To put it bluntly, both of them were rather heartless. One saw that their fates were intertwined and, without a word, went to the woman's house and took advantage of her. The other had already been somewhat interested in her, and after being taken advantage of, he simply gave in without any resentment or anger.
It's really not something that just anyone can achieve to get everyone together like this.
However, the Ten Nightmares could not stay in the mortal realm for long.
Ten years later.
Just like when he came, Shi Yan left without a trace. After returning home, Gu Hong habitually went to the bedroom to check if he was still fast asleep, but found no one there.
The sudden emptiness and fear made him uneasy. Gu Hong searched the world for Shi Yan like a madman, but ultimately found nothing.
...
Ten years have passed in the mortal realm. Shi Yan, who was originally raised by magic, has now truly stabilized in his youthful appearance.
The growth of Yuebai, Shiyan, and Xiyuan is mainly based on their character. As their character matures, they will also change accordingly until they reach adulthood.
When Shi Yan returned, his brothers celebrated with him, but knowing he was tired, they didn't linger and dispersed. Only Yue Bai stayed behind, looking at him with a cold expression but a somewhat complicated gaze.
"You're leaving just like that?" Yuebai asked. "What about the mortals?"
"Fourth Brother cares?" Shi Yan leaned lazily against the recliner, his lips slightly moving as he spoke leisurely.
"I'm worried about you." Yuebai's expression grew even more serious. "You and he never made any promises. Won't he change his mind if you leave like this?"
"What if you change your mind?"
"You only have a connection with him in this life. If he changes his mind, won't you be alone for the rest of your life?" Yuebai was so angry at her little brother.
Shi Yan opened his eyes, glanced at him with a half-smile, and said leisurely, "Isn't Fourth Brother also single?"
Yuebai couldn't bear to say anything harsh to him, and was speechless for a long time. She could only slam her sleeves and turn to leave.
The silver willow branches swayed in the wind, tiny pink petals dancing in the breeze and landing on the dark hair of the young man on the couch. The young man's breathing gradually became steady, and he slowly fell asleep.
When Shi Yan opened his eyes again, he saw a familiar, cold and stern face, looking at him with a fierce expression due to the tightly furrowed brows.
Shi Yan slowly sat up, gently smoothing his sleeves, and smiled before speaking: "Ah Hong, you've arrived."
Gu Hong snorted angrily.
Every part of a dragon is a treasure, and dragon essence is the most precious of all. After many years of companionship, Gu Hong was no longer an ordinary person. However, since the first time Shi Yan accompanied him, she had given him the Suppressing Yuan Pearl, and only then did Gu Hong become no different from an ordinary person.
Shi Yan left without a word and departed for the heavens. Gu Hong searched for her in vain and spent many years drowning his sorrows in alcohol, gradually falling into poverty. Finally, he ran away from home and was hit by a car. The bead sensed that his life was in danger and shattered on its own. Gu Hong, in a daze, ascended directly to the upper realm.
After that, Gu Hong, who had sobered up, was found by Yue Bai and sent directly to the Ten Nightmares Mansion.
Gu Hong had lived a life of poverty for over a decade, and his appearance was disheveled and extremely unattractive. Shi Yan didn't seem to care, and simply approached him, smiling and beckoning, with a hint of ingratiation and delight: "Ah Hong..."
"I don't deserve such an intimate address as 'Dragon Prince.' I think I'm just a bed partner. I used to think that even though we're both men, there was at least some affection between us..." Gu Hong suddenly realized that his complaints were really unbearable, so he immediately shut up and didn't look at Shi Yan again.
Shi Yan simply smiled.
Human hearts are fickle. He could see that he and Gu Hong were destined to be together in this world, but after they passed away, would they still be able to remain the same?
Shi Yan abandoned him because she valued her own heart, not Gu Hong's.
He was destined to be with Gu Hong, but what about his own heart?
When I saw Gu Hong again, my joy was genuine.
He also had feelings for Gu Hong.
Shi Yan revealed his thoughts in detail.
Gu Hong's face grew even colder, his eyes practically spitting fire as he glared at him, gritting his teeth as he said, "You... scum!"
After thinking for a moment, Gu Hong suddenly changed his words: "No... Dragon Scum! Scumbag! Scumbag Top!"
"Okay, okay, it was my fault." Shi Yan hugged him, rubbing against him bonelessly, looking at him out of the corner of her eye. The seductive look in her eyes and the low, lewd voice made Gu Hong's blood rush to his head, and he shamelessly... got an erection.
Gu Hong was both angry and annoyed. He pushed him away, turned around, found a room, and slammed the door shut as he entered.
Shi Yan belatedly realized... Gu Hong was truly annoyed.
The concepts of dragons and humans are fundamentally different. A separation of more than ten years is but a fleeting moment in the eyes of a dragon, a brief respite. But Gu Hong suffers immense inner torment.
It doesn't matter, they will have plenty of time to tolerate and adapt to each other in the future.
This time, it wasn't just Shi Yan acting on his own whims, but Gu Hong passively accepting it.
Once you're certain of the ten nightmares in your heart, you'll change for them.
