Chapter 331 He Wants More Than He Has Now
Yaya immediately ran to Yin Xiu and handed the red flower in her hand to him, "Brother, look! This is a beautiful flower I found!"
"Yeah." Yin Xiu reached out and took it, holding it in his hand.
Li Mo, who was standing by, squeezed the flowers in her hand and handed them to Yin Xiu, smiling and saying, "Give your boyfriend a better one next time."
Yin Xiu took it, holding the two fragile little flowers, his eyes gentle, "I will put them away."
Yin Xiu liked it, which was more important than anything else. They felt satisfied and seemed to have forgotten the purpose of the competition in the first place.
Yaya looked into the house, staring at the cat that had transformed back into human form. She happily handed the second flower she had picked to the cat mother, "This one is also very beautiful. It's for Mom."
The mother cat walked lightly to Yaya, wagged her tail, opened her mouth and picked up the flower. She rubbed Yaya's head, her eyes full of tenderness.
Yin Xiu also squatted down and touched Yaya's hair. "Brother will be going on a long trip soon. It will take some time before he can come back to see you. Remember to stay here with mom."
"Where are you going, brother?" Yaya's face was full of confusion. Where else could they go besides the copy?
"Let's go to a place a little further away from here. Your mother will tell you later." Yin Xiu rubbed Yaya's little face. "When I'm done with my work, I'll come to see Yaya first."
"Okay." Although Yaya didn't understand, she nodded. "Remember to come back early."
She had already assumed that Heiqiqi would go out with her brother. Since Heiqiqi was with her brother, she had nothing to worry about. However, she still felt a little sad when she thought that she wouldn't be able to see her brother for some time.
But her brother will definitely come back to see her soon.
Because of Yin Xiu's pat on the head, Yaya quickly forgot about this worry and happily circled around Yin Xiu.
Li Mo thought that she would soon have her boyfriend all to herself, so she generously gave him to her for a while. After all, the boyfriend would be hers alone from then on.
As the last time they spent together recently, Yaya happily took Yin Xiu to visit the woods around the cabin, and joyfully held his hand as they walked through every patch of flowers and grass around them.
She squatted on a small stone in the flowers, carefully weaving a garland with her head down, and fiddled with the garland with her small hands as a gift for Yin Xiu before he left.
Li Mo was directed by her to pick and hand out flowers.
Yin Xiu sat aside and watched the two people busying around. He rested his chin on his hand and stared at the two figures, one red and one black, moving in and out among the flowers, then leaned against a rock and took a short rest.
This small environment is elegant and comfortable. Being around familiar people, Yin Xiu finds it rare to find peace.
Perhaps because he was mentally relaxed, he leaned against the stone and took a short nap with his eyes closed.
In just a short while, he had a dream.
I dreamed that I returned to the door of the orphanage many years ago, holding Yaya in my left hand and Li Mo in my right hand, and he walked past his past with the treasures he had now.
He saw Xiaoxiao standing at the door waving to him, and he jumped and lay on the wall of the orphanage, watching them walk away.
The orphanage that was always dark and gloomy in his memory no longer seemed as gloomy as before. He left the place that had trapped him for the first half of his life and walked towards a more distant place.
When Yin Xiu slowly opened his eyes, his legs and shoulders felt numb.
He looked down and saw Yaya lying on his lap, Li Mo leaning on his shoulder, and a rough wreath on his head.
The woods were quiet and peaceful, and the sunlight filtered through the gaps between the leaves, casting mottled shadows on them.
As soon as Yin Xiu woke up, Li Mo opened his eyes and looked over at him.
He didn't need to sleep, he just wanted to sleep with his boyfriend.
Yin Xiu reached out and touched Yaya who was lying on his knees, then turned to look at Li Mo.
Finally, after waking up, he was not in a dark or silent room, but was snuggling with the person he depended on. This was a rare warmth for Yin Xiu.
He once heard someone tell him that if he lacked something in childhood, he would try desperately to make up for it when he grew up, and would subconsciously ask for it.
He felt that he was missing a lot of things and was very incomplete. As he went around in circles in the copy, it seemed that the gaps in him had been filled without him noticing.
"Awake?" Li Mo asked in a low voice.
"Awake." Yin Xiu also lowered his voice, afraid of waking up Yaya, and answered softly.
"Did your boyfriend sleep well? Did you feel a little more relaxed?"
"Um."
"Yaya has made the wreath and put it on your head. I also helped by picking the flowers."
Yin Xiu lowered his eyes and chuckled, "I know."
Their soft whispers and conversations in the quiet woods were particularly hazy and gentle, as if they were isolated from the world, with no sign of the disputes and dangers outside.
Yin Xiu felt at ease, thinking that when he could finally let go of all his worries, he would definitely find a place like this to live in, not as a so-called God of Killing or a player, but to spend his retirement as Yin Xiu.
Then, he will have more than he has now.
When Yaya woke up, she had already returned to her own little room.
She walked downstairs sleepily, looking at the living room where only Cat Mom was, and asked blankly, "Where's my brother?"
She seemed to have a dream that her brother came to see her. When she woke up the first time, her brother came. When she woke up the second time, her brother left.
"Meow... meow meow meow..." the mother cat explained.
Yaya pouted and said, "I haven't said goodbye to my brother yet, and I don't know when he will be back."
“Meow meow meow!”
"Brother, do you like my wreath? That's great!" Yaya immediately became happy again.
"Meow meow meow."
"Okay! I'll go eat the pancakes now! I'll wait here for my brother to come back!" Yaya quickly put her sorrow behind her and ran happily to the table.
No one knows how long it will take to return, and what they can see when they go to another unfamiliar time. Before leaving, Yin Xiu decided to take a look at all the monsters he knew and with whom he had less rigid relationships.
If he were to count them himself, there seemed to be very few.
He pulled Li Mo through the darkness and came to a familiar place.
Ever since the last time he messed up everything here and left behind many bad memories, Yin Xiu no longer likes this school very much.
Deep Sea Academy should have been a place worth looking forward to for him, but now that he has come to this place, there are only two memories in his mind.
The first time I came here, I was isolated by other students because of the mechanism problems of Deep Sea Academy. When I got stuck in the copy, I just drew my sword and killed all the students.
The second time I came here, due to a mechanism problem, I was tempted by the students and was influenced by them. Because the dungeon was stuck, I killed the dungeon boss.
After completing the Deep Sea Academy dungeon twice, only two familiar people were left, the cafeteria aunt and the teacher.
When I came back here again, the school had been restored and returned to its original appearance, but the copy had not yet reopened, so there were no students on campus.
The only sound in the quiet campus was the crashing of waves, which was still surrounded by darkness.
Yin Xiu looked up and saw a faint light in the staff dormitory in the night. It was the only light in the dark school.
It was very late now and the lights in the cafeteria were off. Yin Xiu didn't know where his aunt had gone, so he went to the staff dormitory to take a look.
"I don't like it here." Li Mo still has some bad memories of this place and hates it.
"It's okay." Yin Xiu calmly said, "I don't like it either."
They just came to see my aunt and left after seeing her, without staying even a second longer.
