Chapter 1011: Chapter 572: Cosmic Sea of Suffering_2
Hearing Logan’s praise, Snow Wood couldn’t help but feel a bitter taste in her heart.
Is that all?
Just feeling happy for others, doesn’t he have any other thoughts, not even a bit of jealousy?
Snow Wood seriously observed him for a moment, and finally had to let out a weary sigh, she had to admit, there were truly no such feelings.
Seeing how calm and rational this person was, she wasn’t very pleased.
So much so that the emotions she’d been suppressing for so long could no longer be contained and spilled out in this moment.
“What about you? Young Master Logan, do you see me as the woman of your dreams like other men do?”
The question was quite direct, and with each word, she felt embarrassed.
But she didn’t abandon the thought, as if she had to say it no matter what.
Logan was indeed caught off guard when he heard this, taking a moment to react.
“What?”
He looked at her, just as she was looking at him, their gazes collided.
Snow Wood bit her lower lip with her pearly white teeth, leaving a tiny mark that looked unspeakably alluring and bewitching.
She lowered her eyes, seemingly embarrassed, yet with a glimmer of hope.
“Logan, I’m not joking, I want to know, what are your thoughts?”
“Truth be told, my heart is pleased with you.”
She closed her eyes, gathering her courage, and finally voiced her confession.
After speaking, her heart pounded like a drum, almost jumping to her throat.
Snow Wood didn’t know where she found the courage to make this confession.
After finishing, the tension she felt was indescribable.
She’s always been the one pursued by others; Great Goddess Wood never bowed to anyone, much less actively pursued any man.
Logan was the only one, and someone she was willing to pursue with all her heart.
From the earlier conversation, she already understood the source of her unhappiness.
She was also clear about her feelings for him, and naturally understood why she felt such regret.
Should she continue to deceive herself, waiting until Logan marries someone else? Could she really endure witnessing such a scene?
Snow Wood thought carefully for a moment, then furrowed her brows deeply.
She realized, no, she couldn’t bear it, no matter what.
So, she simply cast aside all pride, deciding to make the first move.
If she could marry the man she loved, what did face matter?
Who bows first to whom, who pursues whom, does it really matter?
After speaking, Snow Wood turned her head away, not daring to look at Logan.
Heaven knows how nervous she was at that moment, her hands under her sleeves clenched tightly, her fingernails digging into her flesh, but even that couldn’t calm her nerves.
After a while, she took a deep breath and looked again at Logan, who was silent beside her.
“Logan, so much time has passed, shouldn’t you give me an answer?”
She didn’t understand, feeling a vague sense of injustice as she spoke.
So much time had passed, why had Logan still not uttered a word?
But actually, Logan hadn’t quite recovered himself, he was also baffled.
He’d never expected to receive a confession, especially from Snow Wood.

He asked himself, there wasn’t much interaction between him and Snow Wood, and even if there was, he had always treated her politely.
He just didn’t expect that she would fall for him, let alone confess it to his face.
Because he didn’t know how to respond, that’s why he still hadn’t replied.
After a while, and after much contemplation, he sighed.
“Miss Wood, the matter you mentioned, I have already given it careful thought.”
At this, Snow Wood’s entire body stiffened, she didn’t dare to look at him, yet she stole glances, hoping to hear his answer from his own lips.
“Then, what is your answer? Tell me, let’s end this quickly.”
“I’m sorry.”
Those two softly sighed words already represented the entire answer.
At that moment, Snow Wood’s heart sank, never having felt so desolate or heart-wrenched; it was as if her heart had been pricked by a needle, the discomfort was indescribable, as was the irritation it caused.
“Why, Logan, in what way am I not good enough for you?”
Under normal circumstances, according to her nature, she should have parted ways gracefully, with dignity intact.
At any rate, she shouldn’t have questioned Logan, let alone with a hint of bitterness in her voice as if she were a jilted woman secluded in deep resentment.
Just thinking of this description made Snow Wood’s face flush a bit.
She realized that whenever it came to Fem Lington, she just didn’t seem like herself.
Although she was annoyed by this, she couldn’t think of a way to change it.
“Sorry, I am devoted to my pursuit of the Tao and currently have no thoughts of romantic love.”
“Then, I can also accompany you, until the day you come to your senses…”
If it was for this reason, she could step back, actually, it wasn’t as if she couldn’t wait a little longer, endure a little longer.
But Logan still shook his head.
“Sorry, Miss Wood, besides that, I also have no romantic feelings for you, no other thoughts, so before I can promise you anything, I hope you will stop waiting for me.”
If his previous words left her with some dignity, what followed ruthlessly tore the truth wide open.
Upon hearing the latter statement, Snow Wood’s smile stiffened.
Logan felt awkward immediately after saying it and kept his head down, not daring to look at her.
But Snow Wood didn’t blame him, she just sighed deeply.
“Alright, romantic feelings can’t be forced, especially not between you and me.”
“I’m not the kind of person who likes to impose on others, Young Master Logan, since you have no intentions towards me, I will naturally put away my feelings.”
She appeared carefree, but in reality, her heart was bleeding.
To let go of someone she liked at first glance, someone she took the initiative to like, how could she give up so easily?
But clinging was not her style, and she couldn’t bring herself to do such a thing.
Thus, no matter how bad her mood was, no matter how much her heart bled,
she still had to maintain her dignity and pretend to be calm on the surface.
Seeing Snow Wood like this, Logan actually felt a bit uncomfortable inside.
But in the end, he opened his mouth and still said nothing.
It was only after the person in front of him calmed down a bit that he said something comforting.
“Miss Wood, you truly are a good person, and in the future, you are certain to meet someone better, someone even better than me.”
His attempt at consolation only caused Snow Wood’s eyes to redden.
“I am a good person, but I’m still not good enough for you, isn’t it? Still not able to earn your affection, is that it?”
Her consecutive questions stunned Logan, leaving him unsure of what to say.
“Uh, that’s not what I meant…”
Before he could explain anything, Snow Wood already waved her hand to interrupt him.
“Forget it, you don’t need to say more, I understand, don’t worry, I’m not that sort of indecent woman, and I won’t cling to you.”
She turned away, trying her best to hide her desolation, to conceal her sadness.
The atmosphere between them became somewhat tense, and it grew heavier.
Logan felt he had wounded Snow Wood and didn’t know how to make amends.
But before he could do much to make it right, the person in front of him had already come to terms with her regret.
“Ah, never mind, actually, when I think about it, it was just a budding feeling. If I had never gotten your response, I might have become obsessed, but now that I’ve gotten your answer, I have no more regrets. Whether or not things work out between us, we’re still friends, right?”
She laughed freely, not the forced cheerfulness from before, but a true sense of letting go.
Logan saw this and couldn’t help but crack a smile too.
“Yes, no matter what, we are friends.”
“Good, I apologize for any trouble I’ve caused you before. I will sort out my feelings and then come to terms with everything.”
Both exchanged smiles.
Afterward, they agreed to meet in the countryside, drink wine, and chat. Snow Wood would also talk about some childhood memories as Logan listened intently.
As they talked, Logan suddenly became alert, his expression serious.
“I sense the aura of the Demon Race.”
As soon as he said this, Snow Wood also became instantly vigilant.
“Where, Lord Logan, I don’t think I’m as sensitive as you; I haven’t noticed it?”
“It’s okay, Miss Wood, this place is too dangerous. You should head back first; I’ll go and investigate.”
