slightly tired eyes, her vision gradually focused, and what came into view was that extremely familiar face - He Xi.

Those gentle features looked especially soft in the morning light.

Memories came flooding back, and she remembered that the fierce battle a few days ago had left them physically and mentally exhausted.

At this moment, she and He Xi were clinging to each other, so close that they could almost hear each other's heartbeats.

As long as she moved slightly, she could touch He Xi's soft and warm lips. This closeness made Kesha's heart beat faster involuntarily.

Keisha lay quietly in Hexi's arms, her eyes unconsciously falling on Hexi's peaceful sleeping face.

Especially the pair of tightly closed eyes, the long eyelashes are like two small fans, gently covering the eyelids.

Keisha's memory goes back to the distant past. At that time, He Xi's eyelashes were silver-white, shining with a mysterious and cold luster. Now, their eyelashes have turned black like those of ordinary people. However, no matter how they have changed, the unique charm of He Xi has never diminished.

Keisha looked at Hexi quietly. How she wished that time could stop at this moment so that they could stay together like this forever.

However, physical fatigue and pain reminded her that the cruelty of reality cannot be ignored.

Although the holy body has amazing recovery ability, Kai'Sa has not yet fully recovered from last night's battle, and every movement is accompanied by waves of pain.

Just as she was trying to carefully adjust her posture to relieve the discomfort in her body, He Xi seemed to sense her movements and uttered a soft moan: "Hmm..."

She called out in a daze: "Kesha..."

Then, He Xi's arms tightened unconsciously, and she hugged Kesha even tighter, as if she was afraid that she would leave.

"Don't move." He Xi's voice was a little hoarse and full of sleepiness.

Hearing He Xi's slightly hoarse but gentle voice, Keisha stopped moving. She rested her head quietly on He Xi's arm, a hint of apology and helplessness in her eyes, and then she sighed softly.

This sigh seemed to carry all the fatigue and entanglement, but it was particularly clear in this quiet morning.

A strand of long golden hair slid down from Kesha's forehead and accidentally landed on her nose, bringing a slight but persistent itchy sensation.

She wrinkled her nose slightly, trying to dispel the discomfort in this way, but it was obviously not effective, and the strand of hair still harassed her mischievously.

In desperation, Keisha decided to wake up Hexi because it would be better to do so.

After all, they had no control over what happened, and perhaps... it was not their intention.

Last night's fierce battle and emotional entanglement had plunged them both into unprecedented fatigue and confusion, but at this moment, facing He Xi's tenderness and care, she hoped that the two of them could be honest with each other.

Keisha slowly pulled her still sore and weak arm out of Hexi's arms. Although every movement was accompanied by slight pain, she tried her best to keep her movements gentle.

Her fingers gently fell on He Xi's face, with a hint of hesitation and reluctance, she stroked it slightly and then quickly withdrew it, as if to confirm the reality and warmth.

"He Xi." Kesha called softly.

"Hmm..." He Xi, who was sleeping, seemed to feel Kesha's call. She frowned slightly, as if she was struggling back from the edge of the dream.

After a while, she slowly opened her eyes. When she saw that Kesha had woken up, she immediately hugged her tightly and asked with concern: "Why don't you rest a little longer? Your body has not fully recovered yet."

However, when He Xi noticed that Kesha was silent and had a complicated expression on her face, the last bit of sleepiness in her heart suddenly disappeared.

She looked at Kesha worriedly, her deep eyes full of concern for Kesha, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Having said that, He Xi sat up and wanted to use the space-based computing group to check the condition of Kesha's divine body.

But Kesha raised her hand to stop him, "No, I'm fine."

Kesha's movements to sit up seemed slow and difficult. The pain in her body made her frown. Her usually dignified and cold face now revealed a rare hint of weakness.

As she moved, the soft blanket that had been covering her slipped off instantly, revealing the mottled marks on her skin - red, purple, blue... They were like silent witnesses, recording the unspeakable passion and struggle of last night.

