Chapter 355: Brother, there you are! Come and try the cookies I made!

Fu Hua poked her head inside and asked, "Is Fu Shi here with you?"

"Old antique, what's up?" Before Fu Lin could reply, a shrunken Fu Shi popped out from behind the door, stretched out her arms for Fu Hua to hug her, and then made a face at Fu Lin.

Seeing that Fu Shi was safe, Fu Hua finally let out a breath of relief and tightly hugged her, then told Fu Lin about everyone fainting in the dormitory and asked, "Kiana and the others are lying motionless on the ground, and no matter how we call them, they won't wake up. They're foaming at the mouth. Fu Lin, do you know what happened last night?"

"I... I'm not really sure either." Fu Lin stammered, his hands nervously rubbing his clothes, clearly guilty.

"Forget it, just come with me first. This concerns lives. Heal them with your powers first." With that, Fu Hua impatiently pulled Fu Lin by the hand and rushed toward their dormitory...

--------------------------

On the towering, cloud-shrouded Mount Taixuan, Fu Lin wandered alone in silence.

His gaze was firmly locked onto the figure of Kiana☆ not far ahead, his eyes revealing endless complex emotions.

Looking at Kiana☆'s back, she appeared lonely yet exceptionally determined, her long white hair dancing in the wind, as if merging with the mysterious heavens and earth.

Fu Lin stared at her intently, a nameless emotion surging in his heart.

"Sigh～" As time passed, Fu Lin's thoughts gradually drifted. He recalled the not-so-friendly bits and pieces between him and Kiana☆, their shared moments flashing before his eyes like scenes from a movie.

However, the current situation left Fu Lin feeling troubled and helpless.

Perhaps it was fate's prank, or the arrangement of destiny, that brought Fu Lin and Kiana☆ to this point.

Their relationship had become subtle; she trusted him, yet he harbored doubts about her; she depended on him, yet he distanced himself from her.

These entangled and complex emotions plunged Fu Lin into deep contemplation.

He couldn't help but start to doubt whether he truly understood Kiana☆, and what her true thoughts deep down were.

During the long wandering, Fu Lin tried to find answers from Kiana☆'s silhouette, but everything remained blurred.

Finally, Fu Lin decided to stop hesitating. His gaze firm, he took a step toward Kiana☆, hoping to be honest with her and unravel the mysteries in their hearts.

No matter what the future held, he was willing to face it bravely, because he knew only in this way could they find their answers.

Kiana☆, hearing the approaching footsteps behind her, slowly turned around, her blue eyes lifting slightly to meet Fu Lin walking toward her.

Kiana☆ asked softly, "Is there something you need?"

However, the moment their eyes met, Fu Lin suddenly became a little flustered.

He instinctively touched his nose, but the words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat, and he couldn't express himself smoothly for a moment.

After a brief silence, Fu Lin took out a pure white cloak from behind and gently handed it to Kiana☆, kindly reminding her, "It's windy and cold at the mountain top. You must take good care of your health to avoid catching a chill, which would not be good for the baby in your womb..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Lin couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed — was this really what he wanted to say?

Moreover, as the Herrscher of the End, how could Kiana☆ be easily affected by a mere chill?

Thinking of this, the corner of Fu Lin's mouth twitched, and he silently cursed himself, wondering what nonsense he was babbling.

However, at that moment, Kiana☆ smiled faintly and softly replied, "Mm."

Then, she reached out her hand, gently taking the cloak Fu Lin offered and draped it over her shoulders.

She looked up at Fu Lin and asked, "Brother, you've been pacing back and forth for a while now. Is something troubling you?"

"No..." Fu Lin instinctively wanted to deny it, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back down.

He didn't dare meet Kiana☆'s purple, star-like eyes, and a trace of guilt welled up inside him.

Thus, he hurriedly changed the subject, stammering, "Uh, was it that obvious?"

Fu Lin shook his head helplessly, then clenched his teeth tightly, as if he had made a huge decision, and asked,

"It's actually nothing major, just that Fu Lin — I don't know why — always tries to distance himself from you and run away from you..."

"So I was curious, have you ever regretted coming to this world so unfamiliar and lonely to you..."

Hearing this, Kiana☆ slowly turned around, putting her hands behind her back and shrinking into the large cloak, her face showing a faint, indifferent expression as she answered softly, "Of course not."

Then, raising her head to watch the birds flying freely in the sky, she said, "As for Fu Lin's attitude, I never took it to heart. Maybe it's because I went too far, restricting his freedom. But I simply couldn't suppress the joy and impulsiveness inside me, fearing that he would be taken away by some other woman and abandon me."

She paused slightly, then continued, "As for family, in fact, I have been trying every possible way to find a method to connect the two worlds."

"However, judging from the current situation, success still seems a long way off. Now that I'm carrying Fu Lin's baby, I'm afraid I'll have to put that matter aside for now."

Fu Lin quietly listened behind her, looking at Kiana☆ behaving normally, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

'Looks like Kiana☆ is still the same Kiana☆, just yandere only toward me... I really have to hand it to her!'

"Brother, there you are! Come and try the cookies I made!" Sirin's voice floated over from a distance.

Fu Lin turned his head and saw Sirin holding a plate, running over with a bright smile, while Bella followed closely behind, biting her handkerchief and staring at Fu Lin with a face full of grievance.
