"Why are you here too?" Yue Ran opened her mouth and looked disbelievingly at the man downstairs, who was staring up at her.

    "What is wrong?" Fu Chen asked. "Does Ran Ran not welcome me here?"

    "No, that was not it," Yue Ran said as she quickly shook her head before fully walking down the stairs. "I just did not expect to see you again."

    "Now that you have seen me, what is with Ran Ran''s reaction?" Fu Chen asked with a teasing tone. There was a gentle arc at the ends of his lips as he looked at the girl now standing in front of him.

    "Of course, I must look and feel happy," Yue Ran said with bent eyes and lips.

    While Yue Ran and Fu Chen were reminiscing about the time when they knew each other very happily, Gu Si, who was inside the kitchen and heard Yue Ran''s happy voice from the outside, quickened his speed to walk out, especially after he had heard of the happy conversation between the two.

    "Ran Ran, come over to eat," Gu Si called out, interrupting Yue Ran and Fu Chen''s harmonious conversation.

    "Okay, I am coming." Yue Ran turned her head and replied to Gu Si. She then shifted her attention to Fu Chen and said, "Then, I will go ahead first."

    Yue Ran waved her hand and walked away at a pleasant pace, leaving Fu Chen to stare at her back a little in a daze.

    …

    Qi Qian: "What did you just say? I need to find a white jade dragon disc? Why, and for what?"

    Salvation System: "Yes, you need to find it. To find the white jade dragon disk and activate it will be the last task from the system. This white jade dragon disk has the effect of purification, and if activated, then all the mutated things in the world could be brought back to normal."

    Qi Qian: "There is this kind of good thing? Then why did you not mention it to me in the first place? The world could have already been saved much earlier then!"

    Salvation System: "There is no way to tell this kind of thing in the first place. There are levels between tasks that need to be unlocked first before reaching the final one, like in a game. And according to your previous strength and ability, it is absolutely impossible for you to activate the white jade dragon disk. Only when the previous system tasks were completed could you increase your supernatural abilities, and then could the final task be reached."

    Qi Qian never thought that it would be like this. So all the system tasks she did before were to lead her to the last point. After thinking for a while, she spoke again with a calm tone.

    Qi Qian: "Then, where is the location of this white jade dragon disk?"

    Salvation System: "The white jade dragon disk is located in the Dawn Barrier Base, a hidden base in City Y. And in order to activate the white jade dragon disk, it needs the full supernatural abilities of you and Gu Si."

    Qi Qian widened her eyes in surprise.

    Qi Qian: "Gu Si and my full supernatural abilities?"

    To sacrifice her supernatural abilities for a safe and peaceful world. It was a good bargain!

    But just thinking about that certain man who was always indifferent and cold, Qi Qian already felt an incoming headache in her head. This man is so troublesome.

    Even if Gu Si compromised, in the end, to take in more than twenty people inside the castle, for which most of the credit goes to Yue Ran, how could Gu Si want to voluntarily lose all his supernatural abilities to save the world and save those people that he does not care about?

    Salvation System: "Qian Qian, we should at least try to persuade Gu Si first, and maybe it would be possible?"

    Qi Qian: "Okay, at present, we can only try it this way."

    …

    "Heh," Gu Si sneered, and he looked down at Qi Qian condescendingly in front of him. "Miss Qi is really interesting. To save the world? Why do you think that I want to save the world? Besides, why should I help you at all?"

    "Gu Si, do you know how many people, where you and I, or us, cannot see them, are now suffering the pain of family separation, abandonment, torture, starvation, and despair?" Qi Qian asked the indifferent man in front of her with eyes that burned with the righteous flames of justice. "Do you know just how many people died at the hands of those monsters? Do you really not have the slightest compassion for them at all?"

    Gu Si stared in boredom at the girl in front of him and simply said a cold-hearted, "No."

    Gu Si easily threw this one word and directly passed by Qi Qian by walking around her without a care in the world.

