"Does it hurt?" Lin Yue's voice trembled slightly.
"It's okay, they can't really hurt me." Qin Chuan's voice was filled with ease, as if the person who spent 50 seconds on Time Stop during the instance wasn't him.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hidden my identity." Lin Yue pressed her cheek harder against Qin Chuan's shoulder, "If I hadn't concealed it, we could have faced it together."
"The moment I knew your identity, I understood the reason you hid it." Qin Chuan's voice was soft as he lifted a hand and gently stroked Lin Yue's smooth hair, "With your personality, you wouldn't tell me until you were cured."
He had liked her personality from the start; how could he blame her for that?
"Besides, Semia Abyss is a solo instance, and no matter what, it would have been me who ended up going." Qin Chuan chuckled wryly, "I just never realized, you have always been by my side."
"No wonder the Yanjing top student I never met always lent me their notes in class."
