Yuexi quickly finished watching the movie. After calming down, she sat on the sofa and began to reminisce.
Ji Yun opened her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
Sensing that Yuexi was feeling down, he tentatively asked her a question.
To seasoned viewers who have seen countless films, this might not matter, but for Yuexi, who is new to it, it seems a bit uncomfortable.
Yuexi looked at him: "You said humans and demons are different, can they really be together?"
In her world, such feelings don't exist, so she can't find a reference point to copy.
Ji Yun put away his Dharma form, stopped the tempering, walked to the sofa, took her hand and comforted her, "It depends on the two parties involved. If they think it's okay, then it's okay. Although it may be cruel, it's not wrong. Look at the White Snake, although... By the way, watch this movie again."
Ji Yun suddenly remembered the White Snake and saw many versions of it. Seeing that Yue Xi was in such a low mood, he decided to show her a version of "The Legend of the White Snake".
This is a movie that can be both joyful and touching, and it might help ease Yuexi's inner melancholy.
Ji Yun sat down next to her, ready to watch the movie with her.
Suddenly, Yuexi moved closer to him, resting her head on his shoulder.
"Do you men like this?"
"Yes... I really like it." Ji Yun was caught off guard. Was he about to become Ning Caichen?
He reached out from behind and put his arm around her, and the two of them watched the movie quietly like that.
Nengren: Watch out, there's a demon!
Qingqing: A demon? How do you know there's a demon?
Nengren: I'm an expert, of course I know.
......
The two watched with great interest. Ji Yun had already watched it once, but that didn't stop him from watching it again with Yue Xi.
After a while, I started to feel uncomfortable.
Ji Yun whispered, "Can we change our position when we hug? That would be more comfortable."
Yuexi turned her head to look at him and asked, "How do I change?"
Then Ji Yun hugged her from behind and leaned her against the sofa.
"Isn't this a bit inappropriate? We're not Daoist partners yet." Yuexi felt a little uncomfortable, like someone was holding a child.
Ji Yun said softly, "It's okay, we're completely innocent, just good friends."
Suddenly, his phone screen lit up. He opened it and saw that he had received a notification that his salary had been deposited into his account.
Then he stopped paying attention and continued watching the movie while holding Yuexi.
"He's so stupid, he can't even tell that Qingqing is a demon." Yuexi laughed in his arms.
Ji Yun felt a pang of guilt. Had she deceived this naive and innocent fairy? Oh well, she'd find out eventually anyway, so it wouldn't count as deceiving her.
If he hadn't met Yuexi, he couldn't imagine how numb his life would have been.
His hand unconsciously climbed upwards, but Yuexi immediately grabbed it.
What do you want to do?
"No... I had my own ideas about this move, it wasn't my intention," Ji Yun explained.
“We’re just ordinary friends, you can’t do that.” Yuexi’s voice was barely audible.
"Yes, I know. We're completely innocent. Let's continue watching the movie."
It must be said that these people all have excellent acting skills, making it impossible for anyone to feel embarrassed while watching.
Seeing Yuexi giggling incessantly, he nonchalantly reached for his phone, which was placed in front of the sofa.
His face happened to be pressed against Yuexi's face. He casually pulled his phone away and then accidentally kissed her.
Yuexi turned to look at him: "What you just did..."
"Huh? What just happened? I was getting my phone." Ji Yun looked bewildered.
"You're lying to me, you just kissed me." Yuexi touched the spot where she had been kissed.
"Really? I didn't notice just now."
"Really? Actually, it's okay if you kiss me, I won't hit you." Yuexi's heart stirred.
Ji Yun's eyes lit up, but then she realized that there was no such thing as a free lunch and that there must be a trap. So she said righteously, "We are just good friends. We can't just kiss each other. That's not right."
Yuexi stared intently into his eyes, trying to see if he was lying.
Ji Yun looked down at her phone. She hadn't checked her WeChat Moments in a long time. The post she had made before had received a lot of likes, but she hadn't had time to look at it.
I finished watching the movie, and the ending was happy, which put me in a good mood.
"This movie is so good..." Yuexi shifted her body, feeling a little uncomfortable, and complained, "Take your phone out, it's poking me."
"Hiss." Ji Yun frowned, looked at the phone next to the sofa, and quickly moved her body back.
As evening approached, the two went out and strolled along the roadside.
Looking at the bustling crowds on the street, Yuexi remarked, "It's very safe here; there are hardly any disputes between people."
Ji Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Life safety is still quite guaranteed, but other aspects still exist. Arguments and fights do happen, but people are very restrained."
"That's still much better than where we are. Those with low cultivation levels can just disappear without a trace if they encounter any problems, and there's no reasoning with them."
Although Yuexi usually lives in the sect, she has heard a lot of things.
While they were waiting for the traffic light, a little girl skateboarded across the road.
A car sped towards them at an extremely high speed, showing no sign of slowing down. At this rate, even if they braked, it would be too late.
"Hey, kid, come back here!" someone called out from the side.
Ji Yun dashed over, grabbed the child, and pulled him back a few steps.
Just as they pulled the child back, the car ran over the little girl's skateboard and crushed it.
He must have cultivated this skill to have such an ability; under normal circumstances, he definitely wouldn't have been able to react in time.
The little girl was so frightened that she burst into tears.
"Whose child is this? Why isn't anyone watching him?!" Ji Yun was furious. Such a young child, on a busy main road with cars coming and going, and not a single adult was around.
The people around looked at each other, clearly not recognizing the child or knowing whose child it was.
An old man approached him, looked at the little girl, and said, "I knew something bad was going to happen. Luckily you saved her, otherwise such a young child would have lost her life."
"Yes, I didn't dare go over there either. I saw that car was going too fast."
A woman quickly patted her chest and said, clearly frightened as well.
The police arrived at the scene quickly, handed the child over to them, recorded some information, and left.
The two went to a milk tea shop, ordered two cups of milk tea, and slowly drank them.
Yuexi munched on the pearls in her milk tea and said, "I didn't intervene when I saw you set off. Actually, I could tell that the little girl would get hit if no one helped her."
Ji Yun thought for a moment and decided it was better to explain, since Yue Xi's understanding might differ from his own: "Well, if it's about saving people, you can use your cultivation, but don't go too far, like lifting a car with your bare hands, that's too scary. Of course, if there's really no other way, then that's another story. I can only say I'll try my best."
