Exorcist's Self-Cultivation

Chapter 139 138, Sister A's Confession

```

In the bathroom.

Du Wei shook the water droplets off his hands and turned to look at Alex beside him.

When the two of them had been stopping Victor's bleeding, they unavoidably got some blood on their hands.

Being a girl and having never encountered something like this before, Alex washed her hands over and over again, still feeling uncomfortable.

She frowned, wiped her hands dry with a paper towel, then hesitantly put her hands back under the faucet.

Seeing this, Du Wei gently said to her, "If you keep washing like this, your skin will be damaged."

Alex huffed and said, "But I feel very uncomfortable. Victor almost died in front of me. When you dealt with these things before, were those people the same?"

Du Wei dried his hands, and replied, "No, it was worse than this, most of them were dead."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Alex was stunned, and subconsciously responded, "Aren't you an exorcist? Weren't you able to save them?"

Du Wei paused, fell silent for a few seconds, then slowly said, "The Evil Spirits I dealt with are all far more terrible than the ones most exorcists encounter. Most of the time, I could barely protect myself."

Hearing this, Alex started to feel some heartache. She wiped her hands, and softly said, "I'm sorry, baby, I didn't mean to blame you. I was just thinking, if possible, I would like to help you like I did this time."

Du Wei was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head, "It's better for me to face these things alone."

Alex countered, "But exorcists have companions, right? And I think I can be of a lot of help to you, like with supplies, money, many things that you can't do, I can help you with. For example, I could use my connections to help you investigate information on Evil Spirits..."

Du Wei had no other choice but to say, "Give me some time to think about it, after all, it's very dangerous."

He still hadn't removed the mental barrier he set for himself, and even though he thought what Alex said made sense, he couldn't come up with a proper response.

Besides, he had quite a few things on his plate right now...

The Veda Sect, as well as the Bald Man he saw in the visions of death.

Also, the matter regarding the Joker Card needed to be addressed.

Alex knew that Du Wei was worried about her being in danger, so she had no choice but to obediently listen.

...

Soon after.

They arrived at the entrance of the Goliath Winery.

By that time, all the luxury sports cars parked around had been driven away, leaving only an Aston Martin One-77.

Of course... that was Alex's.

"Where's your Wing Leopard? Didn't you drive it?"

Alex was a bit puzzled; she remembered that car was a recent purchase by Du Wei. Could it be that he took a taxi because he was going to perform an exorcism?

Du Wei, a bit embarrassed, said, "I went to the Hill Psychiatric Hospital before, and unexpectedly, there was a big fire, which burned my car."

Coming back from a state of calm rationality, and recalling his previous ordeal, his tone was full of helplessness.

Du Wei frowned and said, "At the very least, I will consider this after resolving everything."

Alex, discontented, said, "What about now? I publicly acknowledged our relationship in front of others, yet you give me such a reply? You don't like me?"

Du Wei shook his head and said, "You're misunderstanding, I just have a lot of troublesome issues to deal with right now, and it's going to be dangerous. If we get together now, wouldn't you feel very insecure?"

"Mr. Du Wei, it seems you have some misconceptions about security?"

Alex slammed on the brakes, stopping at the roadside, unhappily unbuckled her seatbelt, and leaned directly on Du Wei.

Breathing became rapid.

The air seemed to heat up.

Du Wei was very uncomfortable with this sensation; Alex was the only woman he had ever been so intimate with.

He felt inexplicably irritable and even wanted to resist.

Reason told him that he should accept Alex, she truly was a good girl.

But his emotional side warned him that if he accepted her and one day he couldn't resolve the threat of Evil Spirit Transformation and lost his humanity, the first one to die would be Alex.

He fell silent...

Alex, undeterred, looked at the somewhat pale face of the man and tenderly said, "Could you look into my eyes? I like you, Mr. Du Wei."

"I can be sure that my feelings for you are pure, and have always been so from the start."

"The realistic considerations that other girls need to think about don't exist for me."

"My family is a large conglomerate. I have enough money to make us financially independent for this and the next lifetime."

"So what are you still worried about?"

"Please be with me!"

...

"Sigh..."

Du Wei took a breath and looked into Alex's eyes, clean and clear, yet somewhat fervent.

"You are the only woman who has been so kind to me in this life. I do like you too, but please give me some time. Once I resolve some issues, it will be more appropriate for us to be together officially."

"I know this might sound irresponsible, but it's the best choice. To me, you are more special than anyone else."

Upon hearing this, Alex's expression turned a bit disappointed, but her disappointment was greatly diminished after hearing him admit that he liked her.

But Alex was not a naive sweet girl; liking and trusting did not mean she would play the obedient girl.

Therefore, with a hint of cold laughter, she said, "You always assure me, but something small always seems to go wrong... so I think at this time I shouldn't listen to you, even though I know you mean well, but love does need a bit of temptation."

"Besides, I've always wanted to sleep with you."

What?

Du Wei then felt a warmth on his lips, an electrifying sensation that suddenly made his heart race.
