Seeing Ye Yuqiao's serious expression while asking this question, Chen Hao suddenly widened his eyes. After thinking for a while, Chen Hao let out a snort of laughter, then pulled Ye Yuqiao into his arms and smilingly asked, "If my mom were still alive, would you ask me who I would save if you and my mom both fell into the water?"
Ye Yuqiao frowned slightly, her face still serious as she waited for Chen Hao's answer.
Chen Hao's expression darkened, and after a sigh, he said, "That hypothesis is simply not valid. But if you insist on an answer from me, I…"
"I was just asking casually," Ye Yuqiao interrupted before Chen Hao could finish. Her brows relaxed a little as she murmured softly, "I didn't say you had to answer."
Chen Hao made a face at Ye Yuqiao, then raised his head and rubbed his somewhat weary cheeks, saying, "I have to go deal with those old guys now, and after that, I'll have to face the Soul Devouring Beast."
