Chapter 5: Ilan's Wildness 3
"Xiao Qian..." A gentle voice sounded in my ears.
I opened my eyes blearily, and the person in front of me looked like a shadow reflected in the lake, swaying.
My consciousness slowly returned and the figure in front of me gradually became clearer.
"Yilan!" I stretched unconsciously and found that I had slept in Yilan's arms all night.
"Look!" Yilan pointed her finger forward and motioned me to look over there.
When I turned around, I was stunned.
Oh my god, we are on the top of the mountain.
I was a little confused. Were we at the top of the mountain from the beginning, or did Yilan take advantage of me sleeping and carry me here?
The dawn light gradually faded away, and the rising sun poked its head out from between the clouds like a naughty little girl, suddenly shining so brightly that I couldn't help but stretch out my hand to cover the bright red.
The sun rises slowly, shining on the mountain covered with a layer of clouds and mist. A breeze blows, and the clouds and mist disperse. The mountain peaks instantly put on a gorgeous dress, so dazzlingly beautiful.
"I want to make a wish!" I couldn't help but stand up from the grass, closed my eyes, and made a wish to the scorching sun.
I don’t want anything, I just want Yilan to be happy all her life and no longer suffer from pain and anger.
"Haha, you humans just like making wishes so much?" Yilan pulled me into her arms from behind, "Make a wish to a shooting star, make a wish to a firefly, make a wish to the sunrise."
"Hmph! You don't understand. Sometimes we make a wish not because it will definitely come true, but because of the yearning and prayer in our hearts. In fact, we are not speaking to the gods , but to ourselves." I pulled away from his arms awkwardly.
"Yes! Then, do you know what my wish is?" Yilan grabbed my shoulders and made me turn around to look at him. "My wish is very simple. I just hope that you can have me in your wish!"
Hearing this, I was shocked at first, and then I couldn't help laughing.
Yes, how could this domineering wolf king allow someone else to be in my wish?
"So conceited!" I frowned at Yilan in dissatisfaction. I just couldn't stand this arrogant guy being so cocky.
I slapped Yilan's hand away and turned back to admire the ever-changing scene.
"Alright!" Yilan shrugged indifferently, stretched, pointed at the red sun and ordered seriously, "Sun that submits to me, I now order you to help Xiaoqian realize her wish no matter what it is. Otherwise, I will destroy you, even if it means overthrowing day and night."
I looked at the overbearing Yi Lan with a smile on my face. Where did he get his confidence from? Wasn't he afraid that the sun would be unhappy and roast him?
But was it my illusion? The red sun actually hid in the clouds, revealing only half of its face , as if it was lowering its head and saying "yes, sir".
Yilan hugged me from behind and put her chin on my shoulder: "Xiao Qian, be my princess!"
I unconsciously tensed my body, startled by Yilan's sudden and affectionate confession.
"I know that stupid dog took advantage of you and confessed to you when you didn't want to see me. However, what he can give, I can give too, but what I can give, he can't give." Yilan said, slowly tightening his arms, as if he wanted to rub me into his body.
I was silent. It was true that I felt relaxed and comfortable with Yinuo because I liked him, but I didn't hate being with Yilan. After slowly understanding Yilan's temperament, I found that I didn't hate him either, and he also attracted me deeply. However, I had already promised Yinuo, so should I go back on my word and play two women at the same time? I am not such a bad girl!
But why was I wavering in my heart? Could it be that I was beginning to like Yilan too?
Oh my god, you greedy person!
I despised myself in my heart. How could I have such a shameful thought? I came here yesterday to distance myself from Yi Lan, why did it become like this now?
"But I have already promised him, I can't change my mind!" I lowered my head in embarrassment.
They are brothers, or brothers who don't seem to have a good relationship, and I don't want their relationship to be more strained because of me.
"Xiao Qian, I know that my strength may hurt you sometimes. In our wolf tribe, we have to fight bravely for what we want. As the wolf king, I am used to others surrendering. When I met you, I was jealous of your love for Ino, so I habitually snatched it in my own way, but I didn't know that this method scared you. I have actually been living in a dark and painful space, which you can't understand. Your appearance made me see the light and warmed my world. Ino has taken away everything from me. I once said that I would take it back, but now, I don't want anything, I just want you. I just want him to give you back to me!"
Seeing Yilan's deep eyes covered with a thin layer of mist, I couldn't help but reach out to warm his cheek.
