Chapter 1287: Casual
Nana’s mischievous smile and gaze softened. Her voice became caring and authoritative like an elderly person addressing a child. “You’ve led a life of ignorance, but that’s your biggest blessing. It’s time. The three of you have played your games. You won this time. Come back.”
Nainai trembled. She couldn’t stop herself from walking forward.
“Don’t go!” Zhang Wei shouted, grabbing Nainai. “Don’t listen to her, Nainai! This is a trap! She’s lying to you!”
Nainai looked at Zhang Wei with tears running down her face. “So, so you were right. This...my fate lacks sovereignty...”
“I was joking!” Zhang Wei seized her shoulders. “Be confident, Nainai! You’re the empress! You’re one of us! One of the Nine Scions!”
“Zhang Wei.” Nainai shook her head with anguish. “Although... although you always teased me, I’m happy. I always think it would be great if I could blend in like you... But I... will never get to do that now.”
Zhang Wei Shook violently. Her words felt like a spear through his chest, pinning him to the ground.
Nainai walked around Zhang Wei and went up to Gao Yang. He looked at her with a calm, serious gaze. He found the revelation difficult to accept, but he had to.
“It’s okay, Nainai.” He extended a hand. “Fate has its plan.”
“Captain.” Nainai took his hand. “Thank you.”
Then they had no other words for each other.
