Chapter 1037: I Want to Have a Fight with You

~5 min read 975 words

Xiao Han just stood there, and apart from saying "Long time no see," he made no other moves.

As if he really was just catching up, if one ignored the missions between them.

Ning Chen sized up Xiao Han. The current Xiao Han didn't have that previous hostility; his entire being radiated just two words: peace.

Seeing the two of them staring at each other, Lin Yi was somewhat at a loss and confused. Why were these two looking at each other so 'tenderly'? Taken a liking to each other?

"Ning... Chen, what's going on here?"

Ning Chen withdrew his gaze, but remained guarded against Xiao Han, ready to protect the others at the slightest disturbance.

Lin Yi hadn't expected Ning Chen to answer him in the first place. Seeing that Ning Chen wasn't talking, he stopped asking him and instead looked at Xiao Han across from him.

Lin Yi wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but he always felt that the current Xiao Han seemed a little different from the previous one. As for what was different, he just couldn't tell.

The scene fell into a standstill for a moment. No one knew what Xiao Han wanted to do, and Ning Chen didn't ask either, so they just faced off against each other like that.

Seeing that Xiao Han didn't seem to have any ill intent, Lin Yi—the social butterfly—had to step in. He slowly stepped forward and asked.

"Uh, um, Xiao Han? Is there something you need?"

Their side had sent someone to negotiate, but the other party only moved his fingers slightly, without speaking.

At this, Lin Yi was on the verge of tears. Great, another Ning Chen No. 2 has appeared. Judging by this, it looked like there was no way to get the other party to speak.

But what Lin Yi didn't expect was that after about five minutes, Xiao Han answered his question.

"I want to have a fight with Ning Chen."

After hearing Xiao Han speak and the content of his answer, Lin Yi's mind went blank for a moment. His first thought was, is this person's reaction arc really this long?

"A fight?"

Lin Yi looked at Ning Chen, only to see that Ning Chen had no particular expression, looking as if he knew something.

"Ning Chen, I need to have a fight with you."

This time, Xiao Han didn't respond to Lin Yi, but looked at Ning Chen, a hint of pleading showing in his eyes.

At this, Ning Chen could be certain that the person before him was completely different from the previous Xiao Han.

From the moment they first met, Ning Chen had felt something was off. The person before him had no desire to attack at all, was very calm, even so calm it felt somewhat pure.

Even though he had just said he wanted to fight, there was no bloodthirsty desire in his eyes, as if he really just wanted to fight.

This was simply like a completely different person from the previous one filled with killing intent.

If the other party weren't wearing Xiao Han's face and could accurately call out his name, Ning Chen would have suspected the person before him was a fake.

Ning Chen looked at Xiao Han carefully, then looked into his eyes, trying to see something in them.

"Ding, mission issued: Have a fight with Xiao Han, open the spacetime tunnel."

Hearing the system's voice, Ning Chen was stunned for a moment. He narrowed his eyes slightly. Open the spacetime tunnel?

"Why do you want to fight me?" Ning Chen asked Xiao Han.

The whole scene fell silent again. Lin Yi looked at Ning Chen in shock, and even Huo Jinglin looked at him.

After all, getting Ning Chen to speak proactively was harder than the sun rising from the west.

"I want to open the spacetime tunnel. I need to go over there to find something, but what I'm looking for, I... don't know."

Xiao Han's voice came through, and everyone around could hear his voice clearly.

Looking at the seemingly somewhat dejected Xiao Han, Ning Chen was a little surprised. He hadn't expected the other party to be so candid.

And the other party actually knew that this would open the spacetime tunnel?

Ning Chen glanced at Xiao Han, then turned around and entered the RV.

Seeing this, as Ning Chen's professional interpreter, Lin Yi quickly spoke up: "Xiao Han, you come in too, I have something to ask you."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Xiao Han didn't hesitate at all, and directly followed them into the RV, seemingly unafraid of any traps.

Xiao Han sat on the sofa, didn't look around, just lowered his head and looked at the coffee table.

"Click—"

The sound of a door opening rang out, and Gu Yanqi walked out from inside.

Looking at the suddenly extra person, Gu Yanqi's eyes were full of confusion.

Lin Yi quickly introduced Xiao Han: "Yanqi, this is Xiao Han, he's, he's... Ning Chen's enemy?"

Gu Yanqi:...?

The just-awakened Gu Yanqi was confused by Lin Yi's words. An enemy? An enemy was let into the RV to sit down?

At this moment, Gu Yanqi's eyes were blank, clearly not having processed what was going on.

Ning Chen walked over, sat across from Xiao Han, and looked at the other party.

"Do you have anything you want to say."

Xiao Han finally shifted his gaze. He looked at Ning Chen, pressed his lips together, then opened his mouth: "The person you met before was me, and also wasn't me."

The moment he spoke, Xiao Han's words were incomprehensible. Apart from Ning Chen, the other three people were all dumbfounded.

Gu Yanqi had finally managed to sober up, only to be sent back into the fog again.

"What do you mean by that?"