I wanted to accept Yilan who was so lonely, and I wanted to protect him until we grew old, but Yinuo's innocent smile suddenly jumped out of my mind. I hurriedly withdrew my hand and turned around, not knowing how to face Yilan.
I really don't know how much pain these holy beasts went through after being sealed, and I don't understand how terrifying the dark and painful space that Yilan mentioned is. I only know that I like the life after they appeared. I like the innocent Ino and the wild and affectionate Yilan. In fact, the two of them are like the front and back of a mirror, one is as dazzling as the sun, the other is as deep as the moon, equally charming and fascinating, and equally illusory.
How nice it would be if they were one person!
However, you can't have your cake and eat it too. I can't be greedy and have the best of both worlds!
I lowered my head with a heavy heart and kicked the stones under my feet.
Now in my mind, the scenes of my interactions with Ino and Yilan are constantly changing like a kaleidoscope, and finally divided into two extremes. I am struggling with whether I should choose Ino or Yilan.
After Yilan made such a passionate confession, I could only lower my head in escape and say that I should go home.
If I don't come home for one night, I will definitely be punished by my serious and old-fashioned father to write a 3,000-word letter of apology!
I took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and prepared myself for a scolding from my dad, saying things like "girls should respect themselves" and "don't go out alone with bad classmates"...it would definitely be the same old teachings.
"Xiao Qian, you're back?" Mom came up to me with a smile and gave me a big hug.
"Mom!" I forced a smile.
My appearance is exactly like my mother's, but my mother exudes a friendly aura, while I am full of youthful vitality.
"Where's Dad?" I asked curiously, looking at the empty living room.
Logically speaking, he should have stayed to interrogate me before going back to work!
"He's at work!" Mom said gently, and brought me to the dining table, winking at me, "Mom saw everything last night! Is Xiao Qian in love? Is that boy your classmate? He looks as handsome as your father when he was young!"
I squinted my eyes and looked at the gossiping mother in front of me. The reason why my mother has always been very reasonable is because she has always kept a girlish heart. No matter what happens, she will have a lot of imagination.
But, mom, are you presbyopic? How can you describe Dad, who looks like a teacher from an ancient study, as "handsome"? Where do you get the confidence to compare him with a beautiful boy as good as Yilan?
"Don't worry, Mom and Dad said you went to Xixi's house to review your homework. Dad doesn't know anything!"
Mom raised an eyebrow, as if to make it clear that she was on my side.
"I just went to watch the sunrise with my classmates." I sighed, interrupting the unrealistic pictures in my mother's mind.
"And then?" Mom asked curiously.
"No!"
Was she still hoping for something to happen?
"Oh, okay then! Eat your breakfast quickly, you'll be late for school." Mom looked very disappointed and went to the kitchen.
"Mom..." I couldn't help but complain.
My thoughts are really confused, I really want to find someone to talk to!
"Ah?" Mom pounced on me.
Mom, how boring is the life of a housewife that makes you so eager to know my gossip? I seemed to see my mom sitting with a few other women, eating melon seeds and proudly talking about "my daughter's so and so".
"Why did you choose Dad back then? Don't you think he always has a poker face and is lifeless? Wouldn't you find it boring to spend your life with such a person?" I asked curiously.
"Girl, how much do you dislike your father? Why do you say that to him? After all, he is your biological father!" Mom glared at me unhappily.
Sometimes I am really curious about what it is about Dad that charms Mom. Every time Mom sees Dad, I seem to see crimson petals floating out of her eyes!
"Hmph! I don't even know if he even has me as his daughter in his eyes!" I raised my chin proudly.
As far as I can remember, my father's heart and eyes were only focused on business.
"You're talking nonsense! You can't imagine how much your father loves you. Do you know how much he has sacrificed to let you grow up without worries?" Mom said seriously, tears flashing in her eyes. "What attracts mom most about dad is his spirit of silent dedication. He will never tell you what he has done until one day, you find out that he has put a lot of thought into it. You will be moved and grateful to have him in your life, but he will still say lightly that these are what he should do. This may be the most precious sense of security that dad gives to mom!"
Although I don’t know what my mother is talking about, I understand one thing: for girls, that sense of security is the most important thing.
So, between Ino and Yilan, who makes me feel more secure?
Ino's loyalty, Yilan's wildness, the feelings they give me are so strong!
What should I do? Do I really have to be a bad girl who is fickle-minded?
How great it would be if Ino and Yilan were the same person!
