Chapter 37.3 - ALIC Chapter 37.3
Lin Ziran looked at him in surprise. His lackey never talked a lot. Why was he curious about this jade today?
It was rare for his lackey to ask a question and he has been so agreeable during this period of time, Lin Ziran readily replied, “This was left to me by a friend.”
He thought this jade pendant was pretty good-looking, like an ancient nobleman, and he had been wearing it since.
Xuan Yan clenched his fingers slightly, his voice low: “Your friend…”
Lin Ziran hadn’t thought of the blind man for a long time. Xuan Yan’s words reminded him of the scene at that time. His eyes darkened and he shook his head and sighed, “He died because of me.”
“I just went to say goodbye to him, who knew it was discovered by my enemy, who killed him out of anger…” Lin Ziran paused, seeming to think of something unhappy and said: “Forget it, I don’t plan to go out anymore, go buy some vegetables and come back later. Your master, I want to show off my skills!”
Speaking of the blind man, Lin Ziran recalled the cooking skills he had worked so hard on in this world. Suddenly, his hands felt itchy. Besides, it was a bit tiring to eat outside every day, so he should just eat at home today!
What should I make? Just make a hot pot! Lin Ziran felt better again.
Xuan Yan was silent for a moment, then turned around and went out.
Soon he came back with a lot of vegetables.
Lin Ziran told Xuanyan to control the wind, and then went into the kitchen with the vegetables.
Xuan Yan stood quietly outside. Even though he was separated from the wall, the situation inside was unobstructed in his eyes.
The black-haired young man cut the vegetables skillfully. When there was no one, he seemed to have dropped his guard. His sharp eyebrows were much gentler than usual and his eyes were warm and soft… He scattered the spices with one hand and tried some. During which, the corners of his lips raised slightly and then he skillfully chopped and washed the vegetables. It seemed that doing these things made him very happy…
It seems that this was the real him.
For some reason, it was just such a simple scene, but Xuan Yan couldn’t tear his eyes away.
He suddenly remembered the days in that gloomy cave.
Can’t see, can’t speak, can’t move…
But he knew that there was a person around him, even if he could not see anything, he could feel his perseverance in his heart. His unwavering perseverance to not give up in the face of difficulties, and his gentleness and kindness under unforgiving words.
He built their home like a small animal, hoarded a lot of wild fruits, tried to cook new dishes, and shared them with him happily after cooking. It seems that such a simple life is enough for him…
He looked forward to his arrival every day.
At that time, what he wanted most in his heart was to be able to see what the young man looked like, instead of trying to guess the existence of this person based on his imagination. It’s just that a while later, he tried to deny this side of himself, as if trying to separate himself from that life…
But now, he finally saw it.
It was just as he imagined.
Even if fate was not fair to him and the world was full of malice towards him, he was still willing to live an optimistic life…
It seemed as if he had no worries.
Is there really someone or something in this world that can completely blacken this person? Suddenly Xuan Yan had doubts.
His perception of himself was shaken.
Why? Why is it that he can ignore anything, no matter how others look at him or treat him? He can still treat it as nothing…
Xuan Yan’s eyes darkened and the hands hanging beside him were clenched tightly.
Lin Ziran was busy for a long time and finally made a hot pot. This was not an ordinary hot pot. Even the soup was made from scratch! He was very satisfied with his current craftsmanship. It was not clear whether his acting skills had improved by playing this game, but his cooking skills had definitely improved!
It’s a worthwhile trip to light up a skill point!
It was boring to eat hot pot alone, so Lin Ziran happily opened the door and asked his lackey to come in and eat together, also to show off his talent.
Xuan Yan was not polite. He silently sat down beside Lin Ziran.
Lin Ziran thoughtfully helped him pick up the dishes and prepared all the sauces for him, smiling, “Cook whatever you like.”
Xuan Yan picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.
For him, this mundane food was no longer of any use, let alone have an appetite. Except for that period of his life, he hasn’t eaten anything for 100,000 years. Just like his life, he gradually abandoned everything and emotions that he thinks are unnecessary…
He was living less and less like a person.
But the flavours that filled his mouth not only did not disgust him, they even seemed to entice him to try more…
Just like the youth in front of him.
What were these emotions densely emerging in his heart?
Seeing Xuan Yan eating so carefully, Lin Ziran’s expression was still filled with a little struggle and pain. He suddenly felt heartache. This hapless guy couldn’t have never eaten such delicious dishes before. Did this little master accidentally subdue him with just a bit of skills?
Lin Ziran patted him on the shoulder and said cheerfully: “Since you are following me, everything else aside, whatever you want to eat in the future is no problem!”
Follow him to eat and drink to his heart’s content, hahahaha.
Xuan Yan’s thin lips were flattened, and his eyes lowered. For some reason, his heart demon was very quiet today.
But his heart did not feel the slightest peace.
Instead, the waves felt even worse.
………………
Lin Ziran ate his fill and was satisfied today. This cultivation world lacked entertainment, so he went to bed early as before.
The silver moon hung high in the middle of the night.
The closed door suddenly creaked and opened by itself.
Xuan Yan walked in step by step.
He finally stood in front of Lin Ziran’s bed, staring down at the young man on the bed.
The young man’s long black hair spread out on the bed while he curled up. Under the bridge of his straight nose, his lips were slightly parted, his breathing was light and soothing, and his long eyelashes were like a fan…
He slept very heavily.
Defenseless.
Xuan Yan hesitated for a long time before he stretched out his hand and gently brushed his fingertips across the other person’s eyebrows, nose, lips…
You like him.
Xuan Yan paused and a look of struggle and pain suddenly flashed across his eyes.
Why refuse to face your feelings? It is not shameful to like someone. You think you are a god, but in fact, you are just a person. It’s just been a long time. You have forgotten how you feel as a person…
In fact, being a man is much more interesting than being a god…
You have been ruthless and loveless for hundreds of thousands of years. Now, you finally like a person, but dare not get close. What is the meaning of living like this?
The voice gradually became bewitching.
If you want someone, you can just have him. You have the ability, don’t you?
He can belong solely to you.
Xuan Yan’s face was tense, his fingers were clenched, and his knuckles turned white. After a long time, he opened his mouth and said: “He likes Muyang.”
This is something he understood long ago.
Xuan Yan looked down at the young man on the bed, her eyes gentle and restrained.
You left me for Muyang…
You didn’t hesitate to give your life for Muyang…
Muyang is the only person you care for and love…
The inner demon’s voice suddenly became cold and irritable.
You are so annoying!
Why suppress yourself in this way?
You are about to lose anyway.
Why don’t you just give your body to me, what you dare not do – I will help you do it!
T/n: LET’S GO!! go wild
