Su Xiaolu smiled and replied, “Oh, is that so? Then we’re unlucky today.”

The two of them walked quietly by the moat and fell silent, as if they had nothing else to say.

Su Xiaolu couldn’t help but wonder why it was like this. Wasn’t it fine the last time they met?

Why did she feel strange this time? Some strange thoughts ran uncontrollably into her mind.

These thoughts told her that there was a difference between men and women. ‘You are a big girl. You have grown up.’

Su Xiaolu was speechless.

“Xiaolu, where are you going after this trip to Qinghai?”

Zhou Zhi stopped in his tracks. He spoke first. He could feel that Su Xiaolu’s feelings for him were changing. Was she starting to realize it? It was best for him to gradually leave, but for some reason, he, who had always been self-contained, could not do it. He still wanted to approach her.

He even had a crazy idea to reveal his feelings while Su Xiaolu was starting to feel something.

“I don’t know yet. The carriage should be repaired by now. It’s a little cold. We’d better go back.”

Su Xiaolu was a little distracted. For some reason, she did not want to continue.

Zhou Zhi didn’t ask further. The two of them walked back silently.

Jin Si leaned against the carriage and didn’t repair it at all.

“Jin Si, what’s wrong? Is it difficult to fix?”

Su Xiaolu asked curiously.

Jin Si was shocked. He did not expect his master and Su Xiaolu to return so quickly. He quickly stood up and explained helplessly, “Yes, it’s a little troublesome…”

Ignoring his embarrassment, he began to check the wheels of the carriage.

“Do you need my help?”

Su Xiaolu went forward. She only wanted to go home as soon as possible.

Zhou Zhi stood at the side and watched without saying anything. His gaze was fixed on Su Xiaolu.

Jin Si wanted to say no, but Su Xiaolu had already squatted down.

Under Zhou Zhi’s gaze, Su Xiaolu helped Jin Si repair the wheel.

It was not a big problem. It was just that one of the nodes had loosened.

After repairing the carriage, Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi got into the carriage together. The two of them did not speak.

Jin Si sighed and pulled the reins. This time, there was no malfunction and he sent Su Xiaolu home safely.

After Su Xiaolu returned home, Jin Si began to return.

He could clearly feel the change in Zhou Zhi’s emotions.

Su Xiaolu returned to her room and lay on the bed. Her thoughts ran wild. She could not help but recall what Su Xiaoling had asked her.

Her sister asked her, “Xiaolu, do you have a man you like?”

“You said that you like people who are skilled in martial arts. Have you ever met such a person?”

What did she answer then?

She said that she did not have one yet. Not for the time being.

When she left the palace at night and met Zhou Zhi, these words kept replaying in her mind. She became strange. Anyway, she didn’t want to stay with Zhou Zhi and only wanted to go home as soon as possible.

Su Xiaolu was depressed, but she did not know who to talk to. She entered the Space.

Mantis Shrimp fell asleep with the Interface Stone in its arms. Its saliva flowed out and wet the Interface Stone.

Su Xiaolu poked his chubby calf. Mantis Shrimp opened its eyes. “Xiaolu, you’re here to see me.”

Su Xiaolu picked up Mantis Shrimp and placed it on her lap. She asked softly, “Mantis Shrimp, you’ve inherited so many memories. Do you know about feelings? The feelings of love between humans.”

“I’ve lived more than twenty years in my previous life, but I’ve never been in love. Not once. Do you understand love?”

Su Xiaolu was not sure if she liked Zhou Zhi. She needed to talk to someone who knew about such things.

She couldn’t tell her parents about this yet. She wouldn’t tell anyone until she was sure of her feelings.

Mantis Shrimp opened its eyes. After looking at Su Xiaolu, it said honestly, “Xiaolu, I don’t understand. My mission is to grow up and do what Guardian Beasts should do. One day, when I’m old and have to reproduce and pass on my legacy, I’ll look for other Guardian Beasts.”

Feelings were a little difficult for Guardian Beasts.

“Uh… okay.”

Su Xiaolu sighed.

She was so frustrated that she simply lay down on the edge of the medicinal field. Mantis Shrimp lay on her abdomen and found a comfortable position to sleep.

“Xiaolu, although I don’t understand, I know the survival of the fittest. When we reproduce, we have to find the most powerful. It’s the same for people. Do you have someone you like? You can let me take a look and see if he’s strong.”

Mantis Shrimp said after thinking seriously.

Su Xiaolu sighed. “I don’t know if I like him or not. How can I be sure that I like him?”

“Give what you like to the other party and do many things for them, including life. In the future, if I meet a Guardian Beast that wants to reproduce, I’ll sacrifice my life for her. The power I accumulate in my life will make my child very healthy.”

Mantis Shrimp thought for a moment and said. After that, he yawned and muttered, “Aiya, I haven’t grown up yet. I’m thinking too far ahead.”

Su Xiaolu touched Mantis Shrimp’s head and asked in surprise, “Then do you mean that you will die when you look for a wife? Will your wife be the one to eat you up?”

Su Xiaolu looked terrified. She thought of the mantis. She looked at the cute Mantis Shrimp and could not imagine him being eaten.

“How terrifying. Why would she eat me? Could it be that you humans are like this??? I’ve never seen it before!!!”

Mantis Shrimp was also shocked. It stood up from Su Xiaolu’s stomach, its round black eyes revealing shock and fear.

Su Xiaolu was speechless.

“Xiaolu, I know that humans eat beasts. There doesn’t seem to be anything that humans don’t eat. W-would you want to eat me?”

Mantis Shrimp looked at Su Xiaolu with fear and helplessness.

“No, where were we?”

Su Xiaolu quickly explained. She stroked Mantis Shrimp’s cute head and rubbed its smooth fur.

“You’ve misunderstood. I won’t eat you. We’re friends.”

Seeing that Mantis Shrimp was frightened, Su Xiaolu quickly comforted it. She said, “You just said that your clan will reproduce and pass on your power to your descendants. What’s that about? I thought you wanted the female Guardian Beast to eat you.”

“Of course not. Eating me is too terrifying. It’s just that after we’re together, I’ll transfer all my energy to her and I’ll die quickly. At that time, I won’t remember anything and I’ll be like an ordinary ferocious beast.”

Mantis Shrimp heaved a sigh of relief. He still had many secrets that he had not told Su Xiaolu.

It was not that he did not want to say it, but one of the inherited memories was to be wary of humans. Humans were dangerous and cunning and they had to be vigilant at all times.

He was weak and helpless now. It would not do him any good if he told her everything.

“I see. In our human world, there’s a kind of insect called the mantis. When it reproduces, the female mantis will eat the male mantis. I thought your race was the same.”

Su Xiaolu explained her doubts.
