Chapter 141 Fascinated
Talking about relationships can be daunting, especially when the person you're talking to happens to be your secret crush.
However, if the Elf King remembered everything today, it should not be a secret love, but an open love - Mei Yang found joy in suffering.
He suddenly stood up from his seat and stammered, "Let me put these dishes first..."
Before he could finish his words, the Elf King waved his hand, and the next second, the ingredients and tableware on the table, as well as the small stove under the casserole, all disappeared.
Even the tabletop was clean and shiny, as if it had just been wiped.
"Black tea or scented tea? Scented tea. You haven't had it for a while." said the Elf King.
Then, the glass teapot floated down from the antique display shelf, followed by an iron box filled with dried flowers, a honey jar, and dried fruits.
The bright yellow flame wrapped around the bottom of the teapot, and in the blink of an eye, the tea was brewed.
It was clearly a smooth operation, but Mei Yang could sense a hint of impatience in it - based on his understanding of the Elf King, he was actually a person who liked to do things with his own hands. He did everything he could physically do and did not rely on magic in his daily life.
From the time he used magic to make his bed in the morning, to now when he forcibly took away the tableware and quickly made tea, a series of actions vaguely revealed one thing.
The Elf King was already very impatient.
After realizing this, Mei Yang became even more timid.
The teapot floated to the low table in front of the Elf King. He waved his hand and the teapot poured out two cups of hot tea. One cup was flavored with a large amount of honey, and the other cup was simply decorated with two kumquats.
"Come and have tea." The Elf King called.
His voice was cold and indifferent, but his tone was unyielding.
"Oh." Mei Yang walked over obediently and sat down on the chair opposite him.
This is a group of tea seats by the windows. The redwood trees are a hundred meters high, and the tree house they live in is twenty meters high, which is about seven stories high.
Mei Yang looked outside and found that the leaves of some of the shorter trees around him were a mixture of orange and golden, and it was already autumn.
However, it was most likely not the autumn of the year when he first traveled through time.
Mei Yang was stunned for a moment. He turned around and saw the Elf King staring at him without blinking, which made him feel even more uneasy.
This is terrible, Mei Yang thought.
He moved restlessly twice, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, his eyes drifting left and right, but he didn't look at the Elf King.
The two legs that couldn't touch the ground were swaying left and right.
"Is your butt uncomfortable?" the Elf King asked him.
Then the next second, Mei Yang's sight moved up two inches, and he found that there was suddenly a soft cushion under his butt.
Mei Yang: “…”
Okay, okay.
Daddy is still as gentle and considerate as always hahahaha...
"Thank you, Wang." Mei Yang said in a low voice.
Then he heard the man opposite him sigh deeply.
"Mei Yang, after so many things have happened, do you still want to call me by a honorific?" he asked.
Mei Yang lowered his head and stopped talking.
He really didn't know how to deal with this situation. He lowered his head lower and lower, and his chin was almost touching his collarbone.
But I happened to see the smooth and delicate instep of my feet.
Yesterday, he ran wildly in the forest and his feet were rubbed with many wounds by the rattan sandals. Mei Yang didn't notice it when he was taking a shower, but now he can see clearly that those wounds have been carefully treated long ago.
It goes without saying who did it.
A little ostrich with its head lowered felt very sweet in its heart and couldn't help but slightly curl up the corners of its lips and smile secretly.
Before he could smile happily, the teacup in his hand was suddenly taken away. Mei Yang subconsciously looked up and saw the Elf King's slightly stern gaze.
"What do you mean by keeping silent?" The Elf King's tone grew colder. "Are you trying to muddle through and pretend that nothing happened?"
Mei Yang cried out in injustice: "No! I just, I just didn't know how to face you for a moment... I don't know how much of those things you remember..."
"Everything." The Elf King interrupted him, "I remember everything."
"Mei Yang, I hope you can understand one thing. That is, you are the one who experienced time travel, but you are not the only one who can bear the sequelae brought by it."
"In fact, you are my biggest sequelae."
"I feel like I've been sick for over three thousand years, but I never knew the cause. Until last night, when you suddenly appeared and threw yourself into my arms, those long-dormant memories suddenly awakened, and I finally understood why I was unhappy every day."
Mei Yang... Mei Yang has thought about this.
Countless times when he was feeling sad about himself, he thought about how uncomfortable it would be to stand in the Elf King's shoes. Just by putting himself in his shoes a little, his heart immediately felt a painful pounding.
He had no choice but to stop thinking about it and comfort himself that as long as he cherished the present, he would have many beautiful memories.
Now that it was brought up by the person involved, Mei Yang suddenly panicked.
Ignoring his fear and shyness, he jumped off his chair and tried to drag it to the side of the Elf King to sit next to him.
But the huge solid wooden chair was as heavy as iron and did not move at all.
In a hurry, Mei Yang simply turned around and rushed to the Elf King. Under the man's slightly puzzled gaze, he kicked off his slippers, climbed onto the chair by feeling the armrests, and sat down on the man's lap.
He was less than 1.8 meters tall and had slender bones. He looked particularly petite in front of the Elf King who was nearly two meters tall.
He sat on the man's lap in a duck-like position, his eye level with his, and the distance between them was no more than a fist.