    To be honest, he really has no idea or compassion for saving people or the world. Moreover, why should he waste his time on this kind of useless thing when he might as well find more time to hug his soft and cute little girlfriend? Even this short conversation with Qi Qian was a waste of his time.

    But the female protagonist is still the female protagonist after all. And even if there is a stumble or a change in the plan, she will never give up easily. After all, this was the essence of every female protagonist: stubbornness.

    Instead of going to Gu Si and finding time to persuade him more, Qi Qian decided to go to Yue Ran.

    From the looks of the previous incident, Qi Qian fully understood that it was better to seek Yue Ran''s help than Gu Si''s. As long as Yue Ran agreed, Gu Si would instantly follow Yue Ran''s decision blindly.

    …

    "Qian Qian, please sit down," Yue Ran said as she took Qi Qian''s hand and led her into the room to the sofa. Yue Ran placed two hands on Qi Qian''s shoulders and pressed her down to the seat. "Wait a minute; I will go and get you a cup of tea."

    Qi Qian looked at the beautiful girl dressed in a pure white short bubble-sleeve dress with delicate decorative laces. She could not help but think that Yue Ran really did look even more beautiful and prosperous than before. Her every move carries an innocent girl''s coquettishness and naivety, with the addition of an unintentional charm that was evoked from inside her bones.

    For a moment, Qi Qian''s thoughts went dark.

    Yue Ran was just a waste who did not know how to do anything. But she could still live so comfortably, even in this apocalypse. Yet she, Qi Qian, had to wander between life and death every single day.

    Her wandering thoughts were brought back to reality by Yue Ran''s soft and pleasant voice.

    "Here, Qian Qian," Yue Ran said.

    Qi Qian instantly came back to her senses, and she looked at the steaming cup of tea in front of her and shortly smiled at Yue Ran, who had now seated herself on the sofa across from her. Sear?h the n??el Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    "Thank you," Qi Qian said.

    "This is Bohea tea," Yue Ran said, introducing the cup of tea in a gentle voice to Qi Qian. "This black tea blend imparts a light, smoky flavor with hints of orange and cinnamon. It tastes bitter and sweet, with an endless aftertaste. Give it a try, Qian Qian."

    "It smells good," Qi Qian said simply.

    Although Qi Qian had responded to Yue Ran with a compliment, she did not make any movement to hold the tea cup or even try to take a sip of the steaming Bohea tea. She just kept tapping the table with the tip of her finger.

    Tap. Tap. Tap.

    "Why did Qian Qian come to find me today?" Yue Ran asked. "What is the matter?"

    "Hmm, about that..." Qi Qian started, and her words trailed off at the end. Her tone was hesitant. In the end, her eyes flashed with determination before she continued by stating her purpose for finding Yue Ran today.

    Although she disliked Yue Ran very much, she really felt like she could believe in her.

    Yue Ran: What a big trust in me! Even I do not believe in myself. After all, I am full of lies.

    Unexpectedly, after hearing Qi Qian''s words about saving the world with the need to sacrifice her own and Gu Si''s supernatural abilities, Yue Ran smiled softly and beautifully, but the words that spat out of her mouth made Qi Qian feel unbelievable.

    "Oh, I see," Yue Ran said as she nodded lightly and understandingly. "But what does this have anything to do with me?"

    "What… you…" Qi Qian''s eyes widened in disbelief.

    "I am doing just fine now, and am I not living safely and happily?" Yue Ran asked gently. "So, what does saving the world have to do with me, then?"

    Not only did Yue Ran''s words shock Qi Qian, but the girl''s words also successfully shocked the Salvation System.

    The Salvation System had never once imagined that the girl in front of Qi Qian would actually have this kind of attitude towards such a noble deed!

    "But all mutant creatures needed to be eliminated from the earth so that the entire human race and the planet itself could survive and thrive!" Qi Qian tried to reason with Yue Ran. "The human race and the world need this! The mutant creatures needed to be purified!"
