Chapter 305: Love is About Giving, Not Taking

"Chomp, chomp..."

Watching Qin Jian and Shui Bing'er start kissing passionately right before their eyes, the veins on Huo Wu's forehead throbbed.

Over there, Tang San, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun were munching on Sausage, while sneakily observing the expressions of Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu.

The three of them had identical expressions and identical actions: arms crossed over their chests, their faces full of sour jealousy.

"Hey! Have you two had enough yet?!"

Huo Wu could bear it no longer and flipped the table.

She was seen forcefully pulling Shui Bing'er away, pointing a finger at Qin Jian with an extremely arrogant air: "I want to be your sister too!"

"Clap, clap, clap..."

The onlookers felt their eyeballs drop to the floor.

What made their eyes and ears burn even more was Qin Jian smiling slightly: "Alright, sister."

Afterward, the two hugged each other and started gnawing on one another.

Everyone: "..."

"So after breaking up, you can do whatever you want just by putting on a title; my store of strange knowledge has increased again..." Oscar said gloomily.

Ma Hongjun looked at the sky with a sense of hopelessness: "Throughout this whole competition, right up to graduation and parting ways, Brother Jian still doesn't forget to give us a show... This spirit of self-sacrifice for the sake of others, we are no match for it..."

Tang San looked at them with wonder: "Where did you learn this strange way of speaking?"

"Resentment in the dark is compelling us to say it..."

Tang San: "..."

"Let's go, let's go!"

Huo Wu suddenly separated from Qin Jian, turned back, grabbed Shui Bing'er, and strode away: "What's the point of tearful goodbyes? Anyway, if I miss him later, I'll just come find him!"

Seeing Shui Bing'er still looking back incessantly, tears shimmering in her icy eyes, Huo Wu twisted her head back with a jerk: "Stop looking! Isn't he just a big pig's trotter?! You can throw him away after you're done gnawing, what else is there to look at!"

Qin Jian: "..."

"Pfft!"

Shui Bing'er couldn't help but laugh through her tear-blurred eyes, but when she looked back, she saw that tears were already hanging on Huo Wu's face.

Yet she insisted on putting on an indifferent act; she really was a tsundere.

"I hope that when we meet again, we will not have forgotten our original intentions."

No trace of sorrow at parting could be seen on Qin Jian's face, only anticipation for the future.

Shui Bing'er and Huo Wu paused their steps, then both nodded fiercely: "Okay."

Seeing them finally go far away, their figures no longer visible, Qin Jian turned back.

"Ice and Fire Dual Heavens, how does it feel?"

Ning Rongrong's chilly voice entered his ears, but Qin Jian didn't take the bait; he just smiled: "Rongrong, you should be returning to the sect with Ning Shu and your teacher next, right?"

"Who said I was going back to the sect?"

Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes: "Can't I stay here too?"

"What?"

Qin Jian was full of question marks: "What is a little princess of a sect doing staying in Wuhun City?"

Ning Rongrong's eyes softened: "I'm not like those two fools! Why must I go out to train? Can't I cultivate in Wuhun City? I don't want to leave you!"

"We're the same!"

Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu said in unison.

Qin Jian: "..."

"Is this your plan?"

Qin Jian was sweating profusely: "This is Wuhun City, I don't even know what kind of crises I will encounter next; are you here to be living targets?"

Ning Rongrong frowned: "No matter what, they wouldn't directly lay a hand on us, would they?"

Qin Jian shook his head: "No matter the time, we cannot pin our hopes on the mercy of our enemies; you cannot stay here, that is without question."

At this, Ning Rongrong no longer had a smiling expression, and her mood plummeted.

Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu were the same.

"Rongrong, Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu, for these next few years, I cannot continue to walk by your sides..."

Qin Jian looked at them and said softly: "Whether this is etched in our bones or just a castle in the air, let us wait and see."

"I know that, in fact, you have always been accommodating me..."

The youth smiled, his expression gentle and reserved.

"I know that you are all the proudest women in this world, and you have your own self-confidence and self-respect..."

"If you hadn't chosen me, you could have completely committed your lives to someone else..."

"I often wonder, what is so good about me that is worth you waiting for me, worth you being unable to let go..."

"I really... am not worth it at all..."

Qin Jian raised his hand to block their words and said softly: "Let me finish..."

"I am a person, oh no... I am still a Soul Beast right now... I have lived for a very, very long time... In those muddled days, I developed a huge craving, a craving to be loved, a craving for care, a craving for everything..."

"I cultivated desperately, I crossed tribulations desperately, and it was never to become a god..."

"I only did it to possess the beauty of this world once more..."

Qin Jian lowered his head and said: "If becoming a god means giving up these beautiful things, I probably wouldn't want to become a god."

"So, although it seems like an irresistible rule is pushing me to do these things, to go from falling in love to breaking up with each of you..."

He pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "But actually... I actually... myself..."

This sentence seemed extremely difficult for him to say, but he still closed his eyes and said: "I actually wanted it myself... I am truly too greedy... You are all so lovable, I don't want to let go of a single one of you."

"Clap, clap, clap..."

The melon-eating sausages in the mouths of Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Tang San fell all over the floor.

But Qin Jian acted as if he hadn't heard, his eyes still closed: "It's really hard to admit that I'm not a pure-hearted person, because the mainstream value in this world is for a couple to be together for a lifetime... but I happen to be so amorous, so amorous that even I feel I'm excessively scummy..."

Ning Rongrong and the other two didn't speak, just watching him silently.

Everyone had their own thoughts and reflections in their hearts, and now that Qin Jian was clearly dissecting himself before them, it was because he wanted them to see clearly what kind of person was standing before them.

"In the past, every time we broke up, I would say I didn't want to let go, that I wanted you to wait for me, but this time..."

Qin Jian suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze burning: "For this separation, I want to say that five years of time is enough for us to think clearly again about what we want; if we are destined not to walk together, then let's treat it as a test."

"I won't force you to wait for me anymore..."

"I love you, so I also hope you get what you want, rather than accommodating my selfish desires."

The back that had been slightly hunched since Qin Jian began to speak his heart finally straightened up again at this moment.

"As a Love Flower, if I don't even understand the principle that love is about giving rather than taking, then these Ten Thousand Year of cultivation were truly in vain."

"Brother Jian..."

Ning Rongrong watched him silently and said softly: "Are you really not saying these things to make us even more unwilling to leave you?"

Qin Jian: "..."

"I guess he just doesn't want us around to disturb him from pursuing new girls," Zhu Zhuqing said coldly with her arms crossed.

"Hmph! Stinky brother is a heartless radish to begin with, who among us doesn't know that!"

Xiao Wu put her hands on her hips: "You haven't even broken up with me yet, and you're already thinking about new ones!"
