Chapter 478: Going Home (1/2)
”Jin, thank you.” Syni Su said after the episode in the stone hall ended. They went to stroll in a garden filled with pink plants, a place where she loved going the most.
She was utmost grateful for what Jin Rou did. After all, although her grandfather tried to step on him so many times, he didn't seek for revenge or anything for the sake of her.
”That's nothing. It's not worth thanking for.” Jin Rou smiled and answered. He wanted to give Syni Su and her dead mother face, that's why he didn't make a commotion during that time. After all, he went there to clarify things.
He looked at Syni Su, who was smiling and constantly chuckling while they were walking around the place. For some reason, he felt that the barrier which separated both of them had finally crumbled. But Jin Rou didn't want to rush it. So many had happened, and there's no reason to take things fast.
Just like this, Jin Rou was already satisfied. He couldn't ask for more.
Syni Su felt the abnormal glance of Jin Rou and couldn't help but think about it. He never had looked at her that way, a look filled with tenderness and carefulness. It was like he was holding her in his arms, afraid that he would fall her and break.
Thinking that Jin Rou must have fallen in love for her, Syni Su couldn't help but blush. But that expression only appeared in a split second. She didn't want Jin Rou to see it as it would tell everything to him.
”I'll be going back home.” Jin Rou said after a moment of silence, ”I have been away for a long time now, so I want to go home and stay.”
”You mean, you will no longer travel around the worlds?” Syni Su was surprised. She knew, since they were kids, how much Jin Rou dreamed about going and traveling in all places possible. He liked adventuring and discovering new places, meeting new people, and whatnot. Thus, this decision was quite a surprise to her.
”Well, I have already had enough of traveling around.” Jin Rou chuckled, ”I almost have already went to the places I want to go to. I've been away for so long, too. Perhaps, now is the time to take my position seriously. After all, I'm still the overlord of our universe.”
Indeed. Jin Rou ran away in the past because he wanted to go have an adventure around the world. But now, he made it happened and he learned many things. He felt like now was the right time to be a proper celestial king.
