Chapter 588 The Elder Doesn't Want to Take Care of the Child 30
"Heh~" Noticing Zhao Zhao's nervousness, Yue couldn't help but chuckle: "Zhao Zhao, what brings you here?" His tone was low and deep, and his voice was as soft as if he were whispering.
Zhao Zhao felt a chill run down his spine from the strange atmosphere. Just as he was about to speak, he noticed that Yue's finger was still pressed against his lips.
The night was too dark for Yue to see his expression clearly. She wanted to push him but was worried that she wouldn't be able to control her strength and hurt his wound.
The warm breath drew closer to his face, and Zhao Zhao frowned and turned his head away. So Yue pressed her face against his neck and gently rubbed against him.
"Did you just go to see Ye?" He asked softly, his hand silently placed behind Zhao Zhao's head, now encircling him in a restraining manner.
Zhao Zhao: "Yes, I want to get something from you now."
Yue wasn't surprised. She used her free fingers to touch Zhao Zhao's face again: "Heh~ What do you want... I'll give you anything."
The boy pressing down on her felt so strange that Zhao Zhao frowned and turned her head away from his touch.
"I want the summoning stone."
The boy visibly paused after he finished speaking.
His tone was aggrieved, and his voice was very low: "Did you come for Ye?"
"You're going to give him the summoning stone, aren't you?"
"Ah."
"You're being unfair! This was clearly a birthday gift you gave us, but now you're going to give it to Ye all to himself!" Yue's voice sounded both complaining and aggrieved.
Zhao Zhao couldn't stand the stickiness anymore, so she pressed on Yue's shoulders and slowly pushed his body away. Fortunately, Yue didn't struggle.
No sooner had he sat up than another body crashed into him.
"Yue!"
"Did I hurt you? I'm sorry~" Yue hugged Zhao Zhao and acted coquettishly, her deep eyes in the dark making it impossible to discern her true emotions.
"You're injured, be careful." Zhao Zhao felt that Yue was becoming more and more clingy to him, which was unreasonable.
He struggled to stand up, but Yue's long arms wrapped tightly around his waist: "Don't go, I'll give you the stone."
Seeing that Zhao Zhao was no longer moving, Yue quickly rummaged under her pillow and pulled out a stone, handing it to Zhao Zhao with a pitiful expression: "Here."
“You…” Zhao Zhao said helplessly, “You can get the summons stone back from Ye after next week.”
Yue exclaimed happily, "Really?! That's great!" He had thought Zhao Zhao didn't want to give it to him anymore.
The boy was so excited that he didn't care at all that his movements hurt his wound.
"Ah."
Yue asked again, "Then, if I miss you in the future, can I use the stone to summon you back to my side?" He still remembered that Zhao Zhao had warned him not to summon him unless necessary when they were children, so now he dared not use the stone without her permission.
Zhao Zhao's mind started to scramble again: "Why are you thinking about me for no reason? Do you want me to study with you? But you're all grown up now, you don't need my guidance anymore."
"Besides, I remember you didn't like me being around you often when you were little."
"I was silly and ignorant when I was a child, but things are different now. I don't mean to distance myself from you!" Yue quickly explained. If he had the chance, he would even like to go back to his past self and slap his foolish self.
Zhao Zhao nodded, then, remembering that Yue couldn't see clearly, said, "I understand."
He tried to get up, but Yue hugged his waist and wouldn't let him: "I have insomnia tonight. Can you stay up with me like you used to? You haven't stayed up with me in a long time."
"Phoenix Lord Yue, you've grown up now." Because when Ye was already a young man, Yue was still a cub, so Zhao Zhao took care of him almost like a cub until he grew up.
After sleeping for fifty years, Yue's personality changed drastically, and she became increasingly attached to him.
However, to his relief, Yue stopped arguing or fighting with Ye under his watchful eye.
"Just this once, please?"
His long arms wrapped around Zhao Zhao's neck again. Even though Yue is now taller than him, she still acts coquettishly without any sense of incongruity.
Zhao Zhao is soft-hearted and can't stand it when others act cute towards him, especially since this person is someone he raised as a child.
So he agreed: "Okay, turn on the light, I'll sit here and read."
So Yue happily went to light the lamps.
As Zhao Zhao picked up the book, she suddenly pulled him to her bedside.
With a fair and delicate face, she looked tenderly at Zhao Zhao: "You'll read to me, okay?"
The bottom line was pushed back again and again, but Zhao Zhao thought it didn't matter, just to make the child happy.
After Yue grew up, he hadn't spent much time alone with her in a long time.
The clear, soothing voice lingered in her ears. Yue lay down, closed her eyes, and her eyes involuntarily became a little moist.
Time is so precious that he doesn't even want to sleep now.
However, he couldn't bear to let Zhaozhao read for so long, so after a quarter of an hour, he pretended to be breathing as if he were asleep.
The flickering light and shadows indicated that Zhao Zhao had extinguished most of the candles.
He sat at the table quietly reading, leaving only a single candle for his own light.
Yue quietly opened her eyes. Zhao Zhao was reading a book, and he was looking at Zhao Zhao. The serious and gentle boy was the most handsome.
A gentle smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.
That night, Yue couldn't bear to sleep. Even after Zhao Zhao finally fell asleep on the table, Yue still watched his figure after covering him with a blanket.
In those gentle, golden eyes, there was only that person's figure.
........
The next morning, Zhao Zhao noticed a noise beside her. Still half asleep, she propped her head up from the table and found Yue getting dressed.
He silently turned his head away. Yue noticed his movement and said cheerfully, "Zhao Zhao, can you help me tie my belt?"
"My own department."
"Ok."
After a few soft rustling sounds, the boy stepped forward with a blue hairband, looking at him expectantly: "Help me fix my hair, just tie it into a side braid like before."
"Do it yourself." Zhao Zhao said lazily, having just woken up.
"I just want your help~"
When Yue's hair grew long when he was little, Zhao Zhao personally braided it into his first side braid, and he still has this hairstyle today, many years later.
The young man has a gentle and refined appearance, and his simple hairstyle does not diminish his charm.
Zhao Zhao rested his chin on his hand. At that moment, the sun rose, and the rosy light shone through the window, illuminating the boy's golden eyes.
His eyes looked at him, and they were shining.
"Okay." Zhao Zhao smiled and stretched out his hand with distinct knuckles. Yue placed the hair ribbon and his hand into Zhao Zhao's palm.
Her smooth, long hair was carefully braided into an exquisite side braid, and her slender fingers weaved through the strands. Yue's heart was pounding.
"Bang bang bang!"
He couldn't help but turn his head, only to see the boy in the rosy light with an unusually gentle expression. Seeing him turn his head, the boy lazily raised his eyes and asked, "Hmm?"
"It's nothing, I just think Zhao Zhao, you're very pretty~"
"Thump thump thump." His heart was pounding. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't bear to break the beautiful tranquility.
"You look good too."
He heard Zhao Zhao praising him as well.
Yue smiled, a genuine and happy smile.
The hair was quickly styled, and Zhao Zhao soon left with the summoning stone.
Yue watched his figure leave, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
