Shikong never tells lies or deceitful words. If he says he believes, he believes.
But why does Shikong believe in him, Shen Yue? Based on Shikong's own magical powers? Or because he sees Shen Yue as a good person deep down?
But honestly, Shen Yue himself didn't even know if he was good or bad!
Shen Yue felt subtly troubled by Shikong's casual remarks.
He never intended to get caught up in such things, but most of the time, his mind felt like a self-starting motor that ran beyond his control.
Only when he was with Hai Mingzhu, he felt a rare tranquility - where he would think of nothing.
Sometimes, not thinking about anything was indeed a rare luxury for him.
That's why he purposefully retained Hai Mingzhu when Jin Xin considered her unsuitable for their operations.
Jin Xin evidently respected his intuition and thus allowed Hai Mingzhu to join Jin Tang Security.
"Amitābha Buddha." Shikong murmured softly.
