Chapter 9: The Seal Is Released 1
I sighed softly and sat down in front of Yilan's bed. Looking at Yilan, who had always been domineering and barbaric but now seemed quiet and peaceful, I wished that time would stop at this moment.
Yilan's even breathing was like a lullaby, as if just looking at him quietly could give her a sweet dream.
I slowly reached out my hand and touched Yilan's face with my fingertips. Although he and Ino looked exactly the same, for some reason, they exuded completely different temperaments. Although Yilan was strong, he always made people want to pity him.
Maybe it was because my touch disturbed his sleep, Yilan slowly opened his eyes like Sleeping Beauty who had been sleeping for a long time.
"Did I bother you?" I asked with a smile.
I know that even if I really woke him up, Yilan wouldn't blame me, because he dotes on me more than anyone else.
"No, I seem to have slept for a long time!"
Yilan also forced a faint smile, gently stroked my cheek, and felt the warmth on my body.
"Yes! I've slept for a long time. Please take a look at me to see if I have aged or if I have any white hair." I winked playfully and deliberately moved my head towards him so that he could see if I really had white hair.
"Haha, there are no white hairs, but there are many wrinkles!" Yilan teased in a rare humorous way, which caused me to roll my eyes coquettishly.
He is the one who has wrinkles. He is a sacred beast that is thousands of years old, but his whole body is covered with wrinkles!
"Hateful!" I pouted and pointed at Yilan's eyebrows.
"Do you really hate me?" Hearing this, Yi Lan's face darkened, and her eyes, which were originally full of smiles, were instantly filled with helplessness. "You still decided to make me disappear, right?"
"No, don't talk nonsense!" I covered Yilan's mouth anxiously. I didn't want him to curse himself.
Yilan gently took my hand and looked at me lovingly.
"In fact, when I approached you at the beginning, I wanted to absorb your spiritual energy, because your spiritual energy can make me stronger, strong enough to devour Ino and take back everything that should belong to me. But, slowly, I found that I began to envy Ino, because no matter what he did, he could make you laugh. I felt that only I was qualified to enjoy all this, so I domineeringly ordered you not to approach him and not to treat him well. By the time I realized that I shouldn't have such feelings for a prey, you had already successfully occupied my heart. I found myself approaching you, no longer because I wanted to possess your spiritual power, but because I wanted to monopolize your smile, so that I could It's like seeing my shadow reflected in your eyes, I will be very satisfied. Maybe my heart has been occupied by your appearance, so I am destined to be your loyal servant in this life. You are right, wolves have many shortcomings, selfishness, greed, cruelty, bloodiness, but the only advantage of wolves is loyalty. Wolves are actually more loyal than dogs, because they will only recognize one master and one partner in their lives. As for you, I am willing to be your slave, even if it means sacrificing my life, as long as it is your decision, I am willing. So, even if you choose Ino in the end, I am willing to never appear again, as long as you are happy, I have no complaints. "
Every word Yilan said was like a sharp needle, piercing my heart. My vision had long been blurred, and I didn't know what to say to make Yilan have confidence in me, to make Yilan believe that I would protect him, because I myself didn't believe that I had the ability to do so. I actually wanted such a beautiful boy who loved and cared for me to disappear.
Yilan, whose face was as pale as paper, was like a guardian angel who had exhausted all his spiritual power to protect his beloved princess. His body gradually turned into snow-white feathers, and finally the feathers turned into ashes. Until the last moment, he just hoped that the princess would be happy.
"Wow, Yilan, I won't let you disappear. I don't want anyone to disappear!" I hugged Yilan and burst into tears.
Why do I feel like Yilan is saying his final goodbye to me? I feel like I'm really going to lose him!
"I won't disappear. Don't you humans also have a beautiful fairy tale? The little mermaid turned into foam in order to help the prince. I will just turn into air that you can't see. But no matter where you are, I will protect you!" Yilan smiled weakly, and stroked my hair gently with her big hand, comforting me who was crying hysterically.
"I don't want it. I don't want you to turn into air. I want you to stay with me forever! Do you still remember the time when I made a wish to the sun? I didn't want anything. I just wanted you to be happy forever! You said you would order the sun to fulfill my wish. How can you go back on your word?" I shook my head.
How could he disappear? He clearly ordered the sun to fulfill my wish!
"Haha, for you, I'll be happy no matter what I do! As long as I know that you are living well, I can't be happier!" Yilan smiled gently, with crystal tears in her eyes.
I bit my lip and shook my head vigorously. That's not the case. How could I be happy if I couldn't see him?
"Why don't you just let me disappear!" I don't know when, Ino woke up, and smiled weakly, looking at me and said, "Yilan is right, I was originally a dog evolved from the wolf clan to be loyal to the wolf king. Because of my special fate, I have occupied this body for thousands of years. It's time to return it to Yilan. I have to admit that Yilan is better at protecting Xiaoqian than I am. I can only act like a spoiled child and ask Xiaoqian to take care of me, but I can't make Xiaoqian happy at all."
"Stop talking, it's not like what you said! I won't be happy whether I lose Ino or Yilan. I don't want any of you to disappear, and I will never let anything happen to you."
I had already stopped crying and could only hold Ino tightly, as if if I held them tightly like this, they would not disappear.
Ino and Yilan said nothing more, just looked at me quietly. Ino's warm big hand slowly tightened, holding me in his arms, as if he wanted to pass on all his remaining warmth to me.
It suddenly started raining heavily outside, and the bean-sized raindrops hit the glass, like loud rock music.
