Even If We Take Ten Thousand Steps Back

When the apocalypse arrives, Zhu Yuemian awakens a spatial ability.

Thinking she'd awakened a powerful ability, Zhu Yuemian decides to find herself a bodyguard.

After looking around for a while, she sets her sights on Yu Heng, an ice ability user with incredible stamina who can knock out a bunch of trash with a single punch.

But Yu Heng is just like his ability: a human-shaped block of ice. When Zhu Yuemian finally gets a chance to get close to him, she tells him to follow her into the woods because she has a special treasure to show him.

Yu Heng, after seeing the special treasure: ...

After showing Yu Heng her special treasure, Zhu Yuemian says, "Even if we take a step back, can't you admit you're partly at fault? It's your fault for being so strong that I want you as my bodyguard!"

Yu Heng ignores her and leaves.

A healthy romantic relationship is important... No, it's really, really important!

Zhu Yuemian wants Yu Heng as her bodyguard, first because he's strong, and second because she wants his body.

She thought she'd melt the ice into water. She did, but who knew it would turn out to be bad water?

Yu Heng isn't a devious person by nature. He just gradually starts showing a possessive side after falling for her.

Zhu Yuemian quickly sees where this is headed and thinks, Oh no, I have to cut things off completely!

She'd rather Yu Heng treat her coldly than see his twisted side.

So Zhu Yuemian, who only wants a healthy relationship, starts distancing herself from Yu Heng.

Yu Heng realizes Zhu Yuemian is distancing herself from him.

At first, he feels restless and anxious. Then the weather gets hot, and she comes close to him again to cool off.

He immediately stops overthinking it.

Her strange behavior is probably just what she always says: "I'm about to throw a little tantrum." It's no big deal.

Zhu Yuemian won't leave him.

Never.
