Jin Lei waited and waited, not knowing how much time had passed, but in the next spring when the flowers were in full bloom, he seemed to smell a familiar scent.
The boy stood up in surprise and looked behind him.
"Tu Yuan".
Even though she has been gone for a long time, she still looks the same as when I last saw her, just as beautiful.
"That little bird told me you were looking for me," Tu Yuan asked the boy in front of her directly.
“Yes.” Jin Lei looked up at her. “I want to see you.”
Tu Yuan covered her lips, trying to keep her smile from being too obvious. "Then why do you want to see me?"
Why did he want to see her? Jin Lei couldn't explain why, but he thought about it carefully.
"Perhaps it's because you are the first unfamiliar monster I've ever met."
Tu Yuan's smile froze for a moment, then she shouted loudly, "Now that you've seen it, can I leave now?"
Before Jin Lei could reply, she transformed into her original form and ran towards the woods.
"Tu Yuan, wait for me."
That's not what I meant.
Jin Lei chased after him, but the black wolf ran too fast. He kept following behind, but there was always some distance between them.
Once she left Wushan, he never saw her again. Perhaps because of this anger, he didn't want to come back again.
Jin Lei was somewhat worried. The invisible spiritual energy began to surge forward, forming a wall.
Seeing that her path was blocked, Tu Yuan turned around angrily to look at Jin Lei, "Why are you stopping me? I'm leaving."
"Tu Yuan, let me explain, that's not what I meant."
“I’ve always wanted to see you, but I can’t get out, so I sent Immortal to find you.”
Jin Lei's words contain many meanings. For example, he cannot leave this place. For him, Wushan is both his birthplace and his prison.
Then there's that little black bird, named Immortal.
But Tu Yuan only heard him say that he missed her, and her anger subsided a little.
She suddenly remembered that he seemed to be the only spirit here, which explained his lack of knowledge.
"Then let me ask you, do you want to be with me?"
Jin Lei nodded hesitantly, "I want to."
"However, I cannot leave Wushan."
"Then do you want to have wolf pups with me?"
"Hmm." Jin Lei thought to herself, if the little wolf looked a lot like her, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
"Then I'll ask you one last time, why do you want to see me?"
Tu Yuan had been bothered by this question, and clearly, Jin Lei's previous answer had not satisfied her.
It even made her angry.
She traveled a long way to Wushan, but not for just one sentence.
Jin Lei carefully considered his answer, afraid that the girl would get angry and leave. Suddenly, he remembered the question that Bu Si had asked him earlier.
The little bird perched on the tree and asked him if he liked the black wolf named Tu Yuan, otherwise why would he keep wanting to see her?
At that time, Jin Lei did not understand what the immortal meant by "like".
But looking at Tu Yuan, who was about to leave, he suddenly understood.
"I like you."
"I wanted to see you because I like you." The boy's delicate face flushed slightly after he finished speaking.
The black wolf transformed into human form and strode up to him, saying, "I like you too."
As they gazed at each other, affection blossomed between them.
Wushan is vast, and Jin Lei will take Tu Yuan to different places, but no matter how vast it is, there will always be a day when it is all gone.
The demon race does not keep track of years, and Jin Lei did not know how much time had passed, but he felt that time always flew by when he was with Tu Yuan.
The spring flowers are beginning to fade, and the height of summer is fast approaching.
Jin Lei had been feeling uneasy lately. As he led the girl to the mountaintop, he couldn't help but ask, "A Yuan, when are you planning to leave?"
When he said this, Jin Lei didn't look at her; his gaze was fixed ahead, and his eyes suddenly felt a little sore.
He always remembered what the Undying had said: the Wolf Slayer Clan had no fixed abode and liked to go to many places.
But he had no choice but to stay here.
The last time I saw Tu Yuan was by accident; it just so happened that the Tu Lang clan had come here.
It was around that time, I think.
"Leave? When did I say I was leaving?" Tu Yuan looked at him with a surprised expression.
"Really?" Jin Lei's voice was somewhat muffled.
"real."
Tu Yuan looked somewhat helpless and stood still. "Turn your head and let me see."
When Jin Lei turned his head, Tu Yuan didn't show any surprise when she saw his slightly moist eyes.
Jin Lei is somewhat sensitive and always feels anxious and insecure.
Tu Yuan tiptoed and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, her voice tender, "Don't think so much, aren't we doing fine now?"
"But I can't go out with you."
If Tu Yuan stayed with him, she would never be able to leave Wushan.
“I’ve been to many places before, and besides, this place is great.”
"As long as you're with me, that's enough."
When Tu Yuan came to Wushan, her clan advised her that it would be better to marry into the clan than to marry other spirits.
But Tu Yuan didn't like them. She preferred cleaner ones, like the mountain spirits, who were clean and beautiful.
The wolf-slaying clan was nomadic, but Tu Yuan wanted to settle down after meeting Jin Lei.
Living here with him seems like a good idea.
