A Halloween Extra Chapter: Si Jin's Family!
"Ding-dong~"
The doorbell rang.
Si Jin paused for a moment, then casually hung her uniform jacket on the rack near the door and turned to open it.
Today is the first Halloween in the divine realm, a festival that has gradually infiltrated from the human world of the three thousand planes. It is almost midnight, and the streets are still brightly lit. Si Jin has just finished her work of maintaining order for the day and has just taken a break. As soon as she opened the door, she saw a person wearing a pumpkin head plush headgear... Yu Qing?
Even though he had been here for three hundred years, the round-faced boy still looked obedient. He was wearing a sweater with dark orange and light orange stripes, and he looked up at him earnestly with his almond-shaped eyes.
“Um…” Yu Qing paused for a moment, then said, “If you don’t give me candy, I’ll play tricks.”
Si Jin smiled, turned around and went to the storage room to take out a lot of fairy candies and fairy fruits.
Since Si Yu hadn't dressed up and was just tagging along with Yu Qing, Si Jin thought for a moment and only gave him a single fairy fruit.
Si Yu and Yu Qing left. Yu Qing, clutching the heavy bag in her arms, murmured, "Why... isn't your father Yuan home?"
"I don't know." Si Yu shook his head. "Maybe he made Jin's father angry again?"
Yu Qing said, "But I think your father is a very gentle and tolerant person. He usually... rarely gets angry with people, right?"
Yu Qing thought back carefully, "In the past three hundred years, it seems that... he really hasn't argued with anyone?"
“No, but his status is there. He has an iron fist. Once he gives an order, no one can change it. Who would dare to go against him?” Si Yu said, chewing on a fairy fruit as he walked. “Moreover, I think Father Jin is the kind of person who says, ‘I won’t offend others unless they offend me; if they offend me, they will definitely receive the most severe punishment.’”
“But he was just following the rules, he’s a very easygoing person.” Yu Qing was still puzzled. “Why would he get angry?”
"I don't know." Si Yu finished eating the immortal fruit in his hand, casually tossing the pit into the trash can beside him, and said, "If Father Jin won't get angry within 360 methods, then Father Yuan will always be able to find the 361st, 362nd... 363rd..."
Si Yu spoke seriously, but in reality, he secretly reached out his tentacles, attempting to casually steal a fairy fruit from Yu Qing's bag.
Yu Qing noticed, but did not dodge; instead, she raised her hand and held the bag up to him.
Si Yu's pupils flickered slightly. She lowered her head and kissed him, then took the entire large bag and said, "I'll take it."
With Yu Qing's hands finally at ease, Si Yu, passing by the roadside, bought him a cup of milk tea.
Yu Qing asked, "Where to next?"
“Hmm…” Si Yu thought for a moment, “Let’s go ask my father Yuan and Uncle Yu for immortal fruits.”
Actually, Si Jin was angry for a very simple reason—when he was leading the heavenly soldiers to maintain order on Halloween today, he discovered that another memory in his mind had been altered.
It was probably during his difficult times that an anonymous, selfless, white-robed immortal took care of him with all his might, showing him meticulous care and protection. Moreover, the white-robed immortal himself enjoyed taking care of him.
The white-robed immortal's face gradually became clearer in my memory, solidifying into the appearance of Lin Yuan.
"…………"
Si Jin didn't understand why this kid seemed to really enjoy going back in time, returning to the past, and raising little Si Jin all over again.
A life free from illness, disaster, hardship, and tribulation should be considered a good thing.
However, Si Jin himself did not like this change in his memories, so he directly told Lin Yuan that he disliked it and told him not to go home and to sleep separately.
Si Jin was exhausted today. When Si Yu arrived, it was almost midnight. After taking a shower and changing into his Tianyun silk pajamas, he had just lain down when a pair of warm arms embraced him from behind.
A familiar scent...
Si Jin frowned and tried to push the person away, but after struggling for a couple of moments, she couldn't break free. Instead, because the blanket was pulled up, she heard a "Achoo!" with a heavy nasal tone.
Si Jin stopped pushing the person.
Realizing he had given up resisting, Lin Yuan pressed his advantage, sniffing and hugging him even closer.
"How did you catch a cold?" Si Jin asked.
Lin Yuan's voice was a little nasal and hoarse as he said, "When I went back in time, there was a place that was covered in ice and snow. I wasn't wearing enough clothes, cough cough, I got really cold."
"Hoo—" Si Jin exhaled softly. The bedroom was dimly lit with warm light. The deity slowly opened his eyes, his pure white eyelashes falling lightly to cover his blue eyes, which were filled with unclear thoughts.
After a moment, he asked, "Do you know why I'm angry with you?"
Lin Yuan's breath rested against the crook of his neck.
Si Jin sensed that Lin Yuan had shaken his head.
Si Jin said, "No one can have a smooth life all the time, no one can be perfect, and no one can do everything right."
Si Jin said, "People can be young and impetuous, make mistakes, encounter hardships, and suffer pain."
"But it was precisely because of these pains that I was able to grow rapidly. I became resolute and sharp, and then gradually became tolerant and gentle."
"I gradually realized that the world I imagined differed from the rules of the real world. I realized that life is mostly unsatisfactory, things don't go as planned, and plans can't keep up with changes."
"But most things don't go as planned, and there are countless changes. But when I think about it carefully, they are all within my acceptable range. So I started to accept the changes and slowly grew."
"If you think about it, everything in the world has its gains and losses."
"It is because of different experiences that different people are formed."
Everyone is different.
"Whether it was youthful arrogance or hardship, the passage of time has brought about its own kind of refinement."
"Good times bring fame and fortune; adversity brings trials and growth."
“These are all gifts bestowed by time.” Si Jin turned around as she spoke, raising her hand to pat Lin Yuan’s head. “A Yuan, do you think if a person’s memories are altered, is he still himself?”
Lin Yuan's breathing was a little heavy. He held Si Jin in his arms and listened quietly. After a moment, he said something completely unrelated: "I like you."
Si Jin gave a soft "hmm" and didn't say anything more. He knew he had remembered.
Lin Yuan seemed to be really cold, his breathing was intermittent, "Can I leave tomorrow? My head is really dizzy."
Si Jin asked, "Did you take your medicine?"
Lin Yuan nodded.
Si Jin then reached out and hugged him tighter, carefully tucking the blanket around him so he could lean against her and sleep more comfortably, saying, "If you know, then you don't need to leave."
Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, his dark pupils lifting to look at him, and he asked, "Don't we have to abide by the rule of not sleeping in the same bed for three days after making a mistake?"
Si Jin looked down at him and lightly tapped his brow with her fingertip: "You should always treat your own people better. For example... Si Yu wasn't wearing makeup today, but I still gave him a fairy fruit."
Lin Yuan lowered his head and kissed his neck: "You're so good."
In fact, when Si Yu came to find him, Lin Yuan noticed that the bag Si Yu was carrying contained more than three servings of immortal candy and immortal fruit.
As night deepened, Si Jin turned off the light and went to sleep. As the moon began to set in the west, he was awakened by a slight discomfort and a feeling of dampness.
When Si Jin groggily opened her eyes, her pupils instantly contracted: "How dare you do this while I'm sleeping...!"
"Um……"
"Master, we've slept for over five hours..." Lin Yuan lowered his head and kissed his earlobe, his voice tender and seductive, "It's almost dawn..."
