Free Web NovelChapter 588: Chapter 58: Xia Yue
Before, she didn’t understand anything, and it was better that way... But ever since meeting you, I haven’t known what she’s thinking anymore.
And as for Si Yujie, don’t be fooled by her seeming maturity. At the end of the day, she’s just an immature older girl, loving the hustle, fearing solitude, very much enjoying chatting with others. Her current patience is entirely thanks to Xiaoyan... Essentially, she’s the same type as Tang Language, just more restrained."
"As for Wu You, he’s always been very conscious of his Authority Ability, and very aware of its impact on his life, considering it a curse. The existence of Heart Sound Reflection makes living freely nearly impossible for him. During major events, he basically can’t resist his inner voice and seeks the meaning of life through minor matters.
But this is akin to drinking poison to quench thirst. If it weren’t for you... further down the road, he might fear making decisions or even seek extreme liberation.
After all, constantly making the right choices isn’t easy... Making a decision to abandon teammates, and then having things go wrong, the subsequent psychological torment could drive a person insane.
... Fortunately, you’re strong enough, strong to the point where he actually feels he’s made the right decision."
Chen Lusi: "..."
"In general, they all have their shortcomings."
Xia Yue withdrew his gaze, looked toward the sea, and said softly, "But it’s precisely these shortcomings that make them more alive. After spending so much time with them, I do... quite like them. Please be patient with them in the future."
"..."
Chen Lusi looked confusedly at Xia Yue.
Xia Yue turned back, meeting Chen Lusi’s gaze, smiled, and said, "Remember when I asked you to protect my back... Do you recall this request?"
"... Understood."
Chen Lusi, hearing this, immediately recalled the conversation he had with Xia Yue when they first met, suddenly realizing, and gently nodded his head.
"Thank you."
Xia Yue, smiling, lightly patted Chen Lusi’s shoulder, then expressed his thanks.
Chen Lusi shook his head, gazing out at the sea.
It was then he noticed.
In the distance.
Dark clouds were floating above the sea, slowly moving in their direction.
It seemed the wind had picked up.
... The sea breeze was gradually strengthening. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
"Is it going to rain?"
Chen Lusi glanced at the barbecue grill emitting a fragrant aroma and then at the sky, feeling a bit worried.
"Most likely... but don’t worry."
Xia Yue lightly nodded, then patted Chen Lusi’s shoulder again, smiling, "It will clear up soon."
...
Though Xia Yue had said it would clear up, the current weather clearly didn’t change as he’d predicted.
Dark clouds still blanketed the sky, continuously moving towards them.
After finishing a barbecue.
The sky had turned entirely gloomy, densely covered with dark clouds, while the sea breeze grew stronger, stirring ripples on the sea, causing sand on the beach to fly wildly in the wind, forming a scene of wind-swept sand everywhere.
"Why does it feel... not quite right?"
Si Yujie, while clearing up the aftermath, noticed the sky’s shift that made her faintly uneasy and looked towards Xia Yue.
"It does feel off, you should take the young girl back first."
Xia Yue also looked up at the sky and then said, "I’ll handle it."
"..."
Si Yujie glanced at her daughter clinging to Chen Lusi to shield from the wind, hesitated for a moment, and nodded, "Okay, is it an intruder?"
"Not clear yet."
Xia Yue shook his head, "But I will figure it out and deal with it."
Chen Lusi looked at Xia Yue, also feeling the weather wasn’t quite right, hesitated for a moment, "Should I stay too?"
"No need for now, just a minor issue."
Xia Yue smiled, "It’s not time for you to step in; it’s my turn now."
Chen Lusi: "..."
On the other side, Wu You wasn’t too worried, as Xia Yue’s invincible image was deeply ingrained in everyone’s minds.
He even had the mind to joke around, hooked Xia Yue’s neck, discussing where they should go next.
And Xia Yue also bantered with him for a few moments.
This directly stopped Xia Panqiu from worrying, leaving just a word of caution before getting in the car.
The return trip was without Xia Yue.
Chen Lusi took the driver’s seat. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
He started the car... then glanced in the rearview mirror, seeing Xia Yue stretching, completely relaxed.
Even after the car started, Xia Yue had the leisure to wave goodbye to the group.
He then fully relaxed, focusing on driving.
Soon.
The car slowly left the beach.
Xia Yue waved his hand, seeing the car off in the distance, then slowly retracted his smile, took a deep breath, turned to face the sea still heavy with dark clouds, and slowly exhaled two hot breaths.
He slowly raised his right arm... and clenched his fist sharply.
Then, aimed directly at the thick clouds in the sky and swung forward.
In an instant, fist power burst!
... The entire beach! Radiated brilliantly!

"Stop the car!!!!!"
On the other side.
The car had just left the beach when.
Chen Lusi just saw the national road when Si Yujie’s shout faintly reached them.
"..."
Chen Lusi heard it and immediately slammed on the brakes.
The tires screeched against the ground, leaving several clear marks.
At the same time.
Wu You in another car also slammed the brakes, stopping the vehicle.
"What’s wrong?"
Chen Lusi rolled down the window, looking at the car stopped next to him.
Si Yujie directly pushed open the car door, walked down, and said with a frown, "Ji Xin just contacted me, saying..."
