Luo Wanqing remained silent. She had been here for seven or eight years, and she hadn't mentioned this matter to anyone. Now that she had told Qi Zhenzhen, and her feelings, which she had been self-感动 about, were so ruthlessly exposed, she felt a little disheartened.
"Has anyone ever told you that you're not very lovable when you speak?" Luo Wanqing said glumly.
"Do you want me to be lovable? I can be lovable! You know, as a qualified mercenary, I can arrange what kind of person I want to play for each mission. Do you want the gentle and demure type, the cold and stunning type, or the delicate and obedient type? Don't worry, I'll be whatever you want." Qi Zhenzhen said seriously.
Luo Wanqing was amused. "Listening to your tone, even a movie queen can't compare to you."
"That's right. Movie queens perform either out of love for acting or for money. My performance is for survival. When it comes to life, nothing else compares!" Qi Zhenzhen said with a hint of pride.
"Then are you performing now, or is this your true nature?" Luo Wanqing asked.
Qi Zhenzhen pursed her lips and smiled. "What do you think?"
Luo Wanqing understood. "Let's not talk about this. Continue talking about you and Gu Sinian. Where did you meet for the second time? And when did you fall for him?"
Qi Zhenzhen then recounted the incident where she saved Gu Sinian and Qian Yuanbao, and of course, she didn't hide the fact that she could communicate with animals.
"My heavens, look at my face, look closely. Do you see the immense jealousy on it? I had the same experience, why didn't I get such benefits?" Luo Wanqing exclaimed.
"Stop, stop, stop. Strictly speaking, this isn't a benefit from our shared experience. In my past life, I could also communicate with beasts, but the range of beasts was limited. This life, it's just a bit better than the last!"
Regarding this, Qi Zhenzhen had only recently discovered it. She speculated that it might be related to her drinking the sacred spring water in the wolf tribe's sacred land, as she couldn't understand the language of smaller beasts before.
"Then your treatment is still better than mine," Luo Wanqing said resentfully.
"Do you want to hear more?" Qi Zhenzhen gave her a side-eye.
"You continue." Luo Wanqing sat up straight, assuming an attentive posture.
When Qi Zhenzhen mentioned Gu Sinian offering to repay her with his life, Luo Wanqing couldn't help but laugh heartily. "He's actually so shameless to say something like that. If Qian Yuanbao said it, it would be more normal. So I think he must have had a good impression of you back then. Tsk tsk, is this a case of a thousand-year-old iron tree blooming? After all, when I first met him, Lu Chen and I had the same worry that this guy might die alone. I never expected it! This is exclusive inside information, Lu Chen definitely doesn't know. I must tell him properly when I get back."
Qi Zhenzhen was somewhat speechless. "It was just a joke. You are his friends, don't you know he..."
Luo Wanqing's expression turned strange. "You're talking about the rumors outside that he likes men? No way, can rumors be believed? It's just hearsay! At most, he's just not interested in women. That's because he hasn't met the right person. Now that he's met you, hasn't he?"
"He admitted it to me himself, and we have an agreement. This engagement is just to draw external attention to me, thereby protecting the person he wants to protect," Qi Zhenzhen said helplessly.
"Admitted it himself?" Luo Wanqing was a bit stunned. She knew very well that Gu Sinian didn't have that kind of preference, but Qi Zhenzhen didn't seem like she was lying. Was there something wrong here?
