After seeing the emotion color, they all turned pink.

"Xu Chuan, do you have a hairdryer at home?"

Xu Wanxing had already washed her hair. She pushed open the bathroom door and was drying her hair with a towel.

A few strands of her long, black hair were damp and draped over her shoulders, with water droplets dripping from the ends, and a few strands clung to her flushed cheeks and neck.

Little Star's face, freshly washed, had a faint pinkish glow; her bright eyes were glistening with moisture; and her collar was slightly damp.

She subconsciously tucked her clothes behind her shoulder, revealing a slender, fair collarbone.

Xu Chuan had already cleared the table and plates and was sitting in a chair in the living room.

He looked up at Xu Wanxing for a while, his mind still filled with the messages she had sent to her parents on her phone.

"Xu Chuan..."

Xu Chuan just stared at him without saying a word.

Xu Wanxing's face, already flushed from hunching over while washing her hair and causing blood to rush back to the head, turned even redder.

Her eyes flickered left and right, and she unconsciously softened her movements as she dried her hair.

Xu Wanxing pursed her lips as she met Xu Chuan's gaze.

Xu Chuan, does he... want it...?

Well... shall we still go for a walk, or should we go back after the walk...?

But I want to hold his hand and take a walk first...

"You sit down, I'll blow it for you."

Xu Chuan pushed Xu Wanxing onto a chair, took a hairdryer from the room, plugged it in, and started drying her hair.

What are you thinking?

"Hmm...okay..."

Xu Wanxing sat down in the chair somewhat awkwardly, her hands neatly placed on her thighs, her posture upright.

Xu Chuan turned on the hairdryer, which was making a "whooshing" sound. With his other hand, he ran his fingers through Xiao Xingxing's wet, limp hair, gently stroking it as he blew on it.

Sometimes human emotions change inexplicably, especially for Xu Chuan, who can directly see the colors of emotions.

He had just noticed a large patch of yellow suddenly and inexplicably appear in Xu Wanxing's emotional outline.

But as he dried her hair, the yellow color quickly disappeared.

At this moment, it was also the first time Xu Chuan had seen such a pure and clear wild light blue color, which was gradually squeezed out from the emotional outline of the little stars.

These weren't supplied by him, but rather the pale blue color that Xu Wanxing was naturally producing herself.

It seems that Little Star feels very comfortable when he pats her head.

that……

"Xiao Xu."

"Um?"

"Please don't die, okay?" Xu Chuan finally said.

Although his voice was softened by the whirring of the hairdryer, it was incredibly sincere.

Xu Wanxing's shoulders twitched. Xu Chuan couldn't see her expression, but he could see her emotions.

Her remaining half of black was still putting up a stubborn resistance, while the other half of normal colored emotion was already fully capable of competing with it, and the entire emotional outline was fluctuating violently.

"I was at No. 3 Middle School this afternoon..."

Since Xu Wanxing remained silent, Xu Chuan continued speaking.

"Actually, apart from those who bully you, there are many people who like you and care about you. Don't let those bad guys affect your mood..."

Xu Wanxing gently shook her head, her voice muffled and nasal: "I'm ignoring them... I'm actually scared... Many of them said..."

The little star looks like it's about to cry again, and its words are becoming somewhat incoherent.

"Xu Chuan, I'm so unlucky... I hope you can be happier..." Xu Wanxing's voice was so soft it was almost inaudible.

"If you die... I will be very sad."

Xu Chuan maintained his gentle touch, silently blow-drying her hair, and repeated the process once more.

"I'm very sad."

Upon hearing this, Xu Wanxing choked up and hunched her head. She turned her back, raised her arm, and wiped her eyes.

sorry……

I'm so sorry...

"I once read a book that contained a very interesting concept called the Warm Ocean Theory."

Xu Chuan gently stroked Xu Wanxing's hair, blowing on it as he told her a story.

"He said that if the Pacific Ocean is cold and empty, and there are only two or three fish in it, then they will never meet in their lifetime..."

"But, in this situation, if the two fish actually do meet, that might prove two things..."

"First, that 'if' is wrong. There aren't just two or three fish in the Pacific Ocean, but many, many fish..."

"second……"

Xu Chuan paused for a moment, then continued, "Even if this ocean is truly cold and desolate, at least these two fish that met are very lucky."

The loud whirring of the hairdryer successfully masked Xu Wanxing's choked sobs.

This seemed to give her a great sense of security. She raised her hands to cover her face, her shoulders and delicate back trembling slightly.

"Xu Chuan, are we... are we those two fish...?" Xu Wanxing said, her voice choked with emotion.

"Yes, we met!"

Xu Chuan gently stroked her hair and then said.

"So it proves that we're both incredibly lucky; neither of us is unlucky."

"Even if... even if we're unlucky... it proves that there are many good fish like Xu Chuan and me in this world..." Xu Wanxing said, turning her face to the side, her little face covered in tears again.

"Hahaha……"

Xu Wanxing choked back tears as she thought seriously, recalling her description of herself and Xu Chuan: "good fish."

He successfully made Xu Chuan laugh, and he let down a strand of wet hair to wipe Xu Wanxing's face.

No wonder he's a top student at No. 3 High School; he understands things instantly.

"Yes, whatever it is, it's all good, this world."

Xu Chuan continued,

"So, don't die!"

At the very moment Xu Chuan finished speaking,

The dark-skinned guy—no, the dark-skinned younger brother—that Xu Wanxing was describing began to shrink rapidly.

Meanwhile, the remaining colorful emotions, as if in retaliation, frantically squeezed the black space to exist...

The once-genius black has now become a precious object despised by all emotions!

However, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Despite losing several territories to the invaders, Black still tenaciously defended its last third of territory.

Xu Chuan was about to give his victory speech when he opened his squinting eyes and saw...

Blackie, you're not dead!

Holy crap! It's so damn tough!

Speaking of his mother, Xu Chuan suddenly remembered that Xu Wanxing's mother's problems still deeply stung her; her family issues remained, and in fact, that was the root cause.

Those scoundrels from No. 3 Middle School were probably just the direct cause or the trigger.

But... let's take it slow. Now that the black color has been compressed so much, Little Star probably won't make Zisha anymore...

Moreover, from the very beginning, Xu Chuan has not used any superpowers, relying entirely on his silver tongue.

Conquering Little Star with just his mouth—that feeling was quite satisfying…

Turns out I'm not just some weakling who only knows superpowers after all~

Seeing that the outlines of the little stars in front of him had finally turned into beautiful and larger colors, Xu Chuan hummed happily.

She hummed softly as she dried Little Star's hair, feeling happy and carefree.

It was at this moment that he suddenly heard someone call his name, as if he were hallucinating.

"Xu Chuan".

Xu Wanxing, sitting in the chair in front of her, also paused for a moment. She tilted her head to the left and right, as if she had also heard something.

"Xu Chuan".

Another sound.

Xu Chuan frowned in confusion, turned off the buzzing hair dryer, and the whole world instantly fell silent.

"Chuan Chuan! What are you doing inside?"

A familiar voice came from outside the door, followed by a series of loud bangs on the door.

"What was that noise? It's so noisy! Open the door!"

"Hey, stop taking pictures. It's so late, don't disturb the neighbors. Old Zhang also made a key for me, let me move aside, let me open it..."

Another familiar male voice rang out.

Xu Chuan held a hairdryer in one hand and stroked Xu Wanxing's hair with the other. He turned his head to look at the door and stared blankly for two seconds.

"Mom?"
