The royal palace on the mountaintop was brightly lit with candlelight. In the quiet study, a young man in a black and gold robe was earnestly handling government affairs. His handsome face looked a little pale under the candlelight.
Zhao Zhao stood quietly outside the door, gazing at the bright light. Time flew by, and the once mischievous cub had finally grown into the calm and responsible teenager he is today.
"How long are you going to look?" The dark eyes suddenly raised up, and Zhao Zhao came back to his senses.
In the dim candlelight, he stepped forward and approached the cold-tempered young man in front of the table: "Why aren't you resting yet?" He looked at his unusually pale face with indifferent eyes.
Ye had a blank expression on his face: "Aren't you accompanying Yue? Why are you still caring about me?"
He had long been accustomed to it. Whenever Yue appeared, Zhao Zhao would leave him behind to accompany Yue!
He was so angry!
Although he appeared calm on the outside, the anger in his heart was burning him to the point of losing his mind.
His mind was in a mess, when suddenly, a slightly cool hand rested on his wrist, blending with his body temperature.
Ye's body trembled, and he realized that the distance between him and Zhao Zhao had become very close without him realizing it.
He could even smell the cold fragrance coming from this person.
"Is the injury so serious?"
The cold voice brought his wandering thoughts back. Ye raised his eyes and saw Zhao Zhao looking at him with a very serious expression.
"Why don't you ask a wizard to take a look?"
The hand on her wrist suddenly loosened, and the cold fragrance disappeared.
Ye felt lost, it turned out that he was injured...
Zhao Zhao knew that Ye had beaten Yue severely, but only now realized that Ye was seriously injured by Yue's mental power.
"I'll go find the Second Elder," Zhao Zhao lowered his eyes slightly, and when he turned around hurriedly, he felt a pulling force on his wrist.
Ye laughed instead: "Are you concerned about my health or Master Feng's health?"
In the bright candlelight, the two men pulled at each other. Zhao Zhao met his angry eyes and was slightly stunned: "What's the difference between the two?"
"Of course!" Ye was furious and raised his voice: "Do you care about me or not?"
He still hasn't changed his habit of yelling at people when he's emotional.
Zhao Zhao's face turned cold because of his voice: "What are you arguing about? If I don't care about you, why would I come to you in the middle of the night?"
He shook his hand away, and the boy, who was half a head taller than him, suddenly stood up and hugged him tightly, pressing his body heavily on his.
Zhao Zhao couldn't bear the force and even took a few steps back as he held her.
The boy bent his body and buried his head in his shoulder: "I have been doubting recently. I thought you no longer cared about me and no longer liked me..." His voice was hoarse, sounding aggrieved and pitiful.
Zhao Zhao wanted to push his hand away but didn't use much force, so she just slowly placed it on his shoulder.
Hearing his accusation, I subconsciously patted his shoulder: "Why do you think so?"
Ye's fragile emotions were rarely exposed in front of him, so when Zhao Zhao faced him now, her heart couldn't help but soften.
"Because your eyes are always on Yue, and... since Yue woke up, you have almost always been with him." Ye accused: "You are partial, I hate you..." His temper is still the same as when he was a child.
Ye often said this to Zhao Zhao when he was a child and had a bad temper.
However, since he took on the important task of being the Phoenix Lord, he has become more and more mature, gradually becoming less dependent on Zhao Zhao, and no longer being unreasonable or throwing tantrums at any time.
The tall boy in his arms rubbed his shoulders like a big bird, raised his slender white hand, and patted Ye on the head.
He said, "I stayed with Yue only to teach him, but you have grown up to be excellent enough. I think you no longer need me."
"As for partiality, you shouldn't use this word on me." He is the elder, and Yue and Ye are the Phoenix Lords.
Zhao Zhao in this world is even more ninja-like than a ninja. Faced with two extremely noisy children, he suppresses his nature and stays by their side dutifully, believing that he has not failed in his responsibilities.
Zhao Zhao calmly pushed away the clinging boy and said, "Master Ye Feng, I will take you to treat your wound first."
"No!" Ye snorted coldly. Zhao Zhao seemed to be particularly gentle tonight, so he took advantage of the situation and said, "I'm angry. Can't you just coax me like before?"
Zhao Zhao:?
This kid Ye must have a memory disorder. Even when he was facing Ye as a cub, he hardly ever coaxed him.
Their eyes met, one was confused, the other was expectant.
In the end, the person who was expecting something was the first to look away.
His voice turned cold: "Get the summoning stone from Yue for me, and I will go find Bai Yu." The summoning stone has been in Yue's hands for half a month, and now it should belong to him.
As for why he asked Zhao Zhao to get it, he naturally had his own little thoughts.
"Summoning Stone?" Zhao Zhao remembered that this thing had not been used for decades. He originally thought that the stone was lost or forgotten by Yue and Ye.
Ye thought Zhao Zhao was unhappy, and immediately said anxiously: "Yue and I agreed that one of us would keep the summoning stone for a week, but now half a month has passed!" His eyes flashed, and he looked away from Zhao Zhao.
Zhao Zhao felt a little warm in her heart when she heard the agreement between the two.
After all, no one doesn't like people to appreciate the gifts they give.
"If you don't help me, I'll have to take it back!"
"OK."
Zhao Zhao compromised, and Ye's eyes lit up. He knew that what Zhao Zhao was most worried about was quarrels and fights between them.
Ye was so happy that he wanted to go forward and hug him, but Zhao Zhao stepped back.
"Master Ye Feng, go and see your wound. I will give you the stone tomorrow."
"Go to bed early."
He smiled at Ye, and Ye was dazed for a moment, not even knowing when Zhao Zhao left.
