A person who isn't angry won't say they aren't angry...

Dia scratched his head and decisively decided to face his mistake head-on:

"I'm sorry, I did hear some of it, but I stopped listening after Sherlock asked that question."

Hopefully, this answer will make her feel better.

"..."

Qiduo sighed, and her whole demeanor suddenly softened, as if ice had melted.

He's already said that, what else can she do?

Moreover, one thing at a time, the fact that she was able to see Sherlock today ultimately made her very happy.

This incident was also thanks to Dia's betrayal.

Qi Duo turned her face away and whispered:

"Thank you... for helping me find my father..."

"No need to thank me, as I said, it's my wish to help you."

Dia smiled but didn't say anything more.

After a brief period of calm.

"I like you, that's my answer."

"what?"

Dia was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening:

"I……"

"Don't speak yet."

Qiduo lowered her head, and through her cascading green hair, one could vaguely see her bright red earlobes.

She murmured:

"I don't expect you to respond; I just said what I wanted to say."

"It's difficult for you to respond now... Mumu Ze, and maybe even Pok, are all waiting for you, right?"

"..."

Dia was speechless.

Because he never hid it.

"It's okay, I'll wait for you."

Qiduo smiled and raised her head, her delicate and beautiful face radiating a captivating charm.

"This is something I have to do myself, it has nothing to do with you."

"No matter how long it takes, I will wait."

"To put it poetically, I am willing to offer all the piety of an atheist and wait for your answer."

"Waiting for the answer that has already been determined."

A smile played on her lips, and her emerald-like eyes seemed to sparkle. Her petite figure exuded a confident and poised demeanor.

"..."

That confidence seemed to infect Dia, making him whisper:

"I didn't hear what you just said clearly, could you say it again?"

"...Say it again?"

Qi Duo's carefully cultivated emotions were instantly pulled back to reality. Unable to hold back any longer, she couldn't help but reveal her deadpan eyes as she stared at this rebellious disciple and asked in a cold voice.

"No, I mean I'm honored."

Diya changed her tune quite naturally and laughed:

"I will find a way, a way that satisfies both sides, and it won't keep you waiting long."

Qi Duo frowned slightly upon hearing this.

She didn't understand what Dia was saying.

He always has his own ideas, but in this kind of situation, how can one achieve the best of both worlds?

Of course, Qiduo knew that if she asked Dia directly, she would undoubtedly only get the same perfunctory answer as before.

That's just his style.

Normally, Qi Duo wouldn't care, since Dia would eventually tell her everything anyway, so why worry about it now?

But at this moment, she felt a growing impatience and could no longer tolerate the vagueness of the explanation.

"I don't know what you mean by 'the best of both worlds,' but Dia, I hope you understand one thing—"

"There is absolutely no such thing as a perfect ending in this world. The appearance of anything beautiful will inevitably be accompanied by the destruction of something else. This is the truth."

"You only have one chance to choose. Once you choose this, you can't choose that again, understand?"

Dia stopped and looked directly at the somewhat agitated Qiduo.

His teacher could switch between gentleness and impatience so quickly, changing his expression faster than turning the pages of a book. Could that be considered a cute trait?

However, these two seemingly diametrically opposed personalities share a common trait: absolute frankness and outspokenness.

Her reminder at this moment is undoubtedly her true inner thought and her understanding of the world.

But this was not Dia's perception.

He faced Qiduo and said in a tone that seemed gentle yet firm:

"I'll also tell you a truth—if a perfect ending doesn't exist in this world, then I'll change this world."

"I will make everything revolve around me!"

"..."

Qi Duo was somewhat speechless.

Diya's domineering and assertive nature once again challenged her worldview, but she subconsciously felt that the other party was truly capable of doing it.

Her decades of rational thinking proved utterly ineffective in the face of her subconscious trust in Diya.

Simply put, he said one thing but his body betrayed him and sided with Dia.

After all, since she brought Dia into the world of Nen users, the miracles that have occurred in this student have already surpassed all previous knowledge and records.

He said he wanted to change the world, and maybe he really could.

But why does it sound so unpleasant?

Kido said in a huff:

"You're saying things like that again, treating everyone like fools. That's so arrogant, and... you even treat me like that!"

She glared at Dia and said forcefully:

"I don't care how you treat others, but you can't treat me the same way you treat others!"

"I don't want your arrogance, I want you to bow down to me!"

Her voice echoed in the empty street, as if fate was on her side.

It is Keido's privilege to give orders to Dia!

Her idea wasn't wrong.

After all, their styles are quite different: one is assertive and straightforward, while the other is domineering and tyrannical. If they don't tolerate each other's habits, problems are bound to arise sooner or later.

Dia thought about it carefully, looked at the teacher who was now almost within reach, and nodded decisively, saying:

"it is good."

And so, under her questioning gaze,

He suddenly bent down and kissed her lips.

Chapter 432 Time Between Two People × Ruby's Informing

What lies at the end of the universe?

Ancient scholars and philosophers believed that it was a barren land, in the center of which were countless turtles representing time and space stacked on top of each other, and the universe was on top of the turtles.

The universe is so vast that all profound thoughts and sincere feelings seem so insignificant on such an immeasurable scale.

But I am still alive, living on this planet in a way that seems both meaningful and meaningless.

So how do we define the meaning of life?

Eating, drinking tea, having long phone conversations with your mother, torturing stupid graduate students, doing research and winning some prestigious awards, and finally falling in love with your students, getting married, and having a few lovely children—who doesn't live their life like this?

Right, that's what a person's life is like.

From a scientific perspective, doesn't the desire to reproduce account for half of human instincts?

My tongue started moving involuntarily.

What is that electric shock-like sensation that comes from the tip of the tongue?

Does he have a high-voltage wire in his mouth?

It's like a short circuit between the positive and negative terminals of a power source, bursting into sparks and a head full of stars.

Since it's a short circuit, there's bound to be a huge amount of heat generated when the current passes through the resistance of the head. That's probably where that burning sensation on the face comes from.

No, no, that's not right.

From a physical or biological perspective, twisting two tongues together like a pretzel does not generate any electrical energy.

Otherwise, wouldn't the uncle selling cold pig tongues at the university gate be a hidden power tycoon?