Keisha looked down at the ambiguous traces on her body. There was no panic or shyness in her eyes. She just calmly pulled up the thin blanket and held it in front of her.

Her expression was as calm as water, as if none of this had ever happened.

"He Xi," Kesha avoided He Xi's gaze, "Forget about it. This is not something we can control. We all know... that is the effect of the drug."

"After today, I will still be your queen."

Listening to Keisha's words, did He Xi think she was joking?

I've already slept, and now you're telling yourself this?

Countless question marks flashed through He Xi's mind, and she almost wondered if there was something wrong with her ears.

"Keisha, you're kidding...right?"

There was a hint of uncertainty in Hexi's voice. She hoped so much that this was just a joke made by Keisha to lighten the atmosphere, but Keisha's serious and earnest expression told her that this was all true.

There was no change in the expression on Kesha's face. "No, Hexi." After saying that, Kesha stood up from the bed and prepared to leave.

He Xi looked at Kesha, feeling full of resentment.

How could she give up so easily?

Was everything they had before fake?

No! No, it wasn't fake, she really got Kesha easily.

He Xi quickly stood up and walked to Keisha, blocking her way: "Keisha, look into my eyes and tell me that what you just said was just a joke, right!"

There was a hint of pleading in her voice, a hint of despair that was unwilling to accept reality.

Keisha pursed her lips tightly, her eyes flickering, and in the end she didn't have the courage to look at He Xi's eyes which were too clear, as if they could see through people's hearts.

She was afraid, afraid that she would see her own weakness and hesitation in those eyes.

The sunlight poured in from the window, bringing a hint of warmth to the room, but Keisha felt as if she was in the cold winter and could not feel any warmth at all.

She only felt that He Xi in front of her was like a burning flame, eager and hot. It seemed that as long as she denied all this, He Xi would be shattered by despair.

He Xi took a deep breath, trying to calm his agitated emotions.

She took another step forward and gently embraced Kesha in her arms, her deep eyes staring into hers, as if to convey all her feelings to her.

Her lips slowly moved closer, wanting to kiss Keisha's equally trembling lips: "Keisha, I love..."

However, Kesha's eyes fluctuated slightly at this moment, as if something had hit the softest part of her heart.

But she still forced herself to harden her heart, reached out her hand to gently push He Xi away, turned her head away, and didn't let He Xi see her expression: "He Xi, we can't be together."

He Xi was very unwilling to be pushed away. Seeing Kesha refusing to look at him, he bit his lip and asked, "Why?"

Keisha was silent for a moment, and finally spoke slowly. Those words were like a sharp blade, which not only hurt Hexi, but also hurt herself: "Hexi, you don't have to do this to consider my feelings."

"I didn't, Kesha, I always followed my own..."

"He Xi!" Kaisha interrupted He Xi's next words. She didn't know how to face He Xi now. "Drugs release the darkest side of our hearts. At that time, we were... impulsive."

"Let's make the best of a bad situation... It shouldn't be like this."

He Xi had heard this sentence thousands of years ago, and had also suffered from it thousands of years ago.

Now, it hit He Xi's heart again like a hammer, filling her blue eyes with disappointment and pain.

She didn't even dare to look at Kesha, fearing that she would see more determination and indifference in those eyes that were once full of tenderness and determination.

"So, you can just ignore my feelings like this?"

Keisha looked into Hexi's blue eyes that were once full of love, and then sighed softly: "Hexi, I'm sorry."

......

Thinking back to what happened that day, He Xi felt like something was blocking his heart and made him feel very uncomfortable.

Although he can still meet Kesha now, He Xi can also see that Kesha is deliberately avoiding him and avoiding meeting him.

Holding the exquisite teacup, He Xi turned his head and looked at the blue sky outside the window.

"My feelings...are they like this?"

"You don't seem to be looking at me seriously..."
