Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 2204

"Our Father who is in Heaven, hallowed be your name ..." After praying for quite some time, she noticed that there seemed to be no movements around her. Hence, Baby Zetty bravely opened one eye. Finn was crossing his arms on his chest. He could not help but laugh when he looked at her old face as she behaved so childishly. At the same time, he also found her charming.

"You managed to trek the mountains and come to Sacred Land, was it from praying along the way?" Finn said while smiling.

Baby Zetty's whole body froze upon hearing Finn's voice behind her.

After a short while, Baby Zetty turned her head slowly and saw Finn looking at her with a mischievous smile. The pair of beautiful eyes was no longer as cold as before.

For a moment there, Baby Zetty was about to escape again. However, when she got up and walked two steps forward, she turned back around again.

Finn asked her curiously, "Why aren't you escaping?"

Baby Zetty asked him, "Have you been following me all this time?"

Finn sighed and said, "Alas, I'm a big old idler. I do nothing all day, so what else can I do if not chase after my wife?" 1

Baby Zetty's ears were turning red from embarrassment. She said, "What are you talking about? Who said anything about being your wife? Can ... Can't you see our age difference?"

Finn leaned his face closer and asked, "So you dislike me now because I'm old?"

Baby Zetty simply chose not to speak since that could make things worse. She merely glared at him.

Finn smiled playfully and said, "So you're not despising me for being old? Perhaps you already have someone else in your heart?"

Baby Zetty said, "I have one foot in the grave now. Why on earth would I want to harm anyone else? If you say any more nonsense, I'll start ignoring you."

Finn stopped being unruly and asked seriously, "Then how did you come to know Gale?"

His voice was filled with jealousy.

Baby Zetty did not expect Finn to have such a childish side to him and teased, "How old are you? Why are you so bothered about a kid? How shameful."

"A kid?" Finn did not know whether to laugh or cry.

"Gale's age is similar to yours. How is he a kid?"

Baby Zetty teased, "In your heart, aren't I always the

kid who never grows up?"

Finn embarrassedly rubbed on his nose and smiled bashfully while saying, "I didn't know much about philosophy back then. I've studied more about it in the past few years. My knowledge has greatly improved now."

Baby Zetty was startled. "What does this have to do with philosophy?"

Finn held Baby Zetty's shoulder with one hand and said, "Listen to my analysis. In the past, I always thought that you'd never grow up, so I didn't want to do anything to harm you. But that kind of thinking was wrong. I was looking at the problem from a static point of view. This was the typical doctrine that external reality is a product of consciousness. Now that I've discovered that you're aging much faster than me, I had an epiphany that things are constantly developing. If we're to live every day in the present, that's the true wisdom."

After saying this, Finn looked at Baby Zetty proudly and boasted, "Don't you think I'm right?"

Baby Zetty was at a loss for words.

She had never been an eloquent person, and her personality was simple and somewhat unsophisticated.

Ultimately, Baby Zetty merely sighed and said, "You're getting glibber and glibber."

Finn held her hand in his palm and placed it on his heart, saying earnestly, "I'm not glib. I merely want to compensate you for all those sweet words that I previously didn't have a chance to tell you. Don't try to escape now, Baby Zetty. We'll find a way to cure your disease together."

Baby Zetty kept thinking about how old and ugly she was. Standing by Finn's side made them such an incompatible pair. Hence, she still resisted, saying," I'm unsuitable for you..."

Baby Zetty said, "I'm not as eloquent as you are, and I can't mutter out such bombastic words. But you must already know what my thoughts are, so when I say we're unsuited for each other, I mean we're unsuited for each other."