Mei Yang said hurriedly, "No! I don't want to deny it, it's just that you know, it's the saying of destined partners..." His voice gradually faded, "You must know now that I lied... I'm sorry, although I lied on purpose, but, but..."
Tears quickly gathered in his eyes and he couldn't continue.
"It's okay," the Elf King said. "It's okay, I know."
His palms were large and warm, enough to cover Mei Yang's entire face with one hand. Now he was only holding one side of the black-haired boy's face, and with the index finger of his other hand, he bent up and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Someone comforted her, and Mei Yang immediately burst into tears.
He felt sad, distressed, guilty...all kinds of emotions came over him, and he simply threw himself into the man's arms, hooked his arms around his neck and cried bitterly.
During this time, the warm big palm kept patting his back gently, comforting him until he had vented all his grievances.
"Burp." After a long while, Mei Yang finally stopped crying and raised his head from the man's arms. He couldn't help sobbing, rubbing his eyes and saying, "Now, let's talk now."
"Okay." The Elf King agreed.
Escaping will not solve any problems. According to Pan, the mistake has been corrected and he will not continue to travel through time.
Sooner or later, he would have to talk things over with the Elf King.
"Wang... Daddy, I want to know, from your perspective, how do you view what happened between us? How have these events developed for you?"
Mei Yang's time is retrograde and there are no gaps. He needs to know how the relationship between the two develops from the perspective of the Elf King before he can make some decisions.
The Elf King thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I just sorted out my memories before you woke up. So listen to my version of the story that happened between us."
"You know, as Melida, I lived alone for many years. Then one day, you suddenly appeared before me, as if from out of the blue, and told me that you were my destined partner. Perhaps it was because you were so adorable and so much my style that I easily accepted your words. At that time, I could actually sense that you preferred my future self, so I could only try my best to do better, though, in the end, I still couldn't keep you."
"After you disappeared, my memory of you also disappeared. I happened to be on the Mother Tree at that time, so it was natural that when you left, I became the Elf King in your memory."
"Then there was that time in the sailing town. That time you told me again that you were my destined partner, and I fell in love with you all over again. Our story is a retrograde one. Once you disappeared, I and the elves who had seen you would immediately forget your existence. But the things you left behind always felt familiar to me."
"The third time, we spent a long time together. I guess you fell in love with me that time, right?"
"But I'm not. Mei Yang, unlike you, I've fallen in love with you every time, including last night when you suddenly appeared. I immediately remembered everything. I found that including the last time - the first time you appeared under the Elf Mother Tree, I sometimes looked at you and always felt very familiar. At that time, I also loved and cherished you. It's just that it seems that you are not..."
"I am! I am!" Mei Yang interrupted him anxiously, "I didn't just fall in love with you the time you helped me blow-dry my hair. I've liked you every time. It's just that time that I finally understood and dared to say it out loud!"
He was afraid that the Elf King would not believe him, so he hurriedly revealed his true feelings and confessed his love to the man he had admired for a long time.
Perhaps what the Elf King wanted was his frank and passionate look. A faint smile bloomed on the man's face that was like a snowy mountain, diluting the loneliness around him.
"I understand," he said. "I just want to know that you don't hate me as I am now. You know what? The time magic on you has disappeared, and you've been fixed to this moment. If you don't like me as I am now, I can't even send you back to the previous timeline to continue cultivating your relationship with me back then."
"Last night when you were asleep, I even thought about how much better everything would have been if you hadn't chosen to return to the present and stayed with Melida."
"I've been lonely for a long, long time."
"Fortunately, my life is long enough and I am not too old."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but hold up Mei Yang's dazed little face, and rubbed his straight nose against Mei Yang's cute nose tip affectionately.
Then she couldn't help but gently kiss the black-haired boy's lips, which were slightly opened in surprise.
"Ugh!" After realizing what was happening, Mei Yang covered his mouth in surprise, his face flushed and his eyes widened.
"Can't I kiss you?" asked the Elf King.
"Yes, I can. But, King..."
"Will you still call me king?"
"Melida?" Mei Yang called his name, then felt something strange about it. He wrinkled his nose and said, "I'd better call you daddy."
"Yes." The Elf King replied.
He thought daddy was an intimate term for a partner. After all, Mei Yang only called him that.
As long as they don't regret their partnership, that's fine.
The Elf King was in a very good mood, better than ever before, as if he had just recovered from a long-standing illness.
Every time Mei Yang disappeared, those memories disappeared along with him. Logically, the Elf King should not feel too sad.
But sometimes, the brain deceives us, but the heart does not.
His heart will remind him that you have lost a vital treasure. You must remember this painful feeling. When you see him next time, don't refuse him. Be nice to him and fall in love with him quickly.
The snow-capped mountains melt only for the believers.
At this moment, the Elf King, who usually had an expressionless face, couldn't help but put on a gentle smile because the long-lost treasure had returned to him again. It was a reflection of his immense inner satisfaction.
Mei Yang was stunned.
"Daddy, I told you." Mei Yang couldn't help but kiss his chin, then gently traced the shallow wrinkles at the corners of his eyes with his fingertips, and said, "I'm obsessed with you, obsessed with the wrinkles that may appear at the corners of your eyes."
"I'm completely obsessed with you."
